I agree that'd be nice. There are existing references to items in `core::ffi` scattered around (e.g. in rust/kernel/drm/file.rs); it would be good to clean all those up together with CStr provided we have some ability to lint against new occurrences. I'll leave this as-is for now since this series has already churned quite a lot, and the cleanup can be a reasonable first task for someone. > > Either way, for the whole series: > Reviewed-by: Alice Ryhl <[email protected]> Thanks! I'll send the rebase on rc3 momentarily. Tamir
