Modules

• alloc
  Memory functionality that needs a refactor.
• unix
  Linux implementation for memory mapping abstractions.

Structs

• MemoryError

Enums

• SparseMappingError

Traits

• AsMappableRef
  An object that can be mapped into a SparseMapping.

Functions

• initialize_try_copy
  Must be called before using try_copy on Unix platforms.
• try_compare_exchange^⚠
  Atomically swaps the value at dest with new when *dest is current, using a sequentially-consistent memory ordering.
• try_compare_exchange_ref^⚠
  Atomically swaps the value at dest with new when *dest is current, using a sequentially-consistent memory ordering.
• try_copy^⚠
  Copies count elements from src to dest. src and dest may overlap. Fails on access violation/SIGSEGV. Note that on case of failure, some of the bytes (even partial elements) may already have been copied.
• try_read_volatile^⚠
  Reads the value at src treating the pointer as a volatile access.
• try_write_bytes^⚠
  Writes count bytes of the value val to dest. Fails on access violation/SIGSEGV. Note that on case of failure, some of the bytes (even partial elements) may already have been written.
• try_write_volatile^⚠
  Writes value at dest treating the pointer as a volatile access.
