Evaluating constants in MIR optimizations introduces const eval errors  #122828

Open

Description

#![feature(inline_const)]
#![crate_type = "lib"]
pub fn f<T>() -> usize {
    g::<()>()
}
pub fn g<T>() -> usize {
    const { 0 / std::mem::size_of::<T>() }
}

This compiles fine in debug builds, but fails in release builds:

$ rustc b.rs
$ rustc b.rs -O
error[E0080]: evaluation of `g::<()>::{constant#0}` failed
 --> b.rs:7:13
  |
7 |     const { 0 / std::mem::size_of::<T>() }
  |             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ attempt to divide `0_usize` by zero

error: aborting due to 1 previous error

For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0080`.

Based on #107503 (comment) cc @RalfJung.

But also see this example based on type sizes.
