pub struct Alignment(_);
ptr_alignment_type
)Expand description
A type storing a usize
which is a power of two, and thus
represents a possible alignment in the rust abstract machine.
Note that particularly large alignments, while representable in this type, are likely not to be supported by actual allocators and linkers.
Implementations§
source§impl Alignment
impl Alignment
sourcepub const MIN: Alignment = Self(AlignmentEnum::_Align1Shl0)
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_alignment_type
)
pub const MIN: Alignment = Self(AlignmentEnum::_Align1Shl0)
ptr_alignment_type
)The smallest possible alignment, 1.
All addresses are always aligned at least this much.
Examples
#![feature(ptr_alignment_type)]
use std::ptr::Alignment;
assert_eq!(Alignment::MIN.as_usize(), 1);
sourcepub const fn of<T>() -> Alignment
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_alignment_type
)
pub const fn of<T>() -> Alignment
ptr_alignment_type
)Returns the alignment for a type.
This provides the same numerical value as mem::align_of
,
but in an Alignment
instead of a usize
.
sourcepub const fn new(align: usize) -> Option<Alignment>
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_alignment_type
)
pub const fn new(align: usize) -> Option<Alignment>
ptr_alignment_type
)Creates an Alignment
from a usize
, or returns None
if it’s
not a power of two.
Note that 0
is not a power of two, nor a valid alignment.
const: unstable · sourcepub unsafe fn new_unchecked(align: usize) -> Alignment
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_alignment_type
)
pub unsafe fn new_unchecked(align: usize) -> Alignment
ptr_alignment_type
)Creates an Alignment
from a power-of-two usize
.
Safety
align
must be a power of two.
Equivalently, it must be 1 << exp
for some exp
in 0..usize::BITS
.
It must not be zero.
const: unstable · sourcepub fn as_usize(self) -> usize
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_alignment_type
)
pub fn as_usize(self) -> usize
ptr_alignment_type
)Returns the alignment as a usize
sourcepub const fn as_nonzero(self) -> NonZeroUsize
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_alignment_type
)
pub const fn as_nonzero(self) -> NonZeroUsize
ptr_alignment_type
)Returns the alignment as a NonZeroUsize
sourcepub fn log2(self) -> u32
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_alignment_type
)
pub fn log2(self) -> u32
ptr_alignment_type
)Returns the base-2 logarithm of the alignment.
This is always exact, as self
represents a power of two.
Examples
#![feature(ptr_alignment_type)]
use std::ptr::Alignment;
assert_eq!(Alignment::of::<u8>().log2(), 0);
assert_eq!(Alignment::new(1024).unwrap().log2(), 10);
