This stops the compiler ICEing on the use of SIMD types in FFI signatures. It emits correct code for LLVM intrinsics, but I am quite unsure about the ABI handling in general so I've added a new feature gate `simd_ffi` to try to ensure people don't use it without realising there's a non-trivial risk of codegen brokenness.
Closes#20043.
Loading methods from external crates was erroneously using the type's privacy
for each method instead of each method's privacy. This commit fixes that.
Closes#21202
This commit also moves privacy to its own crate because I thought that was where the bug was. Turns out it wasn't, but it helped me iterate at least!
I don't know if this handling of SIMD types is correct for the C ABI on
all platforms, so lets add an even finer feature gate than just the
`simd` one.
The `simd` one can be used with (relatively) little risk of complete
nonsense, the reason for it is that it is likely that things will
change. Using the types in FFI with an incorrect ABI will at best give
absolute nonsense results, but possibly cause serious breakage too, so
this is a step up in badness, hence a new feature gate.
This just compiles a test using SIMD in FFI (mostly importing LLVM
intrinsics) for almost all rustc's supported platforms, but not linking
it or running it, so there's absolutely no guarantee that this is correct.
For a call like `foo.bar()` where the method `bar` can't be resolved,
the compiler will search for traits that have methods with name `bar` to
give a more informative error, providing a list of possibilities.
Closes#7643.
With the addition of separate search paths to the compiler, it was intended that
applications such as Cargo could require a `--extern` flag per `extern crate`
directive in the source. The system can currently be subverted, however, due to
the `existing_match()` logic in the crate loader.
When loading crates we first attempt to match an `extern crate` directive
against all previously loaded crates to avoid reading metadata twice. This "hit
the cache if possible" step was erroneously leaking crates across the search
path boundaries, however. For example:
extern crate b;
extern crate a;
If `b` depends on `a`, then it will load crate `a` when the `extern crate b`
directive is being processed. When the compiler reaches `extern crate a` it will
use the previously loaded version no matter what. If the compiler was not
invoked with `-L crate=path/to/a`, it will still succeed.
This behavior is allowing `extern crate` declarations in Cargo without a
corresponding declaration in the manifest of a dependency, which is considered
a bug.
This commit fixes this problem by keeping track of the origin search path for a
crate. Crates loaded from the dependency search path are not candidates for
crates which are loaded from the crate search path.

As a result of this fix, this is a likely a breaking change for a number of
Cargo packages. If the compiler starts informing that a crate can no longer be
found, it likely means that the dependency was forgotten in your Cargo.toml.

Closes#21202
If `a.method();` can't be resolved, we first look for implemented traits
globally and suggest those. If there are no such traits found, we only
then fall back to suggesting from the unfiltered list of traits.
While it's unstable and will probably be replaced or "reformed" at some point, it's useful in the mean time to be able to introspect the type system when debugging, and not be limited to sized types.
Fixes#21058
There are two places left where we used to only know the byte
size of/offset into an array and had to cast to i8 and back to get the
right addresses. But by now, we always know the sizes in terms of the
number of elements in the array. In fact we have to add an extra Mul
instruction so we can use the weird cast-to-u8 code. So we should really
just embrace our new knowledge and use simple GEPs to do the address
calculations.
Fixes#3729
Add `--xpretty flowgraph,unlabelled` variant to the (unstable) flowgraph printing `rustc` option.
This makes the tests much easier to maintain; the particular details of the labels attached to exiting scopes is not worth the effort required to keep it up to date as things change in the compiler internals.
Refactor compare_impl_method into its own file. Modify the
code to stop comparing individual parameter bounds.
Instead we now use the predicates list attached to the trait
and implementation generics. This ensures consistency even
when bounds are declared in different places (i.e on
a parameter vs. in a where clause).
