![]() Stop using LLVM struct types for byval/sret For `byval` and `sret`, the type has no semantic meaning, only the size matters\*†. Using `[N x i8]` is a more direct way to specify that we want `N` bytes, and avoids relying on LLVM's struct layout. \*: The alignment would matter, if we didn't explicitly specify it. From what I can tell, we always specified the alignment for `sret`; for `byval`, we didn't until #112157. †: For `byval`, the hidden copy may be impacted by padding in the LLVM struct type, i.e. padding bytes may not be copied. (I'm not sure if this is done today, but I think it would be legal.) But we manually pad our LLVM struct types specifically to avoid there ever being LLVM-visible padding, so that shouldn't be an issue. Split out from #121577. r? `@nikic` |

The Rust Programming Language
This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Note: this README is for users rather than contributors. If you wish to contribute to the compiler, you should read CONTRIBUTING.md instead.
