Version 1.66.0 (2022-12-15)
==========================
Language
--------
- [Permit specifying explicit discriminants on all `repr(Int)` enums](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95710/)
```rust
#[repr(u8)]
enum Foo {
A(u8) = 0,
B(i8) = 1,
C(bool) = 42,
}
```
- [Allow transmutes between the same type differing only in lifetimes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101520/)
- [Change constant evaluation errors from a deny-by-default lint to a hard error](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/102091/)
- [Trigger `must_use` on `impl Trait` for supertraits](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/102287/)
This makes `impl ExactSizeIterator` respect the existing `#[must_use]` annotation on `Iterator`.
- [Allow `..=X` in patterns](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/102275/)
- [Uplift `clippy::for_loops_over_fallibles` lint into rustc](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99696/)
- [Stabilize `sym` operands in inline assembly](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/103168/)
- [Update to Unicode 15](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101912/)
- [Opaque types no longer imply lifetime bounds](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95474/)
This is a soundness fix which may break code that was erroneously relying on this behavior.
Compiler
--------
- [Add armv5te-none-eabi and thumbv5te-none-eabi tier 3 targets](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101329/)
- Refer to Rust's [platform support page][platform-support-doc] for more
information on Rust's tiered platform support.
- [Add support for linking against macOS universal libraries](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98736)
Libraries
---------
- [Fix `#[derive(Default)]` on a generic `#[default]` enum adding unnecessary `Default` bounds](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101040/)

Cargo
-----
- [Apply GitHub fast path even for partial hashes](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/10807/)
- [Do not add home bin path to PATH if it's already there](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11023/)
- [Take priority into account within the pending queue](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11032/).
This slightly optimizes job scheduling by Cargo, with typically small improvements on larger crate graph builds.
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [`std::layout::Layout` size must not overflow `isize::MAX` when rounded up to `align`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95295).
This also changes the safety conditions on `Layout::from_size_align_unchecked`.
- [`PollFn` now only implements `Unpin` if the closure is `Unpin`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/102737).
This is a possible breaking change if users were relying on the blanket unpin implementation.
See discussion on the PR for details of why this change was made.
- [Drop ExactSizeIterator impl from std::char::EscapeAscii](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99880)
This is a backwards-incompatible change to the standard library's surface
area, but is unlikely to affect real world usage.
- [Do not consider a single repeated lifetime eligible for elision in the return type](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/103450)
This behavior was unintentionally changed in 1.64.0, and this release reverts that change by making this an error again.
- [Reenable disabled early syntax gates as future-incompatibility lints](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99935/)
- [Update the minimum external LLVM to 13](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100460/)
- [Don't duplicate file descriptors into stdio fds](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101426/)
- [Sunset RLS](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100863/)
- [Deny usage of `#![cfg_attr(..., crate_type = ...)]` to set the crate type](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99784/)
This strengthens the forward compatibility lint deprecated_cfg_attr_crate_type_name to deny.
- [`llvm-has-rust-patches` allows setting the build system to treat the LLVM as having Rust-specific patches](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101072)
This option may need to be set for distributions that are building Rust with a patched LLVM via `llvm-config`, not the built-in LLVM.
- Combining three or more languages (e.g. Objective C, C++ and Rust) into one binary may hit linker limitations when using `lld`. For more information, see [issue 102754][102754].

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.
- [Add `x.sh` and `x.ps1` shell scripts](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99992/)

- [Enable MIR inlining for optimized compilations](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/91743)
This provides a 3-10% improvement in compiletimes for real world crates. See [perf results](https://perf.rust-lang.org/compare.html?start=aedf78e56b2279cc869962feac5153b6ba7001ed&end=0075bb4fad68e64b6d1be06bf2db366c30bc75e1&stat=instructions:u).
Version 1.64.0 (2022-09-22)
===========================
Language
--------
- [Unions with mutable references or tuples of allowed types are now allowed](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97995/)
- It is now considered valid to deallocate memory pointed to by a shared reference `&T` [if every byte in `T` is inside an `UnsafeCell`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98017/)
- Unused tuple struct fields are now warned against in an allow-by-default lint, [`unused_tuple_struct_fields`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95977/), similar to the existing warning for unused struct fields. This lint will become warn-by-default in the future.

Cargo
-----
- [Packages can now inherit settings from the workspace so that the settings
can be centralized in one place.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/10859) See
[`workspace.package`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-workspacepackage-table)
and
[`workspace.dependencies`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-workspacedependencies-table)
for more details on how to define these common settings.
- [Cargo commands can now accept multiple `--target` flags to build for
multiple targets at once](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/10766), and the
[`build.target`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/config.html#buildtarget)
config option may now take an array of multiple targets.
- [The `--jobs` argument can now take a negative number to count backwards from
the max CPUs.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/10844)
- [`cargo add` will now update `Cargo.lock`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/10902)

Misc
----
- [The `rust-analyzer` rustup component is now available on the stable channel.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98640/)
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- The minimum required versions for all `-linux-gnu` targets are now at least kernel 3.2 and glibc 2.17, for targets that previously supported older versions: [Increase the minimum linux-gnu versions](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95026/)
- [Network primitives are now implemented with the ideal Rust layout, not the C system layout](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/78802/). This can cause problems when transmuting the types.
- [Add assertion that `transmute_copy`'s `U` is not larger than `T`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98839/)
- [A soundness bug in `BTreeMap` was fixed](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99413/) that allowed data it was borrowing to be dropped before the container.
- [The Drop behavior of C-like enums cast to ints has changed](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/96862/). These are already discouraged by a compiler warning.
- [Relate late-bound closure lifetimes to parent fn in NLL](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98835/)
- [Errors at const-eval time are now in future incompatibility reports](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97743/)
- On the `thumbv6m-none-eabi` target, some incorrect `asm!` statements were erroneously accepted if they used the high registers (r8 to r14) as an input/output operand. [This is no longer accepted](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99155/).
- [`impl Trait` was accidentally accepted as the associated type value of return-position `impl Trait`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97346/), without fulfilling all the trait bounds of that associated type, as long as the hidden type satisfies said bounds. This has been fixed.
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.

Version 1.62.1 (2022-07-19)
==========================
Rust 1.62.1 addresses a few recent regressions in the compiler and standard
library, and also mitigates a CPU vulnerability on Intel SGX.
* [The compiler fixed unsound function coercions involving `impl Trait` return types.][98608]
* [The compiler fixed an incremental compilation bug with `async fn` lifetimes.][98890]
* [Windows added a fallback for overlapped I/O in synchronous reads and writes.][98950]
* [The `x86_64-fortanix-unknown-sgx` target added a mitigation for the
MMIO stale data vulnerability][98126], advisory [INTEL-SA-00615].

Clippy
------
- [Create clippy lint against unexpectedly late drop for temporaries in match scrutinee expressions][94206]
Cargo
-----
- Added the `cargo add` command for adding dependencies to `Cargo.toml` from
the command-line.
[docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/commands/cargo-add.html)
- Package ID specs now support `name@version` syntax in addition to the
previous `name:version` to align with the behavior in `cargo add` and other
tools. `cargo install` and `cargo yank` also now support this syntax so the
version does not need to passed as a separate flag.
- The `git` and `registry` directories in Cargo's home directory (usually
`~/.cargo`) are now marked as cache directories so that they are not
included in backups or content indexing (on Windows).
- Added automatic `@` argfile support, which will use "response files" if the
command-line to `rustc` exceeds the operating system's limit.
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- `cargo test` now passes `--target` to `rustdoc` if the specified target is
the same as the host target.
[#10594](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/10594)
- [rustdoc: doctests are now run on unexported `macro_rules!` macros, matching other private items][96630]
- [rustdoc: Remove .woff font files][96279]
- [Enforce Copy bounds for repeat elements while considering lifetimes][95819]
- [Windows: Fix potentinal unsoundness by aborting if `File` reads or writes cannot
complete synchronously][95469].
Internal Changes
----------------
- [Unify ReentrantMutex implementations across all platforms][96042]
These changes provide no direct user facing benefits, but represent significant
improvements to the internals and overall performance of rustc
and related tools.

Version 1.61.0 (2022-05-19)
==========================
Language
--------
- [`const fn` signatures can now include generic trait bounds][93827]
- [`const fn` signatures can now use `impl Trait` in argument and return position][93827]
- [Function pointers can now be created, cast, and passed around in a `const fn`][93827]
- [Recursive calls can now set the value of a function's opaque `impl Trait` return type][94081]
Compiler
--------
- [Linking modifier syntax in `#[link]` attributes and on the command line, as well as the `whole-archive` modifier specifically, are now supported][93901]
- [The `char` type is now described as UTF-32 in debuginfo][89887]
- The [`#[target_feature]`][target_feature] attribute [can now be used with aarch64 features][90621]
- X86 [`#[target_feature = "adx"]` is now stable][93745]
Libraries
---------
- [`ManuallyDrop<T>` is now documented to have the same layout as `T`][88375]
- [`#[ignore = "…"]` messages are printed when running tests][92714]
- [Consistently show absent stdio handles on Windows as NULL handles][93263]
- [Make `std::io::stdio::lock()` return `'static` handles.][93965] Previously, the creation of locked handles to stdin/stdout/stderr would borrow the handles being locked, which prevented writing `let out = std::io::stdout().lock();` because `out` would outlive the return value of `stdout()`. Such code now works, eliminating a common pitfall that affected many Rust users.
- [`Vec::from_raw_parts` is now less restrictive about its inputs][95016]
- [`std::thread::available_parallelism` now takes cgroup quotas into account.][92697] Since `available_parallelism` is often used to create a thread pool for parallel computation, which may be CPU-bound for performance, `available_parallelism` will return a value consistent with the ability to use that many threads continuously, if possible. For instance, in a container with 8 virtual CPUs but quotas only allowing for 50% usage, `available_parallelism` will return 4.
Stabilized APIs
---------------
- [`Pin::static_mut`]
- [`Pin::static_ref`]
- [`Vec::retain_mut`]
- [`VecDeque::retain_mut`]
- [`Write` for `Cursor<[u8; N]>`][cursor-write-array]
- [`std::os::unix::net::SocketAddr::from_pathname`]
- [`std::process::ExitCode`] and [`std::process::Termination`]. The stabilization of these two APIs now makes it possible for programs to return errors from `main` with custom exit codes.
- [`std::thread::JoinHandle::is_finished`]
These APIs are now usable in const contexts:
- [`<*const T>::offset` and `<*mut T>::offset`][ptr-offset]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_offset` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_offset`][ptr-wrapping_offset]
- [`<*const T>::add` and `<*mut T>::add`][ptr-add]
- [`<*const T>::sub` and `<*mut T>::sub`][ptr-sub]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_add` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_add`][ptr-wrapping_add]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_sub` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_sub`][ptr-wrapping_sub]
- [`<[T]>::as_mut_ptr`][slice-as_mut_ptr]
- [`<[T]>::as_ptr_range`][slice-as_ptr_range]
- [`<[T]>::as_mut_ptr_range`][slice-as_mut_ptr_range]
Cargo
-----
No feature changes, but see compatibility notes.
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- Previously native static libraries were linked as `whole-archive` in some cases, but now rustc tries not to use `whole-archive` unless explicitly requested. This [change][93901] may result in linking errors in some cases. To fix such errors, native libraries linked from the command line, build scripts, or [`#[link]` attributes][link-attr] need to
- (more common) either be reordered to respect dependencies between them (if `a` depends on `b` then `a` should go first and `b` second)
- (less common) or be updated to use the [`+whole-archive`] modifier.
- [Catching a second unwind from FFI code while cleaning up from a Rust panic now causes the process to abort][92911]
- [Proc macros no longer see `ident` matchers wrapped in groups][92472]
- [The number of `#` in `r#` raw string literals is now required to be less than 256][95251]
- [When checking that a dyn type satisfies a trait bound, supertrait bounds are now enforced][92285]
- [`cargo vendor` now only accepts one value for each `--sync` flag][cargo/10448]
- [`cfg` predicates in `all()` and `any()` are always evaluated to detect errors, instead of short-circuiting.][94295] The compatibility considerations here arise in nightly-only code that used the short-circuiting behavior of `all` to write something like `cfg(all(feature = "nightly", syntax-requiring-nightly))`, which will now fail to compile. Instead, use either `cfg_attr(feature = "nightly", ...)` or nested uses of `cfg`.
- [bootstrap: static-libstdcpp is now enabled by default, and can now be disabled when llvm-tools is enabled][94832]
Internal Changes
----------------
These changes provide no direct user facing benefits, but represent significant
improvements to the internals and overall performance of rustc
and related tools.
- [debuginfo: Refactor debuginfo generation for types][94261]

Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [Remove compiler-rt linking hack on Android][83822]
- [Mitigations for platforms with non-monotonic clocks have been removed from
`Instant::now`][89926]. On platforms that don't provide monotonic clocks, an
instant is not guaranteed to be greater than an earlier instant anymore.
- [`Instant::{duration_since, elapsed, sub}` do not panic anymore on underflow,
saturating to `0` instead][89926]. In the real world the panic happened mostly
on platforms with buggy monotonic clock implementations rather than catching
programming errors like reversing the start and end times. Such programming
errors will now results in `0` rather than a panic.
- In a future release we're planning to increase the baseline requirements for
the Linux kernel to version 3.2, and for glibc to version 2.17. We'd love
your feedback in [PR #95026][95026].
Internal Changes

Version 1.59.0 (2022-02-24)
==========================
Language
--------
- [Stabilize default arguments for const parameters and remove the ordering restriction for type and const parameters][90207]
- [Stabilize destructuring assignment][90521]
- [Relax private in public lint on generic bounds and where clauses of trait impls][90586]
- [Stabilize asm! and global_asm! for x86, x86_64, ARM, Aarch64, and RISC-V][91728]
Compiler
--------
- [Stabilize new symbol mangling format, leaving it opt-in (-Csymbol-mangling-version=v0)][90128]
- [Emit LLVM optimization remarks when enabled with `-Cremark`][90833]
- [Fix sparc64 ABI for aggregates with floating point members][91003]
- [Warn when a `#[test]`-like built-in attribute macro is present multiple times.][91172]
- [Add support for riscv64gc-unknown-freebsd][91284]
- [Stabilize `-Z emit-future-incompat` as `--json future-incompat`][91535]
- [Soft disable incremental compilation][94124]
This release disables incremental compilation, unless the user has explicitly
opted in via the newly added RUSTC_FORCE_INCREMENTAL=1 environment variable.
This is due to a known and relatively frequently occurring bug in incremental
compilation, which causes builds to issue internal compiler errors. This
particular bug is already fixed on nightly, but that fix has not yet rolled out
to stable and is deemed too risky for a direct stable backport.
As always, we encourage users to test with nightly and report bugs so that we
can track failures and fix issues earlier.
See [94124] for more details.
