Implement negative bounds for internal testing purposes
Implements partial support the `!` negative polarity on trait bounds. This is incomplete, but should allow us to at least be able to play with the feature.
Not even gonna consider them as a public-facing feature, but I'm implementing them because would've been nice to have in UI tests, for example in #110671.
Currently a `{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` can be created from any type that
impls `Into<String>`. That includes `&str`, `String`, and `Cow<'static,
str>`, which are reasonable. It also includes `&String`, which is pretty
weird, and results in many places making unnecessary allocations for
patterns like this:
```
self.fatal(&format!(...))
```
This creates a string with `format!`, takes a reference, passes the
reference to `fatal`, which does an `into()`, which clones the
reference, doing a second allocation. Two allocations for a single
string, bleh.
This commit changes the `From` impls so that you can only create a
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` from `&str`, `String`, or `Cow<'static,
str>`. This requires changing all the places that currently create one
from a `&String`. Most of these are of the `&format!(...)` form
described above; each one removes an unnecessary static `&`, plus an
allocation when executed. There are also a few places where the existing
use of `&String` was more reasonable; these now just use `clone()` at
the call site.
As well as making the code nicer and more efficient, this is a step
towards possibly using `Cow<'static, str>` in
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage::{Str,Eager}`. That would require changing
the `From<&'a str>` impls to `From<&'static str>`, which is doable, but
I'm not yet sure if it's worthwhile.
Add `rustc_fluent_macro` to decouple fluent from `rustc_macros`
Fluent, with all the icu4x it brings in, takes quite some time to compile. `fluent_messages!` is only needed in further downstream rustc crates, but is blocking more upstream crates like `rustc_index`. By splitting it out, we allow `rustc_macros` to be compiled earlier, which speeds up `x check compiler` by about 5 seconds (and even more after the needless dependency on `serde_json` is removed from `rustc_data_structures`).

Split out a separate feature gate for impl trait in associated types
in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/107645 it was decided that we'll take a new route for type alias impl trait. The exact route isn't clear yet, so while I'm working on implementing some of these proposed changes (e.g. in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/110010) to be able to experiment with them, I will also work on stabilizing another sugar version first: impl trait in associated types. Similarly I'll look into creating feature gates for impl trait in const/static types.
This PR does nothing but split the feature gate, so that you need to enable a different feature gate for
```rust
impl Trait for Type {
type Assoc = impl SomeTrait;
}
```
than what you need for `type Foo = impl SomeTrait;`
Remove `..` from return type notation
`@nikomatsakis` and I decided that using `..` in the return-type notation syntax is probably overkill.
r? `@eholk` since you reviewed the last one
Since this is piggybacking now totally off of a pre-existing syntax (parenthesized generics), let me know if you need any explanation of the logic here, since it's a bit more complicated now.
Update `error [E0449]: unnecessary visibility qualifier` to be more clear
This updates the error message `error[E0449]: unnecessary visibility qualifier` by clearly indicating that visibility qualifiers already inherit their visibility from a parent item. The error message previously implied that the qualifiers were permitted, which is not the case anymore.
Resolves#109822.
Emit feature error for parenthesized generics in associated type bounds
We don't actually do AST->HIR lowering with some `-Zunpretty` flags, so it's not correct to just delay a bug instead of emitting a feature error.
Some diagnostics regressed because of the new errors, but oh well. 🤷Fixes#109898
Remove `box_syntax`
r? `@Nilstrieb`
This removes the feature `box_syntax`, which allows the use of `box <expr>` to create a Box, and finalises removing use of the feature from the compiler. `box_patterns` (allowing the use of `box <pat>` in a pattern) is unaffected.
It also removes `ast::ExprKind::Box` - the only way to create a 'box' expression now is with the rustc-internal `#[rustc_box]` attribute.
As a temporary measure to help users move away, `box <expr>` now parses the inner expression, and emits a `MachineApplicable` lint to replace it with `Box::new`
Closes#49733
Gate usages of `dyn*` and const closures in macros
We silently accepted `dyn*` and const closures in macros as long as they didn't expand to anything containing these experimental features, unlike other gated features such as `for<'a>` binders on closures, etc. Let's not do that, to make sure nobody begins relying on this.
This makes it easier to open the messages file while developing on features.
The commit was the result of automatted changes:
for p in compiler/rustc_*; do mv $p/locales/en-US.ftl $p/messages.ftl; rmdir $p/locales; done
for p in compiler/rustc_*; do sed -i "s#\.\./locales/en-US.ftl#../messages.ftl#" $p/src/lib.rs; done
Instead of loading the Fluent resources for every crate in
`rustc_error_messages`, each crate generates typed identifiers for its
own diagnostics and creates a static which are pulled together in the
`rustc_driver` crate and provided to the diagnostic emitter.

Implement partial support for non-lifetime binders
This implements support for non-lifetime binders. It's pretty useless currently, but I wanted to put this up so the implementation can be discussed.
Specifically, this piggybacks off of the late-bound lifetime collection code in `rustc_hir_typeck::collect::lifetimes`. This seems like a necessary step given the fact we don't resolve late-bound regions until this point, and binders are sometimes merged.
Q: I'm not sure if I should go along this route, or try to modify the earlier nameres code to compute the right bound var indices for type and const binders eagerly... If so, I'll need to rename all these queries to something more appropriate (I've done this for `resolve_lifetime::Region` -> `resolve_lifetime::ResolvedArg`)

`check_builtin_attribute` calls `parse_meta` to convert an `Attribute`
to a `MetaItem`, which it then checks. However, many callers of
`check_builtin_attribute` start with a `MetaItem`, and then convert it
to an `Attribute` by calling `cx.attribute(meta_item)`. This `MetaItem`
to `Attribute` to `MetaItem` conversion is silly.
This commit adds a new function `check_builtin_meta_item`, which can be
called instead from these call sites. `check_builtin_attribute` also now
calls it. The commit also renames `check_meta` as `check_attr` to better
match its arguments.
translation: doc comments with derives, subdiagnostic-less enum variants, more derive use
- Adds support for `doc` attributes in the diagnostic derives so that documentation comments don't result in the derive failing.
- Adds support for enum variants in the subdiagnostic derive to not actually correspond to an addition to a diagnostic.
- Made use of the derive in more places in the `rustc_ast_lowering`, `rustc_ast_passes`, `rustc_lint`, `rustc_session`, `rustc_infer` - taking advantage of recent additions like eager subdiagnostics, multispan suggestions, etc.
cc #100717
`AddToDiagnostic::add_to_diagnostic_with` is similar to the previous
`AddToDiagnostic::add_to_diagnostic` but takes a function that can be
used by the caller to modify diagnostic messages originating from the
subdiagnostic (such as performing translation eagerly).
`add_to_diagnostic` now just calls `add_to_diagnostic_with` with an
empty closure.

Initial implementation of dyn*
This PR adds extremely basic and incomplete support for [dyn*](https://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps//blog/2022/03/29/dyn-can-we-make-dyn-sized/). The goal is to get something in tree behind a flag to make collaboration easier, and also to make sure the implementation so far is not unreasonable. This PR does quite a few things:
* Introduce `dyn_star` feature flag
* Adds parsing for `dyn* Trait` types
* Defines `dyn* Trait` as a sized type
* Adds support for explicit casts, like `42usize as dyn* Debug`
* Including const evaluation of such casts
* Adds codegen for drop glue so things are cleaned up properly when a `dyn* Trait` object goes out of scope
* Adds codegen for method calls, at least for methods that take `&self`
Quite a bit is still missing, but this gives us a starting point. Note that this is never intended to become stable surface syntax for Rust, but rather `dyn*` is planned to be used as an implementation detail for async functions in dyn traits.

# Stabilization proposal
This PR proposes the stabilization of `#![feature(generic_associated_types)]`. While there a number of future additions to be made and bugs to be fixed (both discussed below), properly doing these will require significant language design and will ultimately likely be backwards-compatible. Given the overwhelming desire to have some form of generic associated types (GATs) available on stable and the stability of the "simple" uses, stabilizing the current subset of GAT features is almost certainly the correct next step.
Tracking issue: #44265
Initiative: https://rust-lang.github.io/generic-associated-types-initiative/
RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1598-generic_associated_types.md
Version: 1.65 (2022-08-22 => beta, 2022-11-03 => stable).
## Motivation
There are a myriad of potential use cases for GATs. Stabilization unblocks probable future language features (e.g. async functions in traits), potential future standard library features (e.g. a `LendingIterator` or some form of `Iterator` with a lifetime generic), and a plethora of user use cases (some of which can be seen just by scrolling through the tracking issue and looking at all the issues linking to it).
There are a myriad of potential use cases for GATs. First, there are many users that have chosen to not use GATs primarily because they are not stable (some of which can be seen just by scrolling through the tracking issue and looking at all the issues linking to it). Second, while language feature desugaring isn't *blocked* on stabilization, it gives more confidence on using the feature. Likewise, library features like `LendingIterator` are not necessarily blocked on stabilization to be implemented unstably; however few, if any, public-facing APIs actually use unstable features.
This feature has a long history of design, discussion, and developement - the RFC was first introduced roughly 6 years ago. While there are still a number of features left to implement and bugs left to fix, it's clear that it's unlikely those will have backwards-incompatibility concerns. Additionally, the bugs that do exist do not strongly impede the most-common use cases.
## What is stabilized
The primary language feature stabilized here is the ability to have generics on associated types, as so. Additionally, where clauses on associated types will now be accepted, regardless if the associated type is generic or not.
```rust
trait ATraitWithGATs {
type Assoc<'a, T> where T: 'a;
}
trait ATraitWithoutGATs<'a, T> {
type Assoc where T: 'a;
}
```
When adding an impl for a trait with generic associated types, the generics for the associated type are copied as well. Note that where clauses are allowed both after the specified type and before the equals sign; however, the latter is a warn-by-default deprecation.
```rust
struct X;
struct Y;
impl ATraitWithGATs for X {
type Assoc<'a, T> = &'a T
where T: 'a;
}
impl ATraitWithGATs for Y {
type Assoc<'a, T>
where T: 'a
= &'a T;
}
```
To use a GAT in a function, generics are specified on the associated type, as if it was a struct or enum. GATs can also be specified in trait bounds:
```rust
fn accepts_gat<'a, T>(t: &'a T) -> T::Assoc<'a, T>
where for<'x> T: ATraitWithGATs<Assoc<'a, T> = &'a T> {
...
}
```
GATs can also appear in trait methods. However, depending on how they are used, they may confer where clauses on the associated type definition. More information can be found [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87479). Briefly, where clauses are required when those bounds can be proven in the methods that *construct* the GAT or other associated types that use the GAT in the trait. This allows impls to have maximum flexibility in the types defined for the associated type.
To take a relatively simple example:
```rust
trait Iterable {
type Item<'a>;
type Iterator<'a>: Iterator<Item = Self::Item<'a>>;
fn iter<'x>(&'x self) -> Self::Iterator<'x>;
//^ We know that `Self: 'a` for `Iterator<'a>`, so we require that bound on `Iterator`
// `Iterator` uses `Self::Item`, so we also require a `Self: 'a` on `Item` too
}
```
A couple well-explained examples are available in a previous [blog post](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2021/08/03/GATs-stabilization-push.html).
## What isn't stabilized/implemented
### Universal type/const quantification
Currently, you can write a bound like `X: for<'a> Trait<Assoc<'a> = &'a ()>`. However, you cannot currently write `for<T> X: Trait<Assoc<T> = T>` or `for<const N> X: Trait<Assoc<N> = [usize; N]>`.
Here is an example where this is needed:
```rust
trait Foo {}
trait Trait {
type Assoc<F: Foo>;
}
trait Trait2: Sized {
fn foo<F: Foo, T: Trait<Assoc<F> = F>>(_t: T);
}
```
In the above example, the *caller* must specify `F`, which is likely not what is desired.
### Object-safe GATs
Unlike non-generic associated types, traits with GATs are not currently object-safe. In other words the following are not allowed:
```rust
trait Trait {
type Assoc<'a>;
}
fn foo(t: &dyn for<'a> Trait<Assoc<'a> = &'a ()>) {}
//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ not allowed
let ty: Box<dyn for<'a> Trait<Assoc<'a> = &'a ()>>;
//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ not allowed
```
### Higher-kinded types
You cannot write currently (and there are no current plans to implement this):
```rust
struct Struct<'a> {}
fn foo(s: for<'a> Struct<'a>) {}
```
## Tests

## Remaining bugs and open issues
A full list of remaining open issues can be found at: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/F-generic_associated_types
There are some `known-bug` tests in-tree at `src/test/ui/generic-associated-types/bugs`.
Here I'll categorize most of those that GAT bugs (or involve a pattern found more with GATs), but not those that include GATs but not a GAT issue in and of itself. (I also won't include issues directly for things listed elsewhere here.)
Using the concrete type of a GAT instead of the projection type can give errors, since lifetimes are chosen to be early-bound vs late-bound.
- #85533
- #87803
In certain cases, we can run into cycle or overflow errors. This is more generally a problem with associated types.
- #87755
- #87758
Bounds on an associatd type need to be proven by an impl, but where clauses need to be proven by the usage. This can lead to confusion when users write one when they mean the other.
- #87831
- #90573
We sometimes can't normalize closure signatures fully. Really an asociated types issue, but might happen a bit more frequently with GATs, since more obvious place for HRTB lifetimes.
- #88382
When calling a function, we assign types to parameters "too late", after we already try (and fail) to normalize projections. Another associated types issue that might pop up more with GATs.
- #88460
- #96230
We don't fully have implied bounds for lifetimes appearing in GAT trait paths, which can lead to unconstrained type errors.
- #88526
Suggestion for adding lifetime bounds can suggest unhelpful fixes (`T: 'a` instead of `Self: 'a`), but the next compiler error after making the suggested change is helpful.
- #90816
- #92096
- #95268
We can end up requiring that `for<'a> I: 'a` when we really want `for<'a where I: 'a> I: 'a`. This can leave unhelpful errors than effectively can't be satisfied unless `I: 'static`. Requires bigger changes and not only GATs.
- #91693
Unlike with non-generic associated types, we don't eagerly normalize with param env candidates. This is intended behavior (for now), to avoid accidentaly stabilizing picking arbitrary impls.
- #91762
Some Iterator adapter patterns (namely `filter`) require Polonius or unsafe to work.
- #92985
## Potential Future work
### Universal type/const quantification
No work has been done to implement this. There are also some questions around implied bounds.
### Object-safe GATs
The intention is to make traits with GATs object-safe. There are some design work to be done around well-formedness rules and general implementation.
### GATified std lib types
It would be helpful to either introduce new std lib traits (like `LendingIterator`) or to modify existing ones (adding a `'a` generic to `Iterator::Item`). There also a number of other candidates, like `Index`/`IndexMut` and `Fn`/`FnMut`/`FnOnce`.
### Reduce the need for `for<'a>`
Seen [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1598#issuecomment-2611378730). One possible syntax:
```rust
trait Iterable {
type Iter<'a>: Iterator<Item = Self::Item<'a>>;
}
fn foo<T>() where T: Iterable, T::Item<let 'a>: Display { } //note the `let`!
```
### Better implied bounds on higher-ranked things
Currently if we have a `type Item<'a> where self: 'a`, and a `for<'a> T: Iterator<Item<'a> = &'a ()`, this requires `for<'a> Self: 'a`. Really, we want `for<'a where T: 'a> ...`
There was some mentions of this all the back in the RFC thread [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1598#issuecomment-264340514).
## Alternatives
### Make generics on associated type in bounds a binder
Imagine the bound `for<'a> T: Trait<Item<'a>= &'a ()>`. It might be that `for<'a>` is "too large" and it should instead be `T: Trait<for<'a> Item<'a>= &'a ()>`. Brought up in RFC thread [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1598#issuecomment-229443863) and in a few places since.
Another related question: Is `for<'a>` the right syntax? Maybe `where<'a>`? Also originally found in RFC thread [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1598#issuecomment-261639969).
### Stabilize lifetime GATs first
This has been brought up a few times. The idea is to only allow GATs with lifetime parameters to in initial stabilization. This was probably most useful prior to actual implementation. At this point, lifetimes, types, and consts are all implemented and work. It feels like an arbitrary split without strong reason.

The primary purpose of this commit is to introduce the
dyn_star flag so we can begin experimenting with implementation.
In order to have something to do in the feature gate test, we also add
parser support for `dyn* Trait` objects. These are currently treated
just like `dyn Trait` objects, but this will change in the future.
Note that for now `dyn* Trait` is experimental syntax to enable
implementing some of the machinery needed for async fn in dyn traits
without fully supporting the feature.
The `visit_path_segment` method of both the AST and HIR visitors has a
`path_span` argument that isn't necessary. This commit removes it.
There are two very small and inconsequential functional changes.
- One call to `NodeCollector::insert` now is passed a path segment
identifier span instead of a full path span. This span is only used in
a panic message printed in the case of an internal compiler bug.
- Likewise, one call to `LifetimeCollectVisitor::record_elided_anchor`
now uses a path segment identifier span instead of a full path span.
This span is used to make some `'_` lifetimes.
This PR will fix some typos detected by [typos].
I only picked the ones I was sure were spelling errors to fix, mostly in
the comments.

Implement `#[rustc_default_body_unstable]`
This PR implements a new stability attribute — `#[rustc_default_body_unstable]`.
`#[rustc_default_body_unstable]` controls the stability of default bodies in traits.
For example:
```rust
pub trait Trait {
#[rustc_default_body_unstable(feature = "feat", isssue = "none")]
fn item() {}
}
```
In order to implement `Trait` user needs to either
- implement `item` (even though it has a default implementation)
- enable `#![feature(feat)]`
This is useful in conjunction with [`#[rustc_must_implement_one_of]`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/92164), we may want to relax requirements for a trait, for example allowing implementing either of `PartialEq::{eq, ne}`, but do so in a safe way — making implementation of only `PartialEq::ne` unstable.

P.S. This is my first time working with stability attributes, so I'm not sure if I did everything right 😅
This attribute allows to mark default body of a trait function as
unstable. This means that implementing the trait without implementing
the function will require enabling unstable feature.

Improve the function pointer docs
This is #97842 but for function pointers instead of tuples. The concept is basically the same.
* Reduce duplicate impls; show `fn (T₁, T₂, …, Tₙ)` and include a sentence saying that there exists up to twelve of them.
* Show `Copy` and `Clone`.
* Show auto traits like `Send` and `Sync`, and blanket impls like `Any`.

This commit adds a new unstable attribute, `#[doc(tuple_varadic)]`, that
shows a 1-tuple as `(T, ...)` instead of just `(T,)`, and links to a section
in the tuple primitive docs that talks about these.
Add support for emitting functions with `coldcc` to LLVM
The eventual goal is to try using this for things like the internal panicking stuff, to see whether it helps.
