This PR was rebased onto a different main commit. Here's a range-diff highlighting what actually changed.

Rebasing is a normal part of keeping PRs up to date, so no action is needed—this note is just to help reviewers.

library/core/src/intrinsics/mod.rs

+/// # Compile-time failures
+/// Determining whether `T` implements `U` requires trait resolution by the compiler.
+/// In some cases, that resolution can exceed the recursion limit,
+/// and compilation will fail *instead of* this function returning `None`.


The comment is duplicated

tests/ui/any/try_as_dyn_err1.rs

+    let fn_ptr: fn(&'static Box<i32>) = store;
+    let dt = try_as_dyn::<_, dyn Trait>(&fn_ptr);
+    if let Some(dt) = dt {
+        // unsound path


Panic here instead of doing UB so that we know this will reliably fail if broken.

Would an assertion work as well?

Yea, as long as the test doesn't cause UB if the thing it tests gets broken

oli-obk · 2025-12-16T07:56:43Z

tests/ui/any/try_as_dyn_err2.rs

+    let data = Box::new(Box::new(1i32));
+    let dt = try_as_dyn::<_, dyn Trait<fn(&'static Box<i32>)>>(&());
+    if let Some(dt) = dt {
+        // unsound path


Also panic here

Please give the commit a proper description

… and `try_as_dyn_mut` for fallible coercion from `&T` / `&mut T` to `&dyn Trait`.

Does this commit message work?
