Apparently it can't live in the main binary, since on non-Linux
platforms, dynamics libs won't find symbols in the binary. This
removes the crate_map pointer from rust_crate again, and instead
passes it as an extra argument to rust_start. Rustboot doesn't pass
this argument, but supposedly that's okay as long as we don't actually
use it on that platform.
This overloads the meaning of RUST_LOG to also allow
'module.submodule' or 'module.somethingelse=2' forms. The first turn
on all logging for a module (loglevel 3), the second sets its loglevel
to 2. Log levels are:
0: Show only errors
1: Errors and warnings
2: Errors, warnings, and notes
3: Everything, including debug logging
Right now, since we only have one 'log' operation, everything happens
at level 1 (warning), so the only meaningful thing that can be done
with the new RUST_LOG support is disable logging (=0) for some
modules.
TODOS:
* Language support for logging at a specific level
* Also add a log level field to tasks, query the current task as well
as the current module before logging (log if one of them allows it)
* Revise the C logging API to conform to this set-up (globals for
per-module log level, query the task level before logging, stop
using a global mask)
Implementation notes:
Crates now contain two extra data structures. A 'module map' that
contains names and pointers to the module-log-level globals for each
module in the crate that logs, and a 'crate map' that points at the
crate's module map, as well as at the crate maps of all external
crates it depends on. These are walked by the runtime (in
rust_crate.cpp) to set the currect log levels based on RUST_LOG.
These module log globals are allocated as-needed whenever a log
expression is encountered, and their location is hard-coded into the
logging code, which compares the current level to the log statement's
level, and skips over all logging code when it is lower.
This makes passing them around cheaper. There is now a table (see
front/codemap.rs) that is needed to transform such an uint into an
actual filename/line/col location.
Also cleans up the span building in the parser a bit.
I think just about every type can be used as a block result now. There's quite
a proliferation of tests here, but they all test slightly different things and
some are split out to remain XFAILed. The tests of generic vectors are still
XFAILed because generic aliased boxes still don't work in general.
Nicer parsing of self-calls (expr_self_method nodes inside expr_call
nodes, rather than a separate expr_call_self) makes typechecking
tractable. We can now write self-calls that take arguments and return
values (see: test/run-pass/obj-self-*.rs).
It's still sketchy. I added a typestate annotation field to statements
tagged stmt_decl or stmt_expr, because a stmt_decl statement has a typestate
that's different from that of its child node. This necessitated trivial
changes to a bunch of other files all over to the compiler. I also added a
few small standard library functions, some of which I didn't actually end
up using but which I thought might be useful anyway.
The last few pieces of the hack that lets us use trans.trans_call() to
translate self-calls, plus a fix for the parser buy that was
preventing self-call expressions from getting past parsing.
test/run-pass/obj-self.rs works now (as in it actually prints "hi!"
twice!).
Mostly:
* Merciless refactoring of trans.rs so that trans_call can work for
self-calls as well as other kinds of calls
Also:
* Various changes to go with having idents, rather than exprs, in
expr_call_self AST nodes
* Added missing case for SELF token to token.to_str()
