A bunch of thoughts/questions:

- You have the pub functions to create ioctl numbers, but it looks like
  most drivers just do this in the C uapi headers instead and then use the
  direct number from the bindings? I wonder whether we shouldn't just use
  that as standard way, since in the end we do need the C headers for
  userspace to use the ioctls/structs. Or could we generate the headers
  from rust?

- More type safety would be nice. You have the one for device, but not yet
  for DrmFile. At least if I read the examples in asahi/vgem right. Also
  the FIXME for how to make sure you generate the table for the right kind
  of driver would be nice to fix.

- Type safety against the size of the struct an ioctl number is great!

- I wonder whether we could adjust the type according to _IOR/W/RW, i.e.
  if you have W then your ioctl function is Result<Struct>, if not then
  Result<()> since it's just errno, and you get the paramater only when
  you have R set. We had in the past confusions where people got this
  wrong and wondered why their parameters don't make it to userspace.

- There's also the question of drm_ioctl() zero-extending the ioctl
  parameter struct both ways (i.e. kernel kernel or newer userspace). I
  think trying to encode that with Some() is overkill, but maybe worth a
  thought.

- It would be _really_ great if rust ioctl abstractions enforce
  https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/process/botching-up-ioctls.html at
  the type level, i.e. everything naturally aligned, no gaps, all that
  stuff. This would also hold for get/put_user and all these things (I
  didn't look into that stuff yet in the drivers when you pull in entire
  arrays).

Cheers, Daniel
