This largely involves implementing the options debug-info-for-profiling
and profile-sample-use and forwarding them on to LLVM.
AutoFDO can be used on x86-64 Linux like this:
rustc -O -Cdebug-info-for-profiling main.rs -o main
perf record -b ./main
create_llvm_prof --binary=main --out=code.prof
rustc -O -Cprofile-sample-use=code.prof main.rs -o main2
Now `main2` will have feedback directed optimization applied to it.
The create_llvm_prof tool can be obtained from this github repository:

Fix clippy lints
I'm currently working on allowing clippy to run on librustdoc after a discussion I had with `@Mark-Simulacrum.` So in the meantime, I fixed a few lints on the compiler crates.
Rework HIR API to make invocations of the hir_crate query harder.
`hir_crate` forces the recomputation of queries that depend on it.
This PR aims at avoiding useless invocations of `hir_crate` by making dependent code go through `tcx.hir()`.
Pass real crate-level attributes to `pre_expansion_lint`
The PR concerns the unstable feature `register_tool` (#66079).
The feature's implementation requires the attributes of the crate being compiled, so that when attributes like `allow(foo::bar)` are encountered, it can be verified that `register_tool(foo)` appears in the crate root.
However, the crate's attributes are not readily available during early lint passes. Specifically, on this line, `krate.attrs` appears to be the attributes of the current source file, not the attributes of the whole crate: bf642323d6/compiler/rustc_lint/src/context.rs (L815)
Consequently, "unknown tool" errors were being produced when `allow(foo::bar)` appeared in a submodule, even though `register_tool(foo)` appeared in the crate root.
EDITED: The proposed fix is to obtain the real crate-level attributes in `configure_and_expand` and pass them to `pre_expansion_lint`. (See `@petrochenkov's` [comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/89214#issuecomment-926927072) below.)
The original "prosed fix" text follows.
---
The proposed fix is to add an `error_on_unknown_tool` flag to `LintLevelsBuilder`. The flag controls whether "unknown tool" errors are emitted. The flag is set during late passes, but not earlier.
More specifically, this PR contains two commits:
* The first adds a `known-tool-in-submodule` UI test that does not currently pass.
* The second adds the `error_on_unknown_tool` flag. The new test passes with the addition of this flag.
This change has the added benefit of eliminating some errors that were duplicated in existing tests.
To the reviewer: please check that I implemented the UI test correctly.
This just applies the suggested fixes from the compatibility warnings,
leaving any that are in practice spurious in. This is primarily intended to
provide a starting point to identify possible fixes to the migrations (e.g., by
avoiding spurious warnings).
A secondary commit cleans these up where they are false positives (as is true in
many of the cases).
Gather module items after lowering.
This avoids having a non-local analysis inside lowering.
By implementing `hir_module_items` using a visitor, we make sure that iterations and visitors are consistent.
Introduce -Z remap-cwd-prefix switch
This switch remaps any absolute paths rooted under the current
working directory to a new value. This includes remapping the
debug info in `DW_AT_comp_dir` and `DW_AT_decl_file`.
Importantly, this flag does not require passing the current working
directory to the compiler, such that the command line can be
run on any machine (with the same input files) and produce the
same results. This is critical property for debugging compiler
issues that crop up on remote machines.

Major Change Proposal: https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/450
Discussed on #38322. Would resolve issue #87325.
Add -Z panic-in-drop={unwind,abort} command-line option
This PR changes `Drop` to abort if an unwinding panic attempts to escape it, making the process abort instead. This has several benefits:
- The current behavior when unwinding out of `Drop` is very unintuitive and easy to miss: unwinding continues, but the remaining drops in scope are simply leaked.
- A lot of unsafe code doesn't expect drops to unwind, which can lead to unsoundness:
- https://github.com/servo/rust-smallvec/issues/14
- https://github.com/bluss/arrayvec/issues/3
- There is a code size and compilation time cost to this: LLVM needs to generate extra landing pads out of all calls in a drop implementation. This can compound when functions are inlined since unwinding will then continue on to process drops in the callee, which can itself unwind, etc.
- Initial measurements show a 3% size reduction and up to 10% compilation time reduction on some crates (`syn`).
One thing to note about `-Z panic-in-drop=abort` is that *all* crates must be built with this option for it to be sound since it makes the compiler assume that dropping `Box<dyn Any>` will never unwind.

Avoid invoking the hir_crate query to traverse the HIR
Walking the HIR tree is done using the `hir_crate` query. However, this is unnecessary, since `hir_owner(CRATE_DEF_ID)` provides the same information. Since depending on `hir_crate` forces dependents to always be executed, this leads to unnecessary work.
By splitting HIR and attributes visits, we can avoid an edge to `hir_crate` when trying to visit the HIR tree.
Detect bare blocks with type ascription that were meant to be a `struct` literal
Address part of #34255.
Potential improvement: silence the other knock down errors in `issue-34255-1.rs`.
Instead of updating global state to mark attributes as used,
we now explicitly emit a warning when an attribute is used in
an unsupported position. As a side effect, we are to emit more
detailed warning messages (instead of just a generic "unused" message).
`Session.check_name` is removed, since its only purpose was to mark
the attribute as used. All of the callers are modified to use
`Attribute.has_name`
Additionally, `AttributeType::AssumedUsed` is removed - an 'assumed
used' attribute is implemented by simply not performing any checks
in `CheckAttrVisitor` for a particular attribute.
We no longer emit unused attribute warnings for the `#[rustc_dummy]`
attribute - it's an internal attribute used for tests, so it doesn't
mark sense to treat it as 'unused'.
With this commit, a large source of global untracked state is removed.
This was removed by #85284 in favor of -Zprofiler-runtime=<name>.
However the suggested -Zprofiler-runtime=None doesn't work because
"None" is treated as a crate name.
Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field anyway, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information, we should remove it from
crates in this repo.
Add flag to configure `large_assignments` lint
The `large_assignments` lints detects moves over specified limit. The
limit is configured through `move_size_limit = "N"` attribute placed at
the root of a crate. When attribute is absent, the lint is disabled.
Make it possible to enable the lint without making any changes to the
source code, through a new flag `-Zmove-size-limit=N`. For example, to
detect moves exceeding 1023 bytes in a cargo crate, including all
dependencies one could use:
```
$ env RUSTFLAGS=-Zmove-size-limit=1024 cargo build -vv
```
Lint tracking issue #83518.
Add -Zfuture-incompat-test to assist with testing future-incompat reports.
This adds a `-Zfuture-incompat-test` cli flag to assist with testing future-incompatible reports. This flag causes all lints to be treated as a future-incompatible lint, and will emit a report for them. This is being added so that Cargo's testsuite can reliably test the reporting infrastructure. Right now, Cargo relies on using array_into_iter as a test subject. Since the breaking "future incompatible" lints are never intended to last forever, this means Cargo's testsuite would always need to keep changing to choose different lints (for example, #86330 proposed dropping that moniker for array_into_iter). With this flag, Cargo's tests can trigger any lint and check for the report.
