Trait VmPtr 

pub trait VmPtr: Copy {
    type Target;

    // Provided methods
    fn nullable(self) -> Option<Self> { ... }
    fn vm_read_uninit(self) -> VmResult<MaybeUninit<Self::Target>> { ... }
    fn vm_read(self) -> VmResult<Self::Target>
       where Self::Target: AnyBitPattern { ... }
}

A virtual memory pointer.

Required Associated Types

type Target

The type of data that the pointer points to.

Provided Methods

fn nullable(self) -> Option<Self>

Returns None if the pointer is null, otherwise returns Some(self).

fn vm_read_uninit(self) -> VmResult<MaybeUninit<Self::Target>>

Reads the value from this virtual memory pointer. In contrast to VmPtr::vm_read, this does not require that the value has to be initialized.

fn vm_read(self) -> VmResult<Self::Target>

where Self::Target: AnyBitPattern,

Reads the value from this virtual memory pointer.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
