Move fast and don't break things: High-performance networking in Rust
summary
Pure-Rust experimental network stack that implements zero copy parsing/serialization and aims for no heap allocation by allocating buffers on the stack, uses a Buffer trait plus composer pattern (packet builders and recursive Serializers), and isolates the few necessary unsafe operations in an unsafe marker trait from_bytes plus an unaligned trait. Current implementation can respond to pings only; design proves many invariants at compile time but does not yet provide production benchmarks.
