T-compiler Meeting Agenda 2024-03-28

Announcements

  • A dot release 1.77.1 is out today to fix #122857 (Zulip discussion)
    • Immediate fix provided by cargo, rustc fix will take a bit longer (comment)
    • Will also backport #122693 (less critical)
    • blog post.
  • Reminder: if you see a PR/issue that seems like there might be legal implications due to copyright/IP/etc, please let us know (or at least message @davidtwco or @Wesley Wiser so we can pass it along).

WG checkins

Backport nominations

T-compiler beta / T-compiler stable

  • :beta: [1.78] "Encode implied predicates for traits" rust#122891
    • patch authored by @Michael Goulet (compiler-errors) (thanks!)
    • Fixes #122859, regressed on nightly: super_predicates and implied_predicates queries differ for regular traits. In cross-crate positions this means that we used to forget the implied predicates from associated type bounds. (explaination)
  • No stable nominations for T-compiler this time.

T-types stable / T-types beta

  • No beta nominations for T-types this time.
  • No stable nominations for T-types this time.

Performance logs

triage logs for 2024-03-26

An overall fairly quiet week with the unfortunate one exception of large instruction count and binary size regressions caused by changes in const evaluation. This was largely balanced out (at least in instruction count) by a group of small improvements, but the compiler did end up 0.2% slower on average across 97 benchmarks.

Triage done by @rylev.
Revision range: 21d94a3..73476d

  • Additional regressions in binary size and an issue has been opened for it: #122936

  • The improvements outweigh the regressions so there's not a huge incentive to investigate further.

  • With only small regressions on stress tests, I think it's fine if we don't investigate this too deeply.
