Add LLVM KCFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds LLVM Kernel Control Flow Integrity (KCFI) support to the Rust compiler. It initially provides forward-edge control flow protection for operating systems kernels for Rust-compiled code only by aggregating function pointers in groups identified by their return and parameter types. (See llvm/llvm-project@cff5bef.)
Forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code share the same virtual address space) will be provided in later work as part of this project by identifying C char and integer type uses at the time types are encoded (see Type metadata in the design document in the tracking issue #89653).
LLVM KCFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=kcfi.

Add -Z maximal-hir-to-mir-coverage flag
This PR adds a new unstable flag `-Z maximal-hir-to-mir-coverage` that changes the behavior of `maybe_lint_level_root_bounded`, pursuant to [a discussion on Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler/topic/Mapping.20MIR.20to.20HIR). When enabled, this function will not search upwards for a lint root, but rather immediately return the provided HIR node ID. This change increases the granularity of the mapping between MIR locations and HIR nodes inside the `SourceScopeLocalData` data structures. This increase in granularity is useful for rustc consumers like [Flowistry](https://github.com/willcrichton/flowistry) that rely on getting source-mapping information about the MIR CFG that is as precise as possible.
A test `maximal_mir_to_hir_coverage.rs` has been added to verify that this flag does not break anything.

Add StableOrd trait as proposed in MCP 533.
The `StableOrd` trait can be used to mark types as having a stable sort order across compilation sessions. Collections that sort their items in a stable way can safely implement HashStable by hashing items in sort order.

Use `as_deref` in compiler (but only where it makes sense)

Literal lowering now happens at two different times. Expression literals
are lowered when HIR is crated. Attribute literals are lowered during
parsing.
This commit changes the language very slightly. Some programs that used
to not compile now will compile. This is because some invalid literals
that are removed by `cfg` or attribute macros will no longer trigger
errors. See this comment for more details:

Allow use of `-Clto=thin` with `-Ccodegen-units=1` in general
The current logic to ignore ThinLTO when `-Ccodegen-units=1` makes sense for local ThinLTO but even in this scenario, a user may still want (non-local) ThinLTO for the purpose of optimizing dependencies into the final crate which is being compiled with 1 CGU.
The previous behavior was even more confusing because if you were generating a binary (`--emit=link`), then you would get ThinLTO but if you asked for LLVM IR or bytecode, then it would silently change to using regular LTO.
With this change, we only override the defaults for local ThinLTO if you ask for a single output such as LLVM IR or bytecode and in all other cases honor the requested LTO setting.

Track where diagnostics were created.
This implements the `-Ztrack-diagnostics` flag, which uses `#[track_caller]` to track where diagnostics are created. It is meant as a debugging tool much like `-Ztreat-err-as-bug`.

struct B;
fn main(){
let _: A = B;
}
```
...now emits the following error message:
```

| - ^ expected struct `A`, found struct `B`

| expected due to this

Change process spawning to inherit the parent's signal mask by default
Previously, the signal mask was always reset when a child process is
started. This breaks tools like `nohup` which expect `SIGHUP` to be
blocked for all transitive processes.
With this change, the default behavior changes to inherit the signal mask.
This also changes the signal disposition for `SIGPIPE` to only be changed if the `#[unix_sigpipe]` attribute isn't set.
translation: doc comments with derives, subdiagnostic-less enum variants, more derive use
- Adds support for `doc` attributes in the diagnostic derives so that documentation comments don't result in the derive failing.
- Adds support for enum variants in the subdiagnostic derive to not actually correspond to an addition to a diagnostic.
- Made use of the derive in more places in the `rustc_ast_lowering`, `rustc_ast_passes`, `rustc_lint`, `rustc_session`, `rustc_infer` - taking advantage of recent additions like eager subdiagnostics, multispan suggestions, etc.

The compiler currently has `-Ztime` and `-Ztime-passes`. I've used
`-Ztime-passes` for years but only recently learned about `-Ztime`.
What's the difference? Let's look at the `-Zhelp` output:
```
-Z time=val -- measure time of rustc processes (default: no)
-Z time-passes=val -- measure time of each rustc pass (default: no)
```
The `-Ztime-passes` description is clear, but the `-Ztime` one is less so.
Sounds like it measures the time for the entire process?
No. The real difference is that `-Ztime-passes` prints out info about passes,
and `-Ztime` does the same, but only for a subset of those passes. More
specifically, there is a distinction in the profiling code between a "verbose
generic activity" and an "extra verbose generic activity". `-Ztime-passes`
prints both kinds, while `-Ztime` only prints the first one. (It took me
a close reading of the source code to determine this difference.)
In practice this distinction has low value. Perhaps in the past the "extra
verbose" output was more voluminous, but now that we only print stats for a
pass if it exceeds 5ms or alters the RSS, `-Ztime-passes` is less spammy. Also,
a lot of the "extra verbose" cases are for individual lint passes, and you need
to also use `-Zno-interleave-lints` to see those anyway.
Therefore, this commit removes `-Ztime` and the associated machinery. One thing
to note is that the existing "extra verbose" activities all have an extra
string argument, so the commit adds the ability to accept an extra argument to
the "verbose" activities.
Migrate more of rustc_parse to SessionDiagnostic
Still far from complete, but I thought I'd add a checkpoint here because rebasing was starting to get annoying.
In #101230, the internal diagnostic migration lints -
`diagnostic_outside_of_impl` and `untranslatable_diagnostic` - were
modified so that they wouldn't trigger on functions annotated with
`#[rustc_lint_diagnostics]`. However, this change has to make it into
the bootstrap compiler before the `#[allow]` annotations that it aims to
remove can be removed, which is possible now that #102051 has landed.

Adapters like `Filter` and `Map` use the default implementation of `Iterator::last` which is not short-circuiting (and so does `core::str::Split`).

Add inline-llvm option for disabling/enabling LLVM inlining
In this PR, a new -Z option `inline-llvm` is added in order to be able to turn on/off LLVM inlining.
The capability of turning on/off inlining in LLVM backend is needed for testing performance implications of using recently enabled inlining in rustc's frontend (with -Z inline-mir=yes option, #91743). It would be interesting to see the performance effect using rustc's frontend inlining only without LLVM inlining enabled. Currently LLVM is still doing inlining no mater what value inline-mir is set to. With the option `inline-llvm` being added in this PR, user can turn off LLVM inlining by using `-Z inline-llvm=no` option (the default of inline-llvm is 'yes', LLVM inlining enabled).
This commit removes the allows rules for the SessionDiagnostic lint
that were being used in the session.rs file.
Thanks to the PR #101230 we do not need to annotate the methods with
the allow rule as they are part of the diagnostic machinery.

Support `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit|sig_dfl"]` on `fn main()` to prevent ignoring `SIGPIPE`
When enabled, programs don't have to explicitly handle `ErrorKind::BrokenPipe` any longer. Currently, the program
```rust
fn main() { loop { println!("hello world"); } }
```
will print an error if used with a short-lived pipe, e.g.
% ./main | head -n 1
hello world
thread 'main' panicked at 'failed printing to stdout: Broken pipe (os error 32)', library/std/src/io/stdio.rs:1016:9
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
by enabling `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` like this
```rust
#![feature(unix_sigpipe)]
#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]
fn main() { loop { println!("hello world"); } }
```
there is no error, because `SIGPIPE` will not be ignored and thus the program will be killed appropriately:
% ./main | head -n 1
hello world
The current libstd behaviour of ignoring `SIGPIPE` before `fn main()` can be explicitly requested by using `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_ign"]`.
With `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit"]`, no change at all is made to `SIGPIPE`, which typically means the behaviour will be the same as `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]`.

rustc_target: Add a compatibility layer to separate internal and user-facing linker flavors
I want to do some refactorings in `rustc_target` - merge `lld_flavor` and `linker_is_gnu` into `linker_flavor`, support combination gcc+lld (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/96827).

translations(rustc_session): migrates `rustc_session` to use `SessionDiagnostic` - Pt. 1
## Description
This is the first PR for the migration of the module `rustc_session`. You can follow my progress [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/100717#issuecomment-1220279883).
The PR migrates the files `cgu_reuse_tracker` and `parse.rs` to use `SessionDiagnostic `.
This makes it possible to instruct libstd to never touch the signal
handler for `SIGPIPE`, which makes programs pipeable by default (e.g.
with `./your-program | head -n 1`) without `ErrorKind::BrokenPipe`
errors.
Implementation of import_name_type
Fixes#96534 by implementing https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/525
Symbols that are exported or imported from a binary on 32bit x86 Windows can be named in four separate ways, corresponding to the [import name types](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/debug/pe-format#import-name-type) from the PE-COFF spec. The exporting and importing binaries must use the same name encoding, otherwise mismatches can lead to link failures due to "missing symbols" or to 0xc0000139 (`STATUS_ENTRYPOINT_NOT_FOUND`) errors when the executable/library is loaded. For details, see the comments on the raw-dylib feature's https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/58713. To generate the correct import libraries for these DLLs, therefore, rustc must know the import name type for each `extern` function, and there is currently no way for users to provide this information.
This change adds a new `MetaNameValueStr` key to the `#[link]` attribute called `import_name_type`, and which accepts one of three values: `decorated`, `noprefix`, and `undecorated`.
A single DLL is likely to export all its functions using the same import type name, hence `import_name_type` is a parameter of `#[link]` rather than being its own attribute that is applied per-function. It is possible to have a single DLL that exports different functions using different import name types, but users could express such cases by providing multiple export blocks for the same DLL, each with a different import name type.
Note: there is a fourth import name type defined in the PE-COFF spec, `IMPORT_ORDINAL`. This case is already handled by the `#[link_ordinal]` attribute. While it could be merged into `import_type_name`, that would not make sense as `#[link_ordinal]` provides per-function information (namely the ordinal itself).
Design decisions (these match the MCP linked above):
* For GNU, `decorated` matches the PE Spec and MSVC rather than the default behavior of `dlltool` (i.e., there will be a leading `_` for `stdcall`).
* If `import_name_type` is not present, we will keep our current behavior of matching the environment (MSVC vs GNU) default for decorating.
* Using `import_name_type` on architectures other than 32bit x86 will result in an error.
* Using `import_name_type` with link kinds other than `"raw-dylib"` will result in an error.

proc_macro: use crossbeam channels for the proc_macro cross-thread bridge

In addition, this introduces a -Z command-line option which will switch rustc to run proc-macros using this cross-thread executor. With the changes to the bridge in #98186, #98187, #98188 and #98189, the performance of the executor should be much closer to same-thread execution.
In local testing, the crossbeam executor was substantially more performant than either of the two existing `CrossThread` strategies, so they have been removed to keep things simple.

Some command-line options accessible through `sess.opts` are best
accessed through wrapper functions on `Session`, `TyCtxt` or otherwise,
rather than through field access on the option struct in the `Session`.
Adds a new lint which triggers on those options that should be accessed
through a wrapper function so that this is prohibited. Options are
annotated with a new attribute `rustc_lint_opt_deny_field_access` which
can specify the error message (i.e. "use this other function instead")
to be emitted.
A simpler alternative would be to simply rename the options in the
option type so that it is clear they should not be used, however this
doesn't prevent uses, just discourages them. Another alternative would
be to make the option fields private, and adding accessor functions on
the option types, however the wrapper functions sometimes rely on
additional state from `Session` or `TyCtxt` which wouldn't be available
in an function on the option type, so the accessor would simply make the
field available and its use would be discouraged too.

Add support for LLVM ShadowCallStack.
LLVMs ShadowCallStack provides backward edge control flow integrity protection by using a separate shadow stack to store and retrieve a function's return address.
LLVM currently only supports this for AArch64 targets. The x18 register is used to hold the pointer to the shadow stack, and therefore this only works on ABIs which reserve x18. Further details are available in the [LLVM ShadowCallStack](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ShadowCallStack.html) docs.
# Usage
`-Zsanitizer=shadow-call-stack`
# Comments/Caveats
* Currently only enabled for the aarch64-linux-android target
* Requires the platform to define a runtime to initialize the shadow stack, see the [LLVM docs](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ShadowCallStack.html) for more detail.
Allow to disable thinLTO buffer to support lto-embed-bitcode lld feature
Hello
This change is to fix issue (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/84395) in which passing "-lto-embed-bitcode=optimized" to lld when linking rust code via linker-plugin-lto doesn't produce the expected result.
Instead of emitting a single unified module into a llvmbc section of the linked elf, it emits multiple submodules.
This is caused because rustc emits the BC modules after running llvm `createWriteThinLTOBitcodePass` pass.
Which in turn triggers a thinLTO linkage and causes the said issue.
This patch allows via compiler flag (-Cemit-thin-lto=<bool>) to select between running `createWriteThinLTOBitcodePass` and `createBitcodeWriterPass`.
Note this pattern of selecting between those 2 passes is common inside of LLVM code.
The default is to match the old behavior.
