Currently `TypedArena` allocates its first chunk, which is usually 4096
bytes, as soon as it is created. If no allocations are ever made from
the arena then this allocation (and the corresponding deallocation) is
wasted effort.
This commit changes `TypedArena` so it doesn't allocate the first chunk
until the first allocation is made.
This change speeds up rustc by a non-trivial amount because rustc uses
`TypedArena` heavily: compilation speed (producing debug builds) on
several of the rustc-benchmarks increases by 1.02--1.06x. The change
should never cause a slow-down because the hot `alloc` function is
unchanged. It does increase the size of `TypedArena` by one `usize`
field, however.
The commit also fixes some out-of-date comments.
mk: add a all-no-docs target to build everything except docs
This makes things slightly more efficient for Debian's auto-builders where the
docs can be built on just one architecture, and distributed to users of all
other architectures as well.
Fix overflow checking in unsigned pow()
The pow() method for unsigned integers produced 0 instead of trapping overflow for certain inputs. Calls such as 2u32.pow(1024) produced 0 when they should trap an overflow. This also adds tests for the correctly handling overflow in unsigned pow().
This was previously fixed for signed integers in #28248, but it seems unsigned integers got missed that time.
For issue number #34913
this flag lets you pass a _single_ argument to the linker but can be
used _repeatedly_. For example, instead of using:
```
rustc -C link-args='-l bar' (..)
```
you could write
```
rustc -C link-arg='-l' -C link-arg='bar' (..)
```
This new flag can be used with RUSTFLAGS where `-C link-args` has
problems with "nested" spaces:
```
RUSTFLAGS='-C link-args="-Tlayout.ld -nostartfiles"'
```
This passes three arguments to rustc: `-C` `link-args="-Tlayout.ld` and
`-nostartfiles"` to `rustc`. That's not what we meant. But this does
what we want:
```
RUSTFLAGS='-C link-arg=-Tlayout.ld -C link-arg=-nostartfiles`
```

Optimize the parser's last token handling.
The parser currently makes a heap copy of the last token in four cases:
identifiers, paths, doc comments, and commas. The identifier and
interpolation cases are unused, and for doc comments and commas we only
need to record their presence, not their value.
This commit consolidates the last token handling and avoids the
unnecessary copies by replacing `last_token`, `last_token_eof`, and
`last_token_interpolated` with a new field `last_token_kind`. This
simplifies the parser slightly and speeds up parsing on some files by
3--4%.
* We never want to make guarantees about protecting against attacks.
* "True randomness" is not the right terminology to be using in this
context.
* There is significantly more nuance to the performance of SipHash than
"somewhat slow".
librustc_mir: Remove `&*x` when `x` has a reference type.
This introduces a new `InstCombine` pass for us to place such peephole
optimizations.

Remove data structure specialization for .zip() iterator
Go back on half the specialization, the part that changed the Zip
struct's fields themselves depending on the types of the iterators.
Previous PR: #33090
This means that the Zip iterator will always carry two usize fields,
which are sometimes unused. If a whole for loop using a .zip() iterator is
inlined, these are simply removed and have no effect.
The same improvement for Zip of for example slice iterators remain, and
they still optimize well. However, like when the specialization of zip
was merged, the compiler is still very sensistive to the exact context.
For example this code only autovectorizes if the function is used, not
if the code in zip_sum_i32 is inserted inline where it was called:
```rust
fn zip_sum_i32(xs: &[i32], ys: &[i32]) -> i32 {
let mut s = 0;
for (&x, &y) in xs.iter().zip(ys) {
s += x * y;
}
s
}
fn zipdot_i32_default_zip(b: &mut test::Bencher)
{
let xs = vec![1; 1024];
let ys = vec![1; 1024];
b.iter(|| {
zip_sum_i32(&xs, &ys)
})
}
```
Include a test that checks that `Zip<T, U>` is covariant w.r.t. T and U.
Fixes#35727
