This adds support for lint groups to the compiler. Lint groups are a way of
grouping a number of lints together under one name. For example, this also
defines a default lint for naming conventions, named `bad_style`. Writing
`#[allow(bad_style)]` is equivalent to writing
`#[allow(non_camel_case_types, non_snake_case, non_uppercase_statics)]`. These
lint groups can also be defined as a compiler plugin using the new
`Registry::register_lint_group` method.
This also adds two built-in lint groups, `bad_style` and `unused`. The contents
of these groups can be seen by running `rustc -W help`.
This unifies the `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints
into one lint, `non_snake_case`. It also now checks for non-snake-case modules.
This also extends the non-camel-case types lint to check type parameters, and
merges the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` lint into the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint.
Because the `uppercase_variables` lint is now part of the `non_snake_case`
lint, all non-snake-case variables that start with lowercase characters (such
as `fooBar`) will now trigger the `non_snake_case` lint.
New code should be updated to use the new `non_snake_case` lint instead of the
previous `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints. All use of
the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` should be replaced with the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint. Any code that previously contained non-snake-case
module or variable names should be updated to use snake case names or disable
the `non_snake_case` lint. Any code with non-camel-case type parameters should
be changed to use camel case or disable the `non_camel_case_types` lint.

The inference scheme proposed in <http://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps/blog/2014/07/09/an-experimental-new-type-inference-scheme-for-rust/>.
This is theoretically a [breaking-change]. It is possible that you may encounter type checking errors, particularly related to closures or functions with higher-ranked lifetimes or object types. Adding more explicit type annotations should help the problem. However, I have not been able to make an example that *actually* successfully compiles with the older scheme and fails with the newer scheme.

# Changes to `core::option`
Most of the module is marked as stable or unstable; most of the unstable items are awaiting resolution of conventions issues.
However, a few methods have been deprecated, either due to lack of use or redundancy:
* `take_unwrap`, `get_ref` and `get_mut_ref` (redundant, and we prefer for this functionality to go through an explicit .unwrap)
* `filtered` and `while`
* `mutate` and `mutate_or_set`
* `collect`: this functionality is being moved to a new `FromIterator` impl.
# Changes to `core::result`

DST coercions and DST fields in structs
The commits are not quite stand alone, I should probably squash them together before landing. In particular if you review the individual commits, then you'll see some scrappy stuff that gets fixed in later commits. But reading the commits in order might be easier to get an overall idea of what is going on.
The first commit includes putting back time zone into our time library - @pcwalton removed that as part of his de-~str'ing, but I had already converted it to use StrBuf, so we may as well leave it in. Update: no longer, this is removed in a later commit.

1. The internal layout for traits has changed from (vtable, data) to (data, vtable). If you were relying on this in unsafe transmutes, you might get some very weird and apparently unrelated errors. You should not be doing this! Prefer not to do this at all, but if you must, you should use raw::TraitObject rather than hardcoding rustc's internal representation into your code.
2. The minimal type of reference-to-vec-literals (e.g., `&[1, 2, 3]`) is now a fixed size vec (e.g., `&[int, ..3]`) where it used to be an unsized vec (e.g., `&[int]`). If you want the unszied type, you must explicitly give the type (e.g., `let x: &[_] = &[1, 2, 3]`). Note in particular where multiple blocks must have the same type (e.g., if and else clauses, vec elements), the compiler will not coerce to the unsized type without a hint. E.g., `[&[1], &[1, 2]]` used to be a valid expression of type '[&[int]]'. It no longer type checks since the first element now has type `&[int, ..1]` and the second has type &[int, ..2]` which are incompatible.
3. The type of blocks (including functions) must be coercible to the expected type (used to be a subtype). Mostly this makes things more flexible and not less (in particular, in the case of coercing function bodies to the return type). However, in some rare cases, this is less flexible. TBH, I'm not exactly sure of the exact effects. I think the change causes us to resolve inferred type variables slightly earlier which might make us slightly more restrictive. Possibly it only affects blocks with unreachable code. E.g., `if ... { fail!(); "Hello" }` used to type check, it no longer does. The fix is to add a semicolon after the string.
As of RFC 18, struct layout is undefined. Opting into a C-compatible struct
layout is now down with #[repr(C)]. For consistency, specifying a packed
layout is now also down with #[repr(packed)]. Both can be specified.
To fix errors caused by this, just add #[repr(C)] to the structs, and change
#[packed] to #[repr(packed)]

declared with the same name in the same scope.
This breaks several common patterns. First are unused imports:
use foo::bar;
use baz::bar;
Change this code to the following:
use baz::bar;
Second, this patch breaks globs that import names that are shadowed by
subsequent imports. For example:
use foo::*; // including `bar`
use baz::bar;
Change this code to remove the glob:
use foo::{boo, quux};
use baz::bar;
Or qualify all uses of `bar`:
use foo::{boo, quux};
use baz;
... baz::bar ...
Finally, this patch breaks code that, at top level, explicitly imports
`std` and doesn't disable the prelude.
extern crate std;
Because the prelude imports `std` implicitly, there is no need to
explicitly import it; just remove such directives.
The old behavior can be opted into via the `import_shadowing` feature
gate. Use of this feature gate is discouraged.
This implements RFC #116.

This paves the way to associated items by introducing an extra level of
abstraction ("impl-or-trait item") between traits/implementations and
methods. This new abstraction is encoded in the metadata and used
throughout the compiler where appropriate.
There are no functional changes; this is purely a refactoring.
This patch primarily does two things: (1) it prevents lifetimes from
leaking out of unboxed closures; (2) it allows unboxed closure type
notation, call notation, and construction notation to construct closures
matching any of the three traits.
This breaks code that looked like:
let mut f;
{
let x = &5i;
f = |&mut:| *x + 10;
}
Change this code to avoid having a reference escape. For example:
{
let x = &5i;
let mut f; // <-- move here to avoid dangling reference
f = |&mut:| *x + 10;
}
I believe this is enough to consider unboxed closures essentially
implemented. Further issues (for example, higher-rank lifetimes) should
be filed as followups.

The `type_overflow` lint, doesn't catch the overflow for `i64` because
the overflow happens earlier in the parse phase when the `u64` as biggest
possible int gets casted to `i64` , without checking the for overflows.
We can't lint in the parse phase, so a refactoring of the `LitInt` type
was necessary.
The types `LitInt`, `LitUint` and `LitIntUnsuffixed` where merged to one
type `LitInt` which stores it's value as `u64`. An additional parameter was
added which indicate the signedness of the type and the sign of the value.
Using the Show impl for Names created global symbols with names like
`"str\"str\"(1027)"`. This adjusts strings, binaries and vtables to

This is an alternative to upgrading the way rvalues are handled in the
borrow check. Making rvalues handled more like lvalues in the borrow
check caused numerous problems related to double mutable borrows and
rvalue scopes. Rather than come up with more borrow check rules to try
to solve these problems, I decided to just forbid pattern bindings after
`@`. This affected fewer than 10 lines of code in the compiler and
libraries.

that better suits the needs of the compiler. This patch factors out

Currently, each time a function is monomorphized, all items within that function are translated.

Remove the ability of the borrow checker to determine that repeated

This commit applies stability attributes to the contents of these modules,
summarized here:
* The `unit` and `bool` modules have become #[unstable] as they are purely meant
for documentation purposes and are candidates for removal.
* The `ty` module has been deprecated, and the inner `Unsafe` type has been
renamed to `UnsafeCell` and moved to the `cell` module. The `marker1` field
has been removed as the compiler now always infers `UnsafeCell` to be
invariant. The `new` method i stable, but the `value` field, `get` and
`unwrap` methods are all unstable.
* The `tuple` module has its name as stable, the naming of the `TupleN` traits
as stable while the methods are all #[unstable]. The other impls in the module
have appropriate stability for the corresponding trait.
* The `arc` module has received the exact same treatment as the `rc` module
previously did.
* The `any` module has its name as stable. The `Any` trait is also stable, with
a new private supertrait which now contains the `get_type_id` method. This is
to make the method a private implementation detail rather than a public-facing
detail.
The two extension traits in the module are marked #[unstable] as they will not
be necessary with DST. The `is` method is #[stable], the as_{mut,ref} methods
have been renamed to downcast_{mut,ref} and are #[unstable].
The extension trait `BoxAny` has been clarified as to why it is unstable as it
will not be necessary with DST.
This is a breaking change because the `marker1` field was removed from the
`UnsafeCell` type. To deal with this change, you can simply delete the field and
only specify the value of the `data` field in static initializers.

The allocas used in match expression currently don't get good lifetime
markers, in fact they only get lifetime start markers, because their
lifetimes don't match to cleanup scopes.
While the bindings themselves are bog standard and just need a matching
pair of start and end markers, they might need them twice, once for a
guard clause and once for the match body.
The __llmatch alloca OTOH needs a single lifetime start marker, but
when there's a guard clause, it needs two end markers, because its
lifetime ends either when the guard doesn't match or after the match
body.
With these intrinsics in place, LLVM can now, for example, optimize
code like this:
````rust
enum E {

A2(int),
A3(int),
A4(int),
}
pub fn variants(x: E) {
match x {
A1(m) => bar(&m),
A2(m) => bar(&m),
A3(m) => bar(&m),
A4(m) => bar(&m),
}
}
````
To a single call to bar, using only a single stack slot. It still fails
to eliminate some of checks.

Lifetime intrinsics help to reduce stack usage, because LLVM can apply
stack coloring to reuse the stack slots of dead allocas for new ones.
For example these functions now both use the same amount of stack, while
previous `bar()` used five times as much as `foo()`:
````rust

println("{}", 5);

On top of that, LLVM can also optimize out certain operations when it
knows that memory is dead after a certain point. For example, it can
sometimes remove the zeroing used to cancel the drop glue. This is
possible when the glue drop itself was already removed because the
zeroing dominated the drop glue call. For example in:
````rust
pub fn bar(x: (Box<int>, int)) -> (Box<int>, int) {
x

Lifetime intrinsics help to reduce stack usage, because LLVM can apply
stack coloring to reuse the stack slots of dead allocas for new ones.
For example these functions now both use the same amount of stack, while
previous `bar()` used five times as much as `foo()`:
````rust
fn foo() {
println("{}", 5);
}
fn bar() {
println("{}", 5);
println("{}", 5);
println("{}", 5);

Drive-by: Added some missing docs on the `each_bit` method.
Drive-by: Put in a regular pattern: when calling `compute_id_range`, ensure `words_per_id > 0` by either asserting it or checking and returning early. (The prior code did the latter in a few cases where necessary, but debugging is much aided by the asserts.)

Importing from types was disallowed in #6462. Flag was set for paths whether it is a module or a type. Type flag was set when impl was seen. The problem is, for cross-crate situations, when reexport is involved, it is possible that impl is seen too late because metadata is loaded lazily.

This should fix issue #15541. It would be good to have an test case for this would also be nice but I haven't had the time to write one. The change is very small though and it doesn't break anything in the existing test suite, so I guess we can add it without test for now.

Cross borrowing for trait objects remains because it is needed until we

This makes two changes to region inference: (1) it allows region
inference to relate early-bound regions; and (2) it allows regions to be
related before variance runs. The former is needed because there is no
relation between the two regions before region substitution happens,
while the latter is needed because type collection has to run before
variance. We assume that, before variance is inferred, that lifetimes
are invariant. This is a conservative overapproximation.
This relates to #13885. This does not remove `~self` from the language
yet, however.

Disabling the redzone is required in x86-64's kernel mode to avoid interrupts trashing the stack.
I'm not sure if decl_fn is the right place to tag all functions with noredzone. It might have interactions with external functions when linking with bitcode built without -C no-redzone although I see no reason to do that.
I'm not sure how to write a test inspecting the bitcode output for noredzone attributes on all functions either.
This patch applies the excellent suggestion of @pnkfelix to group the helper methods for method field access into a Trait, making the code much more readable, and much more similar to the way it was before.

The important bit of this are the changes from line 445 in mem_categorization.rs. Most of the other changes are about adding an Implicit PointerKind, and this is only necessary for getting a decent error message :-s An alternative would have been to add an implciti/explicit flag to cat_deref, which could be mostly ignored and so would mean much fewer changes. However, the implicit state would only be valid if the PointerKind was BorrowedPtr, so it felt like it ought to be another kind of PointerKind. I still don't know which is the better design.
To verify that a type can satisfy Send
`check_struct_safe_for_destructor` attempts to construct a new `ty::t`
an empty substitution list.
Previously the function would verify that the function has no type
parameters before attempting this. Unfortunately this check would not
catch functions with only regions parameters. In this case, the type
would eventually find its way to the substition engine which would
attempt to perform a substitution on the region parameters. As the
constructed substitution list is empty, this would fail, leading to a
compiler crash.
We fix this by verifying that types have both no type and region
parameters.
Previously this was an Option::unwrap() which failed for me.
Unfortunately I've since inadvertently worked around the bug and have
been unable to reproduce it. With this patch hopefully the next person
to encounter this will be in a slightly better position to debug it.
Per @pnkfelix 's suggestion, using a trait to make these

This also adds a module, `syntax::ast_map::blocks`, that captures a
common abstraction shared amongst code blocks and procedure-like
things. As part of this, moved `ast_map.rs` to subdir
`ast_map/mod.rs`, to follow our directory layout conventions.
(incorporated review feedback from huon, acrichto.)
This change propagates to many locations, but because of the
Macro Exterminator (or, more properly, the invariant that it
protects), macro invocations can't occur downstream of expansion.
This means that in librustc and librustdoc, extracting the
desired field can simply assume that it can't be a macro
invocation. Functions in ast_util abstract over this check.
This is a continuation of @brson's work from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/12144.
This implements the minimal scaffolding that allows mapping diagnostic messages to alpha-numeric codes, which could improve the searchability of errors. In addition, there's a new compiler option, `--explain {code}` which takes an error code and prints out a somewhat detailed explanation of the error. Example:
```rust
fn f(x: Option<bool>) {
match x {
Some(true) | Some(false) => (),
None => (),
Some(true) => ()
}
}
```
```shell

This error suggests that the expression arm corresponding to the noted pattern
will never be reached as for all possible values of the expression being matched,
one of the preceeding patterns will match.
This means that perhaps some of the preceeding patterns are too general, this
one is too specific or the ordering is incorrect.

I've refrained from migrating many errors to actually use the new macros as it can be done in an incremental fashion but if we're happy with the approach, it'd be good to do all of them sooner rather than later.
Originally, I was going to make libdiagnostics a separate crate but that's posing some interesting challenges with semi-circular dependencies. In particular, librustc would have a plugin-phase dependency on libdiagnostics, which itself depends on librustc. Per my conversation with @alexcrichton, it seems like the snapshotting process would also have to change. So for now the relevant modules from libdiagnostics are included using `#[path = ...] mod`.
This removes a bunch of token types. Tokens now store the original, unaltered
numeric literal (that is still checked for correctness), which is parsed into
an actual number later, as needed, when creating the AST.
This can change how syntax extensions work, but otherwise poses no visible
changes.

formerly, the self identifier was being discarded during parsing, which
stymies hygiene. The best fix here seems to be to attach a self identifier
to ExplicitSelf_, a change that rippled through the rest of the compiler,
but without any obvious damage.
This updates https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/15075.
Rename `ToStr::to_str` to `ToString::to_string`. The naive renaming ends up with two `to_string` functions defined on strings in the prelude (the other defined via `collections::str::StrAllocating`). To remedy this I removed `StrAllocating::to_string`, making all conversions from `&str` to `String` go through `Show`. This has a measurable impact on the speed of this conversion, but the sense I get from others is that it's best to go ahead and unify `to_string` and address performance for all `to_string` conversions in `core::fmt`. `String::from_str(...)` still works as a manual fast-path.
Note that the patch was done with a script, and ended up renaming a number of other `*_to_str` functions, particularly inside of rustc. All the ones I saw looked correct, and I didn't notice any additional API breakage.

LLVM doesn't handle i1 value in allocas/memory very well and skips a number of optimizations if it hits it. So we have to do the same thing that Clang does, using i1 for SSA values, but storing i8 in memory.
Fixes#15203.
LLVM doesn't really like types with a bit-width that isn't a multiple of
8 and disable various optimizations if it encounters such types used
with loads/stores. OTOH, booleans must be represented as i1 when used as
SSA values. To get the best results, we must use i1 for SSA values, and
i8 when storing the value to memory.
By using range asserts on loads, LLVM can eliminate the required
zero-extend and truncate operations.

This is an implementation of [RFC 35](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/active/0035-remove-crate-id.md).
The summary for this PR is the same as that of the RFC, with one addendum:
* Removes the `#[crate_id]` attribute and knowledge of versions from rustc.
* Added a `#[crate_name]` attribute similar to the old `#[crate_id]` attribute
* Output filenames no longer have versions or hashes
* Symbols no longer have versions (they still have hashes)
* A new flag, `--extern`, is used to override searching for external crates
* A new flag, `-C metadata=foo`, used when hashing symbols
* [added] An old flag, `--crate-name`, was re purposed to specify the crate name from the command line.
I tried to maintain backwards compatibility wherever possible (with warnings being printed). If I missed anywhere, however, please let me know!

This comit implements a new flag, --extern, which is used to specify where a
crate is located. The purpose of this flag is to bypass the normal crate
loading/matching of the compiler to point it directly at the right file.
This flag takes the form `--extern foo=bar` where `foo` is the name of a crate
and `bar` is the location at which to find the crate. Multiple `--extern`
directives are allowed with the same crate name to specify the rlib/dylib pair
for a crate. It is invalid to specify more than one rlib or more than one dylib,
and it's required that the crates are valid rust crates.
I have also added some extensive documentation to metadata::loader about how
crate loading should work.
RFC: 0035-remove-crate-id
This commit removes all support in the compiler for the #[crate_id] attribute

* The #[crate_id] attribute no longer exists
* There is no longer the concept of a version of a crate
* Version numbers are no longer appended to symbol names
* The --crate-id command line option has been removed
To migrate forward, rename #[crate_id] to #[crate_name] and only the name of the
crate itself should be mentioned. The version/path of the old crate id should be
removed.
For a transitionary state, the #[crate_id] attribute is still accepted if
the #[crate_name] is not present, but it is warned about if it is the only
identifier present.
