A major discoverability issue with rustdoc is that all crates have their
documentation built in isolation, so it's difficult when looking at the
documentation for libstd to learn that there's a libcollections crate with a
HashMap in it.
This commit moves rustdoc a little closer to improving the multiple crate
experience. This unifies all search indexes for all crates into one file so all
pages share the same search index. This allows searching to work across crates
in the same documentation directory (as the standard distribution is currently
built).
This strategy involves updating a shared file amongst many rustdoc processes, so
I implemented a simple file locking API for handling synchronization for updates
to the shared files.

I ignored AtomicU64 methods on MIPS target
because libgcc doesn't implement MIPS32 64-bit atomic operations.
Otherwise it would cause link failure.
By the way, the patched LLVM doesn't have MIPS split stack anymore.
Should I file an issue about that?
This is something that is plausibly useful, and is provided by libuv. This is
not currently surfaced as part of the `TcpStream` type, but it may possibly
appear in the future. For now only the raw functionality is provided through the
Rtio objects.

Using nanosleep() allows us to gracefully recover from EINTR because on error it
fills in the second parameter with the remaining time to sleep.

There's a lot of these types in the compiler libraries, and a few of the
older or private stdlib ones. Some types are obviously meant to be
public, others not so much.
This commit splits the file implementation into file_unix and file_win32. The
two implementations have diverged to the point that they share almost 0 code at
this point, so it's easier to maintain as separate files.
The other major change accompanied with this commit is that file::open is no
longer based on libc's open function on windows, but rather windows's CreateFile
function. This fixes dealing with binary files on windows (test added in
previous commit).
This also changes the read/write functions to use ReadFile and WriteFile instead
of libc's read/write.
Closes#12406
* Implementation of pipe_win32 filled out for libnative
* Reorganize pipes to be clone-able
* Fix a few file descriptor leaks on error
* Factor out some common code into shared functions
* Make use of the if_ok!() macro for less indentation
Closes#11201
This is part of the overall strategy I would like to take when approaching
issue #11165. The only two I/O objects that reasonably want to be "split" are
the network stream objects. Everything else can be "split" by just creating
another version.
The initial idea I had was the literally split the object into a reader and a
writer half, but that would just introduce lots of clutter with extra interfaces
that were a little unnnecssary, or it would return a ~Reader and a ~Writer which
means you couldn't access things like the remote peer name or local socket name.
The solution I found to be nicer was to just clone the stream itself. The clone
is just a clone of the handle, nothing fancy going on at the kernel level.
Conceptually I found this very easy to wrap my head around (everything else
supports clone()), and it solved the "split" problem at the same time.
The cloning support is pretty specific per platform/lib combination:
* native/win32 - uses some specific WSA apis to clone the SOCKET handle
* native/unix - uses dup() to get another file descriptor
* green/all - This is where things get interesting. When we support full clones
of a handle, this implies that we're allowing simultaneous writes
and reads to happen. It turns out that libuv doesn't support two
simultaneous reads or writes of the same object. It does support
*one* read and *one* write at the same time, however. Some extra
infrastructure was added to just block concurrent writers/readers
until the previous read/write operation was completed.
I've added tests to the tcp/unix modules to make sure that this functionality is
supported everywhere.
Represents the minimum size of a thread's stack. As such, it's both
platform and architecture-specific.
I put it under posix01 even though it predates POSIX.1-2001 by some
years. I believe it was first formalized in SUSv2. I doubt anyone
cares, though.
This is just an initial implementation and does not yet fully replace `~[T]`. A generic initialization syntax for containers is missing, and the slice functionality needs to be reworked to make auto-slicing unnecessary.
Traits for supporting indexing properly are also required. This also needs to be fixed to make ring buffers as easy to use as vectors.
The tests and documentation for `~[T]` can be ported over to this type when it is removed. I don't really expect DST to happen for vectors as having both `~[T]` and `Vec<T>` is overcomplicated and changing the slice representation to 3 words is not at all appealing. Unlike with traits, it's possible (and easy) to implement `RcSlice<T>` and `GcSlice<T>` without compiler help.
Native timers are a much hairier thing to deal with than green timers due to the
interface that we would like to expose (both a blocking sleep() and a
channel-based interface). I ended up implementing timers in three different ways
for the various platforms that we supports.
In all three of the implementations, there is a worker thread which does send()s
on channels for timers. This worker thread is initialized once and then
communicated to in a platform-specific manner, but there's always a shared
channel available for sending messages to the worker thread.
* Windows - I decided to use windows kernel timer objects via
CreateWaitableTimer and SetWaitableTimer in order to provide sleeping
capabilities. The worker thread blocks via WaitForMultipleObjects where one of
the objects is an event that is used to wake up the helper thread (which then
drains the incoming message channel for requests).
* Linux/(Android?) - These have the ideal interface for implementing timers,
timerfd_create. Each timer corresponds to a timerfd, and the helper thread
uses epoll to wait for all active timers and then send() for the next one that
wakes up. The tricky part in this implementation is updating a timerfd, but
see the implementation for the fun details
* OSX/FreeBSD - These obviously don't have the windows APIs, and sadly don't
have the timerfd api available to them, so I have thrown together a solution
which uses select() plus a timeout in order to ad-hoc-ly implement a timer
solution for threads. The implementation is backed by a sorted array of timers
which need to fire. As I said, this is an ad-hoc solution which is certainly
not accurate timing-wise. I have done this implementation due to the lack of
other primitives to provide an implementation, and I've done it the best that
I could, but I'm sure that there's room for improvement.
I'm pretty happy with how these implementations turned out. In theory we could
drop the timerfd implementation and have linux use the select() + timeout
implementation, but it's so inaccurate that I would much rather continue to use
timerfd rather than my ad-hoc select() implementation.
The only change that I would make to the API in general is to have a generic
sleep() method on an IoFactory which doesn't require allocating a Timer object.
For everything but windows it's super-cheap to request a blocking sleep for a
set amount of time, and it's probably worth it to provide a sleep() which
doesn't do something like allocate a file descriptor on linux.
The `malloc` family of functions may return a null pointer for a
zero-size allocation, which should not be interpreted as an
out-of-memory error.
If the implementation does not return a null pointer, then handling
this will result in memory savings for zero-size types.
This also switches some code to `malloc_raw` in order to maintain a
centralized point for handling out-of-memory in `rt::global_heap`.
Closes#11634
Currently, we have c_void defined to be represented as an empty struct,
but LLVM expects C's void* to be represented as i8*. That means we
currently generate code in which LLVM doesn't recognize malloc() and
free() and can't apply certain optimization that would remove calls to
those functions.
I personally do not have huge amounts of experience in this area, so there's likely a thing or two wrong around the edges. I tried to just copy what libuv is doing as closely as possible with a few tweaks in a few places, but all of the `std::io::net::udp` tests are now run in both native and green settings so the published functionality is all being tested.
Right now on linux, an empty executable with LTO still depends on librt becaues
of the clock_gettime function in rust_builtin.o, but this commit moves this
dependency into a rust function which is subject to elimination via LTO.
At the same time, this also drops libstd's dependency on librt on unices that
are not OSX because the library is only used by extra::time (and now the
dependency is listed in that module instead).
This implements a fair amount of the unimpl() functionality in io::native
relating to filesystem operations. I've also modified all io::fs tests to run in
both a native and uv environment (so everything is actually tested).
There are a two bits of remaining functionality which I was unable to get
working:
* change_file_times on windows
* lstat on windows
I think that change_file_times may just need a better interface, but lstat has a
large implementation in libuv which I didn't want to tackle trying to copy.
These two attributes are no longer useful now that Rust has decided to leave
segmented stacks behind. It is assumed that the rust task's stack is always
large enough to make an FFI call (due to the stack being very large).
There's always the case of stack overflow, however, to consider. This does not
change the behavior of stack overflow in Rust. This is still normally triggered
by the __morestack function and aborts the whole process.
C stack overflow will continue to corrupt the stack, however (as it did before
this commit as well). The future improvement of a guard page at the end of every
rust stack is still unimplemented and is intended to be the mechanism through
which we attempt to detect C stack overflow.

This binds to the appropriate pthreads_* and Windows specific functions
and calls them from Rust. This allows for removal of the C++ support
code for threads.
Fixes#10162
This adds bindings to the remaining functions provided by libuv, all of which
are useful operations on files which need to get exposed somehow.
Some highlights:
* Dropped `FileReader` and `FileWriter` and `FileStream` for one `File` type
* Moved all file-related methods to be static methods under `File`
* All directory related methods are still top-level functions
* Created `io::FilePermission` types (backed by u32) that are what you'd expect
* Created `io::FileType` and refactored `FileStat` to use FileType and
FilePermission
* Removed the expanding matrix of `FileMode` operations. The mode of reading a
file will not have the O_CREAT flag, but a write mode will always have the
O_CREAT flag.
