This commit implements the stabilization of the custom hasher support intended
for 1.7 but left out due to some last-minute questions that needed some
decisions. A summary of the actions done in this PR are:
Stable
* `std:#️⃣:BuildHasher`
* `BuildHasher::Hasher`
* `BuildHasher::build_hasher`
* `std:#️⃣:BuildHasherDefault`
* `HashMap::with_hasher`
* `HashMap::with_capacity_and_hasher`
* `HashSet::with_hasher`
* `HashSet::with_capacity_and_hasher`
* `std::collections::hash_map::RandomState`
* `RandomState::new`
Deprecated
* `std::collections::hash_state`
* `std::collections::hash_state::HashState` - this trait was also moved into
`std::hash` with a reexport here to ensure that we can have a blanket impl to
prevent immediate breakage on nightly. Note that this is unstable in both
location.

This commit removes all unstable and deprecated functions in the standard
library. A release was recently cut (1.3) which makes this a good time for some
spring cleaning of the deprecated functions.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 823][rfc] which is another pass over
the `std::hash` module for stabilization. The contents of the module were not
entirely marked stable, but some portions which remained quite similar to the
previous incarnation are now marked `#[stable]`. Specifically:
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0823-hash-simplification.md
* `std::hash` is now stable (the name)
* `Hash` is now stable
* `Hash::hash` is now stable
* `Hasher` is now stable
* `SipHasher` is now stable
* `SipHasher::new` and `new_with_keys` are now stable
* `Hasher for SipHasher` is now stable
* Many `Hash` implementations are now stable
All other portions of the `hash` module remain `#[unstable]` as they are less
commonly used and were recently redesigned.
This commit is a breaking change due to the modifications to the `std::hash` API
and more details can be found on the [RFC][rfc].
Closes#22467
[breaking-change]
There are a number of holes that the stability lint did not previously cover,
including:
* Types
* Bounds on type parameters on functions and impls
* Where clauses
* Imports
* Patterns (structs and enums)
These holes have all been fixed by overriding the `visit_path` function on the
AST visitor instead of a few specialized cases. This change also necessitated a
few stability changes:
* The `collections::fmt` module is now stable (it was already supposed to be).
* The `thread_local:👿:Key` type is now stable (it was already supposed to
be).
* The `std::rt::{begin_unwind, begin_unwind_fmt}` functions are now stable.
These are required via the `panic!` macro.
* The `std::old_io::stdio::{println, println_args}` functions are now stable.
These are required by the `print!` and `println!` macros.
* The `ops::{FnOnce, FnMut, Fn}` traits are now `#[stable]`. This is required to
make bounds with these traits stable. Note that manual implementations of
these traits are still gated by default, this stability only allows bounds
such as `F: FnOnce()`.
Additionally, the compiler now has special logic to ignore its own generated
`__test` module for the `--test` harness in terms of stability.

[breaking-change]
This commit aims to prepare the `std::hash` module for alpha by formalizing its
current interface whileholding off on adding `#[stable]` to the new APIs. The
current usage with the `HashMap` and `HashSet` types is also reconciled by
separating out composable parts of the design. The primary goal of this slight
redesign is to separate the concepts of a hasher's state from a hashing
algorithm itself.
The primary change of this commit is to separate the `Hasher` trait into a
`Hasher` and a `HashState` trait. Conceptually the old `Hasher` trait was
actually just a factory for various states, but hashing had very little control
over how these states were used. Additionally the old `Hasher` trait was
actually fairly unrelated to hashing.
This commit redesigns the existing `Hasher` trait to match what the notion of a
`Hasher` normally implies with the following definition:
trait Hasher {
type Output;
fn reset(&mut self);
fn finish(&self) -> Output;
}
This `Hasher` trait emphasizes that hashing algorithms may produce outputs other
than a `u64`, so the output type is made generic. Other than that, however, very
little is assumed about a particular hasher. It is left up to implementors to
provide specific methods or trait implementations to feed data into a hasher.
The corresponding `Hash` trait becomes:
trait Hash<H: Hasher> {
fn hash(&self, &mut H);
}
The old default of `SipState` was removed from this trait as it's not something
that we're willing to stabilize until the end of time, but the type parameter is
always required to implement `Hasher`. Note that the type parameter `H` remains
on the trait to enable multidispatch for specialization of hashing for
particular hashers.
Note that `Writer` is not mentioned in either of `Hash` or `Hasher`, it is
simply used as part `derive` and the implementations for all primitive types.
With these definitions, the old `Hasher` trait is realized as a new `HashState`
trait in the `collections::hash_state` module as an unstable addition for
now. The current definition looks like:
trait HashState {
type Hasher: Hasher;
fn hasher(&self) -> Hasher;
}
The purpose of this trait is to emphasize that the one piece of functionality
for implementors is that new instances of `Hasher` can be created. This
conceptually represents the two keys from which more instances of a
`SipHasher` can be created, and a `HashState` is what's stored in a
`HashMap`, not a `Hasher`.
Implementors of custom hash algorithms should implement the `Hasher` trait, and
only hash algorithms intended for use in hash maps need to implement or worry
about the `HashState` trait.
The entire module and `HashState` infrastructure remains `#[unstable]` due to it
being recently redesigned, but some other stability decision made for the
`std::hash` module are:
* The `Writer` trait remains `#[experimental]` as it's intended to be replaced
with an `io::Writer` (more details soon).
* The top-level `hash` function is `#[unstable]` as it is intended to be generic
over the hashing algorithm instead of hardwired to `SipHasher`
* The inner `sip` module is now private as its one export, `SipHasher` is
reexported in the `hash` module.
And finally, a few changes were made to the default parameters on `HashMap`.
* The `RandomSipHasher` default type parameter was renamed to `RandomState`.
This renaming emphasizes that it is not a hasher, but rather just state to
generate hashers. It also moves away from the name "sip" as it may not always
be implemented as `SipHasher`. This type lives in the
`std::collections::hash_map` module as `#[unstable]`
* The associated `Hasher` type of `RandomState` is creatively called...
`Hasher`! This concrete structure lives next to `RandomState` as an
implemenation of the "default hashing algorithm" used for a `HashMap`. Under
the hood this is currently implemented as `SipHasher`, but it draws an
explicit interface for now and allows us to modify the implementation over
time if necessary.
There are many breaking changes outlined above, and as a result this commit is
a:
[breaking-change]
This commit moves the libserialize crate (and will force the hand of the
rustc-serialize crate) to not require the `old_orphan_check` feature gate as
well as using associated types wherever possible. Concretely, the following
changes were made:
* The error type of `Encoder` and `Decoder` is now an associated type, meaning
that these traits have no type parameters.
* The `Encoder` and `Decoder` type parameters on the `Encodable` and `Decodable`
traits have moved to the corresponding method of the trait. This movement
alleviates the dependency on `old_orphan_check` but implies that
implementations can no longer be specialized for the type of encoder/decoder
being implemented.
Due to the trait definitions changing, this is a:
[breaking-change]
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.
[breaking-change]
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}.
