Generalize IO Traits for `Arc<T>` where `&T: IoTrait` ACP: https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/755 Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/154046 Related: rust-lang/rust#94744 ## Description After experimenting with rust-lang/rust#155625, I noticed `Seek` and `SeekFrom` can almost be moved to `core::io`. Unfortunately, the implementation of `Seek` for `Arc<File>` is a blocker for such a move, since `Arc` is not a fundamental type. This PR attempts to resolve this potential blocker by replacing the implementation with a more general alternative. An internal trait `IoHandle` has been added which types can implement to opt-in to `Read`/`Write`/`Seek` implementations for `Arc<Self>` as long as `&Self` implements said trait. Note that `BufRead` is excluded as the signature for `fill_buf` would require returning from a temporary. Since this "blanket" implementation only applies to a single type which already implements the same traits, I believe this should have no user-facing impact. If this PR was merged, rust-lang/rust#134190 could be replaced with a 2 line PR: ```rust impl IoHandle for TcpStream {} impl IoHandle for UnixStream {} ``` Likewise for any other types, a table of which can be found [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/504#issuecomment-2539569736). This is out of scope for this PR to avoid the need for an ACP. --- ## Notes * See [this comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/154046#issuecomment-4303975612) for further details. * No AI tooling of any kind was used during the creation of this PR.
This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
