(This issue is derived from https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer/issues/105.) https://github.com/alexcrichton/cc-rs/blob/85bc5b9fce81177ed8024e5241136417c6008db8/src/lib.rs#L2377-L2413 creates a new process, reads its output as a byte stream, then proceeds to re-emit each line via `std::io::stdout().write_all()`. Unfortunately, this may not...

RSA padding trait methods are public, and take `BitLength` arguments, but `BitLength` isn't public

I'm attempting to perform PKCS#1 padding using ring's APIs for doing so. (I need to write the result over the wire to a YubiKey, whose signature creation API wants you...

`include/GFp/type_check.h:71:42: error: static assertion failed: "uint64_t is insufficient precision for n0"` when cross-compiling from `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` to `i686-unknown-linux-musl`

If I attempt to cross-compile from an x86-64 Linux host to a `i686-unknown-linux-musl` target using Ubuntu 21.04, I get the following error: ``` $ cargo build --target i686-unknown-linux-musl Compiling ring...

I wanted to share that I have just published a crate that implements support for Apple's code signatures: https://crates.io/crates/tugger-apple-codesign. I'm mentioning this in the goblin issue tracker because a) I...

Support for text based stub libraries (.tbd) files

Thank you for maintaining goblin. It is a joy being able to open binary files from any platform and analyze their contents without having to install a myriad of tools...

Python 3.6 added an optional `max_length` argument on decompressor's `decompress()` method. e.g. https://docs.python.org/3/library/zlib.html#zlib.Decompress.decompress. This argument can reduce a lot of (but not all) of the performance badness in the API...

Intent to rewrite in Rust

After learning Rust and seeing its obvious benefits for safety/security and ease of maintenance over C, I would prefer to not author any new C code wherever possible. I believe...

I have a project that includes lalrpop 0.16 as a transitive dependency. (The direct dependency is not trivial to upgrade. More context in https://github.com/facebookexperimental/starlark-rust/issues/32.) It appears that this version of...

Questions before submitting a bunch of patches

As I port python-zstandard to Rust, I'd like to use `zstd-safe` rather than `zstd-sys`. It is quite apparent that a lot of APIs are not yet available in `zstd-safe`. Before...

When looking at why our GHE backups were taking so long, I noticed that various operations are CPU constrained on gzip compression/decompression. For example, when dumping the MySQL database, I...
