Allow arithmetic and certain bitwise ops on AtomicPtr
This is mainly to support migrating from `AtomicUsize`, for the strict provenance experiment.
This is a pretty dubious set of APIs, but it should be sufficient to allow code that's using `AtomicUsize` to manipulate a tagged pointer atomically. It's under a new feature gate, `#![feature(strict_provenance_atomic_ptr)]`, but I'm not sure if it needs its own tracking issue. I'm happy to make one, but it's not clear that it's needed.
I'm unsure if it needs changes in the various non-LLVM backends. Because we just cast things to integers anyway (and were already doing so), I doubt it.

ptr::copy and ptr::swap are doing untyped copies
The consensus in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63159 seemed to be that these operations should be "untyped", i.e., they should treat the data as raw bytes, should work when these bytes violate the validity invariant of `T`, and should exactly preserve the initialization state of the bytes that are being copied. This is already somewhat implied by the description of "copying/swapping size*N bytes" (rather than "N instances of `T`").
The implementations mostly already work that way (well, for LLVM's intrinsics the documentation is not precise enough to say what exactly happens to poison, but if this ever gets clarified to something that would *not* perfectly preserve poison, then I strongly assume there will be some way to make a copy that *does* perfectly preserve poison). However, I had to adjust `swap_nonoverlapping`; after ``@scottmcm's`` [recent changes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/94212), that one (sometimes) made a typed copy. (Note that `mem::swap`, which works on mutable references, is unchanged. It is documented as "swapping the values at two mutable locations", which to me strongly indicates that it is indeed typed. It is also safe and can rely on `&mut T` pointing to a valid `T` as part of its safety invariant.)
On top of adding a test (that will be run by Miri), this PR then also adjusts the documentation to indeed stably promise the untyped semantics. I assume this means the PR has to go through t-libs (and maybe t-lang?) FCP.

[core] add `Exclusive` to sync
(discussed here: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/219381-t-libs/topic/Adding.20.60SyncWrapper.60.20to.20std)
`Exclusive` is a wrapper that exclusively allows mutable access to the inner value if you have exclusive access to the wrapper. It acts like a compile time mutex, and hold an unconditional `Sync` implementation.
## Justification for inclusion into std
- This wrapper unblocks actual problems:
- The example that I hit was a vector of `futures::future::BoxFuture`'s causing a central struct in a script to be non-`Sync`. To work around it, you either write really difficult code, or wrap the futures in a needless mutex.
- Easy to maintain: this struct is as simple as a wrapper can get, and its `Sync` implementation has very clear reasoning
- Fills a gap: `&/&mut` are to `RwLock` as `Exclusive` is to `Mutex`
## Public Api
```rust
// core::sync
#[derive(Default)]
struct Exclusive<T: ?Sized> { ... }
impl<T: ?Sized> Sync for Exclusive {}
impl<T> Exclusive<T> {
pub const fn new(t: T) -> Self;
pub const fn into_inner(self) -> T;
}
impl<T: ?Sized> Exclusive<T> {
pub const fn get_mut(&mut self) -> &mut T;
pub const fn get_pin_mut(Pin<&mut self>) -> Pin<&mut T>;
pub const fn from_mut(&mut T) -> &mut Exclusive<T>;
pub const fn from_pin_mut(Pin<&mut T>) -> Pin<&mut Exclusive<T>>;
}
impl<T: Future> Future for Exclusive { ... }
impl<T> From<T> for Exclusive<T> { ... }
impl<T: ?Sized> Debug for Exclusive { ... }
```
## Naming
This is a big bikeshed, but I felt that `Exclusive` captured its general purpose quite well.
## Stability and location
As this is so simple, it can be in `core`. I feel that it can be stabilized quite soon after it is merged, if the libs teams feels its reasonable to add. Also, I don't really know how unstable feature work in std/core's codebases, so I might need help fixing them
## Tips for review
The docs probably are the thing that needs to be reviewed! I tried my best, but I'm sure people have more experience than me writing docs for `Core`
### Implementation:
The API is mostly pulled from https://docs.rs/sync_wrapper/latest/sync_wrapper/struct.SyncWrapper.html (which is apache 2.0 licenesed), and the implementation is trivial:
- its an unsafe justification for pinning
- its an unsafe justification for the `Sync` impl (mostly reasoned about by ````@danielhenrymantilla```` here: https://github.com/Actyx/sync_wrapper/pull/2)
- and forwarding impls, starting with derivable ones and `Future`
Simplify memory ordering intrinsics
This changes the names of the atomic intrinsics to always fully include their memory ordering arguments.
```diff
- atomic_cxchg
+ atomic_cxchg_seqcst_seqcst
- atomic_cxchg_acqrel
+ atomic_cxchg_acqrel_release
- atomic_cxchg_acqrel_failrelaxed
+ atomic_cxchg_acqrel_relaxed
// And so on.
```
- `seqcst` is no longer implied
- The failure ordering on chxchg is no longer implied in some cases, but now always explicitly part of the name.
- `release` is no longer shortened to just `rel`. That was especially confusing, since `relaxed` also starts with `rel`.
- `acquire` is no longer shortened to just `acq`, such that the names now all match the `std::sync::atomic::Ordering` variants exactly.
- This now allows for more combinations on the compare exchange operations, such as `atomic_cxchg_acquire_release`, which is necessary for #68464.
- This PR only exposes the new possibilities through unstable intrinsics, but not yet through the stable API. That's for [a separate PR](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98383) that requires an FCP.
Suffixes for operations with a single memory order:
| Order | Before | After |
|---------|--------------|------------|
| Relaxed | `_relaxed` | `_relaxed` |
| Acquire | `_acq` | `_acquire` |
| Release | `_rel` | `_release` |
| AcqRel | `_acqrel` | `_acqrel` |
| SeqCst | (none) | `_seqcst` |
Suffixes for compare-and-exchange operations with two memory orderings:

Refactor iter adapters with less macros
Just some code cleanup. Introduced a util `and_then_or_clear` for each of chain, flatten and fuse iter adapter impls. This reduces code nicely for flatten, but admittedly the other modules are more of a lateral move replacing macros with a function. But I think consistency across the modules and avoiding macros when possible is good.
libcore tests: avoid int2ptr casts
We don't need any of these pointers to actually be dereferenceable so using `ptr::invalid` should be fine. And then we can run Miri with strict provenance enforcement on the tests.
This commit adds new methods that combine sequences of existing
formatting methods.
- `Formatter::debug_{tuple,struct}_field[12345]_finish`, equivalent to a
`Formatter::debug_{tuple,struct}` + N x `Debug{Tuple,Struct}::field` +
`Debug{Tuple,Struct}::finish` call sequence.
- `Formatter::debug_{tuple,struct}_fields_finish` is similar, but can
handle any number of fields by using arrays.
These new methods are all marked as `doc(hidden)` and unstable. They are
intended for the compiler's own use.
Special-casing up to 5 fields gives significantly better performance
results than always using arrays (as was tried in #95637).
The commit also changes the `Debug` deriving code to use these new methods. For
example, where the old `Debug` code for a struct with two fields would be like
this:
```
fn fmt(&self, f: &mut ::core::fmt::Formatter) -> ::core::fmt::Result {
match *self {
Self {
f1: ref __self_0_0,
f2: ref __self_0_1,
} => {
let debug_trait_builder = &mut ::core::fmt::Formatter::debug_struct(f, "S2");
let _ = ::core::fmt::DebugStruct::field(debug_trait_builder, "f1", &&(*__self_0_0));
let _ = ::core::fmt::DebugStruct::field(debug_trait_builder, "f2", &&(*__self_0_1));
::core::fmt::DebugStruct::finish(debug_trait_builder)
}
}
}
```
the new code is like this:
```
fn fmt(&self, f: &mut ::core::fmt::Formatter) -> ::core::fmt::Result {
match *self {
Self {
f1: ref __self_0_0,
f2: ref __self_0_1,
} => ::core::fmt::Formatter::debug_struct_field2_finish(
f,
"S2",
"f1",
&&(*__self_0_0),
"f2",
&&(*__self_0_1),
),
}
}
```
This shrinks the code produced for `Debug` instances
considerably, reducing compile times and binary sizes.

clarify how Rust atomics correspond to C++ atomics
``@cbeuw`` noted in https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/pull/1963 that the correspondence between C++ atomics and Rust atomics is not quite as obvious as one might think, since in Rust I can use `get_mut` to treat previously non-atomic data as atomic. However, I think using C++20 `atomic_ref`, we can establish a suitable relation between the two -- or do you see problems with that ``@cbeuw?`` (I recall you said there was some issue, but it was deep inside that PR and Github makes it impossible to find...)

use strict provenance APIs
The stdlib was adjusted to avoid bare int2ptr casts, but recently some casts of that sort have sneaked back in. Let's fix that. :)
implement ptr.addr() via transmute
As per the discussion in https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/286, the semantics for ptr-to-int transmutes that we are going with for now is to make them strip provenance without exposing it. That's exactly what `ptr.addr()` does! So we can implement `ptr.addr()` via `transmute`. This also means that once https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97684 lands, Miri can distinguish `ptr.addr()` from `ptr.expose_addr()`, and the following code will correctly be called out as having UB (if permissive provenance mode is enabled, which will become the default once the [implementation is complete](https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/2133)):
```rust
fn main() {
let x: i32 = 3;
let x_ptr = &x as *const i32;
let x_usize: usize = x_ptr.addr();
// Cast back an address that did *not* get exposed.
let ptr = std::ptr::from_exposed_addr::<i32>(x_usize);
assert_eq!(unsafe { *ptr }, 3); //~ ERROR Undefined Behavior: dereferencing pointer failed
}
```
This completes the Miri implementation of the new distinctions introduced by strict provenance. :)
Cc `@Gankra` -- for now I left in your `FIXME(strict_provenance_magic)` saying these should be intrinsics, but I do not necessarily agree that they should be. Or if we have an intrinsic, I think it should behave exactly like the `transmute` does, which makes one wonder why the intrinsic should be needed.

Corrected EBNF grammar for from_str
Hello! This is my first time contributing to an open-source project. I'm excited to have the chance to contribute to the rust community 🥳
I noticed an issue with the documentation for `from_str` in `f32` and `f64`. It states that "All strings that adhere to the following [EBNF](https://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-notation) grammar when lowercased will result in an `Ok` being returned. I believe this is incorrect for the string `"."`, which is valid for the given EBNF grammar, but does not result in an `Ok` being returned ([playground](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2021&gist=09f891aa87963a56d3b0d715d8cbc2b4)). I have simplified the grammar in a way which fixes that, but is otherwise identical.
Previously, the `Number` part of the EBNF grammar had an option for `'.' Digit*`, which would include the string `"."`. This is not valid, and does not return an Ok as stated. The corrected version removes this, and still allows for the `'.' Digit+` case with the already existing `Digit* '.' Digit+` case.
Add unicode fast path to `is_printable`
Before, it would enter the full expensive check even for normal ascii characters. Now, it skips the check for the ascii characters in `32..127`. This range was checked manually from the current behavior.
I ran the `tracing` test suite in miri, and it was really slow. I looked at a profile, and miri spent most of the time in `core::char::methods::escape_debug_ext`, where half of that was dominated by `core::unicode::printable::is_printable`. So I optimized it here.

The tests inside `library/*` have no reason to use `box` syntax as they have 0 performance relevance. Therefore, we can safely remove them (instead of having to use alternatives like the one in #97293).

ptr::invalid is not equivalent to a int2ptr cast

Partially stabilize `(const_)slice_ptr_len` feature by stabilizing `NonNull::len`
This PR partially stabilizes features `const_slice_ptr_len` and `slice_ptr_len` by only stabilizing `NonNull::len`. This partial stabilization is tracked under features `slice_ptr_len_nonnull` and `const_slice_ptr_len_nonnull`, for which this PR can serve as the tracking issue.
To summarize the discussion from #71146 leading up to this partial stabilization request:
It's currently a bit footgunny to obtain the length of a raw slice pointer, stabilization of `NonNull:len` will help with removing these footguns. Some example footguns are:
```rust
/// # Safety
/// The caller must ensure that `ptr`:
/// 1. does not point to memory that was previously allocated but is now deallocated;
/// 2. is within the bounds of a single allocated object;
/// 3. does not to point to a slice for which the length exceeds `isize::MAX` bytes;
/// 4. points to a properly aligned address;
/// 5. does not point to uninitialized memory;
/// 6. does not point to a mutably borrowed memory location.
pub unsafe fn ptr_len<T>(ptr: core::ptr::NonNull<[T]>) -> usize {
(&*ptr.as_ptr()).len()
}
```
A slightly less complicated version (but still more complicated than it needs to be):
```rust
/// # Safety
/// The caller must ensure that the start of `ptr`:
/// 1. does not point to memory that was previously allocated but is now deallocated;
/// 2. must be within the bounds of a single allocated object.
pub unsafe fn ptr_len<T>(ptr: NonNull<[T]>) -> usize {
(&*(ptr.as_ptr() as *const [()])).len()
}
```
This PR does not stabilize `<*const [T]>::len` and `<*mut [T]>::len` because the tracking issue #71146 list a potential blocker for these methods, but this blocker [does not apply](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/71146#issuecomment-808735714) to `NonNull::len`.
We should probably also ping the [Constant Evaluation WG](https://github.com/rust-lang/const-eval) since this PR includes a `#[rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable(const_slice_ptr_len)]`. My instinct here is that this will probably be okay because the pointer is not actually dereferenced and `len()` does not touch the address component of the pointer, but would be best to double check :)
One potential down-side was raised that stabilizing `NonNull::len` could lead to encouragement of coding patterns like:
```
pub fn ptr_len<T>(ptr: *mut [T]) -> usize {
NonNull::new(ptr).unwrap().len()
}
```
which unnecessarily assert non-nullness. However, these are much less of a footgun than the above examples and this should be resolved when `slice_ptr_len` fully stabilizes eventually.
It looks like the last time had left some remaining cfg's -- which made me think
that the stage0 bump was actually successful. This brings us to a released 1.62
beta though.
Add section on common message styles for Result::expect
Based on a question from https://github.com/rust-lang/project-error-handling/issues/50#issuecomment-1092339937
~~One thing I haven't decided on yet, should I duplicate this section on `Option::expect`, link to this section, or move it somewhere else and link to that location from both docs?~~: I ended up moving the section to `std::error` and referencing it from both `Result::expect` and `Option::expect`'s docs.
I think this section, when combined with the similar update I made on [`std::panic!`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/macro.panic.html#when-to-use-panic-vs-result) implies that we should possibly more aggressively encourage and support the "expect as precondition" style described in this section. The consensus among the libs team seems to be that panic should be used for bugs, not expected potential failure modes. The "expect as error message" style seems to align better with the panic for unrecoverable errors style where they're seen as normal errors where the only difference is a desire to kill the current execution unit (aka erlang style error handling). I'm wondering if we should be providing a panic hook similar to `human-panic` or more strongly recommending the "expect as precondition" style of expect message.
Extend ptr::null and null_mut to all thin (including extern) types
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/93959
This change was accepted in https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2580-ptr-meta.html
Note that this changes the signature of **stable** functions. The change should be backward-compatible, but it is **insta-stable** since it cannot (easily, at all?) be made available only through a `#![feature(…)]` opt-in.
The RFC also proposed the same change for `NonNull::dangling`, which makes sense it terms of its signature but not in terms of its implementation. `dangling` uses `align_of()` as an address. But what `align_of()` should be for extern types or whether it should be allowed at all remains an open question.
This commit depends on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/93977, which is not yet part of the bootstrap compiler. So `#[cfg]` is used to only apply the change in stage 1+. As far a I know bounds cannot be made conditional with `#[cfg]`, so the entire functions are duplicated. This is unfortunate but temporary.
Since this duplication makes it less obvious in the diff, the new definitions differ in:
* More permissive bounds (`Thin` instead of implied `Sized`)
* Different implementation
* Having `rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable(const_fn_trait_bound)`
* Having `rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable(ptr_metadata)`

let mut a = Capture::new();
let mut b = Capture::new();
(&Wrapper(&1i32)).try_capture(&mut a); // `try_capture` from `TryCapturePrintable`
(&Wrapper(&vec![1i32])).try_capture(&mut b); // `try_capture` from `TryCaptureGeneric`
assert_eq!(format!("{:?}", a), "1");
assert_eq!(format!("{:?}", b), "N/A");
}
```

Change orderings of `Debug` for the Atomic types to `Relaxed`.
This reduces synchronization between threads when debugging the atomic types. Reducing the synchronization means that executions with and without the debug calls will be more consistent, making it easier to debug.
We discussed this on the Rust Community Discord with `@ibraheemdev` before.
explain how to turn integers into fn ptrs
(with an intermediate raw ptr, not a direct transmute)
Direct int2ptr transmute, under the semantics I am imagining, will produce a ptr with "invalid" provenance that is invalid to deref or call. We cannot give it the same semantics as int2ptr casts since those do [something complicated](https://www.ralfj.de/blog/2022/04/11/provenance-exposed.html).
To my great surprise, that is already what the example in the `transmute` docs does. :) I still added a comment to say that that part is important, and I added a section explicitly talking about this to the `fn()` type docs.
With https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/pull/2151, Miri will start complaining about direct int-to-fnptr transmutes (in the sense that it is UB to call the resulting pointer).
Document rounding for floating-point primitive operations and string parsing
The docs for floating point don't have much to say at present about either the precision of their results or rounding behaviour.
As I understand it[^1][^2], Rust doesn't support operating with non-default rounding directions, so we need only describe roundTiesToEven.

[^2]: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/8472#issuecomment-980888781
This PR makes a start by documenting that for primitive operations and `from_str()`.
Clarify slice and Vec iteration order
While already being inferable from the doc examples, it wasn't fully specified. This is the only logical way to do a slice iterator, so I think this should be uncontroversial. It also improves the `Vec::into_iter` example to better show the order and that the iterator returns owned values.
Change `NonNull::as_uninit_*` to take self by value (as opposed to reference), matching primitive pointers.
Copied from my comment on [#75402](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/75402#issuecomment-1100496823):
> I noticed that `as_uninit_*` on pointers take `self` by value (and pointers are `Copy`), e.g. see [`as_uninit_mut`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/core/primitive.pointer.html#method.as_uninit_mut).

> However, on `NonNull`, these functions take `self` by reference, e.g. see the function with the same name by for `NonNull`: [`as_uninit_mut`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ptr/struct.NonNull.html#method.as_uninit_mut) takes `self` by mutable reference. Even more inconsistent, [`as_uninit_slice_mut`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ptr/struct.NonNull.html#method.as_uninit_slice_mut) returns a mutable reference, but takes `self` by immutable reference.

> I think these methods should take `self` by value for consistency. The returned lifetime is unbounded anyways and not tied to the pointer/NonNull value anyways
I realized the change is trivial (if desired) so here I am creating my first PR. I think it's not a breaking change since (it's on nightly and) `NonNull` is `Copy`; all previous usages of these methods taking `self` by reference should continue to compile. However, it might cause warnings to appear on usages of `NonNull::as_uninit_mut`, which used to require the the `NonNull` variable be declared `mut`, but now it's not necessary.
Fix `Display` for `cell::{Ref,RefMut}`
These guards changed to pointers in #97027, but their `Display` was
formatting that field directly, which made it show the raw pointer
value. Now we go through `Deref` to display the real value again.
Miri noticed this change, #97204, so hopefully that will be fixed.
Stabilize `array_from_fn`
## Overall
Stabilizes `core::array::from_fn` ~~and `core::array::try_from_fn`~~ to allow the creation of custom infallible ~~and fallible~~ arrays.
Signature proposed for stabilization here, tweaked as requested in the meeting:
```rust
// in core::array
pub fn from_fn<T, const N: usize, F>(_: F) -> [T; N];
```
Examples in https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/array/fn.from_fn.html
## History
* On 2020-08-17, implementation was [proposed](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/75644).
* On 2021-09-29, tracking issue was [created](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/89379).
* On 2021-10-09, the proposed implementation was [merged](bc8ad24020).
* On 2021-12-03, the return type of `try_from_fn` was [changed](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/91286#issuecomment-985513407).
## Considerations
* It is being assumed that indices are useful and shouldn't be removed from the callbacks
* The fact that `try_from_fn` returns an unstable type `R: Try` does not prevent stabilization. Although I'm honestly not sure about it.
* The addition or not of repeat-like variants is orthogonal to this PR.
These considerations are not ways of saying what is better or what is worse. In reality, they are an attempt to move things forward, anything really.

Implement Copy, Clone, PartialEq and Eq for core::fmt::Alignment
Alignment is a fieldless exhaustive enum, so it is already possible to
clone and compare it by matching, but it is inconvenient to do so. For
example, if one would like to create a struct describing a formatter
configuration and provide a clone implementation:
```rust
pub struct Format {
fill: char,
width: Option<usize>,
align: fmt::Alignment,
}
impl Clone for Format {
fn clone(&self) -> Self {
Format {
align: match self.align {
fmt::Alignment::Left => fmt::Alignment::Left,
fmt::Alignment::Right => fmt::Alignment::Right,
fmt::Alignment::Center => fmt::Alignment::Center,
},
.. *self
}
}
}
```
Derive Copy, Clone, PartialEq, and Eq for Alignment for convenience.
make ptr::invalid not the same as a regular int2ptr cast
In Miri, we would like to distinguish `ptr::invalid` from `ptr::from_exposed_provenance`, so that we can provide better diagnostics issues like https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/2134, and so that we can detect the UB in programs like
```rust
fn main() {
let x = 0u8;
let original_ptr = &x as *const u8;
let addr = original_ptr.expose_addr();
let new_ptr: *const u8 = core::ptr::invalid(addr);
unsafe {
dbg!(*new_ptr);
}
}
```
To achieve that, the two functions need to have different implementations. Currently, both are just `as` casts. We *could* add an intrinsic for this, but it turns out `transmute` already has the right behavior, at least as far as Miri is concerned. So I propose we just use that.

Add implicit call to from_str via parse in documentation
The documentation mentions "FromStr’s from_str method is often used implicitly,
through str’s parse method. See parse’s documentation for examples.".
It may be nicer to show that in the code example as well.
These guards changed to pointers in #97027, but their `Display` was
formatting that field directly, which made it show the raw pointer
value. Now we go through `Deref` to display the real value again.
