Document overrides of `clone_from()` in core/std #122201

coolreader18 · 2024-03-08T18:36:22Z

Specifically, when an override doesn't just forward to an inner type, document the behavior and that it's preferred over simply assigning a clone of source. Also, change instances where the second parameter is "other" to "source".

I reused some of the wording over and over for similar impls, but I'm not sure that the wording is actually good. Would appreciate feedback about that.

Also, now some of these seem to provide pretty specific guarantees about behavior (e.g. will reuse the exact same allocation iff the len is the same), but I was basing it off of the docs for Box::clone_from - I'm not sure if providing those strong guarantees is actually good or not.

It doesn't do this currently. All existing elements are dropped.

@rust-lang/libs-api:

Please take a skim through the added documentation and decide whether these are all commitments we can make.

Some of them are in the form of "This method is preferred over simply assigning source.clone() to self, as it avoids reallocation if possible", and it's debatable to what extent that constitutes a commitment. It sounds like something that can be changed saying "yeah we decided it wasn't possible after all".

Other ones are stronger commitments.

Deliberate new commitments:

Box::<[T], A>::clone_from (equivalent to the already existing commitment on Box::<T, A>::clone_from for T: Sized)
LinkedList::<T, A>::clone_from
Vec::<T, A>::clone_from
Waker::clone_from (Override Waker::clone_from to avoid cloning Wakers unnecessarily #96979)

"Commitments":

BinaryHeap::<T, A>::clone_from
VecDeque::<T, A>::clone_from
String::clone_from
HashSet::<T, S>::clone_from
OsString::clone_from
PathBuf::clone_from

Team member @dtolnay has proposed to merge this. The next step is review by the rest of the tagged team members:

No concerns currently listed.

Once a majority of reviewers approve (and at most 2 approvals are outstanding), this will enter its final comment period. If you spot a major issue that hasn't been raised at any point in this process, please speak up!

See this document for info about what commands tagged team members can give me.

It seems to me "avoids allocations if possible" could also be interpreted to sound like a much more affirmative "we will do this if there is any possible interpretation of our data structure that will avoid allocations here". That may prove to be a bit of a peculiar thing to promise, especially when there's nothing stopping you from using clone_from for cloning a larger data structure "into" a smaller one, which will force new allocations.

It is possible that we may wish to say "reduces allocations" instead, as reducing the number of allocations by some N can validly be 0.

I am most concerned about this in the case of the types like BinaryHeap, LinkedList, and the Map/Set types, which have a somewhat more ambiguous internal representation, and in some cases are direly under-loved.

I'm unsure of how the FCP interacts with reviews - should I address the nits/review comments while the FCP is active?

rfcbot · 2024-04-11T16:58:44Z

The final comment period, with a disposition to merge, as per the review above, is now complete.

As the automated representative of the governance process, I would like to thank the author for their work and everyone else who contributed.

This will be merged soon.

Please address the review comments at your leisure. It doesn't make a difference whether that happens while the FCP is active or afterward, unless some team member's approval is contingent on seeing the resolution of some concern (usually with "@rfcbot concern").

dtolnay

Thank you! This looks good to me.

I think this wording is all right, but I would be interested to evaluate a followup PR if someone wants to address #122201 (review). The reason I think the current wording in the PR is all right is I don't see "avoids reallocation if possible" being interpreted as "does not allocate if there is any possible interpretation of our data structure that could implement this operation without allocating". It instead just means "avoids those allocations which are possible to avoid per this manifestation of the data structure". The more interesting guarantees being committed to are the ones listed in #122201 (comment).

Rollup merge of rust-lang#122201 - coolreader18:doc-clone_from, r=dtolnay Document overrides of `clone_from()` in core/std As mentioned in rust-lang#96979 (comment) Specifically, when an override doesn't just forward to an inner type, document the behavior and that it's preferred over simply assigning a clone of source. Also, change instances where the second parameter is "other" to "source". I reused some of the wording over and over for similar impls, but I'm not sure that the wording is actually *good*. Would appreciate feedback about that. Also, now some of these seem to provide pretty specific guarantees about behavior (e.g. will reuse the exact same allocation iff the len is the same), but I was basing it off of the docs for [`Box::clone_from`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.75.0/std/boxed/struct.Box.html#method.clone_from-1) - I'm not sure if providing those strong guarantees is actually good or not.

This is based on the pkgsrc-wip rust180 package, retaining the main pkgsrc changes as best as I could. Pkgsrc changes: * Adapt checksums and patches. * Make this work again on big-endian aarch64 (at least on NetBSD). * Make the choice of GCC = 12 work for sparc64 by testing options after options.mk is included (which is required...). Makes this work on NetBSD/sparc64 10.0 again.

Document overrides of clone_from()

c0e913f
