+#### Unsafe code in functions
+
+Unsafe code is currently accepted in unsafe functions, but that is being phased
+out in favor of requiring unsafe blocks here too.
+
+```
+unsafe fn f() { return; }
+
+unsafe fn g() {
+    f(); // Is accepted, but no longer recommended
+    unsafe { f(); } // Recommended way to write this
+}
+```
+
+Linting against this is controlled via the `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` lint, which
+is `allow` by default but will be upgraded to `warn` in a future edition.
