Because synchronization is done -through spinning, the primitives are suitable for use in `no_std` environments. - -Before deciding to use `spin`, we recommend reading -[this superb blog post](https://matklad.github.io/2020/01/02/spinlocks-considered-harmful.html) -by [@matklad](https://github.com/matklad/) that discusses the pros and cons of -spinlocks. If you have access to `std`, it's likely that the primitives in -`std::sync` will serve you better except in very specific circumstances. - -## Features - -- `Mutex`, `RwLock`, `Once`, `Lazy` and `Barrier` equivalents -- Support for `no_std` environments -- [`lock_api`](https://crates.io/crates/lock_api) compatibility -- Upgradeable `RwLock` guards -- Guards can be sent and shared between threads -- Guard leaking -- Ticket locks -- Different strategies for dealing with contention - -## Usage - -Include the following under the `[dependencies]` section in your `Cargo.toml` file. - -```toml -spin = "x.y" -``` - -## Example - -When calling `lock` on a `Mutex` you will get a guard value that provides access -to the data. When this guard is dropped, the mutex will become available again. - -```rust -extern crate spin; -use std::{sync::Arc, thread}; - -fn main() { - let counter = Arc::new(spin::Mutex::new(0)); - - let thread = thread::spawn({ - let counter = counter.clone(); - move || { - for _ in 0..100 { - *counter.lock() += 1; - } - } - }); - - for _ in 0..100 { - *counter.lock() += 1; - } - - thread.join().unwrap(); - - assert_eq!(*counter.lock(), 200); -} -``` - -## Feature flags - -The crate comes with a few feature flags that you may wish to use. - -- `mutex` enables the `Mutex` type. - -- `spin_mutex` enables the `SpinMutex` type. - -- `ticket_mutex` enables the `TicketMutex` type. - -- `use_ticket_mutex` switches to a ticket lock for the implementation of `Mutex`. This - is recommended only on targets for which ordinary spinning locks perform very badly - because it will change the implementation used by other crates that depend on `spin`. - -- `rwlock` enables the `RwLock` type. - -- `once` enables the `Once` type. - -- `lazy` enables the `Lazy` type. - -- `barrier` enables the `Barrier` type. - -- `lock_api` enables support for [`lock_api`](https://crates.io/crates/lock_api) - -- `std` enables support for thread yielding instead of spinning. - -- `portable_atomic` enables usage of the `portable-atomic` crate - to support platforms without native atomic operations (Cortex-M0, etc.). - The `portable_atomic_unsafe_assume_single_core` cfg or `critical-section` feature - of `portable-atomic` crate must also be set by the final binary crate. - - When using the cfg, this can be done by adapting the following snippet to the `.cargo/config` file: - ``` - [target.<target>] - rustflags = [ "--cfg", "portable_atomic_unsafe_assume_single_core" ] - ``` - Note that this cfg is unsafe by nature, and enabling it for multicore systems is unsound. - - When using the `critical-section` feature, you need to implement the critical-section - implementation that sound for your system by implementing an unsafe trait. - See [the documentation for the `portable-atomic` crate](https://docs.rs/portable-atomic/latest/portable_atomic/#optional-cfg) - for more information. - -## Remarks - -It is often desirable to have a lock shared between threads. Wrapping the lock in an -`std::sync::Arc` is route through which this might be achieved. - -Locks provide zero-overhead access to their data when accessed through a mutable -reference by using their `get_mut` methods. - -The behaviour of these lock is similar to their namesakes in `std::sync`. they -differ on the following: - -- Locks will not be poisoned in case of failure. -- Threads will not yield to the OS scheduler when encounter a lock that cannot be - accessed. Instead, they will 'spin' in a busy loop until the lock becomes available. - -Many of the feature flags listed above are enabled by default. If you're writing a -library, we recommend disabling those that you don't use to avoid increasing compilation -time for your crate's users. You can do this like so: - -``` -[dependencies] -spin = { version = "x.y", default-features = false, features = [...] } -``` - -## Minimum Safe Rust Version (MSRV) - -This crate is guaranteed to compile on a Minimum Safe Rust Version (MSRV) of 1.38.0 and above. -This version will not be changed without a minor version bump. - -## License - -`spin` is distributed under the MIT License, (See `LICENSE`). |
