expressions.][79270] + This has been technically possible since 1.38.0, as it was unintentionally stabilized. +- [Assignments to `ManuallyDrop` union fields are now considered safe.][78068] + +Compiler +----------------------- +- [Added tier 3\* support for the `armv5te-unknown-linux-uclibceabi` target.][78142] +- [Added tier 3 support for the `aarch64-apple-ios-macabi` target.][77484] +- [The `x86_64-unknown-freebsd` is now built with the full toolset.][79484] + +\* Refer to Rust's [platform support page][forge-platform-support] for more +information on Rust's tiered platform support. + +Libraries +----------------------- + +- [`proc_macro::Punct` now implements `PartialEq`.][78636] +- [`ops::{Index, IndexMut}` are now implemented for fixed sized arrays of any length.][74989] +- [On Unix platforms, the `std::fs::File` type now has a "niche" of `-1`.][74699] + This value cannot be a valid file descriptor, and now means `Option` takes + up the same amount of space as `File`. + +Stabilized APIs +--------------- + +- [`bool::then`] +- [`btree_map::Entry::or_insert_with_key`] +- [`f32::clamp`] +- [`f64::clamp`] +- [`hash_map::Entry::or_insert_with_key`] +- [`Ord::clamp`] +- [`RefCell::take`] +- [`slice::fill`] +- [`UnsafeCell::get_mut`] + +The following previously stable methods are now `const`. + +- [`IpAddr::is_ipv4`] +- [`IpAddr::is_ipv6`] +- [`Layout::size`] +- [`Layout::align`] +- [`Layout::from_size_align`] +- `pow` for all integer types. +- `checked_pow` for all integer types. +- `saturating_pow` for all integer types. +- `wrapping_pow` for all integer types. +- `next_power_of_two` for all unsigned integer types. +- `checked_power_of_two` for all unsigned integer types. + +Cargo +----------------------- + +- [Added the `[build.rustc-workspace-wrapper]` option.][cargo/8976] + 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.][cargo/8973] +- [Added the `--workspace` flag to the `cargo update` command.][cargo/8725] + +Misc +---- + +- [The search results tab and the help button are focusable with keyboard in rustdoc.][79896] +- [Running tests will now print the total time taken to execute.][75752] + +Compatibility Notes +------------------- + +- [The `compare_and_swap` method on atomics has been deprecated.][79261] It's + recommended to use the `compare_exchange` and `compare_exchange_weak` methods instead. +- [Changes in how `TokenStream`s are checked have fixed some cases where you could write + unhygenic `macro_rules!` macros.][79472] +- [`#![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.][79003] +- [Overriding a `forbid` lint at the same level that it was set is now a hard error.][78864] +- [Dropped support for all cloudabi targets.][78439] +- [You can no longer intercept `panic!` calls by supplying your own macro.][78343] 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.][78296] + +[74989]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/74989 +[79261]:
