pub struct MappedMutexGuard<'a, R: RawMutex, T: ?Sized> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

An RAII mutex guard returned by MutexGuard::map, which can point to a subfield of the protected data.

The main difference between MappedMutexGuard and MutexGuard is that the former doesn’t support temporarily unlocking and re-locking, since that could introduce soundness issues if the locked object is modified by another thread.

Implementations

Makes a new MappedMutexGuard for a component of the locked data.

This operation cannot fail as the MappedMutexGuard passed in already locked the mutex.

This is an associated function that needs to be used as MappedMutexGuard::map(...). A method would interfere with methods of the same name on the contents of the locked data.

Attempts to make a new MappedMutexGuard for a component of the locked data. The original guard is returned if the closure returns None.

This is an associated function that needs to be used as MappedMutexGuard::try_map(...). A method would interfere with methods of the same name on the contents of the locked data.

Unlocks the mutex using a fair unlock protocol.

By default, mutexes are unfair and allow the current thread to re-lock the mutex before another has the chance to acquire the lock, even if that thread has been blocked on the mutex for a long time. This is the default because it allows much higher throughput as it avoids forcing a context switch on every mutex unlock. This can result in one thread acquiring a mutex many more times than other threads.

However in some cases it can be beneficial to ensure fairness by forcing the lock to pass on to a waiting thread if there is one. This is done by using this method instead of dropping the MutexGuard normally.
