libstd: Implement `StrBuf`, a new string buffer type like `Vec`, and port all code over to use it.
Rebased & tests-fixed version of https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/13269
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
This commit moves all logging out of the standard library into an external
crate. This crate is the new crate which is responsible for all logging macros
and logging implementation. A few reasons for this change are:
* The crate map has always been a bit of a code smell among rust programs. It
has difficulty being loaded on almost all platforms, and it's used almost
exclusively for logging and only logging. Removing the crate map is one of the
end goals of this movement.
* The compiler has a fair bit of special support for logging. It has the
__log_level() expression as well as generating a global word per module
specifying the log level. This is unfairly favoring the built-in logging
system, and is much better done purely in libraries instead of the compiler
itself.
* Initialization of logging is much easier to do if there is no reliance on a
magical crate map being available to set module log levels.
* If the logging library can be written outside of the standard library, there's
no reason that it shouldn't be. It's likely that we're not going to build the
highest quality logging library of all time, so third-party libraries should
be able to provide just as high-quality logging systems as the default one
provided in the rust distribution.
With a migration such as this, the change does not come for free. There are some
subtle changes in the behavior of liblog vs the previous logging macros:
* The core change of this migration is that there is no longer a physical
log-level per module. This concept is still emulated (it is quite useful), but
there is now only a global log level, not a local one. This global log level
is a reflection of the maximum of all log levels specified. The previously
generated logging code looked like:
if specified_level <= __module_log_level() {
println!(...)
}
The newly generated code looks like:
if specified_level <= ::log::LOG_LEVEL {
if ::log::module_enabled(module_path!()) {
println!(...)
}
}
Notably, the first layer of checking is still intended to be "super fast" in
that it's just a load of a global word and a compare. The second layer of
checking is executed to determine if the current module does indeed have
logging turned on.
This means that if any module has a debug log level turned on, all modules
with debug log levels get a little bit slower (they all do more expensive
dynamic checks to determine if they're turned on or not).
Semantically, this migration brings no change in this respect, but
runtime-wise, this will have a perf impact on some code.
* A `RUST_LOG=::help` directive will no longer print out a list of all modules
that can be logged. This is because the crate map will no longer specify the
log levels of all modules, so the list of modules is not known. Additionally,
warnings can no longer be provided if a malformed logging directive was
supplied.
The new "hello world" for logging looks like:
#[phase(syntax, link)]
extern crate log;
fn main() {
debug!("Hello, world!");
}
This commit shreds all remnants of libextra from the compiler and standard
distribution. Two modules, c_vec/tempfile, were moved into libstd after some
cleanup, and the other modules were moved to separate crates as seen fit.
Closes#8784Closes#12413Closes#12576
- Added `TraitObject` representation to `std::raw`.
- Added doc to `std::raw`.
- Removed `Any::as_void_ptr()` and `Any::as_mut_void_ptr()`
methods as they are uneccessary now after the removal of
headers on owned boxes. This reduces the number of virtual calls needed.
- Made the `..Ext` implementations work directly with the repr of
a trait object.
- Removed `Any`-related traits from the prelude.
- Added bench for `Any`
This updates a number of ignore-test tests, and removes a few completely
outdated tests due to the feature being tested no longer being supported.
This brings a number of bench/shootout tests up to date so they're compiling
again. I make no claims to the performance of these benchmarks, it's just nice
to not have bitrotted code.

These two containers are indeed collections, so their place is in
libcollections, not in libstd. There will always be a hash map as part of the
standard distribution of Rust, but by moving it out of the standard library it
makes libstd that much more portable to more platforms and environments.
This conveniently also removes the stuttering of 'std::hashmap::HashMap',
although 'collections::HashMap' is only one character shorter.
When tests fail, their stdout and stderr is printed as part of the summary, but
this helps suppress failure messages from #[should_fail] tests and generally
clean up the output of the test runner.
* src/test/run-pass/issue-3559.rs was fixed in #4726
* src/test/compile-fail/borrowck-call-sendfn.rs was fixed in #2978
* update src/test/compile-fail/issue-5500-1.rs to work with current Rust
* removed src/test/compile-fail/issue-5500.rs because it is tested in
src/test/run-fail/issue-5500.rs
* src/test/compile-fail/view-items-at-top.rs fixed
* #897 fixed
* compile-fail/issue-6762.rs issue was closed as dup of #6801
* deleted compile-fail/issue-2074.rs because it became irelevant and is
irrelevant #2074, a test covering this was added in

Declare a `type SendStr = MaybeOwned<'static>` to ease readibility of
types that needed the old SendStr behavior.
Implement all the traits for MaybeOwned that SendStr used to implement.
`Times::times` was always a second-class loop because it did not support the `break` and `continue` operations. Its playful appeal was then lost after `do` was disabled for closures. It's time to let this one go.
If the main closure failed, then the `exit_code` variable would still be `None`,
and the `unwrap()` was failing (triggering a process abort). This changes the
`unwrap()` to an `unwrap_or()` in order to prevent process abort and detect when
the native task failed.
The reasons for doing this are:
* The model on which linked failure is based is inherently complex
* The implementation is also very complex, and there are few remaining who
fully understand the implementation
* There are existing race conditions in the core context switching function of
the scheduler, and possibly others.
* It's unclear whether this model of linked failure maps well to a 1:1 threading
model
Linked failure is often a desired aspect of tasks, but we would like to take a
much more conservative approach in re-implementing linked failure if at all.
