Tokenize emoji as if they were valid identifiers
In the lexer, consider emojis to be valid identifiers and reject
them later to avoid knock down parse errors.
Partially address #86102.
LLVM has built-in heuristics for adding stack canaries to functions. These
heuristics can be selected with LLVM function attributes. This patch adds a
rustc option `-Z stack-protector={none,basic,strong,all}` which controls the use
of these attributes. This gives rustc the same stack smash protection support as
clang offers through options `-fno-stack-protector`, `-fstack-protector`,
`-fstack-protector-strong`, and `-fstack-protector-all`. The protection this can
offer is demonstrated in test/ui/abi/stack-protector.rs. This fills a gap in the
current list of rustc exploit
mitigations (https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/exploit-mitigations.html),
originally discussed in #15179.
Stack smash protection adds runtime overhead and is therefore still off by
default, but now users have the option to trade performance for security as they
see fit. An example use case is adding Rust code in an existing C/C++ code base
compiled with stack smash protection. Without the ability to add stack smash
protection to the Rust code, the code base artifacts could be exploitable in
ways not possible if the code base remained pure C/C++.
Stack smash protection support is present in LLVM for almost all the current
tier 1/tier 2 targets: see
test/assembly/stack-protector/stack-protector-target-support.rs. The one
exception is nvptx64-nvidia-cuda. This patch follows clang's example, and adds a
warning message printed if stack smash protection is used with this target (see
test/ui/stack-protector/warn-stack-protector-unsupported.rs). Support for tier 3
targets has not been checked.
Since the heuristics are applied at the LLVM level, the heuristics are expected
to add stack smash protection to a fraction of functions comparable to C/C++.
Some experiments demonstrating how Rust code is affected by the different
heuristics can be found in
test/assembly/stack-protector/stack-protector-heuristics-effect.rs. There is
potential for better heuristics using Rust-specific safety information. For
example it might be reasonable to skip stack smash protection in functions which
transitively only use safe Rust code, or which uses only a subset of functions
the user declares safe (such as anything under `std.*`). Such alternative
heuristics could be added at a later point.
LLVM also offers a "safestack" sanitizer as an alternative way to guard against
stack smashing (see #26612). This could possibly also be included as a
stack-protection heuristic. An alternative is to add it as a sanitizer (#39699).
This is what clang does: safestack is exposed with option
`-fsanitize=safe-stack`.
The options are only supported by the LLVM backend, but as with other codegen
options it is visible in the main codegen option help menu. The heuristic names
"basic", "strong", and "all" are hopefully sufficiently generic to be usable in
other backends as well.

Try all stable method candidates first before trying unstable ones
Currently we try methods in this order in each step:
* Stable by value
* Unstable by value

This PR changes it to first try pick methods without any unstable candidates, and if none is found, try again to pick unstable ones.

`@rustbot` label T-compiler T-libs-api
Leave -Z strip available temporarily as an alias, to avoid breaking
cargo until cargo transitions to using -C strip. (If the user passes
both, the -C version wins.)
Tweak the `options!` macro to allow for -Z and -C options with the same
name without generating conflicting internal parsing functions.
Split out of the commit stabilizing -Z strip as -C strip.
Added the --temps-dir option
Fixes#10971.
The new `--temps-dir` option puts intermediate files in a user-specified directory. This provides a fix for the issue where parallel invocations of rustc would overwrite each other's intermediate files.
No files are kept in the intermediate directory unless `-C save-temps=yes`.
If additional files are specifically requested using `--emit asm,llvm-bc,llvm-ir,obj,metadata,link,dep-info,mir`, these will be put in the output directory rather than the intermediate directory.
This is a backward-compatible change, i.e. if `--temps-dir` is not specified, the behavior is the same as before.
Don't abort compilation after giving a lint error
The only reason to use `abort_if_errors` is when the program is so broken that either:
1. later passes get confused and ICE
2. any diagnostics from later passes would be noise
This is never the case for lints, because the compiler has to be able to deal with `allow`-ed lints.
So it can continue to lint and compile even if there are lint errors.
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82761. This is a WIP because I have a feeling it will exit with 0 even if there were lint errors; I don't have a computer that can build rustc locally at the moment.
Add LLVM CFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support to the Rust compiler. It initially provides forward-edge control flow protection for Rust-compiled code only by aggregating function pointers in groups identified by their number of arguments.
Forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code share the same virtual address space) will be provided in later work as part of this project by defining and using compatible type identifiers (see Type metadata in the design document in the tracking issue #89653).
LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and requires LTO (i.e., -Clto).
Thank you, `@eddyb` and `@pcc,` for all the help!

Add -Z no-unique-section-names to reduce ELF header bloat.
This change adds a new compiler flag that can help reduce the size of ELF binaries that contain many functions.
By default, when enabling function sections (which is the default for most targets), the LLVM backend will generate different section names for each function. For example, a function `func` would generate a section called `.text.func`. Normally this is fine because the linker will merge all those sections into a single one in the binary. However, starting with [LLVM 12](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/ee5d1a04), the backend will also generate unique section names for exception handling, resulting in thousands of `.gcc_except_table.*` sections ending up in the final binary because some linkers like LLD don't currently merge or strip these EH sections (see discussion [here](https://reviews.llvm.org/D83655)). This can bloat the ELF headers and string table significantly in binaries that contain many functions.
The new option is analogous to Clang's `-fno-unique-section-names`, and instructs LLVM to generate the same `.text` and `.gcc_except_table` section for each function, resulting in a smaller final binary.
The motivation to add this new option was because we have a binary that ended up with so many ELF sections (over 65,000) that it broke some existing ELF tools, which couldn't handle so many sections.
Here's our old binary:
```
$ readelf --sections old.elf | head -1
There are 71746 section headers, starting at offset 0x2a246508:
$ readelf --sections old.elf | grep shstrtab
[71742] .shstrtab STRTAB 0000000000000000 2977204c ad44bb 00 0 0 1
```
That's an 11MB+ string table. Here's the new binary using this option:
```
$ readelf --sections new.elf | head -1
There are 43 section headers, starting at offset 0x29143ca8:
$ readelf --sections new.elf | grep shstrtab
[40] .shstrtab STRTAB 0000000000000000 29143acc 0001db 00 0 0 1
```
The whole binary size went down by over 20MB, which is quite significant.
Implement -Z location-detail flag
This PR implements the `-Z location-detail` flag as described in https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2091 .
`-Z location-detail=val` controls what location details are tracked when using `caller_location`. This allows users to control what location details are printed as part of panic messages, by allowing them to exclude any combination of filenames, line numbers, and column numbers. This option is intended to provide users with a way to mitigate the size impact of `#[track_caller]`.
Some measurements of the savings of this approach on an embedded binary can be found here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/70579#issuecomment-942556822 .
Closes#70580 (unless people want to leave that open as a place for discussion of further improvements).
This is my first real PR to rust, so any help correcting mistakes / understanding side effects / improving my tests is appreciated :)
I have one question: RFC 2091 specified this as a debugging option (I think that is what -Z implies?). Does that mean this can never be stabilized without a separate MCP? If so, do I need to submit an MCP now, or is the initial RFC specifying this option sufficient for this to be merged as is, and then an MCP would be needed for eventual stabilization?
Report fatal lexer errors in `--cfg` command line arguments
Fixes#89358. The erroneous behavior was apparently introduced by `@Mark-Simulacrum` in a678e31911; the idea is to silence individual parser errors and instead emit one catch-all error message after parsing. However, for the example in #89358, a fatal lexer error is created here:
edebf77e00/compiler/rustc_parse/src/lexer/mod.rs (L340-L349)
This fatal error aborts the compilation, and so the call to `new_parser_from_source_str()` never returns and the catch-all error message is never emitted. I have therefore changed the `SilentEmitter` to silence only non-fatal errors; with my changes, for the rustc invocation described in #89358:
```sh
rustc --cfg "abc\""
```
I get the following output:
```
error[E0765]: unterminated double quote string
|
= note: this error occurred on the command line: `--cfg=abc"`
```
Add support for artifact size profiling

Correct decoding of foreign expansions during incr. comp.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/74946
The original issue was due to a wrong assertion in `expn_hash_to_expn_id`.
The secondary issue was due to a mismatch between the encoding and decoding paths for expansions that are created after the TyCtxt is created.
This largely involves implementing the options debug-info-for-profiling
and profile-sample-use and forwarding them on to LLVM.
AutoFDO can be used on x86-64 Linux like this:
rustc -O -Cdebug-info-for-profiling main.rs -o main
perf record -b ./main
create_llvm_prof --binary=main --out=code.prof
rustc -O -Cprofile-sample-use=code.prof main.rs -o main2
Now `main2` will have feedback directed optimization applied to it.
The create_llvm_prof tool can be obtained from this github repository:

Couple of changes to FileSearch and SearchPath
* Turn a couple of regular comments into doc comments
* Move `get_tools_search_paths` from `FileSearch` to `Session`
* Use Lrc instead of Option to avoid duplication of a `SearchPath`
Introduce -Z remap-cwd-prefix switch
This switch remaps any absolute paths rooted under the current
working directory to a new value. This includes remapping the
debug info in `DW_AT_comp_dir` and `DW_AT_decl_file`.
Importantly, this flag does not require passing the current working
directory to the compiler, such that the command line can be
run on any machine (with the same input files) and produce the
same results. This is critical property for debugging compiler
issues that crop up on remote machines.
This is based on adetaylor's dbc4ae7cba
Major Change Proposal: https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/450
Discussed on #38322. Would resolve issue #87325.
Add -Z panic-in-drop={unwind,abort} command-line option
This PR changes `Drop` to abort if an unwinding panic attempts to escape it, making the process abort instead. This has several benefits:
- The current behavior when unwinding out of `Drop` is very unintuitive and easy to miss: unwinding continues, but the remaining drops in scope are simply leaked.
- A lot of unsafe code doesn't expect drops to unwind, which can lead to unsoundness:
- https://github.com/servo/rust-smallvec/issues/14
- https://github.com/bluss/arrayvec/issues/3
- There is a code size and compilation time cost to this: LLVM needs to generate extra landing pads out of all calls in a drop implementation. This can compound when functions are inlined since unwinding will then continue on to process drops in the callee, which can itself unwind, etc.
- Initial measurements show a 3% size reduction and up to 10% compilation time reduction on some crates (`syn`).
One thing to note about `-Z panic-in-drop=abort` is that *all* crates must be built with this option for it to be sound since it makes the compiler assume that dropping `Box<dyn Any>` will never unwind.

We can instead if either the LHS or RHS types contain
`TyKind::Error`. In addition to covering the case where
we would have previously updated `if_let_suggestions`, this might
also prevent redundant errors in other cases as well.
Remove `Session.trait_methods_not_found`
Instead, avoid registering the problematic well-formed obligation
to begin with. This removes global untracked mutable state,
and avoids potential issues with incremental compilation.
Remove `Session.used_attrs` and move logic to `CheckAttrVisitor`
Instead of updating global state to mark attributes as used,
we now explicitly emit a warning when an attribute is used in
an unsupported position. As a side effect, we are to emit more
detailed warning messages (instead of just a generic "unused" message).
`Session.check_name` is removed, since its only purpose was to mark
the attribute as used. All of the callers are modified to use
`Attribute.has_name`
Additionally, `AttributeType::AssumedUsed` is removed - an 'assumed
used' attribute is implemented by simply not performing any checks
in `CheckAttrVisitor` for a particular attribute.
We no longer emit unused attribute warnings for the `#[rustc_dummy]`
attribute - it's an internal attribute used for tests, so it doesn't
mark sense to treat it as 'unused'.
With this commit, a large source of global untracked state is removed.

Fixes#85019
A `SourceFile` created during compilation may have a relative
path (e.g. if rustc itself is invoked with a relative path).
When we write out crate metadata, we convert all relative paths
to absolute paths using the current working direction.
However, the working directory is not included in the crate hash.
This means that the crate metadata can change while the crate
hash remains the same. Among other problems, this can cause a
fingerprint mismatch ICE, since incremental compilation uses
the crate metadata hash to determine if a foreign query is green.
This commit moves the field holding the working directory from
`Session` to `Options`, including it as part of the crate hash.
Plugin interface cleanup
