This is an implementation of [RFC 578][rfc] which adds a new `std::env` module
to replace most of the functionality in the current `std::os` module. More
details can be found in the RFC itself, but as a summary the following methods
have all been deprecated:
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/578
* `os::args_as_bytes` => `env::args`
* `os::args` => `env::args`
* `os::consts` => `env::consts`
* `os::dll_filename` => no replacement, use `env::consts` directly
* `os::page_size` => `env::page_size`
* `os::make_absolute` => use `env::current_dir` + `join` instead
* `os::getcwd` => `env::current_dir`
* `os::change_dir` => `env::set_current_dir`
* `os::homedir` => `env::home_dir`
* `os::tmpdir` => `env::temp_dir`
* `os::join_paths` => `env::join_paths`
* `os::split_paths` => `env::split_paths`
* `os::self_exe_name` => `env::current_exe`
* `os::self_exe_path` => use `env::current_exe` + `pop`
* `os::set_exit_status` => `env::set_exit_status`
* `os::get_exit_status` => `env::get_exit_status`
* `os::env` => `env::vars`
* `os::env_as_bytes` => `env::vars`
* `os::getenv` => `env::var` or `env::var_string`
* `os::getenv_as_bytes` => `env::var`
* `os::setenv` => `env::set_var`
* `os::unsetenv` => `env::remove_var`
Many function signatures have also been tweaked for various purposes, but the
main changes were:
* `Vec`-returning APIs now all return iterators instead
* All APIs are now centered around `OsString` instead of `Vec<u8>` or `String`.
There is currently on convenience API, `env::var_string`, which can be used to
get the value of an environment variable as a unicode `String`.
All old APIs are `#[deprecated]` in-place and will remain for some time to allow
for migrations. The semantics of the APIs have been tweaked slightly with regard
to dealing with invalid unicode (panic instead of replacement).
The new `std::env` module is all contained within the `env` feature, so crates
must add the following to access the new APIs:
#![feature(env)]
[breaking-change]
- consolidate target_record_sp_limit and target_get_sp_limit functions
for aarch64, powerpc, arm-ios and openbsd as there are all without
segmented stacks (no need to duplicate functions).
- rename __load_self function to rust_load_self
- use a mutex inner load_self() as underline implementation is not thread-safe
Fixes#10302
I really am not sure I'm doing this right, so here goes nothing...
Also testing this isn't easy. I don't have any other *nix boxes besides a Linux one.
Test code:
```rust
use std::thread;
use std::io::timer::sleep;
use std::time::duration::Duration;
fn make_thread<'a>(i: i64) -> thread::JoinGuard<'a, ()>
{
thread::Builder::new().name(format!("MyThread{}", i).to_string()).scoped(move ||
{
println!("Start: {}", i);
sleep(Duration::seconds(i));
println!("End: {}", i);
})
}
fn main()
{
let mut guards = vec![make_thread(3)];
for i in 4i64..16
{
guards.push(make_thread(i));
}
}
```

Per [RFC 517](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/575/), this commit
introduces platform-native strings. The API is essentially as described
in the RFC.
The WTF-8 implementation is adapted from @SimonSapin's
[implementation](https://github.com/SimonSapin/rust-wtf8). To make this
work, some encodign and decoding functionality in `libcore` is now
exported in a "raw" fashion reusable for WTF-8. These exports are *not*
reexported in `std`, nor are they stable.
Originally, this was going to be discussed and revisted, however I've been working on this for months, and a rebase on top of master was about 1 flight's worth of work so I just went ahead and did it.
This gets you as far as being able to target powerpc with, eg:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage2/lib/ x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage2/bin/rustc -C linker=powerpc-linux-gnu-gcc --target powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu hello.rs
Would really love to get this out before 1.0. r? @alexcrichton
This commit takes a first pass at stabilizing `std::thread`:
* It removes the `detach` method in favor of two constructors -- `spawn`
for detached threads, `scoped` for "scoped" (i.e., must-join)
threads. This addresses some of the surprise/frustrating debug
sessions with the previous API, in which `spawn` produced a guard that
on destruction joined the thread (unless `detach` was called).
The reason to have the division in part is that `Send` will soon not
imply `'static`, which means that `scoped` thread creation can take a
closure over *shared stack data* of the parent thread. On the other
hand, this means that the parent must not pop the relevant stack
frames while the child thread is running. The `JoinGuard` is used to
prevent this from happening by joining on drop (if you have not
already explicitly `join`ed.) The APIs around `scoped` are
future-proofed for the `Send` changes by taking an additional lifetime
parameter. With the current definition of `Send`, this is forced to be
`'static`, but when `Send` changes these APIs will gain their full
flexibility immediately.
Threads that are `spawn`ed, on the other hand, are detached from the
start and do not yield an RAII guard.
The hope is that, by making `scoped` an explicit opt-in with a very
suggestive name, it will be drastically less likely to be caught by a
surprising deadlock due to an implicit join at the end of a scope.
* The module itself is marked stable.
* Existing methods other than `spawn` and `scoped` are marked stable.
The migration path is:
```rust
Thread::spawn(f).detached()
```
becomes
```rust
Thread::spawn(f)
```
while
```rust
let res = Thread::spawn(f);
res.join()
```
becomes
```rust
let res = Thread::scoped(f);
res.join()
```

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 494][rfc] which removes the entire
`std::c_vec` module and redesigns the `std::c_str` module as `std::ffi`.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0494-c_str-and-c_vec-stability.md
The interface of the new `CString` is outlined in the linked RFC, the primary
changes being:
* The `ToCStr` trait is gone, meaning the `with_c_str` and `to_c_str` methods
are now gone. These two methods are replaced with a `CString::from_slice`
method.
* The `CString` type is now just a wrapper around `Vec<u8>` with a static
guarantee that there is a trailing nul byte with no internal nul bytes. This
means that `CString` now implements `Deref<Target = [c_char]>`, which is where
it gains most of its methods from. A few helper methods are added to acquire a
slice of `u8` instead of `c_char`, as well as including a slice with the
trailing nul byte if necessary.
* All usage of non-owned `CString` values is now done via two functions inside
of `std::ffi`, called `c_str_to_bytes` and `c_str_to_bytes_with_nul`. These
functions are now the one method used to convert a `*const c_char` to a Rust
slice of `u8`.
Many more details, including newly deprecated methods, can be found linked in
the RFC. This is a:
[breaking-change]
Closes#20444
This removes a large array of deprecated functionality, regardless of how
recently it was deprecated. The purpose of this commit is to clean out the
standard libraries and compiler for the upcoming alpha release.
Some notable compiler changes were to enable warnings for all now-deprecated
command line arguments (previously the deprecated versions were silently
accepted) as well as removing deriving(Zero) entirely (the trait was removed).
The distribution no longer contains the libtime or libregex_macros crates. Both
of these have been deprecated for some time and are available externally.
This modifies `Parser::eat_lt` to always split up `<<`s, instead of doing so only when a lifetime name followed or the `force` parameter (now removed) was `true`. This is because `Foo<<TYPE` is now a valid start to a type, whereas previously only `Foo<<LIFETIME` was valid.
This is a [breaking-change]. Change code that looks like this:
```rust
let x = foo as bar << 13;
```
to use parentheses, like this:
```rust
let x = (foo as bar) << 13;
```
Closes#17362.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 503][rfc] which is a stabilization
story for the prelude. Most of the RFC was directly applied, removing reexports.
Some reexports are kept around, however:
* `range` remains until range syntax has landed to reduce churn.
* `Path` and `GenericPath` remain until path reform lands. This is done to
prevent many imports of `GenericPath` which will soon be removed.
* All `io` traits remain until I/O reform lands so imports can be rewritten all
at once to `std::io::prelude::*`.
This is a breaking change because many prelude reexports have been removed, and
the RFC can be consulted for the exact list of removed reexports, as well as to
find the locations of where to import them.

Closes#20068
This pass performs a second pass of stabilization through the `std::sync`
module, avoiding modules/types that are being handled in other PRs (e.g.
mutexes, rwlocks, condvars, and channels).
The following items are now stable
* `sync::atomic`
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_BOOL_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_BOOL`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_INT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_INT`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_UINT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_UINT`)
* `sync::Once`
* `sync::ONCE_INIT`
* `sync::Once::call_once` (was `doit`)
* C == `pthread_once(..)`
* Boost == `call_once(..)`
* Windows == `InitOnceExecuteOnce`
* `sync::Barrier`
* `sync::Barrier::new`
* `sync::Barrier::wait` (now returns a `bool`)
* `sync::Semaphore::new`
* `sync::Semaphore::acquire`
* `sync::Semaphore::release`
The following items remain unstable
* `sync::SemaphoreGuard`
* `sync::Semaphore::access` - it's unclear how this relates to the poisoning
story of mutexes.
* `sync::TaskPool` - the semantics of a failing task and whether a thread is
re-attached to a thread pool are somewhat unclear, and the
utility of this type in `sync` is question with respect to
the jobs of other primitives. This type will likely become
stable or move out of the standard library over time.
* `sync::Future` - futures as-is have yet to be deeply re-evaluated with the
recent core changes to Rust's synchronization story, and will
likely become stable in the future but are unstable until
that time comes.
[breaking-change]
This commit performs a second pass over the `std::thread_local` module. Most of
the functionality remains explicitly unstable, but the specific actions taken
were:
* `thread_local` is now stable
* `thread_local!` is now stable
* `thread_local::Key` is now stable
* `thread_local::Key::with` is now stable
* `thread_local::Key::destroyed` is deprecated in favor of a more general
`state` function
* `thread_local::Key::state` was added to query the three states that a key can
be in: uninitialized, valid, or destroyed. This function, and the
corresponding `State` enum, are both marked unstable as we may wish to expand
it later on.
* `thread_local::scoped` is entirely unstable. There hasn't been a whole lot of
usage of this module in the standard distribution, so it remains unstable at
this time.
Note that while the structure `Key` is marked stable, it is currently forced to
expose all of its implementation details due to the use of
construction-via-macro. The use of construction-via-macro is currently required
in order to place the `#[thread_local]` attribute on static in a
platform-specific manner. These stability attributes were assigned assuming that
it will be acceptable to tweak the implementation of `Key` in the future.
