Emit future-incompatibility lint when calling/declaring functions with vectors that require missing target feature #127731

veluca93 · 2024-07-14T18:43:29Z

On some architectures, vector types may have a different ABI depending on whether the relevant target features are enabled. (The ABI when the feature is disabled is often not specified, but LLVM implements some de-facto ABI.)

As discussed in rust-lang/lang-team#235, this turns out to very easily lead to unsound code.

This commit makes it a post-monomorphization error to declare or call functions using those vector types in a context in which the corresponding target features are disabled, if using an ABI for which the difference is relevant. This ensures that these functions are always called with a consistent ABI.

See the nomination comment for more discussion.

These commits modify the Cargo.lock file. Unintentional changes to Cargo.lock can be introduced when switching branches and rebasing PRs.

If this was unintentional then you should revert the changes before this PR is merged.
Otherwise, you can ignore this comment.

Looks good for the initial draft, let's see what crater says. :)

Emit error when calling/declaring functions with unavailable vectors. On some architectures, vector types may have a different ABI when relevant target features are enabled. As discussed in rust-lang/lang-team#235, this turns out to very easily lead to unsound code. This commit makes it an error to declare or call functions using those vector types in a context in which the corresponding target features are disabled, if using an ABI for which the difference is relevant. r?
