functions now operate on a distinct type,nix::mqueue::MqdT
. Accessors take this type by reference, not by value. (#1639)- Removed
SigSet::extend
in favor of<SigSet as Extend<Signal>>::extend
. Because of this change, you now needuse std::iter::Extend
to callextend
on aSigSet

, are now marked as#[non_exhaustive]
. (#1474) - Many more functions, mostly contructors, are now
const
. (#1476) (#1492) sys::event::KEvent::filter
now returns aResult
instead of being infalliable. The only cases where it will now return an error are cases where it previously would've had undefined behavior. (#1484)- Minimum supported Rust version is now 1.46.0. (#1492)
- Rework
UnixAddr
to encapsulate internals better in order to fix soundness issues. No longer allows creating aUnixAddr
from a rawsockaddr_un
. (#1496) - Raised bitflags to 1.3.0 and the MSRV to 1.46.0. (#1492)

- Fixed potential undefined behavior in
Signal::try_from
on some platforms. (#1484) - Fixed buffer overflow in
unistd::getgrouplist
. (#1545)
- Removed a couple of termios constants on redox that were never actually supported. (#1483)
- Removed
nix::sys::signal::NSIG
. It was of dubious utility, and not correct for all platforms. (#1484) - Removed support for 32-bit Apple targets, since they've been dropped by both Rustc and Xcode. (#1492)
- Deprecated
SockAddr/InetAddr::to_str
in favor ofToString::to_string
(#1495) - Removed
SigevNotify
on OpenBSD and Redox. (#1511)
- Relaxed the bitflags requirement from 1.3.1 to 1.1. This partially reverts #1492. From now on, the MSRV is not guaranteed to work with all versions of all dependencies, just with some version of all dependencies. (#1607)
- Fixed buffer overflow in
unistd::getgrouplist
. (#1545) - Added more errno definitions for better backwards compatibility with Nix 0.21.0. (#1467)

support on Linux, Fuchsia and Android. (#1455)
ptsname_r
now returns a lossily-converted string in the event of bad UTF, just likeptsname
. (#1446)- Nix's error type is now a simple wrapper around the platform's Errno. This
means it is now
Into<std::io::Error>
. It's alsoClone
,Copy
,Eq
, and has a small fixed size. It also requires less typing. For example, the old enum variantnix::Error::Sys(nix::errno::Errno::EINVAL)
is now simplynix::Error::EINVAL
. (#1446)
- Fixed buffer overflow in
unistd::getgrouplist
. (#1545)

aconst fn
(#1429) - Made
Uid::is_root
aconst fn
(#1429) AioCb
is now always pinned. Once alibc::aiocb
gets sent to the kernel, its address in memory must not change. Nix now enforces that by usingstd::pin
. Most users won't need to change anything, except when usingaio_suspend
. See that method's documentation for the new usage. (#1440)LioCb
is now constructed using a distinctLioCbBuilder
struct. This avoids a soundness issue with the oldLioCb
. Usage is similar but construction now uses the builder pattern. See the documentation for details. (#1440)- Minimum supported Rust version is now 1.41.0. (#1440)
- Errno aliases are now associated consts on
Errno
, instead of consts in theerrno
module. (#1452)
- Allow
sockaddr_ll
size, as reported by the Linux kernel, to be smaller then it's definition (#1395) - Fix spurious errors using
sendmmsg
with multiple cmsgs (#1414) - Added
Errno::EOPNOTSUPP
to FreeBSD, where it was missing. (#1452)
- Removed
sys::socket::accept4
from Android arm because libc removed it in version 0.2.87. (#1399) AioCb::from_boxed_slice
andAioCb::from_boxed_mut_slice
have been removed. They were useful with earlier versions of Rust, but should no longer be needed now that async/await are available.AioCb
s now work exclusively with borrowed buffers, not owned ones. (#1440)- Removed some Errno values from platforms where they aren't actually defined. (#1452)
- Fixed buffer overflow in
unistd::getgrouplist
. (#1545)

recvfrom
on anAddrFamily::Packet
socket (#1344)

when op isEpollOp::EpollCtlDel
. (#480)- Removed the
bad
keyword from theioctl!
macro (#478) - Changed
TimeVal
into an opaque Newtype (#475) kill
's signature, defined in::nix::sys::signal
, changed, so that the signal parameter has typeT: Into<Option<Signal>>
.None
as an argument for that parameter will result in a 0 passed to libc'skill
, while aSome
-argument will result in the previous behavior for the containedSignal
. (#445)- The minimum supported version of rustc is now 1.7.0. (#444)
- Changed
KEvent
to an opaque structure that may only be modified by its constructor and theev_set
method. (#415) (#442) (#463) pipe2

where available. Previously it was emulated usingpipe
, which meant that settingO_CLOEXEC
was not atomic. (#427)- Renamed
EpollEventKind
toEpollFlags
in::nix::sys::epoll
in order for it to conform with our conventions. (#410) EpollEvent
in::nix::sys::epoll
is now an opaque proxy for::libc::epoll_event

can be constructed using the new methodnew()
of EpollEvent. (#410)SigFlags
in::nix::sys::signal
has be renamed toSigmaskHow
and its type has changed frombitflags
toenum
in order to conform to our conventions. (#460)sethostname
now takes a&str
instead of a&[u8]
as this provides an API that makes more sense in normal, correct usage of the API.gethostname
previously did not expose the actual length of the hostname written from the underlying system call at all. This has been updated to return a&CStr
within the provided buffer that is always properly NUL-terminated (this is not guaranteed by the call with all platforms/libc implementations).- Exposed all fcntl(2) operations at the module level, so they can be
imported direclty instead of via
FcntlArg
enum. (#541)

, respectively. They now returnEINVAL
, if an invalid argument for thefield
parameter is passed. (#402) MqAttr
in::nix::mqueue
is now an opaque proxy for::libc::mq_attr
, which has the same structure as the oldMqAttr
. The fieldmq_flags
of::libc::mq_attr
is readable using the new methodflags()
ofMqAttr
.MqAttr
also no longer implementsDebug
. (#392)- The parameter
msq_prio
ofmq_receive
with typeu32
in::nix::mqueue
was replaced by a parameter namedmsg_prio
with type&mut u32
, so that the message priority can be obtained by the caller. (#392) - The type alias
MQd
in::nix::queue
was replaced by the type aliaslibc::mqd_t
, both of which are aliases for the same type. (#392)
- Type alias
SigNum
