When a uv_tcp_t is closed in libuv, it will still invoke the pending connect_cb,
and I thought that it would always call it with ECANCELED, but it turns out that
sometimes we'll get a different error code instead. Handle this case by checking
to see if the request's data is NULL and bail out if so (the timeout expired).
This adds a `TcpStream::connect_timeout` function in order to assist opening
connections with a timeout (cc #13523). There isn't really much design space for
this specific operation (unlike timing out normal blocking reads/writes), so I
am fairly confident that this is the correct interface for this function.
The function is marked #[experimental] because it takes a u64 timeout argument,
and the u64 type is likely to change in the future.

Exposing ctpop, ctlz, cttz and bswap as taking signed i8/i16/... is just
exposing the internal LLVM names pointlessly (LLVM doesn't have "signed
integers" or "unsigned integers", it just has sized integer types
with (un)signed *operations*).
These operations are semantically working with raw bytes, which the
unsigned types model better.
There are currently a number of return values from the std::comm methods, not
all of which are necessarily completely expressive:
Sender::try_send(t: T) -> bool
This method currently doesn't transmit back the data `t` if the send fails
due to the other end having disconnected. Additionally, this shares the name
of the synchronous try_send method, but it differs in semantics in that it
only has one failure case, not two (the buffer can never be full).
SyncSender::try_send(t: T) -> TrySendResult<T>
This method accurately conveys all possible information, but it uses a
custom type to the std::comm module with no convenience methods on it.
Additionally, if you want to inspect the result you're forced to import
something from `std::comm`.
SyncSender::send_opt(t: T) -> Option<T>
This method uses Some(T) as an "error value" and None as a "success value",
but almost all other uses of Option<T> have Some/None the other way
Receiver::try_recv(t: T) -> TryRecvResult<T>
Similarly to the synchronous try_send, this custom return type is lacking in
terms of usability (no convenience methods).
With this number of drawbacks in mind, I believed it was time to re-work the
return types of these methods. The new API for the comm module is:
Sender::send(t: T) -> ()
Sender::send_opt(t: T) -> Result<(), T>
SyncSender::send(t: T) -> ()
SyncSender::send_opt(t: T) -> Result<(), T>
SyncSender::try_send(t: T) -> Result<(), TrySendError<T>>
Receiver::recv() -> T
Receiver::recv_opt() -> Result<T, ()>
Receiver::try_recv() -> Result<T, TryRecvError>
The notable changes made are:
* Sender::try_send => Sender::send_opt. This renaming brings the semantics in
line with the SyncSender::send_opt method. An asychronous send only has one
failure case, unlike the synchronous try_send method which has two failure
cases (full/disconnected).
* Sender::send_opt returns the data back to the caller if the send is guaranteed
to fail. This method previously returned `bool`, but then it was unable to
retrieve the data if the data was guaranteed to fail to send. There is still a
race such that when `Ok(())` is returned the data could still fail to be
received, but that's inherent to an asynchronous channel.
* Result is now the basis of all return values. This not only adds lots of
convenience methods to all return values for free, but it also means that you
can inspect the return values with no extra imports (Ok/Err are in the
prelude). Additionally, it's now self documenting when something failed or not
because the return value has "Err" in the name.
Things I'm a little uneasy about:
* The methods send_opt and recv_opt are not returning options, but rather
results. I felt more strongly that Option was the wrong return type than the
_opt prefix was wrong, and I coudn't think of a much better name for these
methods. One possible way to think about them is to read the _opt suffix as
"optionally".
* Result<T, ()> is often better expressed as Option<T>. This is only applicable
to the recv_opt() method, but I thought it would be more consistent for
everything to return Result rather than one method returning an Option.
Despite my two reasons to feel uneasy, I feel much better about the consistency
in return values at this point, and I think the only real open question is if
there's a better suffix for {send,recv}_opt.

Few places where previous version of tidy script cannot find XXX:
* inside one-line comment preceding by a few spaces;
* inside multiline comments (now it finds it if multiline comment starts
on the same line with XXX).
Change occurences of XXX found by new tidy script.
The libuv fs wrappers are very thin wrappers around the syscalls they correspond
to, and a notable worrisome case is the write syscall. This syscall is not
guaranteed to write the entire buffer provided, so we may have to continue
calling uv_fs_write if a short write occurs.
Closes#13130

This is the final nail in the coffin for the crate map. The `start` function for
libgreen now has a new added parameter which is the event loop factory instead
of inferring it from the crate map. The two current valid values for this
parameter are `green::basic::event_loop` and `rustuv::event_loop`.
The compiler will no longer inject libgreen as the default runtime for rust
programs, this commit switches it over to libnative by default. Now that
libnative has baked for some time, it is ready enough to start getting more
serious usage as the default runtime for rustc generated binaries.
We've found that there isn't really a correct decision in choosing a 1:1 or M:N
runtime as a default for all applications, but it seems that a larger number of
programs today would work more reasonable with a native default rather than a
green default.
With this commit come a number of bugfixes:
* The main native task is now named "<main>"
* The main native task has the stack bounds set up properly
* #[no_uv] was renamed to #[no_start]
* The core-run-destroy test was rewritten for both libnative and libgreen and
one of the tests was modified to be more robust.
* The process-detach test was locked to libgreen because it uses signal handling
lint: add lint for use of a `~[T]`.
This is useless at the moment (since pretty much every crate uses
`~[]`), but should help avoid regressions once completely removed from a
crate.
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.

If a TTY fails to get initialized, it still needs to have uv_close invoked on
it. This fixes the problem by constructing the TtyWatcher struct before the call
to uv_tty_init. The struct has a destructor on it which will close the handle
properly.

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.
Commits for details. Highlights:
- `flate` returns `CVec<u8>` to save reallocating a whole new `&[u8]`
- a lot of `transmute`s removed outright or replaced with `as` (etc.)
This commit removes deriving(ToStr) in favor of deriving(Show), migrating all impls of ToStr to fmt::Show.
Most of the details can be found in the first commit message.
Closes#12477
The std::run module is a relic from a standard library long since past, and
there's not much use to having two modules to execute processes with where one
is slightly more convenient. This commit merges the two modules, moving lots of
functionality from std::run into std::io::process and then deleting
std::run.
New things you can find in std::io::process are:
* Process::new() now only takes prog/args
* Process::configure() takes a ProcessConfig
* Process::status() is the same as run::process_status
* Process::output() is the same as run::process_output
* I/O for spawned tasks is now defaulted to captured in pipes instead of ignored
* Process::kill() was added (plus an associated green/native implementation)
* Process::wait_with_output() is the same as the old finish_with_output()
* destroy() is now signal_exit()
* force_destroy() is now signal_kill()

This commit changes the ToStr trait to:
impl<T: fmt::Show> ToStr for T {
fn to_str(&self) -> ~str { format!("{}", *self) }
}
The ToStr trait has been on the chopping block for quite awhile now, and this is
the final nail in its coffin. The trait and the corresponding method are not
being removed as part of this commit, but rather any implementations of the
`ToStr` trait are being forbidden because of the generic impl. The new way to
get the `to_str()` method to work is to implement `fmt::Show`.
Formatting into a `&mut Writer` (as `format!` does) is much more efficient than
`ToStr` when building up large strings. The `ToStr` trait forces many
intermediate allocations to be made while the `fmt::Show` trait allows
incremental buildup in the same heap allocated buffer. Additionally, the
`fmt::Show` trait is much more extensible in terms of interoperation with other
`Writer` instances and in more situations. By design the `ToStr` trait requires
at least one allocation whereas the `fmt::Show` trait does not require any
allocations.

The details can be found in the comments I added to the test, but the gist of it
is that capturing output injects rescheduling a green task on failure, which
wasn't desired for the test in question.
cc #12340
- adds a `LockGuard` type returned by `.lock` and `.trylock` that unlocks the mutex in the destructor
- renames `mutex::Mutex` to `StaticNativeMutex`
- adds a `NativeMutex` type with a destructor
- removes `LittleLock`
- adds `#[must_use]` to `sync::mutex::Guard` to remind people to use it
Any single-threaded task benchmark will spend a good chunk of time in `kqueue()` on osx and `epoll()` on linux, and the reason for this is that each time a task is terminated it will hit the syscall. When a task terminates, it context switches back to the scheduler thread, and the scheduler thread falls out of `run_sched_once` whenever it figures out that it did some work.
If we know that `epoll()` will return nothing, then we can continue to do work locally (only while there's work to be done). We must fall back to `epoll()` whenever there's active I/O in order to check whether it's ready or not, but without that (which is largely the case in benchmarks), we can prevent the costly syscall and can get a nice speedup.
I've separated the commits into preparation for this change and then the change itself, the last commit message has more details.
