     6 This doc is about the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_function_interface][Foreign Function Interface]] (FFI) features of the
     7 =core=. 
     8 
     9 Besides accessing system, OS, and external libraries via binding code
    10 (dynamically in Lisp, statically in Rust), we also expose parts of the
    11 core in a C-compatible fashion. In Lisp, we use the SB-ALIEN interface
    12 to load (with dlopen) and call foreign symbols. In Rust we mostly use
    13 rust-bindgen and the built-in rustc features.
    14 
    15 * Libraries
    16 The following binding libraries are provided with supporting
    17 code. There is some cross-over between the Lisp and Rust bindings
    18 depending on what library features we need and where. Some of the
    19 bindings are very minimal or for experimental-use only only.
    20 ** xkb
    21 These bindings are actually directed at libxkbcommon instead of
    22 x11/xkb directly.

    25 ** rocksdb
    26 [[https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki][RocksDB Wiki]]
    27 ** btrfs
    28 The kernel headers btrfs and btrfs_tree will be wrapped at some point
    29 in addition to the userspace library (btrfsutil) documented below.
