crater experiment: de-const-stabilize UnsafeCell::get and various as_ptr methods #129399

RalfJung · 2024-08-22T06:19:49Z

These should not have been stabilized before const_refs_to_cell.
For now I mostly want to see whether any code out there actually uses these methods, since it shouldn't be possible to do anything useful with them...

Well, there's your crater :)

RalfJung · 2024-08-22T07:59:47Z

Yeah that's the portable-atomic crate itself also providing a const fn as_ptr(&self) -> *mut _ on an interior mutable type, similar to our own Atomic* types.

I hope there's no way to actually call that function because self has interior mutability. But we'll have a hard time testing this hypothesis because portable-atomic will fail to build. Is there some way we can substitute the crate sources of portable-atomic for this crater run...? (to make that function not be const fn)

tgross35 · 2024-08-22T08:03:47Z

I have done some ugly but functional use of [patch.crates-io] to use my own fork of compiler_builtins, e.g. #127561 (comment). Maybe that works here?

oli-obk · 2024-08-22T08:49:27Z

Alternatively you can use const_eval_select together with todo!() on the const side. Not the same thing, but a check whether it's actually used constly

RalfJung · 2024-08-22T09:32:40Z

Turns out there is a way to call this:

use std::cell::UnsafeCell;

const FOO2: () = {
    let mut x = 42;
    let y: &UnsafeCell<i32> = unsafe { std::mem::transmute(&x) };
    y.get();
};

Writing to this is obviously UB, though.^^

It'd be fun to figure out whether this is actually done anywhere, but I don't see a reasonably easy way to do that so 🤷
