Struct Kernel 

pub struct Kernel { /* private fields */ }

The Oxide micro-kernel.

Owns the MessageBus, ModuleManager and StateRegistry and exposes them as cheap-to-clone handles. Cloning the kernel itself is also cheap and produces a handle pointing at the same underlying state.

Implementations

impl Kernel

pub async fn in_memory() -> Result<Self>

Build a kernel backed by an in-memory state registry. Intended for development, testing, and the bootstrap CLI.

pub async fn with_registry(path: &str) -> Result<Self>

Build a kernel backed by an on-disk state registry at path.

pub fn bus(&self) -> &MessageBus

Handle to the message bus.

pub fn modules(&self) -> &ModuleManager

Handle to the module manager.

pub fn registry(&self) -> &StateRegistry

Handle to the global state registry.

impl Kernel

pub async fn register_module_from_manifest( &self, path: &Path, ) -> Result<ResolvedManifest>

Register a module described by a module.json manifest with the kernel’s state registry.

path may be the manifest file or its parent directory. The module is recorded in ModuleState::Loaded. Starting the underlying binary is the responsibility of a future process supervisor.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Kernel

fn clone(&self) -> Kernel

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Kernel

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result
