std: Add a new wasm32-unknown-unknown target This commit adds a new target to the compiler: wasm32-unknown-unknown. This target is a reimagining of what it looks like to generate WebAssembly code from Rust. Instead of using Emscripten which can bring with it a weighty runtime this instead is a target which uses only the LLVM backend for WebAssembly and a "custom linker" for now which will hopefully one day be direct calls to lld. Notable features of this target include: * There is zero runtime footprint. The target assumes nothing exists other than the wasm32 instruction set. * There is zero toolchain footprint beyond adding the target. No custom linker is needed, rustc contains everything. * Very small wasm modules can be generated directly from Rust code using this target. * Most of the standard library is stubbed out to return an error, but anything related to allocation works (aka `HashMap`, `Vec`, etc). * Naturally, any `#[no_std]` crate should be 100% compatible with this new target. This target is currently somewhat janky due to how linking works. The "linking" is currently unconditional whole program LTO (aka LLVM is being used as a linker). Naturally that means compiling programs is pretty slow! Eventually though this target should have a linker. This target is also intended to be quite experimental. I'm hoping that this can act as a catalyst for further experimentation in Rust with WebAssembly. Breaking changes are very likely to land to this target, so it's not recommended to rely on it in any critical capacity yet. We'll let you know when it's "production ready". --- Currently testing-wise this target is looking pretty good but isn't complete. I've got almost the entire `run-pass` test suite working with this target (lots of tests ignored, but many passing as well). The `core` test suite is still getting LLVM bugs fixed to get that working and will take some time. Relatively simple programs all seem to work though! --- It's worth nothing that you may not immediately see the "smallest possible wasm module" for the input you feed to rustc. For various reasons it's very difficult to get rid of the final "bloat" in vanilla rustc (again, a real linker should fix all this). For now what you'll have to do is: cargo install --git https://github.com/alexcrichton/wasm-gc wasm-gc foo.wasm bar.wasm And then `bar.wasm` should be the smallest we can get it! --- In any case for now I'd love feedback on this, particularly on the various integration points if you've got better ideas of how to approach them!

std: Depend directly on crates.io crates Ever since we added a Cargo-based build system for the compiler the standard library has always been a little special, it's never been able to depend on crates.io crates for runtime dependencies. This has been a result of various limitations, namely that Cargo doesn't understand that crates from crates.io depend on libcore, so Cargo tries to build crates before libcore is finished. I had an idea this afternoon, however, which lifts the strategy from #52919 to directly depend on crates.io crates from the standard library. After all is said and done this removes a whopping three submodules that we need to manage! The basic idea here is that for any crate `std` depends on it adds an *optional* dependency on an empty crate on crates.io, in this case named `rustc-std-workspace-core`. This crate is overridden via `[patch]` in this repository to point to a local crate we write, and *that* has a `path` dependency on libcore. Note that all `no_std` crates also depend on `compiler_builtins`, but if we're not using submodules we can publish `compiler_builtins` to crates.io and all crates can depend on it anyway! The basic strategy then looks like: * The standard library (or some transitive dep) decides to depend on a crate `foo`. * The standard library adds ```toml [dependencies] foo = { version = "0.1", features = ['rustc-dep-of-std'] } ``` * The crate `foo` has an optional dependency on `rustc-std-workspace-core` * The crate `foo` has an optional dependency on `compiler_builtins` * The crate `foo` has a feature `rustc-dep-of-std` which activates these crates and any other necessary infrastructure in the crate. A sample commit for `dlmalloc` [turns out to be quite simple][commit]. After that all `no_std` crates should largely build "as is" and still be publishable on crates.io! Notably they should be able to continue to use stable Rust if necessary, since the `rename-dependency` feature of Cargo is soon stabilizing. As a proof of concept, this commit removes the `dlmalloc`, `libcompiler_builtins`, and `libc` submodules from this repository. Long thorns in our side these are now gone for good and we can directly depend on crates.io! It's hoped that in the long term we can bring in other crates as necessary, but for now this is largely intended to simply make it easier to manage these crates and remove submodules. This should be a transparent non-breaking change for all users, but one possible stickler is that this almost for sure breaks out-of-tree `std`-building tools like `xargo` and `cargo-xbuild`. I think it should be relatively easy to get them working, however, as all that's needed is an entry in the `[patch]` section used to build the standard library. Hopefully we can work with these tools to solve this problem! [commit]: https://github.com/alexcrichton/dlmalloc-rs/commit/28ee12db813a3b650a7c25d1c36d2c17dcb88ae3
