Description
The rust Alloc
trait is getting updated, per rust-lang/rust#49668
In particular, the u8
return types for methods like alloc
are getting replaced by a new type *mut Opaque
. The code in dlmalloc/mod.rs doesn't compile against this new interface, with error
error[E0053]: method `dealloc` has an incompatible type for trait
--> libsip/src/dlmalloc/mod.rs:69:5
|
69 | unsafe fn dealloc(&mut self, ptr: ptr::NonNull<u8>, layout: Layout) {
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected extern type `std::alloc::Opaque`, found u8
|
= note: expected type `unsafe fn(&mut dlmalloc::Dlmalloc, std::ptr::NonNull<std::alloc::Opaque>, std::alloc::Layout)`
found type `unsafe fn(&mut dlmalloc::Dlmalloc, std::ptr::NonNull<u8>, std::alloc::Layout)
Context: The use of global_allocator
triggers rust to ask for the global_allocator
feature to be added to the crate in current nightlies, which cascades to changing the Alloc trait.
