Unique pointers and vectors currently contain a reference counting
header when containing a managed pointer.
This `{ ref_count, type_desc, prev, next }` header is not necessary and
not a sensible foundation for tracing. It adds needless complexity to
library code and is responsible for breakage in places where the branch
has been left out.
The `borrow_offset` field can now be removed from `TyDesc` along with
the associated handling in the compiler.
Closes#9510Closes#11533
The `print!` and `println!` macros are now the preferred method of printing, and so there is no reason to export the `stdio` functions in the prelude. The functions have also been replaced by their macro counterparts in the tutorial and other documentation so that newcomers don't get confused about what they should be using.
That is, if you have an enum type that is subject to the nullable
pointer optimization, but the null variant has a nonzero number of
fields, and you declare a static whose value is of that variant, then
that used to be an ICE but this change fixes it.
This trait seems to stray too far from the mandate of a standard library as implementations may vary between use cases. Third party libraries should implement their own if they need something like it.
This closes#5316.

This is just an unnecessary trait that no one's ever going to parameterize over
and it's more useful to just define the methods directly on the types
themselves. The implementors of this type almost always don't want
inner_mut_ref() but they're forced to define it as well.
So, like I mentioned in issue #10955 it doesn't seem like we need to call ```ty::subst_tps``` when the method is generic. But then I realized that this function doesn't mutate any of its input, and the return value is unused. Plus the type param substitution seems to be taken care of in ```trans_fn_ref_with_vtables```, so I thought I'd just try to remove it. As far as I can tell everything works.

This will allow capturing of common things like logging messages, stdout prints
(using stdio println), and failure messages (printed to stderr). Any new prints
added to libstd should be funneled through these task handles to allow capture
as well.
Additionally, this commit redirects logging back through a `Logger` trait so the
log level can be usefully consumed by an arbitrary logger.
This commit also introduces methods to set the task-local stdout handles:
* std::io::stdio::set_stdout
* std::io::stdio::set_stderr
* std::io::logging::set_logger
These methods all return the previous logger just in case it needs to be used
for inspection.
I plan on using this infrastructure for extra::test soon, but we don't quite
have the primitives that I'd like to use for it, so it doesn't migrate
extra::test at this time.
Closes#6369

There was a scheduling race where a child may not increment the global task
count before the parent exits, and the parent would then think that there are no
more tasks left.

This reverts commit f1b5f59287.
Using a private function of a library is a bad idea: several people (on
Linux) were meeting with linking errors because of it (different/older
versions of glibc).
This removes the feature where newtype structs can be dereferenced like pointers, and likewise where certain enums can be dereferenced (which I imagine nobody realized still existed). This ad-hoc behavior is to be replaced by a more general overloadable dereference trait in the future.
I've been nursing this patch for two months and think it's about rebased up to master.
@nikomatsakis this makes a bunch of your type checking code noticeably uglier.
If there is a lot of data in thread-local storage some implementations
of pthreads (e.g. glibc) fail if you don't request a stack large enough
-- by adjusting for the minimum size we guarantee that our stacks are
always large enough. Issue #6233.

The comments have more information as to why this is done, but the basic idea is
that finding an exported trait is actually a fairly difficult problem. The true
answer lies in whether a trait is ever referenced from another exported method,
and right now this kind of analysis doesn't exist, so the conservative answer of
"yes" is always returned to answer whether a trait is exported.

The old `rtio-processes` run-pass test is now moved into libstd's `io::process` module, and all process and TCP tests are now run with `iotest!` (both a native and a green version are tested).
All TCP networking on windows is provided by `ws2_32` which is apparently very similar to unix networking (hurray!).
Move the tests into libstd, use the `iotest!` macro to test both native and uv
bindings, and use the cloexec trick to figure out when the child process fails
in exec.
* vec::raw::to_ptr is gone
* Pausible => Pausable
* Removing @
* Calling the main task "<main>"
* Removing unused imports
* Removing unused mut
* Bringing some libextra tests up to date
* Allowing compiletest to work at stage0
* Fixing the bootstrap-from-c rmake tests
* assert => rtassert in a few cases
* printing to stderr instead of stdout in fail!()
Note that this removes a number of run-pass tests which are exercising behavior
of the old runtime. This functionality no longer exists and is thoroughly tested
inside of libgreen and libnative. There isn't really the notion of "starting the
runtime" any more. The major notion now is "bootstrapping the initial task".
This uses quite a bit of unsafe code for speed and failure safety, and allocates `2*n` temporary storage.
[Performance](https://gist.github.com/huonw/5547f2478380288a28c2):
| n | new | priority_queue | quick3 |
|-------:|---------:|---------------:|---------:|
| 5 | 200 | 155 | 106 |
| 100 | 6490 | 8750 | 5810 |
| 10000 | 1300000 | 1790000 | 1060000 |
| 100000 | 16700000 | 23600000 | 12700000 |
| sorted | 520000 | 1380000 | 53900000 |
| trend | 1310000 | 1690000 | 1100000 |
(The times are in nanoseconds, having subtracted the set-up time (i.e. the `just_generate` bench target).)
I imagine that there is still significant room for improvement, particularly because both priority_queue and quick3 are doing a static call via `Ord` or `TotalOrd` for the comparisons, while this is using a (boxed) closure.
Also, this code does not `clone`, unlike `quick_sort3`; and is stable, unlike both of the others.
We decided in the 12/10/13 weekly meeting that trailing commas should be
accepted pretty much anywhere. They are currently not allowed in struct

very small runs.
This uses a lot of unsafe code for speed, otherwise we would be having
to sort by sorting lists of indices and then do a pile of swaps to put
everything in the correct place.
Fixes#9819.
Now that the metadata is an owned value with a lifetime of a borrowed byte
slice, it's possible to have future optimizations where the metadata doesn't
need to be copied around (very expensive operation).

This pull request completely rewrites std::comm and all associated users. Some major bullet points
* Everything now works natively
* oneshots have been removed
* shared ports have been removed
* try_recv no longer blocks (recv_opt blocks)
* constructors are now Chan::new and SharedChan::new
* failure is propagated on send
* stream channels are 3x faster
I have acquired the following measurements on this patch. I compared against Go, but remember that Go's channels are fundamentally different than ours in that sends are by-default blocking. This means that it's not really a totally fair comparison, but it's good to see ballpark numbers for anyway
```
oneshot stream shared1
std 2.111 3.073 1.730
my 6.639 1.037 1.238
native 5.748 1.017 1.250
go8 1.774 3.575 2.948
go8-inf slow 0.837 1.376
go8-128 4.832 1.430 1.504
go1 1.528 1.439 1.251
go2 1.753 3.845 3.166
```
I had three benchmarks:
* oneshot - N times, create a "oneshot channel", send on it, then receive on it (no task spawning)
* stream - N times, send from one task to another task, wait for both to complete
* shared1 - create N threads, each of which sends M times, and a port receives N*M times.
The rows are as follows:
* `std` - the current libstd implementation (before this pull request)
* `my` - this pull request's implementation (in M:N mode)
* `native` - this pull request's implementation (in 1:1 mode)
* `goN` - go's implementation with GOMAXPROCS=N. The only relevant value is 8 (I had 8 cores on this machine)
* `goN-X` - go's implementation where the channels in question were created with buffers of size `X` to behave more similarly to rust's channels.
The problem was that std::run::Process::new() was unwrap()ing the result
of std::io::process::Process::new(), which returns None in the case
where the io_error condition is raised to signal failure to start the
process.
Have std::run::Process::new() similarly return an Option<run::Process>
to reflect the fact that a subprocess might have failed to start. Update
utility functions run::process_status() and run::process_output() to
return Option<ProcessExit> and Option<ProcessOutput>, respectively.
Various parts of librustc and librustpkg needed to be updated to reflect
these API changes.

do something like Foo { x: ref mut x }. You can now just do
Foo { ref mut x }.

This replaces the link meta attributes with a pkgid attribute and uses a hash
of this as the crate hash. This makes the crate hash computable by things
other than the Rust compiler. It also switches the hash function ot SHA1 since
that is much more likely to be available in shell, Python, etc than SipHash.
