![]() unstably allow constants to refer to statics and read from immutable statics I am not aware of any fundamental reason why we cannot allow constants to mention statics. What we really need is that constants do not *read from* statics that can change their value: - This would break the principle that "constants behave as-if their expression was inlined everywhere and executed at runtime". This is enforced by halting const-eval interpretation when a read from a mutable global occurs. - When building a valtree we want to be sure that the constant and everything it refers to is truly immutable. This is enforced by aborting valtree construction when a read from a mutable global occurs. r? `@oli-obk` -- if you are okay with experimenting with this feature, I will create a tracking issue. Based on and blocked on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/119044; only the last commit is new. |
