This commit aims to stabilize the `TypeId` abstraction by moving it out of the
`intrinsics` module into the `any` module of the standard library. Specifically,
* `TypeId` is now defined at `std::any::TypeId`
* `TypeId::hash` has been removed in favor of an implementation of `Hash`.
This commit also performs a final pass over the `any` module, confirming the
following:
* `Any::get_type_id` remains unstable as *usage* of the `Any` trait will likely
never require this, and the `Any` trait does not need to be implemented for
any other types. As a result, this implementation detail can remain unstable
until associated statics are implemented.
* `Any::downcast_ref` is now stable
* `Any::downcast_mut` is now stable
* `BoxAny` remains unstable. While a direct impl on `Box<Any>` is allowed today
it does not allow downcasting of trait objects like `Box<Any + Send>` (those
returned from `Thread::join`). This is covered by #18737.
* `BoxAny::downcast` is now stable.

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 503][rfc] which is a stabilization
story for the prelude. Most of the RFC was directly applied, removing reexports.
Some reexports are kept around, however:
* `range` remains until range syntax has landed to reduce churn.
* `Path` and `GenericPath` remain until path reform lands. This is done to
prevent many imports of `GenericPath` which will soon be removed.
* All `io` traits remain until I/O reform lands so imports can be rewritten all
at once to `std::io::prelude::*`.
This is a breaking change because many prelude reexports have been removed, and
the RFC can be consulted for the exact list of removed reexports, as well as to
find the locations of where to import them.

Closes#20068
This change makes the compiler no longer infer whether types (structures
and enumerations) implement the `Copy` trait (and thus are implicitly
copyable). Rather, you must implement `Copy` yourself via `impl Copy for
MyType {}`.
A new warning has been added, `missing_copy_implementations`, to warn
you if a non-generic public type has been added that could have
implemented `Copy` but didn't.
For convenience, you may *temporarily* opt out of this behavior by using
`#![feature(opt_out_copy)]`. Note though that this feature gate will never be
accepted and will be removed by the time that 1.0 is released, so you should
transition your code away from using it.
This breaks code like:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
Change this code to:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
impl Copy for Point2D {}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
This is the backwards-incompatible part of #13231.

This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to
refer to the new locations:
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
=>
```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {
A,
B

fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
or
```
pub enum Foo {
A,

}
fn main() {
let a = Foo::A;

The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when
writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the
possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot
because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak
of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other
circumlocutions.
Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when
operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate
out a section describing the "Err-producing" case.
We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as
an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology
accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe.
To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead.
Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this
will work on UNIX based systems:
grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g'
You can of course also do this by hand.

Spring cleaning is here! In the Fall! This commit removes quite a large amount
of deprecated functionality from the standard libraries. I tried to ensure that
only old deprecated functionality was removed.
This is removing lots and lots of deprecated features, so this is a breaking
change. Please consult the deprecation messages of the deleted code to see how
to migrate code forward if it still needs migration.

This patch does not make many functional changes, but does a lot of restructuring towards the goals of #5527. This is the biggest patch, basically, that should enable most of the other patches in a relatively straightforward way.
Major changes:
- Do not track impls through trans, instead recompute as needed.
- Isolate trait matching code into its own module, carefully structure to distinguish various phases (selection vs confirmation vs fulfillment)
- Consider where clauses in their more general form
- Integrate checking of builtin bounds into the trait matching process, rather than doing it separately in kind.rs (important for opt-in builtin bounds)
What is not included:
- Where clauses are still not generalized. This should be a straightforward follow-up patch.
- Caching. I did not include much caching. I have plans for various kinds of caching we can do. Should be straightforward. Preliminary perf measurements suggested that this branch keeps compilation times roughly what they are.
- Method resolution. The initial algorithm I proposed for #5527 does not work as well as I hoped. I have a revised plan which is much more similar to what we do today.
- Deref vs deref-mut. The initial fix I had worked great for autoderef, but not for explicit deref.
- Permitting blanket impls to overlap with specific impls. Initial plan to consider all nested obligations before considering an impl to match caused many compilation errors. We have a revised plan but it is not implemented here, should be a relatively straightforward extension.
This leaves the `Share` trait at `std::kinds` via a `#[deprecated]` `pub use`
statement, but the `NoShare` struct is no longer part of `std::kinds::marker`
due to #12660 (the build cannot bootstrap otherwise).
All code referencing the `Share` trait should now reference the `Sync` trait,
and all code referencing the `NoShare` type should now reference the `NoSync`
type. The functionality and meaning of this trait have not changed, only the
naming.

This makes edge cases in which the `Iterator` trait was not in scope
and/or `Option` or its variants were not in scope work properly.
This breaks code that looks like:
struct MyStruct { ... }
impl MyStruct {
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<int> { ... }
}
for x in MyStruct { ... } { ... }
Change ad-hoc `next` methods like the above to implementations of the
`Iterator` trait. For example:
impl Iterator<int> for MyStruct {
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<int> { ... }
}
Closes#15392.

This will break code that used the old `Index` trait. Change this code
to use the new `Index` traits. For reference, here are their signatures:
pub trait Index<Index,Result> {
fn index<'a>(&'a self, index: &Index) -> &'a Result;
}
pub trait IndexMut<Index,Result> {
fn index_mut<'a>(&'a mut self, index: &Index) -> &'a mut Result;
}

This completes the last stage of the renaming of the comparison hierarchy of
traits. This change renames TotalEq to Eq and TotalOrd to Ord.
In the future the new Eq/Ord will be filled out with their appropriate methods,
but for now this change is purely a renaming change.
[breaking-change]
This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more
details. All code using Eq/Ord will temporarily need to move to Partial{Eq,Ord}
or the Total{Eq,Ord} traits. The Total traits will soon be renamed to {Eq,Ord}.

This commit is part of the ongoing libstd facade efforts (cc #13851). The
compiler now recognizes some language items as "extern { fn foo(...); }" and
will automatically perform the following actions:
1. The foreign function has a pre-defined name.
2. The crate and downstream crates can only be built as rlibs until a crate
defines the lang item itself.
3. The actual lang item has a pre-defined name.
This is essentially nicer compiler support for the hokey
core-depends-on-std-failure scheme today, but it is implemented the same way.
The details are a little more hidden under the covers.
In addition to failure, this commit promotes the eh_personality and
rust_stack_exhausted functions to official lang items. The compiler can generate
calls to these functions, causing linkage errors if they are left undefined. The
checking for these items is not as precise as it could be. Crates compiling with
`-Z no-landing-pads` will not need the eh_personality lang item, and crates
compiling with no split stacks won't need the stack exhausted lang item. For
ease, however, these items are checked for presence in all final outputs of the
compiler.
It is quite easy to define dummy versions of the functions necessary:
#[lang = "stack_exhausted"]
extern fn stack_exhausted() { /* ... */ }
#[lang = "eh_personality"]
extern fn eh_personality() { /* ... */ }
cc #11922, rust_stack_exhausted is now a lang item
cc #13851, libcollections is blocked on eh_personality becoming weak
Summary:
So far, we've used the term POD "Plain Old Data" to refer to types that
can be safely copied. However, this term is not consistent with the
other built-in bounds that use verbs instead. This patch renames the Pod
kind into Copy.

`Share` implies that all *reachable* content is *threadsafe*.
Threadsafe is defined as "exposing no operation that permits a data race if multiple threads have access to a &T pointer simultaneously". (NB: the type system should guarantee that if you have access to memory via a &T pointer, the only other way to gain access to that memory is through another &T pointer)...

What this PR will do
================
- [x] Add Share kind and
- [x] Replace usages of Freeze with Share in bounds.
- [x] Add Unsafe<T> #12577
- [x] Forbid taking the address of a immutable static item with `Unsafe<T>` interior
What's left to do in a separate PR (after the snapshot)?
===========================================
- Remove `Freeze` completely
These two containers are indeed collections, so their place is in
libcollections, not in libstd. There will always be a hash map as part of the
standard distribution of Rust, but by moving it out of the standard library it
makes libstd that much more portable to more platforms and environments.
This conveniently also removes the stuttering of 'std::hashmap::HashMap',
although 'collections::HashMap' is only one character shorter.
This patch replaces all `crate` usage with `krate` before introducing the
new keyword. This ensures that after introducing the keyword, there
won't be any compilation errors.
krate might not be the most expressive substitution for crate but it's a
very close abbreviation for it. `module` was already used in several
places already.
There are a few reasons that this is a desirable move to take:
1. Proof of concept that a third party event loop is possible
2. Clear separation of responsibility between rt::io and the uv-backend
3. Enforce in the future that the event loop is "pluggable" and replacable
Here's a quick summary of the points of this pull request which make this
possible:
* Two new lang items were introduced: event_loop, and event_loop_factory.
The idea of a "factory" is to define a function which can be called with no
arguments and will return the new event loop as a trait object. This factory
is emitted to the crate map when building an executable. The factory doesn't
have to exist, and when it doesn't then an empty slot is in the crate map and
a basic event loop with no I/O support is provided to the runtime.
* When building an executable, then the rustuv crate will be linked by default
(providing a default implementation of the event loop) via a similar method to
injecting a dependency on libstd. This is currently the only location where
the rustuv crate is ever linked.
* There is a new #[no_uv] attribute (implied by #[no_std]) which denies
implicitly linking to rustuv by default

Also redefine all of the standard logging macros to use more rust code instead
of custom LLVM translation code. This makes them a bit easier to understand, but
also more flexibile for future types of logging.
Additionally, this commit removes the LogType language item in preparation for
changing how logging is performed.
