	When build the kernel using the llvm-18.1.3-rust-1.85.0-x86_64 with ARCH=arm64, the following symbols are generated: $nm vmlinux \| grep ' _R'.*Page \| rustfilt ffff8000805b6f98 T <kernel::page::Page>::alloc_page ffff8000805b715c T <kernel::page::Page>::fill_zero_raw ffff8000805b720c T <kernel::page::Page>::copy_from_user_slice_raw ffff8000805b6fb4 T <kernel::page::Page>::read_raw ffff8000805b7088 T <kernel::page::Page>::write_raw ffff8000805b72fc T <kernel::page::Page as core::ops::drop::Drop>::drop These Rust symbols(alloc_page and drop) are trivial wrappers around the C functions alloc_pages and __free_pages. It doesn't make sense to go through a trivial wrapper for these functions, so mark them inline.

	Doctests in `page.rs` contained a helper function `dox` which acted as a wrapper for using the `?` operator. However, this is not needed because doctests are implicitly wrapped in function see [1].

2024-10-21	rust: page: add Rust version of PAGE_ALIGN	Alice Ryhl
	This is a useful for helper for working with indices into buffers that consist of several pages. I forgot to include it when I added PAGE_SIZE and PAGE_MASK for the same purpose in commit fc6e66f4696b ("rust: add abstraction for `struct page`").

2024-07-08	rust: add abstraction for `struct page`	Alice Ryhl
	Adds a new struct called `Page` that wraps a pointer to `struct page`. This struct is assumed to hold ownership over the page, so that Rust code can allocate and manage pages directly. The page type has various methods for reading and writing into the page. These methods will temporarily map the page to allow the operation. All of these methods use a helper that takes an offset and length, performs bounds checks, and returns a pointer to the given offset in the page. This patch only adds support for pages of order zero, as that is all Rust Binder needs. However, it is written to make it easy to add support for higher-order pages in the future. To do that, you would add a const generic parameter to `Page` that specifies the order. Most of the methods do not need to be adjusted, as the logic for dealing with mapping multiple pages at once can be isolated to just the `with_pointer_into_page` method. Rust Binder needs to manage pages directly as that is how transactions are delivered: Each process has an mmap'd region for incoming transactions. When an incoming transaction arrives, the Binder driver will choose a region in the mmap, allocate and map the relevant pages manually, and copy the incoming transaction directly into the page. This architecture allows the driver to copy transactions directly from the address space of one process to another, without an intermediate copy to a kernel buffer. This code is based on Wedson's page abstractions from the old rust branch, but it has been modified by Alice by removing the incomplete support for higher-order pages, by introducing the `with_*` helpers to consolidate the bounds checking logic into a single place, and various other changes.
