/// Any type that derives `Eq` automatically implements this trait, *regardless*

/// # Background
///
/// We want to require that types of consts used in pattern matches
/// have the attribute `#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]`.
///
/// In a more ideal world, we could check that requirement by just checking that
/// the given type implements both the `StructuralPartialEq` trait *and*
/// the `Eq` trait. However, you can have ADTs that *do* `derive(PartialEq, Eq)`,
/// and be a case that we want the compiler to accept, and yet the constant's
/// type fails to implement `Eq`.
///
/// Namely, a case like this:
///
/// ```rust
/// #[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]
/// struct Wrap<X>(X);
///
/// fn higher_order(_: &()) { }
///
/// const CFN: Wrap<fn(&())> = Wrap(higher_order);
///
/// fn main() {
/// match CFN {
/// CFN => {}
/// _ => {}
/// }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// (The problem in the above code is that `Wrap<fn(&())>` does not implement
/// `PartialEq`, nor `Eq`, because `for<'a> fn(&'a _)` does not implement those
/// traits.)
///
/// Therefore, we cannot rely on naive check for `StructuralPartialEq` and
/// mere `Eq`.
///
/// As a hack to work around this, we use two separate traits injected by each
/// of the two derives (`#[derive(PartialEq)]` and `#[derive(Eq)]`) and check
/// that both of them are present as part of structural-match checking.

///
/// ```
/// #[derive(Debug)]
/// struct Foo;
///
/// let x = Foo;
///
/// let y = x;
///
/// // `x` has moved into `y`, and so cannot be used
///
/// // println!("{:?}", x); // error: use of moved value
/// ```
///
/// However, if a type implements `Copy`, it instead has 'copy semantics':
///
/// ```
/// // We can derive a `Copy` implementation. `Clone` is also required, as it's
/// // a supertrait of `Copy`.
/// #[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone)]
/// struct Foo;
///
/// let x = Foo;
///
/// let y = x;
///
/// // `y` is a copy of `x`
///
/// println!("{:?}", x); // A-OK!
/// ```
///
/// It's important to note that in these two examples, the only difference is whether you
/// are allowed to access `x` after the assignment. Under the hood, both a copy and a move
/// can result in bits being copied in memory, although this is sometimes optimized away.
///
/// ## How can I implement `Copy`?
///
/// There are two ways to implement `Copy` on your type. The simplest is to use `derive`:
///
/// ```
/// #[derive(Copy, Clone)]
/// struct MyStruct;
/// ```
///
/// You can also implement `Copy` and `Clone` manually:
///
/// ```
/// struct MyStruct;
///
/// impl Copy for MyStruct { }
///
/// impl Clone for MyStruct {
/// fn clone(&self) -> MyStruct {
/// *self
/// }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// There is a small difference between the two: the `derive` strategy will also place a `Copy`
/// bound on type parameters, which isn't always desired.
///
/// ## What's the difference between `Copy` and `Clone`?
///
/// Copies happen implicitly, for example as part of an assignment `y = x`. The behavior of
/// `Copy` is not overloadable; it is always a simple bit-wise copy.
///
/// Cloning is an explicit action, `x.clone()`. The implementation of [`Clone`] can
/// provide any type-specific behavior necessary to duplicate values safely. For example,
/// the implementation of [`Clone`] for [`String`] needs to copy the pointed-to string
/// buffer in the heap. A simple bitwise copy of [`String`] values would merely copy the
/// pointer, leading to a double free down the line. For this reason, [`String`] is [`Clone`]
/// but not `Copy`.
///
/// [`Clone`] is a supertrait of `Copy`, so everything which is `Copy` must also implement
/// [`Clone`]. If a type is `Copy` then its [`Clone`] implementation only needs to return `*self`
/// (see the example above).
///
/// ## When can my type be `Copy`?
///
/// A type can implement `Copy` if all of its components implement `Copy`. For example, this
/// struct can be `Copy`:
///
/// ```
/// # #[allow(dead_code)]
/// #[derive(Copy, Clone)]
/// struct Point {
/// x: i32,
/// y: i32,
/// }
/// ```
///
/// A struct can be `Copy`, and [`i32`] is `Copy`, therefore `Point` is eligible to be `Copy`.
/// By contrast, consider
///
/// ```
/// # #![allow(dead_code)]
/// # struct Point;
/// struct PointList {
/// points: Vec<Point>,
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The struct `PointList` cannot implement `Copy`, because [`Vec<T>`] is not `Copy`. If we
/// attempt to derive a `Copy` implementation, we'll get an error:
///
/// ```text
/// the trait `Copy` may not be implemented for this type; field `points` does not implement `Copy`
/// ```
///
/// Shared references (`&T`) are also `Copy`, so a type can be `Copy`, even when it holds
/// shared references of types `T` that are *not* `Copy`. Consider the following struct,
/// which can implement `Copy`, because it only holds a *shared reference* to our non-`Copy`
/// type `PointList` from above:
///
/// ```
/// # #![allow(dead_code)]
/// # struct PointList;
/// #[derive(Copy, Clone)]
/// struct PointListWrapper<'a> {
/// point_list_ref: &'a PointList,
/// }
/// ```
///
/// ## When *can't* my type be `Copy`?
///
/// Some types can't be copied safely. For example, copying `&mut T` would create an aliased
/// mutable reference. Copying [`String`] would duplicate responsibility for managing the
/// [`String`]'s buffer, leading to a double free.
///
/// Generalizing the latter case, any type implementing [`Drop`] can't be `Copy`, because it's
/// managing some resource besides its own [`size_of::<T>`] bytes.
///
/// If you try to implement `Copy` on a struct or enum containing non-`Copy` data, you will get
/// the error [E0204].
///
/// [E0204]: ../../error-index.html#E0204
///
/// ## When *should* my type be `Copy`?
///
/// Generally speaking, if your type _can_ implement `Copy`, it should. Keep in mind, though,
/// that implementing `Copy` is part of the public API of your type. If the type might become
/// non-`Copy` in the future, it could be prudent to omit the `Copy` implementation now, to
/// avoid a breaking API change.
///
/// ## Additional implementors
///
/// In addition to the [implementors listed below][impls],
/// the following types also implement `Copy`:
///
/// * Function item types (i.e., the distinct types defined for each function)
/// * Function pointer types (e.g., `fn() -> i32`)
/// * Array types, for all sizes, if the item type also implements `Copy` (e.g., `[i32; 123456]`)
/// * Tuple types, if each component also implements `Copy` (e.g., `()`, `(i32, bool)`)
/// * Closure types, if they capture no value from the environment
/// or if all such captured values implement `Copy` themselves.
/// Note that variables captured by shared reference always implement `Copy`
/// (even if the referent doesn't),
/// while variables captured by mutable reference never implement `Copy`.

/// Types that are not `Sync` are those that have "interior
/// mutability" in a non-thread-safe form, such as [`Cell`][cell]
/// and [`RefCell`][refcell]. These types allow for mutation of
/// their contents even through an immutable, shared reference. For
/// example the `set` method on [`Cell<T>`][cell] takes `&self`, so it requires
/// only a shared reference [`&Cell<T>`][cell]. The method performs no
/// synchronization, thus [`Cell`][cell] cannot be `Sync`.
///
/// Another example of a non-`Sync` type is the reference-counting
/// pointer [`Rc`][rc]. Given any reference [`&Rc<T>`][rc], you can clone
/// a new [`Rc<T>`][rc], modifying the reference counts in a non-atomic way.
///
/// For cases when one does need thread-safe interior mutability,
/// Rust provides [atomic data types], as well as explicit locking via
/// [`sync::Mutex`][mutex] and [`sync::RwLock`][rwlock]. These types
/// ensure that any mutation cannot cause data races, hence the types
/// are `Sync`. Likewise, [`sync::Arc`][arc] provides a thread-safe
/// analogue of [`Rc`][rc].
///
/// Any types with interior mutability must also use the
/// [`cell::UnsafeCell`][unsafecell] wrapper around the value(s) which
/// can be mutated through a shared reference. Failing to doing this is
/// [undefined behavior][ub]. For example, [`transmute`][transmute]-ing
/// from `&T` to `&mut T` is invalid.
///

/// Zero-sized type used to mark things that "act like" they own a `T`.
///
/// Adding a `PhantomData<T>` field to your type tells the compiler that your
/// type acts as though it stores a value of type `T`, even though it doesn't
/// really. This information is used when computing certain safety properties.
///
/// For a more in-depth explanation of how to use `PhantomData<T>`, please see
/// [the Nomicon](../../nomicon/phantom-data.html).
///
/// # A ghastly note 👻👻👻
///
/// Though they both have scary names, `PhantomData` and 'phantom types' are
/// related, but not identical. A phantom type parameter is simply a type
/// parameter which is never used. In Rust, this often causes the compiler to
/// complain, and the solution is to add a "dummy" use by way of `PhantomData`.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ## Unused lifetime parameters
///
/// Perhaps the most common use case for `PhantomData` is a struct that has an
/// unused lifetime parameter, typically as part of some unsafe code. For
/// example, here is a struct `Slice` that has two pointers of type `*const T`,
/// presumably pointing into an array somewhere:
///
/// ```compile_fail,E0392
/// struct Slice<'a, T> {
/// start: *const T,
/// end: *const T,
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The intention is that the underlying data is only valid for the
/// lifetime `'a`, so `Slice` should not outlive `'a`. However, this
/// intent is not expressed in the code, since there are no uses of
/// the lifetime `'a` and hence it is not clear what data it applies
/// to. We can correct this by telling the compiler to act *as if* the
/// `Slice` struct contained a reference `&'a T`:
///
/// ```
/// use std::marker::PhantomData;
///
/// # #[allow(dead_code)]
/// struct Slice<'a, T: 'a> {
/// start: *const T,
/// end: *const T,
/// phantom: PhantomData<&'a T>,
/// }
/// ```
///
/// This also in turn requires the annotation `T: 'a`, indicating
/// that any references in `T` are valid over the lifetime `'a`.
///
/// When initializing a `Slice` you simply provide the value
/// `PhantomData` for the field `phantom`:
///
/// ```
/// # #![allow(dead_code)]
/// # use std::marker::PhantomData;
/// # struct Slice<'a, T: 'a> {
/// # start: *const T,
/// # end: *const T,
/// # phantom: PhantomData<&'a T>,
/// # }
/// fn borrow_vec<T>(vec: &Vec<T>) -> Slice<'_, T> {
/// let ptr = vec.as_ptr();
/// Slice {
/// start: ptr,
/// end: unsafe { ptr.add(vec.len()) },
/// phantom: PhantomData,
/// }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// ## Unused type parameters
///
/// It sometimes happens that you have unused type parameters which
/// indicate what type of data a struct is "tied" to, even though that
/// data is not actually found in the struct itself. Here is an
/// example where this arises with [FFI]. The foreign interface uses
/// handles of type `*mut ()` to refer to Rust values of different
/// types. We track the Rust type using a phantom type parameter on
/// the struct `ExternalResource` which wraps a handle.
///
/// [FFI]: ../../book/ch19-01-unsafe-rust.html#using-extern-functions-to-call-external-code
///
/// ```
/// # #![allow(dead_code)]
/// # trait ResType { }
/// # struct ParamType;
/// # mod foreign_lib {
/// # pub fn new(_: usize) -> *mut () { 42 as *mut () }
/// # pub fn do_stuff(_: *mut (), _: usize) {}
/// # }
/// # fn convert_params(_: ParamType) -> usize { 42 }
/// use std::marker::PhantomData;
/// use std::mem;
///
/// struct ExternalResource<R> {
/// resource_handle: *mut (),
/// resource_type: PhantomData<R>,
/// }
///
/// impl<R: ResType> ExternalResource<R> {
/// fn new() -> Self {
/// let size_of_res = mem::size_of::<R>();
/// Self {
/// resource_handle: foreign_lib::new(size_of_res),
/// resource_type: PhantomData,
/// }
/// }
///
/// fn do_stuff(&self, param: ParamType) {
/// let foreign_params = convert_params(param);
/// foreign_lib::do_stuff(self.resource_handle, foreign_params);
/// }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// ## Ownership and the drop check
///
/// Adding a field of type `PhantomData<T>` indicates that your
/// type owns data of type `T`. This in turn implies that when your
/// type is dropped, it may drop one or more instances of the type
/// `T`. This has bearing on the Rust compiler's [drop check]
/// analysis.
///
/// If your struct does not in fact *own* the data of type `T`, it is
/// better to use a reference type, like `PhantomData<&'a T>`
/// (ideally) or `PhantomData<*const T>` (if no lifetime applies), so
/// as not to indicate ownership.

/// system. Pointers `P<T>` wrapped in the [`Pin<P<T>>`][Pin] wrapper can't be
/// moved out of. See the [`pin` module] documentation for more information on
/// pinning.
///
/// Implementing the `Unpin` trait for `T` lifts the restrictions of pinning off
/// the type, which then allows moving `T` out of [`Pin<P<T>>`][Pin] with
/// functions such as [`mem::replace`].
///
/// `Unpin` has no consequence at all for non-pinned data. In particular,
/// [`mem::replace`] happily moves `!Unpin` data (it works for any `&mut T`, not
/// just when `T: Unpin`). However, you cannot use [`mem::replace`] on data
/// wrapped inside a [`Pin<P<T>>`][Pin] because you cannot get the `&mut T` you
/// need for that, and *that* is what makes this system work.
///
/// So this, for example, can only be done on types implementing `Unpin`:
///
/// ```rust
/// # #![allow(unused_must_use)]
/// use std::mem;
/// use std::pin::Pin;
///
/// let mut string = "this".to_string();
