+
+/// A trait which abstracts how to get at the region of host memory that
+/// contains guest memory.
+///
+/// All `GuestPtr` types will contain a handle to this trait, signifying where
+/// the pointer is actually pointing into. This type will need to be implemented
+/// for the host's memory storage object.
+///
+/// # Safety
+///
+/// Safety around this type is tricky, and the trait is `unsafe` since there are
+/// a few contracts you need to uphold to implement this type correctly and have
+/// everything else in this crate work out safely.
+///
+/// The most important method of this trait is the `base` method. This returns,
+/// in host memory, a pointer and a length. The pointer should point to valid
+/// memory for the guest to read/write for the length contiguous bytes
+/// afterwards.
+///
+/// The region returned by `base` must not only be valid, however, but it must
+/// be valid for "a period of time before the guest is reentered". This isn't
+/// exactly well defined but the general idea is that `GuestMemory` is allowed
+/// to change under our feet to accommodate instructions like `memory.grow` or
+/// other guest modifications. Memory, however, cannot be changed if the guest
+/// is not reentered or if no explicitly action is taken to modify the guest
+/// memory.
+///
+/// This provides the guarantee that host pointers based on the return value of
+/// `base` have a dynamic period for which they are valid. This time duration
+/// must be "somehow nonzero in length" to allow users of `GuestMemory` and
+/// `GuestPtr` to safely read and write interior data.
+///
+/// This type also provides methods for run-time borrow checking of references
+/// into the memory. The safety of this mechanism depends on there being exactly
+/// one associated tracking of borrows for a given WebAssembly memory. There
+/// must be no other reads or writes of WebAssembly the memory by either Rust or
+/// WebAssembly code while there are any outstanding borrows, as given by
+/// `GuestMemory::has_outstanding_borrows()`.
+///
+/// # Using References
+///
+/// The [`GuestPtr::as_slice`] or [`GuestPtr::as_str`] will return smart
+/// pointers [`GuestSlice`] and [`GuestStr`]. These types, which implement
+/// [`std::ops::Deref`] and [`std::ops::DerefMut`], provide mutable references
+/// into the memory region given by a `GuestMemory`.
+///
+/// These smart pointers are dynamically borrow-checked by the borrow checker
+/// methods on this trait. While a `GuestSlice` or a `GuestStr` are live, the
+/// [`GuestMemory::has_outstanding_borrows()`] method will always return `true`.
+/// If you need to re-enter the guest or otherwise read or write to the contents
+/// of a WebAssembly memory, all `GuestSlice`s and `GuestStr`s for the memory
+/// must be dropped, at which point `GuestMemory::has_outstanding_borrows()`
+/// will return `false`.

+/// A *guest* pointer into host memory.
+///
+/// This type represents a pointer from the guest that points into host memory.
+/// Internally a `GuestPtr` contains a handle to its original [`GuestMemory`] as
+/// well as the offset into the memory that the pointer is pointing at.
+///
+/// Presence of a [`GuestPtr`] does not imply any form of validity. Pointers can
+/// be out-of-bounds, misaligned, etc. It is safe to construct a `GuestPtr` with
+/// any offset at any time. Consider a `GuestPtr<T>` roughly equivalent to `*mut
+/// T`, although there are a few more safety guarantees around this type.
+///
+/// ## Slices and Strings
+///
+/// Note that the type parameter does not need to implement the `Sized` trait,
+/// so you can implement types such as this:
+///
+/// * `GuestPtr<'_, str>` - a pointer to a guest string. Has the methods
+///   [`GuestPtr::as_str_mut`], which gives a dynamically borrow-checked
+///   `GuestStrMut<'_>`, which `DerefMut`s to a `&mut str`, and
+///   [`GuestPtr::as_str`], which is the shareable version of same.
+/// * `GuestPtr<'_, [T]>` - a pointer to a guest array. Has methods
+///   [`GuestPtr::as_slice_mut`], which gives a dynamically borrow-checked
+///   `GuestSliceMut<'_, T>`, which `DerefMut`s to a `&mut [T]` and
+///   [`GuestPtr::as_slice`], which is the shareable version of same.
+///
+/// Unsized types such as this may have extra methods and won't have methods
+/// like [`GuestPtr::read`] or [`GuestPtr::write`].
+///
+/// ## Type parameter and pointee
+///
+/// The `T` type parameter is largely intended for more static safety in Rust as
+/// well as having a better handle on what we're pointing to. A `GuestPtr<T>`,
+/// however, does not necessarily literally imply a guest pointer pointing to
+/// type `T`. Instead the [`GuestType`] trait is a layer of abstraction where
+/// `GuestPtr<T>` may actually be a pointer to `U` in guest memory, but you can
+/// construct a `T` from a `U`.
+///
+/// For example `GuestPtr<GuestPtr<T>>` is a valid type, but this is actually
+/// more equivalent to `GuestPtr<u32>` because guest pointers are always
+/// 32-bits. That being said you can create a `GuestPtr<T>` from a `u32`.
+///
+/// Additionally `GuestPtr<MyEnum>` will actually delegate, typically, to and
+/// implementation which loads the underlying data as `GuestPtr<u8>` (or
+/// similar) and then the bytes loaded are validated to fit within the
+/// definition of `MyEnum` before `MyEnum` is returned.
+///
+/// For more information see the [`GuestPtr::read`] and [`GuestPtr::write`]
+/// methods. In general though be extremely careful about writing `unsafe` code
+/// when working with a `GuestPtr` if you're not using one of the
+/// already-attached helper methods.
