Error: “linker ‘cc’ not found” when cross compiling a rust project from windows to linux using cargo
I have a basic rust/cargo project with a single main file and some basic dependencies. The cargo build command works fine when the target is not specified (I am using windows so it builds to windows), but when I try to cross compile the program to linux using cargo build –target=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu or cargo build –target=x86_64-unknown-linux-musl, the process fails with the
How do I get the filename of an open std::fs::File in Rust?
I have an open std::fs::File, and I want to get it’s filename, e.g. as a PathBuf. How do I do that? The simple solution would be to just save the path used in the call to File::open.

Safe global state for signal handling
I am toying around with Rust and various UNIX libraries. A use-case that I have right now is that I want to react to POSIX signals. To keep things reasonable I want to create an abstraction over the signal handling so that the rest of my program doesn’t have to worry about them as much. Let’s call the abstraction SignalHandler:
