#[repr(transparent)]
pub struct BorrowedFd<'fd> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A borrowed file descriptor.

This has a lifetime parameter to tie it to the lifetime of something that owns the file descriptor.

This uses repr(transparent) and has the representation of a host file descriptor, so it can be used in FFI in places where a file descriptor is passed as an argument, it is not captured or consumed, and it never has the value -1.

This type’s .to_owned() implementation returns another BorrowedFd rather than an OwnedFd. It just makes a trivial copy of the raw file descriptor, which is then borrowed under the same lifetime.

Implementations

Return a BorrowedFd holding the given raw file descriptor.

Safety

The resource pointed to by fd must remain open for the duration of the returned BorrowedFd, and it must not have the value -1.

Creates a new OwnedFd instance that shares the same underlying file description as the existing BorrowedFd instance.
