ptr::RawPtr, spell out units used for the `offset` argument.
spell out units used for the `offset` argument, so that callers do not
try to scale to byte units themselves.
(this was originally landed in PR #11002 for the stand-alone functions, but that PR did not modify the `RawPtr` methods, since that had no doc at all at the time. Now `RawPtr` has the *only* documentation for `offset`, since the stand-alone functions went away in PR #12167 / PR #12248.)
Previously an `unsafe` block created by the compiler (like those in the
formatting macros) would be "ignored" if surrounded by `unsafe`, that
is, the internal unsafety would be being legitimised by the external
block:
unsafe { println!("...") } =(expansion)=> unsafe { ... unsafe { ... } }
And the code in the inner block would be using the outer block, making
it considered used (and the inner one considered unused).
This patch forces the compiler to create a new unsafe context for
compiler generated blocks, so that their internal unsafety doesn't
escape to external blocks.
Fixes#12418.
The comments say that the prelude imports std::io::println since it would
be annoying to have to import it in every program that uses it. However,
the prelude doesn't actually import that function anymore. So, update the
comments to better match reality.
This "bubble up an error" macro was originally named if_ok! in order to get it
landed, but after the fact it was discovered that this name is not exactly
desirable.
The name `if_ok!` isn't immediately clear that is has much to do with error
handling, and it doesn't look fantastic in all contexts (if if_ok!(...) {}). In
general, the agreed opinion about `if_ok!` is that is came in as subpar.
The name `try!` is more invocative of error handling, it's shorter by 2 letters,
and it looks fitting in almost all circumstances. One concern about the word
`try!` is that it's too invocative of exceptions, but the belief is that this
will be overcome with documentation and examples.

The fairness yield mistakenly called `Local::take()` which meant that it would
only work if a local task was available. In theory sending on a channel (or calling try_recv) requires
no runtime because it never blocks, so there's no reason it shouldn't support
such a use case.
Closes#12391
I don't think `extra` is a good/meaningful name for a library. `libextra` should disappear, and we move all of its sub modules out of it. This PR is just one of that steps: move `extra::test` to `libtest`.
I didn't add `libtest` to doc index, because it's an internal library currently.
**Update:**
All comments addressed. All tests passed. Rebased and squashed.
On windows, the GetEnvironmentVariable function will return the necessary buffer
size if the buffer provided was too small. This case previously fell through the
checks inside of fill_utf16_buf_and_decode, tripping an assertion in the `slice`
method.
This adds an extra case for when the return value is >= the buffer size, in
which case we assume the return value as the new buffer size and try again.
Closes#12376

Iterators! Use them (in `is_utf16`), create them (in `utf16_items`).
Handle errors gracefully (`from_utf16_lossy`) and `from_utf16` returning `Option<~str>` instead of failing.
Add a pile of tests.
Many of the functions interacting with Windows APIs allocate a vector of
0's and do not retrieve a length directly from the API call, and so need
to be sure to remove the unmodified junk at the end of the vector.
See the commit messages for more details, but this makes `std::str::is_utf8` slightly faster and 100% non-`unsafe` and uses a similar thing to make the first scan of `from_utf8_lossy` 100% safe & faster.
This uses a vector iterator to avoid the necessity for unsafe indexing,
and makes this function slightly faster. Unfortunately #11751 means that
the iterator comes with repeated `null` checks which means the
pure-ASCII case still has room for significant improvement (and the
other cases too, but it's most significant for just ASCII).
Before:
is_utf8_100_ascii ... bench: 143 ns/iter (+/- 6)
is_utf8_100_multibyte ... bench: 134 ns/iter (+/- 4)
After:
is_utf8_100_ascii ... bench: 123 ns/iter (+/- 4)
is_utf8_100_multibyte ... bench: 115 ns/iter (+/- 5)
There's a few parts to this PR
* Implement unix pipes in libnative for unix platforms (thanks @Geal!)
* Implement named pipes in libnative for windows (terrible, terrible code)
* Remove `#[cfg(unix)]` from `mod unix` in `std::io::net`. This is a terrible name for what it is, but that's the topic of #12093.
The windows implementation was significantly more complicated than I thought it would be, but it seems to be passing all the tests. now.

Delete all the documentation from std::task that references linked

Tweak TaskBuilder to be more builder-like. `.name()` is now `.named()` and
`.add_wrapper()` is now `.with_wrapper()`. Remove `.watched()` and
`.unwatched()` as they didn't actually do anything.
Closes#6399.
This deadlock was caused when the channel was closed at just the right time, so
the extra `self.cnt.fetch_add` actually should have preserved the DISCONNECTED
state of the channel. by modifying this the channel entered a state such that
the port would never succeed in dropping.
This also moves the increment of self.steals until after the MAX_STEALS block.
The reason for this is that in 'fn recv()' the steals variable is decremented
immediately after the try_recv(), which could in theory set steals to -1 if it
was previously set to 0 in try_recv().
Closes#12340
This is inspired by the [function naming in the Julia standard library](http://docs.julialang.org/en/release-0.2/stdlib/base/#Base.count_ones). It seems like a more self-explanatory name, and is more consistent with the accompanying methods, `leading_zeros` and `trailing_zeros`.
This replaces the iterator with one that handles lone surrogates
gracefully and uses that to implement `from_utf16_lossy` which replaces
invalid `u16`s with U+FFFD.
* Implementation of pipe_win32 filled out for libnative
* Reorganize pipes to be clone-able
* Fix a few file descriptor leaks on error
* Factor out some common code into shared functions

This renames the `n*` and `n*_ref` tuple getters to `val*` and `ref*` respectively, and adds `mut*` getters. It also removes the `CloneableTuple` and `ImmutableTuple` traits.
