This stabilizes dereferencing immutable raw pointers in const contexts.
It does not stabilize `*mut T` dereferencing. This is placed behind the
`const_raw_mut_ptr_deref` feature gate.
Upgrade to LLVM 13
Work in progress update to LLVM 13. Main changes:
* InlineAsm diagnostics reported using SrcMgr diagnostic kind are now handled. Previously these used a separate diag handler.
* Codegen tests are updated for additional attributes.
* Some data layouts have changed.
* Switch `#[used]` attribute from `llvm.used` to `llvm.compiler.used` to avoid SHF_GNU_RETAIN flag introduced in https://reviews.llvm.org/D97448, which appears to trigger a bug in older versions of gold.
* Set `LLVM_INCLUDE_TESTS=OFF` to avoid Python 3.6 requirement.
Upstream issues:
* ~~https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51210 (InlineAsm diagnostic reporting for module asm)~~ Fixed by 1558bb80c0.
* ~~https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51476 (Miscompile on AArch64 due to incorrect comparison elimination)~~ Fixed by 81b106584f.
* https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51207 (Can't set custom section flags anymore). Problematic change reverted in our fork, https://reviews.llvm.org/D107216 posted for upstream revert.
* https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51211 (Regression in codegen for #83623). This is an optimization regression that we may likely have to eat for this release. The fix for #83623 was based on an incorrect premise, and this needs to be properly addressed in the MergeICmps pass.
The [compile-time impact](https://perf.rust-lang.org/compare.html?start=ef9549b6c0efb7525c9b012148689c8d070f9bc0&end=0983094463497eec22d550dad25576a894687002) is mixed, but quite positive as LLVM upgrades go.
The LLVM 13 final release is scheduled for Sep 21st. The current nightly is scheduled for stable release on Oct 21st.
r? `@ghost`
The #[used] attribute explicitly only requires symbols to be
retained in object files, but allows the linker to drop them
if dead. This corresponds to llvm.compiler.used semantics.
The motivation to change this *now* is that https://reviews.llvm.org/D97448
starts emitting #[used] symbols into unique sections with
SHF_GNU_RETAIN flag. This triggers a bug in some version of gold,
resulting in the ARGV_INIT_ARRAY symbol part of the .init_array
section to be incorrectly placed.
# Stabilization report
## Summary
This stabilizes using macro expansion in key-value attributes, like so:
```rust
#[doc = include_str!("my_doc.md")]
struct S;
#[path = concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/generated.rs")]
mod m;
```
See the changes to the reference for details on what macros are allowed;
see Petrochenkov's excellent blog post [on internals](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/macro-expansion-points-in-attributes/11455)
for alternatives that were considered and rejected ("why accept no more
and no less?")
This has been available on nightly since 1.50 with no major issues.
## Notes
### Accepted syntax
The parser accepts arbitrary Rust expressions in this position, but any expression other than a macro invocation will ultimately lead to an error because it is not expected by the built-in expression forms (e.g., `#[doc]`). Note that decorators and the like may be able to observe other expression forms.
### Expansion ordering
Expansion of macro expressions in "inert" attributes occurs after decorators have executed, analogously to macro expressions appearing in the function body or other parts of decorator input.
There is currently no way for decorators to accept macros in key-value position if macro expansion must be performed before the decorator executes (if the macro can simply be copied into the output for later expansion, that can work).
## Test cases

- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/test/rustdoc/external-doc.rs
The feature has also been dogfooded extensively in the compiler and
standard library:

## Unresolved Questions
~~https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83366#issuecomment-805180738 listed some concerns, but they have been resolved as of this final report.~~
## Additional Information
There are two workarounds that have a similar effect for `#[doc]`
attributes on nightly. One is to emulate this behavior by using a limited version of this feature that was stabilized for historical reasons:
```rust
macro_rules! forward_inner_docs {
($e:expr => $i:item) => {
#[doc = $e]
$i
};
}
forward_inner_docs!(include_str!("lib.rs") => struct S {});
```
This also works for other attributes (like `#[path = concat!(...)]`).
The other is to use `doc(include)`:
```rust
#![feature(external_doc)]
#[doc(include = "lib.rs")]
struct S {}
```
The first works, but is non-trivial for people to discover, and
difficult to read and maintain. The second is a strange special-case for
a particular use of the macro. This generalizes it to work for any use
case, not just including files.
I plan to remove `doc(include)` when this is stabilized. The
`forward_inner_docs` workaround will still compile without warnings, but
I expect it to be used less once it's no longer necessary.
Stabilize `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` lint
This makes it possible to override the level of the `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn`, as proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/71668#issuecomment-729770896.
Tracking issue: #71668

# Stabilization report
This is a stabilization report for `#![feature(unsafe_block_in_unsafe_fn)]`.
## Summary
Currently, the body of unsafe functions is an unsafe block, i.e. you can perform unsafe operations inside.
The `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` lint, stabilized here, can be used to change this behavior, so performing unsafe operations in unsafe functions requires an unsafe block.
For now, the lint is allow-by-default, which means that this PR does not change anything without overriding the lint level.
For more information, see [RFC 2585](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2585-unsafe-block-in-unsafe-fn.md)
### Example
```rust
// An `unsafe fn` for demonstration purposes.
// Calling this is an unsafe operation.
unsafe fn unsf() {}
// #[allow(unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn)] by default,
// the behavior of `unsafe fn` is unchanged
unsafe fn allowed() {
// Here, no `unsafe` block is needed to
// perform unsafe operations...
unsf();
// ...and any `unsafe` block is considered
// unused and is warned on by the compiler.
unsafe {
unsf();
}
}
#[warn(unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn)]
unsafe fn warned() {
// Removing this `unsafe` block will
// cause the compiler to emit a warning.
// (Also, no "unused unsafe" warning will be emitted here.)
unsafe {
unsf();
}
}
#[deny(unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn)]
unsafe fn denied() {
// Removing this `unsafe` block will
// cause a compilation error.
// (Also, no "unused unsafe" warning will be emitted here.)
unsafe {
unsf();
}
}
```
Stabilize move_ref_pattern
# Implementation
- Initially the rule was added in the run-up to 1.0. The AST-based borrow checker was having difficulty correctly enforcing match expressions that combined ref and move bindings, and so it was decided to simplify forbid the combination out right.
- The move to MIR-based borrow checking made it possible to enforce the rules in a finer-grained level, but we kept the rule in place in an effort to be conservative in our changes.
- In #68376, @Centril lifted the restriction but required a feature-gate.
- This PR removes the feature-gate.
Tracking issue: #68354.
# Description
This PR is to stabilize the feature `move_ref_pattern`, which allows patterns
containing both `by-ref` and `by-move` bindings at the same time.
For example: `Foo(ref x, y)`, where `x` is `by-ref`,
and `y` is `by-move`.
The rules of moving a variable also apply here when moving *part* of a variable,
such as it can't be referenced or moved before.
If this pattern is used, it would result in *partial move*, which means that
part of the variable is moved. The variable that was partially moved from
cannot be used as a whole in this case, only the parts that are still
not moved can be used.

## Tests
There are many tests, but I think one of the comperhensive ones:
- [borrowck-move-ref-pattern-pass.rs](85fbf49ce0/src/test/ui/pattern/move-ref-patterns/borrowck-move-ref-pattern-pass.rs)
- [borrowck-move-ref-pattern.rs](85fbf49ce0/src/test/ui/pattern/move-ref-patterns/borrowck-move-ref-pattern.rs)
# Examples
```rust
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Finished {}
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Processing {
status: ProcessStatus,
}
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
enum ProcessStatus {
One,
Two,
Three,
}
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
enum Status {
Finished(Finished),
Processing(Processing),
}
fn check_result(_url: &str) -> Status {
// fetch status from some server
Status::Processing(Processing {
status: ProcessStatus::One,
})
}
fn wait_for_result(url: &str) -> Finished {
let mut previous_status = None;
loop {
match check_result(url) {
Status::Finished(f) => return f,
Status::Processing(p) => {
match (&mut previous_status, p.status) {
(None, status) => previous_status = Some(status), // first status
(Some(previous), status) if *previous == status => {} // no change, ignore
(Some(previous), status) => { // Now it can be used
// new status
*previous = status;
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
Before, we would have used:
```rust
match (&previous_status, p.status) {
(Some(previous), status) if *previous == status => {} // no change, ignore
(_, status) => {
// new status
previous_status = Some(status);
}
}
```
Demonstrating *partial move*
```rust
fn main() {
#[derive(Debug)]
struct Person {
name: String,
age: u8,
}
let person = Person {
name: String::from("Alice"),
age: 20,
};
// `name` is moved out of person, but `age` is referenced
let Person { name, ref age } = person;
println!("The person's age is {}", age);
println!("The person's name is {}", name);
// Error! borrow of partially moved value: `person` partial move occurs
//println!("The person struct is {:?}", person);
// `person` cannot be used but `person.age` can be used as it is not moved
println!("The person's age from person struct is {}", person.age);
}
```
