Remove the linker_private and linker_private_weak linkage attributes,
they have been superseded by private and private_weak and have been
removed in upstream LLVM in commit r203866.
It appears that the --as-needed flag to linkers will not pull in a dynamic library unless it satisfies a non weak undefined symbol. The linkage1 test was creating a dynamic library where it was only used for a weak-symbol as part of an executable, so the dynamic library was getting discarded.
This commit adds another symbol to the library which satisfies a strong undefined symbol, so the library is pulled in to resolve the weak reference.
The pretty printer constitues an enormous amount of code, there's no reason for
it to be generic. This just least to a huge amount of metadata which isn't
necessary. Instead, this change migrates the pretty printer to using a trait
object instead.

This takes the time for `rustc libstd/lib.rs -Z ast-json-noexpand >
file.json` from 9.0s to 3.5s (~0.5s spent parsing etc.) and `-Z
ast-json` from 11s to 5s (~1.5s spent parsing and expanding).
This is adequate because when a function has a type that isn't caught here,
that is, it has a single argument, but it *isn't* `&mut BenchHarness`, it
errors later on with:
error: mismatched types: expected `fn(&mut test::BenchHarness)` but found
`fn(int)` (expected &-ptr but found int)
which I consider acceptable.
Closes#12997
This adds lots of docs to the atomics module. Two of the examples
are using the future atomics API and are ignored temporarily.
I discovered a bug in the way AtomicBool's fetch_nand method is
implemented and fixed it by using the correct value for `true`.
I also fixed the implementation of AcqRel fences (it was only doing
a release barrier), and made a "relaxed" fence a failure.
This PR enables the use of mutable slices in *mutable* static items. The work was started by @xales and I added a follow-up commit that moves the *immutable* restriction to the recently added `check_static`
Closes#11411
its a common (yet easily fixable) error to just forget parens at the end of getter-like methods without any arguments.
The current error message for that case asks for an anonymous function, this patch adds a note asking for either an anonymous function, or for trailing parens.
This is my first contribution! do i need to do anything else?
