# Stabilization report
## Summary
This stabilizes using macro expansion in key-value attributes, like so:
```rust
#[doc = include_str!("my_doc.md")]
struct S;
#[path = concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/generated.rs")]
mod m;
```
See the changes to the reference for details on what macros are allowed;
see Petrochenkov's excellent blog post [on internals](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/macro-expansion-points-in-attributes/11455)
for alternatives that were considered and rejected ("why accept no more
and no less?")
This has been available on nightly since 1.50 with no major issues.
## Notes
### Accepted syntax
The parser accepts arbitrary Rust expressions in this position, but any expression other than a macro invocation will ultimately lead to an error because it is not expected by the built-in expression forms (e.g., `#[doc]`). Note that decorators and the like may be able to observe other expression forms.
### Expansion ordering
Expansion of macro expressions in "inert" attributes occurs after decorators have executed, analogously to macro expressions appearing in the function body or other parts of decorator input.
There is currently no way for decorators to accept macros in key-value position if macro expansion must be performed before the decorator executes (if the macro can simply be copied into the output for later expansion, that can work).
## Test cases
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/test/ui/attributes/key-value-expansion-on-mac.rs
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/test/rustdoc/external-doc.rs
The feature has also been dogfooded extensively in the compiler and
standard library:
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83329
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83230
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/82641
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80534
## Implementation history
- Initial proposal: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/55414#issuecomment-554005412
- Experiment to see how much code it would break: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/67121
- Preliminary work to restrict expansion that would conflict with this
feature: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/77271
- Initial implementation: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/78837
- Fix for an ICE: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80563
## Unresolved Questions
~~https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83366#issuecomment-805180738 listed some concerns, but they have been resolved as of this final report.~~
## Additional Information
There are two workarounds that have a similar effect for `#[doc]`
attributes on nightly. One is to emulate this behavior by using a limited version of this feature that was stabilized for historical reasons:
```rust
macro_rules! forward_inner_docs {
($e:expr => $i:item) => {
#[doc = $e]
$i
};
}
forward_inner_docs!(include_str!("lib.rs") => struct S {});
```
This also works for other attributes (like `#[path = concat!(...)]`).
The other is to use `doc(include)`:
```rust
#![feature(external_doc)]
#[doc(include = "lib.rs")]
struct S {}
```
The first works, but is non-trivial for people to discover, and
difficult to read and maintain. The second is a strange special-case for
a particular use of the macro. This generalizes it to work for any use
case, not just including files.
I plan to remove `doc(include)` when this is stabilized. The
`forward_inner_docs` workaround will still compile without warnings, but
I expect it to be used less once it's no longer necessary.

Stabilize `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` lint
This makes it possible to override the level of the `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn`, as proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/71668#issuecomment-729770896.
Tracking issue: #71668

# Stabilization report
This is a stabilization report for `#![feature(unsafe_block_in_unsafe_fn)]`.
## Summary
Currently, the body of unsafe functions is an unsafe block, i.e. you can perform unsafe operations inside.
The `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` lint, stabilized here, can be used to change this behavior, so performing unsafe operations in unsafe functions requires an unsafe block.
For now, the lint is allow-by-default, which means that this PR does not change anything without overriding the lint level.
For more information, see [RFC 2585](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2585-unsafe-block-in-unsafe-fn.md)
### Example
```rust
// An `unsafe fn` for demonstration purposes.
// Calling this is an unsafe operation.
unsafe fn unsf() {}
// #[allow(unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn)] by default,
// the behavior of `unsafe fn` is unchanged
unsafe fn allowed() {
// Here, no `unsafe` block is needed to
// perform unsafe operations...
unsf();
// ...and any `unsafe` block is considered
// unused and is warned on by the compiler.
unsafe {
unsf();
}
}
#[warn(unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn)]
unsafe fn warned() {
// Removing this `unsafe` block will
// cause the compiler to emit a warning.
// (Also, no "unused unsafe" warning will be emitted here.)
unsafe {
unsf();
}
}
#[deny(unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn)]
unsafe fn denied() {
// Removing this `unsafe` block will
// cause a compilation error.
// (Also, no "unused unsafe" warning will be emitted here.)
unsafe {
unsf();
}
}

Stabilize move_ref_pattern
# Implementation
- Initially the rule was added in the run-up to 1.0. The AST-based borrow checker was having difficulty correctly enforcing match expressions that combined ref and move bindings, and so it was decided to simplify forbid the combination out right.
- The move to MIR-based borrow checking made it possible to enforce the rules in a finer-grained level, but we kept the rule in place in an effort to be conservative in our changes.
- In #68376, @Centril lifted the restriction but required a feature-gate.
- This PR removes the feature-gate.
Tracking issue: #68354.
# Description
This PR is to stabilize the feature `move_ref_pattern`, which allows patterns
containing both `by-ref` and `by-move` bindings at the same time.
For example: `Foo(ref x, y)`, where `x` is `by-ref`,
and `y` is `by-move`.
The rules of moving a variable also apply here when moving *part* of a variable,
such as it can't be referenced or moved before.
If this pattern is used, it would result in *partial move*, which means that
part of the variable is moved. The variable that was partially moved from
cannot be used as a whole in this case, only the parts that are still
not moved can be used.

## Tests
There are many tests, but I think one of the comperhensive ones:
- [borrowck-move-ref-pattern-pass.rs](https://github.com/Centril/rust/blob/85fbf49ce0e2274d0acf798f6e703747674feec3/src/test/ui/pattern/move-ref-patterns/borrowck-move-ref-pattern-pass.rs)
- [borrowck-move-ref-pattern.rs](https://github.com/Centril/rust/blob/85fbf49ce0e2274d0acf798f6e703747674feec3/src/test/ui/pattern/move-ref-patterns/borrowck-move-ref-pattern.rs)
# Examples
```rust
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Finished {}
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
struct Processing {
status: ProcessStatus,
}
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
enum ProcessStatus {
One,
Two,
Three,
}
#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
enum Status {
Finished(Finished),
Processing(Processing),
}
fn check_result(_url: &str) -> Status {
// fetch status from some server
Status::Processing(Processing {
status: ProcessStatus::One,
})
}
fn wait_for_result(url: &str) -> Finished {
let mut previous_status = None;
loop {
match check_result(url) {
Status::Finished(f) => return f,
Status::Processing(p) => {
match (&mut previous_status, p.status) {
(None, status) => previous_status = Some(status), // first status
(Some(previous), status) if *previous == status => {} // no change, ignore
(Some(previous), status) => { // Now it can be used
// new status
*previous = status;
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
Before, we would have used:
```rust
match (&previous_status, p.status) {
(Some(previous), status) if *previous == status => {} // no change, ignore
(_, status) => {
// new status
previous_status = Some(status);
}
}
```
Demonstrating *partial move*
```rust
fn main() {
#[derive(Debug)]
struct Person {
name: String,
age: u8,
}
let person = Person {
name: String::from("Alice"),
age: 20,
};
// `name` is moved out of person, but `age` is referenced
let Person { name, ref age } = person;
println!("The person's age is {}", age);
println!("The person's name is {}", name);
// Error! borrow of partially moved value: `person` partial move occurs
//println!("The person struct is {:?}", person);
// `person` cannot be used but `person.age` can be used as it is not moved
println!("The person's age from person struct is {}", person.age);
}
```
