The posix_spawnattr_init & posix_spawn_file_actions_init might fail,
but their return code is not checked.
Check for non-zero return code and destroy only succesfully initialized
objects.
The cvt function compares the argument with -1 and when equal returns a new
io::Error constructed from errno. It is used together posix_spawn_* functions.
This is incorrect. Those functions do not set errno. Instead they return
non-zero error code directly.
Check for non-zero return code and use it to construct a new io::Error.
(docs): make mutex error comment consistent with codebase
Although exceptionally minor, I found this stands out from other error reporting language used in doc comments. With the existence of the `failure` crate, I suppose this could be slightly ambiguous. In any case, this change brings the particular comment into a consistent state with other mentions of returning errors.
Support static linking with glibc and target-feature=+crt-static
With this change, it's possible to build on a linux-gnu target and pass
RUSTFLAGS='-C target-feature=+crt-static' or the equivalent via a
`.cargo/config.toml` file, and get a statically linked executable.
Update to libc 0.2.78, which adds support for static linking with glibc.
Add `crt_static_respected` to the `linux_base` target spec.
Update `android_base` and `linux_musl_base` accordingly. Avoid enabling
crt_static_respected on Android platforms, since that hasn't been
tested.
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/65447.
Minor `hash_map` doc adjustments + item attribute orderings
This PR is really a couple visual changes glued together:
1. Some of the doc comments for items in `std::collections::hash_map` referenced the names of types without escaping their formatting (e.g. using "VacantEntry" instead of "`VacantEntry`") - the ones I could find were changed to the latter
2. The vast majority of pre-item attributes seem to place doc comments as the first attribute (instead of things like `#[feature(...)]`), so the few that had the other order were changed.
3. Also ordering related: the general trend seems to be that `#[feature]` attributes follow `#[inline]`, so I swapped the two lines in places where that ordering was reversed. This is primarily a change based on stylistic continuity and aesthetics - I'm not sure how important that actually is / should be.
I figured this would be pretty uncontroversial, but some of these might have been intentional for reasons I don't know about - if so, I'd be happy to remove the relevant changes. Of these, the final set of changes is probably the most unnecessary, so it also might be better to leave those out (in favor of reducing code churn).
Unbox mutexes and condvars on some platforms
Both mutexes and condition variables contained a Box containing the actual os-specific object. This was done because moving these objects may cause undefined behaviour on some platforms.
However, this is not needed on Windows[1], Wasm[2], cloudabi[2], and 'unsupported'[3], were the box was only needlessly making them less efficient.
This change gets rid of the box on those platforms.
On those platforms, `Condvar` can no longer verify it is only used with one `Mutex`, as mutexes no longer have a stable address. This was addressed and considered acceptable in #76932.
[1]\: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/synchapi/nf-synchapi-initializesrwlock
[2]\: These are just a single atomic integer together with futex wait/wake calls/instructions.
[3]\: The `unsupported` platform doesn't support multiple threads at all.
Only use LOCAL_{STDOUT,STDERR} when set_{print/panic} is used.
The thread local `LOCAL_STDOUT` and `LOCAL_STDERR` are only used by the `test` crate to capture output from tests when running them in the same process in differen threads. However, every program will check these variables on every print, even outside of testing.
This involves allocating a thread local key, and registering a thread local destructor. This can be somewhat expensive.
This change keeps a global flag (`LOCAL_STREAMS`) which will be set to `true` when either of these local streams is used. (So, effectively only in test and benchmark runs.) When this flag is off, these thread locals are not even looked at and therefore will not be initialized on the first output on every thread, which also means no thread local destructors will be registered.

Together with https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/77154, this should make output a little bit more efficient.
Fix Debug implementations of some of the HashMap and BTreeMap iterator types
HashMap's `ValuesMut`, BTreeMaps `ValuesMut`, IntoValues and `IntoKeys` structs were printing both keys and values on their Debug implementations. But they are iterators over either keys or values. Irrelevant values should not be visible. With this PR, they only show relevant fields.
This fixes#75297.
[Here's an example code.](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=0c79356ed860e347a0c1a205616f93b7) This prints this on nightly:
```
ValuesMut { inner: IterMut { range: [(1, "hello"), (2, "goodbye")], length: 2 } }
IntoKeys { inner: [(1, "hello"), (2, "goodbye")] }
IntoValues { inner: [(1, "hello"), (2, "goodbye")] }
[(2, "goodbye"), (1, "hello")]
```
After the patch this example prints these instead:
```
["hello", "goodbye"]
["hello", "goodbye"]
[1, 2]
["hello", "goodbye"]
```
I didn't add test cases for them, since I couldn't see any tests for Debug implementations anywhere. But please let me know if I should add it to a specific place.

Use posix_spawn on musl targets
The posix_spawn had been available in a form suitable for use in a
Command implementation since musl 0.9.12. Use it in a preference to a
fork when possible, to benefit from CLONE_VM|CLONE_VFORK used there.
Previously `Command::spawn` would fall back to the non-posix_spawn based
implementation if the `PATH` environment variable was possibly changed.
On systems with a modern (g)libc `posix_spawn()` can be significantly
faster. If program is a path itself the `PATH` environment variable is
not used for the lookup and it should be safe to use the
`posix_spawnp()` method. [1]
We found this, because we have a cli application that effectively runs a
lot of subprocesses. It would sometimes noticeably hang while printing
output. Profiling showed that the process was spending the majority of
time in the kernel's `copy_page_range` function while spawning
subprocesses. During this time the process is completely blocked from
running, explaining why users were reporting the cli app hanging.
Through this we discovered that `std::process::Command` has a fast and
slow path for process execution. The fast path is backed by
`posix_spawnp()` and the slow path by fork/exec syscalls being called
explicitly. Using fork for process creation is supposed to be fast, but
it slows down as your process uses more memory. It's not because the
kernel copies the actual memory from the parent, but it does need to
copy the references to it (see `copy_page_range` above!). We ended up
using the slow path, because the command spawn implementation in falls
back to the slow path if it suspects the PATH environment variable was
changed.
Here is a smallish program demonstrating the slowdown before this code
change:
```
use std::process::Command;
use std::time::Instant;
fn main() {
let mut args = std::env::args().skip(1);
if let Some(size) = args.next() {
// Allocate some memory
let _xs: Vec<_> = std::iter::repeat(0)
.take(size.parse().expect("valid number"))
.collect();
let mut command = Command::new("/bin/sh");
command
.arg("-c")
.arg("echo hello");
if args.next().is_some() {
println!("Overriding PATH");
command.env("PATH", std::env::var("PATH").expect("PATH env var"));
}
let now = Instant::now();
let child = command
.spawn()
.expect("failed to execute process");
println!("Spawn took: {:?}", now.elapsed());
let output = child.wait_with_output().expect("failed to wait on process");
println!("Output: {:?}", output);
} else {
eprintln!("Usage: prog [size]");
std::process::exit(1);
}
()
}
```
Running it and passing different amounts of elements to use to allocate
memory shows that the time taken for `spawn()` can differ quite
significantly. In latter case the `posix_spawnp()` implementation is 30x
faster:
```
$ cargo run --release 10000000
...
Spawn took: 324.275µs
hello
$ cargo run --release 10000000 changepath
...
Overriding PATH
Spawn took: 2.346809ms
hello
$ cargo run --release 100000000
...
Spawn took: 387.842µs
hello
$ cargo run --release 100000000 changepath
...
Overriding PATH
Spawn took: 13.434677ms
hello
```

Add accessors to Command.
This adds some accessor methods to `Command` to provide a way to access the values set when building the `Command`. An example where this can be useful is to display the command to be executed. This is roughly based on the [`ProcessBuilder`](13b73cdaf7/src/cargo/util/process_builder.rs (L105-L134)) in Cargo.
Possible concerns about the API:
- Values with NULs on Unix will be returned as `"<string-with-nul>"`. I don't think it is practical to avoid this, since otherwise a whole separate copy of all the values would need to be kept in `Command`.
- Does not handle `arg0` on Unix. This can be awkward to support in `get_args` and is rarely used. I figure if someone really wants it, it can be added to `CommandExt` as a separate method.
- Does not offer a way to detect `env_clear`. I'm uncertain if it would be useful for anyone.
- Does not offer a way to get an environment variable by name (`get_env`). I figure this can be added later if anyone really wants it. I think the motivation for this is weak, though. Also, the API could be a little awkward (return a `Option<Option<&OsStr>>`?).
- `get_envs` could skip "cleared" entries and just return `&OsStr` values instead of `Option<&OsStr>`. I'm on the fence here. My use case is to display a shell command, and I only intend it to be roughly equivalent to the actual execution, and I probably won't display `None` entries. I erred on the side of providing extra information, but I suspect many situations will just filter out the `None`s.
- Could implement more iterator stuff (like `DoubleEndedIterator`).
I have not implemented new std items before, so I'm uncertain if the existing issue should be reused, or if a new tracking issue is needed.
