# Objective
Several of our built-in `Command` types are too public:
- `GetOrSpawn` is public, even though it only makes sense to call it
from within `Commands::get_or_spawn`.
- `Remove` and `RemoveResource` contain public `PhantomData` marker
fields.
## Solution
Remove `GetOrSpawn` and use an anonymous command. Make the marker fields
private.
---
## Migration Guide
The `Command` types `Remove` and `RemoveResource` may no longer be
constructed manually.
```rust
// Before:
commands.add(Remove::<T> {
entity: id,
phantom: PhantomData,
});
// After:
commands.add(Remove::<T>::new(id));
// Before:
commands.add(RemoveResource::<T> { phantom: PhantomData });
// After:
commands.add(RemoveResource::<T>::new());
```
The command type `GetOrSpawn` has been removed. It was not possible to
use this type outside of `bevy_ecs`.
# Objective
Add documentation to `Query` and `QueryState` errors in bevy_ecs
(`QuerySingleError`, `QueryEntityError`, `QueryComponentError`)
## Solution
- Change display message for `QueryEntityError::QueryDoesNotMatch`: this
error can also happen when the entity has a component which is filtered
out (with `Without<C>`)
- Fix wrong reference in the documentation of `Query::get_component` and
`Query::get_component_mut` from `QueryEntityError` to
`QueryComponentError`
- Complete the documentation of the three error enum variants.
- Add examples for `QueryComponentError::MissingReadAccess` and
`QueryComponentError::MissingWriteAccess`
- Add reference to `QueryState` in `QueryEntityError`'s documentation.
---
## Migration Guide
Expect `QueryEntityError::QueryDoesNotMatch`'s display message to
change? Not sure that counts.

# Objective
Fix#7833.
Safety comments in the multi-threaded executor don't really talk about
system world accesses, which makes it unclear if the code is actually
valid.
## Solution
Update the `System` trait to use `UnsafeWorldCell`. This type's API is
written in a way that makes it much easier to cleanly maintain safety
invariants. Use this type throughout the multi-threaded executor, with a
liberal use of safety comments.
---
## Migration Guide
The `System` trait now uses `UnsafeWorldCell` instead of `&World`. This
type provides a robust API for interior mutable world access.
- The method `run_unsafe` uses this type to manage world mutations
across multiple threads.
- The method `update_archetype_component_access` uses this type to
ensure that only world metadata can be used.
```rust
let mut system = IntoSystem::into_system(my_system);
system.initialize(&mut world);
// Before:
system.update_archetype_component_access(&world);
unsafe { system.run_unsafe(&world) }
// After:
system.update_archetype_component_access(world.as_unsafe_world_cell_readonly());
unsafe { system.run_unsafe(world.as_unsafe_world_cell()) }
```

# Objective
Follow-up to #8377.
As the system module has been refactored, there are many types that no
longer make sense to live in the files that they do:
- The `IntoSystem` trait is in `function_system.rs`, even though this
trait is relevant to all kinds of systems. Same for the `In<T>` type.
- `PipeSystem` is now just an implementation of `CombinatorSystem`, so
`system_piping.rs` no longer needs its own file.
## Solution
- Move `IntoSystem`, `In<T>`, and system piping combinators & tests into
the top-level `mod.rs` file for `bevy_ecs::system`.
- Move `PipeSystem` into `combinator.rs`.
# Objective
- Currently, it is not possible to call `.pipe` on a system that takes
any input other than `()`.
- The `IntoPipeSystem` trait is currently very difficult to parse due to
its use of generics.
## Solution
Remove the `IntoPipeSystem` trait, and move the `pipe` method to
`IntoSystem`.
---
## Changelog
- System piping has been made more flexible: it is now possible to call
`.pipe` on a system that takes an input.
## Migration Guide
The `IntoPipeSystem` trait has been removed, and the `pipe` method has
been moved to the `IntoSystem` trait.
```rust
// Before:
use bevy_ecs::system::IntoPipeSystem;
schedule.add_systems(first.pipe(second));
// After:
use bevy_ecs::system::IntoSystem;
schedule.add_systems(first.pipe(second));
```
# Objective
The implementation of `System::run_unsafe` for `FunctionSystem` requires
that the world is the same one used to initialize the system. However,
the `System` trait has no requirements that the world actually matches,
which makes this implementation unsound.
This was previously mentioned in
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7605#issuecomment-1426491871
Fixes part of #7833.
## Solution
Add the safety invariant that
`System::update_archetype_component_access` must be called prior to
`System::run_unsafe`. Since
`FunctionSystem::update_archetype_component_access` properly validates
the world, this ensures that `run_unsafe` is not called with a
mismatched world.
Most exclusive systems are not required to be run on the same world that
they are initialized with, so this is not a concern for them. Systems
formed by combining an exclusive system with a regular system *do*
require the world to match, however the validation is done inside of
`System::run` when needed.
# Objective
This PR attempts to improve query compatibility checks in scenarios
involving `Or` filters.
Currently, for the following two disjoint queries, Bevy will throw a
panic:
```
fn sys(_: Query<&mut C, Or<(With<A>, With<B>)>>, _: Query<&mut C, (Without<A>, Without<B>)>) {}
```
This PR addresses this particular scenario.
## Solution
`FilteredAccess::with` now stores a vector of `AccessFilters`
(representing a pair of `with` and `without` bitsets), where each member
represents an `Or` "variant".
Filters like `(With<A>, Or<(With<B>, Without<C>)>` are expected to be
expanded into `A * B + A * !C`.
When calculating whether queries are compatible, every `AccessFilters`
of a query is tested for incompatibility with every `AccessFilters` of
another query.

## Changelog
- Improved system and query data access compatibility checks in
scenarios involving `Or` filters

Non-breaking changes*
\* If merged after #8285
# Objective
The type `&World` is currently in an awkward place, since it has two
meanings:
1. Read-only access to the entire world.
2. Interior mutable access to the world; immutable and/or mutable access
to certain portions of world data.
This makes `&World` difficult to reason about, and surprising to see in
function signatures if one does not know about the interior mutable
property.
The type `UnsafeWorldCell` was added in #6404, which is meant to
alleviate this confusion by adding a dedicated type for interior mutable
world access. However, much of the engine still treats `&World` as an
interior mutable-ish type. One of those places is `SystemParam`.
## Solution
Modify `SystemParam::get_param` to accept `UnsafeWorldCell` instead of
`&World`. Simplify the safety invariants, since the `UnsafeWorldCell`
type encapsulates the concept of constrained world access.
---
## Changelog
`SystemParam::get_param` now accepts an `UnsafeWorldCell` instead of
`&World`. This type provides a high-level API for unsafe interior
mutable world access.
## Migration Guide
For manual implementers of `SystemParam`: the function `get_item` now
takes `UnsafeWorldCell` instead of `&World`. To access world data, use:
* `.get_entity()`, which returns an `UnsafeEntityCell` which can be used
to access component data.
* `get_resource()` and its variants, to access resource data.
# Objective
Follow-up to #8030.
Now that `SystemParam` and `WorldQuery` are implemented for
`PhantomData`, the `ignore` attributes are now unnecessary.
---
## Changelog
- Removed the attributes `#[system_param(ignore)]` and
`#[world_query(ignore)]`.
## Migration Guide
The attributes `#[system_param(ignore)]` and `#[world_query]` ignore
have been removed. If you were using either of these with `PhantomData`
fields, you can simply remove the attribute:
```rust
#[derive(SystemParam)]
struct MyParam<'w, 's, Marker> {
...
// Before:
#[system_param(ignore)
_marker: PhantomData<Marker>,
// After:
_marker: PhantomData<Marker>,
}
#[derive(WorldQuery)]
struct MyQuery<Marker> {
...
// Before:
#[world_query(ignore)
_marker: PhantomData<Marker>,
// After:
_marker: PhantomData<Marker>,
}
```
If you were using this for another type that implements `Default`,
consider wrapping that type in `Local<>` (this only works for
`SystemParam`):
```rust
#[derive(SystemParam)]
struct MyParam<'w, 's> {
// Before:
#[system_param(ignore)]
value: MyDefaultType, // This will be initialized using `Default` each time `MyParam` is created.
// After:
value: Local<MyDefaultType>, // This will be initialized using `Default` the first time `MyParam` is created.
}
```
If you are implementing either trait and need to preserve the exact
behavior of the old `ignore` attributes, consider manually implementing
`SystemParam` or `WorldQuery` for a wrapper struct that uses the
`Default` trait:
```rust
// Before:
#[derive(WorldQuery)
struct MyQuery {
#[world_query(ignore)]
str: String,
}
// After:
#[derive(WorldQuery)
struct MyQuery {
str: DefaultQuery<String>,
}
pub struct DefaultQuery<T: Default>(pub T);
unsafe impl<T: Default> WorldQuery for DefaultQuery<T> {
type Item<'w> = Self;
...
unsafe fn fetch<'w>(...) -> Self::Item<'w> {
Self(T::default())
}
}
```
# Objective
Our regression tests for `SystemParam` currently consist of a bunch of
loosely dispersed struct definitions. This is messy, and doesn't fully
test their functionality.
## Solution
Group the struct definitions into functions annotated with `#[test]`.
This not only makes the module more organized, but it allows us to call
`assert_is_system`, which has the potential to catch some bugs that
would have been missed with the old approach. Also, this approach is
consistent with how `WorldQuery` regression tests are organized.
# Objective
When using `PhantomData` fields with the `#[derive(SystemParam)]` or
`#[derive(WorldQuery)]` macros, the user is required to add the
`#[system_param(ignore)]` attribute so that the macro knows to treat
that field specially. This is undesirable, since it makes the macro more
fragile and less consistent.
## Solution
Implement `SystemParam` and `WorldQuery` for `PhantomData`. This makes
the `ignore` attributes unnecessary.
Some internal changes make the derive macro compatible with types that
have invariant lifetimes, which fixes#8192. From what I can tell, this
fix requires `PhantomData` to implement `SystemParam` in order to ensure
that all of a type's generic parameters are always constrained.
---
## Changelog
+ Implemented `SystemParam` and `WorldQuery` for `PhantomData<T>`.
+ Fixed a miscompilation caused when invariant lifetimes were used with
the `SystemParam` macro.
# Objective
I ran into a case where I need to create a `CommandQueue` and push
standard `Command` actions like `Insert` or `Remove` to it manually. I
saw that `Remove` looked as follows:
```rust
struct Remove<T> {
entity: Entity,
phantom: PhantomData<T>
}
```
so naturally, I tried to use `Remove::<Foo>::from(entity)` but it didn't
exist. We need to specify the `PhantomData` explicitly when creating
this command action. The same goes for `RemoveResource` and
`InitResource`
## Solution
This PR implements the following:
- `From<Entity>` for `Remove<T>`
- `Default` for `RemoveResource` and `InitResource`
- use these traits in the implementation of methods of `Commands`
- rename `phantom` field on the structs above to `_phantom` to have a
more uniform field naming scheme for the command actions
---
## Changelog
> This section is optional. If this was a trivial fix, or has no
externally-visible impact, you can delete this section.
- Added: implemented `From<Entity>` for `Remove<T>` and `Default` for
`RemoveResource` and `InitResource` for ergonomics

# Objective
Documentation should no longer be using pre-stageless terminology to
avoid confusion.
## Solution
- update all docs referring to stages to instead refer to sets/schedules
where appropriate
- also mention `apply_system_buffers` for anything system-buffer-related
that previously referred to buffers being applied "at the end of a
stage"
# Objective
Fix#1727Fix#8010
Meta types generated by the `SystemParam` and `WorldQuery` derive macros
can conflict with user-defined types if they happen to have the same
name.
## Solution
In order to check if an identifier would conflict with user-defined
types, we can just search the original `TokenStream` passed to the macro
to see if it contains the identifier (since the meta types are defined
in an anonymous scope, it's only possible for them to conflict with the
struct definition itself). When generating an identifier for meta types,
we can simply check if it would conflict, and then add additional
characters to the name until it no longer conflicts with anything.
The `WorldQuery` "Item" and read-only structs are a part of a module's
public API, and thus it is intended for them to conflict with
user-defined types.
# Objective
The function `assert_is_system` is used in documentation tests to ensure
that example code actually produces valid systems. Currently,
`assert_is_system` just checks that each function parameter implements
`SystemParam`. To further check the validity of the system, we should
initialize the passed system so that it will be checked for conflicting
accesses. Not only does this enforce the validity of our examples, but
it provides a convenient way to demonstrate conflicting accesses via a
`should_panic` example, which is nicely rendered by rustdoc:
## Solution
Initialize the system with an empty world to trigger its internal access
conflict checks.
---
## Changelog
The function `bevy::ecs::system::assert_is_system` now panics when
passed a system with conflicting world accesses, as does
`assert_is_read_only_system`.
## Migration Guide
The functions `assert_is_system` and `assert_is_read_only_system` (in
`bevy_ecs::system`) now panic if the passed system has invalid world
accesses. Any tests that called this function on a system with invalid
accesses will now fail. Either fix the system's conflicting accesses, or
specify that the test is meant to fail:
1. For regular tests (that is, functions annotated with `#[test]`), add
the `#[should_panic]` attribute to the function.
2. For documentation tests, add `should_panic` to the start of the code
block: ` ```should_panic`
# Objective
- A more intuitive distinction between the two. `remove_intersection` is verbose and unclear.
- `EntityMut::remove` and `Commands::remove` should match.
## Solution
- What the title says.
---
## Migration Guide
Before
```rust
fn clear_children(parent: Entity, world: &mut World) {
if let Some(children) = world.entity_mut(parent).remove::<Children>() {
for &child in &children.0 {
world.entity_mut(child).remove_intersection::<Parent>();
}
}
}
```
After
```rust
fn clear_children(parent: Entity, world: &mut World) {
if let Some(children) = world.entity_mut(parent).take::<Children>() {
for &child in &children.0 {
world.entity_mut(child).remove::<Parent>();
}
}
}
```
# Objective
While we use `#[doc(hidden)]` to try and hide marker generics from the user, these types reveal themselves in compiler errors, adding visual noise and confusion.
## Solution
Replace the `AlreadyWasSystem` marker generic with `()`, to reduce visual noise in error messages. This also makes it possible to return `impl Condition<()>` from combinators.
For function systems, use their function signature as the marker type. This should drastically improve the legibility of some error messages.
The `InputMarker` type has been removed, since it is unnecessary.
# Objective
Several places in the ECS use marker generics to avoid overlapping trait implementations, but different places alternately refer to it as `Params` and `Marker`. This is potentially confusing, since it might not be clear that the same pattern is being used. Additionally, users might be misled into thinking that the `Params` type corresponds to the `SystemParam`s of a system.
## Solution
Rename `Params` to `Marker`.
# Objective
Fix#7584.
## Solution
Add an abstraction for creating custom system combinators with minimal boilerplate. Use this to implement AND/OR combinators. Use this to simplify the implementation of `PipeSystem`.
## Example
Feel free to bikeshed on the syntax.
I chose the names `and_then`/`or_else` to emphasize the fact that these short-circuit, while I chose method syntax to empasize that the arguments are *not* treated equally.
```rust
app.add_systems((
my_system.run_if(resource_exists::<R>().and_then(resource_equals(R(0)))),
our_system.run_if(resource_exists::<R>().or_else(resource_exists::<S>())),
));
```
---
## Todo
- [ ] Decide on a syntax
- [x] Write docs
- [x] Write tests
## Changelog
+ Added the extension methods `.and_then(...)` and `.or_else(...)` to run conditions, which allows combining run conditions with short-circuiting behavior.
+ Added the trait `Combine`, which can be used with the new `CombinatorSystem` to create system combinators with custom behavior.
# Objective
- Fixes#5432
- Fixes#6680
## Solution
- move code responsible for generating the `impl TypeUuid` from `type_uuid_derive` into a new function, `gen_impl_type_uuid`.
- this allows the new proc macro, `impl_type_uuid`, to call the code for generation.
- added struct `TypeUuidDef` and implemented `syn::Parse` to allow parsing of the input for the new macro.
- finally, used the new macro `impl_type_uuid` to implement `TypeUuid` for the standard library (in `crates/bevy_reflect/src/type_uuid_impl.rs`).
- fixes#6680 by doing a wrapping add of the param's index to its `TYPE_UUID`

# Objective
The `SystemParamFunction` (and `ExclusiveSystemParamFunction`) trait is very cumbersome to use, due to it requiring four generic type parameters. These are currently all used as marker parameters to satisfy rust's trait coherence rules.
### Example (before)
```rust
pub fn pipe<AIn, Shared, BOut, A, AParam, AMarker, B, BParam, BMarker>(
mut system_a: A,
mut system_b: B,
) -> impl FnMut(In<AIn>, ParamSet<(AParam, BParam)>) -> BOut
where
A: SystemParamFunction<AIn, Shared, AParam, AMarker>,
B: SystemParamFunction<Shared, BOut, BParam, BMarker>,
AParam: SystemParam,
BParam: SystemParam,
```
## Solution
Turn the `In`, `Out`, and `Param` generics into associated types. Merge the marker types together to retain coherence.
### Example (after)
```rust
pub fn pipe<A, B, AMarker, BMarker>(
mut system_a: A,
mut system_b: B,
) -> impl FnMut(In<A::In>, ParamSet<(A::Param, B::Param)>) -> B::Out
where
A: SystemParamFunction<AMarker>,
B: SystemParamFunction<BMarker, In = A::Out>,
```
---
## Changelog
+ Simplified the `SystemParamFunction` and `ExclusiveSystemParamFunction` traits.
## Migration Guide
For users of the `SystemParamFunction` trait, the generic type parameters `In`, `Out`, and `Param` have been turned into associated types. The same has been done with the `ExclusiveSystemParamFunction` trait.
# Objective
Run conditions are a special type of system that do not modify the world, and which return a bool. Due to the way they are currently implemented, you can *only* use bare function systems as a run condition. Among other things, this prevents the use of system piping with run conditions. This make very basic constructs impossible, such as `my_system.run_if(my_condition.pipe(not))`.
Unblocks a basic solution for #7202.
## Solution
Add the trait `ReadOnlySystem`, which is implemented for any system whose parameters all implement `ReadOnlySystemParam`. Allow any `-> bool` system implementing this trait to be used as a run condition.
---
## Changelog
+ Added the trait `ReadOnlySystem`, which is implemented for any `System` type whose parameters all implement `ReadOnlySystemParam`.
+ Added the function `bevy::ecs::system::assert_is_read_only_system`.
# Objective
One pattern to increase parallelism is deferred mutation: instead of directly mutating the world (and preventing other systems from running at the same time), you queue up operations to be applied to the world at the end of the stage. The most common example of this pattern uses the `Commands` SystemParam.
In order to avoid the overhead associated with commands, some power users may want to add their own deferred mutation behavior. To do this, you must implement the unsafe trait `SystemParam`, which interfaces with engine internals in a way that we'd like users to be able to avoid.
## Solution
Add the `Deferred<T>` primitive `SystemParam`, which encapsulates the deferred mutation pattern.
This can be combined with other types of `SystemParam` to safely and ergonomically create powerful custom types.
Essentially, this is just a variant of `Local<T>` which can run code at the end of the stage.
This type is used in the engine to derive `Commands` and `ParallelCommands`, which removes a bunch of unsafe boilerplate.
### Example
```rust
use bevy_ecs::system::{Deferred, SystemBuffer};
/// Sends events with a delay, but may run in parallel with other event writers.
#[derive(SystemParam)]
pub struct BufferedEventWriter<'s, E: Event> {
queue: Deferred<'s, EventQueue<E>>,
}
struct EventQueue<E>(Vec<E>);
impl<'s, E: Event> BufferedEventWriter<'s, E> {
/// Queues up an event to be sent at the end of this stage.
pub fn send(&mut self, event: E) {
self.queue.0.push(event);
}
}
// The `SystemBuffer` trait controls how [`Deferred`] gets applied at the end of the stage.
impl<E: Event> SystemBuffer for EventQueue<E> {
fn apply(&mut self, world: &mut World) {
let mut events = world.resource_mut::<Events<E>>();
for e in self.0.drain(..) {
events.send(e);
}
}
}
```
---
## Changelog
+ Added the `SystemParam` type `Deferred<T>`, which can be used to defer `World` mutations. Powered by the new trait `SystemBuffer`.
# Objective
- Implementing logic used by system params and `UnsafeWorldCell` on `&World` is sus since `&World` generally denotes shared read only access to world but this is a lie in the above situations. Move most/all logic that uses `&World` to mean `UnsafeWorldCell` onto `UnsafeWorldCell`
- Add a way to take a `&mut World` out of `UnsafeWorldCell` and use this in `WorldCell`'s `Drop` impl instead of a `UnsafeCell` field
---
## Changelog
- changed some `UnsafeWorldCell` methods to take `self` instead of `&self`/`&mut self` since there is literally no point to them doing that
- `UnsafeWorldCell::world` is now used to get immutable access to the whole world instead of just the metadata which can now be done via `UnsafeWorldCell::world_metadata`
- `UnsafeWorldCell::world_mut` now exists and can be used to get a `&mut World` out of `UnsafeWorldCell`
- removed `UnsafeWorldCell::storages` since that is probably unsound since storages contains the actual component/resource data not just metadata
## Migration guide
N/A none of the breaking changes here make any difference for a 0.9->0.10 transition since `UnsafeWorldCell` did not exist in 0.9
Huge thanks to @maniwani, @devil-ira, @hymm, @cart, @superdump and @jakobhellermann for the help with this PR.
# Objective
- Followup #6587.
- Minimal integration for the Stageless Scheduling RFC: https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/45
## Solution
- [x] Remove old scheduling module
- [x] Migrate new methods to no longer use extension methods
- [x] Fix compiler errors
- [x] Fix benchmarks
- [x] Fix examples
- [x] Fix docs
- [x] Fix tests
## Changelog
### Added
- a large number of methods on `App` to work with schedules ergonomically
- the `CoreSchedule` enum
- `App::add_extract_system` via the `RenderingAppExtension` trait extension method
- the private `prepare_view_uniforms` system now has a public system set for scheduling purposes, called `ViewSet::PrepareUniforms`
### Removed
- stages, and all code that mentions stages
- states have been dramatically simplified, and no longer use a stack
- `RunCriteriaLabel`
- `AsSystemLabel` trait
- `on_hierarchy_reports_enabled` run criteria (now just uses an ad hoc resource checking run condition)
- systems in `RenderSet/Stage::Extract` no longer warn when they do not read data from the main world
- `RunCriteriaLabel`
- `transform_propagate_system_set`: this was a nonstandard pattern that didn't actually provide enough control. The systems are already `pub`: the docs have been updated to ensure that the third-party usage is clear.
### Changed
- `System::default_labels` is now `System::default_system_sets`.
- `App::add_default_labels` is now `App::add_default_sets`
- `CoreStage` and `StartupStage` enums are now `CoreSet` and `StartupSet`
- `App::add_system_set` was renamed to `App::add_systems`
- The `StartupSchedule` label is now defined as part of the `CoreSchedules` enum
- `.label(SystemLabel)` is now referred to as `.in_set(SystemSet)`
- `SystemLabel` trait was replaced by `SystemSet`
- `SystemTypeIdLabel<T>` was replaced by `SystemSetType<T>`
- The `ReportHierarchyIssue` resource now has a public constructor (`new`), and implements `PartialEq`
- Fixed time steps now use a schedule (`CoreSchedule::FixedTimeStep`) rather than a run criteria.
- Adding rendering extraction systems now panics rather than silently failing if no subapp with the `RenderApp` label is found.
- the `calculate_bounds` system, with the `CalculateBounds` label, is now in `CoreSet::Update`, rather than in `CoreSet::PostUpdate` before commands are applied.
- `SceneSpawnerSystem` now runs under `CoreSet::Update`, rather than `CoreStage::PreUpdate.at_end()`.
- `bevy_pbr::add_clusters` is no longer an exclusive system
- the top level `bevy_ecs::schedule` module was replaced with `bevy_ecs::scheduling`
- `tick_global_task_pools_on_main_thread` is no longer run as an exclusive system. Instead, it has been replaced by `tick_global_task_pools`, which uses a `NonSend` resource to force running on the main thread.
## Migration Guide
- Calls to `.label(MyLabel)` should be replaced with `.in_set(MySet)`
- Stages have been removed. Replace these with system sets, and then add command flushes using the `apply_system_buffers` exclusive system where needed.
- The `CoreStage`, `StartupStage, `RenderStage` and `AssetStage` enums have been replaced with `CoreSet`, `StartupSet, `RenderSet` and `AssetSet`. The same scheduling guarantees have been preserved.
- Systems are no longer added to `CoreSet::Update` by default. Add systems manually if this behavior is needed, although you should consider adding your game logic systems to `CoreSchedule::FixedTimestep` instead for more reliable framerate-independent behavior.
- Similarly, startup systems are no longer part of `StartupSet::Startup` by default. In most cases, this won't matter to you.
- For example, `add_system_to_stage(CoreStage::PostUpdate, my_system)` should be replaced with
- `add_system(my_system.in_set(CoreSet::PostUpdate)`
- When testing systems or otherwise running them in a headless fashion, simply construct and run a schedule using `Schedule::new()` and `World::run_schedule` rather than constructing stages
- Run criteria have been renamed to run conditions. These can now be combined with each other and with states.
- Looping run criteria and state stacks have been removed. Use an exclusive system that runs a schedule if you need this level of control over system control flow.
- For app-level control flow over which schedules get run when (such as for rollback networking), create your own schedule and insert it under the `CoreSchedule::Outer` label.
- Fixed timesteps are now evaluated in a schedule, rather than controlled via run criteria. The `run_fixed_timestep` system runs this schedule between `CoreSet::First` and `CoreSet::PreUpdate` by default.
- Command flush points introduced by `AssetStage` have been removed. If you were relying on these, add them back manually.
- Adding extract systems is now typically done directly on the main app. Make sure the `RenderingAppExtension` trait is in scope, then call `app.add_extract_system(my_system)`.
- the `calculate_bounds` system, with the `CalculateBounds` label, is now in `CoreSet::Update`, rather than in `CoreSet::PostUpdate` before commands are applied. You may need to order your movement systems to occur before this system in order to avoid system order ambiguities in culling behavior.
- the `RenderLabel` `AppLabel` was renamed to `RenderApp` for clarity
- `App::add_state` now takes 0 arguments: the starting state is set based on the `Default` impl.
- Instead of creating `SystemSet` containers for systems that run in stages, simply use `.on_enter::<State::Variant>()` or its `on_exit` or `on_update` siblings.
- `SystemLabel` derives should be replaced with `SystemSet`. You will also need to add the `Debug`, `PartialEq`, `Eq`, and `Hash` traits to satisfy the new trait bounds.
- `with_run_criteria` has been renamed to `run_if`. Run criteria have been renamed to run conditions for clarity, and should now simply return a bool.
- States have been dramatically simplified: there is no longer a "state stack". To queue a transition to the next state, call `NextState::set`

## Points of Difficulty and Controversy
**Reviewers, please give feedback on these and look closely**
1. Default sets, from the RFC, have been removed. These added a tremendous amount of implicit complexity and result in hard to debug scheduling errors. They're going to be tackled in the form of "base sets" by @cart in a followup.
2. The outer schedule controls which schedule is run when `App::update` is called.
3. I implemented `Label for `Box<dyn Label>` for our label types. This enables us to store schedule labels in concrete form, and then later run them. I ran into the same set of problems when working with one-shot systems. We've previously investigated this pattern in depth, and it does not appear to lead to extra indirection with nested boxes.
4. `SubApp::update` simply runs the default schedule once. This sucks, but this whole API is incomplete and this was the minimal changeset.
5. `time_system` and `tick_global_task_pools_on_main_thread` no longer use exclusive systems to attempt to force scheduling order
6. Implemetnation strategy for fixed timesteps
7. `AssetStage` was migrated to `AssetSet` without reintroducing command flush points. These did not appear to be used, and it's nice to remove these bottlenecks.
8. Migration of `bevy_render/lib.rs` and pipelined rendering. The logic here is unusually tricky, as we have complex scheduling requirements.
## Future Work (ideally before 0.10)
- Rename schedule_v3 module to schedule or scheduling
- Add a derive macro to states, and likely a `EnumIter` trait of some form
- Figure out what exactly to do with the "systems added should basically work by default" problem
- Improve ergonomics for working with fixed timesteps and states
- Polish FixedTime API to match Time
- Rebase and merge #7415
- Resolve all internal ambiguities (blocked on better tools, especially #7442)
- Add "base sets" to replace the removed default sets.
# Objective
Removal events are unwieldy and require some knowledge of when to put systems that need to catch events for them, it is very easy to end up missing one and end up with memory leak-ish issues where you don't clean up after yourself.
## Solution
Consolidate removals with the benefits of `Events<...>` (such as double buffering and per system ticks for reading the events) and reduce the special casing of it, ideally I was hoping to move the removals to a `Resource` in the world, but that seems a bit more rough to implement/maintain because of double mutable borrowing issues.
This doesn't go the full length of change detection esque removal detection a la https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/44.
Just tries to make the current workflow a bit more user friendly so detecting removals isn't such a scheduling nightmare.
---
## Changelog
- RemovedComponents<T> is now backed by an `Events<Entity>` for the benefits of double buffering.
## Migration Guide
- Add a `mut` for `removed: RemovedComponents<T>` since we are now modifying an event reader internally.
- Iterating over removed components now requires `&mut removed_components` or `removed_components.iter()` instead of `&removed_components`.
# Objective
The trait method `SystemParam::apply` allows a `SystemParam` type to defer world mutations, which is internally used to apply `Commands` at the end of the stage. Any operations that require `&mut World` access must be deferred in this way, since parallel systems do not have exclusive access to the world.
The `ExclusiveSystemParam` trait (added in #6083) has an `apply` method which serves the same purpose. However, deferring mutations in this way does not make sense for exclusive systems since they already have `&mut World` access: there is no need to wait until a hard sync point, as the system *is* a hard sync point. World mutations can and should be performed within the body of the system.
## Solution
Remove the method. There were no implementations of this method in the engine.
---
## Changelog
*Note for maintainers: this changelog makes more sense if it's placed above the one for #6919.*
- Removed the method `ExclusiveSystemParamState::apply`.
## Migration Guide
*Note for maintainers: this migration guide makes more sense if it's placed above the one for #6919.*
The trait method `ExclusiveSystemParamState::apply` has been removed. If you have an exclusive system with buffers that must be applied, you should apply them within the body of the exclusive system.
# Objective
Fixes#7434.
This is my first time contributing to a Rust project, so please let me know if this wasn't the change intended by the linked issue.
## Solution
Adds a test with a system that panics to `bevy_ecs`.
I'm not sure if this is the intended panic message, but this is what the test currently results in:
```
thread 'system::tests::panic_inside_system' panicked at 'called `Option::unwrap()` on a `None` value', /Users/bjorn/workplace/bevy/crates/bevy_tasks/src/task_pool.rs:354:49
```
# Objective
Fix#7447.
The `SystemParam` derive uses the wrong lifetimes for ignored fields.
## Solution
Use type inference instead of explicitly naming the types of ignored fields. This allows the compiler to automatically use the correct lifetime.
# Objective
I found several words in code and docs are incorrect. This should be fixed.
## Solution
- Fix several minor typos

alternative to #5922, implements #5956
builds on top of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6402
# Objective
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/5956 goes into more detail, but the TLDR is:
- bevy systems ensure disjoint accesses to resources and components, and for that to work there are methods `World::get_resource_unchecked_mut(&self)`, ..., `EntityRef::get_mut_unchecked(&self)` etc.
- we don't have these unchecked methods for `by_id` variants, so third-party crate authors cannot build their own safe disjoint-access abstractions with these
- having `_unchecked_mut` methods is not great, because in their presence safe code can accidentally violate subtle invariants. Having to go through `world.as_unsafe_world_cell().unsafe_method()` forces you to stop and think about what you want to write in your `// SAFETY` comment.
The alternative is to keep exposing `_unchecked_mut` variants for every operation that we want third-party crates to build upon, but we'd prefer to avoid using these methods alltogether: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5922#issuecomment-1241954543
Also, this is something that **cannot be implemented outside of bevy**, so having either this PR or #5922 as an escape hatch with lots of discouraging comments would be great.
## Solution
- add `UnsafeWorldCell` with `unsafe fn get_resource(&self)`, `unsafe fn get_resource_mut(&self)`
- add `fn World::as_unsafe_world_cell(&mut self) -> UnsafeWorldCell<'_>` (and `as_unsafe_world_cell_readonly(&self)`)
- add `UnsafeWorldCellEntityRef` with `unsafe fn get`, `unsafe fn get_mut` and the other utilities on `EntityRef` (no methods for spawning, despawning, insertion)
- use the `UnsafeWorldCell` abstraction in `ReflectComponent`, `ReflectResource` and `ReflectAsset`, so these APIs are easier to reason about
- remove `World::get_resource_mut_unchecked`, `EntityRef::get_mut_unchecked` and use `unsafe { world.as_unsafe_world_cell().get_mut() }` and `unsafe { world.as_unsafe_world_cell().get_entity(entity)?.get_mut() }` instead
This PR does **not** make use of `UnsafeWorldCell` for anywhere else in `bevy_ecs` such as `SystemParam` or `Query`. That is a much larger change, and I am convinced that having `UnsafeWorldCell` is already useful for third-party crates.
Implemented API:
```rust
struct World { .. }
impl World {
fn as_unsafe_world_cell(&self) -> UnsafeWorldCell<'_>;
}
struct UnsafeWorldCell<'w>(&'w World);
impl<'w> UnsafeWorldCell {
unsafe fn world(&self) -> &World;
fn get_entity(&self) -> UnsafeWorldCellEntityRef<'w>; // returns 'w which is `'self` of the `World::as_unsafe_world_cell(&'w self)`
unsafe fn get_resource<T>(&self) -> Option<&'w T>;
unsafe fn get_resource_by_id(&self, ComponentId) -> Option<&'w T>;
unsafe fn get_resource_mut<T>(&self) -> Option<Mut<'w, T>>;
unsafe fn get_resource_mut_by_id(&self) -> Option<MutUntyped<'w>>;
unsafe fn get_non_send_resource<T>(&self) -> Option<&'w T>;
unsafe fn get_non_send_resource_mut<T>(&self) -> Option<Mut<'w, T>>>;
// not included: remove, remove_resource, despawn, anything that might change archetypes
}
struct UnsafeWorldCellEntityRef<'w> { .. }
impl UnsafeWorldCellEntityRef<'w> {
unsafe fn get<T>(&self, Entity) -> Option<&'w T>;
unsafe fn get_by_id(&self, Entity, ComponentId) -> Option<Ptr<'w>>;
unsafe fn get_mut<T>(&self, Entity) -> Option<Mut<'w, T>>;
unsafe fn get_mut_by_id(&self, Entity, ComponentId) -> Option<MutUntyped<'w>>;
unsafe fn get_change_ticks<T>(&self, Entity) -> Option<Mut<'w, T>>;
// fn id, archetype, contains, contains_id, containts_type_id
}
```

<summary>UnsafeWorldCell docs</summary>
Variant of the [`World`] where resource and component accesses takes a `&World`, and the responsibility to avoid
aliasing violations are given to the caller instead of being checked at compile-time by rust's unique XOR shared rule.
### Rationale
In rust, having a `&mut World` means that there are absolutely no other references to the safe world alive at the same time,
without exceptions. Not even unsafe code can change this.
But there are situations where careful shared mutable access through a type is possible and safe. For this, rust provides the [`UnsafeCell`](std::cell::UnsafeCell)
escape hatch, which allows you to get a `*mut T` from a `&UnsafeCell<T>` and around which safe abstractions can be built.
Access to resources and components can be done uniquely using [`World::resource_mut`] and [`World::entity_mut`], and shared using [`World::resource`] and [`World::entity`].
These methods use lifetimes to check at compile time that no aliasing rules are being broken.
This alone is not enough to implement bevy systems where multiple systems can access *disjoint* parts of the world concurrently. For this, bevy stores all values of
resources and components (and [`ComponentTicks`](crate::component::ComponentTicks)) in [`UnsafeCell`](std::cell::UnsafeCell)s, and carefully validates disjoint access patterns using
APIs like [`System::component_access`](crate::system::System::component_access).
A system then can be executed using [`System::run_unsafe`](crate::system::System::run_unsafe) with a `&World` and use methods with interior mutability to access resource values.
access resource values.
### Example Usage
[`UnsafeWorldCell`] can be used as a building block for writing APIs that safely allow disjoint access into the world.
In the following example, the world is split into a resource access half and a component access half, where each one can
safely hand out mutable references.
```rust
use bevy_ecs::world::World;
use bevy_ecs::change_detection::Mut;
use bevy_ecs::system::Resource;
use bevy_ecs::world::unsafe_world_cell_world::UnsafeWorldCell;
// INVARIANT: existance of this struct means that users of it are the only ones being able to access resources in the world
struct OnlyResourceAccessWorld<'w>(UnsafeWorldCell<'w>);
// INVARIANT: existance of this struct means that users of it are the only ones being able to access components in the world
struct OnlyComponentAccessWorld<'w>(UnsafeWorldCell<'w>);
impl<'w> OnlyResourceAccessWorld<'w> {
fn get_resource_mut<T: Resource>(&mut self) -> Option<Mut<'w, T>> {
// SAFETY: resource access is allowed through this UnsafeWorldCell
unsafe { self.0.get_resource_mut::<T>() }
}
}
// impl<'w> OnlyComponentAccessWorld<'w> {
// ...
// }
// the two interior mutable worlds borrow from the `&mut World`, so it cannot be accessed while they are live
fn split_world_access(world: &mut World) -> (OnlyResourceAccessWorld<'_>, OnlyComponentAccessWorld<'_>) {
let resource_access = OnlyResourceAccessWorld(unsafe { world.as_unsafe_world_cell() });
let component_access = OnlyComponentAccessWorld(unsafe { world.as_unsafe_world_cell() });
(resource_access, component_access)
}
```

# Objective
`bevy_ecs/system_param.rs` contains many seemingly-arbitrary struct definitions which serve as compile tests.
## Solution
Add a comment to each one, linking the issue or PR that motivated its addition.
# Objective
Fixes#3184. Fixes#6640. Fixes#4798. Using `Query::par_for_each(_mut)` currently requires a `batch_size` parameter, which affects how it chunks up large archetypes and tables into smaller chunks to run in parallel. Tuning this value is difficult, as the performance characteristics entirely depends on the state of the `World` it's being run on. Typically, users will just use a flat constant and just tune it by hand until it performs well in some benchmarks. However, this is both error prone and risks overfitting the tuning on that benchmark.
This PR proposes a naive automatic batch-size computation based on the current state of the `World`.
## Background
`Query::par_for_each(_mut)` schedules a new Task for every archetype or table that it matches. Archetypes/tables larger than the batch size are chunked into smaller tasks. Assuming every entity matched by the query has an identical workload, this makes the worst case scenario involve using a batch size equal to the size of the largest matched archetype or table. Conversely, a batch size of `max {archetype, table} size / thread count * COUNT_PER_THREAD` is likely the sweetspot where the overhead of scheduling tasks is minimized, at least not without grouping small archetypes/tables together.
There is also likely a strict minimum batch size below which the overhead of scheduling these tasks is heavier than running the entire thing single-threaded.
## Solution
- [x] Remove the `batch_size` from `Query(State)::par_for_each` and friends.
- [x] Add a check to compute `batch_size = max {archeytpe/table} size / thread count * COUNT_PER_THREAD`
- [x] ~~Panic if thread count is 0.~~ Defer to `for_each` if the thread count is 1 or less.
- [x] Early return if there is no matched table/archetype.
- [x] Add override option for users have queries that strongly violate the initial assumption that all iterated entities have an equal workload.
---
## Changelog
Changed: `Query::par_for_each(_mut)` has been changed to `Query::par_iter(_mut)` and will now automatically try to produce a batch size for callers based on the current `World` state.
## Migration Guide
The `batch_size` parameter for `Query(State)::par_for_each(_mut)` has been removed. These calls will automatically compute a batch size for you. Remove these parameters from all calls to these functions.
Before:
```rust
fn parallel_system(query: Query<&MyComponent>) {
query.par_for_each(32, |comp| {
...
});
}
```
After:
```rust
fn parallel_system(query: Query<&MyComponent>) {
query.par_iter().for_each(|comp| {
...
});
}
```
