21/// The kernel's [`Box`] type -- a heap allocation for a single value of type `T`.
22///
23/// This is the kernel's version of the Rust stdlib's `Box`. There are several differences,
24/// for example no `noalias` attribute is emitted and partially moving out of a `Box` is not
25/// supported. There are also several API differences, e.g. `Box` always requires an [`Allocator`]
26/// implementation to be passed as generic, page [`Flags`] when allocating memory and all functions
27/// that may allocate memory are fallible.
28///
29/// `Box` works with any of the kernel's allocators, e.g. [`Kmalloc`], [`Vmalloc`] or [`KVmalloc`].
30/// There are aliases for `Box` with these allocators ([`KBox`], [`VBox`], [`KVBox`]).
31///
32/// When dropping a [`Box`], the value is also dropped and the heap memory is automatically freed.
33///
34/// # Examples
35///
36/// ```
37/// let b = KBox::<u64>::new(24_u64, GFP_KERNEL)?;
38///
39/// assert_eq!(*b, 24_u64);
40/// # Ok::<(), Error>(())
41/// ```
42///
43/// ```
44/// # use kernel::bindings;
45/// const SIZE: usize = bindings::KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE as usize + 1;
46/// struct Huge([u8; SIZE]);
47///
48/// assert!(KBox::<Huge>::new_uninit(GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOWARN).is_err());
49/// ```
50///
51/// ```
52/// # use kernel::bindings;
53/// const SIZE: usize = bindings::KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE as usize + 1;
54/// struct Huge([u8; SIZE]);
55///
56/// assert!(KVBox::<Huge>::new_uninit(GFP_KERNEL).is_ok());
57/// ```
58///
59/// # Invariants
60///
61/// `self.0` is always properly aligned and either points to memory allocated with `A` or, for
62/// zero-sized types, is a dangling, well aligned pointer.
