Replace syntax::opt_vec with syntax::owned_slice
The `owned_slice::OwnedSlice` is `(*T, uint)` (i.e. a direct equivalent to DSTs `~[T]`).
This shaves two words off the old OptVec type; and also makes substituting in other implementations easy, by removing all the mutation methods. (And also everything that's very rarely/never used.)
If the dwShareMode parameter is 0 on windows, it "prevents other processes from
opening a file or device if they request delete, read, or write access", which
is the opposite of what we want! This changes the 0 parameter to something which
will allow multiple processes to open the file and then lock it.

A major discoverability issue with rustdoc is that all crates have their
documentation built in isolation, so it's difficult when looking at the
documentation for libstd to learn that there's a libcollections crate with a
HashMap in it.
This commit moves rustdoc a little closer to improving the multiple crate
experience. This unifies all search indexes for all crates into one file so all
pages share the same search index. This allows searching to work across crates
in the same documentation directory (as the standard distribution is currently
built).
This strategy involves updating a shared file amongst many rustdoc processes, so
I implemented a simple file locking API for handling synchronization for updates
to the shared files.

This commit moves all logging out of the standard library into an external
crate. This crate is the new crate which is responsible for all logging macros
and logging implementation. A few reasons for this change are:
* The crate map has always been a bit of a code smell among rust programs. It
has difficulty being loaded on almost all platforms, and it's used almost
exclusively for logging and only logging. Removing the crate map is one of the
end goals of this movement.
* The compiler has a fair bit of special support for logging. It has the
__log_level() expression as well as generating a global word per module
specifying the log level. This is unfairly favoring the built-in logging
system, and is much better done purely in libraries instead of the compiler
itself.
* Initialization of logging is much easier to do if there is no reliance on a
magical crate map being available to set module log levels.
* If the logging library can be written outside of the standard library, there's
no reason that it shouldn't be. It's likely that we're not going to build the
highest quality logging library of all time, so third-party libraries should
be able to provide just as high-quality logging systems as the default one
provided in the rust distribution.
With a migration such as this, the change does not come for free. There are some
subtle changes in the behavior of liblog vs the previous logging macros:
* The core change of this migration is that there is no longer a physical
log-level per module. This concept is still emulated (it is quite useful), but
there is now only a global log level, not a local one. This global log level
is a reflection of the maximum of all log levels specified. The previously
generated logging code looked like:
if specified_level <= __module_log_level() {
println!(...)
}
The newly generated code looks like:
if specified_level <= ::log::LOG_LEVEL {
if ::log::module_enabled(module_path!()) {
println!(...)
}
}
Notably, the first layer of checking is still intended to be "super fast" in
that it's just a load of a global word and a compare. The second layer of
checking is executed to determine if the current module does indeed have
logging turned on.
This means that if any module has a debug log level turned on, all modules
with debug log levels get a little bit slower (they all do more expensive
dynamic checks to determine if they're turned on or not).
Semantically, this migration brings no change in this respect, but
runtime-wise, this will have a perf impact on some code.
* A `RUST_LOG=::help` directive will no longer print out a list of all modules
that can be logged. This is because the crate map will no longer specify the
log levels of all modules, so the list of modules is not known. Additionally,
warnings can no longer be provided if a malformed logging directive was
supplied.
The new "hello world" for logging looks like:
#[phase(syntax, link)]
extern crate log;
fn main() {
debug!("Hello, world!");
}
This commit shreds all remnants of libextra from the compiler and standard
distribution. Two modules, c_vec/tempfile, were moved into libstd after some
cleanup, and the other modules were moved to separate crates as seen fit.

lint: add lint for use of a `~[T]`.
This is useless at the moment (since pretty much every crate uses
`~[]`), but should help avoid regressions once completely removed from a
crate.
The `~str` type is not long for this world as it will be superseded by the
soon-to-come DST changes for the language. The new type will be
`~Str`, and matching over the allocation will no longer be supported.
Matching on `&str` will continue to work, in both a pre and post DST world.
Previously the :hover rules were making the links to the traits/types in
something like
impl<K: Hash + Eq, V> ... { ... }
be displayed with a trailing `§` when hovered over. This commit
restricts that behaviour to specific headers, i.e. those that are known
to be section headers (like those rendered in markdown doc-comments, and
the "Modules", "Functions" etc. headings).
The manual, tutorial and guides need the feature gates quite often,
unfortunately, so this is the low-cost path to migrating to use
rustdoc. This is only activated for pure-Markdown files.
Preferably this would be avoided: #12773
This avoids having to include JS in the guide/tutorial/manual pages just
to get the headers being links. The on-hover behaviour showing the
little section marker § is preserved, because that gives a useful hint
that the heading is a link.
markdown files.
This means that
# Foo
## Bar
# Baz
### Qux
## Quz
Gets a TOC like
1 Foo
1.1 Bar
2 Baz
2.0.1 Qux
2.1 Quz
This functionality is only used when rendering a single markdown file,
never on an individual module, although it could very feasibly be
extended to allow modules to opt-in to a table of contents (std::fmt
comes to mind).
This theoretically gives rustdoc the ability to render our guides,
tutorial and manual (not in practice, since the files themselves need to
be adjusted slightly to use Sundown-compatible functionality).
Fixes#11392.
A structure's definition and implementation may be cross-module. If the
implementing module is parsed before defining module, the fully
qualified name of the structure won't be present for the implementation
to use when being indexed. So caches such 'orphan' implementation and
indexes it at the end of crate parsing.
Closes#10284.
This leverages the new hashing framework and hashmap implementation to provide a
much speedier hashing algorithm for node ids and def ids. The hash algorithm
used is currentl FNV hashing, but it's quite easy to swap out.
I originally implemented hashing as the identity function, but this actually
ended up in slowing down rustc compiling libstd from 8s to 13s. I would suspect
that this is a result of a large number of collisions.
With FNV hashing, we get these timings (compiling with --no-trans, in seconds):
| | before | after |
|-----------|---------:|--------:|
| libstd | 8.324 | 6.703 |
| stdtest | 47.674 | 46.857 |
| libsyntax | 9.918 | 8.400 |
This commit adds a appear-on-over link to all section headers to generated
documentation. Each header also receives an id now, even those generated through
markdown. The purpose of this is to provide easy to link to sections.
This modifies the default header markdown generation because the default id
added looks like "toc_NN" which is difficult to reconcile among all sections (by
default each section gets a "toc_0" id), and it's also not very descriptive of
where you're going.
This chooses to adopt the github-style anchors by taking the contents of the
title and hyphen-separating them (after lower casing).
Closes#12681
Macro definitions are just their raw source code, and so should be
highlighted where possible. Also, $ident non-terminal substitutions are
special, and so are worth of a little special treatment.
This helps prevent interleaving of error messages when running rustdoc tests.
This has an interesting bit of shuffling with I/O handles, but other than that
this is just using the APIs laid out in the previous commit.
Closes#12623
