Version 1.66.1 (2023-01-10)

• Added validation of SSH host keys for git URLs in Cargo (CVE-2022-46176)

Version 1.66.0 (2022-12-15)

Language

• Permit specifying explicit discriminants on all repr(Int) enums

  #![allow(unused)]
  fn main() {
  #[repr(u8)]
  enum Foo {
      A(u8) = 0,
      B(i8) = 1,
      C(bool) = 42,
  }
  }

• Allow transmutes between the same type differing only in lifetimes
• Change constant evaluation errors from a deny-by-default lint to a hard error
• Trigger must_use on impl Trait for supertraits This makes impl ExactSizeIterator respect the existing #[must_use] annotation on Iterator.
• Allow ..=X in patterns
• Uplift clippy::for_loops_over_fallibles lint into rustc
• Stabilize sym operands in inline assembly
• Update to Unicode 15
• Opaque types no longer imply lifetime bounds This is a soundness fix which may break code that was erroneously relying on this behavior.

Compiler

• Add armv5te-none-eabi and thumbv5te-none-eabi tier 3 targets
  • Refer to Rust's [platform support page][platform-support-doc] for more information on Rust's tiered platform support.
• Add support for linking against macOS universal libraries

Libraries

• Fix #[derive(Default)] on a generic #[default] enum adding unnecessary Default bounds
• Update to Unicode 15

Stabilized APIs

• proc_macro::Span::source_text
• uX::{checked_add_signed, overflowing_add_signed, saturating_add_signed, wrapping_add_signed}
• iX::{checked_add_unsigned, overflowing_add_unsigned, saturating_add_unsigned, wrapping_add_unsigned}
• iX::{checked_sub_unsigned, overflowing_sub_unsigned, saturating_sub_unsigned, wrapping_sub_unsigned}
• BTreeSet::{first, last, pop_first, pop_last}
• BTreeMap::{first_key_value, last_key_value, first_entry, last_entry, pop_first, pop_last}
• Add AsFd implementations for stdio lock types on WASI.
• impl TryFrom<Vec<T>> for Box<[T; N]>
• core::hint::black_box
• Duration::try_from_secs_{f32,f64}
• Option::unzip
• std::os::fd

Rustdoc

• Add Rustdoc warning for invalid HTML tags in the documentation

Cargo

• Added cargo remove to remove dependencies from Cargo.toml
• cargo publish now waits for the new version to be downloadable before exiting

See detailed release notes for more.

Compatibility Notes

• Only apply ProceduralMasquerade hack to older versions of rental
• Don't export __heap_base and __data_end on wasm32-wasi.
• Don't export __wasm_init_memory on WebAssembly.
• Only export __tls_* on wasm32-unknown-unknown.
• Don't link to libresolv in libstd on Darwin
• Update libstd's libc to 0.2.135 (to make libstd no longer pull in libiconv.dylib on Darwin)
• Opaque types no longer imply lifetime bounds This is a soundness fix which may break code that was erroneously relying on this behavior.
• Make order_dependent_trait_objects show up in future-breakage reports
• Change std::process::Command spawning to default to inheriting the parent's signal mask

Internal Changes

These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they represent significant improvements to the performance or internals of rustc and related tools.

• Enable BOLT for LLVM compilation
• Enable LTO for rustc_driver.so
