    While Mio will probably not implement uring in its current design, there's https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio-uring if you want to use io_uring in Rust.

    It's still in development, but the Tokio team seems intent on getting good io_uring support at least!

    As the README states, the Rust implementation requires a kernel newer than the one that shipped with Ubuntu 20.04 so I think it'll be a while before we'll see significant development among major libraries.

    Tokio supports io_uring (https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio-uring), so perhaps when it's mature and battle-tested, it'd be easier to transition to it if Cloudflare aren't using it already.

    I strongly recommend you to look into io-uring and use async executors that take advantages of it: - tokio-uring (not recommended as it is still undergoing development) - monoio - glommio
  • Stacked Futures and why they are impossible
    1 project | /r/rust | 8 Jun 2022
    This is my thinking as well. Specifically, I realized that if you don’t use tasks, but rather futures and join, than structured concurrency just works out (at the cost of less efficient poll). In a single-threaded/thread-per-core runtime, tasks could have the same semantics as futures. Somewhat elaborated here: https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio-uring/issues/81
  • How to use async Rust for non-IO tasks?
    2 projects | /r/rust | 20 Apr 2022
    There's a new API on Linux called io_uring that has performance benefits, but most executors don't use it yet, except executors meant specifically to harness the power of io_uring like tokio-uring and Glommio
  • Side effects of Tokio
    1 project | /r/rust | 19 Apr 2022
    Breaking it down a bit further- Rust's async is zero-cost, and there's no way to write faster equivalent code to the language construct in Rust (and presumably other LLVM languages). Tokio introduces abstractions over OS APIs (indirectly) and provides a runtime. The runtime isn't zero cost, but it is likely to be better optimized for "standard" situations than a homebrewed solution, and its primary competition is in the form of other large async runtimes. On the other hand, Tokio's IO routines are (AFAIK) about as well written as one can get with blocking OS APIs, and the only competitors in that space are projects like tokio-uring that use APIs more well suited for asynchronous usage.

  • Mun v0.4.0 released
    4 projects | /r/rust_gamedev | 13 Dec 2022
    For those of you who haven’t heard of Mun before, Mun is an embeddable programming language empowering creation through iteration. The idea to create Mun originated out of frustration with the Lua dynamic scripting language and a desire to have similar hot reloading functionality available in Rust. As such, it’s not a direct competitor with Rust, but instead is intended to be used with Rust (or C/C++) as a host/embedded language pairing. Actually, Mun is completely written in Rust, building on similar crates as rust-analyzer and rustc. Its key features include:
