We can now mark arguments and returns as `nonnull` in LLVM. It's still somewhat limited by the fact that LLVM loses this information after inlining but it might help in certain cases.
It can be easy to accidentally bloat the size of an enum by making one variant
larger than the others. When this happens, it usually goes unnoticed. This
commit adds a lint that can warn when the largest variant in an enum is more
than 3 times larger than the second-largest variant. This requires a little
bit of rejiggering, because size information is only available in trans, but
lint levels are only available in the lint context.
It is allow by default because it's pretty noisy, and isn't really *that*
undesirable.
Closes#10362
The span on a inner doc-comment would point to the next token, e.g. the span for the `a` line points to the `b` line, and the span of `b` points to the `fn`.
```rust
//! a
//! b
fn bar() {}
```
The #[phase(syntax,link)] attribute on `extern crate std` needs to be an
outer attribute so it can pretty-print properly.
Also add `#![no_std]` and `#[feature(phase)]` so compiling the
pretty-printed source will work.

Consider PatEnums constructed with A(..) to be candidates for tuple
struct patterns, not just ones constructed with A(a,b,c). If these
patterns shouldn't be valid tuple struct patterns (as they're equivalent
to _), this needs to be caught before we get to trans.
Fixes#14308.
This commit is part of the ongoing libstd facade efforts (cc #13851). The
compiler now recognizes some language items as "extern { fn foo(...); }" and
will automatically perform the following actions:
1. The foreign function has a pre-defined name.
2. The crate and downstream crates can only be built as rlibs until a crate
defines the lang item itself.
3. The actual lang item has a pre-defined name.
This is essentially nicer compiler support for the hokey
core-depends-on-std-failure scheme today, but it is implemented the same way.
The details are a little more hidden under the covers.
In addition to failure, this commit promotes the eh_personality and
rust_stack_exhausted functions to official lang items. The compiler can generate
calls to these functions, causing linkage errors if they are left undefined. The
checking for these items is not as precise as it could be. Crates compiling with
`-Z no-landing-pads` will not need the eh_personality lang item, and crates
compiling with no split stacks won't need the stack exhausted lang item. For
ease, however, these items are checked for presence in all final outputs of the
compiler.
It is quite easy to define dummy versions of the functions necessary:
#[lang = "stack_exhausted"]
extern fn stack_exhausted() { /* ... */ }
#[lang = "eh_personality"]
extern fn eh_personality() { /* ... */ }
cc #11922, rust_stack_exhausted is now a lang item
cc #13851, libcollections is blocked on eh_personality becoming weak
This slightly adjusts the NullablePointer representation for some enums in the case where the non-nullable variant has a single field (the ptr field) to be just that, the pointer. This is in contrast to the current behaviour where we'd wrap that single pointer in a LLVM struct.
Fixes#11040 & #11303.
Add `EntryPat` and `NodePat` variants to ast_map, so that lookups for
id 1 in `let S{val: _x /* pat 2 */} /* pat 1 */ = ...` will actually
resolve to the pattern `S{ ... }`, rather than "unknown node", in a
function like `node_id_to_str`.
The core library in theory has 0 dependencies, but in practice it has some in
order for it to be efficient. These dependencies are in the form of the basic
memory operations provided by libc traditionally, such as memset, memcmp, etc.
These functions are trivial to implement and themselves have 0 dependencies.
This commit adds a new crate, librlibc, which will serve the purpose of
providing these dependencies. The crate is never linked to by default, but is
available to be linked to by downstream consumers. Normally these functions are
provided by the system libc, but in other freestanding contexts a libc may not
be available. In these cases, librlibc will suffice for enabling execution with
libcore.
cc #10116
LLVM internally uses `uint64_t` for array size, but the corresponding
C API (`LLVMArrayType`) uses `unsigned int` so ths value is truncated.
Therefore rustc generates wrong type for fixed-sized large vector e.g.
`[0 x i8]` for `[0u8, ..(1 << 32)]`.
This patch adds `LLVMRustArrayType` function for `uint64_t` support.
The goal of this refactoring is to make the rustc driver code easier to understand and use. Since this is as close to an API as we have, I think it is important that it is nice. On getting stuck in, I found that there wasn't as much to change as I'd hoped to make the stage... functions easier to use by tools (which is a good thing :-) ).
This patch only moves code around - mostly just moving code to different files, but a few extracted method refactorings too. To summarise the changes: I added driver::config which handles everything about configuring the compiler. driver::session now just defines and builds session objects. I moved driver code from librustc/lib.rs to librustc/driver/mod.rs so all the code is one place. I extracted methods to make emulating the compiler without being the compiler a little easier. Within the driver directory, I moved code around to more logically fit in the modules.
This commit revisits the `cast` module in libcore and libstd, and scrutinizes
all functions inside of it. The result was to remove the `cast` module entirely,
folding all functionality into the `mem` module. Specifically, this is the fate
of each function in the `cast` module.
* transmute - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is now marked as
#[unstable]. This is due to planned changes to the `transmute`
function and how it can be invoked (see the #[unstable] comment).
For more information, see RFC 5 and #12898
* transmute_copy - This function was moved to `mem`, with clarification that is
is not an error to invoke it with T/U that are different
sizes, but rather that it is strongly discouraged. This
function is now #[stable]
* forget - This function was moved to `mem` and marked #[stable]
* bump_box_refcount - This function was removed due to the deprecation of
managed boxes as well as its questionable utility.
* transmute_mut - This function was previously deprecated, and removed as part
of this commit.
* transmute_mut_unsafe - This function doesn't serve much of a purpose when it
can be achieved with an `as` in safe code, so it was
removed.
* transmute_lifetime - This function was removed because it is likely a strong
indication that code is incorrect in the first place.
* transmute_mut_lifetime - This function was removed for the same reasons as
`transmute_lifetime`
* copy_lifetime - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is marked
`#[unstable]` now due to the likelihood of being removed in
the future if it is found to not be very useful.
* copy_mut_lifetime - This function was also moved to `mem`, but had the same
treatment as `copy_lifetime`.
* copy_lifetime_vec - This function was removed because it is not used today,
and its existence is not necessary with DST
(copy_lifetime will suffice).
In summary, the cast module was stripped down to these functions, and then the
functions were moved to the `mem` module.
transmute - #[unstable]
transmute_copy - #[stable]
forget - #[stable]
copy_lifetime - #[unstable]
copy_mut_lifetime - #[unstable]

ty::substs struct. This is a holdover from the olden days of yore. This patch
removes the last vestiges of that practice. This is part of the work
I was doing on #5527.
