Description
Code
Pretty much any Rust code that isn't an empty fn main() {}. For example, tests/ui/traits/map-types.rs:
use std::collections::HashMap;
trait Map<K, V>
{
fn get(&self, k: K) -> V { panic!() }
}
impl<K, V> Map<K, V> for HashMap<K, V> {}
// Test that trait types printed in error msgs include the type arguments.
fn main() {
let x: Box<HashMap<isize, isize>> = HashMap::new().into();
let x: Box<dyn Map<isize, isize>> = x;
let y: Box<dyn Map<usize, isize>> = Box::new(x);
//~^ ERROR `Box<dyn Map<isize, isize>>: Map<usize, isize>` is not satisfied
}

Error output
thread 'rustc' panicked at /usr/lib/rustlib/src/rust/library/core/src/panicking.rs:226:5:
unsafe precondition(s) violated: slice::from_raw_parts_mut requires the pointer to be aligned and non-null, and the total size of the slice not to exceed `isize::MAX`
This indicates a bug in the program. This Undefined Behavior check is optional, and cannot be relied on for safety.

error: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.
note: we would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/new?labels=C-bug%2C+I-ICE%2C+T-compiler&template=ice.md
note: please make sure that you have updated to the latest nightly
note: please attach the file at `/home/adrian/rust/rustc-ice-2025-06-10T23_26_31-12576.txt` to your bug report
note: compiler flags: -C target-feature=-crt-static
I encountered this when running the testsuite natively, weirdly enough my stage0 compiler (rustc 1.88.0-nightly (d6a325d93 2025-05-03), cross compiled from x86_64 and dynamically linked) never crashes, but the natively compiled stage1 does. I immediately thought this may be an allocator issue, since my musl libc is patched to use mimalloc, but nope, mallocng (aka unmodified, "stock" musl malloc) musl also crashes.
The crash manifests in every couple of invocations - it sometimes compiles just fine, other times it will trigger the unsafe precondition evaluation, other times it will exit with SIGSEGV and no error message.
I'll try some older versions to see if this was a recent regression.
Things I tested so far: beta branch - also occurs
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Reproduce the ICE using the example in tests/ui/traits/map-types.rs on the powerpc64-unknown-linux-musl target with the reported rustc version. Start with the backtrace entries in thin-vec's src/lib.rs and determine the compiler path that triggers the violation; done means the crash is fixed and a regression test covers it.
