Summary

If you go to https://doc.rust-lang.org/core/arch/aarch64/fn.vaesdq_u8.html that reports it was stabilised in 1.72. However, it is not mentioned in:

• https://blog.rust-lang.org/2023/08/24/Rust-1.72.0.html
• https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/releases/tag/1.72.0

Naturally I'm not expecting these to be altered post-hoc, but I feel there might be a process improvement here for ensuring stdarch changes are reflected in the release notes?

Hm. We've already implemented several improvements for release notes since 1.72, it's not clear that a missed relnote from 9 releases ago has much bearing on our process now. Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't.

Anyways, we actually do alter (some) of these post-hoc. Specifically: Please PR whatever release note changes you desire to RELEASES.md (it may or may not get propagated elsewhere)

I suspect stdarch stabilization continues to be a gap in our tooling. We don't typically monitor any external repos for stabilization, probably stdarch needs to be special :(
