Add target thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc
This is an early draft of support for Windows/ARM. To test it,
1. Install Visual Studio 2017 and Windows SDK version 17134.
1. Obtain alexcrichton/xz2-rs#35, rust-lang-nursery/compiler-builtins#256, and the fix for [LLVM Bug 38620](https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38620).
2. Open a command prompt and run
```
set CC_thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.11.25503\bin\HostX64\arm\CL.exe
set CFLAGS_thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc=/D_ARM_WINAPI_PARTITION_DESKTOP_SDK_AVAILABLE=1 /nologo
c:\python27\python.exe x.py build --host x86_64-pc-windows-msvc --build x86_64-pc-windows-msvc --target thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc
```
It will build the stage 2 compiler, but fail building stage 2 test. To build an executable targeting windows/arm,
1. Copy `build\x86_64-pc-windows-msvc\stage0\bin\cargo.exe` to `build\x86_64-pc-windows-msvc\stage2\bin`
2. Open a command prompt and run
```
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat"
set PATH=build\x86_64-pc-windows-msvc\stage2\bin;%PATH%
cargo new hello
cd hello
cargo build --target thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc –release
```
Copy target\thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc\release\hello.exe to your platform and run.
There are a number of open issues that I'm hoping to get help with:
- Error when compiling the `test` crate: `error: cannot link together two panic runtimes: panic_abort and panic_unwind`
- Warnings when building the compiler_builtins crate: `warning: cl : Command line warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option '-fvisibility=hidden'`. It looks like the build system is passing GCC-style flags to MSVC.
- How to specify the LIBPATH entries for ARM. Right now they are hardcoded as absolute paths in the target spec.
This pull request depends on
- alexcrichton/xz2-rs#35 - update vcxproj to Visual Studio 2017
- rust-lang-nursery/compiler-builtins#256 - fix compile errors when building for windows/arm
- [Bug 38620 - ARM: Incorrect COFF relocation type for thumb bl instruction](https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38620)
This PR updates #52659
This commit adds the necessary definitions for target specs and such as well as
the necessary support in libstd to compile basic `aarch64-pc-windows-msvc`
binaries. The target is not currently built on CI, but it can be built locally
with:
./configure --target=aarch64-pc-windows-msvc --set rust.lld
./x.py build src/libstd --target aarch64-pc-windows-msvc
Currently this fails to build `libtest` due to a linker bug (seemingly in LLD?)
which hasn't been investigate yet. Otherwise though with libstd you can build a
hello world program (linked with LLD). I've not tried to execute it yet, but it
at least links!
Full support for this target is still a long road ahead, but this is hopefully a
good stepping stone to get started.
Points of note about this target are:
* Currently defaults to `panic=abort` as support is still landing in LLVM for
SEH on AArch64.
* Currently defaults to LLD as a linker as I was able to get farther with it
than I was with `link.exe`
This commit applies a few code size optimizations for the wasm target to
the standard library, namely around panics. We notably know that in most
configurations it's impossible for us to print anything in
wasm32-unknown-unknown so we can skip larger portions of panicking that
are otherwise simply informative. This allows us to get quite a nice
size reduction.
Finally we can also tweak where the allocation happens for the
`Box<Any>` that we panic with. By only allocating once unwinding starts
we can reduce the size of a panicking wasm module from 44k to 350 bytes.
You can now choose between the following:
- `#[unwind(allowed)]`
- `#[unwind(aborts)]`
Per rust-lang/rust#48251, the default is `#[unwind(allowed)]`, though
I think we should change this eventually.
CloudABI uses LLVM's libunwind for stack unwinding. There was a small
bug that went by unnoticed, namely that it was not built with -fno-rtti.
This caused it to (indirectly) depend on the entire C++ runtime.
Now that that issue has been resolved, it is also perfectly fine to make
use of this library for programming languages other than C++.
This commit adds a new target to the compiler: wasm32-unknown-unknown. This
target is a reimagining of what it looks like to generate WebAssembly code from
Rust. Instead of using Emscripten which can bring with it a weighty runtime this
instead is a target which uses only the LLVM backend for WebAssembly and a
"custom linker" for now which will hopefully one day be direct calls to lld.
Notable features of this target include:
* There is zero runtime footprint. The target assumes nothing exists other than
the wasm32 instruction set.
* There is zero toolchain footprint beyond adding the target. No custom linker
is needed, rustc contains everything.
* Very small wasm modules can be generated directly from Rust code using this
target.
* Most of the standard library is stubbed out to return an error, but anything
related to allocation works (aka `HashMap`, `Vec`, etc).
* Naturally, any `#[no_std]` crate should be 100% compatible with this new
target.
This target is currently somewhat janky due to how linking works. The "linking"
is currently unconditional whole program LTO (aka LLVM is being used as a
linker). Naturally that means compiling programs is pretty slow! Eventually
though this target should have a linker.
This target is also intended to be quite experimental. I'm hoping that this can
act as a catalyst for further experimentation in Rust with WebAssembly. Breaking
changes are very likely to land to this target, so it's not recommended to rely
on it in any critical capacity yet. We'll let you know when it's "production
ready".
---
Currently testing-wise this target is looking pretty good but isn't complete.
I've got almost the entire `run-pass` test suite working with this target (lots
of tests ignored, but many passing as well). The `core` test suite is still
getting LLVM bugs fixed to get that working and will take some time. Relatively
simple programs all seem to work though!
---
It's worth nothing that you may not immediately see the "smallest possible wasm
module" for the input you feed to rustc. For various reasons it's very difficult
to get rid of the final "bloat" in vanilla rustc (again, a real linker should
fix all this). For now what you'll have to do is:
cargo install --git https://github.com/alexcrichton/wasm-gc
wasm-gc foo.wasm bar.wasm
And then `bar.wasm` should be the smallest we can get it!
---
In any case for now I'd love feedback on this, particularly on the various
integration points if you've got better ideas of how to approach them!
This commit removes a few calls to panic and/or assert in `rust_eh_personality`.
This function definitely can't itself panic (that'd probably segfault or do
something else weird) and I was also noticing that a `pub extern fn foo() {}`
cdylib was abnormally large. Turns out all that size was the panicking machinery
brought in by the personality function!
The change here is to return a `Result` internally so we can bubble up the fatal
error, eventually translating to the appropriate error code for the libunwind
ABI.
Remove not(stage0) from deny(warnings)
Historically this was done to accommodate bugs in lints, but there hasn't been a
bug in a lint since this feature was added which the warnings affected. Let's
completely purge warnings from all our stages by denying warnings in all stages.
This will also assist in tracking down `stage0` code to be removed whenever
we're updating the bootstrap compiler.

The `mipsel` `target_arch` was introduced with the initial MIPSel
support (rust-lang/rust@82ec1aef29),
but was subsequently removed with implementation of the Flexible Target
Specification (Rust RFC 0131,
rust-lang/rust@3a8f4ec32a).
This is the only remaining instance in rustc. All others are in the libc
repo, and are fixed in rust-lang/libc@b3676593f6.
This involves hacking the code used to run cargo test on various
packages, because it reads Cargo.lock to determine which packages should
be tested. This change implements a blacklist, since that will catch new
crates when they are added in the future.
This adds support for building the Rust compiler and standard
library for s390x-linux, allowing a full cross-bootstrap sequence
to complete. This includes:
- Makefile/configure changes to allow native s390x builds
- Full Rust compiler support for the s390x C ABI
(only the non-vector ABI is supported at this point)
- Port of the standard library to s390x
- Update the liblibc submodule to a version including s390x support
- Testsuite fixes to allow clean "make check" on s390x
Caveats:
- Resets base cpu to "z10" to bring support in sync with the default
behaviour of other compilers on the platforms. (Usually, upstream
supports all older processors; a distribution build may then chose
to require a more recent base version.) (Also, using zEC12 causes
failures in the valgrind tests since valgrind doesn't fully support
this CPU yet.)
- z13 vector ABI is not yet supported. To ensure compatible code
generation, the -vector feature is passed to LLVM. Note that this
means that even when compiling for z13, no vector instructions
will be used. In the future, support for the vector ABI should be
added (this will require common code support for different ABIs
that need different data_layout strings on the same platform).
- Two test cases are (temporarily) ignored on s390x to allow passing
the test suite. The underlying issues still need to be fixed:
* debuginfo/simd.rs fails because of incorrect debug information.
This seems to be a LLVM bug (also seen with C code).
* run-pass/union/union-basic.rs simply seems to be incorrect for
all big-endian platforms.
