Rename `CoerceSized` to `DispatchFromDyn`, and reverse the direction so that, for example, you write
```
impl<T: Unsize<U>, U> DispatchFromDyn<*const U> for *const T {}
```
instead of
```
impl<T: Unsize<U>, U> DispatchFromDyn<*const T> for *const U {}
```
this way the trait is really just a subset of `CoerceUnsized`.
The checks in object_safety.rs are updated for the new trait, and some documentation and method names in there are updated for the new trait name — e.g. `receiver_is_coercible` is now called `receiver_is_dispatchable`. Since the trait now works in the opposite direction, some code had to updated here for that too.
I did not update the error messages for invalid `CoerceSized` (now `DispatchFromDyn`) implementations, except to find/replace `CoerceSized` with `DispatchFromDyn`. Will ask for suggestions in the PR thread.
In the comments of (closed, defunct) pull request #54884, Mazdak
"Centril" Farrokhzad noted that must-use annotations didn't work on an
associated function (what other communities might call a "static
method"). Subsequent logging revealed that in this case we have a
`Def::Method`, whereas the lint pass was only matching on
`Def::Fn`. (One could argue that those def-names are thereby
misleading—must-use for self-ful methods have always worked—but
documenting or reworking that can be left to another day.)
This commit introduces language items for `Arc` and `Rc` so that types
can later be checked to be `Arc` or `Rc` in the NLL borrow checker. The
`lang` attribute is currently limited to `stage1` as it requires a
compiler built with knowledge of the expected language items.
Update to a new pinning API.

The acronym is not descriptive unless one has seen it before.
* Rename the `oom` function to `handle_alloc_error`. It was **stabilized in 1.28**, so if we do this at all we need to land it this cycle.
* Rename `set_oom_hook` to `set_alloc_error_hook`
* Rename `take_oom_hook` to `take_alloc_error_hook`
Bikeshed: `alloc` v.s. `allocator`, `error` v.s. `failure`
As discussed in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/49668#issuecomment-384893456
and subsequent, there are use-cases where the OOM handler needs to know
the size of the allocation that failed. The alignment might also be a
cause for allocation failure, so providing it as well can be useful.
Partial future-proofing for Box<T, A>
In some ways, this is similar to @eddyb's PR #47043 that went stale, but doesn't cover everything. Notably, this still leaves Box internalized as a pointer in places, so practically speaking, only ZSTs can be practically added to the Box type with the changes here (the compiler ICEs otherwise).
The Box type is not changed here, that's left for the future because I want to test that further first, but this puts things in place in a way that hopefully will make things easier.
As of now, Box only contains a Unique pointer, so this is the sole
argument to box_free. Consequently, we remove the code supporting
the previous box_free signature. We however keep the old definition
for bootstrapping purpose.
94d1970bba moved the alloc::allocator
module to core::heap, moving e.g. Alloc and Layout out of the alloc
crate. While alloc::heap reexports them, it's better to use them from
where they really come from.
Thew `_raw` prefix is included because the fact that `Box`’s ownership
semantics are "dissolved" or recreated seem more important than the exact
parameter type or return type.
After discussing [1] today with @pnkfelix and @Gankro,
we concluded that it’s ok for drop checking not to be much smarter
than the current `#[may_dangle]` design which requires an explicit
unsafe opt-in.

There are a few exceptions to the rule that Arc/Rc are immutable. Rather
than dig into the details, add "generally" to hint at this difference,
as it's kind of a distraction at this point in the docs.
Additionally, Arc's docs were slightly different here generally, so add
in both the existing language and the exception.
Fixes#44105
Implement downcast the like it exists for Box.
The implementation avoids using into_raw/from_raw, because the pointer
arithmetic which should cancel does not seem to optimize out at the
moment.
Since Rc<T> is never Send, only Rc<Any> and not Rc<Any + Send>
implements downcast.
Implements RFC 1845, adding implementations of:
* `From<&[T]>` for `Rc<[T]>`
* `From<&str>` for `Rc<str>`
* `From<String>` for `Rc<str>`
* `From<Box<T: ?Sized>>` for `Rc<T>`
* `From<Vec<T>>` for `Rc<[T]>`
* and likewise for `Arc<_>`
Also removes now-obsolete internal methods `Rc::__from_array` and
`Rc::__from_str`, replacing their use with `Rc::from`.
This PR is an implementation of [RFC 1974] which specifies a new method of
defining a global allocator for a program. This obsoletes the old
`#![allocator]` attribute and also removes support for it.
[RFC 1974]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/197
The new `#[global_allocator]` attribute solves many issues encountered with the
`#![allocator]` attribute such as composition and restrictions on the crate
graph itself. The compiler now has much more control over the ABI of the
allocator and how it's implemented, allowing much more freedom in terms of how
this feature is implemented.

This commit
* Refactors the collect_lib_features function to work in a
non-checking mode (no bad pointer needed, and list of
lang features).
* Introduces checking whether unstable/stable tags for a
given feature have inconsistent tracking issues.
* Fixes such inconsistencies throughout the codebase.
It was decided in the RFC discussion https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1954 to make the function call syntax Rc::clone(&foo) the idiomatic way to clone a reference counted pointer (over the method call syntax foo.clone(). This change updates the documentation of Rc, Arc and their respoective Weak pointers to reflect it and bring more exposure to the existence of the function call syntax.
this avoids parsing item attributes on each call to `item_attrs`, which takes
off 33% (!) of translation time and 50% (!) of trans-item collection time.
This reverts commit 7f1d1c6d9a.
The original commit was created because mdBook and rustdoc had
different generation algorithms for header links; now with
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/39966 , the algorithms
are the same. So let's undo this change.
... when I came across this problem, I said "eh, this isn't fun,
but it doesn't take that long." I probably should have just actually
taken the time to fix upstream, given that they were amenable. Oh
well!
Add `{into,from}_raw` to Rc and Arc
These methods convert to and from a `*const T` for `Rc` and `Arc` similar to the way they work on `Box`. The only slight complication is that `from_raw` needs to offset the pointer back to find the beginning of the `RcBox`/`ArcInner`.
I felt this is a fairly small addition, filling in a gap (when compared to `Box`) so it wouldn't need an RFC. The motivation is primarily for FFI.
(I'll create an issue and update a PR with the issue number if reviewers agree with the change in principle **Edit: done #37197**)
~~Edit: This was initially `{into,from}_raw` but concerns were raised about the possible footgun if mixed with the methods of the same name of `Box`.~~
Edit: This was went from `{into,from}_raw` to `{into,from}_inner_raw` then back to `{into,from}_raw` during review.
The original description suggests that the original `Rc<T>` itself is downgraded, which doesn't seem to be what the code does. At the same time, `Rc` is one of those types that can do weird things with only a shared reference, so I thought it would be good to be clear.
