This PR introduces an `ObligationForest` data structure that the fulfillment context can use to track what's going on, instead of the current flat vector. This enables a number of improvements:
1. transactional support, at least for pushing new obligations
2. remove the "errors will be reported" hack -- instead, we only add types to the global cache once their entire subtree has been proven safe. Before, we never knew when this point was reached because we didn't track the subtree.
- this in turn allows us to limit coinductive reasoning to structural traits, which sidesteps #29859
3. keeping the backtrace should allow for an improved error message, where we give the user full context
- we can also remove chained obligation causes
This PR is not 100% complete. In particular:
- [x] Currently, types that embed themselves like `struct Foo { f: Foo }` give an overflow when evaluating whether `Foo: Sized`. This is not a very user-friendly error message, and this is a common beginner error. I plan to special-case this scenario, I think.
- [x] I should do some perf. measurements. (Update: 2% regression.)
- [x] More tests targeting #29859
- [ ] The transactional support is not fully integrated, though that should be easy enough.
- [ ] The error messages are not taking advantage of the backtrace.
I'd certainly like to do 1 through 3 before landing, but 4 and 5 could come as separate PRs.
r? @aturon // good way to learn more about this part of the trait system
f? @arielb1 // already knows this part of the trait system :)
to get the `Sized` error usable, since that hits new users
frequently. Further work is needed for the error reporting for non-Sized
cycle cases; those currently just fallback to the old path. Also adjust tests.
this makes sure the checks run before typeck (which might use the constant or const
function to calculate an array length) and gives prettier error messages in case of for
loops and such (since they aren't expanded yet).
This commit is the standard API stabilization commit for the 1.6 release cycle.
The list of issues and APIs below have all been through their cycle-long FCP and
the libs team decisions are listed below
Stabilized APIs
* `Read::read_exact`
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof` (renamed from `UnexpectedEOF`)
* libcore -- this was a bit of a nuanced stabilization, the crate itself is now
marked as `#[stable]` and the methods appearing via traits for primitives like
`char` and `str` are now also marked as stable. Note that the extension traits
themeselves are marked as unstable as they're imported via the prelude. The
`try!` macro was also moved from the standard library into libcore to have the
same interface. Otherwise the functions all have copied stability from the
standard library now.
* The `#![no_std]` attribute
* `fs::DirBuilder`
* `fs::DirBuilder::new`
* `fs::DirBuilder::recursive`
* `fs::DirBuilder::create`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt::mode`
* `vec::Drain`
* `vec::Vec::drain`
* `string::Drain`
* `string::String::drain`
* `vec_deque::Drain`
* `vec_deque::VecDeque::drain`
* `collections::hash_map::Drain`
* `collections::hash_map::HashMap::drain`
* `collections::hash_set::Drain`
* `collections::hash_set::HashSet::drain`
* `collections::binary_heap::Drain`
* `collections::binary_heap::BinaryHeap::drain`
* `Vec::extend_from_slice` (renamed from `push_all`)
* `Mutex::get_mut`
* `Mutex::into_inner`
* `RwLock::get_mut`
* `RwLock::into_inner`
* `Iterator::min_by_key` (renamed from `min_by`)
* `Iterator::max_by_key` (renamed from `max_by`)
Deprecated APIs
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEOF` (renamed to `UnexpectedEof`)
* `OsString::from_bytes`
* `OsStr::to_cstring`
* `OsStr::to_bytes`
* `fs::walk_dir` and `fs::WalkDir`
* `path::Components::peek`
* `slice::bytes::MutableByteVector`
* `slice::bytes::copy_memory`

New APIs (still unstable)
* `<[T]>::sort_by_key` (added to mirror `min_by_key`)

This prevents ICEs when old crates are used with a new version of
rustc. Currently, the linking of crates compiled with different
versions of rustc is completely unsupported.
Fixes#28700
