Stop using CRATE_DEF_INDEX outside of metadata encoding.
`CRATE_DEF_ID` and `CrateNum::as_def_id` are almost always what we want. We should not manipulate raw `DefIndex` outside of metadata encoding.
errors: lazily load fallback fluent bundle
Addresses (hopefully) https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95667#issuecomment-1094794087.
Loading the fallback bundle in compilation sessions that won't go on to emit any errors unnecessarily degrades compile time performance, so lazily create the Fluent bundle when it is first required.

To fix https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/69488 and by extension fix https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/94371, we should stop treating types like `MaybeUninit<usize>` as something that the `Scalar` type in the interpreter engine can represent. So we add a new field to `abi::Primitive` that records whether the primitive is nested in a union

This commit updates the signatures of all diagnostic functions to accept
types that can be converted into a `DiagnosticMessage`. This enables
existing diagnostic calls to continue to work as before and Fluent
identifiers to be provided. The `SessionDiagnostic` derive just
generates normal diagnostic calls, so these APIs had to be modified to
accept Fluent identifiers.
In addition, loading of the "fallback" Fluent bundle, which contains the
built-in English messages, has been implemented.
Each diagnostic now has "arguments" which correspond to variables in the
Fluent messages (necessary to render a Fluent message) but no API for
adding arguments has been added yet. Therefore, diagnostics (that do not
require interpolation) can be converted to use Fluent identifiers and
will be output as before.
Introduce a `DiagnosticMessage` type that will enable diagnostic
messages to be simple strings or Fluent identifiers.
`DiagnosticMessage` is now used in the implementation of the standard
`DiagnosticBuilder` APIs.

make memcmp return a value of c_int_width instead of i32
This is an attempt to fix#32610 and #78022, namely, that `memcmp` always returns an `i32` regardless of the platform. I'm running into some issues and was hoping I could get some help.
Here's what I've been attempting so far:
1. Build the stage0 compiler with all the changes _expect_ for the changes in `library/core/src/slice/cmp.rs` and `compiler/rustc_codegen_llvm/src/context.rs`; this is because `target_c_int_width` isn't passed through and recognized as a valid config option yet. I'm building with `./x.py build --stage 0 library/core library/proc_macro compiler/rustc`
2. Next I add in the `#[cfg(c_int_width = ...)]` params to `cmp.rs` and `context.rs` and build the stage 1 compiler by running `./x.py build --keep-stage 0 --stage 1 library/core library/proc_macro compiler/rustc`. This step now runs successfully.
3. Lastly, I try to build the test program for AVR mentioned in #78022 with `RUSTFLAGS="--emit llvm-ir" cargo build --release`, and look at the resulting llvm IR, which still shows:
```
...
%11 = call addrspace(1) i32 `@memcmp(i8*` nonnull %5, i8* nonnull %10, i16 5) #7, !dbg !1191 %.not = icmp eq i32 %11, 0, !dbg !1191
...
; Function Attrs: nounwind optsize declare i32 `@memcmp(i8*,` i8*, i16) local_unnamed_addr addrspace(1) #4
```
Any ideas what I'm missing here? Alternately, if this is totally the wrong approach I'm open to other suggestions.

Spellchecking compiler comments
This PR cleans up the rest of the spelling mistakes in the compiler comments. This PR does not change any literal or code spelling issues.
Strict Provenance MVP
This patch series examines the question: how bad would it be if we adopted
an extremely strict pointer provenance model that completely banished all
int<->ptr casts.
The key insight to making this approach even *vaguely* pallatable is the
ptr.with_addr(addr) -> ptr
function, which takes a pointer and an address and creates a new pointer
with that address and the provenance of the input pointer. In this way
the "chain of custody" is completely and dynamically restored, making the
model suitable even for dynamic checkers like CHERI and Miri.
This is not a formal model, but lots of the docs discussing the model
have been updated to try to the *concept* of this design in the hopes
that it can be iterated on.

Remove `Session::one_time_diagnostic`
This is untracked mutable state, which modified the behaviour of queries.
It was used for 2 things: some full-blown errors, but mostly for lint declaration notes ("the lint level is defined here" notes).
It is replaced by the diagnostic deduplication infra which already exists in the diagnostic emitter.
A new diagnostic level `OnceNote` is introduced specifically for lint notes, to deduplicate subdiagnostics.
As a drive-by, diagnostic emission takes a `&mut` to allow dropping the `SubDiagnostic`s.
Fold aarch64 feature +fp into +neon
Arm's FEAT_FP and Feat_AdvSIMD describe the same thing on AArch64:
The Neon unit, which handles both floating point and SIMD instructions.
Moreover, a configuration for AArch64 must include both or neither.
Arm says "entirely proprietary" toolchains may omit floating point:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/102374/0101/Data-processing---floating-point
In the Programmer's Guide for Armv8-A, Arm says AArch64 can have
both FP and Neon or neither in custom implementations:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0024/a/AArch64-Floating-point-and-NEON
In "Bare metal boot code for Armv8-A", enabling Neon and FP
is just disabling the same trap flag:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/dai0527/a
In an unlikely future where "Neon and FP" become unrelated,
we can add "[+-]fp" as its own feature flag.
Until then, we can simplify programming with Rust on AArch64 by
folding both into "[+-]neon", which is valid as it supersets both.
"[+-]neon" is retained for niche uses such as firmware, kernels,
"I just hate floats", and so on.
I am... pretty sure no one is relying on this.
An argument could be made that, as we are not an "entirely proprietary" toolchain, we should not support AArch64 without floats at all. I think that's a bit excessive. However, I want to recognize the intent: programming for AArch64 should be simplified where possible. For x86-64, programmers regularly set up illegal feature configurations because it's hard to understand them, see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/89586. And per the above notes, plus the discussion in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/86941, there should be no real use cases for leaving these features split: the two should in fact always go together.

Stabilize ADX target feature
This is a continuation of #60109, which noted that while the ADX intrinsics were stabilized, the corresponding target feature never was.
This PR follows the same general structure and stabilizes the ADX target feature.
See also https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44839 - tracking issue for target feature
There are a few places were we have to construct it, though, and a few
places that are more invasive to change. To do this, we create a
constructor with a long obvious name.
These features include:
- V for vector extension
- Zfinx, Zdinx, Zhinx and Zhinxmin float in integer register extensions
- Zfh, Zfhmin 16-bit float pointer extensions
- Zbkb, Zkbc, Zbkc, Zk* cryptography extensions

debuginfo: Fix bug in type name generation for dyn types with associated types but no other generic arguments.
For types like `&dyn Future<Output=bool>` the compiler currently emits invalid types names in debuginfo. This PR fixes this.
Before:
```txt
// DWARF
&dyn core::future::future::Future, Output=bool>
// CodeView
ref$<dyn$<core::future::future::Future,assoc$<Output,bool> > > >
```
After:
```txt
// DWARF
&dyn core::future::future::Future<Output=bool>
// CodeView
ref$<dyn$<core::future::future::Future<assoc$<Output,bool> > > >
```
These syntactically incorrect type names can cause downstream tools (e.g. debugger extensions) crash when trying to parse them.

debuginfo: Refactor debuginfo generation for types
This PR implements the refactoring of the `rustc_codegen_llvm::debuginfo::metadata` module as described in MCP https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/482.
In particular it
- changes names to use `di_node` instead of `metadata`
- uniformly names all functions that build new debuginfo nodes `build_xyz_di_node`
- renames `CrateDebugContext` to `CodegenUnitDebugContext` (which is more accurate)
- removes outdated parts from `compiler/rustc_codegen_llvm/src/debuginfo/doc.md`
- moves `TypeMap` and functions that work directly work with it to a new `type_map` module
- moves enum related builder functions to a new `enums` module
- splits enum debuginfo building for the native and cpp-like cases, since they are mostly separate
- uses `SmallVec` instead of `Vec` in many places
- removes the old infrastructure for dealing with recursion cycles (`create_and_register_recursive_type_forward_declaration()`, `RecursiveTypeDescription`, `set_members_of_composite_type()`, `MemberDescription`, `MemberDescriptionFactory`, `prepare_xyz_metadata()`, etc)
- adds `type_map::build_type_with_children()` as a replacement for dealing with recursion cycles
- adds many (doc-)comments explaining what's going on
- changes cpp-like naming for C-Style enums so they don't get a `enum$<...>` name (because the NatVis visualizer does not apply to them)
- fixes detection of what is a C-style enum because some enums where classified as C-style even though they have fields
- changes cpp-like naming for generator enums so that NatVis works for them
- changes the position of discriminant debuginfo node so it is consistently nested inside the top-level union instead of, sometimes, next to it
The following could be done in subsequent PRs:
- add caching for `closure_saved_names_of_captured_variables`
- add caching for `generator_layout_and_saved_local_names`
- fix inconsistent handling of what is considered a C-style enum wrt to debuginfo
- rename `metadata` module to `types`
- move common generator fields to front instead of appending them
This PR is based on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/93644 which is not merged yet.

This commit makes `AdtDef` use `Interned`. Much the commit is tedious
changes to introduce getter functions. The interesting changes are in
`compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/adt.rs`.
`Layout` is another type that is sometimes interned, sometimes not, and
we always use references to refer to it so we can't take any advantage
of the uniqueness properties for hashing or equality checks.
This commit renames `Layout` as `LayoutS`, and then introduces a new
`Layout` that is a newtype around an `Interned<LayoutS>`. It also
interns more layouts than before. Previously layouts within layouts
(via the `variants` field) were never interned, but now they are. Hence
the lifetime on the new `Layout` type.
Unlike other interned types, these ones are in `rustc_target` instead of
`rustc_middle`. This reflects the existing structure of the code, which
does layout-specific stuff in `rustc_target` while `TyAndLayout` is
generic over the `Ty`, allowing the type-specific stuff to occur in
`rustc_middle`.
The commit also adds a `HashStable` impl for `Interned`, which was
needed. It hashes the contents, unlike the `Hash` impl which hashes the
pointer.
Currently some `Allocation`s are interned, some are not, and it's very
hard to tell at a use point which is which.
This commit introduces `ConstAllocation` for the known-interned ones,
which makes the division much clearer. `ConstAllocation::inner()` is
used to get the underlying `Allocation`.
In some places it's natural to use an `Allocation`, in some it's natural
to use a `ConstAllocation`, and in some places there's no clear choice.
I've tried to make things look as nice as possible, while generally
favouring `ConstAllocation`, which is the type that embodies more
information. This does require quite a few calls to `inner()`.
The commit also tweaks how `PartialOrd` works for `Interned`. The
previous code was too clever by half, building on `T: Ord` to make the
code shorter. That caused problems with deriving `PartialOrd` and `Ord`
for `ConstAllocation`, so I changed it to build on `T: PartialOrd`,
which is slightly more verbose but much more standard and avoided the
problems.

Improve allowness of the unexpected_cfgs lint
This pull-request improve the allowness (`#[allow(...)]`) of the `unexpected_cfgs` lint.
Before this PR only crate level `#![allow(unexpected_cfgs)]` worked, now with this PR it also work when put around `cfg!` or if it is in a upper level. Making it work ~for the attributes `cfg`, `cfg_attr`, ...~ for the same level is awkward as the current code is design to give "Some parent node that is close to this macro call" (cf. https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_expand/base/struct.ExpansionData.html) meaning that allow on the same line as an attribute won't work.

Direct users towards using Rust target feature names in CLI
This PR consists of a couple of changes on how we handle target features.
In particular there is a bug-fix wherein we avoid passing through features that aren't prefixed by `+` or `-` to LLVM. These appear to be causing LLVM to assert, which is pretty poor a behaviour (and also makes it pretty clear we expect feature names to be prefixed).
The other commit, I anticipate to be somewhat more controversial is outputting a warning when users specify a LLVM-specific, or otherwise unknown, feature name on the CLI. In those situations we request users to either replace it with a known Rust feature name (e.g. `bmi` -> `bmi1`) or file a feature request. I've a couple motivations for this: first of all, if users are specifying these features on the command line, I'm pretty confident there is also a need for these features to be usable via `#[cfg(target_feature)]` machinery. And second, we're growing a fair number of backends recently and having ability to provide some sort of unified-ish interface in this place seems pretty useful to me.

If they are trying to use features rustc doesn't yet know about,
request a feature request.
Additionally, also warn against using feature names without leading `+`
or `-` signs.
rustc_errors: let `DiagnosticBuilder::emit` return a "guarantee of emission".
That is, `DiagnosticBuilder` is now generic over the return type of `.emit()`, so we'll now have:
* `DiagnosticBuilder<ErrorReported>` for error (incl. fatal/bug) diagnostics
* can only be created via a `const L: Level`-generic constructor, that limits allowed variants via a `where` clause, so not even `rustc_errors` can accidentally bypass this limitation
* asserts `diagnostic.is_error()` on emission, just in case the construction restriction was bypassed (e.g. by replacing the whole `Diagnostic` inside `DiagnosticBuilder`)
* `.emit()` returns `ErrorReported`, as a "proof" token that `.emit()` was called
(though note that this isn't a real guarantee until after completing the work on
#69426)
* `DiagnosticBuilder<()>` for everything else (warnings, notes, etc.)
* can also be obtained from other `DiagnosticBuilder`s by calling `.forget_guarantee()`
This PR is a companion to other ongoing work, namely:
* #69426
and it's ongoing implementation:
#93222
the API changes in this PR are needed to get statically-checked "only errors produce `ErrorReported` from `.emit()`", but doesn't itself provide any really strong guarantees without those other `ErrorReported` changes
* #93244
would make the choices of API changes (esp. naming) in this PR fit better overall
In order to be able to let `.emit()` return anything trustable, several changes had to be made:
* `Diagnostic`'s `level` field is now private to `rustc_errors`, to disallow arbitrary "downgrade"s from "some kind of error" to "warning" (or anything else that doesn't cause compilation to fail)
* it's still possible to replace the whole `Diagnostic` inside the `DiagnosticBuilder`, sadly, that's harder to fix, but it's unlikely enough that we can paper over it with asserts on `.emit()`
* `.cancel()` now consumes `DiagnosticBuilder`, preventing `.emit()` calls on a cancelled diagnostic
* it's also now done internally, through `DiagnosticBuilder`-private state, instead of having a `Level::Cancelled` variant that can be read (or worse, written) by the user
* this removes a hazard of calling `.cancel()` on an error then continuing to attach details to it, and even expect to be able to `.emit()` it
* warnings were switched to *only* `can_emit_warnings` on emission (instead of pre-cancelling early)
* `struct_dummy` was removed (as it relied on a pre-`Cancelled` `Diagnostic`)
* since `.emit()` doesn't consume the `DiagnosticBuilder` <sub>(I tried and gave up, it's much more work than this PR)</sub>,
we have to make `.emit()` idempotent wrt the guarantees it returns
* thankfully, `err.emit(); err.emit();` can return `ErrorReported` both times, as the second `.emit()` call has no side-effects *only* because the first one did do the appropriate emission
* `&mut Diagnostic` is now used in a lot of function signatures, which used to take `&mut DiagnosticBuilder` (in the interest of not having to make those functions generic)
* the APIs were already mostly identical, allowing for low-effort porting to this new setup
* only some of the suggestion methods needed some rework, to have the extra `DiagnosticBuilder` functionality on the `Diagnostic` methods themselves (that change is also present in #93259)
* `.emit()`/`.cancel()` aren't available, but IMO calling them from an "error decorator/annotator" function isn't a good practice, and can lead to strange behavior (from the caller's perspective)
* `.downgrade_to_delayed_bug()` was added, letting you convert any `.is_error()` diagnostic into a `delay_span_bug` one (which works because in both cases the guarantees available are the same)
This PR should ideally be reviewed commit-by-commit, since there is a lot of fallout in each.

Partially move cg_ssa towards using a single builder
Not all codegen backends can handle hopping between blocks well. For example Cranelift requires blocks to be terminated before switching to building a new block. Rust-gpu requires a `RefCell` to allow hopping between blocks and cg_gcc currently has a buggy implementation of hopping between blocks. This PR reduces the amount of cases where cg_ssa switches between blocks before they are finished and mostly fixes the block hopping in cg_gcc. (~~only `scalar_to_backend` doesn't handle it correctly yet in cg_gcc~~ fixed that one.)

Guard against unwinding in cleanup code
Currently the only safe guard we have against double unwind is the panic count (which is local to Rust). When double unwinds indeed happen (e.g. C++ exception + Rust panic, or two C++ exceptions), then the second unwind actually goes through and the first unwind is leaked. This can cause UB. cc rust-lang/project-ffi-unwind#6
E.g. given the following C++ code:
```c++
extern "C" void foo() {
throw "A";
}
extern "C" void execute(void (*fn)()) {
try {
fn();
} catch(...) {
}
}
```
This program is well-defined to terminate:
```c++
struct dtor {
~dtor() noexcept(false) {
foo();
}
};
void a() {
dtor a;
dtor b;
}
int main() {
execute(a);
return 0;
}
```
But this Rust code doesn't catch the double unwind:
```rust
extern "C-unwind" {
fn foo();
fn execute(f: unsafe extern "C-unwind" fn());
}
struct Dtor;
impl Drop for Dtor {
fn drop(&mut self) {
unsafe { foo(); }
}
}
extern "C-unwind" fn a() {
let _a = Dtor;
let _b = Dtor;
}
fn main() {
unsafe { execute(a) };
}
```
To address this issue, this PR adds an unwind edge to an abort block, so that the Rust example aborts. This is similar to how clang guards against double unwind (except clang calls terminate per C++ spec and we abort).
The cost should be very small; it's an additional trap instruction (well, two for now, since we use TrapUnreachable, but that's a different issue) for each function with landing pads; if LLVM gains support to encode "abort/terminate" info directly in LSDA like GCC does, then it'll be free. It's an additional basic block though so compile time may be worse, so I'd like a perf run.

`@rustbot` label: F-c_unwind
Specifically, rename the `Const` struct as `ConstS` and re-introduce `Const` as
this:
```
pub struct Const<'tcx>(&'tcx Interned<ConstS>);
```
This now matches `Ty` and `Predicate` more closely, including using
pointer-based `eq` and `hash`.
Notable changes:
- `mk_const` now takes a `ConstS`.
- `Const` was copy, despite being 48 bytes. Now `ConstS` is not, so need a
we need separate arena for it, because we can't use the `Dropless` one any
more.
- Many `&'tcx Const<'tcx>`/`&Const<'tcx>` to `Const<'tcx>` changes
- Many `ct.ty` to `ct.ty()` and `ct.val` to `ct.val()` changes.
- Lots of tedious sigil fiddling.
Specifically, change `Ty` from this:
```
pub type Ty<'tcx> = &'tcx TyS<'tcx>;
```
to this
```
pub struct Ty<'tcx>(Interned<'tcx, TyS<'tcx>>);
```
There are two benefits to this.
- It's now a first class type, so we can define methods on it. This
means we can move a lot of methods away from `TyS`, leaving `TyS` as a
barely-used type, which is appropriate given that it's not meant to
be used directly.
- The uniqueness requirement is now explicit, via the `Interned` type.
E.g. the pointer-based `Eq` and `Hash` comes from `Interned`, rather
than via `TyS`, which wasn't obvious at all.
Much of this commit is boring churn. The interesting changes are in

- compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/mod.rs
Specifically:
- Most mentions of `TyS` are removed. It's very much a dumb struct now;
`Ty` has all the smarts.
- `TyS` now has `crate` visibility instead of `pub`.
- `TyS::make_for_test` is removed in favour of the static `BOOL_TY`,
which just works better with the new structure.
- The `Eq`/`Ord`/`Hash` impls are removed from `TyS`. `Interned`s impls
of `Eq`/`Hash` now suffice. `Ord` is now partly on `Interned`
(pointer-based, for the `Equal` case) and partly on `TyS`
(contents-based, for the other cases).
- There are many tedious sigil adjustments, i.e. adding or removing `*`
or `&`. They seem to be unavoidable.
Split `pauth` target feature
Per discussion on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/86941 we'd like to split `pauth` into `paca` and `pacg` in order to better support possible future environments that only have the keys available for address or generic authentication. At the moment LLVM has the one `pauth` target_feature while Linux presents separate `paca` and `pacg` flags for feature detection.
Because the use of [target_feature](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2045-target-feature.html) will "allow the compiler to generate code under the assumption that this code will only be reached in hosts that support the feature", it does not make sense to simply translate `paca` into the LLVM feature `pauth`, as it will generate code as if `pacg` is available.
To accommodate this we error if only one of the two features is present. If LLVM splits them in the future we can remove this restriction without making a breaking change.

Ensure that queries only return Copy types.
This should pervent the perf footgun of returning a result with an expensive `Clone` impl (like a `Vec` of a hash map).
I went for the stupid solution of allocating on an arena everything that was not `Copy`. Some query results could be made Copy easily, but I did not really investigate.
debuginfo: Fix DW_AT_containing_type vtable debuginfo regression
This PR brings back the `DW_AT_containing_type` attribute for vtables after it has accidentally been removed in #89597.
It also implements a more accurate description of vtables. Instead of describing them as an array of void pointers, the compiler will now emit a struct type description with a field for each entry of the vtable.

Stabilize `-Z instrument-coverage` as `-C instrument-coverage`
(Tracking issue for `instrument-coverage`: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/79121)
This PR stabilizes support for instrumentation-based code coverage, previously provided via the `-Z instrument-coverage` option. (Continue supporting `-Z instrument-coverage` for compatibility for now, but show a deprecation warning for it.)
Many, many people have tested this support, and there are numerous reports of it working as expected.
Move the documentation from the unstable book to stable rustc documentation. Update uses and documentation to use the `-C` option.
Addressing questions raised in the tracking issue:
> If/when stabilized, will the compiler flag be updated to -C instrument-coverage? (If so, the -Z variant could also be supported for some time, to ease migrations for existing users and scripts.)
This stabilization PR updates the option to `-C` and keeps the `-Z` variant to ease migration.
> The Rust coverage implementation depends on (and automatically turns on) -Z symbol-mangling-version=v0. Will stabilizing this feature depend on stabilizing v0 symbol-mangling first? If so, what is the current status and timeline?
This stabilization PR depends on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/90128 , which stabilizes `-C symbol-mangling-version=v0` (but does not change the default symbol-mangling-version).
> The Rust coverage implementation implements the latest version of LLVM's Coverage Mapping Format (version 4), which forces a dependency on LLVM 11 or later. A compiler error is generated if attempting to compile with coverage, and using an older version of LLVM.
Given that LLVM 13 has now been released, requiring LLVM 11 for coverage support seems like a reasonable requirement. If people don't have at least LLVM 11, nothing else breaks; they just can't use coverage support. Given that coverage support currently requires a nightly compiler and LLVM 11 or newer, allowing it on a stable compiler built with LLVM 11 or newer seems like an improvement.
The [tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/79121) and the [issue label A-code-coverage](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/A-code-coverage) link to a few open issues related to `instrument-coverage`, but none of them seem like showstoppers. All of them seem like improvements and refinements we can make after stabilization.
The original `-Z instrument-coverage` support went through a compiler-team MCP at https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/278 . Based on that, `@pnkfelix` suggested that this needed a stabilization PR and a compiler-team FCP.
debuginfo: Make sure that type names for closure and generator environments are unique in debuginfo.
Before this change, closure/generator environments coming from different instantiations of the same generic function were all assigned the same name even though they were distinct types with potentially different data layout. Now we append the generic arguments of the originating function to the type name.
This commit also emits `{closure_env#0}` as the name of these types in order to disambiguate them from the accompanying closure function (which keeps being called `{closure#0}`). Previously both were assigned the same name.
NOTE: Changing debuginfo names like this can break pretty printers and other debugger plugins. I think it's OK in this particular case because the names we are changing were ambiguous anyway. In general though it would be great to have a process for doing changes like these.

Add `intrinsics::const_deallocate`
Tracking issue: #79597
Related: #91884
This allows deallocation of a memory allocated by `intrinsics::const_allocate`. At the moment, this can be only used to reduce memory usage, but in the future this may be useful to detect memory leaks (If an allocated memory remains after evaluation, raise an error...?).
Print a helpful message if unwinding aborts when it reaches a nounwind function
This is implemented by routing `TerminatorKind::Abort` back through the panic handler, but with a special flag in the `PanicInfo` which indicates that the panic handler should *not* attempt to unwind the stack and should instead abort immediately.
This is useful for the planned change in https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/97 which would make `Drop` impls `nounwind` by default.

Remove LLVMRustMarkAllFunctionsNounwind
This was originally introduced in #10916 as a way to remove all landing

since rustc properly marks all functions and call-sites as nounwind

In fact this is incorrect in the presence of `extern "C-unwind"` which

foreign exceptions are caught and properly turned into aborts.

Generate more precise generator names
Currently all generators are named with a `generator$N` suffix, regardless of where they come from. This means an `async fn` shows up as a generator in stack traces, which can be surprising to async programmers since they should not need to know that async functions are implementated using generators.
This change generators a different name depending on the generator kind, allowing us to tell whether the generator is the result of an async block, an async closure, an async fn, or a plain generator.

Make rlib metadata strip works with MIPSr6 architecture
Because MIPSr6 has many differences with previous MIPSr2 arch, the previous rlib metadata stripping code in `rustc_codegen_ssa` is only for MIPSr2/r3/r5 (which share the same elf e_flags).
This commit fixed this problem. It makes `rustc_codegen_ssa` happy when compiling rustc for MIPSr6 target or hosts.
e_flags REF: e356027016/llvm/include/llvm/BinaryFormat/ELF.h (L562)
The field is also renamed from `ident` to `name. In most cases,
we don't actually need the `Span`. A new `ident` method is added
to `VariantDef` and `FieldDef`, which constructs the full `Ident`
using `tcx.def_ident_span()`. This method is used in the cases
where we actually need an `Ident`.
This makes incremental compilation properly track changes
to the `Span`, without all of the invalidations caused by storing
a `Span` directly via an `Ident`.
Consolidate checking for msvc when generating debuginfo

`thorin` is a Rust implementation of a DWARF packaging utility that
supports reading DWARF objects from archive files (i.e. rlibs) and
therefore is better suited for integration into rustc.
Signed-off-by: David Wood <david.wood@huawei.com>
In #79570, `-Z split-dwarf-kind={none,single,split}` was replaced by `-C
split-debuginfo={off,packed,unpacked}`. `-C split-debuginfo`'s packed
and unpacked aren't exact parallels to single and split, respectively.
On Unix, `-C split-debuginfo=packed` will put debuginfo into object
files and package debuginfo into a DWARF package file (`.dwp`) and
`-C split-debuginfo=unpacked` will put debuginfo into dwarf object files
and won't package it.
In the initial implementation of Split DWARF, split mode wrote sections
which did not require relocation into a DWARF object (`.dwo`) file which
was ignored by the linker and then packaged those DWARF objects into
DWARF packages (`.dwp`). In single mode, sections which did not require
relocation were written into object files but ignored by the linker and
were not packaged. However, both split and single modes could be
packaged or not, the primary difference in behaviour was where the
debuginfo sections that did not require link-time relocation were
written (in a DWARF object or the object file).
This commit re-introduces a `-Z split-dwarf-kind` flag, which can be
used to pick between split and single modes when `-C split-debuginfo` is
used to enable Split DWARF (either packed or unpacked).

Allow loading LLVM plugins with both legacy and new pass manager
Opening a draft PR to get feedback and start discussion on this feature. There is already a codegen option `passes` which allow giving a list of LLVM pass names, however we currently can't use a LLVM pass plugin (as described here : https://llvm.org/docs/WritingAnLLVMPass.html), the only available passes are the LLVM built-in ones.
The proposed modification would be to add another codegen option `pass-plugins`, which can be set with a list of paths to shared library files. These libraries are loaded using the LLVM function `PassPlugin::Load`, which calls the expected symbol `lvmGetPassPluginInfo`, and register the pipeline parsing and optimization callbacks.
An example usage with a single plugin and 3 passes would look like this in the `.cargo/config`:
```toml
rustflags = [
"-C", "pass-plugins=/tmp/libLLVMPassPlugin",
"-C", "passes=pass1 pass2 pass3",
]
```
This would give the same functionality as the opt LLVM tool directly integrated in rust build system.
Additionally, we can also not specify the `passes` option, and use a plugin which inserts passes in the optimization pipeline, as one could do using clang.
The `AggregateKind` enum ends up in the final mir `Body`. Currently,
any changes to `AdtDef` (regardless of how significant they are)
will legitimately cause the overall result of `optimized_mir` to change,
invalidating any codegen re-use involving that mir.
This will get worse once we start hashing the `Span` inside `FieldDef`
(which is itself contained in `AdtDef`).
To try to reduce these kinds of invalidations, this commit changes
`AggregateKind::Adt` to store just the `DefId`, instead of the full
`AdtDef`. This allows the result of `optimized_mir` to be unchanged
if the `AdtDef` changes in a way that doesn't actually affect any
of the MIR we build.

Remove `in_band_lifetimes` from `rustc_codegen_ssa`
See #91867 for more information.
In `compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/coverageinfo/map.rs`, there are several functions with an explicit `'a` lifetime but only a single `&'a self` parameter. These lifetimes should be redundant given lifetime elision, unless the existential `impl Iterator` has weird issues regarding that. Should the redundant lifetimes be removed?
The resulting profile will include the crate name and will be stored in
the `--out-dir` directory.
This implementation makes it convenient to use LLVM time trace together
with cargo, in the contrast to the previous implementation which would
overwrite profiles or store them in `.cargo/registry/..`.

Use object crate for .rustc metadata generation
We already use the object crate for generating uncompressed .rmeta
metadata object files. This switches the generation of compressed
.rustc object files to use the object crate as well. These have
slightly different requirements in that .rmeta should be completely
excluded from any final compilation artifacts, while .rustc should
be part of shared objects, but not loaded into memory.
The primary motivation for this change is #90326: In LLVM 14, the
current way of setting section flags (and in particular, preventing
the setting of SHF_ALLOC) will no longer work. There are other ways
we could work around this, but switching to the object crate seems
like the most elegant, as we already use it for .rmeta, and as it
makes this independent of the codegen backend. In particular, we
don't need separate handling in codegen_llvm and codegen_gcc.
codegen_cranelift should be able to reuse the implementation as
well, though I have omitted that here, as it is not based on
codegen_ssa.
This change mostly extracts the existing code for .rmeta handling
to allow using it for .rustc as well, and adjusts the codegen
infrastructure to handle the metadata object file separately: We
no longer create a backend-specific module for it, and directly
produce the compiled module instead.
This does not `fix` #90326 by itself yet, as .llvmbc will need to be
handled separately.
