Module neli::types

Module containing various types used across the various netlink structures used in neli.

Design decisions

These structures are new types rather than type aliases in most cases to allow the internal representation to change without resulting in a breaking change.

Structs

Buffer	A buffer of bytes.
FlagBuffer	A buffer of flag constants.
GenlBuffer	A buffer of generic netlink attributes.
Iter	Immutable slice iterator
IterMut	Mutable slice iterator.
NlBuffer	A buffer of netlink messages.
PhantomData	Zero-sized type used to mark things that "act like" they own a T.
Range	A (half-open) range bounded inclusively below and exclusively above (start..end).
Ref	Wraps a borrowed reference to a value in a RefCell box. A wrapper type for an immutably borrowed value from a RefCell<T>.
RefCell	A mutable memory location with dynamically checked borrow rules
RefMut	A wrapper type for a mutably borrowed value from a RefCell<T>.
RtBuffer	A buffer of rtnetlink attributes.
SockBuffer	A buffer to hold data read from sockets
SockBufferRef	An immutable reference to the socket buffer.
SockBufferRefMut	A mutable reference to the socket buffer.

Traits

FromIterator

Conversion from an Iterator.

Type Definitions

DeBuffer	Type alias for a buffer to deserialize from.
SerBuffer	Type alias for a buffer to serialize into.
