Rust 1.67.0

on GitHub

Language

• Make Sized predicates coinductive, allowing cycles.
• #[must_use] annotations on async fn also affect the Future::Output.
• Elaborate supertrait obligations when deducing closure signatures.
• Invalid literals are no longer an error under cfg(FALSE).
• Unreserve braced enum variants in value namespace.

Compiler

• Enable varargs support for calling conventions other than C or cdecl.
• Add new MIR constant propagation based on dataflow analysis.
• Optimize field ordering by grouping m*2^n-sized fields with equivalently aligned ones.
• Stabilize native library modifier verbatim.

Added and removed targets:

• Add a tier 3 target for PowerPC on AIX, powerpc64-ibm-aix.
• Add a tier 3 target for the Sony PlayStation 1, mipsel-sony-psx.
• Add tier 3 no_std targets for the QNX Neutrino RTOS, aarch64-unknown-nto-qnx710 and x86_64-pc-nto-qnx710.
• Remove tier 3 linuxkernel targets (not used by the actual kernel).

Refer to Rust's platform support page for more information on Rust's tiered platform support.

Libraries

• Merge crossbeam-channel into std::sync::mpsc.
• Fix inconsistent rounding of 0.5 when formatted to 0 decimal places.
• Derive Eq and Hash for ControlFlow.
• Don't build compiler_builtins with -C panic=abort.

Stabilized APIs

• {integer}::checked_ilog
• {integer}::checked_ilog2
• {integer}::checked_ilog10
• {integer}::ilog
• {integer}::ilog2
• {integer}::ilog10
• NonZeroU*::ilog2
• NonZeroU*::ilog10
• NonZero*::BITS

These APIs are now stable in const contexts:

• char::from_u32
• char::from_digit
• char::to_digit
• core::char::from_u32
• core::char::from_digit

Compatibility Notes

• The layout of repr(Rust) types now groups m*2^n-sized fields with equivalently aligned ones. This is intended to be an optimization, but it is also known to increase type sizes in a few cases for the placement of enum tags. As a reminder, the layout of repr(Rust) types is an implementation detail, subject to change.
• 0.5 now rounds to 0 when formatted to 0 decimal places. This makes it consistent with the rest of floating point formatting that rounds ties toward even digits.
• Chains of && and || will now drop temporaries from their sub-expressions in evaluation order, left-to-right. Previously, it was "twisted" such that the first expression dropped its temporaries last, after all of the other expressions dropped in order.
• Underscore suffixes on string literals are now a hard error. This has been a future-compatibility warning since 1.20.0.
• Stop passing -export-dynamic to wasm-ld.
• main is now mangled as __main_void on wasm32-wasi.
• Cargo now emits an error if there are multiple registries in the configuration with the same index URL.

Internal Changes

These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they represent significant improvements to the performance or internals of rustc and related tools.

• Rewrite LLVM's archive writer in Rust.
