[PATCH v5 04/23] rust: add new `num` module with `PowerOfTwo` type

Thu Jun 12 14:01:32 UTC 2025


Introduce the `num` module, featuring the `PowerOfTwo` unsigned wrapper
that guarantees (at build-time or runtime) that a value is a power of
two.

Such a property is often useful to maintain. In the context of the
kernel, powers of two are often used to align addresses or sizes up and
down, or to create masks. These operations are provided by this type.

It is introduced to be first used by the nova-core driver.
