The compiler guarantees that there are no other references to a unique pointer when it's passed by-value to a function.
The existence of the header and annihilator don't matter since it's not relevant to the call:
> For a call to the parent function, dependencies between memory references from before or after the call and from those during the call are “irrelevant” to the noalias keyword for the arguments and return value used in that call.
@graydon's tracing garbage collector stores the metadata outside of the boxes, so that won't be a problem. I'm unsure if updating the header while inside a function where it's marked as `noalias` would be a problem anyway since you never actually read or write to the header.

Simple patch series to fix up all the warnings a rustc compile is giving at the moment. It also fixes a NOTE in `to_bytes.rs` to remove the `to_bytes::iter_bytes_<N>` functions.
The way we deal with unreachable expressions in trans is pretty ad hoc,
but this at least doesn't make it worse, and eliminates the LLVM
assertion failure reported in #5741.
This adds a lint mode for detecting unnecessary allocations on the heap. This isn't super fancy, currently it only has two rules
1. For a function's arguments, if you allocate a `[~|@]str` literal, when the type of the argument is a `&str`, emit a warning.
2. For the same case, emit warnings for boxed vectors when slices are required.
After adding the lint, I rampaged through the libraries and removed all the unnecessary allocations I could find.
Currently, trait_info is a hashmap that allows a quick lookup of all
methods contained in a given trait, but we actually only use it to
lookup traits that contain a given method. Adjusting the map to support
the lookup we actually need gives a nice speed boost, reducing the time
required for the resolution step for librustc from ~2.6s to ~1.0s on my
box.
With this, the build is almost 100% warning free.
One more can be fixed after the next snapshot, and there's one other that I filed an issue about already.
r? @nikomatsakis Impls can implement either zero or one traits; this has been true
more or less since we removed classes. So I got rid of the comments
saying "we should support multiple traits" and changed the code to
make it clear that we don't. This is just cleanup, and doesn't break
any existing tests.

`str::from_slice` and `vec::from_slice` are changed to `str::to_owned` and `vec::to_owned`. (#6389)
Replace `at_vec::from_owned` and `at_vec::from_slice` with `at_vec::to_managed_consume` and `at_vec::to_managed`.
Replace all instances of #[auto_*code] with the appropriate #[deriving] attribute
and remove the majority of the actual auto_* code, leaving stubs to refer the user to
the new syntax.
Also, moves the useful contents of auto_encode.rs to more appropriate spots: tests and comments to deriving/encodable.rs, and the ExtCtxtMethods trait to build.rs (unused so far, but the method syntax might be nicer than using the mk_* fns in many instances).

fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.
When trying to import nonexistent items from existing modules, specify that
that is what happened, rather than just reporting "unresolved name".
Ideally the error would be reported on the span of the import... but I do not see a way to get a span there. Help appreciated 😄
This pull request adds 4 atomic intrinsics to the compiler, in preparation for #5042.
* `atomic_load(src: &int) -> int` performs an atomic sequentially consistent load.
* `atomic_load_acq(src: &int) -> int` performs an atomic acquiring load.
* `atomic_store(dst: &mut int, val: int)` performs an atomic sequentially consistent store.
* `atomic_store_rel(dst: &mut int, val: int)` performs an atomic releasing store.

Every unresolved import is reported. An additional error message isn't useful
and obscures (imo) the real errors: I need to take it into account when
looking at the error count.
The default versions (atomic_load and atomic_store) are sequentially consistent.
The atomic_load_acq intrinsic acquires as described in [1].
The atomic_store_rel intrinsic releases as described in [1].

r? @nikomatsakis In #6319, several people mentioned they ran into a "computing
fictitious type" ICE in trans. This turns out to be because some
of my recent changes to typeck::check::_match resulted in type errors
getting reported with ty_err as the expected type, which meant the errors
were suppressed, and typechecking incorrectly succeeded (since the errors
weren't recorded).
Changed the error messages in these cases not to use an expected type at all,
rather, printing out a string describing the type that was expected (which is
what the code originally did). The result is a bit repetitive and the
proliferation of error-reporting functions in typeck::infer is a bit annoying,
but I thought it was important to fix this now; more cleanup can happen later.

**Caveat**: With the current commit, this check only works for `match`s, the checks (incorrectly) do not run for patterns in `let`s, and invalid/unsafe code compiles.
I don't know how to fix this, I experimented with some things to try to make let patterns and match patterns run on the same code (since this would presumably fix many of the other unsoundness issues of let-patterns, e.g. #6225), but I don't understand enough of the code. (I think I heard someone talking about a fix for `let` being in progress?)
Fixes#6344 and #6341.
Closes#6183.
The first commit changes the compiler's method of treating a `for` loop, and all the remaining commits are just dealing with the fallout.
The biggest fallout was the `IterBytes` trait, although it's really a whole lot nicer now because all of the `iter_bytes_XX` methods are just and-ed together. Sadly there was a huge amount of stuff that's `cfg(stage0)` gated, but whoever lands the next snapshot is going to have a lot of fun deleting all this code!
&str can be turned into @~str on demand, using to_owned(), so for
strings, we can create a specialized interner that accepts &str for
intern() and find() but stores and returns @~str.
This improves error reporting for the following class of imports:
```rust
use foo::bar;
```
Where foo, the topmost module, is unresolved. It now results in:
```text
/tmp/foo.rs:1:4: 1:7 error: unresolved import. perhapsyou forgot an 'extern mod foo'?
/tmp/foo.rs:1 use foo::bar;
^~~
/tmp/foo.rs:1:4: 1:12 error: failed to resolve import: foo::bar
/tmp/foo.rs:1 use foo::bar;
^~~~~~~~
error: failed to resolve imports
error: aborting due to 3 previous errors
```
This is the first of a series of changes I plan on making to unresolved name error messages.
Use a bitset to represent built-in bounds. There are several places in the language where only builtin bounds (aka kinds) will be accepted, e.g. on closures, destructor type parameters perhaps, and on trait types.
r? @brson
Fix#6355 and #6272---we were not giving the correct index to the derefs that occur as part of the rooting process, resulting in extra copies and generally bogus behavior. Haven't quite produced the right test for this, but I thought I'd push the fix in the meantime. Test will follow shortly.
r? @graydon
Adds an `uninit` intrinsic.
It's just an empty function, so llvm optimizes it down to nothing.
I changed all of the `init` intrinsic usages to `uninit` where it seemed appropriate to.

Hi there,
Really enjoying Rust. Noticed a few typos so I searched around for a few more--here's some fixes.
Ran `make check` and got `summary of 24 test runs: 4868 passed; 0 failed; 330 ignored`.
Thanks!
Sean
