Trait disk::ToAsyncDisk

pub trait ToAsyncDisk: AsRawDescriptors + DiskGetLen + Send {
    // Required method
    fn to_async_disk(
        self: Box<Self>,
        ex: &Executor
    ) -> Result<Box<dyn AsyncDisk>>;
}

A DiskFile that can be converted for asychronous access.

Required Methods

fn to_async_disk(self: Box<Self>, ex: &Executor) -> Result<Box<dyn AsyncDisk>>

Convert a boxed self in to a box-wrapped implementaiton of AsyncDisk. Used to convert a standard disk image to an async disk image. This conversion and the inverse are needed so that the Send DiskImage can be given to the block thread where it is converted to a non-Send AsyncDisk. The AsyncDisk can then be converted back and returned to the main device thread if the block device is destroyed or reset.
