fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.
its own type. Use a bitset to represent built-in bounds. There
are several places in the language where only builtin bounds (aka kinds)
will be accepted, e.g. on closures, destructor type parameters perhaps,
and on trait types.
At the moment this only includes type checking and there is no code generation support yet. I wanted to get the design reviewed first.
From discussion with @graydon at #5841, re-implemented as `#[simd]` attribute on structs.
Progressing towards #3499.
Also fixed the docstring on `TC_ONCE_CLOSURE` (was accidentally the same as `TC_MUTABLE`) and shifted the `TC_EMPTY_ENUM` bit left by one since whatever previously used that bit has been removed.
The drop block has been deprecated for quite some time. This patch series removes support for parsing it and all the related machinery that made drop work.
As a side feature of all this, I also added the ability to annote fields in structs. This allows comments to be properly associated with an individual field. However, I didn't update `rustdoc` to integrate these comment blocks into the documentation it generates.
Closes#3083.
This takes a similar approach to #5797 where a set is present on the `tcx` of used mutable definitions. Everything is by default warned about, and analyses must explicitly add mutable definitions to this set so they're not warned about.
Most of this was pretty straightforward, although there was one caveat that I ran into when implementing it. Apparently when the old modes are used (or maybe `legacy_modes`, I'm not sure) some different code paths are taken to cause spurious warnings to be issued which shouldn't be issued. I'm not really sure how modes even worked, so I was having a lot of trouble tracking this down. I figured that because they're a legacy thing that I'd just de-mode the compiler so that the warnings wouldn't be a problem anymore (or at least for the compiler).
Other than that, the entire compiler compiles without warnings of unused mutable variables. To prevent bad warnings, #5965 should be landed (which in turn is waiting on #5963) before landing this. I figured I'd stick it out for review anyway though.
