This commit removes the `-D warnings` flag being passed through the makefiles to
all crates to instead be a crate attribute. We want these attributes always
applied for all our standard builds, and this is more amenable to Cargo-based
builds as well.
Note that all `deny(warnings)` attributes are gated with a `cfg(stage0)`
attribute currently to match the same semantics we have today
I needed it in `RawVec`, `Vec`, and `TypedArena` for `rustc` to
bootstrap; but of course that alone was not sufficient for `make
check`.
Later I added `unsafe_destructor_blind_to_params` to collections, in
particular `LinkedList` and `RawTable` (the backing representation for
`HashMap` and `HashSet`), to get the regression tests exercising
cyclic structure from PR #27185 building.
----
Note that the feature is `dropck_parametricity` (which is not the same
as the attribute's name). We will almost certainly vary our strategy
here in the future, so it makes some sense to have a not-as-ugly name
for the feature gate. (The attribute name was deliberately selected to
be ugly looking.)
This commit does some refactoring to make almost all of the `std::rt` private.
Specifically, the following items are no longer part of its API:
* DEFAULT_ERROR_CODE
* backtrace
* unwind
* args
* at_exit
* cleanup
* heap (this is just alloc::heap)
* min_stack
* util
The module is now tagged as `#[doc(hidden)]` as the only purpose it's serve is
an entry point for the `panic!` macro via the `begin_unwind` and
`begin_unwind_fmt` reexports.
The replacements are functions that usually use a single `mem::transmute` in
their body and restrict input and output via more concrete types than `T` and
`U`. Worth noting are the `transmute` functions for slices and the `from_utf8*`
family for mutable slices. Additionally, `mem::transmute` was often used for
casting raw pointers, when you can already cast raw pointers just fine with
`as`.
This removes a footgun, since it is a reasonable assumption to make that
pointers to `T` will be aligned to `align_of::<T>()`. This also matches
the behaviour of C/C++. `min_align_of` is now deprecated.
Closes#21611.
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
This permits all coercions to be performed in casts, but adds lints to warn in those cases.
Part of this patch moves cast checking to a later stage of type checking. We acquire obligations to check casts as part of type checking where we previously checked them. Once we have type checked a function or module, then we check any cast obligations which have been acquired. That means we have more type information available to check casts (this was crucial to making coercions work properly in place of some casts), but it means that casts cannot feed input into type inference.
[breaking change]
* Adds two new lints for trivial casts and trivial numeric casts, these are warn by default, but can cause errors if you build with warnings as errors. Previously, trivial numeric casts and casts to trait objects were allowed.
* The unused casts lint has gone.
* Interactions between casting and type inference have changed in subtle ways. Two ways this might manifest are:
- You may need to 'direct' casts more with extra type information, for example, in some cases where `foo as _ as T` succeeded, you may now need to specify the type for `_`
- Casts do not influence inference of integer types. E.g., the following used to type check:
```
let x = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
Because the cast would inform inference that `x` must have type `u32`. This no longer applies and the compiler will fallback to `i32` for `x` and thus there will be a type error in the cast. The solution is to add more type information:
```
let x: u32 = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
This is the kind of change that one is expected to need to make to
accommodate overloaded-`box`.

Note that this is not *all* of the changes necessary to accommodate
Issue 22181. It is merely the subset of those cases where there was
already a let-binding in place that made it easy to add the necesasry
type ascription.
(For unnamed intermediate `Box` values, one must go down a different
route; `Box::new` is the option that maximizes portability, but has
potential inefficiency depending on whether the call is inlined.)
----
There is one place worth note, `run-pass/coerce-match.rs`, where I
used an ugly form of `Box<_>` type ascription where I would have
preferred to use `Box::new` to accommodate overloaded-`box`. I
deliberately did not use `Box::new` here, because that is already done
in coerce-match-calls.rs.

Precursor for overloaded-`box` and placement-`in`; see Issue 22181.
It (1.) is invariant, (2.) must strictly outlive the arena itself,
(3.) constrains the inputs to the arena so that their borrows must
also strictly outlive the arena itself.
This implies that, for now, one can no longer have cross-references
between data allocated via the same `Arena` (even when the data is not
subject to the Drop Check rule). Instead one must carry multiple
`Arena` instances, or (more commonly), use one or more `TypedArena`
instances with enums encoding the different variants of allocated
data.
Port `core::ptr::Unique` to have `PhantomData`. Add `PhantomData` to
`TypedArena` and `Vec` as well.
As a drive-by, switch `ptr::Unique` from a tuple-struct to a struct
with fields.
