make soft_unstable show up in future breakage reports by RalfJung · Pull Request #116274 · rust-lang/rust (original) (raw)

This is based on the pkgsrc-wip rust180 package, retaining the main pkgsrc changes as best as I could.

Pkgsrc changes:

• Adapt checksums and patches.
• Make this work again on big-endian aarch64 (at least on NetBSD).
• Make the choice of GCC = 12 work for sparc64 by testing options after options.mk is included (which is required...). Makes this work on NetBSD/sparc64 10.0 again.

• [Replace pthread RwLock with custom implementation] (rust-lang/rust#110211)
• [Implement unwind safety for Condvar on all platforms] (rust-lang/rust#121768)
• [Add ASCII fast-path for char::is_grapheme_extended] (rust-lang/rust#121138)

Stabilized APIs

• [impl Read for &Stdin] (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/io/struct.Stdin.html#impl-Read-for-%26Stdin)
• [Accept non 'static lifetimes for several std::error::Error related implementations] (rust-lang/rust#113833)

These APIs are now stable in const contexts:

• [Barrier::new()] (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/sync/struct.Barrier.html#method.new)

Cargo
