This comes with a number of fixes to be compatible with upstream LLVM:
* Previously all monomorphizations of "mem::size_of()" would receive the same
symbol. In the past LLVM would silently rename duplicated symbols, but it
appears to now be dropping the duplicate symbols and functions now. The symbol
names of monomorphized functions are now no longer solely based on the type of
the function, but rather the type and the unique hash for the
monomorphization.
* Split stacks are no longer a global feature controlled by a flag in LLVM.
Instead, they are opt-in on a per-function basis through a function attribute.
The rust #[no_split_stack] attribute will disable this, otherwise all
functions have #[split_stack] attached to them.
* The compare and swap instruction now takes two atomic orderings, one for the
successful case and one for the failure case. LLVM internally has an
implementation of calculating the appropriate failure ordering given a
particular success ordering (previously only a success ordering was
specified), and I copied that into the intrinsic translation so the failure
ordering isn't supplied on a source level for now.
* Minor tweaks to LLVM's API in terms of debuginfo, naming, c++11 conventions,
etc.
These two containers are indeed collections, so their place is in
libcollections, not in libstd. There will always be a hash map as part of the
standard distribution of Rust, but by moving it out of the standard library it
makes libstd that much more portable to more platforms and environments.
This conveniently also removes the stuttering of 'std::hashmap::HashMap',
although 'collections::HashMap' is only one character shorter.
also removes the unused `FastInvoke` wrapper, as it's never actually
going to be used (we can't *partially* switch to `fastcc`, and this is
only used for Rust functions)
Since function pointers do not carry along the function attributes with
them in the type, this needs to be set on the call instruction itself.
Closes#9152
.with_c_str() is a replacement for the old .as_c_str(), to avoid
unnecessary boilerplate.
Replace all usages of .to_c_str().with_ref() with .with_c_str().
* LLVM now has a C interface to LLVMBuildAtomicRMW
* The exception handling support for the JIT seems to have been dropped
* Various interfaces have been added or headers have changed
