define_type!(
  size_t, usize, test_size_t_metrics, ring_size_t_align, ring_size_t_size,
  "The C `size_t` type from `<stdint.h>`.

  ISO C's `size_t` is defined to be the type of the result of the
  `sizeof` operator and the type of the size parameter to `malloc`. That
  is, C's `size_t` is only required to hold the size of the largest object
  that can be allocated. In particular, it is legal for a C implementation
  to have a maximum object size smaller than the entire address space. For
  example, a C implementation may have an maximum object size of 2^32
  bytes with a 64-bit address space, and typedef `size_t` as `uint32_t` so
  that `sizeof(size_t) == 4` and `sizeof(void*) == 8`.

  Rust's `usize`, on the other hand, is defined to always be the same size
  as a pointer. This means that it is possible, in theory, to have a platform
  where `usize` can represent values that `size_t` cannot represent. However,
  on the vast majority of systems, `usize` and `size_t` are represented the
  same way. If it were required to explicitly cast `usize` to `size_t` on
  common platforms, then many programmers would habitually write expressions
  such as `my_slice.len() as libc::size_t` expecting this to always work and
  be safe. But such a cast is *not* safe on the uncommon platforms where
  `mem::sizeof(libc::size_t) < mem::size_t(usize)`. Consequently, to reduce
  the chances of programmers becoming habituated to such casts that would be
  unsafe on unusual platforms, we have adopted the following convention:

  * On common platforms where C's `size_t` is the same size as `usize`,
    `ring::c::size_t` must be a type alias of `usize`.

  * On uncommon platforms where C's `size_t` is not the same size as `usize`,
    `ring::c::size_t` must be a type alias for a type other than `usize`.

  * Code that was written without consideration for the uncommon platforms
    should not do any explicit casting between `size_t` and `usize`. Such
    code will fail to compile on the uncommon platforms; this is better than
    executing with unsafe truncations.

  * Code that was written with full consideration of the uncommon platforms
    should have explicit casts using `num::cast` or other methods that avoid
    unintended truncation. Such code will then work on all platforms.");
