## **Meeting Minutes**

73-
- xx
66+
- Previous minutes accepted with formatting fixes
67+
- Still need to decide on a day for the SCRC room at RustConf
68+
- Also need to arrange the online component
69+
- Having had two expert sessions now the group is ready to pick out 2-3 Clippy lints to work on
70+
- Reviewing the expression rules list: most are decidable, especially if type-oriented rather than value-oriented
71+
1. No \`as\` with integers is extremely similar to existing lints (no blanket lint but a widening lint exists) e.g. \`[clippy::cast\_lossless](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html?search=cast_loss#cast_lossless)\` \- inexact match but demonstrates checking of \`as\`
72+
2. \`as\`-pointer casts is also similar to existing lints e.g. \`[clippy::ptr\_as\_ptr](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html?search=underscore#as_pointer_underscore)\`, \`[clippy::as\_pointer\_underscore](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html?search=underscore#as_pointer_underscore)\` \- inexact match
73+
3. Integer to pointer has some support as \`[integer-to-ptr-transmutes](https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/lints/listing/warn-by-default.html?highlight=int%20to%20pointer#integer-to-ptr-transmutes)\`, still only partial coverage (transmute only)
74+
4. Shifting out of range and division by zero are not decidable, partial support in \`[arithmetic-overflow](https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/lints/listing/deny-by-default.html?highlight=shift#arithmetic-overflow)\` \- probably intent to split the shift rule into constant and dynamic versions for decidability as the more constrained case is still useful; the existing lint is focused on constant shift rhs values only; the general case of the rule needs to be changed to **undecidable**
75+
1. Related lint in \`[clippy::arithmetic\_side\_effects](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/?search=overflo#arithmetic_side_effects)\` which bans the native infix operators that have a risk of overflow behaviours
76+
5. Integer to pointer conversions has two rules in the decidable and undecidable flavours; the decidable rule is partially covered by the lints above
77+
- Is there a reason we are particularly interested in the underscore for this rule?
78+
1. Converting to a \`dyn\` type is checked whereas converting between pointer types is (implicit) unsafe and unchecked
79+
- The Appendices are live\! GH Issues still to be generated from these, which may be a lot
80+
- Liaison White Paper Solicitation (Alex)
81+
- Proposal paper on items of shared value to pool funding
82+
1. For example: having the Guidelines completed; having Clippy lints written to enforce as many of the Guidelines as possible; having people with the Community dedicating time to that work; getting safety qualification for Clippy or other tools (bindgen etc); getting the guidance/documentation available to pursue qualification independently
83+
2. All of these items should be hardware, OS, vendor generic, and aiming to be useful to all or any of the existing safety standards (auto, aero, etc)
84+
3. Enlist the various topics from Rust Week into a draft document and then circulate on Zulip
85+
- Identify users of guidelines
86+
- Challenges in enforcing guidelines
87+
- Vendor opportunities (tooling)
88+
- Perspective of an assessor that has assessed Rust code
89+
- Success stories of application of Clippy lints in safety-critical context
90+
- On MISRA C++
91+
- Pete is in contact with David and Andrew at MISRA w.r.t supply of MISRA materials; agreeable so long as usage/access is restricted in some fashion to members of the WG only (i.e. MISRA C and MISRA C++ will be made visible to individual members)
92+
- Same statement of use needs to go on all the meeting notes
93+
- Mira continues to make progress on working through the MISRA C++ rules
94+
1. The preprocessor remains an unstarted topic
95+
2. Questions for Doug on certain specific rules
