+- [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.

 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.
