Add a `-Zdump-drop-tracking-cfg` debugging flag
This is useful for debugging drop-tracking; previously, you had to recompile
rustc from source and manually add a call to `write_graph_to_file`. This
makes the option more discoverable and configurable at runtime.
I also took the liberty of making the labels for the CFG nodes much easier to read:
previously, they looked like `id(2), local_id: 48`, now they look like
```
expr from_config (hir_id=HirId { owner: DefId(0:10 ~ default_struct_update[79f9]::foo), local_id: 2})
```

Rename the `--terminal-width` flag to `--output-width` as the behaviour
doesn't just apply to terminals (and so is slightly less accurate).
Signed-off-by: David Wood <david.wood@huawei.com>
Formerly `-Zterminal-width`, `--terminal-width` allows the user or build
tool to inform rustc of the width of the terminal so that diagnostics
can be truncated.

The `rustc_lint_diagnostics` attribute is used by the diagnostic
translation/struct migration lints to identify calls where
non-translatable diagnostics or diagnostics outwith impls are being
created. Any function used in creating a diagnostic should be annotated
with this attribute so this commit adds the attribute to many more
functions.

Support lint expectations for `--force-warn` lints (RFC 2383)
Rustc has a `--force-warn` flag, which overrides lint level attributes and forces the diagnostics to always be warn. This means, that for lint expectations, the diagnostic can't be suppressed as usual. This also means that the expectation would not be fulfilled, even if a lint had been triggered in the expected scope.
This PR now also tracks the expectation ID in the `ForceWarn` level. I've also made some minor adjustments, to possibly catch more bugs and make the whole implementation more robust.
This will probably conflict with https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97718. That PR should ideally be reviewed and merged first. The conflict itself will be trivial to fix.

## Summary
This PR adds support to `-Z self-profile` for counting hardware events such as "instructions retired" (as opposed to being limited to time measurements), using the `rdpmc` instruction on `x86_64` Linux.
While other OSes may eventually be supported, preliminary research suggests some kind of kernel extension/driver is required to enable this, whereas on Linux any user can profile (at least) their own threads.
Supporting Linux on architectures other than x86_64 should be much easier (provided the hardware supports such performance counters), and was mostly not done due to a lack of readily available test hardware.
That said, 32-bit `x86` (aka `i686`) would be almost trivial to add and test once we land the initial `x86_64` version (as all the CPU detection code can be reused).
A new flag `-Z self-profile-counter` was added, to control which of the named `measureme` counters is used, and which defaults to `wall-time`, in order to keep `-Z self-profile`'s current functionality unchanged (at least for now).
The named counters so far are:
* `wall-time`: the existing time measurement
* name chosen for consistency with `perf.rust-lang.org`
* continues to use `std::time::Instant` for a nanosecond-precision "monotonic clock"
* `instructions:u`: the hardware performance counter usually referred to as "Instructions retired"
* here "retired" (roughly) means "fully executed"
* the `:u` suffix is from the Linux `perf` tool and indicates the counter only runs while userspace code is executing, and therefore counts no kernel instructions
* *see [Caveats/Subtracting IRQs](https://hackmd.io/sH315lO2RuicY-SEt7ynGA?view#Subtracting-IRQs) for why this isn't entirely true and why `instructions-minus-irqs:u` should be preferred instead*
* `instructions-minus-irqs:u`: same as `instructions:u`, except the count of hardware interrupts ("IRQs" here for brevity) is subtracted
* *see [Caveats/Subtracting IRQs](https://hackmd.io/sH315lO2RuicY-SEt7ynGA?view#Subtracting-IRQs) for why this should be preferred over `instructions:u`*
* `instructions-minus-r0420:u`: experimental counter, same as `instructions-minus-irqs:u` but subtracting an undocumented counter (`r0420:u`) instead of IRQs
* the `rXXXX` notation is again from Linux `perf`, and indicates a "raw" counter, with a hex representation of the low-level counter configuration - this was picked because we still don't *really* know what it is
* this only exists for (future) testing and isn't included/used in any comparisons/data we've put together so far
* *see [Challenges/Zen's undocumented 420 counter](https://hackmd.io/sH315lO2RuicY-SEt7ynGA?view#Epilogue-Zen’s-undocumented-420-counter) for details on how this counter was found and what it does*

* this is also separately found in #77162, and we probably want to avoid doing it by default, ideally we'd use the runtime control API `jemalloc` offers (assuming that can stop the timer that's already running, which I'm not sure about)

lint: add diagnostic translation migration lints
Introduce allow-by-default lints for checking whether diagnostics are written in
`SessionDiagnostic` or `AddSubdiagnostic` impls and whether diagnostics are translatable. These lints can be denied for modules once they are fully migrated to impls and translation.
These lints are intended to be temporary - once all diagnostics have been changed then we can just change the APIs we have and that will enforce these constraints thereafter.

It looks like the last time had left some remaining cfg's -- which made me think
that the stage0 bump was actually successful. This brings us to a released 1.62
beta though.
Currently, the only API for creating errors from a diagnostic derive
will emit it immediately. This makes it difficult to add subdiagnostics
to diagnostics from the derive, so add `create_{err,warning}` functions
that return the diagnostic without emitting it.

rustc_ast: Harmonize delimiter naming with `proc_macro::Delimiter`
Compiler cannot reuse `proc_macro::Delimiter` directly due to extra impls, but can at least use the same naming.
After this PR the only difference between these two enums is that `proc_macro::Delimiter::None` is turned into `token::Delimiter::Invisible`.
It's my mistake that the invisible delimiter is called `None` on stable, during the stabilization I audited the naming and wrote the docs, but missed the fact that the `None` naming gives a wrong and confusing impression about what this thing is.

Make sure `-Dunused-crate-dependencies --json unused-externs` makes rustc exit with error status
This PR:
- fixes compiletest to understand unused extern notifications
- adds tests for `--json unused-externs`
- makes sure that deny-level unused externs notifications are treated as compile errors
- refactors the `emit_unused_externs` callstack to plumb through the level as an enum as a string, and adds `Level::is_error`
Update: adds `--json unused-externs-silent` with the original behaviour since Cargo needs it. Should address `@est31's` concerns.

Add missing `target_feature` to the list of well known cfg names
This PR adds the missing `target_feature` cfg name to the list of well known cfg names.
It was notice missing in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/96472 thanks to `@bjorn3,` the reason being that `--check-cfg=names()` automatically inherit the names passed by `--cfg` (or internal to `rustc`) and is seems that the vast majority of targets have at least one target feature leading to `target_feature` being a well known name in most target but it should always be a well known name so this PR add it unconditionally to list.
r? `@petrochenkov`
Since Cargo wants to do its own fatal error handling for unused
dependencies, add the option `--json unused-externs-silent` which
has the original behaviour of not indicating non-zero exit status for
`deny`/`forbid`-level unused dependencies.
Implement MIR opt unit tests
This implements rust-lang/compiler-team#502 .
There's not much to say here, this implementation does everything as proposed. I also added the flag to a bunch of existing tests (mostly those to which I could add it without causing huge diffs due to changes in line numbers). Summarizing the changes to test outputs:
- Every time an `MirPatch` is created, it adds a cleanup block to the body if it did not exist already. If this block is unused (as is usually the case), it usually gets removed soon after by some pass calling `SimplifyCFG` for unrelated reasons (in many cases this cycle happens quite a few times for a single body). We now run `SimplifyCFG` less often, so those blocks end up in some of our outputs. I looked at changing `MirPatch` to not do this, but that seemed too complicated for this PR. I may still do that in a follow-up.
- The `InstCombine` test had set `-C opt-level=0` in its flags and so there were no storage markers. I don't really see a good motivation for doing this, so bringing it back in line with what everything else does seems correct.
- One of the `EarlyOtherwiseBranch` tests had `UnreachableProp` running on it. Preventing that kind of thing is the goal of this feature, so this seems fine.
For the remaining tests for which this feature might be useful, we can gradually migrate them as opportunities present themselves.
In terms of documentation, I plan on submitting a PR to the rustc dev guide in the near future documenting this and other recent changes to MIR. If there's any other places to update, do let me know
r? `@nagisa`
This adds `nounused` to the set of extern flags:

The effect of this flag is to suppress `unused-crate-dependencies`
warnings relating to the crate.
Remove `--extern-location` and all associated code
`--extern-location` was an experiment to investigate the best way to
generate useful diagnostics for unused dependency warnings by enabling a
build system to identify the corresponding build config.
While I did successfully use this, I've since been convinced the
alternative `--json unused-externs` mechanism is the way to go, and
there's no point in having two mechanisms with basically the same
functionality.

Create (unstable) 2024 edition
[On Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/213817-t-lang/topic/Deprecating.20macro.20scoping.20shenanigans/near/272860652), there was a small aside regarding creating the 2024 edition now as opposed to later. There was a reasonable amount of support and no stated opposition.
This change creates the 2024 edition in the compiler and creates a prelude for the 2024 edition. There is no current difference between the 2021 and 2024 editions. Cargo and other tools will need to be updated separately, as it's not in the same repository. This change permits the vast majority of work towards the next edition to proceed _now_ instead of waiting until 2024.
For sanity purposes, I've merged the "hello" UI tests into a single file with multiple revisions. Otherwise we'd end up with a file per edition, despite them being essentially identical.

This commit updates the signatures of all diagnostic functions to accept
types that can be converted into a `DiagnosticMessage`. This enables
existing diagnostic calls to continue to work as before and Fluent
identifiers to be provided. The `SessionDiagnostic` derive just
generates normal diagnostic calls, so these APIs had to be modified to
accept Fluent identifiers.
In addition, loading of the "fallback" Fluent bundle, which contains the
built-in English messages, has been implemented.
Each diagnostic now has "arguments" which correspond to variables in the
Fluent messages (necessary to render a Fluent message) but no API for
adding arguments has been added yet. Therefore, diagnostics (that do not
require interpolation) can be converted to use Fluent identifiers and
will be output as before.
`MultiSpan` contains labels, which are more complicated with the
introduction of diagnostic translation and will use types from
`rustc_errors` - however, `rustc_errors` depends on `rustc_span` so
`rustc_span` cannot use types like `DiagnosticMessage` without
dependency cycles. Introduce a new `rustc_error_messages` crate that can
contain `DiagnosticMessage` and `MultiSpan`.

Implement -Z oom=panic
This PR removes the `#[rustc_allocator_nounwind]` attribute on `alloc_error_handler` which allows it to unwind with a panic instead of always aborting. This is then used to implement `-Z oom=panic` as per RFC 2116 (tracking issue #43596).
Perf and binary size tests show negligible impact.
There are a few places were we have to construct it, though, and a few
places that are more invasive to change. To do this, we create a
constructor with a long obvious name.
Treat unstable lints as unknown
This change causes unstable lints to be ignored if the `unknown_lints`
lint is allowed. To achieve this, it also changes lints to apply as soon
as they are processed. Previously, lints in the same set were processed
as a batch and then all simultaneously applied.
Implementation of https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/469
This also affects the `non_exhaustive_omitted_patterns` and
`must_not_suspend` lints as they are not stable. This also changes the
diagnostic level to pull from `unknown_lints` instead of always being
allow or deny.
Add well known values to `--check-cfg` implementation
This pull-request adds well known values for the well known names via `--check-cfg=values()`.
[RFC 3013: Checking conditional compilation at compile time](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3013-conditional-compilation-checking.html#checking-conditional-compilation-at-compile-time) doesn't define this at all, but this seems a nice improvement.
The activation is done by a empty `values()` (new syntax) similar to `names()` except that `names(foo)` also activate well known names while `values(aa, "aa", "kk")` would not.
As stated this use a different activation logic because well known values for the well known names are not always sufficient.
In fact this is problematic for every `target_*` cfg because of non builtin targets, as the current implementation use those built-ins targets to create the list the well known values.
The implementation is straight forward, first we gather (if necessary) all the values (lazily or not) and then we apply them.

Implementation of the `expect` attribute (RFC 2383)
This is an implementation of the `expect` attribute as described in [RFC-2383](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2383-lint-reasons.html). The attribute allows the suppression of lint message by expecting them. Unfulfilled lint expectations (meaning no expected lint was caught) will emit the `unfulfilled_lint_expectations` lint at the `expect` attribute.
### Example
#### input
```rs
// required feature flag
#![feature(lint_reasons)]
#[expect(unused_mut)] // Will warn about an unfulfilled expectation
#[expect(unused_variables)] // Will be fulfilled by x
fn main() {
let x = 0;
}
```
#### output
```txt
warning: this lint expectation is unfulfilled
--> $DIR/trigger_lint.rs:3:1
|
LL | #[expect(unused_mut)] // Will warn about an unfulfilled expectation
| ^^^^^^^^^^
|
= note: `#[warn(unfulfilled_lint_expectations)]` on by default
```
### Implementation
This implementation introduces `Expect` as a new lint level for diagnostics, which have been expected. All lint expectations marked via the `expect` attribute are collected in the [`LintLevelsBuilder`] and assigned an ID that is stored in the new lint level. The `LintLevelsBuilder` stores all found expectations and the data needed to emit the `unfulfilled_lint_expectations` in the [`LintLevelsMap`] which is the result of the [`lint_levels()`] query.
The [`rustc_errors::HandlerInner`] is the central error handler in rustc and handles the emission of all diagnostics. Lint message with the level `Expect` are suppressed during this emission, while the expectation ID is stored in a set which marks them as fulfilled. The last step is then so simply check if all expectations collected by the [`LintLevelsBuilder`] in the [`LintLevelsMap`] have been marked as fulfilled in the [`rustc_errors::HandlerInner`]. Otherwise, a new lint message will be emitted.
The implementation of the `LintExpectationId` required some special handling to make it stable between sessions. Lints can be emitted during [`EarlyLintPass`]es. At this stage, it's not possible to create a stable identifier. The level instead stores an unstable identifier, which is later converted to a stable `LintExpectationId`.
### Followup TO-DOs
All open TO-DOs have been marked with `FIXME` comments in the code. This is the combined list of them:
* [ ] The current implementation doesn't cover cases where the `unfulfilled_lint_expectations` lint is actually expected by another `expect` attribute.

### Open questions
I also have a few open questions where I would like to get feedback on:
1. The RFC discussion included a suggestion to change the `expect` attribute to something else. (Initiated by `@Ixrec` [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2383#issuecomment-378424091), suggestion from `@scottmcm` to use `#[should_lint(...)]` [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2383#issuecomment-378648877)). No real conclusion was drawn on that point from my understanding. Is this still open for discussion, or was this discarded with the merge of the RFC?
2. How should the expect attribute deal with the new `force-warn` lint level?
---
This approach was inspired by a discussion with `@LeSeulArtichaut.`

No branch protection metadata unless enabled
Even if we emit metadata disabling branch protection, this metadata may
conflict with other modules (e.g. during LTO) that have different branch
protection metadata set.
This is an unstable flag and feature, so ideally the flag not being
specified should act as if the feature wasn't implemented in the first
place.
Additionally this PR also ensures we emit an error if
`-Zbranch-protection` is set on targets other than the supported
aarch64. For now the error is being output from codegen, but ideally it
should be moved to earlier in the pipeline before stabilization.
Use undef for (some) partially-uninit constants

Original PR: #83698

rustc_errors: let `DiagnosticBuilder::emit` return a "guarantee of emission".
That is, `DiagnosticBuilder` is now generic over the return type of `.emit()`, so we'll now have:
* `DiagnosticBuilder<ErrorReported>` for error (incl. fatal/bug) diagnostics
* can only be created via a `const L: Level`-generic constructor, that limits allowed variants via a `where` clause, so not even `rustc_errors` can accidentally bypass this limitation
* asserts `diagnostic.is_error()` on emission, just in case the construction restriction was bypassed (e.g. by replacing the whole `Diagnostic` inside `DiagnosticBuilder`)
* `.emit()` returns `ErrorReported`, as a "proof" token that `.emit()` was called
(though note that this isn't a real guarantee until after completing the work on
#69426)
* `DiagnosticBuilder<()>` for everything else (warnings, notes, etc.)
* can also be obtained from other `DiagnosticBuilder`s by calling `.forget_guarantee()`
This PR is a companion to other ongoing work, namely:
* #69426
and it's ongoing implementation:
#93222
the API changes in this PR are needed to get statically-checked "only errors produce `ErrorReported` from `.emit()`", but doesn't itself provide any really strong guarantees without those other `ErrorReported` changes
* #93244
would make the choices of API changes (esp. naming) in this PR fit better overall
In order to be able to let `.emit()` return anything trustable, several changes had to be made:
* `Diagnostic`'s `level` field is now private to `rustc_errors`, to disallow arbitrary "downgrade"s from "some kind of error" to "warning" (or anything else that doesn't cause compilation to fail)
* it's still possible to replace the whole `Diagnostic` inside the `DiagnosticBuilder`, sadly, that's harder to fix, but it's unlikely enough that we can paper over it with asserts on `.emit()`
* `.cancel()` now consumes `DiagnosticBuilder`, preventing `.emit()` calls on a cancelled diagnostic
* it's also now done internally, through `DiagnosticBuilder`-private state, instead of having a `Level::Cancelled` variant that can be read (or worse, written) by the user
* this removes a hazard of calling `.cancel()` on an error then continuing to attach details to it, and even expect to be able to `.emit()` it
* warnings were switched to *only* `can_emit_warnings` on emission (instead of pre-cancelling early)
* `struct_dummy` was removed (as it relied on a pre-`Cancelled` `Diagnostic`)
* since `.emit()` doesn't consume the `DiagnosticBuilder` <sub>(I tried and gave up, it's much more work than this PR)</sub>,
we have to make `.emit()` idempotent wrt the guarantees it returns
* thankfully, `err.emit(); err.emit();` can return `ErrorReported` both times, as the second `.emit()` call has no side-effects *only* because the first one did do the appropriate emission
* `&mut Diagnostic` is now used in a lot of function signatures, which used to take `&mut DiagnosticBuilder` (in the interest of not having to make those functions generic)
* the APIs were already mostly identical, allowing for low-effort porting to this new setup
* only some of the suggestion methods needed some rework, to have the extra `DiagnosticBuilder` functionality on the `Diagnostic` methods themselves (that change is also present in #93259)
* `.emit()`/`.cancel()` aren't available, but IMO calling them from an "error decorator/annotator" function isn't a good practice, and can lead to strange behavior (from the caller's perspective)
* `.downgrade_to_delayed_bug()` was added, letting you convert any `.is_error()` diagnostic into a `delay_span_bug` one (which works because in both cases the guarantees available are the same)
This PR should ideally be reviewed commit-by-commit, since there is a lot of fallout in each.

Add MemTagSanitizer Support
Add support for the LLVM [MemTagSanitizer](https://llvm.org/docs/MemTagSanitizer.html).
On hardware which supports it (see caveats below), the MemTagSanitizer can catch bugs similar to AddressSanitizer and HardwareAddressSanitizer, but with lower overhead.
On a tag mismatch, a SIGSEGV is signaled with code SEGV_MTESERR / SEGV_MTEAERR.
# Usage
`-Zsanitizer=memtag -C target-feature="+mte"`
# Comments/Caveats
* MemTagSanitizer is only supported on AArch64 targets with hardware support
* Requires `-C target-feature="+mte"`
* LLVM MemTagSanitizer currently only performs stack tagging.
# TODO
* Tests
* Example
This change adds a flag for configuring control-flow protection in the
LLVM backend. In Clang, this flag is exposed as `-fcf-protection` with
options `none|branch|return|full`. This convention is followed for
`rustc`, though as a codegen option: `rustc -Z
cf-protection=<none|branch|return|full>`.

This option introduced in #15820 allows a custom crate to be imported in
the place of std, but with the name std. I don't think there is any
value to this. At most it is confusing users of a driver that uses this option. There are no users of
this option on github. If anyone still needs it, they can emulate it
injecting #![no_core] in addition to their own prelude.
Delete -Zquery-stats infrastructure
These statistics are computable from the self-profile data and/or ad-hoc collectable as needed, and in the meantime contribute to rustc bootstrap times -- locally, this PR shaves ~2.5% from rustc_query_impl builds in instruction counts.
If this does lose some functionality we want to keep, I think we should migrate it to self-profile (or a similar interface) rather than this ad-hoc reporting.

Stabilize `-Z instrument-coverage` as `-C instrument-coverage`
(Tracking issue for `instrument-coverage`: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/79121)
This PR stabilizes support for instrumentation-based code coverage, previously provided via the `-Z instrument-coverage` option. (Continue supporting `-Z instrument-coverage` for compatibility for now, but show a deprecation warning for it.)
Many, many people have tested this support, and there are numerous reports of it working as expected.
Move the documentation from the unstable book to stable rustc documentation. Update uses and documentation to use the `-C` option.
Addressing questions raised in the tracking issue:
> If/when stabilized, will the compiler flag be updated to -C instrument-coverage? (If so, the -Z variant could also be supported for some time, to ease migrations for existing users and scripts.)
This stabilization PR updates the option to `-C` and keeps the `-Z` variant to ease migration.
> The Rust coverage implementation depends on (and automatically turns on) -Z symbol-mangling-version=v0. Will stabilizing this feature depend on stabilizing v0 symbol-mangling first? If so, what is the current status and timeline?
This stabilization PR depends on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/90128 , which stabilizes `-C symbol-mangling-version=v0` (but does not change the default symbol-mangling-version).
> The Rust coverage implementation implements the latest version of LLVM's Coverage Mapping Format (version 4), which forces a dependency on LLVM 11 or later. A compiler error is generated if attempting to compile with coverage, and using an older version of LLVM.
Given that LLVM 13 has now been released, requiring LLVM 11 for coverage support seems like a reasonable requirement. If people don't have at least LLVM 11, nothing else breaks; they just can't use coverage support. Given that coverage support currently requires a nightly compiler and LLVM 11 or newer, allowing it on a stable compiler built with LLVM 11 or newer seems like an improvement.
The [tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/79121) and the [issue label A-code-coverage](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/A-code-coverage) link to a few open issues related to `instrument-coverage`, but none of them seem like showstoppers. All of them seem like improvements and refinements we can make after stabilization.
The original `-Z instrument-coverage` support went through a compiler-team MCP at https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/278 . Based on that, `@pnkfelix` suggested that this needed a stabilization PR and a compiler-team FCP.
Currently, it can be `None` if the conversion from `OsString` fails, in
which case all searches will skip over the `SearchPathFile`.
The commit changes things so that the `SearchPathFile` just doesn't get
created in the first place. Same behaviour, but slightly simpler code.
This code and comment appear to be out of date.
`CrateLocator::find_library_crate` is the only caller of this function
and it handles rlib vs dylib overlap itself (see
`CrateLocator::extract_lib`) after inspecting all the files present, so
it doesn't need to see them in any particular order.
Stabilize `-Z print-link-args` as `--print link-args`
We have stable options for adding linker arguments; we should have a
stable option to help debug linker arguments.
Add documentation for the new option. In the documentation, make it clear that
the *exact* format of the output is not a stable guarantee.
Implement raw-dylib support for windows-gnu
Add support for `#[link(kind = "raw-dylib")]` on windows-gnu targets. Work around binutils's linker's inability to read import libraries produced by LLVM by calling out to the binutils `dlltool` utility to create an import library from a temporary .DEF file; this approach is effectively a slightly refined version of `@mati865's` earlier attempt at this strategy in PR #88801. (In particular, this attempt at this strategy adds support for `#[link_ordinal(...)]` as well.)
In support of #58713.
In #79570, `-Z split-dwarf-kind={none,single,split}` was replaced by `-C
split-debuginfo={off,packed,unpacked}`. `-C split-debuginfo`'s packed
and unpacked aren't exact parallels to single and split, respectively.
On Unix, `-C split-debuginfo=packed` will put debuginfo into object
files and package debuginfo into a DWARF package file (`.dwp`) and
`-C split-debuginfo=unpacked` will put debuginfo into dwarf object files
and won't package it.
In the initial implementation of Split DWARF, split mode wrote sections
which did not require relocation into a DWARF object (`.dwo`) file which
was ignored by the linker and then packaged those DWARF objects into
DWARF packages (`.dwp`). In single mode, sections which did not require
relocation were written into object files but ignored by the linker and
were not packaged. However, both split and single modes could be
packaged or not, the primary difference in behaviour was where the
debuginfo sections that did not require link-time relocation were
written (in a DWARF object or the object file).
This commit re-introduces a `-Z split-dwarf-kind` flag, which can be
used to pick between split and single modes when `-C split-debuginfo` is
used to enable Split DWARF (either packed or unpacked).

These options primarily exist to work around bugs, and those bugs have
largely been fixed. Avoid stabilizing them, so that we don't have to
support them indefinitely.
Continue supporting -Z instrument-coverage for compatibility for now,
but show a deprecation warning for it.
Update uses and documentation to use the -C option.
Move the documentation from the unstable book to stable rustc
documentation.
This allows selecting `v0` symbol-mangling without an unstable option.
Selecting `legacy` still requires -Z unstable-options.

now, but show a deprecation warning for it.
Import `SourceFile`s from crate before decoding foreign `Span`
Fixes#92163Fixes#92014
When writing to the incremental cache, we encode all `Span`s
we encounter, regardless of whether or not their `SourceFile`
comes from the local crate, or from a foreign crate.
When we decode a `Span`, we use the `StableSourceFileId` we encoded
to locate the matching `SourceFile` in the current session. If this
id corresponds to a `SourceFile` from another crate, then we need to
have already imported that `SourceFile` into our current session.
This usually happens automatically during resolution / macro expansion,
when we try to resolve definitions from other crates. In certain cases,
however, we may try to load a `Span` from a transitive dependency
without having ever imported the `SourceFile`s from that crate, leading
to an ICE.
This PR fixes the issue by enconding the `SourceFile`'s `CrateNum`
when we encode a `Span`. During decoding, we call `imported_source_files()`
when we encounter a foreign `CrateNum`, which ensure that all
`SourceFile`s from that crate are imported into the current session.

Enable `#[thread_local]` for all windows-msvc targets
As it stands, `#[thread_local]` is enabled haphazardly for msvc. It seems all 64-bit targets have it enabled, but not 32-bit targets unless they're also UWP targets (perhaps because UWP was added more recently?). So this PR simply enables it for 32-bit targets as well. I can't think of a reason not to and I've confirmed by running tests locally which pass.

Tokenize emoji as if they were valid identifiers
In the lexer, consider emojis to be valid identifiers and reject
them later to avoid knock down parse errors.
Partially address #86102.
LLVM has built-in heuristics for adding stack canaries to functions. These
heuristics can be selected with LLVM function attributes. This patch adds a
rustc option `-Z stack-protector={none,basic,strong,all}` which controls the use
of these attributes. This gives rustc the same stack smash protection support as
clang offers through options `-fno-stack-protector`, `-fstack-protector`,
`-fstack-protector-strong`, and `-fstack-protector-all`. The protection this can
offer is demonstrated in test/ui/abi/stack-protector.rs. This fills a gap in the
current list of rustc exploit
mitigations (https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/exploit-mitigations.html),
originally discussed in #15179.
Stack smash protection adds runtime overhead and is therefore still off by
default, but now users have the option to trade performance for security as they
see fit. An example use case is adding Rust code in an existing C/C++ code base
compiled with stack smash protection. Without the ability to add stack smash
protection to the Rust code, the code base artifacts could be exploitable in
ways not possible if the code base remained pure C/C++.
Stack smash protection support is present in LLVM for almost all the current
tier 1/tier 2 targets: see
test/assembly/stack-protector/stack-protector-target-support.rs. The one
exception is nvptx64-nvidia-cuda. This patch follows clang's example, and adds a
warning message printed if stack smash protection is used with this target (see
test/ui/stack-protector/warn-stack-protector-unsupported.rs). Support for tier 3
targets has not been checked.
Since the heuristics are applied at the LLVM level, the heuristics are expected
to add stack smash protection to a fraction of functions comparable to C/C++.
Some experiments demonstrating how Rust code is affected by the different
heuristics can be found in
test/assembly/stack-protector/stack-protector-heuristics-effect.rs. There is
potential for better heuristics using Rust-specific safety information. For
example it might be reasonable to skip stack smash protection in functions which
transitively only use safe Rust code, or which uses only a subset of functions
the user declares safe (such as anything under `std.*`). Such alternative
heuristics could be added at a later point.
LLVM also offers a "safestack" sanitizer as an alternative way to guard against
stack smashing (see #26612). This could possibly also be included as a
stack-protection heuristic. An alternative is to add it as a sanitizer (#39699).
This is what clang does: safestack is exposed with option
`-fsanitize=safe-stack`.
The options are only supported by the LLVM backend, but as with other codegen
options it is visible in the main codegen option help menu. The heuristic names
"basic", "strong", and "all" are hopefully sufficiently generic to be usable in
other backends as well.

Added the --temps-dir option
Fixes#10971.
The new `--temps-dir` option puts intermediate files in a user-specified directory. This provides a fix for the issue where parallel invocations of rustc would overwrite each other's intermediate files.
No files are kept in the intermediate directory unless `-C save-temps=yes`.
If additional files are specifically requested using `--emit asm,llvm-bc,llvm-ir,obj,metadata,link,dep-info,mir`, these will be put in the output directory rather than the intermediate directory.
This is a backward-compatible change, i.e. if `--temps-dir` is not specified, the behavior is the same as before.
Don't abort compilation after giving a lint error
The only reason to use `abort_if_errors` is when the program is so broken that either:
1. later passes get confused and ICE
2. any diagnostics from later passes would be noise
This is never the case for lints, because the compiler has to be able to deal with `allow`-ed lints.
So it can continue to lint and compile even if there are lint errors.
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82761. This is a WIP because I have a feeling it will exit with 0 even if there were lint errors; I don't have a computer that can build rustc locally at the moment.
Add LLVM CFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support to the Rust compiler. It initially provides forward-edge control flow protection for Rust-compiled code only by aggregating function pointers in groups identified by their number of arguments.
Forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code share the same virtual address space) will be provided in later work as part of this project by defining and using compatible type identifiers (see Type metadata in the design document in the tracking issue #89653).
LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and requires LTO (i.e., -Clto).

Add -Z no-unique-section-names to reduce ELF header bloat.
This change adds a new compiler flag that can help reduce the size of ELF binaries that contain many functions.
By default, when enabling function sections (which is the default for most targets), the LLVM backend will generate different section names for each function. For example, a function `func` would generate a section called `.text.func`. Normally this is fine because the linker will merge all those sections into a single one in the binary. However, starting with [LLVM 12](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/ee5d1a04), the backend will also generate unique section names for exception handling, resulting in thousands of `.gcc_except_table.*` sections ending up in the final binary because some linkers like LLD don't currently merge or strip these EH sections (see discussion [here](https://reviews.llvm.org/D83655)). This can bloat the ELF headers and string table significantly in binaries that contain many functions.
The new option is analogous to Clang's `-fno-unique-section-names`, and instructs LLVM to generate the same `.text` and `.gcc_except_table` section for each function, resulting in a smaller final binary.
The motivation to add this new option was because we have a binary that ended up with so many ELF sections (over 65,000) that it broke some existing ELF tools, which couldn't handle so many sections.
Here's our old binary:
```
$ readelf --sections old.elf | head -1
There are 71746 section headers, starting at offset 0x2a246508:
$ readelf --sections old.elf | grep shstrtab
[71742] .shstrtab STRTAB 0000000000000000 2977204c ad44bb 00 0 0 1
```
That's an 11MB+ string table. Here's the new binary using this option:
```
$ readelf --sections new.elf | head -1
There are 43 section headers, starting at offset 0x29143ca8:
$ readelf --sections new.elf | grep shstrtab
[40] .shstrtab STRTAB 0000000000000000 29143acc 0001db 00 0 0 1
```
The whole binary size went down by over 20MB, which is quite significant.
Implement -Z location-detail flag
This PR implements the `-Z location-detail` flag as described in https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2091 .
`-Z location-detail=val` controls what location details are tracked when using `caller_location`. This allows users to control what location details are printed as part of panic messages, by allowing them to exclude any combination of filenames, line numbers, and column numbers. This option is intended to provide users with a way to mitigate the size impact of `#[track_caller]`.
Some measurements of the savings of this approach on an embedded binary can be found here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/70579#issuecomment-942556822 .
Closes#70580 (unless people want to leave that open as a place for discussion of further improvements).
This is my first real PR to rust, so any help correcting mistakes / understanding side effects / improving my tests is appreciated :)
I have one question: RFC 2091 specified this as a debugging option (I think that is what -Z implies?). Does that mean this can never be stabilized without a separate MCP? If so, do I need to submit an MCP now, or is the initial RFC specifying this option sufficient for this to be merged as is, and then an MCP would be needed for eventual stabilization?
Report fatal lexer errors in `--cfg` command line arguments
Fixes#89358. The erroneous behavior was apparently introduced by `@Mark-Simulacrum` in a678e31911; the idea is to silence individual parser errors and instead emit one catch-all error message after parsing. However, for the example in #89358, a fatal lexer error is created here:
edebf77e00/compiler/rustc_parse/src/lexer/mod.rs (L340-L349)
This fatal error aborts the compilation, and so the call to `new_parser_from_source_str()` never returns and the catch-all error message is never emitted. I have therefore changed the `SilentEmitter` to silence only non-fatal errors; with my changes, for the rustc invocation described in #89358:
```sh
rustc --cfg "abc\""
```
I get the following output:
```
error[E0765]: unterminated double quote string
|
= note: this error occurred on the command line: `--cfg=abc"`
```
Add support for artifact size profiling
This adds support for profiling artifact file sizes (incremental compilation artifacts and query cache to begin with).
Eventually we want to track this in perf.rlo so we can ensure that file sizes do not change dramatically on each pull request.
This relies on support in measureme: https://github.com/rust-lang/measureme/pull/169. Once that lands we can update this PR to not point to a git dependency.
This was worked on together with `@michaelwoerister.`
r? `@wesleywiser`
This change adds a new compiler flag that can help reduce the size of
ELF binaries that contain many functions.
By default, when enabling function sections (which is the default for most
targets), the LLVM backend will generate different section names for each
function. For example, a function "func" would generate a section called
".text.func". Normally this is fine because the linker will merge all those
sections into a single one in the binary. However, starting with LLVM 12
(llvm/llvm-project@ee5d1a0), the backend will
also generate unique section names for exception handling, resulting in
thousands of ".gcc_except_table.*" sections ending up in the final binary
because some linkers don't currently merge or strip these EH sections.
This can bloat the ELF headers and string table significantly in
binaries that contain many functions.
The new option is analogous to Clang's -fno-unique-section-names, and
instructs LLVM to generate the same ".text" and ".gcc_except_table"
section for each function, resulting in smaller object files and
potentially a smaller final binary.
Correct decoding of foreign expansions during incr. comp.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/74946
The original issue was due to a wrong assertion in `expn_hash_to_expn_id`.
The secondary issue was due to a mismatch between the encoding and decoding paths for expansions that are created after the TyCtxt is created.
This largely involves implementing the options debug-info-for-profiling
and profile-sample-use and forwarding them on to LLVM.
AutoFDO can be used on x86-64 Linux like this:
rustc -O -Cdebug-info-for-profiling main.rs -o main
perf record -b ./main
create_llvm_prof --binary=main --out=code.prof
rustc -O -Cprofile-sample-use=code.prof main.rs -o main2
Now `main2` will have feedback directed optimization applied to it.
The create_llvm_prof tool can be obtained from this github repository:
https://github.com/google/autofdoFixes#64892.
