Crate alloc_madvise

alloc-madvise

Rust-aligned-allocations provides aligned memory allocation utilities for Rust.

This crate offers functionality to allocate and manage memory with specific alignment requirements. The main features include:

• Memory - A safe wrapper around aligned memory allocations
• AllocationError - Error type for memory allocation failures

Example

use alloc_madvise::{Memory, AllocationError};

fn main() -> Result<(), AllocationError> {
    // Allocate 1024 bytes aligned to 64 bytes
    const SIZE: usize = 1024;
    const SEQUENTIAL: bool = true;
    const CLEAR: bool = true;
    let memory = Memory::allocate(SIZE, SEQUENTIAL, CLEAR)?;
     
    // Use the allocated memory...
    assert_ne!(memory.as_ptr(), std::ptr::null_mut());
    assert_eq!((memory.as_ptr() as usize) % 64, 0);
    assert_eq!(memory.len(), SIZE);
    assert!(!memory.is_empty());
     
    // Memory is automatically freed when dropped
    Ok(())
}

Features

• ffi: Enables FFI bindings for C interoperability (disabled by default)
