Boolean values and small aggregates have a different type in args/allocas than
in SSA values but the intrinsics for volatile and atomic ops were
missing the necessary casts to handle that.
Fixes#23550
After this patch code like `let ref a = *"abcdef"` doesn't cause ICE anymore.
Required for #23121
There are still places in rustc_trans where pointers are always assumed to be thin. In particular, #19064 is not resolved by this patch.

This patch changes the type of byte string literals from `&[u8]` to `&[u8; N]`.
It also implements some necessary traits (`IntoBytes`, `Seek`, `Read`, `BufRead`) for fixed-size arrays (also related to #21725) and adds test for #17233, which seems to be resolved.
Fixes#18465

Safe fns are no longer subtypes of unsafe fns, but you can coerce from one to the other.
This is a [breaking-change] in that impl fns must now be declared `unsafe` if the trait is declared `unsafe`. In some rare cases, the subtyping change may also direct affect you, but no such cases were encountered in practice.
Fixes#23449.

This upcast coercion currently never requires vtable changes. It should be generalized.
This is a [breaking-change] -- if you have an impl on an object type like `impl SomeTrait`, then this will no longer be applicable to object types like `SomeTrait+Send`. In the standard library, this primarily affected `Any`, and this PR adds impls for `Any+Send` as to keep the API the same in practice. An alternate workaround is to use UFCS form or standalone fns. For more details, see <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/18737#issuecomment-78450798>.

This upcast coercion currently preserves the vtable for the object, but
eventually it can be used to create a derived vtable. The upcast
coercion is not introduced into method dispatch; see comment on #18737
for information about why. Fixes#18737.
This removes the error case of the compression functions, the only errors that
can occur are incorrect parameters or an out-of-memory condition, both of which
are handled with panics in Rust.
Also introduces an extensible `Error` type instead of returning an `Option`.
In case that there is a destination for the array, like in
"let x = [expr; n]", we currently don't evaluate the given expression if
n is zero. That's inconsistent with all other cases, including "[expr;
0]" without a destination.
Fixes#23354
When this attribute is applied to a function, its return value gets the
noalias attribute, which is how you tell LLVM that the function returns
a \"new\" pointer that doesn't alias anything accessible to the caller,
i.e. it acts like a memory allocator.
Plain malloc doesn't need this attribute because LLVM already knows
about malloc and adds the attribute itself.

The end result is that common fields (id, name, attributes, etc.) are stored in now-structures `ImplItem` and `TraitItem`.
The signature of a method is no longer duplicated between methods with a body (default/impl) and those without, they now share `MethodSig`.
This is also a [breaking-change] because of minor bugfixes and changes to syntax extensions:
* `pub fn` methods in a trait no longer parse - remove the `pub`, it has no meaning anymore
* `MacResult::make_methods` is now `make_impl_items` and the return type has changed accordingly
* `quote_method` is gone, because `P<ast::Method>` doesn't exist and it couldn't represent a full method anyways - could be replaced by `quote_impl_item`/`quote_trait_item` in the future, but I do hope we realize how silly that combinatorial macro expansion is and settle on a single `quote` macro + some type hints - or just no types at all (only token-trees)
r? @nikomatsakis This is necessary (hopefully also sufficient) for associated constants.
With this PR in-place constants are handled correctly with respect to debug location assignment.
The PR also adds an (unrelated) test case for debug locations in `extern \"C\"` functions.

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 563][rfc] which adds a new
`cfg(debug_assertions)` directive which is specially recognized and calculated
by the compiler. The flag is turned off at any optimization level greater than 1
and may also be explicitly controlled through the `-C debug-assertions`
flag.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/563
The `debug_assert!` and `debug_assert_eq!` macros now respect this instead of
the `ndebug` variable and `ndebug` no longer holds any meaning to the standard
library.
Code which was previously relying on `not(ndebug)` to gate expensive code should
be updated to rely on `debug_assertions` instead.
Closes#22492

The main gist of this PR is commit 1077efb which removes the list of supertraits from the `TraitDef` and pulls them into a separate table, which is accessed via `lookup_super_predicates`. This is analogous to `lookup_predicates`, which gets the complete where clause. This allows us to create the `TraitDef`, which contains the list generics and so forth, without fully knowing the list of supertraits. This in turn allows the *supertrait listing* to contain references to associated types like `<Self as Foo>::Item`, which were previously impossible because conversion required having the `TraitDef` for `Foo`.
We do not yet support `Self::Item` in a supertrait listing. This doesn't work because to convert that, it attempts to expand out the full set of supertraits, which are in the process of being created. This could potentially be worked out by having the expansion of supertraits proceed in a lazy fashion, but we'd have to define shadowing rules for associated types which we don't currently have.
Along the way (in 9de9ec5) I also removed the restriction against duplicate bounds and generalized the code so that it can handle having the same supertrait multiple times with different arguments, e.g. `Foo : Bar<i32> + Bar<u32>`. This restriction was serving no particular purpose, since the same trait could be extended multiple times indirectly, and in the era of multidispatch it is actively harmful.
This is technically a [breaking-change] because it affects the definition of a super-trait. Anything in a where clause that looks like `where Self : Foo` is now considered a supertrait. Because cycles are disallowed in supertraits, that could lead to some errors. This has not been observed in any existing code.

Automatic has-same-types testing methodology can be found in #22501.
Because most of them don't work with `--pretty=typed`, compile-fail tests were manually audited.

This commit deprecates the majority of std::old_io::fs in favor of std::fs and
its new functionality. Some functions remain non-deprecated but are now behind a
feature gate called `old_fs`. These functions will be deprecated once
suitable replacements have been implemented.
The compiler has been migrated to new `std::fs` and `std::path` APIs where
appropriate as part of this change.
