This allows us to remove `static_panic_msg` from the SSA<->LLVM
boundary, along with its fat pointer representation for &str.
Also changes the signature of PanicInfo::internal_contructor to
avoid copying.
Closes#65856.
It stop asserts and panics from libstd to automatically
include string output and formatting code.
Use case: developing static executables smaller than 50 kilobytes,
where usual formatting code is excessive while keeping debuggability
in debug mode.
May resolve#54981.
You can now choose between the following:
- `#[unwind(allowed)]`
- `#[unwind(aborts)]`
Per rust-lang/rust#48251, the default is `#[unwind(allowed)]`, though
I think we should change this eventually.
Replaced by adding extra imports, adding hidden code (`# ...`), modifying
examples to be runnable (sorry Homura), specifying non-Rust code, and
converting to should_panic, no_run, or compile_fail.
Remaining "```ignore"s received an explanation why they are being ignored.
Unwinding across an FFI boundary is undefined behaviour, so we can mark
all external function as nounwind. The obvious exception are those
functions that actually perform the unwinding.
This commit shards the broad `core` feature of the libcore library into finer
grained features. This split groups together similar APIs and enables tracking
each API separately, giving a better sense of where each feature is within the
stabilization process.
A few minor APIs were deprecated along the way:
* Iterator::reverse_in_place
* marker::NoCopy
Display::fmt for str calls into Formatter::pad, which is modest in size
and also pulls in string-related functions for its truncation and padding
abilities. For size-critical programs (e.g. embedded), this call site
may be the only reason Formatter::pad is linked into the output.
This includes updating the language items and marking what needs to
change after a snapshot.
If you do not use the standard library, the language items you need to
implement have changed. For example:
```rust
#[lang = "fail_fmt"] fn fail_fmt() -> ! { loop {} }
```
is now
```rust
#[lang = "panic_fmt"] fn panic_fmt() -> ! { loop {} }
```
Related, lesser-implemented language items `fail` and
`fail_bounds_check` have become `panic` and `panic_bounds_check`, as
well. These are implemented by `libcore`, so it is unlikely (though
possible!) that these two renamings will affect you.

Fix test suite
https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/221
The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when
writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the
possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot
because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak
of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other
circumlocutions.
Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when
operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate
out a section describing the "Err-producing" case.
We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as
an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology
accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe.
To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead.
Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this
will work on UNIX based systems:
grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g'
You can of course also do this by hand.
