pub struct Writable<T: Clone + Copy + Debug + PartialEq + Eq + PartialOrd + Ord + Hash> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A type wrapper that indicates a register type is writable. The underlying register can be extracted, and the type wrapper can be built using an arbitrary register. Hence, this type-level wrapper is not strictly a guarantee. However, “casting” to a writable register is an explicit operation for which we can audit. Ordinarily, internal APIs in the compiler backend should take a Writable<Reg> whenever the register is written, and the usual, frictionless way to get one of these is to allocate a new temporary.

Implementations§

Explicitly construct a Writable<T> from a T. As noted in the documentation for Writable, this is not hidden or disallowed from the outside; anyone can perform the “cast”; but it is explicit so that we can audit the use sites.

Get the underlying register, which can be read.

Map the underlying register to another value or type.
