5 //! This file has two components: The raw work item API, and the safe work item API.
6 //!
7 //! One pattern that is used in both APIs is the `ID` const generic, which exists to allow a single
8 //! type to define multiple `work_struct` fields. This is done by choosing an id for each field,
9 //! and using that id to specify which field you wish to use. (The actual value doesn't matter, as
10 //! long as you use different values for different fields of the same struct.) Since these IDs are
11 //! generic, they are used only at compile-time, so they shouldn't exist in the final binary.
12 //!
13 //! # The raw API
14 //!
15 //! The raw API consists of the `RawWorkItem` trait, where the work item needs to provide an
16 //! arbitrary function that knows how to enqueue the work item. It should usually not be used
17 //! directly, but if you want to, you can use it without using the pieces from the safe API.
18 //!
19 //! # The safe API
20 //!
21 //! The safe API is used via the `Work` struct and `WorkItem` traits. Furthermore, it also includes
22 //! a trait called `WorkItemPointer`, which is usually not used directly by the user.
23 //!
24 //!  * The `Work` struct is the Rust wrapper for the C `work_struct` type.
25 //!  * The `WorkItem` trait is implemented for structs that can be enqueued to a workqueue.
26 //!  * The `WorkItemPointer` trait is implemented for the pointer type that points at a something
27 //!    that implements `WorkItem`.
