Ownership in Rust is an engineering decision about who owns data, who may read it, and how long references stay valid. Using borrowing rules to shape APIs removes use-after-free and dangling pointers at compile time.
Carbon's experimental pointer and reference model aims to make C++ interoperability memory-safe without wrapper overhead. This architecture note examines the trust boundary, operational checks, and failure modes.
Carbon aims to solve the 'rewrite' problem by providing bidirectional interoperability with C++, allowing for incremental migration without the overhead of traditional glue code.
Learn how Rust eliminates data races and use-after-free errors without a garbage collector using its unique ownership and borrowing system.
Step-by-step guide to enabling ARMv8.5-A Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) in synchronous mode on Linux: hardware/kernel prerequisites, compilation flags, runtime prctl() enablement, verification via SEGV_MTEERR faults, and phased deployment from async CI to synchronous staging.
A diagnostic guide to solving Rust borrow checker errors E0502 and E0503, featuring a step-by-step check process, disjoint slice mutation examples, and redesign signals.
Rust's borrow checker reads like a pedantic design reviewer who works for free. A worked move-versus-borrow example shows what it's actually catching — and when to reach for Rc and RefCell instead.
ARM64's Memory Tagging Extension catches out-of-bounds and use-after-free bugs in hardware. Here's how it works, how to verify it's actually enabled, and how to choose between sync and async modes.
An architecture note outlining the requirements, minimal design, trust boundaries, operational checks, failure modes, and evolution triggers for Carbon’s checked pointer feature.
