2025-05-16Auto merge of #140557 - compiler-errors:remove-wf-hack, r=lcnrbors-56/+9
Remove manual WF hack We do not need this hack anymore since we fixed the candidate selection problems with `Sized` bounds. We prefer built-in sized bounds now since #138176, which fixes the only regression this hack was intended to fix. While this theoretically is broken for some code, for example, when there a param-env bound that shadows an impl or built-in trait, we don't see it in practice and IMO it's not worth the burden of having to maintain this wart in `compare_method_predicate_entailment`. The code that regresses is, for example: ```rust trait Bar<'a> {} trait Foo<'a, T> { fn method(&self) where Self: Bar<'a>; } struct W<'a, T>(&'a T) where Self: Bar<'a>; impl<'a, 'b, T> Bar<'a> for W<'b, T> {} impl<'a, 'b, T> Foo<'a, T> for W<'b, T> { fn method(&self) {} } ``` Specifically, I don't believe this is really going to be encountered in practice. For this to fail, there must be a where clause in the *trait method* that would shadow an impl or built-in (non-`Sized`) candidate in the trait, and this shadowing would need to be encountered when solving a nested WF goal from the impl self type. See #108544 for the original regression. Crater run is clean! r? lcnr

2025-04-28Rollup merge of #140249 - BoxyUwU:remove_weak_alias_terminology, r=oli-obkGuillaume Gomez-2/+2
Remove `weak` alias terminology I find the "weak" alias terminology to be quite confusing. It implies the existence of "strong" aliases (which do not exist) and I'm not really sure what about weak aliases is "weak". I much prefer "free alias" as the term. I think it's much more obvious what it means as "free function" is a well defined term that already exists in rust. It's also a little confusing given "weak alias" is already a term in linker/codegen spaces which are part of the compiler too. Though I'm not particularly worried about that as it's usually very obvious if you're talking about the type system or not lol. I'm also currently trying to write documentation about aliases and it's somewhat awkward/confusing to be talking about *weak* aliases, when I'm not really sure what the basis for that as the term actually *is*. I would also be happy to just find out there's a nice meaning behind calling them "weak" aliases :-) r? `@oli-obk` maybe we want a types MCP to decide on a specific naming here? or maybe we think its just too late to go back on this naming decision ^^'

2025-04-14Move `has_self` field to `hir::AssocKind::Fn`.Nicholas Nethercote-16/+16
`hir::AssocItem` currently has a boolean `fn_has_self_parameter` field, which is misplaced, because it's only relevant for associated fns, not for associated consts or types. This commit moves it (and renames it) to the `AssocKind::Fn` variant, where it belongs. This requires introducing a new C-style enum, `AssocTag`, which is like `AssocKind` but without the fields. This is because `AssocKind` values are passed to various functions like `find_by_ident_and_kind` to indicate what kind of associated item should be searched for, and having to specify `has_self` isn't relevant there. New methods: - Predicates `AssocItem::is_fn` and `AssocItem::is_method`. - `AssocItem::as_tag` which converts `AssocItem::kind` to `AssocTag`. Removed `find_by_name_and_kinds`, which is unused. `AssocItem::descr` can now distinguish between methods and associated functions, which slightly improves some error messages.

2025-04-07Rollup merge of #139112 - m-ou-se:super-let, r=lcnrStuart Cook-16/+85
Implement `super let` Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/139076 This implements `super let` as proposed in #139080, based on the following two equivalence rules. 1. For all expressions `$expr` in any context, these are equivalent: - `& $expr` - `{ super let a = & $expr; a }` 2. And, additionally, these are equivalent in any context when `$expr` is a temporary (aka rvalue): - `& $expr` - `{ super let a = $expr; & a }` So far, this experiment has a few interesting results: ## Interesting result 1 In this snippet: ```rust super let a = f(&temp()); ``` I originally expected temporary `temp()` would be dropped at the end of the statement (`;`), just like in a regular `let`, because `temp()` is not subject to temporary lifetime extension. However, it turns out that that would break the fundamental equivalence rules. For example, in ```rust g(&f(&temp())); ``` the temporary `temp()` will be dropped at the `;`. The first equivalence rule tells us this must be equivalent: ```rust g({ super let a = &f(&temp()); a }); ``` But that means that `temp()` must live until the last `;` (after `g()`), not just the first `;` (after `f()`). While this was somewhat surprising to me at first, it does match the exact behavior we need for `pin!()`: The following _should work_. (See also https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/138718) ```rust g(pin!(f(&mut temp()))); ``` Here, `temp()` lives until the end of the statement. This makes sense from the perspective of the user, as no other `;` or `{}` are visible. Whether `pin!()` uses a `{}` block internally or not should be irrelevant. This means that _nothing_ in a `super let` statement will be dropped at the end of that super let statement. It does not even need its own scope. This raises questions that are useful for later on: - Will this make temporaries live _too long_ in cases where `super let` is used not in a hidden block in a macro, but as a visible statement in code like the following? ```rust let writer = { super let file = File::create(&format!("/home/{user}/test")); Writer::new(&file) }; ``` - Is a `let` statement in a block still the right syntax for this? Considering it has _no_ scope of its own, maybe neither a block nor a statement should be involved This leads me to think that instead of `{ super let $pat = $init; $expr }`, we might want to consider something like `let $pat = $init in $expr` or `$expr where $pat = $init`. Although there are also issues with these, as it isn't obvious anymore if `$init` should be subject to temporary lifetime extension. (Do we want both `let _ = _ in ..` and `super let _ = _ in ..`?) ## Interesting result 2 What about `super let x;` without initializer? ```rust let a = { super let x; x = temp(); &x }; ``` This works fine with the implementation in this PR: `x` is extended to live as long as `a`. While it matches my expectations, a somewhat interesting thing to realize is that these are _not_ equivalent: - `super let x = $expr;` - `super let x; x = $expr;` In the first case, all temporaries in $expr will live at least as long as (the result of) the surrounding block. In the second case, temporaries will be dropped at the end of the assignment statement. (Because the assignment statement itself "is not `super`".) This difference in behavior might be confusing, but it _might_ be useful. One might want to extend the lifetime of a variable without extending all the temporaries in the initializer expression. On the other hand, that can also be expressed as: - `let x = $expr; super let x = x;` (w/o temporary lifetime extension), or - `super let x = { $expr };` (w/ temporary lifetime extension) So, this raises these questions: - Do we want to accept `super let x;` without initializer at all? - Does it make sense for statements other than let statements to be "super"? An expression statement also drops temporaries at its `;`, so now that we discovered that `super let` basically disables that `;` (see interesting result 1), is there a use to having other statements without their own scope? (I don't think that's ever useful?) ## Interesting result 3 This works now: ```rust super let Some(x) = a.get(i) else { return }; ``` I didn't put in any special cases for `super let else`. This is just the behavior that 'naturally' falls out when implementing `super let` without thinking of the `let else` case. - Should `super let else` work? ## Interesting result 4 This 'works': ```rust fn main() { super let a = 123; } ``` I didn't put in any special cases for `super let` at function scope. I had expected the code to cause an ICE or other weird failure when used at function body scope, because there's no way to let the variable live as long as the result of the function. This raises the question: - Does this mean that this behavior is the natural/expected behavior when `super let` is used at function scope? Or is this just a quirk and should we explicitly disallow `super let` in a function body? (Probably the latter.) --- The questions above do not need an answer to land this PR. These questions should be considered when redesigning/rfc'ing/stabilizing the feature.

Initial support for auto traits with default bounds This PR is part of ["MCP: Low level components for async drop"](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/727) Tracking issue: #138781 Summary: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120706#issuecomment-1934006762 ### Intro Sometimes we want to use type system to express specific behavior and provide safety guarantees. This behavior can be specified by various "marker" traits. For example, we use `Send` and `Sync` to keep track of which types are thread safe. As the language develops, there are more problems that could be solved by adding new marker traits: - to forbid types with an async destructor to be dropped in a synchronous context a trait like `SyncDrop` could be used [Async destructors, async genericity and completion futures](https://sabrinajewson.org/blog/async-drop). - to support [scoped tasks](https://without.boats/blog/the-scoped-task-trilemma/) or in a more general sense to provide a [destruction guarantee](https://zetanumbers.github.io/book/myosotis.html) there is a desire among some users to see a `Leak` (or `Forget`) trait. - Withoutboats in his [post](https://without.boats/blog/changing-the-rules-of-rust/) reflected on the use of `Move` trait instead of a `Pin`. All the traits proposed above are supposed to be auto traits implemented for most types, and usually implemented automatically by compiler. For backward compatibility these traits have to be added implicitly to all bound lists in old code (see below). Adding new default bounds involves many difficulties: many standard library interfaces may need to opt out of those default bounds, and therefore be infected with confusing `?Trait` syntax, migration to a new edition may contain backward compatibility holes, supporting new traits in the compiler can be quite difficult and so forth. Anyway, it's hard to evaluate the complexity until we try the system on a practice. In this PR we introduce new optional lang items for traits that are added to all bound lists by default, similarly to existing `Sized`. The examples of such traits could be `Leak`, `Move`, `SyncDrop` or something else, it doesn't matter much right now (further I will call them `DefaultAutoTrait`'s). We want to land this change into rustc under an option, so it becomes available in bootstrap compiler. Then we'll be able to do standard library experiments with the aforementioned traits without adding hundreds of `#[cfg(not(bootstrap))]`s. Based on the experiments, we can come up with some scheme for the next edition, in which such bounds are added in a more targeted way, and not just everywhere. Most of the implementation is basically a refactoring that replaces hardcoded uses of `Sized` with iterating over a list of traits including both `Sized` and the new traits when `-Zexperimental-default-bounds` is enabled (or just `Sized` as before, if the option is not enabled). ### Default bounds for old editions All existing types, including generic parameters, are considered `Leak`/`Move`/`SyncDrop` and can be forgotten, moved or destroyed in generic contexts without specifying any bounds. New types that cannot be, for example, forgotten and do not implement `Leak` can be added at some point, and they should not be usable in such generic contexts in existing code. To both maintain this property and keep backward compatibility with existing code, the new traits should be added as default bounds _everywhere_ in previous editions. Besides the implicit `Sized` bound contexts that includes supertrait lists and trait lists in trait objects (`dyn Trait1 + ... + TraitN`). Compiler should also generate implicit `DefaultAutoTrait` implementations for foreign types (`extern { type Foo; }`) because they are also currently usable in generic contexts without any bounds. #### Supertraits Adding the new traits as supertraits to all existing traits is potentially necessary, because, for example, using a `Self` param in a trait's associated item may be a breaking change otherwise: ```rust trait Foo: Sized { fn new() -> Option<Self>; // ERROR: `Option` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `Self` is not `DefaultAutoTrait` } // desugared `Option` enum Option<T: DefaultAutoTrait + Sized> { Some(T), None, } ``` However, default supertraits can significantly affect compiler performance. For example, if we know that `T: Trait`, the compiler would deduce that `T: DefaultAutoTrait`. It also implies proving `F: DefaultAutoTrait` for each field `F` of type `T` until an explicit impl is be provided. If the standard library is not modified, then even traits like `Copy` or `Send` would get these supertraits. In this PR for optimization purposes instead of adding default supertraits, bounds are added to the associated items: ```rust // Default bounds are generated in the following way: trait Trait { fn foo(&self) where Self: DefaultAutoTrait {} } // instead of this: trait Trait: DefaultAutoTrait { fn foo(&self) {} } ``` It is not always possible to do this optimization because of backward compatibility: ```rust pub trait Trait<Rhs = Self> {} pub trait Trait1 : Trait {} // ERROR: `Rhs` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `Self` is not `DefaultAutoTrait` ``` or ```rust trait Trait { type Type where Self: Sized; } trait Trait2<T> : Trait<Type = T> {} // ERROR: `???` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `Self` is not `DefaultAutoTrait` ``` Therefore, `DefaultAutoTrait`'s are still being added to supertraits if the `Self` params or type bindings were found in the trait header. #### Trait objects Trait objects requires explicit `+ Trait` bound to implement corresponding trait which is not backward compatible: ```rust fn use_trait_object(x: Box<dyn Trait>) { foo(x) // ERROR: `foo` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `dyn Trait` is not `DefaultAutoTrait` } // implicit T: DefaultAutoTrait here fn foo<T>(_: T) {} ``` So, for a trait object `dyn Trait` we should add an implicit bound `dyn Trait + DefaultAutoTrait` to make it usable, and allow relaxing it with a question mark syntax `dyn Trait + ?DefaultAutoTrait` when it's not necessary. #### Foreign types If compiler doesn't generate auto trait implementations for a foreign type, then it's a breaking change if the default bounds are added everywhere else: ```rust // implicit T: DefaultAutoTrait here fn foo<T: ?Sized>(_: &T) {} extern "C" { type ExternTy; } fn forward_extern_ty(x: &ExternTy) { foo(x); // ERROR: `foo` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `ExternTy` is not `DefaultAutoTrait` } ``` We'll have to enable implicit `DefaultAutoTrait` implementations for foreign types at least for previous editions: ```rust // implicit T: DefaultAutoTrait here fn foo<T: ?Sized>(_: &T) {} extern "C" { type ExternTy; } impl DefaultAutoTrait for ExternTy {} // implicit impl fn forward_extern_ty(x: &ExternTy) { foo(x); // OK } ``` ### Unresolved questions New default bounds affect all existing Rust code complicating an already complex type system. - Proving an auto trait predicate requires recursively traversing the type and proving the predicate for it's fields. This leads to a significant performance regression. Measurements for the stage 2 compiler build show up to 3x regression. - We hope that fast path optimizations for well known traits could mitigate such regressions at least partially. - New default bounds trigger some compiler bugs in both old and new trait solver. - With new default bounds we encounter some trait solver cycle errors that break existing code. - We hope that these cases are bugs that can be addressed in the new trait solver. Also migration to a new edition could be quite ugly and enormous, but that's actually what we want to solve. For other issues there's a chance that they could be solved by a new solver.
