- Update to version 1.53:
+ Language
- [You can now use unicode for identifiers.][83799] This allows multilingual
identifiers but still doesn't allow glyphs that are not considered characters
such as `◆` or `🦀`. More specifically you can now use any identifier that
matches the UAX #31 "Unicode Identifier and Pattern Syntax" standard. This
is the same standard as languages like Python, however Rust uses NFC
normalization which may be different from other languages.
- [You can now specify "or patterns" inside pattern matches.][79278]
Previously you could only use `|` (OR) on complete patterns. E.g.
```rust
let x = Some(2u8);
// Before
matches!(x, Some(1) | Some(2));
// Now
matches!(x, Some(1 | 2));
```
- [Added the `:pat_param` `macro_rules!` matcher.][83386] This matcher
has the same semantics as the `:pat` matcher. This is to allow `:pat`
to change semantics to being a pattern fragment in a future edition.
+ Compiler
- [Updated the minimum external LLVM version to LLVM 10.][83387]
- [Added Tier 3\* support for the `wasm64-unknown-unknown` target.][80525]
- [Improved debuginfo for closures and async functions on Windows MSVC.][83941]
\* Refer to Rust's [platform support page][platform-support-doc] for more
information on Rust's tiered platform support.
+ Libraries
- [Abort messages will now forward to `android_set_abort_message` on
Android platforms when available.][81469]
- [`slice::IterMut<'_, T>` now implements `AsRef<[T]>`][82771]

- Update to version 1.52.1:
- This release works around broken builds on 1.52.0, which are caused by newly
added verification. The bugs this verification detects are present in all
Rust versions, and can trigger miscompilations in incremental builds, so
downgrading to a prior stable version is not a fix.
- What should a Rust programmer do in response?
- upgrade to 1.52.1
- deleting your incremental compilation cache (e.g. by running cargo clean)
- forcing incremental compilation to be disabled, by setting
CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 in your environment or build.incremental to false in
the config.toml.

- Update to version 1.52:
+ Language
- [Added the `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` lint, which checks whether the unsafe code
in an `unsafe fn` is wrapped in a `unsafe` block.][79208] This lint
is allowed by default, and may become a warning or hard error in a
future edition.
- [You can now cast mutable references to arrays to a pointer of the same type as
the element.][81479]
+ Compiler
- [Upgraded the default LLVM to LLVM 12.][81451]
- Added tier 3\* support for the following targets.

- Update to version 1.51:
+ Language
- [You can now parameterize items such as functions, traits, and `struct`s by constant
values in addition to by types and lifetimes.][79135] Also known as "const generics"
E.g. you can now write the following. Note: Only values of primitive integers,
`bool`, or `char` types are currently permitted.
+ Compiler
- [Added the `-Csplit-debuginfo` codegen option for macOS platforms.][79570]
This option controls whether debug information is split across multiple files
or packed into a single file. **Note** This option is unstable on other platforms.
- [Added tier 3\* support for `aarch64_be-unknown-linux-gnu`,
`aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu_ilp32`, and `aarch64_be-unknown-linux-gnu_ilp32` targets.][81455]

- Update to version 1.50:
* This fixes build on armv7 - boo#1181643
+ Language
- You can now use const values for x in [x; N] array expressions.
This has been technically possible since 1.38.0, as it was
unintentionally stabilized.
- Assignments to ManuallyDrop<T> union fields are now considered safe.
+ Compiler
- Added tier 3* support for the armv5te-unknown-linux-uclibceabi
target.
- Added tier 3 support for the aarch64-apple-ios-macabi target.
- The x86_64-unknown-freebsd is now built with the full toolset.
- Dropped support for all cloudabi targets.
* Refer to Rust's platform support page for more information on
Rust's tiered platform support.
+ Libraries
- proc_macro::Punct now implements PartialEq<char>.
- ops::{Index, IndexMut} are now implemented for fixed sized
arrays of any length.
- On Unix platforms, the std::fs::File type now has a "niche" of -1.
This value cannot be a valid file descriptor, and now means Option<File>
takes up the same amount of space as File.

+ Cargo
- Added the [build.rustc-workspace-wrapper] option. This option
sets a wrapper to execute instead of rustc, for workspace members only.
- cargo:rerun-if-changed will now, if provided a directory,
scan the entire contents of that directory for changes.
- Added the --workspace flag to the cargo update command.
+ Misc
- The search results tab and the help button are focusable
with keyboard in rustdoc.
- Running tests will now print the total time taken to execute.
+ Compatibility Notes
- The compare_and_swap method on atomics has been deprecated.
It's recommended to use the compare_exchange and
compare_exchange_weak methods instead.
- Changes in how TokenStreams are checked have fixed some cases
where you could write unhygenic macro_rules! macros.
- #![test] as an inner attribute is now considered unstable
like other inner macro attributes, and reports an error by
default through the soft_unstable lint.
- Overriding a forbid lint at the same level that it was set
is now a hard error.
- You can no longer intercept panic! calls by supplying your own
macro. It's recommended to use the #[panic_handler] attribute
to provide your own implementation.
- Semi-colons after item statements (e.g. struct Foo {};)
now produce a warning.
- Add download_helper.sh to ease download of bootstrap packages

FWIW, I've now used rust-1.49.0 successfully to build both MozillaFirefox-84.0.2 and firefox-esr-78.6.1!
FWIW2, I raised the memory constraints for x86_64 from 8 to 11G, because otherwise a build got killed due to OOM too often.
This SR contains everything which got accepted for 1.48 just recently.
- Update to version 1.49.0
+ Language
- Unions can now implement Drop, and you can now have a field in
a union with ManuallyDrop<T>.
- You can now cast uninhabited enums to integers.
- You can now bind by reference and by move in patterns. This
allows you to selectively borrow individual components of a type.
E.g.
#[derive(Debug)]
struct Person {
name: String,
age: u8,
}
let person = Person {
name: String::from("Alice"),
age: 20,
};
// `name` is moved out of person, but `age` is referenced.
let Person { name, ref age } = person;
println!("{} {}", name, age);
+ Compiler
- Added tier 1* support for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu.
- Added tier 2 support for aarch64-apple-darwin.
- Added tier 2 support for aarch64-pc-windows-msvc.
- Added tier 3 support for mipsel-unknown-none.
- Raised the minimum supported LLVM version to LLVM 9.
- Output from threads spawned in tests is now captured.
- Change os and vendor values to "none" and "unknown" for some targets
* Refer to Rust's platform support page for more information on Rust's
tiered platform support.
+ Libraries
- RangeInclusive now checks for exhaustion when calling contains and
indexing.
- ToString::to_string now no longer shrinks the internal buffer in
the default implementation.
- ops::{Index, IndexMut} are now implemented for fixed sized arrays
of any length.
+ Stabilized APIs
- slice::select_nth_unstable
- slice::select_nth_unstable_by
- slice::select_nth_unstable_by_key
The following previously stable methods are now const.
- Poll::is_ready
- Poll::is_pending
+ Cargo
- Building a crate with cargo-package should now be independently
reproducible.
- cargo-tree now marks proc-macro crates.
- Added CARGO_PRIMARY_PACKAGE build-time environment variable. This
variable will be set if the crate being built is one the user
selected to build, either with -p or through defaults.
- You can now use glob patterns when specifying packages & targets.
+ Compatibility Notes
- Demoted i686-unknown-freebsd from host tier 2 to target tier 2
support.
- Macros that end with a semi-colon are now treated as statements
even if they expand to nothing.
- Rustc will now check for the validity of some built-in attributes
on enum variants. Previously such invalid or unused attributes
could be ignored.
- Leading whitespace is stripped more uniformly in documentation
comments, which may change behavior. You read this post about
the changes for more details.
- Trait bounds are no longer inferred for associated types.
+ Internal Only
These changes provide no direct user facing benefits, but
represent significant improvements to the internals and overall
performance of rustc and related tools.
- rustc's internal crates are now compiled using the initial-exec
Thread Local Storage model.
- Calculate visibilities once in resolve.
- Added system to the llvm-libunwind bootstrap config option.
- Added --color for configuring terminal color support to bootstrap.
- Rebased patches:
+ ignore-Wstring-conversion.patch (location)
