Overview

Rust isn't just another programming language; it's a paradigm shift for system development. Engineered for speed and safety, Rust empowers you to achieve the low-level control of languages like C and C++ without their notorious memory safety pitfalls. Discover how Rust's unique ownership and borrowing system, combined with its powerful concurrency model and zero-cost abstractions, makes it the ideal choice for crafting high-performance, reliable system software for today's demanding environments. What's Inside: This book meticulously unpacks the essentials of Rust system programming. You'll gain, in-depth understanding of: Rust's memory management: Ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes explained with clarity and practical application. Fundamental data structures optimized for system-level needs. Robust error handling strategies using Result and custom error types. Direct interaction with the operating system: System calls, file system operations, process management, and basic networking. Harnessing concurrency and parallelism with threads, message passing, and async/await for maximum performance. Navigating the complexities of shared-state concurrency with mutexes and atomic types. Exploring the intricacies of low-level I/O and hardware interaction, including unsafe Rust and memory-mapped I/O. Essential techniques for testing and verifying the correctness and reliability of your system software. Insightful case studies and real-world examples demonstrating Rust in action across various system software domains. Considerations for performance optimization, profiling, memory management, and writing portable, platform-aware code.
