The language team stabilized new target features and fixed critical borrowck regressions while rust-analyzer cuts LSP overhead with gen-lsp-types v0.10.0.

Rust 1.97.0 landed overnight with stabilized target features (div32, lam-bh, lamcas, ld-seq-sa, scq) and new linting for unused pub items in binaries [1]. The release includes a critical fix for polonius legacy mode that was panicking during loan invalidation [3], and borrowck improvements that clean up internal constraint handling [4]. On the const generics front, min_generic_const_args now falls back to anonymous consts when direct representation fails, pushing forward on the Project Const Generics roadmap [5]. Meanwhile, rust-analyzer bumped gen-lsp-types to v0.10.0 [2], delivering measurable ergonomic wins for `LspRequestMethod` and reduced allocations across the board. The team also cleaned internal query machinery by removing unused `cycle_{fn,initial}` support from `#[query_group]` [7], and a performance pass on the dependency graph reader deduplication should improve incremental rebuild times for larger tasks [6].

Action items

→ Upgrade to Rust 1.97.0 if you use polonius legacy mode or hit borrowck regressions rust-lang/rust [immediate]
→ Update rust-analyzer to pick up gen-lsp-types v0.10.0 for better LSP performance rust-lang/rust-analyzer [plan]
→ Review new dead_code_pub_in_binary lint for unused exports in your binaries rust-lang/rust [monitor]
