Use rustix instead of libc (additive only approach) #892

Closed joshka closed 5 months ago

joshka commented 6 months ago

This is an purely additive alternative approach to #878. Instead of modifying the code paths that were hitting libc, this version instead adds feature gated additions (one path for not(libc), one for libc).

Closes: #847

There's still probably going to be a few things to clear up based on the various OS tests for this that run in CI.

It looks like libc is still in use in the event handling part of some backends, as part of signal handling (which rustix does not handle).

I can't add you right now (on my phone), but I wouldn't mind a hand with working out the more difficult of the two problems - what to do with the stream to fd conversion (sigwinch is the easy one). I'll take a look tomorrow sometime if you don't get it first.

@notgull what do you think of this fix?

@TimonPost This is probably good to have your 👀 on it now.
