- [Stabilize `raw-dylib`, `link_ordinal`, `import_name_type` and `-Cdlltool`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/109677/)
- [Uplift `clippy::{drop,forget}_{ref,copy}` lints.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/109732/)

<a id="1.71.0-Compiler"></a>
Compiler
--------
- [Evaluate place expression in `PlaceMention`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104844/),

- [Update the version of musl used on `*-linux-musl` targets to 1.2.3](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/107129/),
enabling [time64](https://musl.libc.org/time64.html) on 32-bit systems.
- [Stabilize `debugger_visualizer`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/108668/)
for embedding metadata like Microsoft's Natvis.

Libraries
---------
- [Remove structural match from `TypeId`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/103291/)
- [Loosen `From<&[T]> for Box<[T]>` bound to `T: Clone`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/103406/)
- [Remove unnecessary `T: Send` bound](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/111134/)
in `Error for mpsc::SendError<T>` and `TrySendError<T>`.
- [Fix docs for `alloc::realloc`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/108630/)
to match `Layout` requirements that the size must not exceed `isize::MAX`.
- [Document `const {}` syntax for `std::thread_local`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/110620/)
This syntax was stabilized in Rust 1.59, but not previously mentioned in release notes.

Cargo
-----
- [Allow named debuginfo options in `Cargo.toml`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11958/)
- [Add `workspace_default_members` to the output of `cargo metadata`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11978/)
- [`cargo add` now considers `rust-version` when selecting packages.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/12078/)
- [Automatically inherit workspace fields when running `cargo new`/`cargo init`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/12069/)
<a id="1.71.0-Rustdoc"></a>
Rustdoc
-------
- [Add a new `rustdoc::unescaped_backticks` lint for broken inline code.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105848/)
- [Support strikethrough with single tildes.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/111152/) (`~~old~~` vs. `~new~`)
<a id="1.71.0-Misc"></a>
Misc
----
<a id="1.71.0-Compatibility-Notes"></a>
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [Add a `sysroot` crate to represent the standard library crates.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/108865/)
This does not affect stable users, but may require adjustment in tools that build their own standard library.
- [Cargo optimizes its usage under `rustup`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11917/) When
Cargo detects it will run `rustc` pointing to a rustup proxy, it'll try bypassing the proxy and
use the underlying binary directly. There are assumptions around the interaction with rustup and
`RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN`. However, it's not expected to affect normal users.
- [When querying a package, Cargo tries only the original name, all hyphens, and all underscores to
handle misspellings.](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/12083/) Previously, Cargo tried each
combination of hyphens and underscores, causing excessive requests to crates.io.
- Cargo now [disallows `RUSTUP_HOME`](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/12101/) and
[`RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN`](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/12107/) in the `[env]` configuration
table. This is considered to be not a use case Cargo would like to support, since it will likely
cause problems or lead to confusion.

Internal Changes
----------------
These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they represent
significant improvements to the performance or internals of rustc and related
tools.
