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.
Mostly just low-haning fruit, i.e. function arguments that were @ even
though & would work just as well.
Reduces librustc.so size by 200k when compiling without -O, by 100k when
compiling with -O.
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.
This fixes part of #3730, but not all.
Also changes the TyDesc struct to be equivalent with the generated
code, with the hope that the above issue may one day be closed for good,
i.e. that the TyDesc type can completely be specified in the Rust
sources and not be generated.
I removed the `static-method-test.rs` test because it was heavily based
on `BaseIter` and there are plenty of other more complex uses of static
methods anyway.
This makes the handling of atomic operations more generic, which
does impose a specific naming convention for the intrinsics, but
that seems ok with me, rather than having an individual case for
each name.
It also adds the intrinsics to the the intrinsics file.
By using "void" instead of "{}" as the LLVM type for nil, we can avoid
the alloca/store/load sequence for the return value, resulting in less
and simpler IR code.
This reduces compile times by about 10%.
Remove all the explicit @mut-fields from CrateContext, though many
fields are still @-ptrs.
This required changing every single function call that explicitly
took a @CrateContext, so I took advantage and changed as many as I
could get away with to &-ptrs or &mut ptrs.
This almost removes the StringRef wrapper, since all strings are
Equiv-alent now. Removes a lot of `/* bad */ copy *`'s, and converts
several things to be &'static str (the lint table and the intrinsics
table).
There are many instances of .to_managed(), unfortunately.
Fix a laundry list of warnings involving unused imports that glutted
up compilation output. There are more, but there seems to be some
false positives (where 'remedy' appears to break the build), but this
particular set of fixes seems safe.

fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.
The default versions (atomic_load and atomic_store) are sequentially consistent.
The atomic_load_acq intrinsic acquires as described in [1].
The atomic_store_rel intrinsic releases as described in [1].
