This includes type definitions (e.g. `c_int`), constants -(e.g. `EINVAL`) as well as function headers (e.g. `malloc`). - -This crate does not strive to have any form of compatibility across platforms, -but rather it is simply a straight binding to the system libraries on the -platform in question. - -## Public API - -This crate exports all underlying platform types, functions, and constants under -the crate root, so all items are accessible as `libc::foo`. The types and values -of all the exported APIs match the platform that libc is compiled for. - -More detailed information about the design of this library can be found in its -[associated RFC][rfc]. - -[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1291-promote-libc.md - -## Adding an API - -Want to use an API which currently isn't bound in `libc`? It's quite easy to add -one! - -The internal structure of this crate is designed to minimize the number of -`#[cfg]` attributes in order to easily be able to add new items which apply -to all platforms in the future. As a result, the crate is organized -hierarchically based on platform. Each module has a number of `#[cfg]`'d -children, but only one is ever actually compiled. Each module then reexports all -the contents of its children. - -This means that for each platform that libc supports, the path from a -leaf module to the root will contain all bindings for the platform in question. -Consequently, this indicates where an API should be added! Adding an API at a -particular level in the hierarchy means that it is supported on all the child -platforms of that level. For example, when adding a Unix API it should be added -to `src/unix/mod.rs`, but when adding a Linux-only API it should be added to -`src/unix/notbsd/linux/mod.rs`. - -If you're not 100% sure at what level of the hierarchy an API should be added -at, fear not! This crate has CI support which tests any binding against all -platforms supported, so you'll see failures if an API is added at the wrong -level or has different signatures across platforms. - -With that in mind, the steps for adding a new API are: - -1. Determine where in the module hierarchy your API should be added. -2. Add the API. -3. Send a PR to this repo. -4. Wait for CI to pass, fixing errors. -5. Wait for a merge! - -### Test before you commit - -We have two automated tests running on [Travis](https://travis-ci.org/rust-lang/libc): - -1. [`libc-test`](https://github.com/alexcrichton/ctest) - - `cd libc-test && cargo run` - - Use the `skip_*()` functions in `build.rs` if you really need a workaround. -2.
