pub struct VolatileArrayRef<'a, T, B = ()> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A memory location that supports volatile access to an array of elements of type T.

Examples

let mut v = [5u32; 1];
let v_ref = unsafe { VolatileArrayRef::new(&mut v[0] as *mut u32 as *mut u8, v.len()) };

assert_eq!(v[0], 5);
assert_eq!(v_ref.load(0), 5);
v_ref.store(0, 500);
assert_eq!(v[0], 500);

Implementations

Creates a VolatileArrayRef to an array of elements of type T.

Safety

To use this safely, the caller must guarantee that the memory at addr is big enough for nelem values of type T and is available for the duration of the lifetime of the new VolatileRef. The caller must also guarantee that all other users of the given chunk of memory are using volatile accesses.

Creates a VolatileArrayRef to an array of elements of type T, using the provided bitmap object for dirty page tracking.

Safety

To use this safely, the caller must guarantee that the memory at addr is big enough for nelem values of type T and is available for the duration of the lifetime of the new VolatileRef. The caller must also guarantee that all other users of the given chunk of memory are using volatile accesses.

Returns true if this array is empty.

Examples
let v_array = unsafe { VolatileArrayRef::<u32>::new(0 as *mut _, 0) };
assert!(v_array.is_empty());

Returns the number of elements in the array.

Examples
assert_eq!(v_array.len(), 1);

Returns the size of T.

Examples
let v_ref = unsafe { VolatileArrayRef::<u32>::new(0 as *mut _, 0) };
assert_eq!(v_ref.element_size(), size_of::<u32>() as usize);

Returns a pointer to the underlying memory. Mutable accesses performed using the resulting pointer are not automatically accounted for by the dirty bitmap tracking functionality.

Borrows the inner BitmapSlice.

Converts this to a VolatileSlice with the same size and address.

Does a volatile read of the element at index.

Panics

Panics if index is less than the number of elements of the array to which &self points.

Does a volatile read of the element at index.

Does a volatile write of the element at index.

Copies as many elements of type T as possible from this array to buf.

Copies self.len() or buf.len() times the size of T bytes, whichever is smaller, to buf. The copy happens from smallest to largest address in T sized chunks using volatile reads.

Examples
let mut v = [0u8; 32];
let v_ref = unsafe { VolatileArrayRef::new(&mut v[0] as *mut u8, v.len()) };

let mut buf = [5u8; 16];
v_ref.copy_to(&mut buf[..]);
for &v in &buf[..] {
    assert_eq!(v, 0);
}

Copies as many bytes as possible from this slice to the provided slice.

The copies happen in an undefined order.

Examples
let mut v = [0u8; 32];
let v_ref = unsafe { VolatileArrayRef::<u8>::new(&mut v[0] as *mut u8, v.len()) };
let mut buf = [5u8; 16];
let v_ref2 = unsafe { VolatileArrayRef::<u8>::new(&mut buf[0] as *mut u8, buf.len()) };

v_ref.copy_to_volatile_slice(v_ref2.to_slice());
for &v in &buf[..] {
    assert_eq!(v, 0);
}

Copies as many elements of type T as possible from buf to this slice.

Copies self.len() or buf.len() times the size of T bytes, whichever is smaller, to this slice’s memory. The copy happens from smallest to largest address in T sized chunks using volatile writes.

Examples
let mut v = [0u8; 32];
let v_ref = unsafe { VolatileArrayRef::<u8>::new(&mut v[0] as *mut u8, v.len()) };

let buf = [5u8; 64];
v_ref.copy_from(&buf[..]);
for &val in &v[..] {
    assert_eq!(5u8, val);
}
