This branch adds support for running LLVM optimization and codegen on different parts of a crate in parallel. Instead of translating the crate into a single LLVM compilation unit, `rustc` now distributes items in the crate among several compilation units, and spawns worker threads to optimize and codegen each compilation unit independently. This improves compile times on multicore machines, at the cost of worse performance in the compiled code. The intent is to speed up build times during development without sacrificing too much optimization.
On the machine I tested this on, `librustc` build time with `-O` went from 265 seconds (master branch, single-threaded) to 115s (this branch, with 4 threads), a speedup of 2.3x. For comparison, the build time without `-O` was 90s (single-threaded). Bootstrapping `rustc` using 4 threads gets a 1.6x speedup over the default settings (870s vs. 1380s), and building `librustc` with the resulting stage2 compiler takes 1.3x as long as the master branch (44s vs. 55s, single threaded, ignoring time spent in LLVM codegen).
The user-visible changes from this branch are two new codegen flags:
* `-C codegen-units=N`: Distribute items across `N` compilation units.
* `-C codegen-threads=N`: Spawn `N` worker threads for running optimization and codegen. (It is possible to set `codegen-threads` larger than `codegen-units`, but this is not very useful.)
Internal changes to the compiler are described in detail on the individual commit messages.
Note: The first commit on this branch is copied from #16359, which this branch depends on.

Sometimes (e.g. on Rust CI) the "expand description" text of the
collapse toggle was displayed by default, when a page is first
loaded (even though the description is expanded), because some
Content-Security-Policy settings disable inline CSS.
Setting it the style with the `.css` method allows the output to be used
in more places.
This has the primary advantage of not interfering with browser default
behavior for links like being able to cmd/ctrl+click on a result to open
the result in a new tab but leave the current page as-is (previous
behavior both opened a new tab and changed the current tab's location to
the result's)
This unifies the `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints
into one lint, `non_snake_case`. It also now checks for non-snake-case modules.
This also extends the non-camel-case types lint to check type parameters, and
merges the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` lint into the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint.
Because the `uppercase_variables` lint is now part of the `non_snake_case`
lint, all non-snake-case variables that start with lowercase characters (such
as `fooBar`) will now trigger the `non_snake_case` lint.
New code should be updated to use the new `non_snake_case` lint instead of the
previous `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints. All use of
the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` should be replaced with the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint. Any code that previously contained non-snake-case
module or variable names should be updated to use snake case names or disable
the `non_snake_case` lint. Any code with non-camel-case type parameters should
be changed to use camel case or disable the `non_camel_case_types` lint.

However, a few methods have been deprecated, either due to lack of use or redundancy:

1. The internal layout for traits has changed from (vtable, data) to (data, vtable). If you were relying on this in unsafe transmutes, you might get some very weird and apparently unrelated errors. You should not be doing this! Prefer not to do this at all, but if you must, you should use raw::TraitObject rather than hardcoding rustc's internal representation into your code.
2. The minimal type of reference-to-vec-literals (e.g., `&[1, 2, 3]`) is now a fixed size vec (e.g., `&[int, ..3]`) where it used to be an unsized vec (e.g., `&[int]`). If you want the unszied type, you must explicitly give the type (e.g., `let x: &[_] = &[1, 2, 3]`). Note in particular where multiple blocks must have the same type (e.g., if and else clauses, vec elements), the compiler will not coerce to the unsized type without a hint. E.g., `[&[1], &[1, 2]]` used to be a valid expression of type '[&[int]]'. It no longer type checks since the first element now has type `&[int, ..1]` and the second has type &[int, ..2]` which are incompatible.
3. The type of blocks (including functions) must be coercible to the expected type (used to be a subtype). Mostly this makes things more flexible and not less (in particular, in the case of coercing function bodies to the return type). However, in some rare cases, this is less flexible. TBH, I'm not exactly sure of the exact effects. I think the change causes us to resolve inferred type variables slightly earlier which might make us slightly more restrictive. Possibly it only affects blocks with unreachable code. E.g., `if ... { fail!(); "Hello" }` used to type check, it no longer does. The fix is to add a semicolon after the string.
These `where` clauses are accepted everywhere generics are currently
accepted and desugar during type collection to the type parameter bounds
we have today.
A new keyword, `where`, has been added. Therefore, this is a breaking
change. Change uses of `where` to other identifiers.

The `type_overflow` lint, doesn't catch the overflow for `i64` because
the overflow happens earlier in the parse phase when the `u64` as biggest
possible int gets casted to `i64` , without checking the for overflows.
We can't lint in the parse phase, so a refactoring of the `LitInt` type
was necessary.
The types `LitInt`, `LitUint` and `LitIntUnsuffixed` where merged to one
type `LitInt` which stores it's value as `u64`. An additional parameter was
added which indicate the signedness of the type and the sign of the value.

This is something that's been bothering me, and I've seen some people mention in IRC before. The docs are *great* if you want a full in-depth look at an API, but *awful* if you want to scan them. This provides the ability to toggle complexity freely. Interacts perfectly well with noscript, since the static page is effectively unchanged. Collapsing is just hiding divs with css.
I'm not much of a designer, so design input welcome on the actual UX for toggling.

This enables the docs search function to be more forgiving for spelling mistakes. The algorithm works as a dynamic programming algorithm to detect the minimum number of changes required to the search parameter string in order to match any string in the search index. If the number of changes is less then a threshold (currently defined as 3), then the search parameter will be included as it is a possible misspelling of the word. Any results returned by the algorithm are sorted by distance and are ranked lower than results that are partial or exact matches (aka the matches returned by the original search algorithm). Additionally, the increment in the for loops in this file were using one of three different ways to increment (`i += 1` `i++` and `++i`) so I just standardized it to `++i`.
As an example, consider searching for the word `String` and accidentally typing in `Strnig`. The old system would return no results because it is a misspelling, but the Levenshtein distance between these two inputs is only two, which means that this will return `String` as a result. Additionally, it will return a few other results such as `strong`, and `StdRng` because these are also similar to `Strnig`. Because of the ranking system though, this change should be unobtrusive to anyone that spells the words correctly, as those are still ranked first before any Levenshtein results.

the CFG for match statements.
There were two bugs in issue #14684. One was simply that the borrow
check didn't know about the correct CFG for match statements: the
pattern must be a predecessor of the guard. This disallows the bad
behavior if there are bindings in the pattern. But it isn't enough to
prevent the memory safety problem, because of wildcards; thus, this
patch introduces a more restrictive rule, which disallows assignments
and mutable borrows inside guards outright.
I discussed this with Niko and we decided this was the best plan of
action.
This breaks code that performs mutable borrows in pattern guards. Most
commonly, the code looks like this:
impl Foo {
fn f(&mut self, ...) {}
fn g(&mut self, ...) {
match bar {
Baz if self.f(...) => { ... }
_ => { ... }
}
}
}
Change this code to not use a guard. For example:
impl Foo {
fn f(&mut self, ...) {}
fn g(&mut self, ...) {
match bar {
Baz => {
if self.f(...) {
...
} else {
...
}
}
_ => { ... }

Sometimes this can result in code duplication, but often it illustrates
a hidden memory safety problem.

In f1ad425199, I changed the handling
of macros, to prevent macro invocations from occurring in fully expanded
source. Instead, I added a side table. It contained only the
spans of the macros, because this was the only information required
in order to make macro export work.
However, librustdoc was also affected by this change, since it
extracts macro information in a similar way. As a result of the earlier
change, exported macros were no longer documented.
In order to repair this, I've adjusted the side table to contain whole
items, rather than just the spans.
This makes two changes to region inference: (1) it allows region
inference to relate early-bound regions; and (2) it allows regions to be
related before variance runs. The former is needed because there is no
relation between the two regions before region substitution happens,
while the latter is needed because type collection has to run before
variance. We assume that, before variance is inferred, that lifetimes
are invariant. This is a conservative overapproximation.
This relates to #13885. This does not remove `~self` from the language
yet, however.

This implements the minimal scaffolding that allows mapping diagnostic messages to alpha-numeric codes, which could improve the searchability of errors. In addition, there's a new compiler option, `--explain {code}` which takes an error code and prints out a somewhat detailed explanation of the error. Example:

match x {
Some(true) | Some(false) => (),
None => (),
Some(true) => ()

I've refrained from migrating many errors to actually use the new macros as it can be done in an incremental fashion but if we're happy with the approach, it'd be good to do all of them sooner rather than later.
Originally, I was going to make libdiagnostics a separate crate but that's posing some interesting challenges with semi-circular dependencies. In particular, librustc would have a plugin-phase dependency on libdiagnostics, which itself depends on librustc. Per my conversation with @alexcrichton, it seems like the snapshotting process would also have to change. So for now the relevant modules from libdiagnostics are included using `#[path = ...] mod`.
This commit changes the `io::process::Command` API to provide
fine-grained control over the environment:
* The `env` method now inserts/updates a key/value pair.
* The `env_remove` method removes a key from the environment.
* The old `env` method, which sets the entire environment in one shot,
is renamed to `env_set_all`. It can be used in conjunction with the
finer-grained methods. This renaming is a breaking change.
To support these new methods, the internal `env` representation for
`Command` has been changed to an optional `HashMap` holding owned
`CString`s (to support non-utf8 data). The `HashMap` is only
materialized if the environment is updated. The implementation does not
try hard to avoid allocation, since the cost of launching a process will
dwarf any allocation cost.
This patch also adds `PartialOrd`, `Eq`, and `Hash` implementations for
`CString`.

Now, the lexer will categorize every byte in its input according to the
grammar. The parser skips over these while parsing, thus avoiding their
presence in the input to syntax extensions.
This removes a bunch of token types. Tokens now store the original, unaltered
numeric literal (that is still checked for correctness), which is parsed into
an actual number later, as needed, when creating the AST.
This can change how syntax extensions work, but otherwise poses no visible

formerly, the self identifier was being discarded during parsing, which

This updates https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/15075.
Rename `ToStr::to_str` to `ToString::to_string`. The naive renaming ends up with two `to_string` functions defined on strings in the prelude (the other defined via `collections::str::StrAllocating`). To remedy this I removed `StrAllocating::to_string`, making all conversions from `&str` to `String` go through `Show`. This has a measurable impact on the speed of this conversion, but the sense I get from others is that it's best to go ahead and unify `to_string` and address performance for all `to_string` conversions in `core::fmt`. `String::from_str(...)` still works as a manual fast-path.
Note that the patch was done with a script, and ended up renaming a number of other `*_to_str` functions, particularly inside of rustc. All the ones I saw looked correct, and I didn't notice any additional API breakage.

This basically meant changing the interface so that no borrowed `&Vec`
is exposed, by hiding `fn get_vec` and `fn get_mut_vec` and revising
`fn all_vecs`.
Instead, clients should use one of the other methods; `get_slice`,
`pop`, `truncate`, `replace`, `push_all`, or `is_empty_in`, which
should work for any case currently used in rustc.
Rationale: for what appear to be historical reasons only, the PatIdent contains
a Path rather than an Ident. This means that there are many places in the code
where an ident is artificially promoted to a path, and---much more problematically---
a bunch of elements from a path are simply thrown away, which seems like an invitation
to some really nasty bugs.
This commit replaces the Path in a PatIdent with a SpannedIdent, which just contains an ident
and a span.
This commit hooks rustdoc into the stability index infrastructure in two
ways:
1. It looks up stability levels via the index, rather than by manual
attributes.
2. It adds stability level information throughout rustdoc output, rather
than just at the top header. In particular, a stability color (with
mouseover text) appears next to essentially every item that appears
in rustdoc's HTML output.
Along the way, the stability index code has been lightly refactored.

* **Deprecated `Encoder::str_encode`**
### Other changes:

* Renamed the `wr` field of the `Encoder` and `PrettyEncoder` structs to `writer`
* Replaced some `from_utf8` by `from_utf8_owned` to avoid unnecessary allocations
* Removed unnecessary `unsafe` code
* Added `encode` and `decode` shortcut functions
* Implemented `FromStr` for `Json`
* Implemented `ToJson` for tuples of arity up to 12
* Fixed some details in the documentation
### Questions
* ~~The `encode` shortcut function does the same as the `Encoder::str_encode` function. It seems wrong to me that two functions do exactly the same. Should we deprecate `Encoder::str_encode`?~~
* ~~Do we really want the ToJson trait for tuples? At the moment we have it for (), (A, B), (A, B, C). I would like to remove them.~~
* ~~We are using `String` as key in the `TreeMap` representing a `Json` object. It would be better to use `&str`, but this would require to annotate lots of lifetimes. Is there any easy solution for this?~~
* There is a lot of duplicated code (`PrettyEncoder` copies about 50 lines from `Encoder`). In an OO language this could be solved very elegantly by using inheritance and overriding. What can we do here to reduce the amount of boilerplate?

This deprecates `.to_utf16`. `x.to_utf16()` should be replaced by either
`x.utf16_units().collect::<Vec<u16>>()` (the type annotation may be optional), or
just `x.utf16_units()` directly, if it can be used in an iterator context.

This makes the `in-header`, `markdown-before-content`, and `markdown-after-content` options available to `rustdoc` when generating documentation for any crate.
Before, these options were only available when creating documentation *from* markdown. Now, they are available when generating documentation from source.
This also updates the `rustdoc -h` output to reflect these changes. It does not update the `man rustdoc` page, nor does it update the documentation in [the `rustdoc` manual](http://doc.rust-lang.org/rustdoc.html).

This will break code that looks like:
let mut x = 0;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);
Change that code to:
let mut x = 0i;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);

This change registers new snapshots, allowing `*T` to be removed from the language. This is a large breaking change, and it is recommended that if compiler errors are seen that any FFI calls are audited to determine whether they should be actually taking `*mut T`.
This can break code that looked like:
impl Foo for Box<Any> {
fn f(&self) { ... }
}
let x: Box<Any + Send> = ...;
x.f();
Change such code to:
impl Foo for Box<Any> {
fn f(&self) { ... }
}
let x: Box<Any> = ...;
x.f();
That is, upcast before calling methods.
This is a conservative solution to #5781. A more proper treatment (see
the xfail'd `trait-contravariant-self.rs`) would take variance into
account. This change fixes the soundness hole.
Some library changes had to be made to make this work. In particular,
`Box<Any>` is no longer showable, and only `Box<Any+Send>` is showable.
Eventually, this restriction can be lifted; for now, it does not prove
too onerous, because `Any` is only used for propagating the result of
task failure.
This patch also adds a test for the variance inference work in #12828,
which accidentally landed as part of DST.
Closes#5781.

The f128 type has very little support in the compiler and the feature is
basically unusable today. Supporting half-baked features in the compiler can be
detrimental to the long-term development of the compiler, and hence this feature
is being removed.

We're going to have more modules under lint, and the paths get unwieldy. We
also plan to have lints run at multiple points in the compilation pipeline.
```test_harness
#[test]
fn foo() {}
```
will now compile and run the tests, rather than just ignoring & stripping them (i.e. it is as if `--test` was passed).
Also, the specific example in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/12242 was fixed (but that issue is broader than that example).
Updated search bar to match help text.
Used correct, normalized hotkeys in search.
Updated shortcut menu with working shortcuts (tabs).
Changed height of search help.
This adds the `test_harness` directive that runs a code block using the
test runner, to allow for `#[test]` items to be demonstrated and still
tested (currently they are just stripped and not even compiled, let
alone run).
This creates a stability baseline for all crates that we distribute that are not `std`. In general, all library code must start as experimental and progress in stages to become stable.
Replace its usage with byte string literals, except in `bytes!()` tests.
Also add a new snapshot, to be able to use the new b"foo" syntax.
The src/etc/2014-06-rewrite-bytes-macros.py script automatically
rewrites `bytes!()` invocations into byte string literals.
Pass it filenames as arguments to generate a diff that you can inspect,
or `--apply` followed by filenames to apply the changes in place.
Diffs can be piped into `tip` or `pygmentize -l diff` for coloring.
This removes all remnants of `@` pointers from rustc. Additionally, this removes
the `GC` structure from the prelude as it seems odd exporting an experimental
type in the prelude by default.

There was feedback gathered by @bjz which request for larger click targets in the rustdoc sidebar. Here's my attempt at that.
My only concern with this patch is the removal of `<br>` between sidebar links. This may break formatting for text-only viewers of this documentation. If there is a large enough demographic of people that will be affected, perhaps we can try switching the structure of each sidebar block sidebar to an `<ol>` with each item as a `<li>`.
* Change links to display:block for click larger targets
* Remove linebreaks due to extra space
* Adjust margins so that element spacing stays the same
* Sidebar item hover background colour chosen from `<pre>` styling
This obsoletes the old `to_err_msg` method. Replace
println!("Error: {}", failure.to_err_msg())
let string = failure.to_err_msg();
with
println!("Error: {}", failure)
let string = failure.to_str();

only known post-monomorphization, and report `transmute` errors before
the code is generated for that `transmute`.
This can break code that looked like:
unsafe fn f<T>(x: T) {
let y: int = transmute(x);
}
Change such code to take a type parameter that has the same size as the
type being transmuted to.

After a snapshot, the old syntax will be removed.
This can break some code that looked like `foo as &Trait:Send`. Now you

This involves numerous substeps:
1. Treat Self same as any other parameter.
2. No longer compute offsets for method parameters.
3. Store all generic types (both trait/impl and method) with a method,
eliminating odd discrepancies.
4. Stop doing unspeakable things to static methods and instead just use
the natural types, now that we can easily add the type parameters from
trait into the method's polytype.
5. No doubt some more. It was hard to separate these into distinct commits.
Fixes#13564
* The select/plural methods from format strings are removed
* The # character no longer needs to be escaped
* The \-based escapes have been removed

This commit is the final step in the libstd facade, #13851. The purpose of this
commit is to move libsync underneath the standard library, behind the facade.
This will allow core primitives like channels, queues, and atomics to all live
in the same location.
There were a few notable changes and a few breaking changes as part of this
movement:
* The `Vec` and `String` types are reexported at the top level of libcollections
* The `unreachable!()` macro was copied to libcore
* The `std::rt::thread` module was moved to librustrt, but it is still
reexported at the same location.
* The `std::comm` module was moved to libsync
* The `sync::comm` module was moved under `sync::comm`, and renamed to `duplex`.
It is now a private module with types/functions being reexported under
`sync::comm`. This is a breaking change for any existing users of duplex
streams.
* All concurrent queues/deques were moved directly under libsync. They are also
all marked with #![experimental] for now if they are public.
* The `task_pool` and `future` modules no longer live in libsync, but rather
live under `std::sync`. They will forever live at this location, but they may
move to libsync if the `std::task` module moves as well.

This uncovered some dead code, most notably in middle/liveness.rs, which I think suggests there must be something fishy with that part of the code.
The #[allow(dead_code)] annotations on some of the fields I am not super happy about but as I understand, marker type may disappear at some point.
Both of these items are surfaced as a DefTy, so some extra logic was needed in
the decoder module to figure out whether one is actually an enum or whether it's
a typedef.
Closes#14757
These functions are all much better expressed via RAII using the to_utf16()
method on strings. This refactoring also takes this opportunity to properly
handle when filenames aren't valid unicode when passed through to the windows
I/O layer by properly returning I/O errors.
All previous users of the `as_utf16_p` or `as_utf16_mut_p` functions will need
to convert their code to using `foo.to_utf16().append_one(0)` to get a
null-terminated utf16 string.

This grows a new option inside of rustdoc to add the ability to submit examples
to an external website. If the `--markdown-playground-url` command line option
or crate doc attribute `html_playground_url` is present, then examples will have
a button on hover to submit the code to the playground specified.
This commit enables submission of example code to play.rust-lang.org. The code
submitted is that which is tested by rustdoc, not necessarily the exact code
shown in the example.

This commit carries out the request from issue #14678:
> The method `Iterator::len()` is surprising, as all the other uses of

> `Iterator::count(|T| -> bool) -> unit` method. That method, however, is
> a bit redundant, and can be easily replaced with
> `iter.filter(|x| x < 5).count()`.
> After this change, we could then define the `len()` method
> on `iter::ExactSize`.

Now that rustdoc understands proper language tags
as the code not being Rust, we can tag everything
properly.
This change tags examples in other languages by
their language. Plain notations are marked as `text`.
Console examples are marked as `console`.
Also fix markdown.rs to not highlight non-rust code.
This changes the parsing of the language string
in code examples so that unrecognized examples
are not considered Rust code. This was, for example,
the case when a code example was marked `sh` for shell
code.
This relieves authors of having to mark those samples
as `notrust`.
Also adds recognition of the positive marker `rust`.
By default, unmarked examples are still considered rust.
If any rust-specific tags are seen, code is considered
rust unless marked as "notrust".
Adds test cases for the detection logic.
This completes the last stage of the renaming of the comparison hierarchy of
traits. This change renames TotalEq to Eq and TotalOrd to Ord.
In the future the new Eq/Ord will be filled out with their appropriate methods,
but for now this change is purely a renaming change.

Cross crate links can target items which are not rendered in the documentation.
If the item is reexported at a higher level, the destination of the link (a
concatenation of the fully qualified name) may actually lead to nowhere. This
fixes this problem by altering rustdoc to emit pages which redirect to the local
copy of the reexported structure.

There is currently no way to query all impls for a type from an external crate,
and with primitive types in play this is also quite difficult. Instead of
filtering, just suck in all impls from upstream crates into the local AST, and
have them get stripped later.
This will allow population of all implementations of traits for primitive types,
as well as filling in some corner cases with inlining documentation in other
cases.
This commit adds support in rustdoc to recognize the `#[doc(primitive = "foo")]`
attribute. This attribute indicates that the current module is the "owner" of
the primitive type `foo`. For rustdoc, this means that the doc-comment for the
module is the doc-comment for the primitive type, plus a signal to all
downstream crates that hyperlinks for primitive types will be directed at the
crate containing the `#[doc]` directive.
Additionally, rustdoc will favor crates closest to the one being documented
which "implements the primitive type". For example, documentation of libcore
links to libcore for primitive types, but documentation for libstd and beyond
all links to libstd for primitive types.
This change involves no compiler modifications, it is purely a rustdoc change.
The landing pages for the primitive types primarily serve to show a list of
implemented traits for the primitive type itself.
The primitive types documented includes both strings and slices in a semi-ad-hoc
way, but in a way that should provide at least somewhat meaningful
documentation.
Closes#14474
When inlining documentation across crates, primitive implementors of traits were
not shown. This commit tweaks the infrastructure to treat primitive and
Path-like impls the same way, displaying all implementors everywhere.

Instead of one giant function, this breaks it up into several smaller functions
which have explicit dependencies among one another.
There are no code changes as a result of this commit.
This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more
details. All code using Eq/Ord will temporarily need to move to Partial{Eq,Ord}
or the Total{Eq,Ord} traits. The Total traits will soon be renamed to {Eq,Ord}.
