spin-rs

Spin-based synchronization primitives.

This crate provides spin-based versions of the primitives in std::sync. 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 by @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 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.

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.

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

• 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 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 = [...] }
