For types that are passed by value, we can't just cast the value to a
pointer, but have to use an alloca and copy the value there. This
handling is already present for all other arguments, but was missing
for "self".
Fixes#6682, #4850 and #4878
This commit won't be quite as useful until I implement RUST_PATH and
until we change `extern mod` to take a general string instead of
an identifier (#5682 and #6407).
With that said, now if you're using rustpkg and a program contains:
extern mod foo;
rustpkg will attempt to search for `foo`, so that you don't have to
provide a -L directory explicitly. In addition, rustpkg will
actually try to build and install `foo`, unless it's already
installed (specifically, I tested that `extern mod extra;` would
not cause it to try to find source for `extra` and compile it
again).
This is as per #5681.
Incidentally, I changed some driver code to infer the link name
from the crate link_meta attributes. If that change isn't ok, say
something. Also, I changed the addl_lib_search_paths field in the
session options to be an @mut ~[Path] so that it can be modified
after expansion but before later phases.
The `callee_id` in `ast::expr` in only used in a couple expression variants. This moves the `callee_id` into those branches to make it more clear when its should be used.
Also, it fixes a bug in a std::run test when there is a symlink in the path rust where was checked out.
This fixes#6745, which itself relates to #4202. Slightly ham-fisted -- feel particularly funny about using the typeck phase to gather the base -> impl mapping, and the separate code paths for traits vs. "real" bases feels like it could be avoided -- but it seems to work.
As always, open to suggestions if there's a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do.
@catamorphism r?
This is a better pipeline, both faster-running and produces faster code.
For some reason the `mergefunc` pass screws over resolve. I have no idea why though.
Closes#5090 by using the excellent new generic deriving code
Promotes the unreachable code attribute to a lint attribute (instead of always being a warning)
Fixes some edge cases when creating hashmaps/hashsets and also when consuming them. (fixes#5998)
Fix a laundry list of warnings involving unused imports that glutted
up compilation output. There are more, but there seems to be some
false positives (where 'remedy' appears to break the build), but this
particular set of fixes seems safe.

This refactors pass handling to use the argument names, so it can be used
in a similar manner to `opt`. This may be slightly less efficient than the
previous version, but it is much easier to maintain.
It also adds in the ability to specify a custom pipeline on the command
line, this overrides the normal passes, however. This should completely
close#2396.
Most of the relevant information can be found in the commit messages.
r? @brson - I just wanted to make sure the make changes aren't completely bogus
This would close#2400, #6517, and #6489 (although a run through incoming-full on linux would have to confirm the latter two)

Move the computation of what data is moved out of `liveness` and into `borrowck`. The resulting code is cleaner, since before we had a split distribution of responsibilities, and also this avoids having multiple implementations of the dataflow code. Liveness is still used to report warnings about useless writes. This will go away when we get the control-flow graph code landed (working on that).
Also adds borrow checker documentation.
Fixes#4384.
Required to support once fns and to properly fix closures (#2202).
First step to generalize our treatment of moves somewhat as well.
This way a cross-compiled rustc's answer to host_triple() is correct. The return
value of host_triple() reflects the actual host triple that the compiler was
build for, not the triple the compiler is being built on
Refactor the optimization passes to explicitly use the passes. This commit
just re-implements the same passes as were already being run.
It also adds an option (behind `-Z`) to run the LLVM lint pass on the
unoptimized IR.
Fix for #6575. In the trans phase, rustc emits code for a function parameter that goes completely unused in the event the return type of the function in question happens to be an immediate.
This patch modifies rustc & parts of rustrt to ensure that the vestigial parameter is no longer present in compiled code.
borrow checker and generalize what moves are allowed. Fixes a nasty
bug or two in the pattern move checking code. Unifies dataflow code
used for initialization and other things. First step towards
once fns. Everybody wins.
Fixes#4384. Fixes#4715. cc once fns (#2202), optimizing local moves (#5016).
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.
@nikomatsakis: r?
mentioned in #2625.
This change makes the module more oriented around
Process values instead of having to deal with process ids
directly.
Apart from issues mentioned in #2625, other changes include:
- Changing the naming to be more consistent - Process/process
is now used instead of a mixture of Program/program and
Process/process.
- More docs/tests.
Some io/scheduler related issues remain (mentioned in #2625).
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.
Fixes https://github.com/mozilla/rust/issues/6578 by merging the 3 different ways to build an AST into a single `AstBuilder` trait, creating a more uniform and briefer interface.
Also, converts the `ext_ctxt` trait-object to be a plain struct, as well as renaming it to `ExtCtxt`.
Seems to make expansion slightly faster for the normal case (e.g. `libcore` and `libstd`), but slower for `librustc` (slightly) and `libsyntax` (0.3s -> 0.8s! I'm investigating this, but I'd prefer this patch to land relatively quickly.).
`git blame` suggests maybe @graydon or @erickt are familiar with this area of the code. r?
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.
It uses the private field of TCB head to store stack limit. I tested on my Raspberry PI. A simple hello world program ran without any problem. However, for a more complex program, it segfaulted as #6231.
Closes#2647
This way it's much easier to add lints throughout compilation correctly, and
functions on impls can alter the way lints are emitted. This involved pretty much rewriting how lints are emitted. Beforehand, only items could alter the lint settings, so whenever a lint was added it had to be associated with whatever item id it was coming from. I removed this (possibly questionably) in favor of just specifying a span and a message when adding a lint. When lint checking comes around, it looks at all the lints and sees which node with attributes best encloses it and uses that level of linting. This means that all consumer code doesn't have to deal with what item things came from (especially because functions on impls aren't items). More details of this can be found in the code (and comments).
As a bonus, I managed to greatly simplify emission of lints in resolve.rs about unused imports. Now instead of it manually tracking what the lint level is, it's all moved over into the lint module (as is to be expected).
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.
