The "hint" mechanism is essentially used as a workaround to compute
types for expressions which have not yet been type-checked. This
commit clarifies that usage, and limits the effects to the places
where it is currently necessary.
Fixes#26210.
This commit moves the IR files in the distribution, rust_try.ll,
rust_try_msvc_64.ll, and rust_try_msvc_32.ll into the compiler from the main
distribution. There's a few reasons for this change:
* LLVM changes its IR syntax from time to time, so it's very difficult to
have these files build across many LLVM versions simultaneously. We'll likely
want to retain this ability for quite some time into the future.
* The implementation of these files is closely tied to the compiler and runtime
itself, so it makes sense to fold it into a location which can do more
platform-specific checks for various implementation details (such as MSVC 32
vs 64-bit).
* This removes LLVM as a build-time dependency of the standard library. This may
end up becoming very useful if we move towards building the standard library
with Cargo.
In the immediate future, however, this commit should restore compatibility with
LLVM 3.5 and 3.6.
Currently you can hit a link error on MSVC by only referencing static items from
a crate (no functions for example) and then link to the crate statically (as all
Rust crates do 99% of the time). A detailed investigation can be found [on
github][details], but the tl;dr is that we need to stop applying dllimport so
aggressively.
This commit alters the application of dllimport on constants to only cases where
the crate the constant originated from will be linked as a dylib in some output
crate type. That way if we're just linking rlibs (like the motivation for this
issue) we won't use dllimport. For the compiler, however, (which has lots of
dylibs) we'll use dllimport.

This test attempts to exercise cyclic structure in much of `std::collections`
(as much as is possible; e.g. things like `EnumSet` and `BitVec` do not really support carrying references at all, so trying to represent cyclic structure within them dooes not really make sense.)
This work should land before we make future revisions to `dropck`; that is, I am attempting to catch potential regressions to cases where we supported cyclic structure circa Rust 1.2.

To be honest I'm not sure if this is the right fix (I haven't yet fully understood the code),
but it seems to work. I'll look closer at the code when I have some time, in the meantime if this
is the right fix it would be nice to get verification from someone who does understand the code 😄

This can fail on linux for various reasons, such as the /proc filesystem not
being mounted. There are already many cases where we can't set up stack guards,
so just don't worry about this case and communicate that no guard was enabled.
I've confirmed that this allows the compiler to run in a chroot without /proc
mounted.
Closes#22642
Fixes#26475
I'm not sure this is enough, really, but I'm not totally clear on what specific information would be valuable here. In the original issue, the Java page was pretty decent, but now I can't think of a different way to word it, and copying their prose is of course not acceptable.
thoughts @alexcrichton @aturon @aidanhs ?
eq_slice_() used to be a common implementation for two function that
both called it, but of those only eq_slice() is left, so we can as well
directly inline the code.

Adding new variants is annoying as one needs to modify all these places that **don't** handle the new variant.
I chose not to use `Display` as I don't think it is appropriate.
replacing references to `-1` as a `ast::NodeId` with `ast::DUMMY_NODE_ID`,
which seems like a better notation to use (it is currently also `-1`.
(AFAICT the code is not *relying* on the value `-1` anywhere, it
really just needed a dummy value for when the input is `None`.)
This is the landing page for all of io, so we should have more than just
a sentence here.
r? @alexcrichton and I know @brson has been caring a lot about landing page style docs lately.
(as much as is possible; e.g. things like `EnumSet` and `BitVec` do
not really support carrying references at all, so trying to represent
cyclic structure within them dooes not really make sense.)
This makes the primitive descriptions on the front page read properly
as descriptions of types and not of the associated modules.
Having the primitive and module docs derived from the same source
causes problems, primarily that they can't contain hyperlinks
cross-referencing each other.
This crates dedicated private modules in `std` to document the
primitive types, then for all primitives that have a corresponding
module, puts hyperlinks in moth the primitive docs and the module docs
cross-linking each other.
This should help clear up confusion when readers find themselves on
the wrong page.
This also removes all the duplicate `#[doc(primitive)]` tags in various places (especially core), so the core docs will no longer attempt to document the primitives for now. Seems like an acceptable tradeoff to get some cleanup for std.
So if a filemap's last byte is at position n in the codemap, then n+1 will not refer to any filemap, and the next filemap will begin an n+2.
This is useful for empty files, it means that every file (even empty ones) has a byte in the codemap.
Closes#23301, #26504
This commit ensures that the rustc thread does not leak a panic message whenever
a call to `fatal` happens. This already happens for the main rustc thread as
part of the `rustc_driver::monitor` function, but the compiler also spawns
threads for other operations like `-C codegen-units`, and sometimes errors are
emitted on these threads as well. To ensure that there's a consistent
error-handling experience across threads this unifies these two to never print
the panic message in the case of a normal and expected fatal error.
This should also fix the flaky `asm-src-loc-codegen-units.rs` test as the output
is sometimes garbled if diagnostics are printed while the panic message is also
being printed.
fix `configure`: allow both `--enable-debug` and `--disable-debuginfo` in one invocation.
This is my very local fix to allow one to be able to (1.) build `rustc` and (2.) run `make check` with internal debug-mode *assertions* turned on in the presence of bugs like #26447 and #26484 (both of which are solely caused by debuginfo and thus can be sidestepped via `--disable-debuginfo`).
This partially addresses #24416 (namely, it addresses the papercut outlined in the description of that ticket). But there are other issues mentioned in the comment thread that are not addressed here, so they should be separately addressed before closing that ticket, or separate bugs should be opened for them.
This fixes a couple of bugs visible on https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/marker/trait.Sync.html . For example:
* `impl<T> Sync for *const T` should read `impl<T> !Sync for *const T`
* `impl<T> !Sync for Weak<T>` should read `impl<T> !Sync for Weak<T> where T: ?Sized`
This does change a struct in librustdoc and it seems that almost everything there is marked public, so if librustdoc has stability guarantees that could be a problem. If it is, I'll find a way to rework the change to avoid modifying public structures.
