This commit adds stability markers for the APIs that have recently been
aligned with [numerics
reform](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/369). For APIs that were
changed as part of that reform, `#[unstable]` is used to reflect the
recency, but the APIs will become `#[stable]` in a follow-up pass.
In addition, a few aspects of the APIs not explicitly covered by the RFC
are marked here -- in particular, constants for floats.
This commit does not mark the `uint` or `int` modules as `#[stable]`,
given the ongoing debate out the names and roles of these types.
Due to some deprecation (see the RFC for details), this is a:
[breaking-change]
Make old-fashioned functions in the `std::os` module utilize `IoResult`.
I'm still investigating the possibility to include more functions in this pull request. Currently, it covers `getcwd()`, `make_absolute()`, and `change_dir()`. The issues covered by this PR are #16946 and #16315.
A few concerns:
- Should we provide `OsError` in distinction from `IoError`? I'm saying this because in Python, those two are distinguished. One advantage that we keep using `IoError` is that we can make the error cascade down other functions whose return type also includes `IoError`. An example of such functions is `std::io::TempDir::new_in()`, which uses `os::make_absolute()` as well as returns `IoResult<TempDir>`.
- `os::getcwd()` uses an internal buffer whose size is 2048 bytes, which is passed to `getcwd(3)`. There is no upper limitation of file paths in the POSIX standard, but typically it is set to 4096 bytes such as in Linux. Should we increase the buffer size? One thing that makes me nervous is that the size of 2048 bytes already seems a bit excessive, thinking that in normal cases, there would be no filenames that even exceeds 512 bytes.
Fixes#16946.
Fixes#16315.
Any ideas are welcomed. Thanks!
os::change_dir() returns bool, without a meaningful error message.
Change it to return IoResult<()> to indicate what IoError caused the
failure.
Fixes#16315.

os::getcwd() panics if the current directory is not available. According
to getcwd(3), there are three cases:
- EACCES: Permission denied.
- ENOENT: The current working directory has been removed.
- ERANGE: The buffer size is less than the actual absolute path.
This commit makes os::getcwd() return IoResult<Path>, not just Path,
preventing it from panicking.
As os::make_absolute() depends on os::getcwd(), it is also modified to
return IoResult<Path>.
Fixes#16946.

Enough said.
Fixes#18639.

This is a [breaking-change]. In particular, several feature gates related to unboxed closures were consolidated into one (`overloaded_calls`, `unboxed_closure_sugar` => `unboxed_closures`). Otherwise, I think everything that worked before should still work. File a bug and cc @nikomatsakis if you find otherwise. :)
region binding at the impl site, so for method types that come from impls,
it is necessary to liberate/instantiate late-bound regions at multiple
depths.
Edit: whoops, didn't mean to hit post.
Anyway, this is something I tried to do when I first implemented cloned, but couldn't figure out. Somewhere between then and the PR actually landing, we got Deref of references, so now this works! 🎉
Also turns out the test for the functionality was never marked as a #[test]. Oops!
Also added a Cloned iterator adaptor. If this isn't desirable, it can be taken out of the PR (seperate commits).
Reduces memory usage significantly and opens opportunities for more parallel compilation.
This PR was previously #19002 but I closed it because bors didn't seem to recognize the `r+` annotations there.
The trait has an obvious, sensible implementation directly on vectors so
the MemWriter wrapper is unnecessary. This will halt the trend towards
providing all of the vector methods on MemWriter along with eliminating
the noise caused by conversions between the two types. It also provides
the useful default Writer methods on Vec<u8>.
After the type is removed and code has been migrated, it would make
sense to add a new implementation of MemWriter with seeking support. The
simple use cases can be covered with vectors alone, and ones with the
need for seeks can use a new MemWriter implementation.

- CFG_CFLAGS is only used for jemalloc
- We grew an extra set of flags for jemalloc (CFG_JEMALLOC_CFLAGS) in addition to CFG_CFLAGS
- This kills of CFG_CFLAGS and keeps the more specific and less confusing CFG_JEMALLOC_CFLAGS
- Additionally, pass CFG_JEMALLOC_CFLAGS to jemalloc's configure slightly differently so things work when people use --sysroot in their CFLAGS.
