Module shadow_rs::host::descriptor

Linux file descriptors and file descriptions (equivalent to Linux struct files).

Modules

• descriptor_table
• epoll
• eventfd
• listener
  Types for emitting and subscribing to File events.
• pipe
• shared_buf
  A buffer for files that need to share a buffer with other files. Example use-cases are pipes and unix sockets. This buffer supports notifying files when readers or writers are added or removed.
• socket
• timerfd

Structs

• CountedLegacyFileRef
  Represents a counted reference to a legacy file object. Will decrement the legacy file’s ref count when dropped.
• Descriptor
  A file descriptor that reference an open file. Also contains flags that change the behaviour of this file descriptor.
• FileMode
  These are flags that should generally not change (analagous to the Linux filp->f_mode). Since the plugin will never see these values and they’re not exposed by the kernel, we don’t match the kernel FMODE_ values here.
• FileSignals
  File-related signals that listeners can watch for.
• FileState
  Flags representing the state of a file. Listeners can subscribe to state changes using FileRefMut::add_listener (or similar methods on SocketRefMut, Pipe, etc).
• FileStatus
  These are flags that can potentially be changed from the plugin (analagous to the Linux filp->f_flags status flags). Not all O_ flags are valid here. For example file access mode flags (ex: O_RDWR) are stored elsewhere, and file creation flags (ex: O_CREAT) are not stored anywhere. Many of these can be represented in different ways, for example: O_NONBLOCK, SOCK_NONBLOCK, EFD_NONBLOCK, GRND_NONBLOCK, etc, and not all have the same value.
• LegacyFileCounter
  Used to track how many descriptors are open for a LegacyFile.
• OpenFile
  Represents a POSIX file description, or a Linux struct file.

Enums

• CompatFile
  A compatibility wrapper around an OpenFile or LegacyFileCounter.
• File
  A wrapper for any type of file object.
• FileRef
  Wraps an immutably borrowed File. Created from File::borrow or File::try_borrow.
• FileRefMut
  Wraps a mutably borrowed File. Created from File::borrow_mut or File::try_borrow_mut.
