volcell
The volcell crate provides the container type VolatileCell which prevents memory accesses to its data
from being optimized away by the compiler.
This is useful for example when writing to memory that needs to be read by either another process or the kernel
and when writing to buffers that are used to interface with hardware (e.g. the VGA buffer or an APIC register).
VolatileCell can be used in packed structs when enabling the unstable feature and using the nightly Rust toolchain.
Contributing
This project is open to any sorts of contributions, be it by notifying me of an issue with the library or by directly contributing code. Since I want to keep this library small and simple, however, you should open an issue to discuss the changes you want to make before starting work on a pull request.
