Anand Krishnamoorthi 86b4a279fa fix(ffi): eliminate aliasing UB + add Azure Policy JSON compilation FFI (#727)
* fix(ffi): eliminate aliasing UB via to_shared_ref migration

Add to_shared_ref() helper that creates &T (shared reference) from raw
pointers instead of &mut T. This eliminates undefined behavior caused by
violating Rust's aliasing invariant when C# SafeHandle permits concurrent
FFI calls on the same handle.

With &mut T, the compiler may assume exclusive (noalias) access and
reorder or elide reads/writes — a miscompilation risk when another thread
holds a reference to the same object. Switching to &T removes that
assumption; actual mutation is mediated by the interior RwLock inside
Handle<T>, which is the sole synchronization mechanism.

Migrated sites:
- rvm.rs: 20 non-drop call sites
- engine.rs: 30 non-drop call sites + with_unwind_guard for timer fns
- compiled_policy.rs: 2 call sites
- Fix null-data UB in regorus_program_deserialize_binary

Drop paths retain to_ref() where exclusive access is guaranteed by the
caller contract (preventing use-after-free).

* feat(ffi): add Azure Policy JSON compilation FFI and C# bindings

- AliasRegistry builder pattern: RegorusAliasRegistryBuilder (mutable,
  single-threaded) + RegorusAliasRegistry (immutable, Arc-wrapped)
- Azure Policy JSON compilation: regorus_compile_azure_policy_rule and
  regorus_compile_azure_policy_definition with alias registry support
- regorus_rvm_set_context for host-supplied ambient data
- C# AliasRegistryBuilder and AliasRegistry classes with convenience
  factories (FromJson, FromManifest, Empty)
- C# AzurePolicyCompiler static class for policy rule/definition compilation
- Compile functions take *const RegorusAliasRegistry (read-only via
  to_shared_ref for concurrent compilation safety)
- Fix pre-existing clippy warnings across multiple crates

Regorus Java

Regorus is

  • Rego-Rus(t) - A fast, light-weight Rego interpreter written in Rust.
  • Rigorous - A rigorous enforcer of well-defined Rego semantics.

See main Regorus page for more details about the project.

Building

Due to operational overhead we don't publish Java bindings to Maven Central currently (see https://github.com/microsoft/regorus/issues/237) and you need to build from source to use it.

In order to build Regorus Java for a target platform, you need to install Rust target for that platform first:

$ rustup target add aarch64-apple-darwin

Afterwards, you can build native library for that target using:

$ cargo build --release --target aarch64-apple-darwin

You will then have a native library at target/aarch64-apple-darwin/release/libregorus_java.dylib depending on your target.

You then need to build Java bindings using:

$ mvn package

And you will have a JAR at ./target/regorus-java-0.1.5.jar.

Automation

The repository exposes helper commands for local workflows:

  • cargo xtask build-java runs mvn package with quiet output helpers.
  • cargo xtask test-java rebuilds the native library via the Maven exec plugin and executes the binding tests.

Usage

You can use Regorus Java bindings as:

import com.microsoft.regorus.Engine;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try (Engine engine = new Engine()) {
            engine.addPolicy(
                "hello.rego",
                "package test\nmessage = concat(\", \", [input.message, data.message])"
            );
            engine.addDataJson("{\"message\":\"World!\"}");
            engine.setInputJson("{\"message\":\"Hello\"}");
            String resJson = engine.evalQuery("data.test.message");

            System.out.println(resJson);
        }
    }
}

You need to ensure artifacts built in previous section are in Java's classpath.

For example with java CLI:

$ java -Djava.library.path=../../target/aarch64-apple-darwin/release/ -cp target/regorus-java-0.1.5.jar Test.java

should gave you the output:

{"result":[{"expressions":[{"value":"Hello, World!","text":"data.test.message","location":{"row":1,"col":1}}]}]}
