Implement NOOP_METHOD_CALL lint
Implements the beginnings of https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/67 - a lint for detecting noop method calls (e.g, calling `<&T as Clone>::clone()` when `T: !Clone`).
This PR does not fully realize the vision and has a few limitations that need to be addressed either before merging or in subsequent PRs:
* [ ] No UFCS support
* [ ] The warning message is pretty plain
* [ ] Doesn't work for `ToOwned`
The implementation uses [`Instance::resolve`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_middle/ty/instance/struct.Instance.html#method.resolve) which is normally later in the compiler. It seems that there are some invariants that this function relies on that we try our best to respect. For instance, it expects substitutions to have happened, which haven't yet performed, but we check first for `needs_subst` to ensure we're dealing with a monomorphic type.
Thank you to ```@davidtwco,``` ```@Aaron1011,``` and ```@wesleywiser``` for helping me at various points through out this PR ❤️.
Make ptr::write const
~~The code in this PR as of right now is not much more than an experiment.~~
~~This should, if I am not mistaken, in theory compile and pass the tests once the bootstraping compiler is updated. Thus the PR is blocked on that which should happen some time after the February the 9th. Also we might want to wait for #79989 to avoid regressing performance due to using `mem::forget` over `intrinsics::forget`~~.
Add tests for Atomic*::fetch_{min,max}
This ensures that all atomic operations except for fences are tested. This has been useful to test my work on using atomic instructions for atomic operations in cg_clif instead of a global lock.
Implement RFC 2580: Pointer metadata & VTable
RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2580
~~Before merging this PR:~~
* [x] Wait for the end of the RFC’s [FCP to merge](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2580#issuecomment-759145278).
* [x] Open a tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81513
* [x] Update `#[unstable]` attributes in the PR with the tracking issue number

This PR extends the language with a new lang item for the `Pointee` trait which is special-cased in trait resolution to implement it for all types. Even in generic contexts, parameters can be assumed to implement it without a corresponding bound.
For this I mostly imitated what the compiler was already doing for the `DiscriminantKind` trait. I’m very unfamiliar with compiler internals, so careful review is appreciated.
This PR also extends the standard library with new unstable APIs in `core::ptr` and `std::ptr`:
```rust
pub trait Pointee {
/// One of `()`, `usize`, or `DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
type Metadata: Copy + Send + Sync + Ord + Hash + Unpin;
}
pub trait Thin = Pointee<Metadata = ()>;
pub const fn metadata<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> <T as Pointee>::Metadata {}
pub const fn from_raw_parts<T: ?Sized>(*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *const T {}
pub const fn from_raw_parts_mut<T: ?Sized>(*mut (),<T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *mut T {}
impl<T: ?Sized> NonNull<T> {
pub const fn from_raw_parts(NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> NonNull<T> {}
/// Convenience for `(ptr.cast(), metadata(ptr))`
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*mut (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
/// `<dyn SomeTrait as Pointee>::Metadata == DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
pub struct DynMetadata<Dyn: ?Sized> {
// Private pointer to vtable
}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> DynMetadata<Dyn> {
pub fn size_of(self) -> usize {}
pub fn align_of(self) -> usize {}
pub fn layout(self) -> crate::alloc::Layout {}
}
unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Send for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Sync for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Debug for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Unpin for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Copy for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Clone for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Eq for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> PartialEq for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Ord for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> PartialOrd for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Hash for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
```
API differences from the RFC, in areas noted as unresolved questions in the RFC:
* Module-level functions instead of associated `from_raw_parts` functions on `*const T` and `*mut T`, following the precedent of `null`, `slice_from_raw_parts`, etc.
* Added `to_raw_parts`
The use of module-level functions instead of associated functions
on `<*const T>` or `<*mut T>` follows the precedent of
`ptr::slice_from_raw_parts` and `ptr::slice_from_raw_parts_mut`.
Stabilize by-value `[T; N]` iterator `core::array::IntoIter`
Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/65798
This is unblocked now that `min_const_generics` has been stabilized in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79135.
This PR does *not* include the corresponding `IntoIterator` impl, which is https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/65819. Instead, an iterator can be constructed through the `new` method.
`new` would become unnecessary when `IntoIterator` is implemented and might be deprecated then, although it will stay stable.
Add `unwrap_unchecked()` methods for `Option` and `Result`
In particular:
- `unwrap_unchecked()` for `Option`.
- `unwrap_unchecked()` and `unwrap_err_unchecked()` for `Result`.
These complement other `*_unchecked()` methods in `core` etc.
Currently there are a couple of places it may be used inside rustc (`LinkedList`, `BTree`). It is also easy to find other repositories with similar functionality.
Fixes#48278.
TrustedRandomAaccess specialization composes incorrectly for nested iter::Zips
I found this while working on improvements for TRA.
After partially consuming a Zip adapter and then wrapping it into another Zip where the adapters use their `TrustedRandomAccess` specializations leads to the outer adapter returning elements which should have already been consumed.
If the optimizer gets tripped up by the addition this might affect performance for chained `zip()` iterators even when the inner one is not partially advanced but it would require more extensive fixes to `TrustedRandomAccess` to communicate those offsets earlier.
Included test fails on nightly, [playground link](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=24fa1edf8a104ff31f5a24830593b01f)
Add Iterator::intersperse_with
This is a follow-up to #79479, tracking in #79524, as discussed https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79479#issuecomment-752671731.
~~Note that I had to manually implement `Clone` and `Debug` because `derive` insists on placing a `Clone`-bound on the struct-definition, which is too narrow. There is a long-standing issue # for this somewhere around here :-)~~
Also, note that I refactored the guts of `Intersperse` into private functions and re-used them in `IntersperseWith`, so I also went light on duplicating all the tests.
If this is suitable to be merged, the tracking issue should be updated, since it only mentions `intersperse`.
Happy New Year!
