As with the previous commit, this is targeted at removing the possibility of
collisions between statics. The main use case here is when there's a
type-parametric function with an inner static that's compiled as a library.
Before this commit, any impl would generate a path item of "__extensions__".
This changes this identifier to be a "pretty name", which is either the last
element of the path of the trait implemented or the last element of the type's
path that's being implemented. That doesn't quite cut it though, so the (trait,
type) pair is hashed and again used to append information to the symbol.
Essentially, __extensions__ was removed for something nicer for debugging, and
then some more information was added to symbol name by including a hash of the
trait being implemented and type it's being implemented for. This should prevent
colliding names for inner statics in regular functions with similar names.
Before, the path name for all items defined in methods of traits and impls never
took into account the name of the method. This meant that if you had two statics
of the same name in two different methods the statics would end up having the
same symbol named (even after mangling) because the path components leading to
the symbol were exactly the same (just __extensions__ and the static name).
It turns out that if you add the symbol "A" twice to LLVM, it automatically
makes the second one "A1" instead of "A". What this meant is that in local crate
compilations we never found this bug. Even across crates, this was never a
problem. The problem arises when you have generic methods that don't get
generated at compile-time of a library. If the statics were re-added to LLVM by
a client crate of a library in a different order, you would reference different
constants (the integer suffixes wouldn't be guaranteed to be the same).
This fixes the problem by adding the method name to symbol path when building
the ast_map. In doing so, two symbols in two different methods are disambiguated
against.
We already do this for libstd tests automatically, and compiletest runs into the
same problems where when forking lots of processes lots of file descriptors are
created. On OSX we can use specific syscalls to raise the limits, in this
situation, though.
Closes#8904
I think this fixes 8898. I'm a bit unsure about how slices and owned pointers to vectors-of-unit already worked, but since they were already working, I didn't mess with them.
An iterator that simply calls `.read_bytes()` each iteration.
I think choosing to own the Reader value and implementing Decorator to
allow extracting it is the most generically useful. The Reader type
variable can of course be some kind of reference type that implements
Reader.
Address discussion with acrichto; inherit DoubleEndedIterator so that
`.rposition()` can be a default method, and that the nische of the trait
is clear. Use assertions when using `.size_hint()` in reverse enumerate
and `.rposition()`
In this commit I:
- removed unneeded heap allocations
- added extra whitespace to crowded expressions
- and removed unneeded syntax
Also, CC @bblum although this change is fairly unobjectionable.
Summary:
-removed "ne" methods in libstd and librustpkg
-made default "ne" be inlined
-made one of the "eq" methods in librustpkg follow more standard parameter naming convention
