LLVM doesn't really support reusing the same module to emit more than
one file. One bug this causes is that the IR is invalidated by the stack
coloring pass when emitting the first file, and then the IR verifier
complains by the time we try to emit the second file. Also, we get
different binaries with --emit=asm,link than with just --emit=link. In
some cases leading to segfaults.
Unfortunately, it seems that at this point in time, the most sensible
option to circumvent this problem is to just clone the whole llvm module
for the asm output if we need both, asm and obj file output.

This handles cases when the LLVM used isn't configured will the 'usual'
targets. Also, cases where LLVM is shared are also handled (ie with
`LD_LIBRARY_PATH` etc).
This commit is the standard API stabilization commit for the 1.6 release cycle.
The list of issues and APIs below have all been through their cycle-long FCP and
the libs team decisions are listed below
Stabilized APIs
* `Read::read_exact`
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof` (renamed from `UnexpectedEOF`)
* libcore -- this was a bit of a nuanced stabilization, the crate itself is now
marked as `#[stable]` and the methods appearing via traits for primitives like
`char` and `str` are now also marked as stable. Note that the extension traits
themeselves are marked as unstable as they're imported via the prelude. The
`try!` macro was also moved from the standard library into libcore to have the
same interface. Otherwise the functions all have copied stability from the
standard library now.

Corresponds directly to llvm's inline-threshold.
I want this so I can experiment out-of-tree with tweaking optimization settings, and this is the most important value that isn't exposed. I can't get it to work either via `-C llvm-args`.
cc @rust-lang/compiler
* Delete `sys::unix::{c, sync}` as these are now all folded into libc itself
* Update all references to use `libc` as a result.
* Update all references to the new flat namespace.
* Moves all windows bindings into sys::c
Note: for now, this change only affects `-windows-gnu` builds.
So why was this `libgcc` dylib dependency needed in the first place?
The stack unwinder needs to know about locations of unwind tables of all the modules loaded in the current process. The easiest portable way of achieving this is to have each module register itself with the unwinder when loaded into the process. All modules compiled by GCC do this by calling the __register_frame_info() in their startup code (that's `crtbegin.o` and `crtend.o`, which are automatically linked into any gcc output).
Another important piece is that there should be only one copy of the unwinder (and thus unwind tables registry) in the process. This pretty much means that the unwinder must be in a shared library (unless everything is statically linked).
Now, Rust compiler tries very hard to make sure that any given Rust crate appears in the final output just once. So if we link the unwinder statically to one of Rust's crates, everything should be fine.
Unfortunately, GCC startup objects are built under assumption that `libgcc` is the one true place for the unwind info registry, so I couldn't find any better way than to replace them. So out go `crtbegin`/`crtend`, in come `rsbegin`/`rsend`!
A side benefit of this change is that rustc is now more in control of the command line that goes to the linker, so we could stop using `gcc` as the linker driver and just invoke `ld` directly.

Since it isn't possible to disable linkage of just GCC startup objects, we now need logic for finding libc installation directory and copying the required startup files (e.g. crt2.o) to rustlib directory.
Bonus change: use the `-nodefaultlibs` flag on Windows, thus paving the way to direct linker invocation.
The escaped form isn't pretty, but this should be a very rare error.
Having a general binary-escaping string creation function might be a
good idea, though.
Closes#29122
libcore.rlib reduced from 19121 kiB to 15934 kiB - 20% win.
The librustc encoded AST is 9013500 bytes long - for the record, librustc consists of about 2254126 characters. Might be worth looking at.

This PR closes out #28716 and #28735 by making two changes to the compiler:
1. The `--emit` flag to the compiler now supports the ability to specify the output file name of a partuclar emit type. For example `--emit dep-info=bar.d,asm=foo.s,link` is now accepted.
2. The dep-info emission now emits a dummy target for all input file names to protect against deleted files.
paths, and construct paths for all definitions. Also, stop rewriting
DefIds for closures, and instead just load the closure data from
the original def-id, which may be in another crate.
This commit swaps the order of linking local native libraries and upstream
native libraries on the linker command line. Detail of bugs this can cause can
be found in #28595, and this change also invalidates the test case that was
added for #12446 which is now considered a bug because the downstream dependency
would need to declare that it depends on the native library somehow.
Closes#28595
Currently the compiler supports the ability to emit multiple output types as
part of one compilation (e.g. asm, LLVM IR, bytecode, link, dep-info, etc). It
does not, however, support the ability to customize the output filename for each
of these output types. The `-o` flag is ignored if multiple emit types are
specified (and the compiler emits a warning about this).
Normally this doesn't matter too much, but in the case of `dep-info` it can lead
to a number of problems (e.g. see #28716). By allowing customization of the
output filename for each emit type we're able to solve the problems in that
issue.
This commit adds support for the `--emit` option to the compiler to look like:
rustc foo.rs --emit dep-info=.deps/foo.d,link
This indicates that the `dep-info` output type will be placed at `.deps/foo.d`
and the `link` output type will otherwise be determined via the `--out-dir` and
`-o` flags.
Closes#28716
This patch basically adds a target option for omitting the `-nodefaultlibs` flag when invoking the linker. I am not sure if this is the correct or only way to approach this problem, so any feedback is welcome.
Motivation: I'm currently working on a Rust target specification for the [rumprun](/rumpkernel/rumprun) unikernel. rumprun is based on rump kernels and uses NetBSDs libc and drivers to provide a POSIXy environment. It provides its own linker wrapper that generates binaries which can be "baked" into a unikernel after configuration. Using `-nodefaultlibs` on the rumprun linker will prevent it from selecting the search paths for the rumprun libraries. My current target implementation for rumprun is here: gandro/rust@295744b2ee
Currently, only a target that `is_like_windows` will omit the `-nodefaultlibs` flag, but since rumprun is not like Windows otherwise, I think a separate flag makes more sense. This might be a breaking change for target specifications that have the `is_like_windows` option set to true. Such targets need to set `no_default_libraries` to false in order to restore the old behavior.
If set to false, `-nodefaultlibs` is not passed to the linker. This
was the default behavior on Windows, but it should be configurable
per target.
This is a [breaking-change] for target specifications that have
the `is_like_windows` option set to true. Such targets need to
set `no_default_libraries` to false in order to restore the old
behavior.
