2a7c2df506 Auto merge of #115719 - tgross35:atomic-from-ptr, r=dtolnay
Stabilize `atomic_from_ptr`

This stabilizes `atomic_from_ptr` and moves the const gate to `const_atomic_from_ptr`. Const stability is blocked on `const_mut_refs`.

Tracking issue:  #108652

Newly stable API:

```rust
// core::atomic

impl AtomicBool { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut bool) -> &'a AtomicBool; }

impl<T> AtomicPtr<T> { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut *mut T) -> &'a AtomicPtr<T>; }

impl AtomicU8    { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut u8)    -> &'a AtomicU8;    }
impl AtomicU16   { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut u16)   -> &'a AtomicU16;   }
impl AtomicU32   { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut u32)   -> &'a AtomicU32;   }
impl AtomicU64   { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut u64)   -> &'a AtomicU64;   }
impl AtomicUsize { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut usize) -> &'a AtomicUsize; }

impl AtomicI8    { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut i8)    -> &'a AtomicI8;    }
impl AtomicI16   { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut i16)   -> &'a AtomicI16;   }
impl AtomicI32   { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut i32)   -> &'a AtomicI32;   }
impl AtomicI64   { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut i64)   -> &'a AtomicI64;   }
impl AtomicIsize { pub unsafe fn from_ptr<'a>(ptr: *mut isize) -> &'a AtomicIsize; }

Stabilize `const_maybe_uninit_assume_init_read`

AFAICT the only reason this was not included in the `maybe_uninit_extra` stabilization was because `ptr::read` was unstable (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/92768#issuecomment-1011101383), which has since been stabilized in 1.71.

Needs a separate FCP from the [original `maybe_uninit_extra` one](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63567#issuecomment-964428807).

Needs FCP due to behavioural changes (NB only on non-Unix `#[cfg(unix)]` platforms).

Also, I think this is likely to break in CI.  I have not been yet able to compile the new bits of `process_unsupported.rs`, although I have compiled the new module.  I'd like some help from people familiar with eg emscripten and fuchsia (which are going to be affected, I think).

Remove unnecessary tmp variable in default_read_exact

This `tmp` variable has existed since the original implementation (added in ff81920f03), but it's not necessary (maybe non-lexical lifetimes helped?).

It's common to read std source code to understand how things actually work, and this tripped me up on my first read.

rustdoc: show crate name beside smaller logo

*Blocked on https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/12800*

## Summary

In this PR, the crate name and version are always shown in the sidebar, even in subpages, and the lateral navigation is always shown in the sidebar, even in modules.

Clicking the crate name does the same thing clicking the logo always did: take you to the crate root (the crate's home page, at least within Rustdoc).

The Rust logo is also no longer shown by default for non-Rust docs.

## Motivation

This improves visual information density (the construct with the logo and crate name is *shorter* than the logo on its own, because it's not square) and navigation clarity (we can now see what clicking the Rust logo does, specifically).

Compare this with the layout at [Phoenix's Hexdocs] (which is what this proposal is closely based on), the old proposal on [Internals Discourse] (which always says "Rust standard library" in the sidebar, but doesn't do the side-by-side layout).

[Phoenix's Hexdocs]: https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/1.7.7/overview.html
[Internals Discourse]: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/poc-of-a-new-design-for-the-generated-rustdoc/11018

## Guide-level explanation

This PR cleans up some of the sidebar navigation.

It makes the logo in the desktop sidebar a bit smaller, and puts the crate name and version next to it (either beside it, or below it, depending on if there's space), making it clearer what clicking on it does: click the crate name to open the crate's home page. It also removes the Rust logo from non-official-Rust crates, again to make the navigation and supply chain clearer (since the crate name has been added, the logo is no longer necessary for navigation).

It adds a bit more clarifying information for lateral navigation. On items that don't add their own sidebar items, it just shows its siblings directly below the crate name and logo, but for other items, it shows "In crate alloc" instead of just "In alloc". It also shows the lateral navigation tools on module pages, making modules consistent with every other item.

## Drawbacks

While this actually takes up less screen real estate than the old layout on desktop, it takes up more HTML. It's also a bit more visually complex.

## Rationale and alternatives

I could do what the Internals POC did and keep the vertically stacked layout all the time, instead of doing a horizontal stack where possible. It would take up more screen real estate, though.

## Prior art

This design is lifted almost verbatim from Hexdocs. It seems to work for them. [`opentelemetry_process_propagator`], for example, has a long application name.

[`opentelemetry_process_propagator`]: https://hexdocs.pm/opentelemetry_process_propagator/OpentelemetryProcessPropagator.html

## Unresolved questions

Maybe we should encourage crate authors to include their own logo more often? It certainly helps give people a better sense of "place." This seems to be blocked on coming up with an API to do it without requiring them to host the file somewhere.

## Future possibilities

Beyond this, plenty of other changes could be made to improve the layout, like

* Fix things so that clicking an item in the sidebar doesn't cause it to scroll back to the top.
  * The [Internals demo](https://utherii.github.io/new.html) does this right: clicking an item in the sidebar changes the content area, but the sidebar itself does not change. This is nice, because clicking is cheap and I can skim the opening few paragraphs while browsing.
  * The layout of the docs sidebar causes trouble to implement this, because it's different on different pages, but at least fix this on the file browser.
* Come up with a less cluttered way to do disclosure. There's a lot of `[-]` on the page.
  * We don't lack ideas to fix this one. We have *too many*.
* Do a better job of separating local navigation (vec::Vec links to vec::IntoIter) and the table of contents (vec::Vec links to vec::Vec::new).
  * A possibility: add a Back arrow next to the "In [module]" header?
    ![image](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/assets/1593513/e969faf7-7722-457a-b8c6-8d962e9e1e23)
* Give readers more control of how much rustdoc shows them, and giving doc authors more control of how much it generates. Basically, https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115660 is great, let's do it too.

But those are mostly orthogonal, not future possibilities unlocked by this change.

Rollup merge of #95967 - CAD97:from-utf16, r=dtolnay
Add explicit-endian String::from_utf16 variants

This adds the following APIs under `feature(str_from_utf16_endian)`:

```rust
impl String {
    pub fn from_utf16le(v: &[u8]) -> Result<String, FromUtf16Error>;
    pub fn from_utf16le_lossy(v: &[u8]) -> String;
    pub fn from_utf16be(v: &[u8]) -> Result<String, FromUtf16Error>;
    pub fn from_utf16be_lossy(v: &[u8]) -> String;
}
```

These are versions of `String::from_utf16` that explicitly take [UTF-16LE and UTF-16BE](https://unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#gen7). Notably, we can do better than just the obvious `decode_utf16(v.array_chunks::<2>().copied().map(u16::from_le_bytes)).collect()` in that:

- We handle the case where the byte slice is not an even number of bytes, and
- In the case that the UTF-16 is native endian and the slice is aligned, we can forward to `String::from_utf16`.

If the Unicode Consortium actively defines how to handle character replacement when decoding a UTF-16 bytestream with a trailing odd byte, I was unable to find reference. However, the behavior implemented here is fairly self-evidently correct: replace the single errant byte with the replacement character.

598e29bf70 Auto merge of #100806 - timvermeulen:split_inclusive_double_ended_bound, r=dtolnay
Fix generic bound of `str::SplitInclusive`'s `DoubleEndedIterator` impl

`str::SplitInclusive`'s `DoubleEndedIterator` implementation currently uses a `ReverseSearcher` bound for the corresponding searcher. A `DoubleEndedSearcher` bound should have been used instead.

`DoubleEndedIterator` requires that repeated `next_back` calls produce the same items as repeated `next` calls, in opposite order. `ReverseSearcher` lets you search starting from the back of a string, but it makes no guarantees about how its matches correspond to the matches found by a forward search. `DoubleEndedSearcher` is a subtrait of `ReverseSearcher` and does require that the same matches are found in both directions.

This bug fix is a breaking change. Calling `next_back` on `"a+++b".split_inclusive("++")` is currently accepted with repeated calls producing `"b"` and `"a+++"`, while forward iteration yields `"a++"` and `"+b"`. Also see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/100756#issuecomment-1221307166 for more details.

I believe that this is the only iterator that uses this bound incorrectly — other related iterators such as `str::Split` do have a `DoubleEndedSearcher` bound for their `DoubleEndedIterator` implementation. And `slice::SplitInclusive` doesn't face this problem at all because it doesn't use patterns, only a predicate.

3bcad65fbf Auto merge of #103046 - JanBeh:PR_clarify_cmp_terminology, r=workingjubilee
docs: Correct terminology in std::cmp

This PR is the result of some discussions on URLO:

* [Traits in `std::cmp` and mathematical terminology](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/traits-in-std-cmp-and-mathematical-terminology/69887)
* [Are poker hands `Ord` or `PartialOrd`?](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/are-poker-hands-ord-or-partialord/82644)

Arguably, the documentation currently isn't very precise regarding mathematical terminology. This can lead to misunderstandings of what `PartialEq`, `Eq`, `PartialOrd`, and `Ord` actually do.

While I believe this PR doesn't give any new API guarantees, it expliclitly mentions that `PartialEq::eq(a, b)` may return `true` for two distinct values `a` and `b` (i.e. where `a` and `b` are not equal in the mathematical sense). This leads to the consequence that `Ord` may describe a weak ordering instead of a total ordering.

In either case, I believe this PR should be thoroughly reviewed, ideally by someone with mathematical background to make sure the terminology is correct now, and also to ensure that no unwanted new API guarantees are made.

In particular, the following problems are addressed:

* Some clarifications regarding used (mathematical) terminology:
    * Avoid using the terms "total equality" and "partial equality" in favor of "equivalence relation" and "partial equivalence relation", which are well-defined and unambiguous.
    * Clarify that `Ordering` is an ordering between two values (and not an order in the mathematical sense).
    * Avoid saying that `PartialEq` and `Eq` are "equality comparisons" because the terminology "equality comparison" could be misleading: it's possible to implement `PartialEq` and `Eq` for other (partial) equivalence relations, in particular for relations where `a == b` for some `a` and `b` even when `a` and `b` are not the same value.
    * Added a section "Strict and non-strict partial orders" to document that the `<=` and `>=` operators do not correspond to non-strict partial orders.
    * Corrected section "Corollaries" in documenation of `Ord` in regard to `<` only describing a strict total order in cases where `==` conforms to mathematical equality.
    * ~~Added a section "Weak orders" to explain that `Ord` may also describe a weak order or total preorder, depending on how `PartialEq::eq` has been implemented.~~ (Removed, see [comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/103046#issuecomment-1279929676))
* Made documentation easier to understand:
    * Explicitly state at the beginning of `PartialEq`'s documentation comment that implementing the trait will provide the `==` and `!=` operators.
    * Added an easier to understand rule when to implement `Eq` in addition to `PartialEq`: "if it’s guaranteed that `PartialEq::eq(a, a)` always returns `true`."
    *  Explicitly mention in documentation of `Eq` that the properties "symmetric" and "transitive" are already required by `PartialEq`.
