pingrs

A concurrent implementation of ping in Rust.

WIP (untested, maybe unstable, but Just Works™).

Usage

Linux

ping.zsh builds, sets relevant file capabilities (needs sudo for that), and runs the release version of pingrs.

ping-debug.zsh does the same, in debug mode.

macOS

TBD

Windows

TBD w/ pain

Known problems

• pingrs may need special rights depending on OS.
• more importantly, current use of pnet is weird, as pingrs re-implements its own ICMP abstraction, but still makes use of pnet's implementation to send/receive packets.

Dependencies

• pnet
• rand
• internet-checksum
• ctrlc
• crossbeam-channel
• trust-dns-resolver
