 pub fn from_utf16le(v: &[u8]) -> Result<String, FromUtf16Error> {
-if v.len() % 2 != 0 {
+let (chunks, []) = v.as_chunks::<2>() else {
 return Err(FromUtf16Error(()));
- }
+ };
 match (cfg!(target_endian = "little"), unsafe { v.align_to::<u16>() }) {
 (true, ([], v, [])) => Self::from_utf16(v),
- _ => char::decode_utf16(v.array_chunks::<2>().copied().map(u16::from_le_bytes))
+ _ => char::decode_utf16(chunks.iter().copied().map(u16::from_le_bytes))
 .collect::<Result<_, _>>()
 .map_err(|_| FromUtf16Error(())),
 }


Hooray for let-else and slice patterns meaning this can write "the chunks with no tail", rather than needing to have an explicit % 2.

Amanieu · 2025-07-01T17:26:52Z

From #74985 (comment):

We discussed this again the @rust-lang/libs-api meeting and concluded that there is little use for an array_chunks iterator when we already have as_chunks. As such we would like to remove this unstable API.

@rfcbot merge

rfcbot · 2025-07-01T17:26:54Z

Team member @Amanieu has proposed to merge this. The next step is review by the rest of the tagged team members:

No concerns currently listed.

Once a majority of reviewers approve (and at most 2 approvals are outstanding), this will enter its final comment period. If you spot a major issue that hasn't been raised at any point in this process, please speak up!

See this document for info about what commands tagged team members can give me.

Let me know when CI is passing an I can take a look.

Achievement Acquired: first CI failure from a .patch file.

scottmcm · 2025-07-02T04:49:24Z

@jhpratt This is passing CI now, if you want to take a look, but no rush since it can't land in less than 10 days anyway.

LGTM! r=me if/when FCP is complete.

How to interpret the job duration changes?

Job durations can vary a lot, based on the actual runner instance
that executed the job, system noise, invalidated caches, etc. The table above is provided
mostly for t-infra members, for simpler debugging of potential CI slow-downs.
