This implements a considerable portion of rust-lang/rfcs#369 (tracked in #18640). Some interpretations had to be made in order to get this to work. The breaking changes are listed below:
[breaking-change]
- `core::num::{Num, Unsigned, Primitive}` have been deprecated and their re-exports removed from the `{std, core}::prelude`.
- `core::num::{Zero, One, Bounded}` have been deprecated. Use the static methods on `core::num::{Float, Int}` instead. There is no equivalent to `Zero::is_zero`. Use `(==)` with `{Float, Int}::zero` instead.
- `Signed::abs_sub` has been moved to `std::num::FloatMath`, and is no longer implemented for signed integers.
- `core::num::Signed` has been removed, and its methods have been moved to `core::num::Float` and a new trait, `core::num::SignedInt`. The methods now take the `self` parameter by value.
- `core::num::{Saturating, CheckedAdd, CheckedSub, CheckedMul, CheckedDiv}` have been removed, and their methods moved to `core::num::Int`. Their parameters are now taken by value. This means that
- `std::time::Duration` no longer implements `core::num::{Zero, CheckedAdd, CheckedSub}` instead defining the required methods non-polymorphically.
- `core::num::{zero, one, abs, signum}` have been deprecated. Use their respective methods instead.
- The `core::num::{next_power_of_two, is_power_of_two, checked_next_power_of_two}` functions have been deprecated in favor of methods defined a new trait, `core::num::UnsignedInt`
- `core::iter::{AdditiveIterator, MultiplicativeIterator}` are now only implemented for the built-in numeric types.
- `core::iter::{range, range_inclusive, range_step, range_step_inclusive}` now require `core::num::Int` to be implemented for the type they a re parametrized over.
This commit deprecates the entire libtime library in favor of the
externally-provided libtime in the rust-lang organization. Users of the
`libtime` crate as-is today should add this to their Cargo manifests:
[dependencies.time]
git = "https://github.com/rust-lang/time"
To implement this transition, a new function `Duration::span` was added to the
`std::time::Duration` time. This function takes a closure and then returns the
duration of time it took that closure to execute. This interface will likely
improve with `FnOnce` unboxed closures as moving in and out will be a little
easier.
Due to the deprecation of the in-tree crate, this is a:

cc #18855, some of the conversions in the `src/test/bench` area may have been a
little nicer with that implemented
https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/221
The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when
writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the
possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot
because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak
of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other
circumlocutions.
Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when
operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate
out a section describing the "Err-producing" case.
We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as
an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology
accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe.
To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead.
Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this
will work on UNIX based systems:
grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g'
You can of course also do this by hand.

Technically speaking, negative duration is not valid ISO 8601, but we need to
print it anyway. If `d` is a positive duration with the output `xxxxxxx`, then
the expected output of negative `-d` value is `-xxxxxxx`. I.e. the idea is to
print negative durations as positive with a leading minus sign.
Closes#18181.
This commit repurposes most statics as constants in the standard library itself,
with the exception of TLS keys which precisely have their own memory location as
an implementation detail.
This commit also rewrites the bitflags syntax to use `const` instead of
`static`. All invocations will need to replace the word `static` with `const`
when declaring flags.
Due to the modification of the `bitflags!` syntax, this is a:

This enables `num_milliseconds` to return an `i64` again instead of
`Option<i64>`, because it is guaranteed not to overflow.
The Duration range is now rougly 300e6 years (positive and negative),
whereas it was 300e9 years previously. To put these numbers in
perspective, 300e9 years is about 21 times the age of the universe
(according to Wolfram|Alpha). 300e6 years is about 1/15 of the age of
the earth (according to Wolfram|Alpha).
This changes the internal representation of `Duration` from
days: i32,
secs: i32,
nanos: u32
to
secs: i64,
nanos: i32
This resolves#16466. Some methods now take `i64` instead of `i32` due
to the increased range. Some methods, like `num_milliseconds`, now
return an `Option<i64>` instead of `i64`, because the range of
`Duration` is now larger than e.g. 2^63 milliseconds.
Put `Duration` in `time::duration`, where the two constants can
be called just `MAX` and `MIN`. Reexport from `time`.
This provides more room for the time module to expand.
