Add some aliasing warnings to docstrings for mutating functions in Base #50824

I would even change should to must. |
Looked for it in the code base but the search didn't yield anything. Perhaps it doesn't exist 🤯 |

Is "alias with" a self-explanatory phrase? Not a native speaker, but I would understand this better if it said "share memory with" or something similar. |
I took the formulation from |

Replacement done, I think this is ready for review |

I agree with adding warnings to the docstrings. However, I'm not sure what to do with julia> x = [1, 2];
julia> map!(x -> 2x, x, x); x

I just took a cue from #50814 but it's easy to remove. Should I leave |

Good catch. julia> x = ones(Int,4); @views map!(+, x[begin+1:end], x[begin+1:end], x[begin:end-1]); x

Yeah, that might be the safest thing to do for now. |

The "...intended to operate without making any allocations" clause seems redundant and buries the key point. How about sticking to |

OK just went through the whole list, see the first message. If anyone objects to my selection of "aliasing-vulnerable" mutating functions, let them speak now or forever hold their peace |

Can this be backported to 1.10? If 1.10 becomes an LTS release, it might be nice to have these changes in the docs. |

Functions like
sum!(B, A)have undefined behavior whenAandBshare memory. We might fix that in the long run, but in the short run, doc warnings are better than nothing.Related issues:
