Jeff Olson 8769409612 rt: adding rust_uv_* binding for kernel malloc and free'ing :/ I need these in the context of doing various malloc/free operations for libuv structs that need to live in the heap, because of API workflow (there's no stack to put them in). This has cropped up several times when impl'ing the high-level API for things like timers, but I've decided to take the plunge and use this approach for the net::tcp module. Technically, this can be avoided by spawning a new task that contains the needed memory structures on its stack and then having it block for the duration of the time we need that memory to be valid (this is what I did in std::timer). Exposing this API provides a much lower overhead way to address the issue, albeit with safety concerns. The main mitigation policy should be to use malloc/free with libuv handles only when the handles, are then associated with a resource or class-with-dtor. So we have a finite lifetime for the object and can gaurantee a free(), barring a runtime crash (in which case you have bigger problems!)		2012-05-22 22:29:16 -07:00

README.txt

This is preliminary version of the Rust compiler, libraries and tools

Source layout:

rustc/             The self-hosted compiler

libcore/           The core library (imported and linked by default)
libstd/            The standard library (slightly more peripheral code)
librustsyntax/     The Rust parser and pretty-printer

rt/                The runtime system
rt/rust_*.cpp      - The majority of the runtime services
rt/isaac           - The PRNG used for pseudo-random choices in the runtime
rt/bigint          - The bigint library used for the 'big' type
rt/uthash          - Small hashtable-and-list library for C, used in runtime
rt/sync            - Concurrency utils
rt/util            - Small utility classes for the runtime.
