Static DEREF_NULLPTR 

pub static DEREF_NULLPTR: &Lint

The deref_nullptr lint detects when a null pointer is dereferenced, which causes undefined behavior.

Example

use std::ptr;
unsafe {
    let x = &*ptr::null::<i32>();
    let x = ptr::addr_of!(*ptr::null::<i32>());
    let x = *(0 as *const i32);
}

Explanation

Dereferencing a null pointer causes undefined behavior if it is accessed (loaded from or stored to).
