+
+The Rust team is happy to announce a new version of Rust, 1.90.0. Rust is a programming language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
+
+If you have a previous version of Rust installed via `rustup`, you can get 1.90.0 with:
+
+```console
+$ rustup update stable
+```
+
+If you don't have it already, you can [get `rustup`](https://www.rust-lang.org/install.html) from the appropriate page on our website, and check out the [detailed release notes for 1.90.0](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/releases.html#version-1900-2025-09-18).
+
+If you'd like to help us out by testing future releases, you might consider updating locally to use the beta channel (`rustup default beta`) or the nightly channel (`rustup default nightly`). Please [report](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/new/choose) any bugs you might come across!
+
+## What's in 1.90.0 stable
+
+# LLD is now the default linker on `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
+
+The `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` target will now use the LLD linker for linking Rust crates by default. This should result in improved linking performance vs the default Linux linker (BFD), particularly for large binaries, binaries with a lot of debug information, and for incremental rebuilds.
+
+In the vast majority of cases, LLD should be backwards compatible with BFD, and you should not see any difference other than reduced compilation time. However, if you do run into any new linker issues, you can always opt out using the `-C linker-features=-lld` compiler flag. Either by adding it to the usual `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable, or to a project's [`.cargo/config.toml`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html) configuration file,
+like so:
+
+```toml
+[target.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]
+rustflags = ["-Clinker-features=-lld"]
+```
+
+If you encounter any issues with the LLD linker, please [let us know](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/new/choose). You can read more about the switch to LLD, some benchmark numbers and the opt out mechanism [here](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2025/09/01/rust-lld-on-1.90.0-stable/).
+
+### Cargo adds native support for workspace publishing
+
+`cargo publish --workspace` is now supported, automatically publishing all of
+the crates in a workspace in the right order (following any dependencies
+between them). This has long been possible with external tooling or manual
+ordering of individual publishes, but this brings the functionality into Cargo
+itself.
+
+### Demoting `x86_64-apple-darwin` to Tier 2 with host tools
+
+GitHub will soon [discontinue][gha-sunset] providing free macOS x86\_64 runners for public repositories. Apple has also announced their [plans][apple] for discontinuing support for the x86\_64 architecture.
+
+In accordance with these changes, as of Rust 1.90, we have [demoted the `x86_64-apple-darwin` target][rfc] from [Tier 1 with host tools](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html#tier-1-with-host-tools) to [Tier 2 with host tools](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html#tier-2-with-host-tools). This means that the target, including tools like `rustc` and `cargo`, will be guaranteed to build but is not guaranteed to pass our automated test suite.
+
+For users, this change will not immediately cause impact. Builds of both the standard library and the compiler will still be distributed by the Rust Project for use via `rustup` or alternative installation methods while the target remains at Tier 2. Over time, it's likely that reduced test coverage for this target will cause things to break or fall out of compatibility with no further announcements.
