This implements RFC 1624, tracking issue #37339.
- `FnCtxt` (in typeck) gets a stack of `LoopCtxt`s, which store the
currently deduced type of that loop, the desired type, and a list of
break expressions currently seen. `loop` loops get a fresh type
variable as their initial type (this logic is stolen from that for
arrays). `while` loops get `()`.
- `break {expr}` looks up the broken loop, and unifies the type of
`expr` with the type of the loop.
- `break` with no expr unifies the loop's type with `()`.
- When building MIR, `loop` loops no longer construct a `()` value at
termination of the loop; rather, the `break` expression assigns the
result of the loop. `while` loops are unchanged.
- `break` respects contexts in which expressions may not end with braced
blocks. That is, `while break { break-value } { while-body }` is
illegal; this preserves backwards compatibility.
- The RFC did not make it clear, but I chose to make `break ()` inside
of a `while` loop illegal, just in case we wanted to do anything with
that design space in the future.
This is my first time dealing with this part of rustc so I'm sure
there's plenty of problems to pick on here ^_^
Point to type argument span when used as trait
Given the following code:
``` rust
struct Foo<T: Clone>(T);
use std::ops::Add;
impl<T: Clone, Add> Add for Foo<T> {
type Output = usize;
fn add(self, rhs: Self) -> Self::Output {
unimplemented!();
}
}
```
present the following output:
``` nocode
error[E0404]: `Add` is not a trait
--> file3.rs:5:21
|
5 | impl<T: Clone, Add> Add for Okok<T> {
| --- ^^^ expected trait, found type parameter
| |
| type parameter defined here
```
Fixes#35987.

Most of the Rust community agrees that the vec! macro is clearer when
called using square brackets [] instead of regular brackets (). Most of
these ocurrences are from before macros allowed using different types of
brackets.
There is one left unchanged in a pretty-print test, as the pretty
printer still wants it to have regular brackets.
`opaque::Decoder::read_str` is very hot within `rustc` due to its use in
the reading of crate metadata, and it currently returns a `String`. This
commit changes it to instead return a `Cow<str>`, which avoids a heap
allocation.
This change reduces the number of calls to `malloc` by almost 10% in
some benchmarks.
This is a [breaking-change] to libserialize.
This applies the HIR changes from the previous commits to the AST, and
is thus a syntax-[breaking-change]
Renames `PatKind::Vec` to `PatKind::Slice`, since these are called slice
patterns, not vec patterns. Renames `TyKind::Vec`, which represents the
type `[T]`, to `TyKind::Slice`. Renames `TyKind::FixedLengthVec` to
`TyKind::Array`.
I am using `ThinAttributes` rather than a vector for attributes
attached to generics, since I expect almost all lifetime and types
parameters to not carry any attributes.
Refactor `PathListItem`s
This refactors away variant `Mod` of `ast::PathListItemKind` and refactors the remaining variant `Ident` to a struct `ast::PathListItem_`.
Simplify the macro hygiene algorithm
This PR removes renaming from the hygiene algorithm and treats differently marked identifiers as unequal.
This change makes the scope of identifiers in `macro_rules!` items empty. That is, identifiers in `macro_rules!` definitions do not inherit any semantics from the `macro_rules!`'s scope.
Since `macro_rules!` macros are items, the scope of their identifiers "should" be the same as that of other items; in particular, the scope should contain only items. Since all items are unhygienic today, this would mean the scope should be empty.
However, the scope of an identifier in a `macro_rules!` statement today is the scope that the identifier would have if it replaced the `macro_rules!` (excluding anything unhygienic, i.e. locals only).
To continue to support this, this PR tracks the scope of each `macro_rules!` and uses it in `resolve` to ensure that an identifier expanded from a `macro_rules!` gets a chance to resolve to the locals in the `macro_rules!`'s scope.
This PR is a pure refactoring. After this PR,
- `syntax::ext::expand` is much simpler.
- We can expand macros in any order without causing problems for hygiene (needed for macro modularization).
- We can deprecate or remove today's `macro_rules!` scope easily.
- Expansion performance improves by 25%, post-expansion memory usage decreases by ~5%.
- Expanding a block is no longer quadratic in the number of `let` statements (fixes#10607).
r? @nrc
To allow these braced macro invocation, this PR removes the optional expression from `ast::Block` and instead uses a `StmtKind::Expr` at the end of the statement list.
Currently, braced macro invocations in blocks can expand into statements (and items) except when they are last in a block, in which case they can only expand into expressions.
For example,
```rust
macro_rules! make_stmt {
() => { let x = 0; }
}
fn f() {
make_stmt! {} //< This is OK...
let x = 0; //< ... unless this line is commented out.
}
```
Fixes#34418.

(Only breaking because ast::TokenTree is now tokenstream::TokenTree.)
This pull request refactors TokenTrees into their own file as src/libsyntax/tokenstream.rs, moving them out of src/libsyntax/ast.rs, in order to prepare for an accompanying TokenStream implementation (per RFC 1566).
