This commit adds an implementation of the `Linker` trait which is used to drive
MSVC's `link.exe` support. Nothing too surprising here as it's mostly just
filling out the necessary tidbits here and there.
These libraries don't exist! The linker for MSVC is highly likely to not pass
`/NODEFAULTLIB` in which case the right standard library will automatically be
selected.
This commit was initially written to target either `ar` or `lib.exe` for MSVC,
but it ended up not needing `lib.exe` support after all. I would personally like
to refactor this to one day not invoke processes at all (but rather use the
`llvm-ar.cpp` file in LLVM as alibrary) so I chose to preserve this refactoring
to allow it to be easily done in the future.
It looks like section names in objects generated by `link.exe` are limited to at
most 8 characters in length, so shorten `.note.rustc` to just `.rustc`
The compiler will require that `llvm-ar.exe` be available for MSVC-targeting
builds (more comments on this soon), so this commit adds support for targets to
depend on LLVM tools. The `core` library for MSVC depends on `llvm-ar.exe` which
will be copied into place for the target before the compiler starts to run.
Note that these targets all depend on `llvm-config.exe` to ensure that they're
built before they're attempted to be copied.
This commit updates the rustllvm.mk file with the necessary flags and such to
build rustllvm.lib with cl.exe instead of gcc. Some comments can be found in the
commit itself.
It looks like compiler-rt has a cmake build sytem inside its source, but I have
been unable to figure out how to use it and actually build the right library.
For now this commit hard-wires MSVC-targeting builds of libcompiler-rt to
continue using `make` as the primary bulid system, but some frobbing of the
flags are necessary to ensure that the right compiler is used.
Currently the MSVC compilers don't have any cross prefixes and we're only able
to make an MSVC compiler with a cross compile, so just avoid this logic on msvc
for now.
We have a number of support C/C++ files in Rust that we link into the standard
library and other various locations, and these all need to be built with cl.exe
instead of gcc.exe when targeting MSVC. This commit adds helper macros for this
functionality to use different sets of programs/flags/invocations on MSVC than
on GNU-like platforms.
This commit modifies the makefiles to enable building LLVM with cmake and Visual
Studio to generate an LLVM that targets MSVC. Rust's configure script requires
cmake to be installed when targeting MSVC and will configure LLVM with cmake
instead of the normal `./configure` script LLVM provides. The build will then
run cmake to execute the build instead of the normal `make`.
Currently `make clean-llvm` isn't supported on MSVC as I can't figure out how to
run a "clean" target for the Visual Studio files.
This commit starts to add MSVC support to the ./configure script to enable the
build system to detect and build an MSVC target with the cl.exe compiler and
toolchain. The primary change here is a large sanity check when an MSVC target
is requested (and currently only `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc` is recognized).
When building an MSVC target, the configure script either requires the
`--msvc-root` argument or for `cl.exe` to be in `PATH`. It also requires that if
in the path `cl.exe` is the 64-bit version of the compiler.
Once detected the configure script will run the `vcvarsall.bat` script provided
by Visual Studio to learn about the `INCLUDE` and `LIB` variables needed by the
`cl.exe` compiler to run (the default include/lib paths for the
compiler/linker). These variables are then reexported when running `make` to
ensure that our own compiles are running the same toolchain.
The purpose of this detection and environment variable scraping is to avoid
requiring the build itself to be run inside of a `cmd.exe` shell but rather
allow it to run in the currently expected MinGW/MSYS shell.
We use a script called `mklldeps.py` to run `llvm-config` to generate a list
of LLVM libraries and native dependencies needed by LLVM, but all cross-compiled
LLVM builds were using the *host triple's* `llvm-config` instead of the
*target's* `llvm-config`. This commit alters this to require the right
`llvmdeps.rs` to be generated which will run the correct `llvm-config`.
Previously libmorestack.a and libcompiler-rt.a were installed, but link.exe
looks for morestack.lib and compiler-rt.lib by default, so we need to install
these with the correct name
* Detect the #define _MSC_VER in addition to __WIN32__
* Don't include valgrind.h for windows
* Remove unused `rust_valgrind_stack_{un,}register` functions
* Add stub definition for `rust_running_on_valgrind` for windows
* Conditionally define `rust_dbg_extern_empty_struct` as empty structures are
not allowed by cl.exe apparently.
This trait will be used to correctly build a command line for link.exe with MSVC
and may perhaps one day be used to generate a command line for `lld`, but this
commit currently just refactors the bindings used to call `ld`.
core::slice was originally written to tolerate overflow (notably, with
slices of zero-sized elements), but it was never updated to use wrapping
arithmetic when overflow traps were added.
Also correctly handle the case of calling .nth() on an Iter with a
zero-sized element type. The iterator was assuming that the pointer
value of the returned reference was meaningful, but that's not true for
zero-sized elements.
Fixes#25016.
It is currently broken to use syntax such as `<T as Foo>::U::static_method()` where `<T as Foo>::U` is an associated type. I was able to fix this and simplify the parser a bit at the same time.
This also fixes the corresponding issue with associated types (#22139), but that's somewhat irrelevant because #22519 is still open, so this syntax still causes an error in type checking.
Similarly, although this fix applies to associated consts, #25046 forbids associated constants from using type parameters or `Self`, while #19559 means that associated types have to always have one of those two. Therefore, I think that you can't use an associated const from an associated type anyway.
The loop to load all the known impls from external crates seems to have been used because `ty::populate_implementations_for_trait_if_necessary` wasn't doing its job, and solely relying on it resulted in loading only impls in the same crate as the trait.
Coherence for `librustc` was reduced from 18.310s to 0.610s, from stage1 to stage2.
Interestingly, type checking also went from 46.232s to 42.003s, though that could be noise or unrelated improvements.
On a smaller scale, `fn main() {}` now spends 0.003s in coherence instead of 0.368s, which fixes#22068.
It also peaks at only 1.2MB, instead of 16MB of heap usage.
A few errors slipped through my filter. Markdown formatting is especially important now that http://doc.rust-lang.org/error-index.html is live!
Speaking of, the error index should probably be linked to from somewhere. It doesn't quite fit under any of the sections in the index, but I could create a new one for it? Or add it under "tools" despite it not exactly being an executable tool.
The functions BitSet::{iter,union,symmetric_difference} each had docs that claimed u32s were output when their actual output each end up being usizes.

Rustdoc fixes for associated items
This is related to isssue #22442 and solves it partly.
This solves the search index links of associated types and constants,
so that they link to the trait page.
Also add an Associated Constants section if constants are present.
core::slice::Iter.ptr can be null when iterating a slice of zero-sized
elements, but the pointer value used for the slice itself cannot. Handle
this case by always returning a dummy pointer for slices of zero-sized
elements.
