[PATCH 2/2] gpu: nova-core: use kernel lossless integer conversion module

Alexandre Courbot <[email protected]> Mon, 27 Jul 2026 19:15:15 +0900
Newsgroups dev.linux.lists.nova-gpu,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel,org.kernel.vger.rust-for-linux
Message-ID <[email protected]>
The `kernel` crate now features a copy of our lossless integer
conversion routines. Switch to the kernel version and remove our own.

-/// Extension trait providing guaranteed lossless cast to `Self` from `T`.
-///
-/// The standard library's `From` implementations do not cover conversions that are not portable or
-/// future-proof. For instance, even though it is safe today, `From<usize>` is not implemented for
-/// [`u64`] because of the possibility to support larger-than-64bit architectures in the future.
-///
-/// The workaround is to either deal with the error handling of [`TryFrom`] for an operation that
-/// technically cannot fail, or to use the `as` keyword, which can silently strip data if the
-/// destination type is smaller than the source.
-///
-/// Both options are hardly acceptable for the kernel. It is also a much more architecture
-/// dependent environment, supporting only 32 and 64 bit architectures, with some modules
-/// explicitly depending on a specific bus width that could greatly benefit from infallible
-/// conversion operations.
-///
-/// Thus this extension trait that provides, for the architecture the kernel is built for, safe
-/// conversion between types for which such cast is lossless.
-///
-/// In other words, this trait is implemented if, for the current build target and with `t: T`, the
-/// `t as Self` operation is completely lossless.
-///
-/// Prefer this over the `as` keyword to ensure no lossy casts are performed.
-///
-/// If you need to perform a conversion in `const` context, use [`u64_as_usize`], [`u32_as_usize`],
-/// [`usize_as_u64`], etc.
-///
-/// # Examples
-///
-/// ```
-/// use crate::num::FromSafeCast;
-///
-/// assert_eq!(usize::from_safe_cast(0xf00u32), 0xf00u32 as usize);
