Felix S. Klock II 263a433f19 Ensure dataflow of a proc never looks at blocks from closed-over context.
Details: in a program like:
```
type T = proc(int) -> int; /* 4 */

pub fn outer(captured /* pat 16 */: T) -> T {
    (proc(x /* pat 23 */) {
        ((captured /* 29 */).foo((x /* 30 */)) /* 28 */)
    } /* block 27 */ /* 20 */)
} /* block 19 */ /* 12 */
```
the `captured` arg is moved from the outer fn into the inner proc (id=20).

The old dataflow analysis for flowed_move_data_moves, when looking at
the inner proc, would attempt to add a kill bit for `captured` at the
end of its scope; the problem is that it thought the end of the
`captured` arg's scope was the outer fn (id=12), even though at that
point in the analysis, the `captured` arg's scope should now be
restricted to the proc itself (id=20).

This patch fixes handling of upvars so that dataflow of a fn/proc
should never attempts to add a gen or kill bit to any NodeId outside
of the current fn/proc.  It accomplishes this by adding an `LpUpvar`
variant to `borrowck::LoanPath`, so for cases like `captured` above
will carry both their original `var_id`, as before, as well as the
`NodeId` for the closure that is capturing them.

As a drive-by fix to another occurrence of a similar bug that
nikomatsakis pointed out to me earlier, this also fixes
`gather_loans::compute_kill_scope` so that it computes the kill scope
of the `captured` arg to be block 27; that is, the block for the proc
itself (id=20).

(This is an updated version that generalizes the new loan path variant
to cover all upvars, and thus renamed the variant from `LpCopiedUpvar`
to just `LpUpvar`.)

The Rust Programming Language

This is a compiler for Rust, including standard libraries, tools and documentation.

Quick Start

  1. Download a binary installer for your platform.
  2. Read the tutorial.
  3. Enjoy!

Note: Windows users can read the detailed getting started notes on the wiki.

Building from Source

  1. Make sure you have installed the dependencies:

    • g++ 4.7 or clang++ 3.x
    • python 2.6 or later (but not 3.x)
    • perl 5.0 or later
    • GNU make 3.81 or later
    • curl
    • git
  2. Download and build Rust:

    You can either download a tarball or build directly from the repo.

    To build from the tarball do:

     $ curl -O http://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-nightly.tar.gz
     $ tar -xzf rust-nightly.tar.gz
     $ cd rust-nightly
    

    Or to build from the repo do:

     $ git clone https://github.com/rust-lang/rust.git
     $ cd rust
    

    Now that you have Rust's source code, you can configure and build it:

     $ ./configure
     $ make && make install
    

    Note: You may need to use sudo make install if you do not normally have permission to modify the destination directory. The install locations can be adjusted by passing a --prefix argument to configure. Various other options are also supported, pass --help for more information on them.

    When complete, make install will place several programs into /usr/local/bin: rustc, the Rust compiler, and rustdoc, the API-documentation tool. system.

  3. Read the tutorial.

  4. Enjoy!

Notes

Since the Rust compiler is written in Rust, it must be built by a precompiled "snapshot" version of itself (made in an earlier state of development). As such, source builds require a connection to the Internet, to fetch snapshots, and an OS that can execute the available snapshot binaries.

Snapshot binaries are currently built and tested on several platforms:

  • Windows (7, 8, Server 2008 R2), x86 only
  • Linux (2.6.18 or later, various distributions), x86 and x86-64
  • OSX 10.7 (Lion) or greater, x86 and x86-64

You may find that other platforms work, but these are our officially supported build environments that are most likely to work.

Rust currently needs about 1.5 GiB of RAM to build without swapping; if it hits swap, it will take a very long time to build.

There is a lot more documentation in the wiki.
