It's quite easy to add -one! - -The internal structure of this crate is designed to minimize the number of -`#[cfg]` attributes in order to easily be able to add new items which apply -to all platforms in the future. As a result, the crate is organized -hierarchically based on platform. Each module has a number of `#[cfg]`'d -children, but only one is ever actually compiled. Each module then reexports all -the contents of its children. - -This means that for each platform that libc supports, the path from a -leaf module to the root will contain all bindings for the platform in question. -Consequently, this indicates where an API should be added! Adding an API at a -particular level in the hierarchy means that it is supported on all the child -platforms of that level. For example, when adding a Unix API it should be added -to `src/unix/mod.rs`, but when adding a Linux-only API it should be added to -`src/unix/notbsd/linux/mod.rs`. - -If you're not 100% sure at what level of the hierarchy an API should be added -at, fear not! This crate has CI support which tests any binding against all -platforms supported, so you'll see failures if an API is added at the wrong -level or has different signatures across platforms. - -With that in mind, the steps for adding a new API are: - -1. Determine where in the module hierarchy your API should be added. -2. Add the API. -3. Send a PR to this repo. -4. Wait for CI to pass, fixing errors. -5. Wait for a merge! - -### Test before you commit - -We have two automated tests running on [Travis](https://travis-ci.org/rust-lang/libc): - -1. [`libc-test`](https://github.com/alexcrichton/ctest) - - `cd libc-test && cargo test` - - Use the `skip_*()` functions in `build.rs` if you really need a workaround. -2. Style checker - - `rustc ci/style.rs && ./style src` - -### Releasing your change to crates.io - -Now that you've done the amazing job of landing your new API or your new -platform in this crate, the next step is to get that sweet, sweet usage from -crates.io! The only next step is to bump the version of libc and then publish -it. If you'd like to get a release out ASAP you can follow these steps: - -1. Update the version number in `Cargo.toml`, you'll just be bumping the patch - version number. -2. Run `cargo update` to regenerate the lockfile to encode your version bump in - the lock file. You may pull in some other updated dependencies, that's ok. -3. Send a PR to this repository. It should [look like this][example], but it'd - also be nice to fill out the description with a small rationale for the - release (any rationale is ok though!) -4. Once merged the release will be tagged and published by one of the libc crate - maintainers. - -[example]: https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/pull/583 - -## Platforms and Documentation - -The following platforms are currently tested and have documentation available: - -Tested: - * [`i686-pc-windows-msvc`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/i686-pc-windows-msvc/libc/) - * [`x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-pc-windows-msvc/libc/) - (Windows) - * [`i686-pc-windows-gnu`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/i686-pc-windows-gnu/libc/) - * [`x86_64-pc-windows-gnu`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-pc-windows-gnu/libc/) - * [`i686-apple-darwin`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/i686-apple-darwin/libc/) - * [`x86_64-apple-darwin`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-apple-darwin/libc/) - (OSX) - * `i386-apple-ios` - * `x86_64-apple-ios` - * [`i686-unknown-linux-gnu`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/libc/) - * [`x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/libc/) - (Linux) - * [`x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-linux-musl/libc/) - (Linux MUSL) - * [`aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/libc/) - (Linux) - * `aarch64-unknown-linux-musl` - (Linux MUSL) - * [`sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu/libc/) - (Linux) - * [`mips-unknown-linux-gnu`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/mips-unknown-linux-gnu/libc/) - * [`arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf/libc/) - * [`arm-linux-androideabi`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/arm-linux-androideabi/libc/) - (Android) - * [`x86_64-unknown-freebsd`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-freebsd/libc/) - * [`x86_64-unknown-openbsd`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-openbsd/libc/) - * [`x86_64-rumprun-netbsd`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-netbsd/libc/) - -The following may be supported, but are not guaranteed to always work: - - * `i686-unknown-freebsd` - * [`x86_64-unknown-bitrig`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-bitrig/libc/) - * [`x86_64-unknown-dragonfly`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-dragonfly/libc/) - * `i686-unknown-haiku` - * `x86_64-unknown-haiku` - * [`x86_64-unknown-netbsd`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-unknown-netbsd/libc/) - * [`x86_64-sun-solaris`](https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/x86_64-sun-solaris/libc/) +[Travis-CI]: https://travis-ci.com/rust-lang/libc +[Travis-CI Status]: https://travis-ci.com/rust-lang/libc.svg?branch=master +[Appveyor]: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/rust-lang-libs/libc +[Appveyor Status]: https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/github/rust-lang/libc?svg=true +[Cirrus-CI]: https://cirrus-ci.com/github/rust-lang/libc +[Cirrus-CI Status]: https://api.cirrus-ci.com/github/rust-lang/libc.svg +[crates.io]: https://crates.io/crates/libc +[Latest Version]: https://img.shields.io/crates/v/libc.svg +[Documentation]: https://docs.rs/libc/badge.svg +[docs.rs]: https://docs.rs/libc +[License]: https://img.shields.io/crates/l/libc.svg +[docs.master]: https://rust-lang.github.io/libc/#platform-specific-documentation |
