+- [A lot of methods for `[u8]`, `f32`, and `f64` previously only available in
+  std are now available in core.][49896]
+- [`memchr::repeat_byte` is now optimised to have a reduced code
+  size footprint.][50398] It will also be slightly faster on 64bit platforms.


I'm not sure this item worth putting into the release note. The original PR doesn't have the relnote label either. The perf isn't really impressive, just as the PR's title indicated.

Release notes have never been exclusively pull requests with the relnotes label. I always like including optimisations as it is something a lot of people are interested in. If you feel strongly about its inclusion I'm fine with removing it.

I do feel quite strongly because memchr::repeat_byte isn't a public API.

We could say public APIs like <str>::{contains, find, rfind, matches, split, replace} with a char pattern becomes a bit faster.

I completely forgot that memchr is not in the public API. 😅

Did you mean "the following syntax has" and to end with a colon there?

The function is marked rustc_const_unstable, so it's not stable yet.

Yeah, it looks like that relnotes label was out of date.

Should this read "the return value of the function"?

I prefer: ".. when the value, returned by the function, is not used." :)

By the way @Aaronepower, you should rebase this on top of master soonish, it would be bad being too late to backport this into beta.

Mark-Simulacrum · 2018-06-11T23:07:21Z

My current plan is to do the backport simultaneous with promotion to stable since this cannot fail if we run out of time

XAMPPRocky · 2018-06-12T15:42:28Z

@pietroalbini Yeah, I was waiting on #51507 to be merged before I rebased in case somehow that also caused a merged conflict. It's rebased now.
