Add `Steal::risky_hack_borrow_mut` I'm working on a rustc driver (Creusot) which needs to modify the MIR read by two queries, `mir_borrowck` and `check_liveness`, in different ways for each query. Both of these queries use `mir_promoted` to read the MIR, which is immutable (until it is stolen). This adds an escape hatch so rustc drivers can mutate MIR for specific queries. And this removes `get_mut` which is unused and also unusable now that there's no way to get a `&mut Steal` from the rustc API. Another approach may be to override the queries to modify the MIR after having read it from `mir_promoted`. However the implementation of queries is largely hidden, so I can't just copy their code to then modify it. A solution would be to parameterize the queries with callbacks which get instantiated with `mir_promoted` by default, but that seems more involved and ad hoc. That's why I'm proposing this smaller change instead.
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).
