Module rustc_metadata::fs

Constants

• METADATA_FILENAME

Functions

• copy_to_stdout
• emit_wrapper_file
  We use a temp directory here to avoid races between concurrent rustc processes, such as builds in the same directory using the same filename for metadata while building an .rlib (stomping over one another), or writing an .rmeta into a directory being searched for extern crate (observing an incomplete file). The returned path is the temporary file containing the complete metadata.
• encode_and_write_metadata
• non_durable_rename
  This function attempts to bypass the auto_da_alloc heuristic implemented by some filesystems such as btrfs and ext4. When renaming over a file that already exists then they will “helpfully” write back the source file before committing the rename in case a developer forgot some of the fsyncs in the open/write/fsync(file)/rename/fsync(dir) dance for atomic file updates.
