Like other pragmas (C<use strict>, for example), features have a lexical

-C<no feature> with no features specified will turn off all features.
+C<no feature> with no features specified will reset to the default group. To

=head1 AVAILABLE FEATURES
=head2 The 'switch' feature
+B<WARNING>: Because the L<smartmatch operator|perlop/"Smartmatch Operator"> is
+experimental, Perl will warn when you use this feature, unless you have
+explicitly disabled the warning:
+
+ no warnings "experimental::smartmatch";
+
C<use feature 'switch'> tells the compiler to enable the Perl 6
given/when construct.
-See L<perlsyn/"Switch statements"> for details.
+See L<perlsyn/"Switch Statements"> for details.
This feature is available starting with Perl 5.10.
=head2 The 'unicode_strings' feature
-C<use feature 'unicode_strings'> tells the compiler to use Unicode semantics
+C<use feature 'unicode_strings'> tells the compiler to use Unicode rules
in all string operations executed within its scope (unless they are also
within the scope of either C<use locale> or C<use bytes>). The same applies
to all regular expressions compiled within the scope, even if executed outside

+it. It does not change the internal representation of strings, but only how
+they are interpreted.
C<no feature 'unicode_strings'> tells the compiler to use the traditional
-Perl semantics wherein the native character set semantics is used unless it is
+Perl rules wherein the native character set rules is used unless it is
clear to Perl that Unicode is desired. This can lead to some surprises
when the behavior suddenly changes. (See
L<perlunicode/The "Unicode Bug"> for details.) For this reason, if you are
potentially using Unicode in your program, the
C<use feature 'unicode_strings'> subpragma is B<strongly> recommended.
-This feature is available starting with Perl 5.12, but was not fully
-implemented until Perl 5.14.
+This feature is available starting with Perl 5.12; was almost fully
+implemented in Perl 5.14; and extended in Perl 5.16 to cover C<quotemeta>.
=head2 The 'unicode_eval' and 'evalbytes' features
previous versions, it was simply on all the time, and this pragma knew
nothing about it.
+=head2 The 'fc' feature
+
+C<use feature 'fc'> tells the compiler to enable the C<fc> function,
+which implements Unicode casefolding.
+
+See L<perlfunc/fc> for details.
+
+This feature is available from Perl 5.16 onwards.
+
+=head2 The 'lexical_subs' feature
+
+B<WARNING>: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may
+change in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will
+warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the
+warning:
+
+ no warnings "experimental::lexical_subs";
+
+This enables declaration of subroutines via C<my sub foo>, C<state sub foo>
+and C<our sub foo> syntax. See L<perlsub/Lexical Subroutines> for details.
+
+This feature is available from Perl 5.18 onwards.
+
+=head2 The 'postderef' and 'postderef_qq' features
+
+The 'postderef_qq' feature extends the applicability of L<postfix
+dereference syntax|perlref/Postfix Dereference Syntax> so that postfix array
+and scalar dereference are available in double-quotish interpolations. For
+example, it makes the following two statements equivalent:
+
+ my $s = "[@{ $h->{a} }]";
+ my $s = "[$h->{a}->@*]";
+
+This feature is available from Perl 5.20 onwards. In Perl 5.20 and 5.22, it
+was classed as experimental, and Perl emitted a warning for its
+usage, except when explicitly disabled:
+
+ no warnings "experimental::postderef";
+
+As of Perl 5.24, use of this feature no longer triggers a warning, though
+the C<experimental::postderef> warning category still exists (for
+compatibility with code that disables it).
+
+The 'postderef' feature was used in Perl 5.20 and Perl 5.22 to enable
+postfix dereference syntax outside double-quotish interpolations. In those
+versions, using it triggered the C<experimental::postderef> warning in the
+same way as the 'postderef_qq' feature did. As of Perl 5.24, this syntax is
+not only no longer experimental, but it is enabled for all Perl code,
+regardless of what feature declarations are in scope.
+
+=head2 The 'signatures' feature
+
+B<WARNING>: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may
+change in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will
+warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the
+warning:
+
+ no warnings "experimental::signatures";
+
+This enables unpacking of subroutine arguments into lexical variables
+by syntax such as
+
+ sub foo ($left, $right) {
+ return $left + $right;
+ }
+
+See L<perlsub/Signatures> for details.
+
+This feature is available from Perl 5.20 onwards.
+
+=head2 The 'refaliasing' feature
+
+B<WARNING>: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may
+change in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will
+warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the
+warning:
+
+ no warnings "experimental::refaliasing";
+
+This enables aliasing via assignment to references:
+
+ \$a = \$b; # $a and $b now point to the same scalar
+ \@a = \@b; # to the same array
+ \%a = \%b;
+ \&a = \&b;
+ foreach \%hash (@array_of_hash_refs) {
+ ...
+ }
+
+See L<perlref/Assigning to References> for details.
+
+This feature is available from Perl 5.22 onwards.
+
+=head2 The 'bitwise' feature
+
+B<WARNING>: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may
+change in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will
+warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the
+warning:
+
+ no warnings "experimental::bitwise";
+
+This makes the four standard bitwise operators (C<& | ^ ~>) treat their
+operands consistently as numbers, and introduces four new dotted operators
+(C<&. |. ^. ~.>) that treat their operands consistently as strings. The
+same applies to the assignment variants (C<&= |= ^= &.= |.= ^.=>).
+
+See L<perlop/Bitwise String Operators> for details.
+
+This feature is available from Perl 5.22 onwards.
