As the comment says, this lint "is mostly historical, and not particularly useful". It's not worth keeping it around.

rust-analyzer is developed in its own repository. If possible, consider making this change to rust-lang/rust-analyzer instead.

Removing this old, useless lint that tells you if you are using Box. (Yes, really. Perhaps it made more sense in pre-1.0 days.)

How do I start an FCP? Or does it have to be started by a compiler team member? I'm only a contributor.

-   [`char::from_u32_unchecked`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/core/primitive.char.html#method.from_u32\_unchecked) (method)

-   [Disallow `package.license-file` and `package.readme` pointing to non-existent files during packaging.](rust-lang/cargo#13921)
-   [Disallow passing `--release`/`--debug` flag along with the `--profile` flag.](rust-lang/cargo#13971)
-   [Remove `lib.plugin` key support in `Cargo.toml`. Rust plugin support has been deprecated for four years and was removed in 1.75.0.](rust-lang/cargo#13902)

<a id="1.81.0-Compatibility-Notes"></a>

## Compatibility Notes

-   Usage of the `wasm32-wasi` target will now issue a compiler warning and request users switch to the `wasm32-wasip1` target instead. Both targets are the same, `wasm32-wasi` is only being renamed, and this [change to the WASI target](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/updates-to-rusts-wasi-targets.html) is being done to enable removing `wasm32-wasi` in January 2025.

-   We have renamed `std::panic::PanicInfo` to `std::panic::PanicHookInfo`. The old name will continue to work as an alias, but will result in a deprecation warning starting in Rust 1.82.0.

    `core::panic::PanicInfo` will remain unchanged, however, as this is now a *different type*.

    The reason is that these types have different roles: `std::panic::PanicHookInfo` is the argument to the [panic hook](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/panic/fn.set_hook.html) in std context (where panics can have an arbitrary payload), while `core::panic::PanicInfo` is the argument to the [`#[panic_handler]`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/panic-handler.html) in no_std context (where panics always carry a formatted *message*). Separating these types allows us to add more useful methods to these types, such as `std::panic::PanicHookInfo::payload_as_str()` and `core::panic::PanicInfo::message()`.

-   The new sort implementations may panic if a type's implementation of [`Ord`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.Ord.html) (or the given comparison function) does not implement a [total order](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_order) as the trait requires. `Ord`'s supertraits (`PartialOrd`, `Eq`, and `PartialEq`) must also be consistent. The previous implementations would not "notice" any problem, but the new implementations have a good chance of detecting inconsistencies, throwing a panic rather than returning knowingly unsorted data.

-   [In very rare cases, a change in the internal evaluation order of the trait
    solver may result in new fatal overflow errors.](rust-lang/rust#126128)

<a id="1.81.0-Internal-Changes"></a>

## Internal Changes

These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they represent
significant improvements to the performance or internals of rustc and related
tools.

-   [Add a Rust-for Linux `auto` CI job to check kernel builds.](rust-lang/rust#125209)

  to non-existent files during packaging.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#13921)
- [Disallow passing `--release`/`--debug` flag along with the
  `--profile` flag.] (rust-lang/cargo#13971)
- [Remove `lib.plugin` key support in `Cargo.toml`. Rust plugin
  support has been deprecated for four years and was removed in
  1.75.0.] (rust-lang/cargo#13902)

Compatibility Notes
-------------------

* Usage of the `wasm32-wasi` target will now issue a compiler
  warning and request users switch to the `wasm32-wasip1` target
  instead. Both targets are the same, `wasm32-wasi` is only being
  renamed, and this [change to the WASI target]
  (https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/updates-to-rusts-wasi-targets.html)
  is being done to enable removing `wasm32-wasi` in January 2025.

* We have renamed `std::panic::PanicInfo` to `std::panic::PanicHookInfo`.
  The old name will continue to work as an alias, but will result in
  a deprecation warning starting in Rust 1.82.0.

  `core::panic::PanicInfo` will remain unchanged, however, as this
  is now a *different type*.

  The reason is that these types have different roles:
  `std::panic::PanicHookInfo` is the argument to the [panic
  hook](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/panic/fn.set_hook.html)
  in std context (where panics can have an arbitrary payload),
  while `core::panic::PanicInfo` is the argument to the
  [`#[panic_handler]`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/panic-handler.html)
  in no_std context (where panics always carry a formatted *message*).
  Separating these types allows us to add more useful methods to
  these types, such as `std::panic::PanicHookInfo::payload_as_str()`
  and `core::panic::PanicInfo::message()`.

* The new sort implementations may panic if a type's implementation
  of [`Ord`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.Ord.html) (or
  the given comparison function) does not implement a [total
  order](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_order) as the trait
  requires. `Ord`'s supertraits (`PartialOrd`, `Eq`, and `PartialEq`)
  must also be consistent. The previous implementations would not
  "notice" any problem, but the new implementations have a good chance
  of detecting inconsistencies, throwing a panic rather than returning
  knowingly unsorted data.
* [In very rare cases, a change in the internal evaluation order of the trait
  solver may result in new fatal overflow errors.]

Internal Changes

These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they
represent significant improvements to the performance or internals
of rustc and related tools.
