| /// Creates an anonymous pipe. |
| /// |
| /// # Behavior |
| /// |
| /// A pipe is a one-way data channel provided by the OS, which works across processes. A pipe is |
| /// typically used to communicate between two or more separate processes, as there are better, |
| /// faster ways to communicate within a single process. |
| /// |
| /// In particular: |
| /// |
| /// * A read on a [`PipeReader`] blocks until the pipe is non-empty. |
| /// * A write on a [`PipeWriter`] blocks when the pipe is full. |
| /// * When all copies of a [`PipeWriter`] are closed, a read on the corresponding [`PipeReader`] |
| /// returns EOF. |
| /// * [`PipeWriter`] can be shared, and multiple processes or threads can write to it at once, but |
| /// writes (above a target-specific threshold) may have their data interleaved. |
| /// * [`PipeReader`] can be shared, and multiple processes or threads can read it at once. Any |
| /// given byte will only get consumed by one reader. There are no guarantees about data |
| /// interleaving. |
| /// * Portable applications cannot assume any atomicity of messages larger than a single byte. |
| /// |
| /// # Platform-specific behavior |
| /// |
| /// This function currently corresponds to the `pipe` function on Unix and the |
| /// `CreatePipe` function on Windows. |
| /// |
| /// Note that this [may change in the future][changes]. |
| /// |
| /// # Capacity |
| /// |
| /// Pipe capacity is platform dependent. To quote the Linux [man page]: |
| /// |
| /// > Different implementations have different limits for the pipe capacity. Applications should |
| /// > not rely on a particular capacity: an application should be designed so that a reading process |
| /// > consumes data as soon as it is available, so that a writing process does not remain blocked. |
| /// |
| /// # Example |
| /// |
| /// ```no_run |
| /// # #[cfg(miri)] fn main() {} |
| /// # #[cfg(not(miri))] |
| /// # fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { |
| /// use std::io::{Read, Write, pipe}; |
| /// use std::process::Command; |
| /// let (ping_reader, mut ping_writer) = pipe()?; |
| /// let (mut pong_reader, pong_writer) = pipe()?; |
| /// |
| /// // Spawn a child process that echoes its input. |
| /// let mut echo_command = Command::new("cat"); |
| /// echo_command.stdin(ping_reader); |
| /// echo_command.stdout(pong_writer); |
| /// let mut echo_child = echo_command.spawn()?; |
| /// |
| /// // Send input to the child process. Note that because we're writing all the input before we |
| /// // read any output, this could deadlock if the child's input and output pipe buffers both |
| /// // filled up. Those buffers are usually at least a few KB, so "hello" is fine, but for longer |
| /// // inputs we'd need to read and write at the same time, e.g. using threads. |
| /// ping_writer.write_all(b"hello")?; |
| /// |
| /// // `cat` exits when it reads EOF from stdin, but that can't happen while any ping writer |
| /// // remains open. We need to drop our ping writer, or read_to_string will deadlock below. |
| /// drop(ping_writer); |
| /// |
| /// // The pong reader can't report EOF while any pong writer remains open. Our Command object is |
| /// // holding a pong writer, and again read_to_string will deadlock if we don't drop it. |
| /// drop(echo_command); |
| /// |
| /// let mut buf = String::new(); |
| /// // Block until `cat` closes its stdout (a pong writer). |
| /// pong_reader.read_to_string(&mut buf)?; |
| /// assert_eq!(&buf, "hello"); |
| /// |
| /// // At this point we know `cat` has exited, but we still need to wait to clean up the "zombie". |
| /// echo_child.wait()?; |
| /// # Ok(()) |
