Struct PhaserCriticalSection

pub struct PhaserCriticalSection { /* private fields */ }

Guard struct that represents a “writer critical section” for a WriterReaderPhaser.

PhaserCriticalSection is a scope-based guard to signal the beginning and end of a “writer critical section” to the phaser. Upon calling writer_critical_section, the phaser atomically increments a counter, and when the returned PhaserCriticalSection drops, the drop call atomically increments another counter. On platforms with atomic increment instructions, this should result in wait-free synchronization.

Example

{
    let _guard = phaser.writer_critical_section();
    // perform writes
} // _guard drops, signaling the end of the section

Trait Implementations

impl Drop for PhaserCriticalSection

Upon drop, a PhaserCriticalSection will signal its parent WriterReaderPhaser that the critical section has ended.

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.

Layout

Note: Most layout information is completely unstable and may even differ between compilations. The only exception is types with certain repr(...) attributes. Please see the Rust Reference's “Type Layout” chapter for details on type layout guarantees.
