cc #4183 (not a fix, but related)
This pull request removes some mut-fields from at_vec, str, vec, unstable, and cell. Sadly in case of Cell this required using either transmute_mut (2 instances) or changing the interface. I chose the former. Perhaps it would be a good idea to merge Cell and Option, and take that opportunity to change the interface to use '&mut self' instead of '&self' (which would enable removing the transmutations) for take and put_back.

This naming is free now that `oldmap` has finally been removed, so this is a search-and-replace to take advantage of that. It might as well be called `HashMap` instead of being named after the specific implementation, since there's only one.
SipHash distributes keys so well that I don't think there will ever be much need to use anything but a simple hash table with open addressing. If there *is* a better way to do it, it will probably be better in all cases and can just be the default implementation.
A cuckoo-hashing implementation combining a weaker hash with SipHash could be useful, but that won't be as general purpose - you would need to write a separate fast hash function specialized for the type to really take advantage of it (like taking a page from libstdc++/libc++ and just using the integer value as the "hash"). I think a more specific naming for a truly alternative implementation like that would be fine, with the nice naming reserved for the general purpose container.
When I submitted #5659, it apparently caused some test failures. Then, because I left it in my incoming rather than making a new branch, I deleted my commit.
Let's try this again, this time, with its own branch so that I don't screw it up.

It seems nobody can figure out whether this is _supposed to_ make a difference anymore, and in testing it seems to work either way, so I removed it. One less alarming warning during a fresh build.
@nikomatsakis and I were talking about how the serializers were a bit too complicated. None of the users of With the `emit_option` and `read_option` functions, the serializers are now moving more high level. This patch series continues that trend. I've removed support for emitting specific string and vec types, and added support for emitting mapping types.
I believe this patch incorporates all expected syntax changes from extern
function reform (#3678). You can now write things like:
extern "<abi>" fn foo(s: S) -> T { ... }
extern "<abi>" mod { ... }
extern "<abi>" fn(S) -> T
The ABI for foreign functions is taken from this syntax (rather than from an
annotation). We support the full ABI specification I described on the mailing
list. The correct ABI is chosen based on the target architecture.
Calls by pointer to C functions are not yet supported, and the Rust type of
crust fns is still *u8.
Before it wouldn't warn about unused imports in the list if something in the list was used. These commits fix that case, add a test, and remove all unused imports in lists of imports throughout the compiler.
As far as I can tell, this doesn't make rust compile any
faster, but it does at least remove one level of indirection
on malloc, which might help speed up some operations.
@nikomatsakis pointed out that `fn read_option<T>(&self, f: &fn() -> T) -> Option<T>` should have this syntax so it can work with custom option types: `fn read_option<T>(&self, f: &fn(bool) -> T) -> T`.
Also, this also includes some `#[inline(always)]` on the memory functions in `src/libcore/unstable/lang.rs` to reduce one level of indirection when allocating memory.

This is needed so that hash tables can require strict equality but not require types to be ordered. It's a subset of the functionality of `TotalOrd` so I made that inherit from `TotalEq`.
- Most functions that used to return `~[~str]` for a list of substrings got turned into iterators over `&str` slices
- Some cleanup of apis, docs and code layout
This currently requires workarounds for the borrow checker not being flow-sensitive for `LinearMap` and `TrieMap`, but it can already be expressed for `TreeMap` and `SmallIntMap` without that.
Kills some warnings, and implements str::each_char_reverse so that it actually iterates. The test case wasn't detecting a failure, since the loop body was never executed.
This is a minor step towards #3571, although I'm sure there's still more work to be done. Previously, `fmt!` collected a bunch of strings in a vector and then called `str::concat`. This changes the behavior by maintaining only one buffer and appending directly into that buffer. This avoids doubly-allocating memory, and it has the added bonus of reducing some allocations in `core::unstable::extfmt`
One of the unfortunate side effects of this is that the `rt` module in `extfmt.rs` had to be duplicated to avoid `stage0` errors. Dealing with the change in conversion functions may require a bit of a dance when a snapshot happens, but I think it's doable.
If the second speedup commit isn't deemed necessary, I got about a 15% speedup with just the first patch which doesn't require any modification of `extfmt.rs`, so no snapshot weirdness.
Here's some other things I ran into when looking at `fmt!`:
* I don't think that #2249 is relevant any more except for maybe removing one of `%i` or `%d`
* I'm not sure what was in mind for using traits with #3571, but I thought that formatters like `%u` could invoke the `to_uint()` method on the `NumCast` trait, but I ran into some problems like those in #5462
I'm having trouble thinking of other wins for `fmt!`, but if there's some suggestions I'd be more than willing to look into if they'd work out or not.
The `each_line` function in `ReaderUtil` acts very differently to equivalent functions in Python, Ruby, Clojure etc. E.g. given a file `t` with contents `trailing\nnew line\n` and `n` containing `no trailing\nnew line`:
Rust:
```Rust
t: ~[~"trailing", ~"new line", ~""]
n: ~[~"no trailing", ~"new line"]
```
Python:
```Python
>>> open('t').readlines()
['trailing\n', 'new line\n']
>>> open('n').readlines()
['no trailing\n', 'new line']
```
Ruby:
```Ruby
irb(main):001:0> File.readlines('t')
=> ["trailing\n", "new line\n"]
irb(main):002:0> File.readlines('n')
=> ["no trailing\n", "new line"]
```
Clojure
```Clojure
user=> (read-lines "t")
("trailing" "new line")
user=> (read-lines "n")
("no trailing" "new line")
```
The extra string that rust includes at the end is inconsistent, and means that it is impossible to distinguish between the "real" empty line a file that ends `...\n\n`, and the "fake" one after the last `\n`.
The code attached makes Rust's `each_line` act like Clojure (and PHP, i.e. not including the `\n`), as well as adjusting `str::lines` to fix the trailing empty line problem.
Also, add a convenience `read_lines` method to read all the lines in a file into a vector.
Specifically, `lines` and `each_line` will not emit a trailing empty string
when given "...\n". Also, add `read_lines`, which just collects all of
`each_line` into a vector, and `split_*_no_trailing` which will is the
generalised version of `lines`.
This makes the `trim` and `substr` functions return a slice instead of an `~str`, and removes the unnecessary `Trimmable` trait (`StrSlice` already contains the same functionality).
Also moves the `ToStr` implementations for the three str types into the str module in anticipation of further untangling.
The old string benchmarks weren't very useful because the strings weren't long enough, so I just threw those out for now. I left out benchmarks of `oldmap` because it's clear that it's 30-40% slower and it doesn't implement the `Map` trait.
This also cleanly divides up `insert`, `search` and `remove`.
Adds an assert_eq! macro that asserts that its two arguments are equal. Error messages can therefore be somewhat more informative than a simple assert, because the error message includes "expected" and "given" values.
A slice now always refers to something that returns an borrowed pointer, views don't exist anymore. If you want to have an explictit copy of a slice, use `to_owned()`
For bootstrapping purposes, this commit does not remove all uses of
the keyword "pure" -- doing so would cause the compiler to no longer
bootstrap due to some syntax extensions ("deriving" in particular).
Instead, it makes the compiler ignore "pure". Post-snapshot, we can
remove "pure" from the language.
There are quite a few (~100) borrow check errors that were essentially
all the result of mutable fields or partial borrows of `@mut`. Per
discussions with Niko I think we want to allow partial borrows of
`@mut` but detect obvious footguns. We should also improve the error
message when `@mut` is erroneously reborrowed.

I want to use this function as a method. There's probably a better way to design this but the existing `ToBytes` trait is not what I am looking for (it has a parameter to indicate the byte order).
adjusting a few foreign functions that were declared with by-ref
mode. This also allows us to remove by-val mode in the near future.
With copy mode, though, we have to be careful because Rust will implicitly pass
somethings by pointer but this may not be the C ABI rules. For example, rust
will pass a struct Foo as a Foo*. So I added some code into the adapters to
fix this (though the C ABI rules may put the pointer back, oh well).
This patch also includes a lint mode for the use of by-ref mode
in foreign functions as the semantics of this have changed.

This removes `log` from the language. Because we can't quite implement it as a syntax extension (probably need globals at the least) it simply renames the keyword to `__log` and hides it behind macros.
After this the only way to log is with `debug!`, `info!`, etc. I figure that if there is demand for `log!` we can add it back later.
I am not sure that we ever agreed on this course of action, though I *think* there is consensus that `log` shouldn't be a statement.
The correct opendir/readdir to use appear to be the 64-bit versions called
opendir$INODE64, etc. but for some reason I can't get them to link properly
on i686. Putting them in librustrt and making gcc figure it out works.
This mystery will have to wait for another day.
This will allow you to use the `+` operator to add together any two
Options, assuming that the contents of each Option likewise implement
`+`. So Some(4) + Some(1) == Some(5), and adding with None leaves the
other value unchanged.
This might be monoidic? I don't know what that word means!

Two changes:
- The first fixes an inconsistency in coherence whereby extension methods were added to the inherent methods table, but only in cross-crate scenarios. This causes some minor fallout in tests and so forth. In one case (comm) I added inherent and trait methods so as to avoid the need to import traits like `GenericPort` just to use a port.
- The second makes objects not implement the associated trait, as discussed in #5087.

When parsing bytes from a wire, there is a need to parse floating-point bytes to float values ([u8*4] to f32, [u8*8] to f64). This can be done via cast::transmute, but there is no way to do it safely.
It's quite common, so I think I't better to support it in core library.
