Version 1.48.0 (2020-11-19)
==========================
Language
--------
- [The `unsafe` keyword is now syntactically permitted on modules.][75857] This
is still rejected *semantically*, but can now be parsed by procedural macros.
Compiler
--------
- [Stabilised the `-C link=<yes|no>`][76158] Which tells `rustc` whether to link
its own libraries or to rely on a external linker. (supported only on
`windows-gnu`, `linux-musl`, and `wasi` platforms.)
- [You can now use `-C target-feature=+crt-static` on `linux-gnu` targets.][77386]
- [Added tier 2\* support for `aarch64-unknown-linux-musl`.][76420]
Libraries
---------
- [`io::Write` is now implemented for `&ChildStdin` `&Sink`, `&Stdout`,
and `&Stderr`.][76275]
- [All arrays now implement `TryFrom<Vec<T>>`.][76310]
- [The `matches!` macro now supports having a trailing comma.][74880]
- [`Vec<A>` now implements `PartialEq<[B]>` where `A: PartialEq<B>`.][74194]
- [Nearly all of `Cell`'s panicking functions now use the `#[track_caller]`
attribute.][77055]
Stabilized APIs
---------------
- [`slice::as_ptr_range`]
- [`slice::as_mut_ptr_range`]
- [`VecDeque::make_contiguous`]
- [`future::pending`]
- [`future::ready`]
The following previously stable methods are now `const fn`'s:
- [`Option::is_some`]
- [`Option::is_none`]
- [`Option::as_ref`]
- [`Result::is_ok`]
- [`Result::is_err`]
- [`Result::as_ref`]
- [`Ordering::reverse`]
- [`Ordering::then`]
Cargo
-----
Misc
----
- [You can now link to different items in `rustdoc` using the intra-doc link
syntax.][74430] E.g. ``/// Uses [`std::future`] `` will automatically generate
a link to `std::future`'s documentation. See ["Linking to items by
name"][intradoc-links] for more information.
- [You can now specify `#[doc(alias = "<alias>")]` on items to add search aliases
when searching through `rustdoc`'s UI.][75740]
- [You can now use `rustup install <major>.<minor>` to specify installing the
latest availeble patch of that minor version of the toolchain.][76107] E.g.
`rustup install 1.45` would install `1.45.2`, and `1.46` would install `1.46.0`.
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [`const fn`s are now implicitly promoted to `const`.][75502] Meaning that it
will only warn if your code fails `const` evaluation, and not produce an error.
- [Associated type bindings on trait objects are now verified to meet the bounds
declared on the trait when checking that they implement the trait.][27675]
- [When traits bounds on associated types or opaque types are ambiguous the
compiler no longer makes an arbitrary choice on which bound to use.][54121]
- [Fixed recursive nonterminals not being expended in macros during
pretty-print/reparse check.][77153] This may cause errors if your macro wasn't
correctly handling recursive nonterminal tokens.
- [`&mut` references to non zero-sized types are not longer promoted.][75585]
- [`rustc` will now warn if you use attributes like `#[link_name]` or `#[cold]`
in places where they have no effect.][73461]
- [Updated `_mm256_extract_epi8` and `_mm256_extract_epi16` signatures in
`arch::{x86, x86_64}` to return `i32` to match the vendor signatures.][73166]
Internal Only
-------------
- [Building `rustc` from source now uses `ninja` by default over `make`.][74922]
You can continue building with `make` by setting `ninja=false` in
your `config.toml`.
