Most programming languages can really complicate things, especially with regard to unsafe memory access. The burden on you, the programmer, lies across two domains: understanding the modern machine and your language's pain-points. This book will teach you to how to manage program performance on modern machines and build fast, memory-safe, and concurrent software in Rust. It starts with the fundamentals of Rust and discusses machine architecture concepts. You will be taken through ways to measure and improve the performance of Rust code systematically and how to write collections with confidence. You will learn about the Sync and Send traits applied to threads, and coordinate thread execution with locks, atomic primitives, data-parallelism, and more.
The book will show you how to efficiently embed Rust in C++ code and explore the functionalities of various crates for multithreaded applications. It explores implementations in depth. You will know how a mutex works and build several yourself. You will master radically different approaches that exist in the ecosystem for structuring and managing high-scale systems.
By the end of the book, you will feel comfortable with designing safe, consistent, parallel, and high-performance applications in Rust.
Get to grips with modern software demands by learning the effective uses of Rust's powerful memory safety.About This BookLearn and improve the sequential performance characteristics of your softwareUnderstand the use of operating system processes in a high-scale concurrent systemLearn of the various coordination methods available in the Standard libraryWho This Book Is ForThis book is aimed at software engineers with a basic understanding of Rust who want to exploit the parallel and concurrent nature of modern computing environments, safely.What You Will LearnProbe your programs for performance and accuracy issuesCreate your own threading and multi-processing environment in RustUse coarse locks from Rust's Standard librarySolve common synchronization problems or avoid synchronization using atomic programmingBuild lock-free/wait-free structures in Rust and understand their implementations in the crates ecosystemLeverage Rust's memory model and type system to build safety properties into your parallel programsUnderstand the new features of the Rust programming language to ease the writing of parallel programsIn DetailMost programming languages can really complicate things, especially with regard to unsafe memory access.
