Just noticed this by coincidence, and I am trying to understand what happens here.
If I understand correctly, this code effectively performs a copy at a type like
u64
, and due to rust-lang/rust#69488, that "inflates" uninit which causes problems. However, if that is the case, it will cause problems even without-Zmiri-check-number-validity
, the problems are just slightly delayed: ifx
is uninit,x = 1
will fail in Miri even without that flag.Moreover, arguably, this is not just a Miri limitation, it actually accurately reflects the reference. I have ideas for fixing rust-lang/rust#69488; they will not fix the problem described here.
Finally, if we start emitting
noundef
flags for LLVM on our integer types (which the reference says we can), then the approach in this crate will be problematic even if we ignore Rust UB and consider only LLVM UB.So, I agree that
AtomicMaybeUninit
is the solution -- but until we have that, the problem isn't just a limitation in Miri, it is a limitation in Rust generally.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Thanks. I agree that the current readme is incorrect. (Filed #5 to fix readme)
