Soon the LLVM upgrade (#34743) will require an updated CMake installation, and
the easiest way to do this was to upgrade the Ubuntu version of the bots to
16.04. This in turn brings in a new MIPS compiler on the linux-cross builder,
which is now from the "official" ubuntu repositories. Unfortunately these
new compilers don't support compiling with the `-msoft-float` flag like we're
currently passing, causing compiles to fail.
This commit removes these flags as it's not clear *why* they're being passed, as
the mipsel targets also don't have it. At least if it's not supported by a
debian default compiler, perhaps it's not too relevant to support?
Apparently the gcc on our dist bot is so old and/or obscure that the default
`-m32` switch doesn't think it can generate i686 code (or something like that).
The compiler-rt build system probes for the `__i686__` define in GCC to compile
for an i686 (vs i386) target, so this was failing on the bots.
This tweaks instead to pass `-march=i686` on i686-unknown-linux-gnu to C code to
ensure that we're compiling for i686 instead of i386. This should hopefully not
actually have an impact other than maybe doing some random optimization it
wasn't able to do so before. In theory this isn't making the target less
compatible as all Rust code is already compiled for i686.
Hopefully closes#34572
Forcing them to be embedded in makefiles precludes being able to run them in
rustbuild, and adding them to compiletest gives us a great way to leverage
future enhancements to our "all encompassing test suite runner" as well as just
moving more things into Rust.
All tests are still Makefile-based in the sense that they rely on `make` being
available to run them, but there's no longer any Makefile-trickery to run them
and rustbuild can now run them out of the box as well.
rustc: Add an i586-pc-windows-msvc target
Similarly to #31629 where an i586-unknown-linux-gnu target was added, there is
sometimes a desire to compile for x86 Windows as well where SSE2 is disabled.
This commit mirrors the i586-unknown-linux-gnu target and simply adds a variant
for Windows as well.
This is motivated by a recent [Gecko bug][ff] where crashes were seen on 32-bit
Windows due to users having CPUs that don't support SSE2 instructions. It was
requested that we could have non-SSE2 builds of the standard library available
so they could continue to use vanilla releases and nightlies.

The `--disable-jemalloc` configure option has a failure mode where it will
create a distribution that is not compatible with other compilers. For example
the nightly for Linux will assume that it will link to jemalloc by default as
an allocator for executable crates. If, however, a standard library is used
which was built via `./configure --disable-jemalloc` then this will fail
because the jemalloc crate wasn't built.
While this seems somewhat reasonable as a niche situation, the same mechanism is
used for disabling jemalloc for platforms that just don't support it. For
example if the rumprun target is compiled then the sibiling Linux target *also*
doesn't have jemalloc. This is currently a problem for our cross-build nightlies
which build many targets. If rumprun is also built, it will disable jemalloc for
all targets, which isn't desired.
This commit moves the platform-specific disabling of jemalloc as hardcoded logic
into the makefiles that is scoped per-platform. This way when configuring
multiple targets **without the `--disable-jemalloc` option specified** all
targets will get jemalloc as they should.

Right now the compiler's we're using actually default to armv7/thumb2 I believe,
so this should help push them back to what the arm-unknown-linux-* targets are
for. This at least matches that clang does for the `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf`
target which is to map it to an armv6 architecture.
Closes#31787

Backtraces, and the compilation of libbacktrace for asmjs, are disabled.
This port doesn't use jemalloc so, like pnacl, it disables jemalloc *for all targets*
in the configure file.
It disables stack protection.
This pull request adds support for [Illumos](http://illumos.org/)-based operating systems: SmartOS, OpenIndiana, and others. For now it's x86-64 only, as I'm not sure if 32-bit installations are widespread. This PR is based on #28589 by @potatosalad, and also closes#21000, #25845, and #25846.
Required changes in libc are already merged: https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/libc/pull/138
Here's a snapshot required to build a stage0 compiler:
https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/nbaksalyar/rustc-sunos-snapshot.tar.gz
It passes all checks from `make check`.
There are some changes I'm not quite sure about, e.g. macro usage in `src/libstd/num/f64.rs` and `DirEntry` structure in `src/libstd/sys/unix/fs.rs`, so any comments on how to rewrite it better would be greatly appreciated.
Also, LLVM configure script might need to be patched to build it successfully, or a pre-built libLLVM should be used. Some details can be found here: https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25409
Thanks!

Currently any compilation to MIPS spits out the warning:
'generic' is not a recognized processor for this target (ignoring processor)
Doesn't make for a great user experience! We don't encounter this in the normal
bootstrap because the cpu/feature set are set by the makefiles. Instead let's
just propagate these to the defaults for the entire target all the time (still
overridable from the command line) and prevent warnings from being emitted by
default.
This target covers MIPS devices that run the trunk version of OpenWRT.
The x86_64-unknown-linux-musl target always links statically to C libraries. For
the mips(el)-unknown-linux-musl target, we opt for dynamic linking (like most of
other targets do) to keep binary size down.
As for the C compiler flags used in the build system, we use the same flags used
for the mips(el)-unknown-linux-gnu target.

The cross prefix was not likely the actual compiler that needed to be used, but
rather the standard `arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc` compiler can just be used with
`-march=armv7`.
Unfortunately older clang compilers don't support this argument, so the
bootstrap will fail. We don't actually really need to optimized the C code we
compile, however, as currently we're just compiling jemalloc and not much else.

this PR reverts previous ones, that tried to make `cc` to found `estdc++` in `/usr/local/lib`. It causes more trouble than it resolvs things: rustc become unbuildable if another version already exists in `/usr/local` (for example, `libstd-xxxx.so` is found in `/usr/local/lib` and in builddir).
so this PR tries another way to achieve build, but using the good linker for building. By default, rustc use `cc` for linking. But under OpenBSD, `cc` is gcc 4.2.1 from base, whereas we build with gcc 4.9 from ports. By linking using the compiler found at compile-time, we ensure that the compiler will found his own stdc++ library without trouble.

By default, rustc use `cc` as linker. Under OpenBSD, `cc` is gcc version 4.2.1.
So use the compiler found at configure-time for linking: it will be gcc 4.9.
It permits to resolv problem of finding -lestdc++ or -lgcc. For base gcc (4.2), there are in not standard path, whereas for ports gcc (4.9) there are in standard path.
The `rsbegin.o` and `rsend.o` build products should not be generated
on non WinGnu platforms.
This is another path to resolving #30063 for non win-gnu targets.
(And it won't require a snapshot, unlike PR #30208.)
Note: for now, this change only affects `-windows-gnu` builds.
So why was this `libgcc` dylib dependency needed in the first place?
The stack unwinder needs to know about locations of unwind tables of all the modules loaded in the current process. The easiest portable way of achieving this is to have each module register itself with the unwinder when loaded into the process. All modules compiled by GCC do this by calling the __register_frame_info() in their startup code (that's `crtbegin.o` and `crtend.o`, which are automatically linked into any gcc output).
Another important piece is that there should be only one copy of the unwinder (and thus unwind tables registry) in the process. This pretty much means that the unwinder must be in a shared library (unless everything is statically linked).
Now, Rust compiler tries very hard to make sure that any given Rust crate appears in the final output just once. So if we link the unwinder statically to one of Rust's crates, everything should be fine.
Unfortunately, GCC startup objects are built under assumption that `libgcc` is the one true place for the unwind info registry, so I couldn't find any better way than to replace them. So out go `crtbegin`/`crtend`, in come `rsbegin`/`rsend`!
A side benefit of this change is that rustc is now more in control of the command line that goes to the linker, so we could stop using `gcc` as the linker driver and just invoke `ld` directly.
Since it isn't possible to disable linkage of just GCC startup objects, we now need logic for finding libc installation directory and copying the required startup files (e.g. crt2.o) to rustlib directory.
Bonus change: use the `-nodefaultlibs` flag on Windows, thus paving the way to direct linker invocation.
