Move to using Box<dyn Fn() -> ...> so that we can let plugins register
state.
This also adds a callback that'll get called from plugin registration so
that Clippy and other tools can register lints without using the plugin
API. The plugin API still works, but this new API is more compatible
with drivers other than rustc.
`Compiler::compile()` is different to all the other `Compiler` methods
because it lacks a `Queries` entry. It only has one call site, which is
in a test that doesn't need its specific characteristics.
This patch replaces that call with a call to `Compile::link()`, which is
similar enough for the test's purposes. It also notes that the method is
an illustrative example of how `Compiler` can be used.
Now that procedural macros no longer link transitively to libsyntax,
this shouldn't be needed any more! This commit is an experiment in
removing all dynamic libraries from rustc except for librustc_driver
itself. Let's see how far we can get with that!
This commit is an implementation of adding custom sections to wasm artifacts in
rustc. The intention here is to expose the ability of the wasm binary format to
contain custom sections with arbitrary user-defined data. Currently neither our
version of LLVM nor LLD supports this so the implementation is currently custom
to rustc itself.
The implementation here is to attach a `#[wasm_custom_section = "foo"]`
attribute to any `const` which has a type like `[u8; N]`. Other types of
constants aren't supported yet but may be added one day! This should hopefully
be enough to get off the ground with *some* custom section support.
The current semantics are that any constant tagged with `#[wasm_custom_section]`
section will be *appended* to the corresponding section in the final output wasm
artifact (and this affects dependencies linked in as well, not just the final
crate). This means that whatever is interpreting the contents must be able to
interpret binary-concatenated sections (or each constant needs to be in its own
custom section).
To test this change the existing `run-make` test suite was moved to a
`run-make-fulldeps` folder and a new `run-make` test suite was added which
applies to all targets by default. This test suite currently only has one test
which only runs for the wasm target (using a node.js script to use `WebAssembly`
in JS to parse the wasm output).
