+//! A kernel spinlock.
+//!
+//! This module allows Rust code to use the kernel's `spinlock_t`.
+
+use crate::bindings;
+
+/// Creates a [`SpinLock`] initialiser with the given name and a newly-created lock class.
+///
+/// It uses the name if one is given, otherwise it generates one based on the file name and line
+/// number.
+#[macro_export]
+macro_rules! new_spinlock {
+ ($inner:expr $(, $name:literal)? $(,)?) => {
+ $crate::sync::SpinLock::new(
+ $inner, $crate::optional_name!($($name)?), $crate::static_lock_class!())
+ };

+
+/// A spinlock.
+///
+/// Exposes the kernel's [`spinlock_t`]. When multiple CPUs attempt to lock the same spinlock, only
+/// one at a time is allowed to progress, the others will block (spinning) until the spinlock is
+/// unlocked, at which point another CPU will be allowed to make progress.
+///
+/// Instances of [`SpinLock`] need a lock class and to be pinned. The recommended way to create such
+/// instances is with the [`pin_init`](crate::pin_init) and [`new_spinlock`] macros.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// The following example shows how to declare, allocate and initialise a struct (`Example`) that
+/// contains an inner struct (`Inner`) that is protected by a spinlock.
+///
+/// ```
+/// use kernel::{init::InPlaceInit, init::PinInit, new_spinlock, pin_init, sync::SpinLock};
+///
+/// struct Inner {
+/// a: u32,
+/// b: u32,
+/// }
+///
+/// #[pin_data]
+/// struct Example {
+/// c: u32,
+/// #[pin]
+/// d: SpinLock<Inner>,
+/// }
+///
+/// impl Example {
+/// fn new() -> impl PinInit<Self> {
+/// pin_init!(Self {
+/// c: 10,
+/// d <- new_spinlock!(Inner { a: 20, b: 30 }),
+/// })
+/// }
+/// }
+///
+/// // Allocate a boxed `Example`.
+/// let e = Box::pin_init(Example::new())?;
+/// assert_eq!(e.c, 10);
+/// assert_eq!(e.d.lock().a, 20);
+/// assert_eq!(e.d.lock().b, 30);
+/// ```
+///
+/// The following example shows how to use interior mutability to modify the contents of a struct
+/// protected by a spinlock despite only having a shared reference:
+///
+/// ```
+/// use kernel::sync::SpinLock;
+///
+/// struct Example {
+/// a: u32,
+/// b: u32,
+/// }
+///
+/// fn example(m: &SpinLock<Example>) {
+/// let mut guard = m.lock();
+/// guard.a += 10;
+/// guard.b += 20;
+/// }
+/// ```
+///
+/// [`spinlock_t`]: ../../../../include/linux/spinlock.h
+pub type SpinLock<T> = super::Lock<T, SpinLockBackend>;
+
+/// A kernel `spinlock_t` lock backend.
+pub struct SpinLockBackend;
+
+// SAFETY: The underlying kernel `spinlock_t` object ensures mutual exclusion. `relock` uses the
+// default implementation that always calls the same locking method.
+unsafe impl super::Backend for SpinLockBackend {
+ type State = bindings::spinlock_t;
+ type GuardState = ();

+ unsafe fn init(
+ ptr: *mut Self::State,
+ name: *const core::ffi::c_char,

+ unsafe { bindings::spin_lock(ptr) }
+ }
+
