Why a container could not be read, or could not be trusted once it was read.

Every variant carries enough to put in a log line without going back to the file. An operator who gets one of these should be able to say what is wrong with the dataset without opening a hex editor, because the alternative is that they open a hex editor.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

NotAContainer

The file does not start with the container magic.

Fields

found: Vec<u8>

The first eight bytes of the file, or fewer if the file is shorter than that.

expected: Vec<u8>

What those bytes should have been.

Truncated

The file starts correctly but ends somewhere unexpected.

Fields

what: &'static str

Which part of the file ran out.

needed: u64

How many bytes that part needed.

available: u64

How many were there.

UnsupportedFormat

The container was written by a newer major version.

Fields

major: u16

The major version in the file.

minor: u16

The minor version in the file.

supported_major: u16

The major version this build understands.

Reserved

A reserved field was not zero.

Reserved fields are the only place a future version can put a change that older readers must not ignore, so an older reader has to refuse rather than carry on.

Fields

what: &'static str

Which part of the container the field is in.

SectionOutOfBounds

A section points somewhere that is not inside the payload area.

Fields

id: u32

Which section.

offset: u64

Where it claims to start.

end: u64

Where it claims to end, saturated at u64::MAX.

file_len: u64

How long the file actually is.

DuplicateSection

Two sections claim the same identifier.

Fields

id: u32

The repeated identifier.

MissingRecord(Tag)

A required footer record was missing.

RepeatedRecord(Tag)

A footer record appeared more times than it is allowed to.

UnsupportedRecord

A known footer record was written at a version this build does not read.

Fields

tag: Tag

Which record.

version: u16

The version on it.

DigestMismatch

A digest did not match the bytes it covers.

Fields

what: String

Which digest.

expected: String

What the container claims.

actual: String

What the bytes actually hash to.

Footer(Error)

The bytes inside the footer did not parse.

TooLarge

Something in the container is bigger than this build can address.

On a 64 bit host this cannot happen. It is here so that a 32 bit host gets a sentence instead of a panic.

Fields

what: &'static str

Which part of the container.

needed: u64

How many bytes it asked for.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Error

fn clone(&self) -> Error

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Error

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for Error

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

impl Eq for Error

impl Error for Error

fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)>

Returns the lower-level source of this error, if any.

fn description(&self) -> &str

👎Deprecated since 1.42.0:

use the Display impl or to_string()
