pub struct VolatileCell<T> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

VolatileCell provides a wrapper around unsafe volatile pointer reads and writes. This is particularly useful for accessing microcontroller registers by (unsafely) casting a pointer to the register into a VolatileCell.

use tock_cells::volatile_cell::VolatileCell;
let myptr: *const usize = 0xdeadbeef as *const usize;
let myregister: &VolatileCell<usize> = unsafe { core::mem::transmute(myptr) };

Implementations§

source§

impl<T> VolatileCell<T>

source

pub const fn new(value: T) -> VolatileCell<T>

Creates a new VolatileCell containing the given value

source

pub fn get(&self) -> T
where T: Copy,

Performs a memory read and returns a copy of the value represented by the cell.

Side-Effects

get always performs a memory read on the underlying location. If this location is a memory-mapped I/O register, the side-effects of performing the read are register-specific.

Examples
use tock_cells::volatile_cell::VolatileCell;

let vc = VolatileCell::new(5);
let five = vc.get();
source

pub fn set(&self, value: T)
where T: Copy,

Performs a memory write with the provided value.

Side-Effects

set always performs a memory write on the underlying location. If this location is a memory-mapped I/O register, the side-effects of performing the write are register-specific.

Examples
use tock_cells::volatile_cell::VolatileCell;

let vc = VolatileCell::new(123);
vc.set(432);
