Crate malloc_bind [−] [src]
Bindings for the C malloc
API to Rust allocators.
This crate provides a mechanism to construct a C allocator - an implementation of malloc
,
free
, and related functions - that is backed by a Rust allocator (an implementation of the
Alloc
trait).
In order to create bindings, two things must be provided: an implementation of the Alloc
trait, and an implementation of the LayoutFinder
trait (defined in this crate). Since the C
API does not provide size or alignment on free
, but the Rust Alloc
API requires both size
and alignment on dealloc
, a mapping must be maintained between allocated objects and those
objects' size and alignment. The LayoutFinder
provides this functionality.
