This is an experiment to switch away from Cstruct to Bstruct (bytes-backed Cstruct). The main issue is that the bytes are in the OCaml heap but we have to ensure they don't move. I started playing around with an allocator (
Uring.Slab
) which allocates a big bytes area upfront and the carves it up as the user requests slices (returned asBstruct.t
). For this to work properly theUring.Slab
implementation needs a few more tricky features:Opening this PR in case other people want to have a play around. Note this will only work with OCaml 5+ and is related to ocaml-multicore/eio#140
