-export-dynamic was a temporary hack added in the early days of the Rust wasm32 target when Rust didn't have a way to specify wasm exports in the source code. This flag causes all global symbols, and some compiler-internal symbols, to be exported, which is often more than needed.

Rust now does have a way to specify exports in the source code: #[export_name = "..."].

So as the original comment suggests, -export-dynamic can now be removed, allowing users to have smaller binaries and better encapsulation in their wasm32-unknown-unknown modules.

It's possible that this change will require existing wasm32-unknown-unknown users will to add explicit #[export_name = "..."] directives to exporrt the symbols that their programs depend on having exported.

Pkgsrc changes: * Adjust patches (add & remove) and cargo checksums to new versions. * It's conceivable that the workaround for LLVM based NetBSD works even less in this version (ref. PKGSRC_HAVE_LIBCPP not having a corresponding patch anymore). Upstream changes: Version 1.68.2 (2023-03-28) =========================== - [Update the GitHub RSA host key bundled within Cargo] (rust-lang/cargo#11883). The key was [rotated by GitHub] (https://github.blog/2023-03-23-we-updated-our-rsa-ssh-host-key/) on 2023-03-24 after the old one leaked. - [Mark the old GitHub RSA host key as revoked] (rust-lang/cargo#11889). This will prevent Cargo from accepting the leaked key even when trusted by the system. - [Add support for `@revoked` and a better error message for `@cert-authority` in Cargo's SSH host key verification] (rust-lang/cargo#11635) Version 1.68.1 (2023-03-23) =========================== - [Fix miscompilation in produced Windows MSVC artifacts] (rust-lang/rust#109094) This was introduced by enabling ThinLTO for the distributed rustc which led to miscompilations in the resulting binary. Currently this is believed to be limited to the -Zdylib-lto flag used for rustc compilation, rather than a general bug in ThinLTO, so only rustc artifacts should be affected. - [Fix --enable-local-rust builds] (rust-lang/rust#109111) - [Treat `$prefix-clang` as `clang` in linker detection code] (rust-lang/rust#109156) - [Fix panic in compiler code] (rust-lang/rust#108162) Version 1.68.0 (2023-03-09) =========================== Language -------- - [Stabilize default_alloc_error_handler] (rust-lang/rust#102318) This allows usage of `alloc` on stable without requiring the definition of a handler for allocation failure. Defining custom handlers is still unstable. - [Stabilize `efiapi` calling convention.] (rust-lang/rust#105795) - [Remove implicit promotion for types with drop glue] (rust-lang/rust#105085) Compiler -------- - [Change `bindings_with_variant_name` to deny-by-default] (rust-lang/rust#104154) - [Allow .. to be parsed as let initializer] (rust-lang/rust#105701) - [Add `armv7-sony-vita-newlibeabihf` as a tier 3 target] (rust-lang/rust#105712) - [Always check alignment during compile-time const evaluation] (rust-lang/rust#104616) - [Disable "split dwarf inlining" by default.] (rust-lang/rust#106709) - [Add vendor to Fuchsia's target triple] (rust-lang/rust#106429) - [Enable sanitizers for s390x-linux] (rust-lang/rust#107127) Libraries --------- - [Loosen the bound on the Debug implementation of Weak.] (rust-lang/rust#90291) - [Make `std::task::Context` !Send and !Sync] (rust-lang/rust#95985) - [PhantomData layout guarantees] (rust-lang/rust#104081) - [Don't derive Debug for `OnceWith` & `RepeatWith`] (rust-lang/rust#104163) - [Implement DerefMut for PathBuf] (rust-lang/rust#105018) - [Add O(1) `Vec -> VecDeque` conversion guarantee] (rust-lang/rust#105128) - [Leak amplification for peek_mut() to ensure BinaryHeap's invariant is always met] (rust-lang/rust#105851) Stabilized APIs --------------- - [`{core,std}::pin::pin!`] (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/pin/macro.pin.html) - [`impl From<bool> for {f32,f64}`] (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/primitive.f32.html#impl-From%3Cbool%3E-for-f32) - [`std::path::MAIN_SEPARATOR_STR`] (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/path/constant.MAIN_SEPARATOR_STR.html) - [`impl DerefMut for PathBuf`] (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/path/struct.PathBuf.html#impl-DerefMut-for-PathBuf) These APIs are now stable in const contexts: - [`VecDeque::new`] (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/collections/struct.VecDeque.html#method.new) Cargo ----- - [Stabilize sparse registry support for crates.io] (rust-lang/cargo#11224) - [`cargo build --verbose` tells you more about why it recompiles.] (rust-lang/cargo#11407) - [Show progress of crates.io index update even `net.git-fetch-with-cli` option enabled] (rust-lang/cargo#11579) Misc ---- Compatibility Notes ------------------- - [Add `SEMICOLON_IN_EXPRESSIONS_FROM_MACROS` to future-incompat report] (rust-lang/rust#103418) - [Only specify `--target` by default for `-Zgcc-ld=lld` on wasm] (rust-lang/rust#101792) - [Bump `IMPLIED_BOUNDS_ENTAILMENT` to Deny + ReportNow] (rust-lang/rust#106465) - [`std::task::Context` no longer implements Send and Sync] (rust-lang/rust#95985) nternal Changes ---------------- These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they represent significant improvements to the performance or internals of rustc and related tools. - [Encode spans relative to the enclosing item] (rust-lang/rust#84762) - [Don't normalize in AstConv] (rust-lang/rust#101947) - [Find the right lower bound region in the scenario of partial order relations] (rust-lang/rust#104765) - [Fix impl block in const expr] (rust-lang/rust#104889) - [Check ADT fields for copy implementations considering regions] (rust-lang/rust#105102) - [rustdoc: simplify JS search routine by not messing with lev distance] (rust-lang/rust#105796) - [Enable ThinLTO for rustc on `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`] (rust-lang/rust#103591) - [Enable ThinLTO for rustc on `x86_64-apple-darwin`] (rust-lang/rust#103647) Version 1.67.0 (2023-01-26) ========================== Language -------- - [Make `Sized` predicates coinductive, allowing cycles.] (rust-lang/rust#100386) - [`#[must_use]` annotations on `async fn` also affect the `Future::Output`.] (rust-lang/rust#100633) - [Elaborate supertrait obligations when deducing closure signatures.] (rust-lang/rust#101834) - [Invalid literals are no longer an error under `cfg(FALSE)`.] (rust-lang/rust#102944) - [Unreserve braced enum variants in value namespace.] (rust-lang/rust#103578) Compiler -------- - [Enable varargs support for calling conventions other than `C` or `cdecl`.] (rust-lang/rust#97971) - [Add new MIR constant propagation based on dataflow analysis.] (rust-lang/rust#101168) - [Optimize field ordering by grouping m\*2^n-sized fields with equivalently aligned ones.] (rust-lang/rust#102750) - [Stabilize native library modifier `verbatim`.] (rust-lang/rust#104360) Added and removed targets: - [Add a tier 3 target for PowerPC on AIX] (rust-lang/rust#102293), `powerpc64-ibm-aix`. - [Add a tier 3 target for the Sony PlayStation 1] (rust-lang/rust#102689), `mipsel-sony-psx`. - [Add tier 3 `no_std` targets for the QNX Neutrino RTOS] (rust-lang/rust#102701), `aarch64-unknown-nto-qnx710` and `x86_64-pc-nto-qnx710`. - [Remove tier 3 `linuxkernel` targets] (rust-lang/rust#104015) (not used by the actual kernel).
