+==========================
+

+
+Language
+--------
+
+- [Lower pattern bindings in the order they're written and base drop order on primary bindings' order](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/143764)
+- [Stabilize declaration of c-style variadic functions for sysv64, win64, efiapi, and aapcs ABIs](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144066).
+  This brings these ABIs in line with the C ABI: variadic functions can be declared in extern blocks but not defined.
+- [Always require coroutine captures to be drop-live](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144156)
+- [Add lint against dangling pointers from local variables](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144322)
+- [Upgrade semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros from warn to deny](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144369)
+- [Stabilize loongarch32 inline asm](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144402)
+- [Add warn-by-default `integer_to_ptr_transmutes` lint against integer to pointer transmutes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144531)
+- [Stabilize `sse4a` and `tbm` target features](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144542)
+- [Add `target_env = "macabi"` and `target_env = "sim"` cfgs](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/139451) as replacements for the `target_abi` cfgs with the same values.
+
+<a id="1.91.0-Compiler"></a>

+- [Error on invalid `#[link]` attributes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/143193)
+- [Don't warn on never to any `as` casts as unreachable](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144804)

+
+Platform Support
+----------------
+

+  Note: llvm-tools and MSI installers are missing but will be added in the future releases.
+- [Promote `aarch64-pc-windows-msvc` to Tier 1](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/145682)

+- 🎉 Stabilize `build.build-dir`.
+  This config sets the directory where intermediate build artifacts are stored.
+  These artifacts are produced by Cargo and rustc during the build process.
+  End users usually won't need to interact with them, and the layout inside
+  `build-dir` is an implementation detail that may change without notice.

+-----
+- [In search results, rank doc aliases lower than non-alias items with the same name](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/145100)
+- [Raw pointers now work in type-based search like references](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/145731). This means you can now search for things like `*const u8 ->`, and additionally functions that take or return raw pointers will now display their signature properly in search results.

+<a id="1.91.0-Compatibility-Notes"></a>
+
+Compatibility Notes
+-------------------
+- [Apple: Always pass SDK root when linking with `cc`, and pass it via `SDKROOT` env var](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/131477). This should fix linking issues with `rustc` running inside Xcode. Libraries in `/usr/local/lib` may no longer be linked automatically, if you develop or use a crate that relies on this, you should explicitly set `cargo::rustc-link-search=/usr/local/lib` in a `build.rs` script.
+- [Relaxed bounds in associated type bound position like in `TraitRef<AssocTy: ?Sized>` are now correctly forbidden](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/135331)
+- [Add unstable `#[sanitize(xyz = "on|off")]` built-in attribute that shadows procedural macros with the same name](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/142681)
+- [Fix the drop checker being more permissive for bindings declared with `let`-`else`.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/143028)
+- [Error on invalid `#[should_panic]` attributes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/143808)
+- [Mark all deprecation lints in name resolution as deny-by-default and report-in-deps](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/143929)
+- The lint `semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros`, for `macro_rules!` macros in expression position that expand to end in a semicolon (`;`), is now deny-by-default. It was already warn-by-default, and a future compatibility warning (FCW) that warned even in dependencies. This lint will become a hard error in the future.
+- [Trait impl modifiers (e.g., `unsafe`, `!`, `default`) in inherent impls are no longer syntactically valid](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144386)
+- [Start reporting future breakage for `ILL_FORMED_ATTRIBUTE_INPUT` in dependencies](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144544)
+- [Be more strict when parsing attributes, erroring on many invalid attributes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144689)
+- [fix drop scope for `super let` bindings within `if let`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/145342)
+- [Invalid literal suffixes in tuple indexing, tuple struct indexing, and struct field name position are now correctly rejected](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/145463)
+- [Closures marked with the keyword `static` are now syntactically invalid](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/145604)
+- [Shebangs inside `--cfg` and `--check-cfg` arguments are no longer allowed](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/146211)
+- [Add future compatibility lint for temporary lifetimes shortening in Rust 1.92](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/147056)
+
+Cargo compatibility notes:
+
+- `cargo publish` no longer keeps `.crate` tarballs as final build artifacts
+  when `build.build-dir` is set. These tarballs were previously included due to
+  an oversight and are now treated as intermediate artifacts.
+  To get `.crate` tarballs as final artifacts, use `cargo package`.
+  In the next version, this change will apply regardless of `build.build-dir`.
+  [#15910](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/15910)
+- Adjust Cargo messages to match rustc diagnostic style.
+  This changes some of the terminal colors used by Cargo messages.
+  [#15928](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/15928)

+Internal 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.
+
+- [Update to LLVM 21](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/143684)
+- [std: thread: Return error if setting thread stack size fails](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144210)
