The compiler team's explanation
The note value is missing in a stability attribute.
Erroneous code example:
#![feature(staged_api)]
#![allow(internal_features)]
#![stable(since = "1.0.0", feature = "test")]
#[stable(since = "0.1.0", feature = "_deprecated_fn")]
#[deprecated(
since = "1.0.0"
)] // invalid
fn _deprecated_fn() {}
To fix this issue, you need to provide the note field. Example:
#![feature(staged_api)]
#![allow(internal_features)]
#![stable(since = "1.0.0", feature = "test")]
#[stable(since = "0.1.0", feature = "_deprecated_fn")]
#[deprecated(
since = "1.0.0",
note = "explanation for deprecation"
)] // ok!
fn _deprecated_fn() {}
See the How Rust is Made and “Nightly Rust” appendix of the Book and the Stability attributes section of the Rustc Dev Guide for more details.
