Disallow function pointers to #[rustc_args_required_const] This commit disallows acquiring a function pointer to functions tagged as `#[rustc_args_required_const]`. This is intended to be used as future-proofing for the stdsimd crate to avoid taking a function pointer to any intrinsic which has a hard requirement that one of the arguments is a constant value. Note that the first commit here isn't related specifically to this feature, but was necessary to get this working in stdsimd! |

NB: This crate is part of the Rust compiler. For an overview of the
compiler as a whole, see
the README.md file found in librustc.
The rustc_typeck crate contains the source for "type collection" and
"type checking", as well as a few other bits of related functionality.
(It draws heavily on the type inferencing and
trait solving code found in librustc.)
Type collection
Type "collection" is the process of converting the types found in the
HIR (hir::Ty), which represent the syntactic things that the user
wrote, into the internal representation used by the compiler
(Ty<'tcx>) -- we also do similar conversions for where-clauses and
other bits of the function signature.
To try and get a sense for the difference, consider this function:
struct Foo { }
fn foo(x: Foo, y: self::Foo) { .. }
// ^^^ ^^^^^^^^^
Those two parameters x and y each have the same type: but they
will have distinct hir::Ty nodes. Those nodes will have different
spans, and of course they encode the path somewhat differently. But
once they are "collected" into Ty<'tcx> nodes, they will be
represented by the exact same internal type.
Collection is defined as a bundle of queries (e.g., type_of) for
computing information about the various functions, traits, and other
items in the crate being compiled. Note that each of these queries is
concerned with interprocedural things -- for example, for a function
definition, collection will figure out the type and signature of the
function, but it will not visit the body of the function in any way,
nor examine type annotations on local variables (that's the job of
type checking).
For more details, see the collect module.
