This function had type &[u8] -> ~str, i.e. it allocates a string
internally, even though the non-allocating version that take &[u8] ->
&str and ~[u8] -> ~str are all that is necessary in most circumstances.
This registers new snapshots after the landing of #10528, and then goes on to tweak the build process to build a monolithic `rustc` binary for use in future snapshots. This mainly involved dropping the dynamic dependency on `librustllvm`, so that's now built as a static library (with a dynamically generated rust file listing LLVM dependencies).
This currently doesn't actually make the snapshot any smaller (24MB => 23MB), but I noticed that the executable has 11MB of metadata so once progress is made on #10740 we should have a much smaller snapshot.
There's not really a super-compelling reason to distribute just a binary because we have all the infrastructure for dealing with a directory structure, but to me it seems "more correct" that a snapshot compiler is just a `rustc` binary.
I've renamed `MutableVector::mut_split(at)` to `MutableVector::mut_split_at(at)` to be coherent with ImmutableVector. As specified in the commit log, The `size_hint` method is not optimal because of #9629.
This method is the mutable version of ImmutableVector::split. It is
a DoubleEndedIterator, making mut_rsplit irrelevent. The size_hint
method is not optimal because of #9629.
At the same time, clarify *split* iterator doc.
* Don't flag any address_insignificant statics as reachable because the whole
point of the address_insignificant optimization is that the static is not
reachable. Additionally, there's no need for it to be reachable because LLVM
optimizes it away.
* Be sure to not leak external node ids into our reachable set, this can
spuriously cause local items to be considered reachable if the node ids just
happen to line up
The section on closure types was missing, so I added one. I'm new to Rust, so there are probably important things to say about closure types that I'm missing here.
I tested the example with the latest Rust nightly.
This wasn't uncovered during testing because the librustrt is available locally
in the build directory (and it needs to be for all the tests to link against it
as well).
Closes#10765
Controversial change: make the constructors safe, but instead mark the
setters and getters as unsafe. This follows the tradition that construction
of *T is safe, but the access is unsafe instead.
Generally use more modern constructs (such as using `CVec::new()` as
constructor and move to more method usage).
Potentially controversial changes:
* change `get()` to return a reference instead of cloning
* remove `set()`, add `get_mut()` instead
* add an `unwrap()` method that destroys the CVec without running any
associated destructor
This includes documentation for all the previous changes done to linking
in #10582. Additionally, this brings the list of feature-gates up-to-date with
the currently recognized list of features.

Turns out that we only want to install the target rlibs, not the host rlibs.
I had it backwards the first time, then mixed up the second time, but this time
should get it right.
There's no need for host rlib files because none of them are needed at runtime.
This is inspired by a mystifying linker failure when using `pkg-config` to
generate the linker args: `pkg-config` produces output that ends in a
space, thus resulting in an empty linker argument.
Also added some updates to the concerning error messages that helped
spotting this bug.

Stop relying on a malloc error to indicate failure and instead use an
explicit check. Also ensure that the value is dropped at the correct
time (e.g. that the if statement is translated into `{ expr }` instead
of `expr`).
