Make zeroize available to product and vendor am: db8d34d3ab am: 791ee538c2 am: 347709a60a am: f3a402fa4c Original change: https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/external/rust/crates/zeroize/+/2476535 Change-Id: Ib957b064c4fc7b7b8dc41f3737f928bf570f6538 Signed-off-by: Automerger Merge Worker <[email protected]>
Securely zero memory (a.k.a. zeroize) while avoiding compiler optimizations.
This crate implements a portable approach to securely zeroing memory using techniques which guarantee they won't be “optimized away” by the compiler.
The Zeroize trait is the crate's primary API.
Zeroing memory securely is hard - compilers optimize for performance, and in doing so they love to “optimize away” unnecessary zeroing calls. There are many documented “tricks” to attempt to avoid these optimizations and ensure that a zeroing routine is performed reliably.
This crate isn‘t about tricks: it uses core::ptr::write_volatile and core::sync::atomic memory fences to provide easy-to-use, portable zeroing behavior which works on all of Rust’s core number types and slices thereof, implemented in pure Rust with no usage of FFI or assembly.
#![no_std] i.e. embedded-friendly!Rust 1.51 or newer.
In the future, we reserve the right to change MSRV (i.e. MSRV is out-of-scope for this crate's SemVer guarantees), however when we do it will be accompanied by a minor version bump.
