Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/40180
This calling convention can be used for definining interrupt handlers on
32-bit and 64-bit x86 targets. The compiler then uses `iret` instead of
`ret` for returning and ensures that all registers are restored to their
original values.
Usage:
```
extern "x86-interrupt" fn handler(stack_frame: &ExceptionStackFrame) {…}
```
for interrupts and exceptions without error code and
```
extern "x86-interrupt" fn page_fault_handler(stack_frame: &ExceptionStackFrame,
error_code: u64) {…}
```
for exceptions that push an error code (e.g., page faults or general
protection faults). The programmer must ensure that the correct version
is used for each interrupt.
For more details see the [LLVM PR][1] and the corresponding [proposal][2].

[MIR] SwitchInt Everywhere
Something I've been meaning to do for a very long while. This PR essentially gets rid of 3 kinds of conditional branching and only keeps the most general one - `SwitchInt`. Primary benefits are such that dealing with MIR now does not involve dealing with 3 different ways to do conditional control flow. On the other hand, constructing a `SwitchInt` currently requires more code than what previously was necessary to build an equivalent `If` terminator. Something trivially "fixable" with some constructor methods somewhere (MIR needs stuff like that badly in general).
Some timings (tl;dr: slightly faster^1 (unexpected), but also uses slightly more memory at peak (expected)):
^1: Not sure if the speed benefits are because of LLVM liking the generated code better or the compiler itself getting compiled better. Either way, its a net benefit. The CORE and SYNTAX timings done for compilation without optimisation.

Emit DW_AT_main_subprogram
This changes rustc to emit DW_AT_main_subprogram on the "main" program.
This lets gdb suitably stop at the user's main in response to
"start" (rather than the library's main, which is what happens
currently).
Fixes#32620

Instead of directly creating a 'DIGlobalVariable', we now have to create
a 'DIGlobalVariableExpression' which itself contains a reference to a
'DIGlobalVariable'.
This is a straightforward change.
In the future, we should rename 'DIGlobalVariable' in the FFI
bindings, assuming we will only refer to 'DIGlobalVariableExpression'
and not 'DIGlobalVariable'.
LLVM Core C bindings provide this function for all the versions back to what we support (3.7), and
helps to avoid this unnecessary builder->function transition every time. Also a negative diff.
Remove not(stage0) from deny(warnings)
Historically this was done to accommodate bugs in lints, but there hasn't been a
bug in a lint since this feature was added which the warnings affected. Let's
completely purge warnings from all our stages by denying warnings in all stages.
This will also assist in tracking down `stage0` code to be removed whenever
we're updating the bootstrap compiler.
Improve naming style in rustllvm.
As per the LLVM style guide, use CamelCase for all locals and classes,
and camelCase for all non-FFI functions.
Also, make names of variables of commonly used types more consistent.
Fixes#38688.

Fixes#38688.
Since discriminants do not support i128 yet, lets just calculate the boundaries within the 64 bits
that are supported. This also avoids an issue with bootstrapping on 32 bit systems due to #38727.
Fixes rebase fallout, makes code correct in presence of 128-bit constants.
This commit includes manual merge conflict resolution changes from a rebase by @est31.
This commit introduces 128-bit integers. Stage 2 builds and produces a working compiler which
understands and supports 128-bit integers throughout.
The general strategy used is to have rustc_i128 module which provides aliases for iu128, equal to
iu64 in stage9 and iu128 later. Since nowhere in rustc we rely on large numbers being supported,
this strategy is good enough to get past the first bootstrap stages to end up with a fully working
128-bit capable compiler.
In order for this strategy to work, number of locations had to be changed to use associated
max_value/min_value instead of MAX/MIN constants as well as the min_value (or was it max_value?)
had to be changed to use xor instead of shift so both 64-bit and 128-bit based consteval works
(former not necessarily producing the right results in stage1).

PTX support, take 2
- You can generate PTX using `--emit=asm` and the right (custom) target. Which
then you can run on a NVIDIA GPU.
- You can compile `core` to PTX. [Xargo] also works and it can compile some
other crates like `collections` (but I doubt all of those make sense on a GPU)
[Xargo]: https://github.com/japaric/xargo
- You can create "global" functions, which can be "called" by the host, using
the `"ptx-kernel"` ABI, e.g. `extern "ptx-kernel" fn kernel() { .. }`. Every
other function is a "device" function and can only be called by the GPU.
- Intrinsics like `__syncthreads()` and `blockIdx.x` are available as
`"platform-intrinsics"`. These intrinsics are *not* in the `core` crate but
any Rust user can create "bindings" to them using an `extern
"platform-intrinsics"` block. See example at the end.
- Trying to emit PTX with `-g` (debuginfo); you get an LLVM error. But I don't
think PTX can contain debuginfo anyway so `-g` should be ignored and a warning
should be printed ("`-g` doesn't work with this target" or something).
- "Single source" support. You *can't* write a single source file that contains
both host and device code. I think that should be possible to implement that
outside the compiler using compiler plugins / build scripts.
- The equivalent to CUDA `__shared__` which it's used to declare memory that's
shared between the threads of the same block. This could be implemented using
attributes: `#[shared] static mut SCRATCH_MEMORY: [f32; 64]` but hasn't been
implemented yet.
- Built-in targets. This PR doesn't add targets to the compiler just yet but one
can create custom targets to be able to emit PTX code (see the example at the
end). The idea is to have people experiment with this feature before
committing to it (built-in targets are "insta-stable")
- All functions must be "inlined". IOW, the `.rlib` must always contain the LLVM
bitcode of all the functions of the crate it was produced from. Otherwise, you
end with "undefined references" in the final PTX code but you won't get *any*
linker error because no linker is involved. IOW, you'll hit a runtime error
when loading the PTX into the GPU. The workaround is to use `#[inline]` on
non-generic functions and to never use `#[inline(never)]` but this may not
always be possible because e.g. you could be relying on third party code.
- Should `--emit=asm` generate a `.ptx` file instead of a `.s` file?
TL;DR Use Xargo to turn a crate into a PTX module (a `.s` file). Then pass that
PTX module, as a string, to the GPU and run it.
The full code is in [this repository]. This section gives an overview of how to
run Rust code on a NVIDIA GPU.
[this repository]: https://github.com/japaric/cuda
- Create a custom target. Here's the 64-bit NVPTX target (NOTE: the comments
are not valid because this is supposed to be a JSON file; remove them before
you use this file):
``` js
// nvptx64-nvidia-cuda.json
{
"arch": "nvptx64", // matches LLVM
"cpu": "sm_20", // "oldest" compute capability supported by LLVM
"data-layout": "e-i64:64-v16:16-v32:32-n16:32:64",
"llvm-target": "nvptx64-nvidia-cuda",
"max-atomic-width": 0, // LLVM errors with any other value :-(
"os": "cuda", // matches LLVM
"panic-strategy": "abort",
"target-endian": "little",
"target-pointer-width": "64",
"target-vendor": "nvidia", // matches LLVM -- not required
}
```
(There's a 32-bit target specification in the linked repository)
- Write a kernel
``` rust
extern "platform-intrinsic" {
fn nvptx_block_dim_x() -> i32;
fn nvptx_block_idx_x() -> i32;
fn nvptx_thread_idx_x() -> i32;
}
/// Copies an array of `n` floating point numbers from `src` to `dst`
pub unsafe extern "ptx-kernel" fn memcpy(dst: *mut f32,
src: *const f32,
n: usize) {
let i = (nvptx_block_dim_x() as isize)
.wrapping_mul(nvptx_block_idx_x() as isize)
.wrapping_add(nvptx_thread_idx_x() as isize);
if (i as usize) < n {
*dst.offset(i) = *src.offset(i);
}
}
```

let h_a: Vec<f32> = /* create some random data */;
let h_b = vec![0.; N];
let d_a = driver::allocate(bytes)?;

> What has changed since #34195?
- `core` now can be compiled into PTX. Which makes it very easy to turn `no_std`
crates into "kernels" with the help of Xargo.
- There's now a way, the `"ptx-kernel"` ABI, to generate "global" functions. The
old PR required a manual step (it was hack) to "convert" "device" functions
into "global" functions. (Only "global" functions can be launched by the host)
- Everything is unstable. There are not "insta stable" built-in targets this
time (\*). The users have to use a custom target to experiment with this
feature. Also, PTX instrinsics, like `__syncthreads` and `blockIdx.x`, are now
implemented as `"platform-intrinsics"` so they no longer live in the `core`
crate.
(\*) I'd actually like to have in-tree targets because that makes this target
more discoverable, removes the need to lug around .json files, etc.
However, bundling a target with the compiler immediately puts it in the path
towards stabilization. Which gives us just two cycles to find and fix any
problem with the target specification. Afterwards, it becomes hard to tweak
the specification because that could be a breaking change.
A possible solution could be "unstable built-in targets". Basically, to use an
unstable target, you'll have to also pass `-Z unstable-options` to the compiler.
And unstable targets, being unstable, wouldn't be available on stable.
> Why should this be merged?
- To let people experiment with the feature out of tree. Having easy access to
the feature (in every nightly) allows this. I also think that, as it is, it
should be possible to start prototyping type-safe single source support using
build scripts, macros and/or plugins.
- It's a straightforward implementation. No different that adding support for
any other architecture.
- `--emit=asm --target=nvptx64-nvidia-cuda` can be used to turn a crate
into a PTX module (a `.s` file).
- intrinsics like `__syncthreads` and `blockIdx.x` are exposed as
`"platform-intrinsics"`.
- "cabi" has been implemented for the nvptx and nvptx64 architectures.
i.e. `extern "C"` works.
- a new ABI, `"ptx-kernel"`. That can be used to generate "global"
functions. Example: `extern "ptx-kernel" fn kernel() { .. }`. All
other functions are "device" functions.

Someone wants to attempt launching some Rust [into space](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/5h76oa/c_interop/) but their platform is based on the SPARCv8 architecture. Let's not block them by enabling LLVM's SPARC backend.
Something very important that they'll also need is the "cabi" stuff as they'll be embedding some Rust code into a bigger C application (i.e. heavy use of `extern "C"`). The question there is what name(s) should we use for "target_arch" as the "cabi" implementation [varies according to that parameter](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.13.0/src/librustc_trans/abi.rs#L498-L523).
AFAICT, SPARCv8 is a 32-bit architecture and SPARCv9 is a 64-bit architecture. And, LLVM uses `sparc`, `sparcv9` and `sparcel` for [the architecture triple](ac1c94226e/include/llvm/ADT/Triple.h (L67-L69)) so perhaps we should use `target_arch = "sparc"` (32-bit) and `target_arch = "sparcv9"` (64-bit) as well.
r? @alexcrichton This PR only enables this LLVM backend when rustbuild is used. Do I also need to implement this for the old Makefile-based build system? Or are all our nightlies now being generated using rustbuild?

Add new #[target_feature = "..."] attribute.
This commit adds a new attribute that instructs the compiler to emit
target specific code for a single function. For example, the following
function is permitted to use instructions that are part of SSE 4.2:
#[target_feature = "+sse4.2"]
fn foo() { ... }
In particular, use of this attribute does not require setting the
-C target-feature or -C target-cpu options on rustc.
This attribute does not have any protections built into it. For example,
nothing stops one from calling the above `foo` function on hosts without
SSE 4.2 support. Doing so may result in a SIGILL.
I've also expanded the x86 target feature whitelist.
In LLVM 4.0, this enum becomes an actual type-safe enum, which breaks
all of the interfaces. Introduce our own copy of the bitflags that we
can then safely convert to the LLVM one.
[LLVM 4.0] Don't assume llvm::StringRef is null terminated
StringRefs have a length and their contents are not usually null-terminated. The solution is to either copy the string data (in `rustc_llvm::diagnostic`) or take the size into account (in LLVMRustPrintPasses).
I couldn't trigger a bug caused by this (apparently all the strings returned in practice are actually null-terminated) but this is more correct and more future-proof.
