std::runtime::posix::fs

Source: std/runtime/posix/fs.slk

This is the exact canonical documentation page for std::runtime::posix::fs.

Role#

std::runtime::posix::fs is an implementation-facing runtime module in the shipped std/** tree. It exists so higher-level stdlib surfaces can delegate platform or runtime-specific behavior without changing their public module names.

Canonical Context#

Use the following owning docs for the substantive API/design context for this module:

• runtime
• fs

Notes#

• The shipped source for this module is std/runtime/posix/fs.slk.
• The canonical module name is std::runtime::posix::fs.
• The shipped POSIX backend now exposes the stable raw-stat fill helpers used by std::runtime::fs::{stat,lstat,fstat} and therefore by std::fs::Stats, plus fstat_size for allocation-free descriptor size probes.
• It exposes a borrowed readdir(3) entry-fill helper for std::fs::Dir.next_view(), including stable directory-entry type codes when d_type is available.
• This page is intentionally implementation-oriented. Downstream users should usually start with the higher-level std module docs listed above unless they are working on the runtime layer itself.
