### What it does
Checks for comparisons where one side of the relation is
either the minimum or maximum value for its type and warns if it involves a
case that is always true or always false. Only integer and boolean types are
checked.
### Why is this bad?
An expression like `min <= x` may misleadingly imply
that it is possible for `x` to be less than the minimum. Expressions like
`max < x` are probably mistakes.
### Known problems
For `usize` the size of the current compile target will
be assumed (e.g., 64 bits on 64 bit systems). This means code that uses such
a comparison to detect target pointer width will trigger this lint. One can
use `mem::sizeof` and compare its value or conditional compilation
attributes
like `#[cfg(target_pointer_width = "64")] ..` instead.
### Example
```
let vec: Vec<isize> = Vec::new();
if vec.len() <= 0 {}
if 100 > i32::MAX {}
```

### What it does
Finds items imported through `alloc` when available through `core`.
### Why is this bad?
Crates which have `no_std` compatibility and may optionally require alloc may wish to ensure types are
imported from core to ensure disabling `alloc` does not cause the crate to fail to compile. This lint
is also useful for crates migrating to become `no_std` compatible.
### Example

use alloc::slice::from_ref;

### What it does
Checks for any kind of arithmetic operation of any type.
Operators like `+`, `-`, `*` or `<<` are usually capable of overflowing according to the [Rust
Reference](https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/expressions/operator-expr.html#overflow),
or can panic (`/`, `%`). Known safe built-in types like `Wrapping` or `Saturing` are filtered
away.
### Why is this bad?
Integer overflow will trigger a panic in debug builds or will wrap in
release mode. Division by zero will cause a panic in either mode. In some applications one
wants explicitly checked, wrapping or saturating arithmetic.
#### Example
```
a + 1;
```
Third-party types also tend to overflow.
#### Example
```
use rust_decimal::Decimal;
let _n = Decimal::MAX + Decimal::MAX;
```
### Allowed types
Custom allowed types can be specified through the "arithmetic-allowed" filter.

### What it does
Checks for usage of `as` conversions.
Note that this lint is specialized in linting *every single* use of `as`
regardless of whether good alternatives exist or not.
If you want more precise lints for `as`, please consider using these separate lints:
`unnecessary_cast`, `cast_lossless/cast_possible_truncation/cast_possible_wrap/cast_precision_loss/cast_sign_loss`,
`fn_to_numeric_cast(_with_truncation)`, `char_lit_as_u8`, `ref_to_mut` and `ptr_as_ptr`.
There is a good explanation the reason why this lint should work in this way and how it is useful
[in this issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/5122).
### Why is this bad?
`as` conversions will perform many kinds of
conversions, including silently lossy conversions and dangerous coercions.
There are cases when it makes sense to use `as`, so the lint is
Allow by default.
### Example
```
let a: u32;
...
f(a as u16);
```
Use instead:
```
f(a.try_into()?);
// or
f(a.try_into().expect("Unexpected u16 overflow in f"));

Check for the usage of `as _` conversion using inferred type.
### Why is this bad?
The conversion might include lossy conversion and dangerous cast that might go
undetected due to the type being inferred.
The lint is allowed by default as using `_` is less wordy than always specifying the type.
### Example
```
fn foo(n: usize) {}
let n: u16 = 256;
foo(n as _);

### What it does
Checks for calls to await while holding a non-async-aware MutexGuard.
### Why is this bad?
The Mutex types found in std::sync and parking_lot
are not designed to operate in an async context across await points.
There are two potential solutions. One is to use an async-aware Mutex
type. Many asynchronous foundation crates provide such a Mutex type. The
other solution is to ensure the mutex is unlocked before calling await,
either by introducing a scope or an explicit call to Drop::drop.
### Known problems
Will report false positive for explicitly dropped guards
([#6446](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/6446)). A workaround for this is
to wrap the `.lock()` call in a block instead of explicitly dropping the guard.
### Example
```
async fn foo(x: &Mutex<u32>) {
let mut guard = x.lock().unwrap();
*guard += 1;
baz().await;
}
async fn bar(x: &Mutex<u32>) {

*guard += 1;
drop(guard); // explicit drop
baz().await;

let mut guard = x.lock().unwrap();
*guard += 1;

### What it does
Checks for calls to await while holding a `RefCell` `Ref` or `RefMut`.
### Why is this bad?
`RefCell` refs only check for exclusive mutable access

risks panics from a mutable ref shared while other refs are outstanding.
### Known problems
Will report false positive for explicitly dropped refs
([#6353](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/6353)). A workaround for this is

### What it does
Checks for incompatible bit masks in comparisons.
The formula for detecting if an expression of the type `_ <bit_op> m
<cmp_op> c` (where `<bit_op>` is one of {`&`, `|`} and `<cmp_op>` is one of
{`!=`, `>=`, `>`, `!=`, `>=`, `>`}) can be determined from the following
table:
|Comparison |Bit Op|Example |is always|Formula |
|------------|------|-------------|---------|----------------------|
|`==` or `!=`| `&` |`x & 2 == 3` |`false` |`c & m != c` |
|`<` or `>=`| `&` |`x & 2 < 3` |`true` |`m < c` |
|`>` or `<=`| `&` |`x & 1 > 1` |`false` |`m <= c` |
|`==` or `!=`| `\|` |`x \| 1 == 0`|`false` |`c \| m != c` |
|`<` or `>=`| `\|` |`x \| 1 < 1` |`false` |`m >= c` |
|`<=` or `>` | `\|` |`x \| 1 > 0` |`true` |`m > c` |
### Why is this bad?
If the bits that the comparison cares about are always
set to zero or one by the bit mask, the comparison is constant `true` or
`false` (depending on mask, compared value, and operators).
So the code is actively misleading, and the only reason someone would write
this intentionally is to win an underhanded Rust contest or create a
test-case for this lint.

```
if (x & 1 == 2) { }

### What it does
Checks if `const` items which is interior mutable (e.g.,

### Why is this bad?
Consts are copied everywhere they are referenced, i.e.,
every time you refer to the const a fresh instance of the `Cell` or `Mutex`
or `AtomicXxxx` will be created, which defeats the whole purpose of using
these types in the first place.
The `const` value should be stored inside a `static` item.
### Known problems
When an enum has variants with interior mutability, use of its non
interior mutable variants can generate false positives. See issue
[#3962](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/3962)
Types that have underlying or potential interior mutability trigger the lint whether
the interior mutable field is used or not. See issues

and suggests to use a case-insensitive approach instead.
### Why is this bad?
`ends_with` is case-sensitive and may not detect files with a valid extension.
### Example
```
fn is_rust_file(filename: &str) -> bool {
filename.ends_with(".rs")
}
```
Use instead:
```
fn is_rust_file(filename: &str) -> bool {
let filename = std::path::Path::new(filename);
filename.extension()
.map_or(false, |ext| ext.eq_ignore_ascii_case("rs"))

### What it does
Checks for casts between numerical types that may
be replaced by safe conversion functions.
### Why is this bad?
Rust's `as` keyword will perform many kinds of
conversions, including silently lossy conversions. Conversion functions such
as `i32::from` will only perform lossless conversions. Using the conversion
functions prevents conversions from turning into silent lossy conversions if
the types of the input expressions ever change, and make it easier for
people reading the code to know that the conversion is lossless.
### Example
```
fn as_u64(x: u8) -> u64 {
x as u64
}
```
Using `::from` would look like this:
```
fn as_u64(x: u8) -> u64 {
u64::from(x)
}
```

### What it does
Checks for casts from an unsigned type to a signed type of
the same size. Performing such a cast is a 'no-op' for the compiler,
i.e., nothing is changed at the bit level, and the binary representation of
the value is reinterpreted. This can cause wrapping if the value is too big
for the target signed type. However, the cast works as defined, so this lint
is `Allow` by default.
### Why is this bad?
While such a cast is not bad in itself, the results can
be surprising when this is not the intended behavior, as demonstrated by the
example below.
### Example
```
u32::MAX as i32; // will yield a value of `-1`

### What it does
Checks for casts from any numerical to a float type where
the receiving type cannot store all values from the original type without
rounding errors. This possible rounding is to be expected, so this lint is
`Allow` by default.
Basically, this warns on casting any integer with 32 or more bits to `f32`
or any 64-bit integer to `f64`.
### Why is this bad?
It's not bad at all. But in some applications it can be
helpful to know where precision loss can take place. This lint can help find
those places in the code.

```
let x = u64::MAX;

### Known problems
Using `std::ptr::read_unaligned` and `std::ptr::write_unaligned` or similar

### What it does
Checks for `as` casts between raw pointers to slices with differently sized elements.
### Why is this bad?
The produced raw pointer to a slice does not update its length metadata. The produced
pointer will point to a different number of bytes than the original pointer because the
length metadata of a raw slice pointer is in elements rather than bytes.
Producing a slice reference from the raw pointer will either create a slice with
less data (which can be surprising) or create a slice with more data and cause Undefined Behavior.
### Example
// Missing data
```
let a = [1_i32, 2, 3, 4];
let p = &a as *const [i32] as *const [u8];
unsafe {
println!("{:?}", &*p);
}
```
// Undefined Behavior (note: also potential alignment issues)
```
let a = [1_u8, 2, 3, 4];
let p = &a as *const [u8] as *const [u32];
unsafe {
println!("{:?}", &*p);
}
```
Instead use `ptr::slice_from_raw_parts` to construct a slice from a data pointer and the correct length
```
let a = [1_i32, 2, 3, 4];
let old_ptr = &a as *const [i32];
// The data pointer is cast to a pointer to the target `u8` not `[u8]`
// The length comes from the known length of 4 i32s times the 4 bytes per i32

unsafe {
println!("{:?}", &*new_ptr);

### What it does
Checks for declaration of `const` items which is interior
mutable (e.g., contains a `Cell`, `Mutex`, `AtomicXxxx`, etc.).
### Why is this bad?
Consts are copied everywhere they are referenced, i.e.,
every time you refer to the const a fresh instance of the `Cell` or `Mutex`
or `AtomicXxxx` will be created, which defeats the whole purpose of using
these types in the first place.
The `const` should better be replaced by a `static` item if a global
variable is wanted, or replaced by a `const fn` if a constructor is wanted.
### Known problems
A "non-constant" const item is a legacy way to supply an
initialized value to downstream `static` items (e.g., the
`std::sync::ONCE_INIT` constant). In this case the use of `const` is legit,
and this lint should be suppressed.
Even though the lint avoids triggering on a constant whose type has enums that have variants
with interior mutability, and its value uses non interior mutable variants (see
[#3962](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/3962) and
[#3825](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/3825) for examples);
it complains about associated constants without default values only based on its types;
which might not be preferable.
There're other enums plus associated constants cases that the lint cannot handle.
Types that have underlying or potential interior mutability trigger the lint whether
the interior mutable field is used or not. See issues
[#5812](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/5812) and
### Example
```
use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicUsize, Ordering::SeqCst};

### What it does
Checks for usage of unconstrained numeric literals which may cause default numeric fallback in type

Default numeric fallback means that if numeric types have not yet been bound to concrete

floating type is bound to `f64`.

Displays a warning when a union is declared with the default representation (without a `#[repr(C)]` attribute).

specified layout. These cases may lead to undefined behavior in unsafe blocks.

are stable now, they should be used instead of the old `cfg_attr(rustfmt)` attributes.
### Known problems
This lint doesn't detect crate level inner attributes, because they get
processed before the PreExpansionPass lints get executed. See
[#3123](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/3123#issuecomment-422321765)
### Example
```
#[cfg_attr(rustfmt, rustfmt_skip)]
fn main() { }
```
Use instead:
```
#[rustfmt::skip]
fn main() { }
```

### What it does
Checks for `#[deprecated]` annotations with a `since`
field that is not a valid semantic version.
### Why is this bad?
For checking the version of the deprecation, it must be
a valid semver. Failing that, the contained information is useless.
### Example
```
#[deprecated(since = "forever")]
fn something_else() { /* ... */ }
```

### What it does
Checks for usage of `*&` and `*&mut` in expressions.
### Why is this bad?
Immediately dereferencing a reference is no-op and
makes the code less clear.
### Known problems
Multiple dereference/addrof pairs are not handled so
the suggested fix for `x = **&&y` is `x = *&y`, which is still incorrect.
### Example
```
let a = f(*&mut b);
let c = *&d;
```
Use instead:
```
let a = f(b);
let c = d;

### What it does
Checks for slicing expressions which are equivalent to dereferencing the
value.
### Why is this bad?
Some people may prefer to dereference rather than slice.
### Example
```
let vec = vec![1, 2, 3];
let slice = &vec[..];
```
Use instead:
```
let vec = vec![1, 2, 3];
let slice = &*vec;

### What it does
Detects manual `std::default::Default` implementations that are identical to a derived implementation.
### Why is this bad?
It is less concise.
### Example
```
struct Foo {
bar: bool
}
impl Default for Foo {
fn default() -> Self {
Self {
bar: false
}
}
}
```
Use instead:
```
#[derive(Default)]
struct Foo {
bar: bool
}
```
### Known problems
Derive macros [sometimes use incorrect bounds](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/26925)
in generic types and the user defined `impl` maybe is more generalized or
specialized than what derive will produce. This lint can't detect the manual `impl`
has exactly equal bounds, and therefore this lint is disabled for types with
generic parameters.

### What it does
Checks for deriving `Hash` but implementing `PartialEq`
explicitly or vice versa.
### Why is this bad?
The implementation of these traits must agree (for
example for use with `HashMap`) so its probably a bad idea to use a
default-generated `Hash` implementation with an explicitly defined
`PartialEq`. In particular, the following must hold for any type:
```
k1 == k2 ⇒ hash(k1) == hash(k2)
```

```
#[derive(Hash)]
struct Foo;
impl PartialEq for Foo {
...

### What it does
Checks for deriving `Ord` but implementing `PartialOrd`

### Why is this bad?
The implementation of these traits must agree (for
example for use with `sort`) so its probably a bad idea to use a
default-generated `Ord` implementation with an explicitly defined
`PartialOrd`. In particular, the following must hold for any type
implementing `Ord`:
```
k1.cmp(&k2) == k1.partial_cmp(&k2).unwrap()
```
### Example
```
#[derive(Ord, PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Foo;
impl PartialOrd for Foo {
...

Use instead:
```
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Foo;
impl PartialOrd for Foo {
fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &Foo) -> Option<Ordering> {
Some(self.cmp(other))
}
}
impl Ord for Foo {

or, if you don't need a custom ordering:
```
#[derive(Ord, PartialOrd, PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Foo;

### What it does
Checks for types that derive `PartialEq` and could implement `Eq`.
### Why is this bad?
If a type `T` derives `PartialEq` and all of its members implement `Eq`,
then `T` can always implement `Eq`. Implementing `Eq` allows `T` to be used
in APIs that require `Eq` types. It also allows structs containing `T` to derive
`Eq` themselves.
### Example
```
#[derive(PartialEq)]
struct Foo {
i_am_eq: i32,
i_am_eq_too: Vec<String>,
}
```
Use instead:
```
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]

i_am_eq: i32,

### What it does
Denies the configured methods and functions in clippy.toml
Note: Even though this lint is warn-by-default, it will only trigger if
methods are defined in the clippy.toml file.
### Why is this bad?
Some methods are undesirable in certain contexts, and it's beneficial to
lint for them as needed.
### Example
An example clippy.toml configuration:
```
disallowed-methods = [
# Can use a string as the path of the disallowed method.
"std::boxed::Box::new",
# Can also use an inline table with a `path` key.
{ path = "std::time::Instant::now" },
# When using an inline table, can add a `reason` for why the method
# is disallowed.
{ path = "std::vec::Vec::leak", reason = "no leaking memory" },
]
```
```
// Example code where clippy issues a warning
let xs = vec![1, 2, 3, 4];
xs.leak(); // Vec::leak is disallowed in the config.
// The diagnostic contains the message "no leaking memory".
let _now = Instant::now(); // Instant::now is disallowed in the config.
let _box = Box::new(3); // Box::new is disallowed in the config.
```
Use instead:
```
// Example code which does not raise clippy warning
let mut xs = Vec::new(); // Vec::new is _not_ disallowed in the config.
xs.push(123); // Vec::push is _not_ disallowed in the config.

### What it does
Checks for usage of unicode scripts other than those explicitly allowed
by the lint config.
This lint doesn't take into account non-text scripts such as `Unknown` and `Linear_A`.
It also ignores the `Common` script type.
While configuring, be sure to use official script name [aliases] from
[the list of supported scripts][supported_scripts].
See also: [`non_ascii_idents`].
[aliases]: http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr24/tr24-31.html#Script_Value_Aliases
[supported_scripts]: https://www.unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html
### Why is this bad?
It may be not desired to have many different scripts for
identifiers in the codebase.
Note that if you only want to allow plain English, you might want to use
built-in [`non_ascii_idents`] lint instead.
[`non_ascii_idents`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/lints/listing/allowed-by-default.html#non-ascii-idents
### Example
```
// Assuming that `clippy.toml` contains the following line:
// allowed-locales = ["Latin", "Cyrillic"]
let counter = 10; // OK, latin is allowed.
let счётчик = 10; // OK, cyrillic is allowed.
let zähler = 10; // OK, it's still latin.
let カウンタ = 10; // Will spawn the lint.

### What it does
Checks for diverging calls that are not match arms or
statements.
### Why is this bad?
It is often confusing to read. In addition, the
sub-expression evaluation order for Rust is not well documented.
### Known problems
Someone might want to use `some_bool || panic!()` as a
shorthand.
### Example
```
let a = b() || panic!() || c();
// `c()` is dead, `panic!()` is only called if `b()` returns `false`
let x = (a, b, c, panic!());

### What it does
Checks for the presence of `_`, `::` or camel-case words
outside ticks in documentation.
### Why is this bad?
*Rustdoc* supports markdown formatting, `_`, `::` and
camel-case probably indicates some code which should be included between
ticks. `_` can also be used for emphasis in markdown, this lint tries to
consider that.
### Known problems
Lots of bad docs wont be fixed, what the lint checks
for is limited, and there are still false positives. HTML elements and their
content are not linted.
In addition, when writing documentation comments, including `[]` brackets
inside a link text would trip the parser. Therefore, documenting link with
`[`SmallVec<[T; INLINE_CAPACITY]>`]` and then [`SmallVec<[T; INLINE_CAPACITY]>`]: SmallVec
would fail.
### Examples
```
/// Do something with the foo_bar parameter. See also
/// that::other::module::foo.
// ^ `foo_bar` and `that::other::module::foo` should be ticked.
fn doit(foo_bar: usize) {}
```
```
// Link text with `[]` brackets should be written as following:
/// Consume the array and return the inner
/// [`SmallVec<[T; INLINE_CAPACITY]>`][SmallVec].
/// [SmallVec]: SmallVec

Calling `std::mem::drop` [does nothing for types that
implement Copy](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/mem/fn.drop.html), since the
value will be copied and moved into the function on invocation.
