  • Production grade databases in Rust

    Also, not to be too bad about a reputation fallacy, but I found the author to be flippant and disrespectful when good-faith unsoundness was pointed out in his crates: https://github.com/spacejam/rio/issues/30
  • Linear Types One-Pager
    2 projects | /r/rust | 29 Mar 2023
    In my previous post on linear types I spent quite a bit of time motivating linear types. For example the ergonomic rio io_uring library could be made sound if it could guarantee destructors are run. Or performing FFI with async C++ could be made more efficient if it could rely directly on destructors rather than having to involve an intermediate runtime for each call.
  • The Stigma Around Unsafe
    5 projects | /r/rust | 12 Oct 2022
    It's like cargo should have a way to mark a dependency as unsafe. That way, you could have a safe mmap crate as an unsafe dependency. Or something like rio which is deliberately unsound (but is fine if you abide by its rules through the entirety of the program)

    for completeness there is also rio, but:

    The author of sled[1], an embedded database in Rust which has a number of promising features, has also written parts of rio[2], an underlying pure Rust io_uring library, which is intended to become the core write path for sled. rio has support for files but also has a demo for TCP (on Linux 5.5 and later) and O_DIRECT.

    I tested rio recently as I had a Brilliant but Bad Idea™ involving file access and was pleasantly surprised by the API, as I have been with sled's.

    I'm excited for the experimentation in the Rust ecosystem and for such low level crates to handle the complex io_uring tasks (relatively) safely!
