local_static's Introduction

Local Static

One-time mutable references to your local static variables.

#[local_static]
fn main() {
    static mut FOO: u32 = 0;
    *FOO = 42;
}

Limitation

Functions with #[local_static] attribute can only be called once.

Goals

  • Safe &'static mut references to local static mut variables.
  • Support for #[link_section] attribute.
  • Similar limitation and errors as regular static mut.

Acknowledgements

This crate is a generalization of a similar transformation done by the #[entry] macro in the cortex_m_rt crate.

Related work

  • static-cell provides a wrapper type that gives a &'static mut T to its internals in a safe way.

local_static's Issues

Dynamic initialization

It might be possible to support some form of dynamic initialization. Because function can only be called once, initialization can be done inline when variable comes into scope.

Whitelist supported attributes

Currently all attributes on the static mut variables are allowed, this might result in some unsoundness.

Create a whitelist with known save attributes.
