Struct AlignedBuffer 

pub struct AlignedBuffer<T> { /* private fields */ }

A buffer with guaranteed SIMD-friendly alignment

This buffer ensures that data is aligned to the specified boundary, which is critical for efficient SIMD operations. It uses Rust’s global allocator with custom alignment.

Implementations

impl<T> AlignedBuffer<T>

pub fn new(capacity: usize, align: usize) -> Result<Self>

Create a new aligned buffer with the specified capacity and alignment

Arguments

• capacity - Number of elements to allocate
• align - Alignment in bytes (must be a power of 2)

Errors

Returns an error if:

• Alignment is not a power of 2
• Alignment is less than the natural alignment of T
• Memory allocation fails

pub fn zeros(capacity: usize, align: usize) -> Result<Self>

where T: Default + Copy,

Create a new aligned buffer filled with zeros

Arguments

• capacity - Number of elements to allocate
• align - Alignment in bytes (must be a power of 2)

Errors

Returns an error if allocation fails

pub const fn len(&self) -> usize

Get the number of elements in the buffer

pub const fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Check if the buffer is empty

pub const fn alignment(&self) -> usize

Get the alignment of the buffer

pub fn as_ptr(&self) -> *const T

Get a raw pointer to the buffer

pub fn as_mut_ptr(&mut self) -> *mut T

Get a mutable raw pointer to the buffer

pub fn as_slice(&self) -> &[T]

Get the buffer as a slice

pub fn as_mut_slice(&mut self) -> &mut [T]

Get the buffer as a mutable slice

pub fn copy_from_slice(&mut self, src: &[T]) -> Result<()>

where T: Copy,

Copy data from a slice into the buffer

Errors

Returns an error if the slice length doesn’t match the buffer capacity

pub fn strided_view(&self, stride: usize) -> Result<StridedView<'_, T>>

Create a strided view of the buffer

This is useful for accessing every nth element without copying data.

Arguments

• stride - Step size between elements

Errors

Returns an error if stride is 0
