This commit is the standard API stabilization commit for the 1.6 release cycle.
The list of issues and APIs below have all been through their cycle-long FCP and
the libs team decisions are listed below
Stabilized APIs
* `Read::read_exact`
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof` (renamed from `UnexpectedEOF`)
* libcore -- this was a bit of a nuanced stabilization, the crate itself is now
marked as `#[stable]` and the methods appearing via traits for primitives like
`char` and `str` are now also marked as stable. Note that the extension traits
themeselves are marked as unstable as they're imported via the prelude. The
`try!` macro was also moved from the standard library into libcore to have the
same interface. Otherwise the functions all have copied stability from the
standard library now.
* The `#![no_std]` attribute
* `fs::DirBuilder`
* `fs::DirBuilder::new`
* `fs::DirBuilder::recursive`
* `fs::DirBuilder::create`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt::mode`
* `vec::Drain`
* `vec::Vec::drain`

Closes#28968
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1288][rfc] which adds two new unstable
types to the `std::time` module. The `Instant` type is used to represent
measurements of a monotonically increasing clock suitable for measuring time
withing a process for operations such as benchmarks or just the elapsed time to
do something. An `Instant` favors panicking when bugs are found as the bugs are
programmer errors rather than typical errors that can be encountered.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1288
The `SystemTime` type is used to represent a system timestamp and is not
monotonic. Very few guarantees are provided about this measurement of the system
clock, but a fixed point in time (`UNIX_EPOCH`) is provided to learn about the
relative distance from this point for any particular time stamp.
This PR takes the same implementation strategy as the `time` crate on crates.io,
namely:
| Platform | Instant | SystemTime |
|------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|
| Windows | QueryPerformanceCounter | GetSystemTimeAsFileTime |
| OSX | mach_absolute_time | gettimeofday |
| Unix | CLOCK_MONOTONIC | CLOCK_REALTIME |
These implementations can perhaps be refined over time, but they currently
satisfy the requirements of the `Instant` and `SystemTime` types while also
being portable across implementations and revisions of each platform.
* Delete `sys::unix::{c, sync}` as these are now all folded into libc itself
* Update all references to use `libc` as a result.
* Update all references to the new flat namespace.
* Moves all windows bindings into sys::c
Note: for now, this change only affects `-windows-gnu` builds.
So why was this `libgcc` dylib dependency needed in the first place?
The stack unwinder needs to know about locations of unwind tables of all the modules loaded in the current process. The easiest portable way of achieving this is to have each module register itself with the unwinder when loaded into the process. All modules compiled by GCC do this by calling the __register_frame_info() in their startup code (that's `crtbegin.o` and `crtend.o`, which are automatically linked into any gcc output).
Another important piece is that there should be only one copy of the unwinder (and thus unwind tables registry) in the process. This pretty much means that the unwinder must be in a shared library (unless everything is statically linked).
Now, Rust compiler tries very hard to make sure that any given Rust crate appears in the final output just once. So if we link the unwinder statically to one of Rust's crates, everything should be fine.
Unfortunately, GCC startup objects are built under assumption that `libgcc` is the one true place for the unwind info registry, so I couldn't find any better way than to replace them. So out go `crtbegin`/`crtend`, in come `rsbegin`/`rsend`!
A side benefit of this change is that rustc is now more in control of the command line that goes to the linker, so we could stop using `gcc` as the linker driver and just invoke `ld` directly.

For most parts, rumprun currently looks like NetBSD, as they share the same
libc and drivers. However, being a unikernel, rumprun does not support
process management, signals or virtual memory, so related functions
might fail at runtime. Stack guards are disabled exactly for this reason.
Code for rumprun is always cross-compiled, it uses always static
linking and needs a custom linker.
Move the panic handling logic from the `unwind` module to `panicking`
and use a panic counter to distinguish between normal state, panics
and double panics.
This is part of some cleanup I did while investigating #28129.
This also ensures that `on_panic` is run even if the user has registered too many callbacks.
The `register` function is unstable and it is not used anymore, hence
it can be removed (together with the now-unused `Callback` type and
`static` variables).
The registration of `panicking::on_panic` as a general-purpose
callback is overcomplicated and can fail.
Instead, invoking it explicitly removes the need for locking and paves
the way for further improvements.
Unwinding across an FFI boundary is undefined behaviour, so we can mark
all external function as nounwind. The obvious exception are those
functions that actually perform the unwinding.
This commit does some refactoring to make almost all of the `std::rt` private.
Specifically, the following items are no longer part of its API:
* DEFAULT_ERROR_CODE
* backtrace
* unwind
* args
* at_exit
* cleanup
* heap (this is just alloc::heap)
* min_stack
* util
The module is now tagged as `#[doc(hidden)]` as the only purpose it's serve is
an entry point for the `panic!` macro via the `begin_unwind` and
`begin_unwind_fmt` reexports.

* Rename `Utf16Items` to `Utf16Decoder`. "Items" is meaningless.
* Generalize it to any `u16` iterator, not just `[u16].iter()`
* Make it yield `Result` instead of a custom `Utf16Item` enum that was isomorphic to `Result`. This enable using the `FromIterator for Result` impl.
* Replace `Utf16Item::to_char_lossy` with a `Utf16Decoder::lossy` iterator adaptor.
This is a [breaking change], but only for users of the unstable `rustc_unicode` crate.
I’d like this functionality to be stabilized and re-exported in `std` eventually, as the "low-level equivalent" of `String::from_utf16` and `String::from_utf16_lossy` like #27784 is the low-level equivalent of #27714.
CC @aturon, @alexcrichton
* Rename `utf16_items` to `decode_utf16`. "Items" is meaningless.
* Move it to `rustc_unicode::char`, exposed in `std::char`.
* Generalize it to any `u16` iterable, not just `&[u16]`.
* Make it yield `Result` instead of a custom `Utf16Item` enum that was isomorphic to `Result`. This enable using the `FromIterator for Result` impl.
* Add a `REPLACEMENT_CHARACTER` constant.
* Document how `result.unwrap_or(REPLACEMENT_CHARACTER)` replaces `Utf16Item::to_char_lossy`.
This commit removes all unstable and deprecated functions in the standard
library. A release was recently cut (1.3) which makes this a good time for some
spring cleaning of the deprecated functions.
Initial version of PR had an DerefMut implementation, which was later removed
because it may cause mutable reference aliasing.
Suggest how to implement mutability with reentrant mutex and remove the claim we
implement DerefMut.

This commit removes all morestack support from the compiler which entails:
* Segmented stacks are no longer emitted in codegen.
* We no longer build or distribute libmorestack.a
* The `stack_exhausted` lang item is no longer required
The only current use of the segmented stack support in LLVM is to detect stack
overflow. This is no longer really required, however, because we already have
guard pages for all threads and registered signal handlers watching for a
segfault on those pages (to print out a stack overflow message). Additionally,
major platforms (aka Windows) already don't use morestack.
This means that Rust is by default less likely to catch stack overflows because
if a function takes up more than one page of stack space it won't hit the guard
page. This is what the purpose of morestack was (to catch this case), but it's
better served with stack probes which have more cross platform support and no
runtime support necessary. Until LLVM supports this for all platform it looks
like morestack isn't really buying us much.
cc #16012 (still need stack probes)
Closes#26458 (a drive-by fix to help diagnostics on stack overflow)
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1184][rfc] which tweaks the behavior of
the `#![no_std]` attribute and adds a new `#![no_core]` attribute. The
`#![no_std]` attribute now injects `extern crate core` at the top of the crate
as well as the libcore prelude into all modules (in the same manner as the
standard library's prelude). The `#![no_core]` attribute disables both std and
core injection.
