Sorry this is so huge, but it's been accumulating for about a month. There's lots of stuff here, mostly oriented toward enabling multithreaded scheduling and improving compatibility between the old and new runtimes. Adds task pinning so that we can create the 'platform thread' in servo.
[Here](e1555f9b56/src/libstd/rt/mod.rs (L201)) is the current runtime setup code.
About half of this has already been reviewed.
The free-standing functions in f32, f64, i8, i16, i32, i64, u8, u16,
u32, u64, float, int, and uint are replaced with generic functions in
num instead.
This means that instead of having to know everywhere what the type is, like
~~~
f64::sin(x)
~~~
You can simply write code that uses the type-generic versions in num instead, this works for all types that implement the corresponding trait in num.
~~~
num::sin(x)
~~~
Note 1: If you were previously using any of those functions, just replace them
with the corresponding function with the same name in num.
Note 2: If you were using a function that corresponds to an operator, use the
operator instead.
Note 3: This is just https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/7090 reopened against master.
Basically, one may just do:
MemoryMap::new(16, ~[
MapExecutable,
MapReadable,
MapWritable
])
And executable+readable+writable chunk of at least 16 bytes size will be
allocated and freed with the result of `MemoryMap::new`.
Correct treatment of irrefutable patterns. The old code was wrong in many, many ways. `ref` bindings didn't work, it sometimes copied when it should have moved, the borrow checker didn't even look at such patterns at all, we weren't consistent about preventing values with destructors from being pulled apart, etc.

Regression testing is already done by isrustfastyet.
In particular, it is not valid to go around passing uninitialized or zero'd
memory as arguments. Rust should generally be free to assume that the arguments
it gets are valid input values, but the output of intrinsics::uninit() and
intrinsics::init() are not (e.g., an @T is just null, leading to an error
if we should try to increment the ref count).

This is work continued from the now landed #7495 and #7521 pulls.
Removing the headers from unique vectors is another project, so I've separated the allocator.
It's broken/unmaintained and needs to be rewritten to avoid managed
pointers and needless copies. A full rewrite is necessary and the API
will need to be redone so it's not worth keeping this around (#7628).
Closes#2236, #2744
Implement methods `.pop_opt() -> Option<T>` and `.shift_opt() -> Option<T>` to allow retrieval of front/back of a vec in one operation without fail. .pop() and .shift() are changed to reuse the former two methods.
Follows the naming of the previous method .head_opt()
Change the signature of Iterator.size_hint() to always have a lower bound.
Implement .size_hint() on all remaining iterators (if it differs from the default).

They simply byte-swap an integer to a specific endian, like the hton* functions in C.
These intrinsics are synthesized, so maybe they should be in another file. But since they are just a single line of code each, based on the bswap intrinsics and aren't really intended for public consumption I thought they would fit in the intrinsics file.
The next step working on this could be to expose a trait / generic function for byteswapping.
Since ' ' is by far one of the most common characters, it is worthwhile
to put it first, and short-circuit the rest of the function.

Add a function to safely retrieve the first element of a ~[T], as
Option<T>. Implement shift() using shift_opt().
Add tests for both .shift() and .shift_opt()
Add a function to safely retrieve the last element of a ~[T], as
Option<T>. Implement pop() using pop_opt(); it benches the same as the
old implementation when tested with optimization level 2.
Adds a lint for `static some_lowercase_name: uint = 1;`. Warning by default since it causes confusion, e.g. `static a: uint = 1; ... let a = 2;` => `error: only refutable patterns allowed here`.
I think it's WIP - but I wanted to ask for feedback (/cc @thestinger)
I had to move the impl of FromIter for vec into extra::iter because I don't think std can depend on extra, but that's a bit messed up. Similarly some FromIter uses are gone now, not sure if this is fixable or if I made a complete mess here..
Continuation of #7430.
I haven't removed the `map` method, since the replacement `v.iter().transform(f).collect::<~[SomeType]>()` is a little ridiculous at the moment.
With these changes, exchange allocator headers are never initialized, read or written to. Removing the header will now just involve updating the code in trans using an offset to only do it if the type contained is managed.
The only thing blocking removing the initialization of the last field in the header was ~fn since it uses it to store the dynamic size/types due to captures. I temporarily switched it to a `closure_exchange_alloc` lang item (it uses the same `exchange_free`) and #7496 is filed about removing that.
Since the `exchange_free` call is now inlined all over the codebase, I don't think we should have an assert for null. It doesn't currently ever happen, but it would be fine if we started generating code that did do it. The `exchange_free` function also had a comment declaring that it must not fail, but a regular assert would cause a failure. I also removed the atomic counter because valgrind can already find these leaks, and we have valgrind bots now.
Note that exchange free does not currently print an error an out-of-memory when it aborts, because our `io` code may allocate. We could probably get away with a `#[rust_stack]` call to a `stdio` function but it would be better to make a write system call.
* stop using an atomic counter, this has a significant cost and
valgrind will already catch these leaks
* remove the extra layer of function calls
* remove the assert of non-null in free, freeing null is well defined
but throwing a failure from free will not be
* stop initializing the `prev`/`next` pointers
* abort on out-of-memory, failing won't necessarily work
I almost got locked out of my machine because I misunderstood the purpose of the function and called it with a limit of uint::max_value, which turned this function into an almost endless loop.
Instead of determining paths from the path tag, we iterate through
modules' children recursively in the metadata. This will allow for
lazy external module resolution.
`max_by` method returns the element that gives the maximum value from the specfied function.
`max_by`/`min_by` are convenient when you want to get the value which has greatest/smallest scores.
Inspired by [ruby's Enumerable module](http://ruby-doc.org/core-2.0/Enumerable.html).
Add method .move_from() to MutableVector, which consumes another vector
and moves elements into the receiver.
Add new trait MutableCloneableVector with one method .copy_from(), which
clones elements from another vector into the receiver.
flat_map_ produces an iterator that maps each element to an iterator,
and yields the elements of the produced iterators.
This is the monadic bind :: M a -> (a -> M b) -> M b for iterators.
Named just like the vec method, but with a trailing underline until the
method resolution bug is resolved.
We discussed the name chain_map, but I decided to go with flat_map_ for consistency with vec.
Since it.map(f).flatten() would be the same as it.flat_map(f), we could choose
to just implement a flatten method instead. Either way the possibilities are the same but flat_map is more convenient.
Reopening of #7031, Closes#6963
I imagine though that this will bounce in bors once or twice... Because attributes can't be cfg(stage0)'d off, there's temporarily a lot of new stage0/stage1+ code.
This adds a `#[no_drop_flag]` attribute. This attribute tells the compiler to omit the drop flag from the struct, if it has a destructor. When the destructor is run, instead of setting the drop flag, it instead zeroes-out the struct. This means the destructor can run multiple times and therefore it is up to the developer to use it safely.
The primary usage case for this is smart-pointer types like `Rc<T>` as the extra flag caused the struct to be 1 word larger because of alignment.
This closes#7271 and #7138
This sets the `get_tydesc()` return type correctly and removes the intrinsic module. See #3730, #3475.
Update: this now also removes the unused shape fields in tydescs.
