Perhaps an

Are forward rlues for mutating functions safe? I haven't thought that through.

For reverse mode, #521 has thorny examples.

Yes, I believe so, since the primal and tangent are mutated simultaneously. We already have several
frule
s for mutating functions. See e.g. https://github.com/JuliaDiff/ChainRules.jl/blob/main/src/rulesets/LinearAlgebra/factorization.jl.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Ok, nice.
Then someone should do a big PR adding this to half the Base functions, right?

Must we define methods like
cumsum!([0,0,0], ZeroTangent())

Hm, not certain. @oxinabox didn't we decide at some point that it's up to the AD to handle cases where all (co)tangents are zero tangents?

I guess we can solve this when or if it comes up.

yeah we expect the AD to handle cases in reverse mode when inputs are all
ZeroTangent
.For forwards mode, i would need to think more, but i think even with mutation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nothing_comes_from_nothing
We can absolutely add fixes as things come up.
