The lang attribute was used in an invalid context. Erroneous code example: ```compile_fail,E0522 #![feature(lang_items)] #[lang = "cookie"] fn cookie() -> ! { // error: definition of an unknown language item: `cookie` loop {} } ``` The lang attribute is intended for marking special items that are built-in to Rust itself. This includes special traits (like `Copy` and `Sized`) that affect how the compiler behaves, as well as special functions that may be automatically invoked (such as the handler for out-of-bounds accesses when indexing a slice).
