I've started working on this issue and pushed a small commit, which adds a range check for integer literals in `middle::const_eval` (no `uint` at the moment)
At the moment, this patch is just a proof of concept, I'm not sure if there is a better function for the checks in `middle::const_eval`. This patch does not check for overflows after constant folding, eg:
let x: i8 = 99 + 99;
Bare functions are another example of a scalar but non-numeric
type (like char) that should be handled separately in casts.
This disallows expressions like `0 as extern "Rust" fn() -> int;`.
It might be advantageous to allow casts between bare functions
and raw pointers in unsafe code in the future, to pass function
pointers between Rust and C.
Closes#8728
Now the privacy pass returns enough information that other passes do not need to duplicate the visibility rules, and the missing_doc implementation is more consistent with other lint checks.
Previously, the `exported_items` set created by the privacy pass was
incomplete. Specifically, it did not include items that had been defined
at a private path but then `pub use`d at a public path. This commit
finds all crate exports during the privacy pass. Consequently, some code
in the reachable pass and in rustdoc is no longer necessary. This commit
then removes the separate `MissingDocLintVisitor` lint pass, opting to
check missing_doc lint in the same pass as the other lint checkers using
the visibility result computed by the privacy pass.
Fixes#9777.
These two attributes are no longer useful now that Rust has decided to leave
segmented stacks behind. It is assumed that the rust task's stack is always
large enough to make an FFI call (due to the stack being very large).
There's always the case of stack overflow, however, to consider. This does not
change the behavior of stack overflow in Rust. This is still normally triggered
by the __morestack function and aborts the whole process.
C stack overflow will continue to corrupt the stack, however (as it did before
this commit as well). The future improvement of a guard page at the end of every
rust stack is still unimplemented and is intended to be the mechanism through
which we attempt to detect C stack overflow.

This code fits better in check because it is checking that the impl
matches the interface. This allows us to avoid the awkward constructions
that lazilly collect traits and so forth. It also permits us to make
use of the results of variance inference.
This rearranges the deriving code so that #[deriving] a trait on a field
that doesn't implement that trait will point to the field in question,
e.g.
struct NotEq; // doesn't implement Eq
#[deriving(Eq)]
struct Foo {
ok: int,
also_ok: ~str,
bad: NotEq // error points here.
}
Unfortunately, this means the error is disconnected from the `deriving`
itself but there's no current way to pass that information through to
rustc except via the spans, at the moment.

This extension can be used to concatenate string literals at compile time. C has
this useful ability when placing string literals lexically next to one another,
but this needs to be handled at the syntax extension level to recursively expand
macros.
The major use case for this is something like:
macro_rules! mylog( ($fmt:expr $($arg:tt)*) => {
error2!(concat!(file!(), ":", line!(), " - ", $fmt) $($arg)*);
})
Where the mylog macro will automatically prepend the filename/line number to the
beginning of every log message.
- `begin_unwind` and `fail!` is now generic over any `T: Any + Send`.
- Every value you fail with gets boxed as an `~Any`.
- Because of implementation issues, `&'static str` and `~str` are still
handled specially behind the scenes.
- Changed the big macro source string in libsyntax to a raw string
literal, and enabled doc comments there.

Allows an enum with a discriminant to use any of the primitive integer types to store it. By default the smallest usable type is chosen, but this can be overridden with an attribute: `#[repr(int)]` etc., or `#[repr(C)]` to match the target's C ABI for the equivalent C enum.
Also adds a lint pass for using non-FFI safe enums in extern declarations, checks that specified discriminants can be stored in the specified type if any, and fixes assorted code that was assuming int.
Note that raising an error during trans doesn't stop the compile or cause
rustc to exit with a failure status, currently, so this is of more than
cosmetic importance.
This should close#9468.
I removed the test stating that nested comments should not be implemented.
I had a little chicken-and-egg problem because a comment of the std contains "/*", and adding support for nested comment creates a backward incompatibility in that case, so I had to use a dirty hack to get stage1 and stage2 to compile. This part should be revert when this commit lands in a snapshot.
This is my first non-typo contribution, so I'm open to any comment.
This commit re-introduces the functionality of __morestack in a way that it was
not originally anticipated. Rust does not currently have segmented stacks,
rather just large stack segments. We do not detect when these stack segments are
overrun currently, but this commit leverages __morestack in order to check this.
This commit purges a lot of the old __morestack and stack limit C++
functionality, migrating the necessary chunks to rust. The stack limit is now
entirely maintained in rust, and the "main logic bits" of __morestack are now
also implemented in rust as well.
I put my best effort into validating that this currently builds and runs successfully on osx and linux 32/64 bit, but I was unable to get this working on windows. We never did have unwinding through __morestack frames, and although I tried poking at it for a bit, I was unable to understand why we don't get unwinding right now.
A focus of this commit is to implement as much of the logic in rust as possible. This involved some liberal usage of `no_split_stack` in various locations, along with some use of the `asm!` macro (scary). I modified a bit of C++ to stop calling `record_sp_limit` because this is no longer defined in C++, rather in rust.
Another consequence of this commit is that `thread_local_storage::{get, set}` must both be flagged with `#[rust_stack]`. I've briefly looked at the implementations on osx/linux/windows to ensure that they're pretty small stacks, and I'm pretty sure that they're definitely less than 20K stacks, so we probably don't have a lot to worry about.
Other things worthy of note:
* The default stack size is now 4MB instead of 2MB. This is so that when we request 2MB to call a C function you don't immediately overflow because you have consumed any stack at all.
* `asm!` is actually pretty cool, maybe we could actually define context switching with it?
* I wanted to add links to the internet about all this jazz of storing information in TLS, but I was only able to find a link for the windows implementation. Otherwise my suggestion is just "disassemble on that arch and see what happens"
* I put my best effort forward on arm/mips to tweak __morestack correctly, we have no ability to test this so an extra set of eyes would be useful on these spots.
* This is all really tricky stuff, so I tried to put as many comments as I thought were necessary, but if anything is still unclear (or I completely forgot to take something into account), I'm willing to write more!
This commit resumes management of the stack boundaries and limits when switching
between tasks. This additionally leverages the __morestack function to run code
on "stack overflow". The current behavior is to abort the process, but this is
probably not the best behavior in the long term (for deails, see the comment I
wrote up in the stack exhaustion routine).
This stops labeling everything as "is private" when in fact the destination may
be public. Instead, the clause "is inaccessible" is used and the private part of
the flag is called out with a "is private" message.

Since lint check attributes are the preferred way of selectively
enabling/disabling lint checks, the output format of a failed
default check has been changed to reflect that.
When lint checks are being explicitly set by a command-line flag
or an attribute, the behavior is unchanged, so that the user can
quickly pinpoint the source.

It's unclear to me why these currently aren't allowed, and my best guess is that
a long time ago we didn't strip the ast of cfg nodes before syntax expansion.
Now that this is done, I'm not certain that we should continue to prohibit this
functionality.
This is a step in the right direction towards #5605, because now we can add an

Raw string literals are lexed into regular string literals. This is okay

This commit fixes all of the fallout of the previous commit which is an attempt
to refine privacy. There were a few unfortunate leaks which now must be plugged,
and the most horrible one is the current `shouldnt_be_public` module now inside
`std::rt`. I think that this either needs a slight reorganization of the
runtime, or otherwise it needs to just wait for the external users of these
modules to get replaced with their `rt` implementations.
Other fixes involve making things pub which should be pub, and otherwise
updating error messages that now reference privacy instead of referencing an
"unresolved name" (yay!).
This commit is the culmination of my recent effort to refine Rust's notion of
privacy and visibility among crates. The major goals of this commit were to
remove privacy checking from resolve for the sake of sane error messages, and to
attempt a much more rigid and well-tested implementation of visibility
throughout rust. The implemented rules for name visibility are:
1. Everything pub from the root namespace is visible to anyone
2. You may access any private item of your ancestors.
"Accessing a private item" depends on what the item is, so for a function this
means that you can call it, but for a module it means that you can look inside
of it. Once you look inside a private module, any accessed item must be "pub
from the root" where the new root is the private module that you looked into.
These rules required some more analysis results to get propagated from trans to
privacy in the form of a few hash tables.
I added a new test in which my goal was to showcase all of the privacy nuances
of the language, and I hope to place any new bugs into this file to prevent
regressions.
Overall, I was unable to completely remove the notion of privacy from resolve.
One use of privacy is for dealing with glob imports. Essentially a glob import
can only import *public* items from the destination, and because this must be
done at namespace resolution time, resolve must maintain the notion of "what
items are public in a module". There are some sad approximations of privacy, but
I unfortunately can't see clear methods to extract them outside.
The other use case of privacy in resolve now is one that must stick around
regardless of glob imports. When dealing with privacy, checking a private path
needs to know "what the last private thing was" when looking at a path. Resolve
is the only compiler pass which knows the answer to this question, so it
maintains the answer on a per-path resolution basis (works similarly to the
def_map generated).

This PR solves one of the pain points with c-style enums. Simplifies writing a fn to convert from an int/uint to an enum. It does this through a `#[deriving(FromPrimitive)]` syntax extension.
Before this is committed though, we need to discuss if `ToPrimitive`/`FromPrimitive` has the right design (cc #4819). I've changed all the `.to_int()` and `from_int()` style functions to return `Option<int>` so we can handle partial functions. For this PR though only enums and `extra::num::bigint::*` take advantage of returning None for unrepresentable values. In the long run it'd be better if `i64.to_i8()` returned `None` if the value was too large, but I'll save this for a future PR.

This PR removes these specific "obsolete syntax"/"suggestion for change" errors and just lets the parser run into regular parser errors for long-invalid syntax. I also removed `ObsoletePrivSection` which apparently dates further back than cmr or I could recall and `ObsoleteUnenforcedBound` which seemed unused. Also I removed `ObsoleteNewtypeEnum`.
Replaces existing tests for removed obsolete-syntax errors with tests
for the resulting regular errors, adds a test for each of the removed
parser errors to make sure that obsolete forms don't start working
again, removes some obsolete/superfluous tests that were now failing.

changes to parser error messages to accomodate new tests.
That is, only a single expression or item gets parsed, so if there are
any extra tokens (e.g. the start of another item/expression) the user
should be told, rather than silently dropping them.
An example:
macro_rules! foo {
() => {
println("hi");
println("bye);
}
}
would expand to just `println("hi")`, which is almost certainly not
what the programmer wanted.

It is simply defined as `f64` across every platform right now.
A use case hasn't been presented for a `float` type defined as the
highest precision floating point type implemented in hardware on the
platform. Performance-wise, using the smallest precision correct for the
use case greatly saves on cache space and allows for fitting more
numbers into SSE/AVX registers.
If there was a use case, this could be implemented as simply a type
alias or a struct thanks to `#[cfg(...)]`.

As mentioned in #9456, the format! syntax extension would previously consider an
empty format as a 'Unknown' format which could then also get coerced into a
different style of format on another argument.
This is unusual behavior because `{}` is a very common format and if you have
`{0} {0:?}` you wouldn't expect them both to be coereced to the `Poly`
formatter. This commit removes this coercion, but still retains the requirement
that each argument has exactly one format specified for it (an empty format now
counts as well).
Perhaps at a later date we can add support for multiple formats of one argument,
but this puts us in at least a backwards-compatible situation if we decide to do
that.

This lifts various restrictions on the runtime, for example the character limit

allocating (because they use fmt! syntax), but the new debug2! macros don't

Previously, the lexer calling `rdr.fatal(...)` would report the span of
the last complete token, instead of a span within the erroneous token
(besides one span fixed in 1ac90bb).
This branch adds wrappers around `rdr.fatal(...)` that sets the span
explicilty, so that all fatal errors in `libsyntax/parse/lexer.rs` now
report the offending code more precisely. A number of tests try to
verify that, though the `compile-fail` testing setup can only check that
the spans are on the right lines, and the "unterminated string/block
comment" errors can't have the line marked at all, so that's incomplete.
This closes#9149.
Also, the lexer errors now report the offending code in the error message,
not just via the span, just like other errors do.
The `Drop` implementation was used to prevent `Future` from being implicitly copyable. Since `~fn`s are no longer copyable, this is no longer needed. I added a cfail test to make sure that this is actually the case.
I method-ized all of the `Future` creation methods and added a new one, `spawn_with`, which is similar to `task::spawn_with`.

This renames the syntax-extension file to format from ifmt, and it also reduces
the amount of complexity inside by defining all other macros in terms of
format_args!
The purpose of this macro is to further reduce the number of allocations which
occur when dealing with formatting strings. This macro will perform all of the
static analysis necessary to validate that a format string is safe, and then it
will wrap up the "format string" into an opaque struct which can then be passed
around.
Two safe functions are added (write/format) which take this opaque argument
structure, unwrap it, and then call the unsafe version of write/format (in an
unsafe block). Other than these two functions, it is not intended for anyone to
ever look inside this opaque struct.
The macro looks a bit odd, but mostly because of rvalue lifetimes this is the
only way for it to be safe that I know of.
Example use-cases of this are:
* third-party libraries can use the default formatting syntax without any
forced allocations
* the fail!() macro can avoid allocating the format string
* the logging macros can avoid allocation any strings
This removes another large chunk of this odd 'clownshoes' identifier showing up
in symbol names. These all originated from external crates because the encoded
items were encoded independently of the paths calculated in ast_map. The
encoding of these paths now uses the helper function in ast_map to calculate the
"pretty name" for an impl block.
Unfortunately there is still no information about generics in the symbol name,
but it's certainly vastly better than before
hash::__extensions__::write::_version::v0.8
becomes
hash::Writer$SipState::write::hversion::v0.8
This also fixes bugs in which lots of methods would show up as `meth_XXX`, they
now only show up as `meth` and throw some extra characters onto the version
string.
These commits fix bugs related to identically named statics in functions of implementations in various situations. The commit messages have most of the information about what bugs are being fixed and why.
As a bonus, while I was messing around with name mangling, I improved the backtraces we'll get in gdb by removing `__extensions__` for the trait/type being implemented and by adding the method name as well. Yay!
Remove __extensions__ from method symbols as well as the meth_XXX. The XXX is
now used to append a few characters at the end of the name of the symbol.

This is currently unsound since `bool` is represented as `i8`. It will
become sound when `bool` is stored as `i8` but always used as `i1`.

There are 6 new compiler recognised attributes: deprecated, experimental,
unstable, stable, frozen, locked (these levels are taken directly from
Node's "stability index"[1]). These indicate the stability of the
item to which they are attached; e.g. `#[deprecated] fn foo() { .. }`
says that `foo` is deprecated.
This comes with 3 lints for the first 3 levels (with matching names) that
will detect the use of items marked with them (the `unstable` lint
includes items with no stability attribute). The attributes can be given
a short text note that will be displayed by the lint. An example:
#[warn(unstable)]; // `allow` by default
#[deprecated="use `bar`"]
fn foo() { }
#[stable]
fn bar() { }
fn baz() { }
fn main() {
foo(); // "warning: use of deprecated item: use `bar`"
bar(); // all fine
baz(); // "warning: use of unmarked item"
}
The lints currently only check the "edges" of the AST: i.e. functions,
methods[2], structs and enum variants. Any stability attributes on modules,
enums, traits and impls are not checked.
