Enum rustc_middle::mir::interpret::Scalar[][src]

pub enum Scalar<Tag = AllocId> {
    Int(ScalarInt),
    Ptr(Pointer<Tag>, u8),
}
Expand description

A Scalar represents an immediate, primitive value existing outside of a memory::Allocation. It is in many ways like a small chunk of an Allocation, up to 16 bytes in size. Like a range of bytes in an Allocation, a Scalar can either represent the raw bytes of a simple value or a pointer into another Allocation

These variants would be private if there was a convenient way to achieve that in Rust. Do not match on a Scalar! Use the various to_* methods instead.

Variants

Int(ScalarInt)

The raw bytes of a simple value.

Tuple Fields of Int

0: ScalarInt
Ptr(Pointer<Tag>, u8)

A pointer into an Allocation. An Allocation in the memory module has a list of relocations, but a Scalar is only large enough to contain one, so we just represent the relocation and its associated offset together as a Pointer here.

We also store the size of the pointer, such that a Scalar always knows how big it is. The size is always the pointer size of the current target, but this is not information that we always have readily available.

Tuple Fields of Ptr

0: Pointer<Tag>1: u8

Implementations

Create a Scalar from a pointer with an Option<_> tag (where None represents a plain integer).

This is almost certainly not the method you want! You should dispatch on the type and use to_{u8,u16,...}/scalar_to_ptr to perform ptr-to-int / int-to-ptr casts as needed.

This method only exists for the benefit of low-level operations that truly need to treat the scalar in whatever form it is.

Fundamental scalar-to-int (cast) operation. Many convenience wrappers exist below, that you likely want to use instead.

Will perform ptr-to-int casts if needed and possible. If that fails, we know the offset is relative, so we return an “erased” Scalar (which is useful for error messages but not much else).

This throws UB (instead of ICEing) on a size mismatch since size mismatches can arise in Miri when someone declares a function that we shim (such as malloc) with a wrong type.

Converts the scalar to produce a u8. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce a u16. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce a u32. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce a u64. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce a u128. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce an i8. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce an i16. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce an i32. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce an i64. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

Converts the scalar to produce an i128. Fails if the scalar is a pointer.

This method turns the parameters of a DepNodeConstructor into an opaque Fingerprint to be used in DepNode. Not all DepNodeParams support being turned into a Fingerprint (they don’t need to if the corresponding DepNode is anonymous). Read more

This method tries to recover the query key from the given DepNode, something which is needed when forcing DepNodes during red-green evaluation. The query system will only call this method if fingerprint_style() is not FingerprintStyle::Opaque. It is always valid to return None here, in which case incremental compilation will treat the query as having changed instead of forcing it. Read more

Layout

Note: Unable to compute type layout, possibly due to this type having generic parameters. Layout can only be computed for concrete, fully-instantiated types.
