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.

The goal of this refactoring is to make the rustc driver code easier to understand and use. Since this is as close to an API as we have, I think it is important that it is nice. On getting stuck in, I found that there wasn't as much to change as I'd hoped to make the stage... functions easier to use by tools (which is a good thing :-) ).
This patch only moves code around - mostly just moving code to different files, but a few extracted method refactorings too. To summarise the changes: I added driver::config which handles everything about configuring the compiler. driver::session now just defines and builds session objects. I moved driver code from librustc/lib.rs to librustc/driver/mod.rs so all the code is one place. I extracted methods to make emulating the compiler without being the compiler a little easier. Within the driver directory, I moved code around to more logically fit in the modules.
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.

ty::substs struct. This is a holdover from the olden days of yore. This patch
removes the last vestiges of that practice. This is part of the work
I was doing on #5527.
With `~[T]` no longer growable, the `FromIterator` impl for `~[T]` doesn't make
much sense. Not only that, but nearly everywhere it is used is to convert from
a `Vec<T>` into a `~[T]`, for the sake of maintaining existing APIs. This turns
out to be a performance loss, as it means every API that returns `~[T]`, even a
supposedly non-copying one, is in fact doing extra allocations and memcpy's.
Even `&[T].to_owned()` is going through `Vec<T>` first.
Remove the `FromIterator` impl for `~[T]`, and adjust all the APIs that relied
on it to start using `Vec<T>` instead. This includes rewriting
`&[T].to_owned()` to be more efficient, among other performance wins.
Also add a new mechanism to go from `Vec<T>` -> `~[T]`, just in case anyone
truly needs that, using the new trait `FromVec`.

The code in resolve erroneously assumed that private enums weren't visited, so
the logic was adjusted to check to see if the enum definition itself was public.

As part of #5527 I had to make some changes here and I just couldn't take it anymore. Refactor the writeback code. Should be functionally equivalent to the old stuff.

This commit brings the local_data api up to modern rust standards with a few key
improvements:
* All functionality is now exposed as a method on the keys themselves. Instead
of importing std::local_data, you now use "key.set()" and "key.get()".
* All closures have been removed in favor of RAII functionality. This means that
get() and get_mut() no long require closures, but rather return
Option<SmartPointer> where the smart pointer takes care of relinquishing the
borrow and also implements the necessary Deref traits
* The modify() function was removed to cut the local_data interface down to its
bare essentials (similarly to how RefCell removed set/get).

through `RefCell`.

Previously, the parser would not allow you to simultaneously implement a
function with a different abi as well as being unsafe at the same time. This
extends the parser to allow functions of the form:
unsafe extern fn foo() {
// ...
}
The closure type grammar was also changed to reflect this reversal, types
previously written as "extern unsafe fn()" must now be written as
"unsafe extern fn()". The parser currently has a hack which allows the old
style, but this will go away once a snapshot has landed.

Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

Currently, rustc requires that a linkage be a product of 100% rlibs or 100%
dylibs. This is to satisfy the requirement that each object appear at most once
in the final output products. This is a bit limiting, and the upcoming libcore
library cannot exist as a dylib, so these rules must change.
The goal of this commit is to enable *some* use cases for mixing rlibs and
dylibs, primarily libcore's use case. It is not targeted at allowing an
exhaustive number of linkage flavors.
There is a new dependency_format module in rustc which calculates what format
each upstream library should be linked as in each output type of the current
unit of compilation. The module itself contains many gory details about what's
going on here.

By carefully distinguishing falling back to the default arm from moving
on to the next pattern, this patch adjusts the codegen logic for range
and guarded arms of pattern matching expression. It is a more

such as #13867.

This patch fixes issue #13186.
When generating constant expression for enum, it is possible that
alignment of expression may be not equal to alignment of type. In that
case space after last struct field must be padded to match size of value
and size of struct. This commit adds that padding.
See detailed explanation in src/test/run-pass/trans-tag-static-padding.rs
This was removed because these could alias with `&const T` or `@mut T`
and those are now gone from the language. There are still aliasing
issues within local scopes, but this is correct for function parameters.
This also removes the no-op `noalias` marker on proc (not a pointer) and
leaves out the mention of #6750 because real type-based alias analysis
is not within the scope of best effort usage of the `noalias` attribute.

Some cases were not correctly handled by this lint, for instance `let a = 42u8; a < 0` and `let a = 42u8; a > 255`.
It led to the discovery of two useless comparisons, which I removed.
This has long since not been too relevant since the introduction of many crate

the most reasonable thing when building both a library and an executable.

This ensures that private functions exported through static initializers will
actually end up being public in the object file (so other objects can continue
to reference the function).

I don't think the change from a contains lookup to an iteration of the HashSet in the resolver should be much of a burden as the set of methods with the same name should be relatively small.
This is a first patch towards an opt-in built-in trait world. This patch removes the restriction on built-in traits and allows such traits to be derived.
