This crate provides miscellaneous tools for concurrent programming:
|
|
|
|
#### Atomics
|
|
|
|
* [`AtomicCell`], a thread-safe mutable memory location.<sup>(no_std)</sup>
|
|
* [`AtomicConsume`], for reading from primitive atomic types with "consume" ordering.<sup>(no_std)</sup>
|
|
|
|
#### Thread synchronization
|
|
|
|
* [`Parker`], a thread parking primitive.
|
|
* [`ShardedLock`], a sharded reader-writer lock with fast concurrent reads.
|
|
* [`WaitGroup`], for synchronizing the beginning or end of some computation.
|
|
|
|
#### Utilities
|
|
|
|
* [`Backoff`], for exponential backoff in spin loops.<sup>(no_std)</sup>
|
|
* [`CachePadded`], for padding and aligning a value to the length of a cache line.<sup>(no_std)</sup>
|
|
* [`scope`], for spawning threads that borrow local variables from the stack.
|
|
|
|
*Features marked with <sup>(no_std)</sup> can be used in `no_std` environments.*<br/>

## Usage
|
|
|
|
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
crossbeam-utils = "0.8"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Compatibility
|
|
|
|
Crossbeam Utils supports stable Rust releases going back at least six months,
|
|
and every time the minimum supported Rust version is increased, a new minor
|
|
version is released. Currently, the minimum supported Rust version is 1.60.
