Add `io::Error::other`
This PR adds a small utility constructor, `io::Error::other`, a shorthand for `io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::Other, err)`, something I find myself writing often.
For some concrete stats, a quick search on [grep.app](https://grep.app) shows that more than half of the uses of `io::Error::new` use `ErrorKind::Other`:
```
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind:: => 3,898 results
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind::Other => 2,186 results
```
Most of these problems originate in use of get_unchecked_mut.
When calling ptr::copy_nonoverlapping, using get_unchecked_mut for both
arguments causes the borrow created to make the second pointer to invalid the
first.
The pairs of identical MaybeUninit::slice_as_mut_ptr calls similarly
invalidate each other.
There was also a similar borrow invalidation problem with the use of
slice::get_unchecked_mut to derive the pointer for the CopyOnDrop.
link to pref_align_of tracking issue
If we are not going to remove this intrinsic (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/90877), I think we should at least have a place to centralize discussion around it, so here we go. Intrinsics don't have their own separate features and usually we instead use the public method for tracking it, but this one does not have such a method... so the tracking issue is just a regular link. (And then we sue it for the const part as well.)

Constify `bool::then{,_some}`
Note on `~const Drop`: it has no effect when called from runtime functions, when called from const contexts, the trait system ensures that the type can be dropped in const contexts.
Removed `in_band_lifetimes` from `library\proc_macro`
Issue [#91867](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/91867)
This is my first try, I followed the instructions given. Fixed all the errors that were thrown while compiling.
Compiled with stage 0,1, and 2 all of them compiled successfully.
Add `[T]::as_simd(_mut)`
SIMD-style optimizations are the most common use for `[T]::align_to(_mut)`, but that's `unsafe`. So these are *safe* wrappers around it, now that we have the `Simd` type available, to make it easier to use.
```rust
impl [T] {
pub fn as_simd<const LANES: usize>(&self) -> (&[T], &[Simd<T, LANES>], &[T]);
pub fn as_simd_mut<const LANES: usize>(&mut self) -> (&mut [T], &mut [Simd<T, LANES>], &mut [T]);
}
```
They're `cfg`'d out for miri because the `simd` module as a whole is unavailable there.
Readd track_caller to Result::from_residual
This is a followup on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87401 in and an attempt to move the issue towards resolution.
As part of the overhaul of the Try trait we removed the ability for errors to grab location information during propagation via `?` with the builtin `std::result::Result`. The previously linked issue has a fair bit of discussion into the reasons for and against the usage of `#[track_caller]` on the `FromResidual` impl on `Result` that I will do my best to summarize.

### For
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87401#issuecomment-915053533: Difficulties with using non `std::result::Result` like types
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87401#issuecomment-978355102: Inconsistency with functionality provided for recoverable (Result) and non-recoverable errors (panic), where panic provides a location and Result does not, pushing some users towards using panic
### Against
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/84277#issuecomment-885322833: concern that this will bloat callers that never use this data
---
Personally, I want to quantify the performance / bloat impact of re-adding this attribute, and fully evaluate the pros and cons before deciding if I need to switch `eyre` to have a custom `Result` type, which would also mean I need `try_trait_v2` to be stabilized, cc `@scottmcm.` If the performance impact is minor enough in the general case I think I would prefer that the default `Result` type has the ability to track location information for consistency with `panic` error reporting, and leave it to applications that need particularly high performance to handle the micro optimizations of introducing their own efficient custom Result type or matching manually.
Alternatively, I wonder if the performance penalty on code that doesn't use the location information on `FromResidual` could be mitigated via new optimizations.
Stabilize `iter::zip`
Hello all!
As the tracking issue (#83574) for `iter::zip` completed the final commenting period without any concerns being raised, I hereby submit this stabilization PR on the issue.
As the pull request that introduced the feature (#82917) states, the `iter::zip` function is a shorter way to zip two iterators. As it's generally a quality-of-life/ergonomic improvement, it has been integrated into the codebase without any trouble, and has been
used in many places across the rust compiler and standard library since March without any issues.
For more details, I would refer to `@cuviper's` original PR, or the [function's documentation](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/iter/fn.zip.html).

Stabilize asm! and global_asm!
Tracking issue: #72016
It's been almost 2 years since the original [RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2850) was posted and we're finally ready to stabilize this feature!
The main changes in this PR are:
- Removing `asm!` and `global_asm!` from the prelude as per the decision in #87228.
- Stabilizing the `asm` and `global_asm` features.
- Removing the unstable book pages for `asm` and `global_asm`. The contents are moved to the [reference](https://github.com/rust-lang/reference/pull/1105) and [rust by example](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-by-example/pull/1483).
- All links to these pages have been removed to satisfy the link checker. In a later PR these will be replaced with links to the reference or rust by example.
- Removing the automatic suggestion for using `llvm_asm!` instead of `asm!` if you're still using the old syntax, since it doesn't work anymore with `asm!` no longer being in the prelude. This only affects code that predates the old LLVM-style `asm!` being renamed to `llvm_asm!`.
- Updating `stdarch` and `compiler-builtins`.
- Updating all the tests.
r? `@joshtriplett`
This'll still go via slices eventually for large arrays, but this way slice comparisons to short arrays can use the same memcmp-avoidance tricks.
Added some tests for all the combinations to make sure I didn't accidentally infinitely-recurse something.
Make split_inclusive() on an empty slice yield an empty output
`[].split_inclusive()` currently yields a single, empty slice. That's
different from `"".split_inslusive()`, which yields no output at
all. I think that makes the slice version harder to use.
The case where I ran into this bug was when writing code for
generating a diff between two slices of bytes. I wanted to prefix
removed lines with "-" and a added lines with "+". Due to
`split_inclusive()`'s current behavior, that means that my code prints
just a "-" or "+" for empty files. I suspect most existing callers
have similar "bugs" (which would be fixed by this patch).
Closes#89716.
add BinaryHeap::try_reserve and BinaryHeap::try_reserve_exact
`try_reserve` of many collections were stablized in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87993 in 1.57.0. Add `try_reserve` for the rest collections such as `BinaryHeap` should be not controversial.
Use spare_capacity_mut instead of invalid unchecked indexing when joining str
This is a fix for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/91574
I think in general I'd prefer to see this code implemented with raw pointers or `MaybeUninit::write_slice`, but there's existing code in here based on copying from slice to slice, so converting everything from `&[T]` to `&[MaybeUninit<T>]` is less disruptive.
BTree: improve public descriptions and comments
BTreeSet has always used the term "value" next to and meaning the same thing as "elements" (in the mathematical sense but also used for key-value pairs in BTreeMap), while in the BTreeMap sense these "values" are known as "keys" and definitely not "values". Today I had enough of that.

Stabilize `ControlFlow::{is_break, is_continue}`
The type itself was stabilized in 1.55, but using it is not ergonomic without these helper functions. Stabilize them.
r? rust-lang/libs-api
They are also removed from the prelude as per the decision in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87228.
stdarch and compiler-builtins are updated to work with the new, stable
asm! and global_asm! macros.
Btree: assert more API compatibility
Introducing a member such as `BTreeSet::min()` would silently break compatibility if no code calls the existing `BTreeSet::min(set)`. `BTreeSet` is the only btree class silently bringing in stable members, apart from many occurrences of `#[derive(Debug)]` on iterators.
r? `@Mark-Simulacrum`
Make certain panicky stdlib functions behave better under panic_immediate_abort
The stdlib has a `panic_immediate_abort` feature that turns panics into immediate aborts, without any formatting/display logic. This feature was [introduced](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/55011) primarily for codesize-constrained situations.
Unfortunately, this win doesn't quite propagate to `Result::expect()` and `Result::unwrap()`, while the formatting machinery is reduced, `expect()` and `unwrap()` both call `unwrap_failed("msg", &err)` which has a signature of `fn unwrap_failed(msg: &str, error: &dyn fmt::Debug)` and is `#[inline(never)]`. This means that `unwrap_failed` will unconditionally construct a `dyn Debug` trait object even though the object is never used in the function.
Constructing a trait object (even if you never call a method on it!) forces rust to include the vtable and any dependencies. This means that in `panic_immediate_abort` mode, calling expect/unwrap on a Result will pull in a whole bunch of formatting code for the error type even if it's completely unused.
This PR swaps out the function with one that won't require a trait object such that it won't force the inclusion of vtables in the code. It also gates off `#[inline(never)]` in a bunch of other places where allowing the inlining of an abort may be useful (this kind of thing is already done elsewhere in the stdlib).
I don't know how to write a test for this; we don't really seem to have any tests for `panic_immediate_abort` anyway so perhaps it's fine as is.
Minor improvements to `future::join!`'s implementation
This is a follow-up from #91645, regarding [some remarks I made](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/187312-wg-async-foundations/topic/join!/near/264293660).
Mainly:
- it hides the recursive munching through a private `macro`, to avoid leaking such details (a corollary is getting rid of the need to use ``@`` to disambiguate);
- it uses a `match` binding, _outside_ the `async move` block, to better match the semantics from function-like syntax;
- it pre-pins the future before calling into `poll_fn`, since `poll_fn`, alone, cannot guarantee that its capture does not move (to clarify: I believe the previous code was sound, thanks to the outer layer of `async`. But I find it clearer / more robust to refactorings this way 🙂).
- it uses `@ibraheemdev's` very neat `.ready()?`;
- it renames `Took` to `Taken` for consistency with `Done` (tiny nit 😄).
~~TODO~~Done:
- [x] Add unit tests to enforce the function-like `:value` semantics are respected.

Replace iterator-based set construction by *Set::From<[T; N]>
This uses the array-based construction for `BtreeSet`s and `HashSet`s instead of first creating an iterator. I could also replace the `let mut a = Set::new(); a.insert(...);` fragments if desired.
Delete Utf8Lossy::from_str
This whole type is marked as being for str internals only, but this constructor is never used by str internals. If you had a &str already and wanted to lossy display it or iterate its lossy utf8 chunks, you would simply not use Utf8Lossy because the whole &str is known to be one contiguous valid utf8 chunk.
If code really does need to obtain a value of type &Utf8Lossy somewhere, and has only a &str, `Utf8Lossy::from_bytes(s.as_bytes())` remains available. As currently implemented, there is no performance penalty relative to `from_str` i.e. the Utf8Lossy does not "remember" that it was constructed using `from_str` to bypass later utf8 decoding.
Fix `Vec::reserve_exact` documentation
The documentation previously said the new capacity cannot overflow `usize`, but in fact it cannot exceed `isize::MAX`.
Update documentation to use `from()` to initialize `HashMap`s and `BTreeMap`s
As of Rust 1.56, `HashMap` and `BTreeMap` both have associated `from()` functions. I think using these in the documentation cleans things up a bit. It allows us to remove some of the `mut`s and avoids the Initialize-Then-Modify anti-pattern.
adjust const_eval_select documentation
"The Rust compiler assumes" indicates that this is language UB, but [I don't think that is a good idea](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/146212-t-compiler.2Fconst-eval/topic/const_eval_select.20assumptions). This UB would be very hard to test for and looks like a way-too-big footgun. ``@oli-obk`` suggested this is meant to be more like "library UB", so I tried to adjust the docs accordingly.
I also removed all references to "referential transparency". That is a rather vague concept used to mean many different things, and I honestly have no idea what exactly is meant by it in this specific instance. But I assume ``@fee1-dead`` had in their mind a property that all `const fn` code upholds, so by demanding that the runtime code and the const-time code are *observably equivalent*, whatever that property is would also be enforced here.

Update std::env::temp_dir to use GetTempPath2 on Windows when available.
As a security measure, Windows 11 introduces a new temporary directory API, GetTempPath2.
When the calling process is running as SYSTEM, a separate temporary directory
will be returned inaccessible to non-SYSTEM processes. For non-SYSTEM processes
the behavior will be the same as before.
This can help mitigate against attacks such as this one:
https://medium.com/csis-techblog/cve-2020-1088-yet-another-arbitrary-delete-eop-a00b97d8c3e2
Compatibility risk: Software which relies on temporary files to communicate between SYSTEM and non-SYSTEM
processes may be affected by this change. In many cases, such patterns may be vulnerable to the very
attacks the new API was introduced to harden against.
I'm unclear on the Rust project's tolerance for such change-of-behavior in the standard library. If anything,
this PR is meant to raise awareness of the issue and hopefully start the conversation.
How tested: Taking the example code from the documentation and running it through psexec (from SysInternals) on
Win10 and Win11.
On Win10:
C:\test>psexec -s C:\test\main.exe
<...>
Temporary directory: C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\
On Win11:
C:\test>psexec -s C:\test\main.exe
<...>
Temporary directory: C:\Windows\SystemTemp\
Implement concat_bytes!
This implements the unstable `concat_bytes!` macro, which has tracking issue #87555. It can be used like:
```rust
#![feature(concat_bytes)]
fn main() {
assert_eq!(concat_bytes!(), &[]);
assert_eq!(concat_bytes!(b'A', b"BC", [68, b'E', 70]), b"ABCDEF");
}
```
If strings or characters are used where byte strings or byte characters are required, it suggests adding a `b` prefix. If a number is used outside of an array it suggests arrayifying it. If a boolean is used it suggests replacing it with the numeric value of that number. Doubly nested arrays of bytes are disallowed.

Since that issue was filed, #56141 added a further clarification to the `OsString` docs. However the ffi docs may still leave the impression that an `OsStr` is in the platform native form. This PR aims to further emphasise that an `OsStr` is not necessarily a platform string.
Sync portable-simd to remove autosplats
This PR syncs portable-simd in up to a8385522ad in order to address the type inference breakages documented on nightly in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/90904 by removing the vector + scalar binary operations (called "autosplats", "broadcasting", or "rank promotion", depending on who you ask) that allow `{scalar} + &'_ {scalar}` to fail in some cases, because it becomes possible the programmer may have meant `{scalar} + &'_ {vector}`.
A few quality-of-life improvements make their way in as well:
- Lane counts can now go to 64, as LLVM seems to have fixed their miscompilation for those.
- `{i,u}8x64` to `__m512i` is now available.
- a bunch of `#[must_use]` notes appear throughout the module.
- Some implementations, mostly instances of `impl core::ops::{Op}<Simd> for Simd` that aren't `{vector} + {vector}` (e.g. `{vector} + &'_ {vector}`), leverage some generics and `where` bounds now to make them easier to understand by reducing a dozen implementations into one (and make it possible for people to open the docs on less burly devices).
- And some internal-only improvements.
None of these changes should affect a beta backport, only actual users of `core::simd` (and most aren't even visible in the programmatic sense), though I can extract an even more minimal changeset for beta if necessary. It seemed simpler to just keep moving forward.
Suggest try_reserve in try_reserve_exact
During developing #91529 , I found that `try_reserve_exact` suggests `reserve` for further insertions. I think it's a mistake by copy&paste, `try_reserve` is better here.
`array::IntoIter` has a bunch of really handy logic for dealing with partial arrays, but it's currently hamstrung by only being creatable from a fully-initialized array.
This PR adds two new constructors:
- a safe & const `empty`, since `[].into_iter()` gives `<T, 0>`, not `<T, N>`.
- an unsafe `from_raw_parts`, to allow experimentation with new uses.
(Slice & vec iterators don't need `from_raw_parts` because you `from_raw_parts` the slice or vec instead, but there's no useful way to made a `<[T; N]>::from_raw_parts`, so I think this is a reasonable place to have one.)
Add support for riscv64gc-unknown-freebsd
For https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/target-tier-policy.html#tier-3-target-policy:
* A tier 3 target must have a designated developer or developers (the "target maintainers") on record to be CCed when issues arise regarding the target. (The mechanism to track and CC such developers may evolve over time.)
For all Rust targets on FreeBSD, it's [rust@FreeBSD.org](mailto:rust@FreeBSD.org).
* Targets must use naming consistent with any existing targets; for instance, a target for the same CPU or OS as an existing Rust target should use the same name for that CPU or OS. Targets should normally use the same names and naming conventions as used elsewhere in the broader ecosystem beyond Rust (such as in other toolchains), unless they have a very good reason to diverge. Changing the name of a target can be highly disruptive, especially once the target reaches a higher tier, so getting the name right is important even for a tier 3 target.
Done.
* Target names should not introduce undue confusion or ambiguity unless absolutely necessary to maintain ecosystem compatibility. For example, if the name of the target makes people extremely likely to form incorrect beliefs about what it targets, the name should be changed or augmented to disambiguate it.
Done
* Tier 3 targets may have unusual requirements to build or use, but must not create legal issues or impose onerous legal terms for the Rust project or for Rust developers or users.
Done.
* The target must not introduce license incompatibilities.
Done.
* Anything added to the Rust repository must be under the standard Rust license (MIT OR Apache-2.0).
Fine with me.
* The target must not cause the Rust tools or libraries built for any other host (even when supporting cross-compilation to the target) to depend on any new dependency less permissive than the Rust licensing policy. This applies whether the dependency is a Rust crate that would require adding new license exceptions (as specified by the tidy tool in the rust-lang/rust repository), or whether the dependency is a native library or binary. In other words, the introduction of the target must not cause a user installing or running a version of Rust or the Rust tools to be subject to any new license requirements.
Done.
* If the target supports building host tools (such as rustc or cargo), those host tools must not depend on proprietary (non-FOSS) libraries, other than ordinary runtime libraries supplied by the platform and commonly used by other binaries built for the target. For instance, rustc built for the target may depend on a common proprietary C runtime library or console output library, but must not depend on a proprietary code generation library or code optimization library. Rust's license permits such combinations, but the Rust project has no interest in maintaining such combinations within the scope of Rust itself, even at tier 3.
Done.
* Targets should not require proprietary (non-FOSS) components to link a functional binary or library.
Done.
* "onerous" here is an intentionally subjective term. At a minimum, "onerous" legal/licensing terms include but are not limited to: non-disclosure requirements, non-compete requirements, contributor license agreements (CLAs) or equivalent, "non-commercial"/"research-only"/etc terms, requirements conditional on the employer or employment of any particular Rust developers, revocable terms, any requirements that create liability for the Rust project or its developers or users, or any requirements that adversely affect the livelihood or prospects of the Rust project or its developers or users.
Fine with me.
* Neither this policy nor any decisions made regarding targets shall create any binding agreement or estoppel by any party. If any member of an approving Rust team serves as one of the maintainers of a target, or has any legal or employment requirement (explicit or implicit) that might affect their decisions regarding a target, they must recuse themselves from any approval decisions regarding the target's tier status, though they may otherwise participate in discussions.
Ok.
* This requirement does not prevent part or all of this policy from being cited in an explicit contract or work agreement (e.g. to implement or maintain support for a target). This requirement exists to ensure that a developer or team responsible for reviewing and approving a target does not face any legal threats or obligations that would prevent them from freely exercising their judgment in such approval, even if such judgment involves subjective matters or goes beyond the letter of these requirements.
Ok.
* Tier 3 targets should attempt to implement as much of the standard libraries as possible and appropriate (core for most targets, alloc for targets that can support dynamic memory allocation, std for targets with an operating system or equivalent layer of system-provided functionality), but may leave some code unimplemented (either unavailable or stubbed out as appropriate), whether because the target makes it impossible to implement or challenging to implement. The authors of pull requests are not obligated to avoid calling any portions of the standard library on the basis of a tier 3 target not implementing those portions.
std is implemented.
* The target must provide documentation for the Rust community explaining how to build for the target, using cross-compilation if possible. If the target supports running tests (even if they do not pass), the documentation must explain how to run tests for the target, using emulation if possible or dedicated hardware if necessary.
Building is possible the same way as other Rust on FreeBSD targets.
* Tier 3 targets must not impose burden on the authors of pull requests, or other developers in the community, to maintain the target. In particular, do not post comments (automated or manual) on a PR that derail or suggest a block on the PR based on a tier 3 target. Do not send automated messages or notifications (via any medium, including via `@)` to a PR author or others involved with a PR regarding a tier 3 target, unless they have opted into such messages.
Ok.
* Backlinks such as those generated by the issue/PR tracker when linking to an issue or PR are not considered a violation of this policy, within reason.
