This renames the variants in HIR UnOp from
enum UnOp {
UnDeref,
UnNot,
UnNeg,
}
to
enum UnOp {
Deref,
Not,
Neg,
}
Motivations:
- This is more consistent with the rest of the code base where most enum
variants don't have a prefix.
- These variants are never used without the `UnOp` prefix so the extra
`Un` prefix doesn't help with readability. E.g. we don't have any
`UnDeref`s in the code, we only have `UnOp::UnDeref`.
- MIR `UnOp` type variants don't have a prefix so this is more
consistent with MIR types.
- "un" prefix reads like "inverse" or "reverse", so as a beginner in
rustc code base when I see "UnDeref" what comes to my mind is
something like "&*" instead of just "*".
Implement Rust 2021 panic
This implements the Rust 2021 versions of `panic!()`. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80162 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3007.
It does so by replacing `{std, core}::panic!()` by a bulitin macro that expands to either `$crate::panic::panic_2015!(..)` or `$crate::panic::panic_2021!(..)` depending on the edition of the caller.
This does not yet make std's panic an alias for core's panic on Rust 2021 as the RFC proposes. That will be a separate change: c5273bdfb2 That change is blocked on figuring out what to do with https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80846 first.

Update error to reflect that integer literals can have float suffixes
For example, `1` is parsed as an integer literal, but it can be turned
into a float with the suffix `f32`. Now the error calls them "numeric
literals" and notes that you can add a float suffix since they can be
either integers or floats.
Part of #68490.
Care has been taken to leave the old consts where appropriate, for testing backcompat regressions, module shadowing, etc. The intrinsics docs were accidentally referring to some methods on f64 as std::f64, which I changed due to being contrary with how we normally disambiguate the shadow module from the primitive. In one other place I changed std::u8 to std::ops since it was just testing path handling in macros.
For places which have legitimate uses of the old consts, deprecated attributes have been optimistically inserted. Although currently unnecessary, they exist to emphasize to any future deprecation effort the necessity of these specific symbols and prevent them from being accidentally removed.

Stabilize some Result methods as const
Stabilize the following methods of Result as const:
- `is_ok`
- `is_err`
- `as_ref`
A test is also included, analogous to the test for `const_option`.
These methods are currently const under the unstable feature `const_result` (tracking issue: #67520).
I believe these methods to be eligible for stabilization because of the stabilization of #49146 (Allow if and match in constants) and the trivial implementations, see also: [PR#75463](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/75463) and [PR#76135](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/76135).
Note: these methods are the only methods currently under the `const_result` feature, thus this PR results in the removal of the feature.
Related: #76225
Update the test `redundant_pattern_matching`: check if `is_ok` and `is_err` are suggested within const contexts.
Also removes the `redundant_pattern_matching_const_result` test, as it is no longer needed.
We no longer lint assignments to const item fields in the
`temporary_assignment` lint, since this is now covered by the
`CONST_ITEM_MUTATION` lint.
Additionally, we `#![allow(const_item_mutation)]` in the
`borrow_interior_mutable_const.rs` test. Clippy UI tests are run with
`-D warnings`, which seems to cause builtin lints to prevent Clippy
lints from running.
Check whether locals are too large instead of whether accesses into them are too large
Essentially this stops const prop from attempting to optimize
```rust
let mut x = [0_u8; 5000];
x[42] = 3;
```
I don't expect this to be a perf improvement without #73656 (which is also where the lack of this PR will be a perf regression).

The reason we do not trigger these lints anymore is that clippy sets the mir-opt-level to 0, and the recent changes subtly changed how the const propagator works.

None of the tools seem to need syn 0.15.35, so we can just build syn
1.0.
This was causing an issue with clippy's `compile-test` program: since
multiple versions of `syn` would exist in the build directory, we would
non-deterministically pick one based on filesystem iteration order. If
the pre-1.0 version of `syn` was picked, a strange build error would
occur (see
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/73594#issuecomment-647671463)
To prevent this kind of issue from happening again, we now panic if we
find multiple versions of a crate in the build directly, instead of
silently picking the first version we find.

Downgrade match_bool to pedantic
I don't quite buy the justification in https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/. The justification is:
> It makes the code less readable.
In the Rust codebases I've worked in, I have found people were comfortable using `match bool` (selectively) to make code more readable. For example, initializing struct fields is a place where the indentation of `match` can work better than the indentation of `if`:
```rust
let _ = Struct {
v: {
...
},
w: match doing_w {
true => ...,
false => ...,
},
x: Nested {
c: ...,
b: ...,
a: ...,
},
y: if doing_y {
...
} else { // :(
...
},
z: ...,
};
```
Or sometimes people prefer something a bit less pithy than `if` when the meaning of the bool doesn't read off clearly from the condition:
```rust
if set.insert(...) {
... // ???
} else {
...
}
match set.insert(...) {
// set.insert returns false if already present
false => ...,
true => ...,
}
```
Or `match` can be a better fit when the bool is playing the role more of a value than a branch condition:
```rust
impl ErrorCodes {
pub fn from(b: bool) -> Self {
match b {
true => ErrorCodes::Yes,
false => ErrorCodes::No,
}
}
}
```
And then there's plain old it's-1-line-shorter, which means we get 25% more content on a screen when stacking a sequence of conditions:
```rust
let old_noun = match old_binding.is_import() {
true => "import",
false => "definition",
};
let new_participle = match new_binding.is_import() {
true => "imported",
false => "defined",
};
```
Bottom line is I think this lint fits the bill better as a pedantic lint; I don't think linting on this by default is justified.

Downgrade implicit_hasher to pedantic
From the [documentation](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#implicit_hasher), this lint is intended to suggest:
```diff
- pub fn foo(map: &mut HashMap<i32, i32>) { }
+ pub fn foo<S: BuildHasher>(map: &mut HashMap<i32, i32, S>) { }
```
I think this is pedantic. I get that this lint can benefit core libraries like serde, but that's exactly the use case for pedantic lints; a library like serde will [enable clippy_pedantic](fd6741f4b0/src/lib.rs (L304)) and take the time to go through everything possible. Similar for libraries doing a libz blitz style checkup before committing to a 1.0 release; it would make sense to run through all the available pedantic lints then.
But otherwise, for most codebases and certainly for industrial codebases, the above suggested change just makes the codebase more obtuse for questionable benefit.

Downgrade trivially_copy_pass_by_ref to pedantic
The rationale for this lint is documented as:
> In many calling conventions instances of structs will be passed through registers if they fit into two or less general purpose registers.
I think the purported performance benefits of clippy's recommendation are overstated. This isn't worth asking people to sprinkle code with more `*``*``&``*``&` to chase the alleged performance.
This should be a pedantic lint that is disabled by default and opted in if some specific performance sensitive codebase determines that it is worthwhile.
As a reminder, a typical place that a reference to a primitive would come up is if the function is used as a filter. Triggering a performance-oriented lint on this type of code is the definition of pedantic.
```rust
fn filter(_n: &i32) -> bool {
true
}
fn main() {
let v = vec![1, 2, 3];
v.iter().copied().filter(filter).for_each(drop);
}
```
```console
warning: this argument (4 byte) is passed by reference, but would be more efficient if passed by value (limit: 8 byte)
--> src/main.rs:1:15
|
1 | fn filter(_n: &i32) -> bool {
| ^^^^ help: consider passing by value instead: `i32`

Downgrade let_unit_value to pedantic
Given that the false positive in #1502 is marked E-hard and I don't have much hope of it getting fixed, I think it would be wise to disable this lint by default. I have had to suppress this lint in every substantial codebase (\>100k line) I have worked in. Any time this lint is being triggered, it's always the false positive case.
The motivation for this lint is documented as:
> A unit value cannot usefully be used anywhere. So binding one is kind of pointless.
with this example:
> ```rust
> let x = {
> 1;
> };
> ```
Sure, but the author would find this out via an unused_variable warning or from `x` not being the type that they need further down. If there ends up being a type error on `x`, clippy's advice isn't going to help get the code compiling because it can only run if the code already compiles.
changelog: Remove let_unit_value from default set of enabled lints
Fix update_lints
This fixes a bug in update_lints, where `internal` lints were not registered properly. This also cleans up some code. For example: The code generation functions no longer filter the lints the are given. This is now the task of the caller. This way, it is more obvious in the `replace_in_file` calls which lints will be included in which part of a file.
This also turns the lint modules private. There is no need for them to be public, since shared code should be in the utils module anyway.
And last but not least, this fixes the `register_lints` code generation, so also internal lints get registered.

Downgrade option_option to pedantic
Based on a search of my work codebase (\>500k lines) for `Option<Option<`, it looks like a bunch of reasonable uses to me. The documented motivation for this lint is:
> an optional optional value is logically the same thing as an optional value but has an unneeded extra level of wrapping
which seems a bit bogus in practice. For example a typical usage would look like:
```rust
let mut host: Option<String> = None;
let mut port: Option<i32> = None;
let mut payload: Option<Option<String>> = None;
for each field {
match field.name {
"host" => host = Some(...),
"port" => port = Some(...),
"payload" => payload = Some(...), // can be null or string
_ => return error,
}
}
let host = host.ok_or(...)?;
let port = port.ok_or(...)?;
let payload = payload.ok_or(...)?;
do_thing(host, port, payload)
```
This lint seems to fit right in with the pedantic group; I don't think linting on occurrences of `Option<Option<T>>` by default is justified.

_Note_: the `is_unused` function is greatly inspired from `pat_is_wild` function in [loops lints](43ac9416d9/clippy_lints/src/loops.rs (L1689)).
I've been considering doing some refactoring, maybe in utils. Maybe this PR or a new one. What do you think ?
