Trait KernelLoader 

pub trait KernelLoader {
    // Required method
    fn load<F, M: GuestMemoryBackend>(
        guest_mem: &M,
        kernel_offset: Option<GuestAddress>,
        kernel_image: &mut F,
        highmem_start_address: Option<GuestAddress>,
    ) -> Result<KernelLoaderResult>
       where F: Read + ReadVolatile + Seek;
}

Trait that specifies kernel image loading support.

Required Methods

fn load<F, M: GuestMemoryBackend>( guest_mem: &M, kernel_offset: Option<GuestAddress>, kernel_image: &mut F, highmem_start_address: Option<GuestAddress>, ) -> Result<KernelLoaderResult>

where F: Read + ReadVolatile + Seek,

How to load a specific kernel image format into the guest memory.

Arguments

• guest_mem: GuestMemoryBackend to load the kernel in.
• kernel_offset: Usage varies between implementations.
• kernel_image: Kernel image to be loaded.
• highmem_start_address: Address where high memory starts.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
