…td legs Pins Rust to an exact nightly-2026-08-20 across every CI workflow (was floating on dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable). Nightly, not stable 1.98.0, because -Zmin-publish-age -- the cargo dependency-resolution soak feature .cargo/config.toml already configures -- is still nightly-only: verified directly against a real 1.98.0 stable binary, which silently ignores the config with a warning, and against the tracking issue (rust-lang/cargo#17009), still open. The stabilization PR (rust-lang/cargo#17335, open) targets Rust 1.100.0, due late September 2026 -- that's the concrete transition-to-stable target, matching socket-wheelhouse's own canonical rust-toolchain.toml. Drops the tvOS/visionOS/watchOS Tier-3 build legs entirely from release-packages.yml -- the nightly + rust-src install steps, the -Z build-std=core,std,panic_abort build branches, the tier3 matrix field, and the staging step's per-platform artifact-copy loop. -Z build-std remains unstable regardless of channel, so this removal is independent of which channel the pin above uses. The perry-ui-tvos/visionos/watchos crates stay in the workspace, and the compiler's own auto-rebuild (perry compile --target tvos-simulator, via a floating +nightly the end user must have installed -- see crates/perry/src/commands/compile/link/build_and_run.rs and crates/perry/src/commands/compile/optimized_libs/driver.rs) is untouched and still exercised by test.yml's tvOS-sim doc-tests; only release-packages.yml's build-and-ship leg for these three platforms is gone. Applies the newly-stabilized {f32,f64}::algebraic_{add,sub,mul,div,rem} methods in perry-runtime/src/perf_histogram.rs's stddev() (Node's perf_hooks Histogram) -- safe because it's an internal HdrHistogram- bucketed statistic, not a value any spec requires bit-exact evaluation order for. Recorded in external-tools.json's rust entry as a soakBypass-adopted version (published 2026-08-20, adopted 1 day later, removable 2026-08-27). The newer pinned nightly also surfaces two classes of pre-existing issues that were invisible under the previous floating stable, both fixed here: Atomic::fetch_update was renamed to try_update (8 call sites across gc/barrier, gc/poll_arm, gc/layout_tables, gc/roots/stack_maps, arena/block -- a pure rename, verified against the real try_update signature), and an expanded unused-import lint now catches a redundant `use super::super::*;` sitting alongside `use super::*;` in 33 files (6 in perry-codegen's node_core native table, 27 in perry-runtime's node_stream_constructors/object modules) -- deleted each line and confirmed the workspace still builds and 1051 targeted unit tests still pass. Verified against the real toolchains, not just docs: installed nightly-2026-08-20 and (earlier) stable 1.98.0 locally, confirmed -Zmin-publish-age activates on the former and is silently ignored on the latter, ran the exact CI `warnings` job commands (cargo check -p perry --bins, and cargo check --workspace --all-targets minus the host-incompatible UI crates) under the pinned nightly with RUSTFLAGS=-D warnings -- both clean -- and ran the perf_histogram test suite (including Node-oracle-comparison tests) -- all clean. Addresses CodeRabbit's review: fixed stale "stable" wording in release-packages.yml comments/step names (including two more Tier-3 mentions CodeRabbit's follow-up review caught in create-release and publish-assets) and scoped CLAUDE.md's tvOS/visionOS/watchOS claim to release-packages.yml specifically. Left two items as documented follow-ups rather than in-scope fixes: the gc-ratchet.yml baseline's recorded toolchain provenance (metadata only, not enforced by gc_ratchet.py, needs a real profiling run to regenerate) and test.yml's/driver.rs's floating +nightly for the Tier-3 auto-rebuild feature (must track whatever nightly the end user has installed, not this repo's CI-only pin).

Held — this does not compile on the current toolchain, and the reason is worth fixing rather than working around. The failure, stacking this on current All four are Why it fails here but presumably passed for you. The description says these methods are "stable since 1.98.0", but this machine is on
That is a real coupling: the code change depends on the toolchain pin, but the pin does not reach the places the code has to build. The cheap fix is to add a Two things I'd want a maintainer's decision on before this lands, independent of the compile failure:
Everything else checks out: it stacks cleanly on I also have a note for whoever picks this up: it bumps the workspace version, which the maintainer normally applies at merge time. |

…kflows (#8561) * fix(rust): pin the toolchain for local builds, not just CI workflows #8550 pinned nightly-2026-08-20 through dtolnay/rust-toolchain's toolchain: input in 23 workflows, and perry-runtime now uses float_algebraic. Those inputs do not reach a plain cargo invocation, so building main outside CI fails with E0658 while CI is green. * chore: key the changelog fragment to this PR (#8561) --------- Co-authored-by: Ralph Küpper <ralph@skelpo.com>
My float_algebraic 'fix' was based on a local E0658 that does not occur in CI: main's gap-suite compiles and passes, so algebraic_* is available on the nightly #8550 pinned. My local stable 1.97.1 simply cannot build it. Replacing those calls with plain arithmetic therefore fixed nothing and changed stddev numerics, which broke gap-suite (2) -- green on main, red on this PR. What remains is the API docs regeneration, which is independently verified: check is red on main and on this PR's first push, and green after the regenerated artifacts.
