`slice.get(i)` should use a slice projection in MIR, like `slice[i]` does `slice[i]` is built-in magic, so ends up being quite different from `slice.get(i)` in MIR, even though they're both doing nearly identical operations -- checking the length of the slice then getting a ref/ptr to the element if it's in-bounds. This PR adds a `slice_get_unchecked` intrinsic for `impl SliceIndex for usize` to use to fix that, so it no longer needs to do a bunch of lines of pointer math and instead just gets the obvious single statement. (This is *not* used for the range versions, since `slice[i..]` and `slice[..k]` can't use the mir Slice projection as they're using fenceposts, not indices.) I originally tried to do this with some kind of GVN pattern, but realized that I'm pretty sure it's not legal to optimize `BinOp::Offset` to `PlaceElem::Index` without an extremely complicated condition. Basically, the problem is that the `Index` projection on a dereferenced slice pointer *cares about the metadata*, since it's UB to `PlaceElem::Index` outside the range described by the metadata. But then you cast the fat pointer to a thin pointer then offset it, that *ignores* the slice length metadata, so it's possible to write things that are legal with `Offset` but would be UB if translated in the obvious way to `Index`. Checking (or even determining) the necessary conditions for that would be complicated and error-prone, whereas this intrinsic-based approach is quite straight-forward. Zero backend changes, because it just lowers to MIR, so it's already supported naturally by CTFE/Miri/cg_llvm/cg_clif.
This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
