Stability oddity with const intrinsics
cc `@RalfJung`
In https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80699#discussion_r551495670 `@usbalbin` realized we accepted some intrinsics as `const` without a `#[rustc_const_(un)stable]` attribute. I did some digging, and that example works because intrinsics inherit their stability from their parents... including `#[rustc_const_(un)stable]` attributes. While we may want to fix that (not sure, wasn't there just a MCPed PR that caused this on purpose?), we definitely want tests for it, thus this PR adding tests and some fun tracing statements.
Add NonZeroUn::is_power_of_two
This saves instructions on both new and old machines <https://rust.godbolt.org/z/4fjTMz>
- On the default x64 target (with no fancy instructions available) it saves a few instructions by not needing to also check for zero.
- On newer targets (with BMI1) it uses `BLSR` for super-short assembly.
This can be used for things like checks against alignments stored in `NonZeroUsize`.
Add `as_rchunks` (and friends) to slices
`@est31` mentioned (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76354#issuecomment-717027175) that, for completeness, there needed to be an `as_chunks`-like method that chunks from the end (with the remainder at the beginning) like `rchunks` does.
So here's a PR for `as_rchunks: &[T] -> (&[T], &[[T; N]])` and `as_rchunks_mut: &mut [T] -> (&mut [T], &mut [[T; N]])`.
But as I was doing this and copy-pasting `from_raw_parts` calls, I thought that I should extract that into an unsafe method. It started out a private helper, but it seemed like `as_chunks_unchecked` could be reasonable as a "real" method, so I added docs and made it public. Let me know if you think it doesn't pull its weight.

TrustedRandomAaccess specialization composes incorrectly for nested iter::Zips
I found this while working on improvements for TRA.
After partially consuming a Zip adapter and then wrapping it into another Zip where the adapters use their `TrustedRandomAccess` specializations leads to the outer adapter returning elements which should have already been consumed.
If the optimizer gets tripped up by the addition this might affect performance for chained `zip()` iterators even when the inner one is not partially advanced but it would require more extensive fixes to `TrustedRandomAccess` to communicate those offsets earlier.
Included test fails on nightly, [playground link](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=24fa1edf8a104ff31f5a24830593b01f)
implement ptr::write without dedicated intrinsic
This makes `ptr::write` more consistent with `ptr::write_unaligned`, `ptr::read`, `ptr::read_unaligned`, all of which are implemented in terms of `copy_nonoverlapping`.
This means we can also remove `move_val_init` implementations in codegen and Miri, and its special handling in the borrow checker.

Fix formatting specifiers doc links
d36e3e23a8 seems to have inadvertently changed many of these links to point to `core::fmt` instead of `std::fmt`. The information about formatting specifiers is only documented in [`std::fmt`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/fmt/); [`core::fmt`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/core/fmt/) is empty. 3baf6a4a74 seems to have already fixed a couple of these links to point back to `std::fmt`.
Deprecate atomic::spin_loop_hint in favour of hint::spin_loop
For https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/55002
We wanted to leave `atomic::spin_loop_hint` alone when stabilizing `hint::spin_loop` so folks had some time to migrate. This now deprecates `atomic_spin_loop_hint`.
Add Iterator::intersperse_with
This is a follow-up to #79479, tracking in #79524, as discussed https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79479#issuecomment-752671731.
~~Note that I had to manually implement `Clone` and `Debug` because `derive` insists on placing a `Clone`-bound on the struct-definition, which is too narrow. There is a long-standing issue # for this somewhere around here :-)~~
Also, note that I refactored the guts of `Intersperse` into private functions and re-used them in `IntersperseWith`, so I also went light on duplicating all the tests.
If this is suitable to be merged, the tracking issue should be updated, since it only mentions `intersperse`.
Happy New Year!

Add as_ref and as_mut methods for Bound
Add as_ref and as_mut method for std::ops::range::Bound, patterned off
of the methods of the same name on Option.
I'm not quite sure what the process is for introducing new feature gates (this is my first contribution) so I've left these ungated, but happy to do whatever is necessary to gate them.
These tests invoke the various op traits using all accepted types they
are implemented for as well as for references to those types.
This fixes#49660 and ensures the following implementations exist:
* `Add`, `Sub`, `Mul`, `Div`, `Rem`
* `T op T`, `T op &T`, `&T op T` and `&T op &T`
* for all integer and floating point types
* `AddAssign`, `SubAssign`, `MulAssign`, `DivAssign`, `RemAssign`
* `&mut T op T` and `&mut T op &T`
* for all integer and floating point types
* `Neg`
* `op T` and `op &T`
* for all signed integer and floating point types
* `Not`
* `op T` and `op &T`
* for `bool`
* `BitAnd`, `BitOr`, `BitXor`
* `T op T`, `T op &T`, `&T op T` and `&T op &T`
* for all integer types and bool
* `BitAndAssign`, `BitOrAssign`, `BitXorAssign`
* `&mut T op T` and `&mut T op &T`
* for all integer types and bool
* `Shl`, `Shr`
* `L op R`, `L op &R`, `&L op R` and `&L op &R`
* for all pairs of integer types
* `ShlAssign`, `ShrAssign`
* `&mut L op R`, `&mut L op &R`

Stabilize split_inclusive
### Contents of this MR
This stabilises:
* `slice::split_inclusive`
* `slice::split_inclusive_mut`
* `str::split_inclusive`
Closes#72360.
### A possible concern
The proliferation of `split_*` methods is not particularly pretty. The existence of `split_inclusive` seems to invite the addition of `rsplit_inclusive`, `splitn_inclusive`, etc. We could instead have a more general API, along these kinds of lines maybe:
```
pub fn split_generic('a,P,H>(&'a self, pat: P, how: H) -> ...
where P: Pattern
where H: SplitHow;
pub fn split_generic_mut('a,P,H>(&'a mut self, pat: P, how: H) -> ...
where P: Pattern
where H: SplitHow;
trait SplitHow {
fn reverse(&self) -> bool;
fn inclusive -> bool;
fn limit(&self) -> Option<usize>;
}
pub struct SplitFwd;
...
pub struct SplitRevInclN(pub usize);
```
But maybe that is worse.
### Let us defer that? ###
This seems like a can of worms. I think we can defer opening it now; if and when we have something more general, these two methods can become convenience aliases. But I thought I would mention it so the lang API team can consider it and have an opinion.
Add `MaybeUninit` method `array_assume_init`
When initialising an array element-by-element, the conversion to the initialised array is done through `mem::transmute`, which is both ugly and does not work with const generics (see #61956). This PR proposes the associated method `array_assume_init`, matching the style of `slice_assume_init_*`:
```rust
unsafe fn array_assume_init<T, const N: usize>(array: [MaybeUninit<T>; N]) -> [T; N];
```
Example:
```rust
let mut array: [MaybeUninit<i32>; 3] = MaybeUninit::uninit_array();
array[0].write(0);
array[1].write(1);
array[2].write(2);
// SAFETY: Now safe as we initialised all elements
let array: [i32; 3] = unsafe {
MaybeUninit::array_assume_init(array)
};
```
Things I'm unsure about:
* Should this be a method of array instead?
* Should the function be const?
std/core docs: fix wrong link in PartialEq
PartialEq doc was attempting to link to ``[`Eq`]`` but instead we got a link to `` `eq` ``. Disambiguate with `trait@Eq`.
You can see the bad link [here](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.PartialEq.html) (Second sentence, "floating point types implement PartialEq but not Eq").
These methods work very similarly to `Option`'s methods `as_ref` and
`as_mut`. They are useful in several situation, particularly when
calling other array methods (like `map`) on the result. Unfortunately,
we can't easily call them `as_ref` and `as_mut` as that would shadow
those methods on slices, thus being a breaking change (that is likely
to affect a lot of code).
In particular:
- `unwrap_unchecked()` for `Option`.
- `unwrap_unchecked()` and `unwrap_err_unchecked()` for `Result`.
These complement other `*_unchecked()` methods in `core` etc.
Currently there are a couple of places it may be used inside rustc
(`LinkedList`, `BTree`). It is also easy to find other repositories
with similar functionality.
Fixes#48278.

Implement From<char> for u64 and u128.
With this PR you can write
```
let u = u64::from('👤');
let u = u128::from('👤');
```
Previously, you could already write `as` conversions ([Playground link](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=cee18febe28e69024357d099f07ca081)):

dbg!('👤' as u64); // Prints 128100
dbg!('👤' as u128); // Prints 128100
// truncates, thus no `From` impls.
dbg!('👤' as u8); // Prints 100
dbg!('👤' as u16); // Prints 62564
// These `From` impls already exist.
dbg!(u32::from('👤')); // Prints 128100
dbg!(u64::from(u32::from('👤'))); // Prints 128100
```
The idea is from ``@gendx`` who opened [this Internals thread](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/implement-from-char-for-u64/13454), and ``@withoutboats`` responded that someone should open a PR for it.
Some people mentioned `From<char>` impls for `f32` and `f64`, but that doesn't seem correct to me, so I didn't include them here.
I don't know what the feature should be named. Must it be registered somewhere, like unstable features?

Stabilize slice::strip_prefix and slice::strip_suffix
These two methods are useful. The corresponding methods on `str` are already stable.
I believe that stablising these now would not get in the way of, in the future, extending these to take a richer pattern API a la `str`'s patterns.
Tracking PR: #73413. I also have an outstanding PR to improve the docs for these two functions and the corresponding ones on `str`: #75078
I have tried to follow the [instructions in the dev guide](https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/stabilization_guide.html#stabilization-pr). The part to do with `compiler/rustc_feature` did not seem applicable. I assume that's because these are just library features, so there is no corresponding machinery in rustc.
Change:
```
`parse` can parse any type that...
```
to:
```
`parse` can parse into any type that...
```
Word `into` added to be more precise and in coherence with other parts of the doc.

remove allow(incomplete_features) from std
cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80349#issuecomment-753357123
> Now I am somewhat concerned that the standard library uses some of these features...
I think it is theoretically ok to use incomplete features in the standard library or the compiler if we know that there is an already working subset and we explicitly document what we have to be careful about. Though at that point it is probably better to try and split the incomplete feature into two separate ones, similar to `min_specialization`.
Will be interesting once `feature(const_evaluatable_checked)` works well enough to imo be used in the compiler but not yet well enough to be removed from `INCOMPLETE_FEATURES`.

Add docs note about `Any::type_id` on smart pointers
Fixes#79868.
There's an issue I've run into a couple times while using values of type `Box<dyn Any>` - essentially, calling `value.type_id()` doesn't dereference to the trait object, but uses the implementation of `Any` for `Box<dyn Any>`, giving us the `TypeId` of the container instead of the object inside it.
I couldn't find any notes about this in the documentation and - while it could be inferred from existing knowledge of Rust and the blanket implemenation of `Any` - I think it'd be nice to have a note about it in the documentation for the `any` module.
Anyways, here's a first draft of a section about it. I'm happy to revise wording :)
The return of the GroupBy and GroupByMut iterators on slice
According to https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2477#issuecomment-742034372, I am opening this PR again, this time I implemented it in safe Rust only, it is therefore much easier to read and is completely safe.
This PR proposes to add two new methods to the slice, the `group_by` and `group_by_mut`. These two methods provide a way to iterate over non-overlapping sub-slices of a base slice that are separated by the predicate given by the user (e.g. `Partial::eq`, `|a, b| a.abs() < b.abs()`).
```rust
let slice = &[1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2];
let mut iter = slice.group_by(|a, b| a == b);
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&[1, 1, 1][..]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&[3, 3][..]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&[2, 2, 2][..]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), None);
```

Add "chr" as doc alias to char::from_u32
Many programming languages provide a function called `chr` - Perl, Python, PHP, Visual Basic, SQL. This change makes `char::from_u32` easier to discover in the documentation.
`ord` is not added as its name conflicts with `Ord` trait, and it's not exactly clear what it could point to (`<u32 as From<char>>::from`?). I don't think it's exactly necessary, as `char::from_u32` documentation page says you can do reverse conversion with `as` operator anyway.
Add "length" as doc alias to len methods
Currently when searching for `length` there are no results: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/?search=length. This makes `len` methods appear when searching for `length`.
Add `impl Div<NonZeroU{0}> for u{0}` which cannot panic

Avoiding the `panic` currently requires `unsafe` code.
This PR adds an `impl Div<NonZeroU{0}> for u{0}` (and `impl Rem<NonZeroU{0}> for u{0}`) which calls the `unchecked_div` (and `unchecked_rem`) intrinsic without any additional checks,
making the following code compile:
```
pub fn safe_div(x: u32, y: std::num::NonZeroU32) -> u32 {
x / y
}
pub fn safe_rem(x: u32, y: std::num::NonZeroU32) -> u32 {
x % y
}
```
The doc is set to match the regular div impl [docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/src/core/ops/arith.rs.html#460).
I've marked these as stable because (as I understand it) trait impls are automatically stable. I'm happy to change it to unstable if needed.
Following `@dtolnay` template from a similar issue:
this adds the following **stable** impls, which rely on dividing unsigned integers by nonzero integers being well defined and previously would have involved unsafe code to encode that knowledge:
```
impl Div<NonZeroU8> for u8 {
type Output = u8;
}
impl Rem<NonZeroU8> for u8 {
type Output = u8;
}
```
and equivalent for u16, u32, u64, u128, usize, but **not** for i8, i16, i32, i64, i128, isize (since -1/MIN is undefined).
r? `@dtolnay`
We hope later to extend `core::str::Pattern` to slices too, perhaps as
part of stabilising that. We want to minimise the amount of type
inference breakage when we do that, so we don't want to stabilise
strip_prefix and strip_suffix taking a simple `&[T]`.
@KodrAus suggested the approach of introducing a new perma-unstable
trait, which reduces this future inference break risk.
I found it necessary to make two impls of this trait, as the unsize
coercion don't apply when hunting for trait implementations.
Since SlicePattern's only method returns a reference, and the whole
trait is just a wrapper for slices, I made the trait type be the
non-reference type [T] or [T;N] rather than the reference. Otherwise
the trait would have a lifetime parameter.
I marked both the no-op conversion functions `#[inline]`. I'm not
sure if that is necessary but it seemed at the very least harmless.

Deprecate atomic compare_and_swap method
Finish implementing [RFC 1443](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1443-extended-compare-and-swap.md) (https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1443).
It was decided to deprecate `compare_and_swap` [back in Rust 1.12 already](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/31767#issuecomment-215903038). I can't find any info about that decision being reverted. My understanding is just that it has been forgotten. If there has been a decision on keeping `compare_and_swap` then it's hard to find, and even if this PR does not go through it can act as a place where people can find out about the decision being reverted.
Atomic operations are hard to understand, very hard. And it does not help that there are multiple similar methods to do compare and swap with. They are so similar that for a reader it might be hard to understand the difference. This PR aims to make that simpler by finally deprecating `compare_and_swap` which is essentially just a more limited version of `compare_exchange`. The documentation is also updated (according to the RFC text) to explain the differences a bit better.
Even if we decide to not deprecate `compare_and_swap`. I still think the documentation for the atomic operations should be improved to better describe their differences and similarities. And the documentation can be written nicer than the PR currently proposes, but I wanted to start somewhere. Most of it is just copied from the RFC.
The documentation for `compare_exchange` and `compare_exchange_weak` indeed describe how they work! The problem is that they are more complex and harder to understand than `compare_and_swap`. So for someone who does not fully grasp this they might fall back to using `compare_and_swap`. Making the documentation outline the similarities and differences might build a bridge for people so they can cross over to the more powerful and sometimes more efficient operations.
The conversions I do to avoid the `std` internal deprecation errors are very straight forward `compare_and_swap -> compare_exchange` changes where the orderings are just using the mapping in the new documentation. Only in one place did I use `compare_exchange_weak`. This can probably be improved further. But the goal here was not for those operations to be perfect. Just to not get worse and to allow the deprecation to happen.
Added [T; N]::zip()
This is my first PR to rust so I hope I have done everything right, or at least close :)
---
This is PR adds the array method `[T; N]::zip()` which, in my mind, is a natural extension to #75212.
My implementation of `zip()` is mostly just a modified copy-paste of `map()`. Should I keep the comments? Also am I right in assuming there should be no way for the `for`-loop to panic, thus no need for the dropguard seen in the `map()`-function?
The doc comment is in a similar way a slightly modified copy paste of [`Iterator::zip()`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/std/iter/trait.Iterator.html#method.zip)

Fix memory leak in test "mem::uninit_write_slice_cloned_no_drop"
This fixes#80116. I replaced the `Rc` based method I was using with a type that panics when dropped.
Move {f32,f64}::clamp to core.
`clamp` was recently stabilized (tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44095). But although `Ord::clamp` was added in `core` (because `Ord` is in `core`), the versions for the `f32` and `f64` primitives were added in `std` (together with `floor`, `sin`, etc.), not in `core` (together with `min`, `max`, `from_bits`, etc.).
This change moves them to `core`, such that `clamp` on floats is available in `no_std` programs as well.
Integer types have a `count_ones` method that end up calling
`intrinsics::ctpop`.
On some architectures, that intrinsic is translated as a corresponding
CPU instruction know as "popcount" or "popcnt".
This PR makes it so that searching for those names in rustdoc shows those methods.

MaybeUninit::copy/clone_from_slice
This PR adds 2 new methods to MaybeUninit under the feature of `maybe_uninit_write_slice`: `copy_from_slice` and `clone_from_slice`.
These are useful for initializing uninitialized buffers (such as the one returned by `Vec::spare_capacity_mut` for example) with initialized data.
The methods behave similarly to the methods on slices, but the destination is uninitialized and they return the destination slice as an initialized slice.
std::iter: document iteration over `&T` and `&mut T`
A colleague of mine is new to Rust, and mentioned that it was “slightly
confusing” to figure out what `&mut` does in iterating over `&mut foo`:
```rust
for value in &mut self.my_vec {
// ...
}
```
My colleague had read the `std::iter` docs and not found the answer
there. There is a brief section at the top about “the three forms of
iteration”, which mentions `iter_mut`, but it doesn’t cover the purpose
of `&mut coll` for a collection `coll`. This patch adds an explanatory
section to the docs. I opted to create a new section so that it can
appear after the note that `impl<I: Iterator> IntoIterator for I`, and
it’s nice for the existing “three forms of iteration” to appear near the
top.
Test Plan:
Ran `./x.py doc library/core`, and the result looked good, including
links. Manually copy-pasted the two doctests into the playground and ran
them.

Add some core::cmp::Ordering helpers
...to allow easier equal-to-or-greater-than and less-than-or-equal-to
comparisons.
Prior to Rust 1.42 a greater-than-or-equal-to comparison might be written
either as a match block, or a traditional conditional check like this:
```rust
if cmp == Ordering::Equal || cmp == Ordering::Greater {
// Do something
}
```
Which requires two instances of `cmp`. Don't forget that while `cmp` here
is very short, it could be something much longer in real use cases.
From Rust 1.42 a nicer alternative is possible:
```rust
if matches!(cmp, Ordering::Equal | Ordering::Greater) {
// Do something
}
```
The commit adds another alternative which may be even better in some cases:
```rust
if cmp.is_equal_or_greater() {
// Do something
}
```
The earlier examples could be cleaner than they are if the variants of
`Ordering` are imported such that `Equal`, `Greater` and `Less` can be
referred to directly, but not everyone will want to do that.
The new solution can shorten lines, help avoid logic mistakes, and avoids
having to import `Ordering` / `Ordering::*`.
...to allow easier greater-than-or-equal-to and less-than-or-equal-to
comparisons, and variant checking without needing to import the enum,
similar to `Option::is_none()` / `Option::is_some()`, in situations where
you are dealing with an `Ordering` value. (Simple `PartialOrd` / `Ord`
based evaluation may not be suitable for all situations).

Constier maybe uninit
I was playing around trying to make `[T; N]::zip()` in #79451 be `const fn`. One of the things I bumped into was `MaybeUninit::assume_init`. Is there any reason for the intrinsic `assert_inhabited<T>()` and therefore `MaybeUninit::assume_init` not being `const`?
---
I have as best as I could tried to follow the instruction in [library/core/src/intrinsics.rs](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/library/core/src/intrinsics.rs#L11). I have no idea what I am doing but it seems to compile after some slight changes after the copy paste. Is this anywhere near how this should be done?
Also any ideas for name of the feature gate? I guess `const_maybe_assume_init` is quite misleading since I have added some more methods. Should I add test? If so what should be tested?

Privatize some of libcore unicode_internals
My understanding is that these API are perma unstable, so it doesn't
make sense to pollute docs & IDE completion[1] with them.

Use more std:: instead of core:: in docs for consistency
``@rustbot`` label T-doc
Some cleanup work to use `std::` instead of `core::` in docs as much as possible. This helps with terminology and consistency, especially for newcomers from other languages that have often heard of `std` to describe the standard library but not of `core`.
Edit: I also added more intra doc links when I saw the opportunity.
Avoid panic_bounds_check in fmt::write.
Writing any fmt::Arguments would trigger the inclusion of usize formatting and padding code in the resulting binary, because indexing used in fmt::write would generate code using panic_bounds_check, which prints the index and length.
These bounds checks are not necessary, as fmt::Arguments never contains any out-of-bounds indexes.
This change replaces them with unsafe get_unchecked, to reduce the amount of generated code, which is especially important for embedded targets.

Part of #68490.
Care has been taken to leave the old consts where appropriate, for testing backcompat regressions, module shadowing, etc. The intrinsics docs were accidentally referring to some methods on f64 as std::f64, which I changed due to being contrary with how we normally disambiguate the shadow module from the primitive. In one other place I changed std::u8 to std::ops since it was just testing path handling in macros.
For places which have legitimate uses of the old consts, deprecated attributes have been optimistically inserted. Although currently unnecessary, they exist to emphasize to any future deprecation effort the necessity of these specific symbols and prevent them from being accidentally removed.
