Struct rustix::ioctl::patterns::Updater

pub struct Updater<'a, Opcode, Value> {
    value: &'a mut Value,
    _opcode: PhantomData<Opcode>,
}

Implements an “updater” pattern for ioctls.

The ioctl takes a reference to a struct that it reads its input from, then writes output to the same struct.

Fields

value: &'a mut Value

Reference to input/output data.

_opcode: PhantomData<Opcode>

The opcode.

Implementations

impl<'a, Opcode: CompileTimeOpcode, Value> Updater<'a, Opcode, Value>

pub unsafe fn new(value: &'a mut Value) -> Self

Create a new pointer updater-style ioctl object.

Safety

• Opcode must provide a valid opcode.
• For this opcode, Value must be the type that the kernel expects to get.

Trait Implementations

impl<'a, Opcode: CompileTimeOpcode, T> Ioctl for Updater<'a, Opcode, T>

type Output = ()

The type of the output data.

const IS_MUTATING: bool = true

Does the ioctl mutate any data in the userspace?

const OPCODE: Opcode = Opcode::OPCODE

The opcode used by this ioctl command.

fn as_ptr(&mut self) -> *mut c_void

Get a pointer to the data to be passed to the ioctl command.

unsafe fn output_from_ptr(_output: IoctlOutput, _ptr: *mut c_void) -> Result<()>

Cast the output data to the correct type.
