From 0a059d9e971863b02259cb23e6fa82043db8b304 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Tardieu Date: Thu, 15 May 2025 01:20:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] `needless_borrow`: do not contradict `dangerous_implicit_autorefs` Rust 1.88 introduces the `dangerous_implicit_autorefs` lint which warns about using implicit autorefs on a place obtained from a raw pointer, as this may create aliasing issues. Prevent `clippy::needless_borrow` from triggering in this case, by disabling the lint when taking a reference on a raw pointer dereference. There might be a better way for doing this in the long run with a finer way of distinguish the problematic cases, but this will prevent Clippy from contradicting the compiler in the meantime. --- clippy_lints/src/dereference.rs | 9 +++++++++ tests/ui/needless_borrow.fixed | 15 ++++++++++++--- tests/ui/needless_borrow.rs | 15 ++++++++++++--- tests/ui/needless_borrow.stderr | 32 ++++++++++++++++---------------- 4 files changed, 49 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) diff --git a/clippy_lints/src/dereference.rs b/clippy_lints/src/dereference.rs index 5edb5c235703..a2cedba98327 100644 --- a/clippy_lints/src/dereference.rs +++ b/clippy_lints/src/dereference.rs @@ -997,6 +997,15 @@ fn report<'tcx>( );
