From 313c4281bc9dfa98d76a71b16a684af1c52e7751 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wedson Almeida Filho Date: Tue, 11 Apr 2023 02:45:39 -0300 Subject: rust: add basic `Task` It is an abstraction for C's `struct task_struct`. It implements `AlwaysRefCounted`, so the refcount of the wrapped object is managed safely on the Rust side.
