It makes very little sense to maintain denylists of ABIs when, as far as
non-generic ABIs are concerned, targets usually only support a small
subset of the available ABIs.
This has historically been a cause of bugs such as us allowing use of
the platform-specific ABIs on x86 targets – these in turn would cause
LLVM errors or assertions to fire.
Fixes#57182

This PR adds ability for the target specifications to specify frame
pointer emission type that's not just “always” or “whatever cg decides”.
In particular there's a new mode that allows omission of the frame
pointer for leaf functions (those that don't call any other functions).
We then set this new mode for Aarch64-based Apple targets.
Fixes#86196
Emit warnings for unused fields in custom targets.
Add a warning which lists any fields in a custom target `json` file that aren't used. Currently unrecognized fields are ignored so, for example, a typo in the `json` will silently produce a target which isn't the one intended.
Tweak wasm_base target spec to indicate linker is not GNU and update linker inferring logic for wasm-ld.
Reported via [Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler/topic/wasi.20linker.20unknown.20argument.3A.20--as-needed): we try passing `--as-needed` to the linker if it's GNU ld which `wasm-ld` is not. Usually this isn't an issue for wasm as we would use the WasmLd linker driver but because the linker in question (`wasm32-unknown-wasi-wasm-ld`) ended with `-ld` our linker inferring [logic](f64503eb55/compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/back/link.rs (L957-L1040)) used the `GccLinker` implementations. (UPD: The linker inferring logic actually didn't apply in this case because the linker is actually invoked through gcc in the reported issue. But it's still worth updating the logic I think.)
This change then has 2 parts:
1. Update wasm_base target spec to indicate `linker_is_gnu: false` plus a few additions of `target.is_like_wasm` to handle flags `wasm-ld` does in fact support.
2. Improve the linker detection logic to properly determine the correct flavor of wasm linker we're using when we can.
We need to add the new `target.is_like_wasm` branches to handle the case where the "linker" used could be something like clang which would then under the hood call wasm-ld.
BPF target support
This adds `bpfel-unknown-none` and `bpfeb-unknown-none`, two new no_std targets that generate little and big endian BPF. The approach taken is very similar to the cuda target, where `TargetOptions::obj_is_bitcode` is enabled and code generation is done by the linker.
I added the targets to `dist-various-2`. There are [some tests](https://github.com/alessandrod/bpf-linker/tree/main/tests/assembly) in bpf-linker and I'm planning to add more. Those are currently not ran as part of rust CI.
wasm: Make simd types passed via indirection again
This commit updates wasm target specs to use `simd_types_indirect: true`
again. Long ago this was added since wasm simd types were always
translated to `v128` under-the-hood in LLVM, meaning that it didn't
matter whether that target feature was enabled or not. Now, however,
`v128` is conditionally used in codegen depending on target features
enabled, meaning that it's possible to get linker errors about different
signatures in code that correctly uses simd types. The fix is the same
as for all other platforms, which is to pass the type indirectly.
Remove unused feature gates
The first commit removes a usage of a feature gate, but I don't expect it to be controversial as the feature gate was only used to workaround a limitation of rust in the past. (closures never being `Clone`)
The second commit uses `#[allow_internal_unstable]` to avoid leaking the `trusted_step` feature gate usage from inside the index newtype macro. It didn't work for the `min_specialization` feature gate though.
The third commit removes (almost) all feature gates from the compiler that weren't used anyway.

Turn off frame pointer elimination on all Apple platforms.
This ends up disabling frame pointer elimination on aarch64_apple_darwin
which matches what clang does by default along with the
aarch64_apple_ios and x86_64_apple_darwin targets.
Further, the Apple docs "Writing ARM64 Code for Apple Platforms" has a section
called "Respect the Purpose of Specific CPU Registers" which
specifically calls out the frame pointer register (x29):
The frame pointer register (x29) must always address a valid frame
record. Some functions — such as leaf functions or tail calls — may
opt not to create an entry in this list As a result, stack traces
are always meaningful, even without debug information.
Other platforms are updated to not override the default.

CTFE core engine allocation & memory API improvemenets
This is a first step towards https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/841.
- make `Allocation` API offset-based (no more making up `Pointer`s just to access an `Allocation`)
- make `Memory` API higher-level (combine checking for access and getting access into one operation)

Only pass --[no-]gc-sections if linker is GNU ld.
Fixes a regression from #84468 where linking now fails with solaris linkers. LinkerFlavor::Gcc does not always mean GNU ld specifically. And in the case of at least the solaris ld in illumos, that flag is unrecognized and will cause the linking step to fail.
Even though removing the `is_like_solaris` branch from `gc_sections` in #84468 made sense as `-z ignore/record` are more analogous to the `--[no-]-as-needed` flags, it inadvertently caused solaris linkers to be passed the `--gc-sections` flag. So let's just change it to be more explicit about when we pass those flags.
Fix unused attributes on macro_rules.
The `unused_attributes` lint wasn't firing on attributes of `macro_rules` definitions. The consequence is that many attributes are silently ignored on `macro_rules`. The reason is that `unused_attributes` is a late-lint pass, and only has access to the HIR, which does not have macro_rules definitions.
My solution here is to change `non_exported_macro_attrs` to be `macro_attrs` (a list of all attributes used for `macro_rules`, instead of just those for `macro_export`), and then to check this list in the `unused_attributes` lint. There are a number of alternate approaches, but this seemed the most reliable and least invasive. I am open to completely different approaches, though.
One concern is that I don't fully understand the implications of extending `non_exported_macro_attrs` to include non-exported macros. That list was originally added in #62042 to handle stability attributes, so I suspect it was just an optimization since that was all that was needed. It was later extended to be included in SVH in #83901. #80641 also added a use to check for `invalid` attributes, which seems a little odd to me (it didn't validate non-exported macros, and seems highly specific).
Overall, there doesn't seem to be a clear story of when `unused_attributes` should be used versus an error like E0518. I considered alternatively using an "allow list" of built-in attributes that can be used on macro_rules (allow, warn, deny, forbid, cfg, cfg_attr, macro_export, deprecated, doc), but I feel like that could be a pain to maintain.
Some built-in attributes already present hard-errors when used with macro_rules. These are each hard-coded in various places:
- `derive`
- `test` and `bench`
- `proc_macro` and `proc_macro_derive`
- `inline`
- `global_allocator`
The primary motivation is that I sometimes see people use `#[macro_use]` in front of `macro_rules`, which indicates there is some confusion out there (evident that there was even a case of it in rustc).
Add default search path to `Target::search()`
The function `Target::search()` accepts a target triple and returns a `Target` struct defining the requested target.
There is a `// FIXME 16351: add a sane default search path?` comment that indicates it is desirable to include some sort of default. This was raised in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/16351 which was closed without any resolution.
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/31117 was proposed, however that has platform-specific logic that is unsuitable for systems without `/etc/`.
This patch implements the suggestion raised in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/16351#issuecomment-180878193 where a `target.json` file may be placed in `$(rustc --print sysroot)/lib/rustlib/<target-triple>/target.json`. This allows shipping a toolchain distribution as a single file that gets extracted to the sysroot.
rename LLVM target for RustyHermit
- RustyHermit is a library operating system, where the user-
and the kernel-space use the same target
- by a mistake a previous patch changes the target to an incorect value
- this merge request revert the previous changes
RustyHermit ist is a library operating system. In this case, we link a static library as kernel to the application. The final result is a bootable application. The library and the application have to use the same target. Currently, the targets are different (see also https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/x86_64_unknown_hermit.rs). Consequently, this commit change the LLVM target to 'hermit'.
This kernel spec is needed to disable the usage of FPU registers, which are not allowed in kernel space. In contrast to Linux, everything is running in ring 0 and also in the same address space.

Under some conditions, the toolchain will produce a sequence of linker
arguments that result in a NEEDED list that puts libc before libgcc_s;
e.g.,
[0] NEEDED 0x2046ba libc.so.1
[1] NEEDED 0x204723 libm.so.2
[2] NEEDED 0x204736 libsocket.so.1
[3] NEEDED 0x20478b libumem.so.1
[4] NEEDED 0x204763 libgcc_s.so.1
Both libc and libgcc_s provide an unwinder implementation, but libgcc_s
provides some extra symbols upon which Rust directly depends. If libc
is first in the NEEDED list we will find some of those symbols in libc
but others in libgcc_s, resulting in undefined behaviour as the two
implementations do not use compatible interior data structures.
This solution is not perfect, but is the simplest way to produce correct
binaries on illumos for now.
Be stricter about rejecting LLVM reserved registers in asm!
LLVM will silently produce incorrect code if these registers are used as operands.

We had already reverted the change on stable back in PR #83412.
Since then, we've had some movement on issue #83139, but not a 100% fix.
But also since then, we had bug reported, issue #84667, that looks like outright
codegen breakage, rather than problems confined to debuginfo issues.
So we are reverting PR #77885 on stable and beta. We'll reland PR #77885 (or some
variant) switching back to an LLVM-dependent selection of out-of-line call vs
inline-asm, after these other issues have been resolved.
further split up const_fn feature flag
This continues the work on splitting up `const_fn` into separate feature flags:
* `const_fn_trait_bound` for `const fn` with trait bounds
* `const_fn_unsize` for unsizing coercions in `const fn` (looks like only `dyn` unsizing is still guarded here)
I don't know if there are even any things left that `const_fn` guards... at least libcore and liballoc do not need it any more.
`@oli-obk` are you currently able to do reviews?
