@title[#:tag "unsafe"]{Unsafe Operations}

@defmodule[racket/unsafe/ops]

All functions and forms provided by @racketmodname[racket/base] and
@racketmodname[racket] check their arguments to ensure that the
arguments conform to contracts and other constraints. For example,
@racket[vector-ref] checks its arguments to ensure that the first
argument is a vector, that the second argument is an exact integer,
and that the second argument is between @racket[0] and one less than
the vector's length, inclusive.

Functions provided by @racketmodname[racket/unsafe/ops] are
@deftech{unsafe}. They have certain constraints, but the constraints
are not checked, which allows the system to generate and execute
faster code. If arguments violate an unsafe function's constraints,
the function's behavior and result is unpredictable, and the entire
system can crash or become corrupted.

All of the exported bindings of @racketmodname[racket/unsafe/ops] are
protected in the sense of @racket[protect-out], so access to unsafe
operations can be prevented by adjusting the code inspector (see
@secref["modprotect"]).

Unsafe versions of @racket[hash-iterate-key] and similar ops. These operations

Each unsafe @code{-first} and @code{-next} operation may not return a number
index but rather an internal representation of a view into the hash structure,
enabling faster iteration.

@defproc[(unsafe-impersonate-procedure [proc procedure?]
                                       [replacement-proc procedure?]
                                       [prop impersonator-property?]
                                       [prop-val any] ... ...)
         (and/c procedure? impersonator?)]{

 Like @racket[impersonate-procedure], but assumes that
 @racket[replacement-proc] calls @racket[proc] itself. When the result
 of @racket[unsafe-impersonate-procedure] is applied to arguments, the
 arguments are passed on to @racket[replacement-proc] directly,
 ignoring @racket[proc]. At the same time, @racket[impersonator-of?]
 reports @racket[#t] when given the result of
 @racket[unsafe-impersonate-procedure] and @racket[proc].

 If @racket[proc] is itself an impersonator that is derived from
 @racket[impersonate-procedure*] or @racket[chaperone-procedure*],
 beware that @racket[replacement-proc] will not be able to call it
 correctly. Specifically, the impersonator produced by
 @racket[unsafe-impersonate-procedure] will not get passed to a
 wrapper procedure that was supplied to
 @racket[impersonate-procedure*] or @racket[chaperone-procedure*] to
 generate @racket[proc].

 Finally, unlike @racket[impersonate-procedure],
 @racket[unsafe-impersonate-procedure] does not specially handle
 @racket[impersonator-prop:application-mark] as a @racket[prop].

 The unsafety of @racket[unsafe-impersonate-procedure] is limited to
 the above differences from @racket[impersonate-procedure]. The
 contracts on the arguments of @racket[unsafe-impersonate-procedure] are
 checked when the arguments are supplied.

 As an example, assuming that @racket[f] accepts a single argument and
 is not derived from @racket[impersonate-procedure*] or
 @racket[chaperone-procedure*], then
 @racketblock[(λ (f)
                (unsafe-impersonate-procedure
                 f
                 (λ (x)
                   (if (number? x)
                       (error 'no-numbers!)
                       (f x)))))]
 is equivalent to
 @racketblock[(λ (f)
                (impersonate-procedure
                 f
                 (λ (x)
                   (if (number? x)
                       (error 'no-numbers!)
                       x))))]
 
 Similarly, with the same assumptions about @racket[f], the following
 two procedures @racket[_wrap-f1] and
 @racket[_wrap-f2] are almost equivalent; they differ only
 in the error message produced when their arguments are
 functions that return multiple values (and that they update
 different global variables). The version using @racket[unsafe-impersonate-procedure]
 will signal an error in the @racket[let] expression about multiple
 return values, whereas the one using @racket[impersonate-procedure] signals
 an error from @racket[impersonate-procedure] about multiple return values.
