Function no_std_compat::intrinsics::likely
source · pub const fn likely(b: bool) -> bool
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (
core_intrinsics
)Expand description
Hints to the compiler that branch condition is likely to be true. Returns the value passed to it.
Any use other than with if
statements will probably not have an effect.
Note that, unlike most intrinsics, this is safe to call;
it does not require an unsafe
block.
Therefore, implementations must not require the user to uphold
any safety invariants.
This intrinsic does not have a stable counterpart.
