pub struct VClock(SmallVec<[u32; 4]>);
Expand description

A vector clock for detecting data-races, this is conceptually a map from a vector index (and thus a thread id) to a timestamp. The compare operations require that the invariant that the last element in the internal timestamp slice must not be a 0, hence all zero vector clocks are always represented by the empty slice; and allows for the implementation of compare operations to short circuit the calculation and return the correct result faster, also this means that there is only one unique valid length for each set of vector clock values and hence the PartialEq and Eq derivations are correct.

Implementations§

Create a new vector-clock containing all zeros except for a value at the given index

Load the internal timestamp slice in the vector clock

Get a mutable slice to the internal vector with minimum min_len elements, to preserve invariants this vector must modify the min_len-1 nth element to a non-zero value

Increment the vector clock at a known index this will panic if the vector index overflows

Set the element at the current index of the vector

Set the vector to the all-zero vector

Return if this vector is the all-zero vector

Layout§

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.
