pub struct Choice(_);
Expand description

The Choice struct represents a choice for use in conditional assignment.

It is a wrapper around a u8, which should have the value either 1 (true) or 0 (false).

The conversion from u8 to Choice passes the value through an optimization barrier, as a best-effort attempt to prevent the compiler from inferring that the Choice value is a boolean. This strategy is based on Tim Maclean’s work on rust-timing-shield, which attempts to provide a more comprehensive approach for preventing software side-channels in Rust code.

The Choice struct implements operators for AND, OR, XOR, and NOT, to allow combining Choice values. These operations do not short-circuit.

Implementations§

source§

impl Choice

source

pub fn unwrap_u8(&self) -> u8

Unwrap the Choice wrapper to reveal the underlying u8.

Note

This function only exists as an escape hatch for the rare case where it’s not possible to use one of the subtle-provided trait impls.

To convert a Choice to a bool, use the From implementation instead.
