std::sync

Module std::sync

Useful synchronization primitives.

This module contains useful safe and unsafe synchronization primitives. Most of the primitives in this module do not provide any sort of locking and/or blocking at all, but rather provide the necessary tools to build other types of concurrent primitives.

Modules

atomic	Atomic types
mpsc	Multi-producer, single-consumer FIFO queue communication primitives.

Structs

Arc	A thread-safe reference-counting pointer.
Barrier	A barrier enables multiple threads to synchronize the beginning of some computation.
BarrierWaitResult	A `BarrierWaitResult` is returned by `wait` when all threads in the `Barrier` have rendezvoused.
Condvar	A Condition Variable
Mutex	A mutual exclusion primitive useful for protecting shared data
MutexGuard	An RAII implementation of a "scoped lock" of a mutex. When this structure is dropped (falls out of scope), the lock will be unlocked.
Once	A synchronization primitive which can be used to run a one-time global initialization. Useful for one-time initialization for FFI or related functionality. This type can only be constructed with the `ONCE_INIT` value.
PoisonError	A type of error which can be returned whenever a lock is acquired.
RwLock	A reader-writer lock
RwLockReadGuard	RAII structure used to release the shared read access of a lock when dropped.
RwLockWriteGuard	RAII structure used to release the exclusive write access of a lock when dropped.
WaitTimeoutResult	A type indicating whether a timed wait on a condition variable returned due to a time out or not.
Weak	`Weak` is a version of `Arc` that holds a non-owning reference to the managed value. The value is accessed by calling `upgrade` on the `Weak` pointer, which returns an `Option<Arc<T>>`.
OnceState	[ Experimental ] State yielded to the `call_once_force` method which can be used to query whether the `Once` was previously poisoned or not.

Enums

TryLockError

An enumeration of possible errors which can occur while calling the try_lock method.

Constants

ONCE_INIT

Initialization value for static Once values.

Type Definitions

LockResult	A type alias for the result of a lock method which can be poisoned.
TryLockResult	A type alias for the result of a nonblocking locking method.
