Prefer doc comments over `//`-comments in compiler
Doc comments are generally nicer: they show up in the documentation, they are shown in IDEs when you hover other mentions of items, etc. Thus it makes sense to use them instead of `//`-comments.
Improve generating Custom entry function
This commit is aimed at making compiler-generated entry functions (Basically just C `main` right now) more generic so other targets can do similar things for custom entry. This was initially implemented as part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100316.
Currently, this moves the entry function name and Call convention to the target spec.

Fix some misleading target feature aliases
This is the first half of a fix for #100752. It looks like these aliases were added in #78361 and slipped under the radar, as these features are not AVX512. These features _do_ add AVX512 instructions when used _in combination_ with AVX512F, but without AVX512F, these features still provide 128-bit and 256-bit vector instructions. A user might be mislead into thinking these features imply AVX512F (which is true of the actual AVX512 features). This PR allows using the names as defined by LLVM, which matches Intel documentation.
A future PR should change the `std::arch` intrinsics to use these names, and finally remove these aliases from rustc.

For the next commit, `FunctionCx::codegen_*_terminator` need to take a
`&mut Bx` instead of consuming a `Bx`. This triggers a cascade of
similar changes across multiple functions. The resulting code is more
concise and replaces many `&mut bx` expressions with `bx`.
Perform simple scalar replacement of aggregates (SROA) MIR opt
This is a re-open of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/85796
I copied the debuginfo implementation (first commit) from `@eddyb's` own SROA PR.
This pass replaces plain field accesses by simple locals when possible.
To be eligible, the replaced locals:
- must not be enums or unions;
- must not be used whole;
- must not have their address taken.
The storage and deinit statements are duplicated on each created local.

interpret: support for per-byte provenance
Also factors the provenance map into its own module.
The third commit does the same for the init mask. I can move it in a separate PR if you prefer.

The new implementation doesn't use weak lang items and instead changes
`#[alloc_error_handler]` to an attribute macro just like
`#[global_allocator]`.
The attribute will generate the `__rg_oom` function which is called by
the compiler-generated `__rust_alloc_error_handler`. If no `__rg_oom`
function is defined in any crate then the compiler shim will call
`__rdl_oom` in the alloc crate which will simply panic.
This also fixes link errors with `-C link-dead-code` with
`default_alloc_error_handler`: `__rg_oom` was previously defined in the
alloc crate and would attempt to reference the `oom` lang item, even if
it didn't exist. This worked as long as `__rg_oom` was excluded from
linking since it was not called.
This is a prerequisite for the stabilization of
`default_alloc_error_handler` (#102318).
Migrate rustc_codegen_gcc to SessionDiagnostics
As part of #100717 this pr migrates diagnostics to `SessionDiagnostics` for the `rustc_codegen_gcc` crate.

Move the cast_float_to_int fallback code to GCC
Now that we require at least LLVM 13, that codegen backend is always
using its intrinsic `fptosi.sat` and `fptoui.sat` conversions, so it
doesn't need the manual implementation. However, the GCC backend still
needs it, so we can move all of that code down there.
interpret: make read-pointer-as-bytes a CTFE-only error with extra information
Next step in the reaction to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/99923. Also teaches Miri to implicitly strip provenance in more situations when transmuting pointers to integers, which fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/2456.
Pointer-to-int transmutation during CTFE now produces a message like this:
```
= help: this code performed an operation that depends on the underlying bytes representing a pointer
= help: the absolute address of a pointer is not known at compile-time, so such operations are not supported
```

Add pointer masking convenience functions
This PR adds the following public API:
```rust
impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
fn mask(self, mask: usize) -> *const T;
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
fn mask(self, mask: usize) -> *const T;
}
// mod intrinsics
fn mask<T>(ptr: *const T, mask: usize) -> *const T
```
This is equivalent to `ptr.map_addr(|a| a & mask)` but also uses a cool llvm intrinsic.

Currently they try to be very precise. But they are wrong, i.e. they
don't match what's happening in the loop below. This code isn't hot
enough for it to matter that much.
Because `PassMode::Cast` is by far the largest variant, but is
relatively rare.
This requires making `PassMode` not impl `Copy`, and `Clone` is no
longer necessary. This causes lots of sigil adjusting, but nothing very
notable.
Now that we require at least LLVM 13, that codegen backend is always
using its intrinsic `fptosi.sat` and `fptoui.sat` conversions, so it
doesn't need the manual implementation. However, the GCC backend still
needs it, so we can move all of that code down there.
This avoids monomorphizing all linker code for each codegen backend and
will allow passing in extra information to the archive builder from the
codegen backend.
Enable raw-dylib for bin crates
Fixes#93842
When `raw-dylib` is used in a `bin` crate, we need to collect all of the `raw-dylib` functions, generate the import library and add that to the linker command line.
I also changed the tests so that 1) the C++ dlls are created after the Rust dlls, thus there is no chance of accidentally using them in the Rust linking process and 2) disabled generating import libraries when building with MSVC.
Add fine-grained LLVM CFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR improves the LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support in the Rust compiler by providing forward-edge control flow protection for Rust-compiled code only by aggregating function pointers in groups identified by their return and parameter types.
Forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code share the same virtual address space) will be provided in later work as part of this project by identifying C char and integer type uses at the time types are encoded (see Type metadata in the design document in the tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/89653).
LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and requires LTO (i.e., -Clto).
Thank you again, `@eddyb,` `@nagisa,` `@pcc,` and `@tmiasko` for all the help!

make vtable pointers entirely opaque
This implements the scheme discussed in https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/338: vtable pointers should be considered entirely opaque and not even readable by Rust code, similar to function pointers.
- We have a new kind of `GlobalAlloc` that symbolically refers to a vtable.
- Miri uses that kind of allocation when generating a vtable.
- The codegen backends, upon encountering such an allocation, call `vtable_allocation` to obtain an actually dataful allocation for this vtable.
- We need new intrinsics to obtain the size and align from a vtable (for some `ptr::metadata` APIs), since direct accesses are UB now.
I had to touch quite a bit of code that I am not very familiar with, so some of this might not make much sense...

Keep unstable target features for asm feature checking
Inline assembly uses the target features to determine which registers
are available on the current target. However it needs to be able to
access unstable target features for this.

Use less string interning
This removes string interning in a couple of places where doing so won't result in perf improvements. I also switched one place to use pre-interned symbols.
Remove the source archive functionality of ArchiveWriter
We now build archives through strictly additive means rather than taking an existing archive and potentially substracting parts. This is simpler and makes it easier to swap out the archive writer in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97485.
Make `std::mem::needs_drop` accept `?Sized`
This change attempts to make `needs_drop` work with types like `[u8]` and `str`.
This enables code in types like `Arc<T>` that was not possible before, such as https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97676.
Add the intrinsic
declare {i8*, i1} @llvm.type.checked.load(i8* %ptr, i32 %offset, metadata %type)
This is used in the VFE optimization when lowering loading functions
from vtables to LLVM IR. The `metadata` is used to map the function to
all vtables this function could belong to. This ensures that functions
from vtables that might be used somewhere won't get removed.
It looks like the last time had left some remaining cfg's -- which made me think
that the stage0 bump was actually successful. This brings us to a released 1.62
beta though.
asm: Add a kreg0 register class on x86 which includes k0
Previously we only exposed a kreg register class which excludes the k0
register since it can't be used in many instructions. However k0 is a
valid register and we need to have a way of marking it as clobbered for
clobber_abi.
Fixes#94977
