This commit is the final step in the libstd facade, #13851. The purpose of this
commit is to move libsync underneath the standard library, behind the facade.
This will allow core primitives like channels, queues, and atomics to all live
in the same location.
There were a few notable changes and a few breaking changes as part of this
movement:
* The `Vec` and `String` types are reexported at the top level of libcollections
* The `unreachable!()` macro was copied to libcore
* The `std::rt::thread` module was moved to librustrt, but it is still
reexported at the same location.
* The `std::comm` module was moved to libsync
* The `sync::comm` module was moved under `sync::comm`, and renamed to `duplex`.
It is now a private module with types/functions being reexported under
`sync::comm`. This is a breaking change for any existing users of duplex
streams.
* All concurrent queues/deques were moved directly under libsync. They are also
all marked with #![experimental] for now if they are public.
* The `task_pool` and `future` modules no longer live in libsync, but rather
live under `std::sync`. They will forever live at this location, but they may
move to libsync if the `std::task` module moves as well.

This commit uses the same trick as ~/Box to map Gc<T> to @T internally inside
the compiler. This moves a number of implementations of traits to the `gc`
module in the standard library.
This removes functions such as `Gc::new`, `Gc::borrow`, and `Gc::ptr_eq` in
favor of the more modern equivalents, `box(GC)`, `Deref`, and pointer equality.
The Gc pointer itself should be much more useful now, and subsequent commits

As part of the libstd facade efforts, this commit extracts the runtime interface
out of the standard library into a standalone crate, librustrt. This crate will
provide the following services:
* Definition of the rtio interface
* Definition of the Runtime interface
* Implementation of the Task structure
* Implementation of task-local-data
* Implementation of task failure via unwinding via libunwind
* Implementation of runtime initialization and shutdown
* Implementation of thread-local-storage for the local rust Task
Notably, this crate avoids the following services:
* Thread creation and destruction. The crate does not require the knowledge of
an OS threading system, and as a result it seemed best to leave out the
`rt::thread` module from librustrt. The librustrt module does depend on
mutexes, however.
* Implementation of backtraces. There is no inherent requirement for the runtime
to be able to generate backtraces. As will be discussed later, this
functionality continues to live in libstd rather than librustrt.
As usual, a number of architectural changes were required to make this crate
possible. Users of "stable" functionality will not be impacted by this change,
but users of the `std::rt` module will likely note the changes. A list of
architectural changes made is:
* The stdout/stderr handles no longer live directly inside of the `Task`
structure. This is a consequence of librustrt not knowing about `std::io`.
These two handles are now stored inside of task-local-data.
The handles were originally stored inside of the `Task` for perf reasons, and
TLD is not currently as fast as it could be. For comparison, 100k prints goes
from 59ms to 68ms (a 15% slowdown). This appeared to me to be an acceptable
perf loss for the successful extraction of a librustrt crate.
* The `rtio` module was forced to duplicate more functionality of `std::io`. As
the module no longer depends on `std::io`, `rtio` now defines structures such
as socket addresses, addrinfo fiddly bits, etc. The primary change made was
that `rtio` now defines its own `IoError` type. This type is distinct from
`std::io::IoError` in that it does not have an enum for what error occurred,
but rather a platform-specific error code.
The native and green libraries will be updated in later commits for this
change, and the bulk of this effort was put behind updating the two libraries
for this change (with `rtio`).
* Printing a message on task failure (along with the backtrace) continues to
live in libstd, not in librustrt. This is a consequence of the above decision
to move the stdout/stderr handles to TLD rather than inside the `Task` itself.
The unwinding API now supports registration of global callback functions which
will be invoked when a task fails, allowing for libstd to register a function
to print a message and a backtrace.
The API for registering a callback is experimental and unsafe, as the
ramifications of running code on unwinding is pretty hairy.
* The `std::unstable::mutex` module has moved to `std::rt::mutex`.
* The `std::unstable::sync` module has been moved to `std::rt::exclusive` and
the type has been rewritten to not internally have an Arc and to have an RAII
guard structure when locking. Old code should stop using `Exclusive` in favor
of the primitives in `libsync`, but if necessary, old code should port to
`Arc<Exclusive<T>>`.
* The local heap has been stripped down to have fewer debugging options. None of
these were tested, and none of these have been used in a very long time.

As with the previous commit with `librand`, this commit shuffles around some
`collections` code. The new state of the world is similar to that of librand:
* The libcollections crate now only depends on libcore and liballoc.
* The standard library has a new module, `std::collections`. All functionality
of libcollections is reexported through this module.
I would like to stress that this change is purely cosmetic. There are very few
alterations to these primitives.
There are a number of notable points about the new organization:
* std::{str, slice, string, vec} all moved to libcollections. There is no reason
that these primitives shouldn't be necessarily usable in a freestanding
context that has allocation. These are all reexported in their usual places in
the standard library.
* The `hashmap`, and transitively the `lru_cache`, modules no longer reside in
`libcollections`, but rather in libstd. The reason for this is because the
`HashMap::new` contructor requires access to the OSRng for initially seeding
the hash map. Beyond this requirement, there is no reason that the hashmap
could not move to libcollections.
I do, however, have a plan to move the hash map to the collections module. The
`HashMap::new` function could be altered to require that the `H` hasher
parameter ascribe to the `Default` trait, allowing the entire `hashmap` module
to live in libcollections. The key idea would be that the default hasher would
be different in libstd. Something along the lines of:
// src/libstd/collections/mod.rs
pub type HashMap<K, V, H = RandomizedSipHasher> =
core_collections::HashMap<K, V, H>;
This is not possible today because you cannot invoke static methods through
type aliases. If we modified the compiler, however, to allow invocation of
static methods through type aliases, then this type definition would
essentially be switching the default hasher from `SipHasher` in libcollections
to a libstd-defined `RandomizedSipHasher` type. This type's `Default`
implementation would randomly seed the `SipHasher` instance, and otherwise
perform the same as `SipHasher`.
This future state doesn't seem incredibly far off, but until that time comes,
the hashmap module will live in libstd to not compromise on functionality.
* In preparation for the hashmap moving to libcollections, the `hash` module has
moved from libstd to libcollections. A previously snapshotted commit enables a
distinct `Writer` trait to live in the `hash` module which `Hash`
implementations are now parameterized over.
Due to using a custom trait, the `SipHasher` implementation has lost its
specialized methods for writing integers. These can be re-added
backwards-compatibly in the future via default methods if necessary, but the
FNV hashing should satisfy much of the need for speedier hashing.
A list of breaking changes:
* HashMap::{get, get_mut} no longer fails with the key formatted into the error
message with `{:?}`, instead, a generic message is printed. With backtraces,
it should still be not-too-hard to track down errors.
* The HashMap, HashSet, and LruCache types are now available through
std::collections instead of the collections crate.
* Manual implementations of hash should be parameterized over `hash::Writer`
instead of just `Writer`.

This change tags examples in other languages by

This completes the last stage of the renaming of the comparison hierarchy of
traits. This change renames TotalEq to Eq and TotalOrd to Ord.

but for now this change is purely a renaming change.

This commit adds support in rustdoc to recognize the `#[doc(primitive = "foo")]`
attribute. This attribute indicates that the current module is the "owner" of
the primitive type `foo`. For rustdoc, this means that the doc-comment for the
module is the doc-comment for the primitive type, plus a signal to all
downstream crates that hyperlinks for primitive types will be directed at the
crate containing the `#[doc]` directive.
Additionally, rustdoc will favor crates closest to the one being documented
which "implements the primitive type". For example, documentation of libcore
links to libcore for primitive types, but documentation for libstd and beyond
all links to libstd for primitive types.
This change involves no compiler modifications, it is purely a rustdoc change.
The landing pages for the primitive types primarily serve to show a list of
implemented traits for the primitive type itself.
The primitive types documented includes both strings and slices in a semi-ad-hoc
way, but in a way that should provide at least somewhat meaningful
documentation.

This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more

This commit shuffles around some of the `rand` code, along with some
reorganization. The new state of the world is as follows:
* The librand crate now only depends on libcore. This interface is experimental.
* The standard library has a new module, `std::rand`. This interface will
eventually become stable.
Unfortunately, this entailed more of a breaking change than just shuffling some
names around. The following breaking changes were made to the rand library:
* Rng::gen_vec() was removed. This has been replaced with Rng::gen_iter() which
will return an infinite stream of random values. Previous behavior can be
regained with `rng.gen_iter().take(n).collect()`
* Rng::gen_ascii_str() was removed. This has been replaced with
Rng::gen_ascii_chars() which will return an infinite stream of random ascii
characters. Similarly to gen_iter(), previous behavior can be emulated with
`rng.gen_ascii_chars().take(n).collect()`
* {IsaacRng, Isaac64Rng, XorShiftRng}::new() have all been removed. These all
relied on being able to use an OSRng for seeding, but this is no longer
available in librand (where these types are defined). To retain the same
functionality, these types now implement the `Rand` trait so they can be
generated with a random seed from another random number generator. This allows
the stdlib to use an OSRng to create seeded instances of these RNGs.
* Rand implementations for `Box<T>` and `@T` were removed. These seemed to be
pretty rare in the codebase, and it allows for libcore to not depend on
liballoc. Additionally, other pointer types like Rc<T> and Arc<T> were not
supported. If this is undesirable, librand can depend on liballoc and regain
these implementations.
* The WeightedChoice structure is no longer built with a `Vec<Weighted<T>>`,
but rather a `&mut [Weighted<T>]`. This means that the WeightedChoice
structure now has a lifetime associated with it.

This is a transitionary step towards completing #12517. This change modifies the

After a snapshot, all of deriving(Eq, Ord) will be removed, and after a snapshot
of that, TotalEq/TotalOrd will be renamed to Eq/Ord.
This is an attempt of fixing #12925.
This PR moves almost all trait implementations for primitive types ((), bool, char, i*, u*, f*) near trait definitions. Only Float trait implementations weren't moved because they heavily rely on constants defined in f32.rs and f64.rs.
Some trait implementations had cfg(not(test)) attribute. I suspect it's because of issue 2912.
Still, someone who knows the problem better should probably check this code.

Paper over privacy issues with Deref by changing field names.
Types that implement Deref can cause weird error messages due to their
private fields conflicting with a field of the type they deref to, e.g.,
previously
struct Foo { x: int }
let a: Arc<Foo> = ...;
println!("{}", a.x);
would complain the the `x` field of `Arc` was private (since Arc has a
private field called `x`) rather than just ignoring it.
This patch doesn't fix that issue, but does mean one would have to write
`a._ptr` to hit the same error message, which seems far less
common. (This patch `_`-prefixes all private fields of
`Deref`-implementing types.)

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.

This commit fills in the documentation holes for the FormatWriter trait which
were previously accidentally left blank. Additionally, this adds the `write_fmt`
method to the trait to allow usage of the `write!` macro with implementors of
the `FormatWriter` trait. This is not useful for consumers of the standard
library who should generally avoid the `FormatWriter` trait, but it is useful
for consumers of the core library who are not using the standard library.

This changes the previously naive string searching algorithm to a two-way search like glibc, which should be faster on average while still maintaining worst case linear time complexity. This fixes#14107. Note that I don't think this should be merged yet, as this is the only approach to speeding up search I've tried - it's worth considering options like Boyer-Moore or adding a bad character shift table to this. However, the benchmarks look quite good so far:
test str::bench::bench_contains_bad_naive ... bench: 290 ns/iter (+/- 12) from 1309 ns/iter (+/- 36)
test str::bench::bench_contains_equal ... bench: 479 ns/iter (+/- 10) from 137 ns/iter (+/- 2)
test str::bench::bench_contains_short_long ... bench: 2844 ns/iter (+/- 105) from 5473 ns/iter (+/- 14)
test str::bench::bench_contains_short_short ... bench: 55 ns/iter (+/- 4) from 57 ns/iter (+/- 6)
Except for the case specifically designed to be optimal for the naive case (`bench_contains_equal`), this gets as good or better performance as the previous code.
This is a migration of the std::{f32, f64}::to_str* functionality to the core
library. This removes the growable `Vec` used in favor of a large stack buffer.
The maximum base 10 exponent for f64 is 308, so a stack buffer of 512 bytes
should be sufficient to store all floats.
1. Wherever the `buf` field of a `Formatter` was used, the `Formatter` is used
instead.
2. The usage of `write_fmt` is minimized as much as possible, the `write!` macro
is preferred wherever possible.
3. Usage of `fmt::write` is minimized, favoring the `write!` macro instead.
Now that std::fmt is in libcore, it's possible to implement this as an inherit
method rather than through extension traits.
This commit also tweaks the failure interface of libcore to libstd to what it
should be, one method taking &fmt::Arguments
This commit moves all possible functionality from the standard library's string
formatting utilities into the core library. This is a breaking change, due to a
few tweaks in the semantics of formatting:
1. In order to break the dependency on the std::io module, a new trait,
FormatWriter was introduced in core::fmt. This is the trait which is used
(instead of Writer) to format data into a stream.
2. The new FormatWriter trait has one method, write(), which takes some bytes
and can return an error, but the error contains very little information. The
intent for this trait is for an adaptor writer to be used around the standard
library's Writer trait.
3. The fmt::write{,ln,_unsafe} methods no longer take &mut io::Writer, but
rather &mut FormatWriter. Since this trait is less common, all functions were
removed except fmt::write, and it is not intended to be invoked directly.
The main API-breaking change here is that the fmt::Formatter structure will no
longer expose its `buf` field. All previous code writing directly to `f.buf`
using writer methods or the `write!` macro will now instead use `f` directly.
The Formatter object itself implements the `Writer` trait itself for
convenience, although it does not implement the `FormatWriter` trait. The
fallout of these changes will be in the following commits.

The Float trait in libstd is quite a large trait which has dependencies on cmath
(libm) and such, which libcore cannot satisfy. It also has many functions that
libcore can implement, however, as LLVM has intrinsics or they're just bit
twiddling.
This commit moves what it can of the Float trait from the standard library into
libcore to allow floats to be usable in the core library. The remaining
functions are now resident in a FloatMath trait in the standard library (in the
prelude now). Previous code which was generic over just the Float trait may now
need to be generic over the FloatMath trait.

The core library in theory has 0 dependencies, but in practice it has some in
order for it to be efficient. These dependencies are in the form of the basic
memory operations provided by libc traditionally, such as memset, memcmp, etc.
These functions are trivial to implement and themselves have 0 dependencies.
This commit adds a new crate, librlibc, which will serve the purpose of
providing these dependencies. The crate is never linked to by default, but is
available to be linked to by downstream consumers. Normally these functions are
provided by the system libc, but in other freestanding contexts a libc may not
be available. In these cases, librlibc will suffice for enabling execution with
libcore.

This implements set_timeout() for std::io::Process which will affect wait()
operations on the process. This follows the same pattern as the rest of the
timeouts emerging in std::io::net.
The implementation was super easy for everything except libnative on unix
(backwards from usual!), which required a good bit of signal handling. There's a
doc comment explaining the strategy in libnative. Internally, this also required
refactoring the "helper thread" implementation used by libnative to allow for an
extra helper thread (not just the timer).
This is a breaking change in terms of the io::Process API. It is now possible
for wait() to fail, and subsequently wait_with_output(). These two functions now
return IoResult<T> due to the fact that they can time out.
Additionally, the wait_with_output() function has moved from taking `&mut self`
to taking `self`. If a timeout occurs while waiting with output, the semantics
are undesirable in almost all cases if attempting to re-wait on the process.
Equivalent functionality can still be achieved by dealing with the output
handles manually.

The Normalizations iterator has been renamed to Decompositions.
It does not currently include all forms of Unicode normalization,
but only encompasses decompositions.
If implemented recomposition would likely be a separate iterator
which works on the result of this one.

The compiler was updated to recognize that implementations for ty_uniq(..) are
allowed if the Box lang item is located in the current crate. This enforces the
idea that libcore cannot allocated, and moves all related trait implementations
from libcore to libstd.
This is a breaking change in that the AnyOwnExt trait has moved from the any
module to the owned module. Any previous users of std::any::AnyOwnExt should now
use std::owned::AnyOwnExt instead. This was done because the trait is intended
for Box traits and only Box traits.

This commit revisits the `cast` module in libcore and libstd, and scrutinizes
all functions inside of it. The result was to remove the `cast` module entirely,
folding all functionality into the `mem` module. Specifically, this is the fate
of each function in the `cast` module.
* transmute - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is now marked as
#[unstable]. This is due to planned changes to the `transmute`
function and how it can be invoked (see the #[unstable] comment).
For more information, see RFC 5 and #12898
* transmute_copy - This function was moved to `mem`, with clarification that is
is not an error to invoke it with T/U that are different
sizes, but rather that it is strongly discouraged. This
function is now #[stable]
* forget - This function was moved to `mem` and marked #[stable]
* bump_box_refcount - This function was removed due to the deprecation of
managed boxes as well as its questionable utility.
* transmute_mut - This function was previously deprecated, and removed as part
of this commit.
* transmute_mut_unsafe - This function doesn't serve much of a purpose when it
can be achieved with an `as` in safe code, so it was
removed.
* transmute_lifetime - This function was removed because it is likely a strong
indication that code is incorrect in the first place.
* transmute_mut_lifetime - This function was removed for the same reasons as
`transmute_lifetime`
* copy_lifetime - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is marked
`#[unstable]` now due to the likelihood of being removed in
the future if it is found to not be very useful.
* copy_mut_lifetime - This function was also moved to `mem`, but had the same
treatment as `copy_lifetime`.
* copy_lifetime_vec - This function was removed because it is not used today,
and its existence is not necessary with DST
(copy_lifetime will suffice).
In summary, the cast module was stripped down to these functions, and then the
functions were moved to the `mem` module.

In stage0, all allocations are 8-byte aligned. Passing a size and
alignment to free is not yet implemented everywhere (0 size and 8 align
are used as placeholders). Fixing this is part of #13994.
Closes#13616
As part of the shift from ~[T] to Vec<T>, recently ~[T] was made
non-growable. However, the FromIterator implementation for ~[T] was left
intact (albeit implemented inefficiently), which basically provided a
loophole to grow a ~[T] despite its non-growable nature. This is a
problem, both for performance reasons and because it encourages APIs to
continue returning ~[T] when they should return Vec<T>. Removing
FromIterator forces these APIs to adopt the correct type.
Furthermore, during today's weekly meeting it was decided that we should
remove all instances of ~[T] from the standard libraries in favor of
Vec<T>. Removing the FromIterator impl makes sense to do as a result.
This commit only includes the removal of the FromIterator impl. The
subsequent commits involve handling all of the breakage that results,
including changing APIs to use Vec<T> instead of ~[T]. The precise API
changes are documented in the subsequent commit messages, but each
commit is not individually marked as a breaking change.
Finally, a new trait FromVec is introduced that provides a mechanism to
convert Vec<T> back into ~[T] if truly necessary. It is a bit awkward to
use by design, and is anticipated that it will be more useful in a
post-DST world to convert to an arbitrary Foo<[T]> smart pointer.

This mostly involved frobbing imports between realstd, realcore, and the core
being test. Some of the imports are a little counterintuitive, but it mainly
focuses around libcore's types not implementing Show while libstd's types
implement Show.
The prospects of a generic failure function such as this existing in libcore are
bleak, due to monomorphization not working across the crate boundary, and
allocation into a ~Any is not allowed in libcore.
The argument to expect() is now &str instead of <M: Send + Any>
[breaking-change]
This adds an small of failure to libcore, hamstrung by the fact that std::fmt
hasn't been migrated yet. A few asserts were re-worked to not use std::fmt
features, but these asserts can go back to their original form once std::fmt has
migrated.
The current failure implementation is to just have some symbols exposed by
std::rt::unwind that are linked against by libcore. This is an explicit circular
dependency, unfortunately. This will be officially supported in the future
through compiler support with much nicer failure messages. Additionally, there
are two depended-upon symbols today, but in the future there will only be one
(once std::fmt has migrated).
Coherence requires that libcore's traits be implemented in libcore for ~[T] and
~str (due to them being language defined types). These implementations cannot
live in libcore forever, but for now, until Heap/Box/Uniq is a lang item, these
implementations must reside inside of libcore. While not perfect
implementations, these shouldn't reside in libcore for too long.
With some form of lang item these implementations can be in a proper crate
because the lang item will not be present in libcore.
This moves as much allocation as possible from teh std::str module into
core::str. This includes essentially all non-allocating functionality, mostly
iterators and slicing and such.
This primarily splits the Str trait into only having the as_slice() method,
adding a new StrAllocating trait to std::str which contains the relevant new
allocation methods. This is a breaking change if any of the methods of "trait
Str" were overriden. The old functionality can be restored by implementing both
the Str and StrAllocating traits.
[breaking-change]
This commit adds a new trait, MutableVectorAllocating, which represents
functions on vectors which can allocate.
This is another extension trait to slices which should be removed once a lang
item exists for the ~ allocation.
This implements all traits inside of core::num for all the primitive types,
removing all the functionality from libstd. The std modules reexport all of the
necessary items from the core modules.
This strips out all string-related functionality from the num module. The
inherited functionality is all that will be implemented in libcore (for now).
Primarily, libcore will not implement the Float trait or any string-related
functionality.
It may be possible to migrate string parsing functionality into libcore in the
future, but for now it will remain in libstd.
All functionality in core::num is reexported in std::num.
This commit removes the std::{managed, reference} modules. The modules serve
essentially no purpose, and the only free function removed was `managed::ptr_eq`
which can be achieved by comparing references.
[breaking-change]
This removes the TotalOrd and TotalEq implementation macros, they will be added
later to the numeric modules (where the other comparison implementations live).
