[breaking-change] for lint authors
You must now implement LateLintPass or EarlyLintPass as well as LintPass and use either register_late_lint_pass or register_early_lint_pass, rather than register_lint_pass.
There is a minor [breaking-change] for lint authors - some functions which were previously defined on `lint::Context` have moved to a trait - `LintContext`, you may need to import that trait to avoid name resolution errors.
Currently, `early_error` and `early_warn` in `librustc::session` always
use `ColorConfig::Auto`. Modify them to follow the color configuration
set by the `--color` option.
As colored output is also printed during the early stage, parsing the
`--color` option should be done as early as possible. However, there are
still some cases when the output needs to be colored before knowing the
exact color settings. In these cases, it will be defaulted to
`ColorConfig::Auto`, which is the same as before.
Fixes#27879.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1193][rfc] which adds the ability to
the compiler to cap the lint level for the entire compilation session. This flag
will ensure that no lints will go above this level, and Cargo will primarily use
this flag passing `--cap-lints allow` to all upstream dependencies.

and deprecate/remove unsigned_negation lint.
This is useful to avoid causing breaking changes in case #![deny(unknown_lints)]
is used and lint is removed.
It now says '#[feature] may not be used on the stable release channel'.
I had to convert this error from a lint to a normal compiler error.
I left the lint previously-used for this in place since removing it is
a breaking change. It will just go unused until the end of time.
Fixes#24125
* The lint visitor's visit_ty method did not recurse, and had a
reference to the now closed#10894
* The newly enabled recursion has only affected the `deprectated` lint
which now detects uses of deprecated items in trait impls and
function return types
* Renamed some references to `CowString` and `CowVec` to `Cow<str>` and
`Cow<[T]>`, respectively, which appear outside of the crate which
defines them
* Replaced a few instances of `InvariantType<T>` with
`PhantomData<Cell<T>>`
* Disabled the `deprecated` lint in several places that
reference/implement traits on deprecated items which will get cleaned
up in the future
* Disabled the `exceeding_bitshifts` lint for
compile-fail/huge-array-simple test so it doesn't shadow the expected
error on 32bit systems
* Unfortunately, this means that if a library declares
`#![deny(deprecated)]` and marks anything as deprecated, it will have
to disable the lint for any uses of said item, e.g. any impl the now
deprecated item
For any library that denies deprecated items but has deprecated items
of its own, this is a [breaking-change]
This pulls out the implementations of most built-in lints into a
separate crate, to reduce edit-compile-test iteration times with
librustc_lint and increase parallelism. This should enable lints to be
refactored, added and deleted much more easily as it slashes the
edit-compile cycle to get a minimal working compiler to test with (`make
rustc-stage1`) from
librustc -> librustc_typeck -> ... -> librustc_driver ->
libcore -> ... -> libstd
to
librustc_lint -> librustc_driver -> libcore -> ... libstd
which is significantly faster, mainly due to avoiding the librustc build
itself.
The intention would be to move as much as possible of the infrastructure
into the crate too, but the plumbing is deeply intertwined with librustc
itself at the moment. Also, there are lints for which diagnostics are
registered directly in the compiler code, not in their own crate
traversal, and their definitions have to remain in librustc.
This is a [breaking-change] for direct users of the compiler APIs:
callers of `rustc::session::build_session` or
`rustc::session::build_session_` need to manually call
`rustc_lint::register_builtins` on their return value.
This should make #22206 easier.
This allows warning or forbidding all uses of unsafe code, whereas
previously only unsafe blocks were caught by the lint.
The lint has been renamed from `unsafe-blocks` to `unsafe-code` to
reflect its new purpose.
This is a minor [breaking-change]
Closes#22430
Checks include declaration/implementation of unsafe functions, traits,
and methods.

This renames the PrivateNoMangleFns lint to allow both to happen in a
single pass, since they do roughly the same work.

Open questions:
[ ]: Do the tests actually pass (I'm running make check and running out the door now)
[ ]: Is the name of this lint ok. it seems to mostly be fine with [convention](cc53afbe5d/text/0344-conventions-galore.md (lints))
[ ]: I'm not super thrilled about the warning text

E.g. `fn foo() { foo() }`, or, more subtlely
impl Foo for Box<Foo+'static> {
fn bar(&self) {
self.bar();
}
}
The compiler will warn and point out the points where recursion occurs,
if it determines that the function cannot return without calling itself.
Closes#17899.
This gets rid of the 'experimental' level, removes the non-staged_api
case (i.e. stability levels for out-of-tree crates), and lets the
staged_api attributes use 'unstable' and 'deprecated' lints.
This makes the transition period to the full feature staging design
a bit nicer.
