Tooling
-------
* [rustup is the recommended Rust installation method][1.14rustup]
* This release includes host (rustc) builds for Linux on MIPS, PowerPC, and
S390x. These are [tier 2] platforms and may have major defects. Follow the
instructions on the website to install, or add the targets to an existing
installation with rustup target add. The new target triples are:
- mips-unknown-linux-gnu
- mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu
- mips64-unknown-linux-gnuabi64
- mips64el-unknown-linux-gnuabi64
- powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu
- powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu
- powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu
- s390x-unknown-linux-gnu
* This release includes target (std) builds for ARM Linux running MUSL
libc. These are [tier 2] platforms and may have major defects. Add the
following triples to an existing rustup installation with rustup target add:
- arm-unknown-linux-musleabi
- arm-unknown-linux-musleabihf
- armv7-unknown-linux-musleabihf
* This release includes [experimental support for WebAssembly][1.14wasm], via
the wasm32-unknown-emscripten target. This target is known to have major
defects. Please test, report, and fix.
* rustup no longer installs documentation by default. Run rustup
component add rust-docs to install.
* [Fix line stepping in debugger][37310]
* [Enable line number debuginfo in releases][37280]
Misc
----
* [Disable jemalloc on aarch64/powerpc/mips][37392]
* [Add support for Fuchsia OS][37313]
* [Detect local-rebuild by only MAJOR.MINOR version][37273]
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
* [A number of forward-compatibility lints used by the compiler
to gradually introduce language changes have been converted
to deny by default][36894]:
- ["use of inaccessible extern crate erroneously allowed"][36886]
- ["type parameter default erroneously allowed in invalid location"][36887]
- ["detects super or self keywords at the beginning of global path"][36888]
- ["two overlapping inherent impls define an item with the same name
were erroneously allowed"][36889]
- ["floating-point constants cannot be used in patterns"][36890]
- ["constants of struct or enum type can only be used in a pattern if
the struct or enum has #[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]"][36891]
- ["lifetimes or labels named '_ were erroneously allowed"][36892]
* [Prohibit patterns in trait methods without bodies][37378]
* [The atomic Ordering enum may not be matched exhaustively][37351]
* [Future-proofing #[no_link] breaks some obscure cases][37247]
* [The $crate macro variable is accepted in fewer locations][37213]
* [Impls specifying extra region requirements beyond the trait
they implement are rejected][37167]
* [Enums may not be unsized][37111]. Unsized enums are intended to
work but never have. For now they are forbidden.
* [Enforce the shadowing restrictions from RFC 1560 for today's macros][36767]
