- Change llvm_bundling to be required on s390x on 15.3 due to an llvm11
  codegen issue.

Version 1.54.0 (2021-07-29)
============================

Language
-----------------------

- [You can now use macros for values in built-in attribute macros.][83366]
  While a seemingly minor addition on its own, this enables a lot of
  powerful functionality when combined correctly. Most notably you can
  now include external documentation in your crate by writing the following.
  ```rust
  #![doc = include_str!("README.md")]
  ```
  You can also use this to include auto-generated modules:
  ```rust
  #[path = concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/generated.rs")]
  mod generated;
  ```

- [You can now cast between unsized slice types (and types which contain
  unsized slices) in `const fn`.][85078]
- [You can now use multiple generic lifetimes with `impl Trait` where the
   lifetimes don't explicitly outlive another.][84701] In code this means
   that you can now have `impl Trait<'a, 'b>` where as before you could
   only have `impl Trait<'a, 'b> where 'b: 'a`.

Compiler
-----------------------

- [Rustc will now search for custom JSON targets in
  `/lib/rustlib/<target-triple>/target.json` where `/` is the "sysroot"
  directory.][83800] You can find your sysroot directory by running
  `rustc --print sysroot`.
- [Added `wasm` as a `target_family` for WebAssembly platforms.][84072]
- [You can now use `#[target_feature]` on safe functions when targeting
  WebAssembly platforms.][84988]
- [Improved debugger output for enums on Windows MSVC platforms.][85292]
- [Added tier 3\* support for `bpfel-unknown-none`
   and `bpfeb-unknown-none`.][79608]

\* Refer to Rust's [platform support page][platform-support-doc] for more
   information on Rust's tiered platform support.

Libraries
-----------------------

- [`panic::panic_any` will now `#[track_caller]`.][85745]
- [Added `OutOfMemory` as a variant of `io::ErrorKind`.][84744]
- [ `proc_macro::Literal` now implements `FromStr`.][84717]
- [The implementations of vendor intrinsics in core::arch have been
   significantly refactored.][83278] The main user-visible changes are
   a 50% reduction in the size of libcore.rlib and stricter validation
   of constant operands passed to intrinsics. The latter is technically
   a breaking change, but allows Rust to more closely match the C vendor
   intrinsics API.

Stabilized APIs
---------------

- [`BTreeMap::into_keys`]
- [`BTreeMap::into_values`]
- [`HashMap::into_keys`]
- [`HashMap::into_values`]
- [`arch::wasm32`]
- [`VecDeque::binary_search`]
- [`VecDeque::binary_search_by`]
- [`VecDeque::binary_search_by_key`]
- [`VecDeque::partition_point`]

Cargo
-----

- [Added the `--prune <spec>` option to `cargo-tree` to remove a package from
  the dependency graph.][cargo/9520]
- [Added the `--depth` option to `cargo-tree` to print only to a certain depth
  in the tree ][cargo/9499]
- [Added the `no-proc-macro` value to `cargo-tree --edges` to hide procedural
  macro dependencies.][cargo/9488]
- [A new environment variable named `CARGO_TARGET_TMPDIR` is available.][cargo/9375]
  This variable points to a directory that integration tests and benches
  can use as a "scratchpad" for testing filesystem operations.
