Variants

ImmBorrow

Data must be immutable and is aliasable.

UniqueImmBorrow

Data must be immutable but not aliasable. This kind of borrow cannot currently be expressed by the user and is used only in implicit closure bindings. It is needed when the closure is borrowing or mutating a mutable referent, e.g.:

let x: &mut isize = ...;
let y = || *x += 5;

If we were to try to translate this closure into a more explicit form, we’d encounter an error with the code as written:

struct Env { x: & &mut isize }
let x: &mut isize = ...;
let y = (&mut Env { &x }, fn_ptr);  // Closure is pair of env and fn
fn fn_ptr(env: &mut Env) { **env.x += 5; }

This is then illegal because you cannot mutate a &mut found in an aliasable location. To solve, you’d have to translate with an &mut borrow:

struct Env { x: &mut &mut isize }
let x: &mut isize = ...;
let y = (&mut Env { &mut x }, fn_ptr); // changed from &x to &mut x
fn fn_ptr(env: &mut Env) { **env.x += 5; }

Now the assignment to **env.x is legal, but creating a mutable pointer to x is not because x is not mutable. We could fix this by declaring x as let mut x. This is ok in user code, if awkward, but extra weird for closures, since the borrow is hidden.

So we introduce a “unique imm” borrow – the referent is immutable, but not aliasable. This solves the problem. For simplicity, we don’t give users the way to express this borrow, it’s just used when translating closures.

MutBorrow

Data is mutable and not aliasable.

Implementations

impl BorrowKind

pub fn from_mutbl(m: Mutability) -> BorrowKind

pub fn to_mutbl_lossy(self) -> Mutability

Returns a mutability m such that an &m T pointer could be used to obtain this borrow kind. Because borrow kinds are richer than mutabilities, we sometimes have to pick a mutability that is stronger than necessary so that it at least would permit the borrow in question.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for BorrowKind

fn clone(&self) -> BorrowKind

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for BorrowKind

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'tcx, __D: TyDecoder<'tcx>> Decodable<__D> for BorrowKind

fn decode(__decoder: &mut __D) -> Result<Self, <__D as Decoder>::Error>

impl<'tcx, __E: TyEncoder<'tcx>> Encodable<__E> for BorrowKind

fn encode(&self, __encoder: &mut __E) -> Result<(), <__E as Encoder>::Error>

impl<'__ctx> HashStable<StableHashingContext<'__ctx>> for BorrowKind

fn hash_stable(
    &self,
    __hcx: &mut StableHashingContext<'__ctx>,
    __hasher: &mut StableHasher
)

impl PartialEq<BorrowKind> for BorrowKind

fn eq(&self, other: &BorrowKind) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests for !=.

impl<'tcx> TypeFoldable<'tcx> for BorrowKind

fn super_fold_with<__F: TypeFolder<'tcx>>(self, __folder: &mut __F) -> Self

fn super_visit_with<__F: TypeVisitor<'tcx>>(
    &self,
    __folder: &mut __F
) -> ControlFlow<__F::BreakTy>

fn fold_with<F: TypeFolder<'tcx>>(self, folder: &mut F) -> Self

fn visit_with<V: TypeVisitor<'tcx>>(
    &self,
    visitor: &mut V
) -> ControlFlow<V::BreakTy>

fn has_vars_bound_at_or_above(&self, binder: DebruijnIndex) -> bool

Returns true if self has any late-bound regions that are either bound by binder or bound by some binder outside of binder. If binder is ty::INNERMOST, this indicates whether there are any late-bound regions that appear free.

fn has_vars_bound_above(&self, binder: DebruijnIndex) -> bool

Returns true if this self has any regions that escape binder (and hence are not bound by it).

fn has_escaping_bound_vars(&self) -> bool

fn definitely_has_type_flags(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>, flags: TypeFlags) -> bool

fn has_type_flags(&self, flags: TypeFlags) -> bool

fn has_projections(&self) -> bool

fn has_opaque_types(&self) -> bool

fn references_error(&self) -> bool

fn potentially_has_param_types_or_consts(&self) -> bool

fn definitely_has_param_types_or_consts(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

fn has_infer_regions(&self) -> bool

fn has_infer_types(&self) -> bool

fn has_infer_types_or_consts(&self) -> bool

fn needs_infer(&self) -> bool

fn has_placeholders(&self) -> bool

fn potentially_needs_subst(&self) -> bool

fn definitely_needs_subst(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

fn has_free_regions(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

“Free” regions in this context means that it has any region that is not (a) erased or (b) late-bound.

fn has_erased_regions(&self) -> bool

fn has_erasable_regions(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

True if there are any un-erased free regions.

fn is_known_global(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether this value definitely references only ‘global’ generic parameters that are the same regardless of what fn we are in. This is used for caching.

fn is_global(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

Indicates whether this value references only ‘global’ generic parameters that are the same regardless of what fn we are in. This is used for caching.

fn has_late_bound_regions(&self) -> bool

True if there are any late-bound regions

fn still_further_specializable(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether this value still has parameters/placeholders/inference variables which could be replaced later, in a way that would change the results of impl specialization.

Note: Most layout information is completely unstable and may even differ between compilations. The only exception is types with certain repr(...) attributes. Please see the Rust Reference’s “Type Layout” chapter for details on type layout guarantees.
