Account for impossible bounds making seemingly unsatisfyable dyn-to-dyn casts Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/141806 When we have an impossible where clause like `dyn Trait<u8>: Sized`, this may make a dyn-to-dyn cast like `dyn Trait<()> -> dyn trait<u8>` to successfully type check as if it were a wide-to-thin ptr cast (discarding metadata):16ad385579/compiler/rustc_hir_typeck/src/cast.rs (L862-L865)
In borrowck, we are expecting that the only meaningful dyn-to-dyn cast to be a metadata-preserving wide-to-wide ptr cast, which requires that the principals of the dyn pointers are equal. Borrowck additionally assumes that these principals have already been proven equal *modulo regions*, and we thus ICE since `Trait<u8>` and `Trait<()>` do not unify:16ad385579/compiler/rustc_borrowck/src/type_check/mod.rs (L1481-L1524)
This PR fixes this ICE by checking whether the RHS of the cast is considered to be Sized in the environment of the MIR typeck, and if so then skipping over this dyn->dyn principal compatibility check. r? `@lcnr` perhaps?
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).
