// SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0 OR MIT //! The `Box<T>` type for heap allocation. //! //! [`Box<T>`], casually referred to as a 'box', provides the simplest form of //! heap allocation in Rust. Boxes provide ownership for this allocation, and //! drop their contents when they go out of scope. Boxes also ensure that they //! never allocate more than `isize::MAX` bytes. //! //! # Examples //! //! Move a value from the stack to the heap by creating a [`Box`]: //! //! ``` //! let val: u8 = 5; //! let boxed: Box<u8> = Box::new(val); //! ``` //! //! Move a value from a [`Box`] back to the stack by [dereferencing]: //! //! ``` //! let boxed: Box<u8> = Box::new(5); //! let val: u8 = *boxed; //! ``` //! //! Creating a recursive data structure: //! //! ``` //! #[derive(Debug)] //! enum List<T> { //! Cons(T, Box<List<T>>), //! Nil, //! } //! //! let list: List<i32> = List::Cons(1, Box::new(List::Cons(2, Box::new(List::Nil)))); //! println!("{list:?}"); //! ``` //! //! This will print `Cons(1, Cons(2, Nil))`. //! //! Recursive structures must be boxed, because if the definition of `Cons` //! looked like this: //! //! ```compile_fail,E0072 //! # enum List<T> { //! Cons(T, List<T>), //! # } //! ``` //! //! It wouldn't work. This is because the size of a `List` depends on how many //! elements are in the list, and so we don't know how much memory to allocate //! for a `Cons`. By introducing a [`Box<T>`], which has a defined size, we know how //! big `Cons` needs to be. //! //! # Memory layout //! //! For non-zero-sized values, a [`Box`] will use the [`Global`] allocator for //! its allocation. It is valid to convert both ways between a [`Box`] and a //! raw pointer allocated with the [`Global`] allocator, given that the //! [`Layout`] used with the allocator is correct for the type. More precisely, //! a `value: *mut T` that has been allocated with the [`Global`] allocator //! with `Layout::for_value(&*value)` may be converted into a box using //! [`Box::<T>::from_raw(value)`]. Conversely, the memory backing a `value: *mut //! T` obtained from [`Box::<T>::into_raw`] may be deallocated using the //! [`Global`] allocator with [`Layout::for_value(&*value)`]. //! //! For zero-sized values, the `Box` pointer still has to be [valid] for reads //! and writes and sufficiently aligned. In particular, casting any aligned //! non-zero integer literal to a raw pointer produces a valid pointer, but a //! pointer pointing into previously allocated memory that since got freed is //! not valid. The recommended way to build a Box to a ZST if `Box::new` cannot //! be used is to use [`ptr::NonNull::dangling`]. //! //! So long as `T: Sized`, a `Box<T>` is guaranteed to be represented //! as a single pointer and is also ABI-compatible with C pointers //! (i.e. the C type `T*`). This means that if you have extern "C" //! Rust functions that will be called from C, you can define those //! Rust functions using `Box<T>` types, and use `T*` as corresponding //! type on the C side. As an example, consider this C header which //! declares functions that create and destroy some kind of `Foo` //! value: //! //! ```c //! /* C header */ //! //! /* Returns ownership to the caller */ //! struct Foo* foo_new(void); //! //! /* Takes ownership from the caller; no-op when invoked with null */ //! void foo_delete(struct Foo*); //! ``` //! //! These two functions might be implemented in Rust as follows. Here, the //! `struct Foo*` type from C is translated to `Box<Foo>`, which captures //! the ownership constraints. Note also that the nullable argument to //! `foo_delete` is represented in Rust as `Option<Box<Foo>>`, since `Box<Foo>` //! cannot be null. //! //! ``` //! #[repr(C)] //! pub struct Foo; //! //! #[no_mangle] //! pub extern "C" fn foo_new() -> Box<Foo> { //! Box::new(Foo) //! } //! //! #[no_mangle] //! pub extern "C" fn foo_delete(_: Option<Box<Foo>>) {} //! ``` //! //! Even though `Box<T>` has the same representation and C ABI as a C pointer, //! this does not mean that you can convert an arbitrary `T*` into a `Box<T>` //! and expect things to work. `Box<T>` values will always be fully aligned, //! non-null pointers. Moreover, the destructor for `Box<T>` will attempt to //! free the value with the global allocator. In general, the best practice //! is to only use `Box<T>` for pointers that originated from the global //! allocator. //! //! **Important.** At least at present, you should avoid using //! `Box<T>` types for functions that are defined in C but invoked //! from Rust. In those cases, you should directly mirror the C types //! as closely as possible. Using types like `Box<T>` where the C //! definition is just using `T*` can lead to undefined behavior, as //! described in [rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines#198][ucg#198]. //! //! # Considerations for unsafe code //! //! **Warning: This section is not normative and is subject to change, possibly //! being relaxed in the future! It is a simplified summary of the rules //! currently implemented in the compiler.** //! //! The aliasing rules for `Box<T>` are the same as for `&mut T`. `Box<T>` //! asserts uniqueness over its content. Using raw pointers derived from a box //! after that box has been mutated through, moved or borrowed as `&mut T` //! is not allowed. For more guidance on working with box from unsafe code, see //!
