What is Glommio?
Glommio (pronounced glo-mee-jow or |glomjəʊ|) is a Cooperative Thread-per-Core crate for Rust & Linux based
on io_uring
. Like other rust asynchronous crates, it allows one to write asynchronous code that takes advantage of
rust async
/await
, but unlike its counterparts, it doesn't use helper threads anywhere.
Using Glommio is not hard if you are familiar with rust async. All you have to do is:
use glommio::prelude::*;
LocalExecutorBuilder::default().spawn(|| async move {
/// your async code here
})
.expect("failed to spawn local executor")
.join();
For more details check out our docs page and an introductory article.
Supported Rust Versions
Glommio is built against the latest stable release. The minimum supported version is 1.65. The current Glommio version is not guaranteed to build on Rust versions earlier than the minimum supported version.
Supported Linux kernels
Glommio requires a kernel with a recent enough io_uring
support, at least current enough to run discovery probes. The
minimum version at this time is 5.8.
Please also note Glommio requires at least 512 KiB of locked memory for io_uring
to work. You can increase the
memlock
resource limit (rlimit) as follows:
$ vi /etc/security/limits.conf
* hard memlock 512
* soft memlock 512
Please note that 512 KiB is the minimum needed to spawn a single executor. Spawning multiple executors may require you to raise the limit accordingly.
To make the new limits effective, you need to log in to the machine again. You can verify that the limits are updated by running the following:
$ ulimit -l
512
