Description
Removes the
core_hint_black_box
feature fromsubtle
.Motivation and Context
We currently use the
core_hint_black_box
feature fromsubtle
, which uses a particular optimization barrier.However, the standard library documentation cautions against the use of
std::hint::black_box
for cryptographic use. This has ledsubtle
to remove it in an upcoming release, at which point the feature will do nothing.This PR takes the proactive step of removing the feature. There is still an optimization barrier in place, which will become the default after the feature is deprecated.
How Has This Been Tested?
Existing tests pass.
