Remove `weak` alias terminology
I find the "weak" alias terminology to be quite confusing. It implies the existence of "strong" aliases (which do not exist) and I'm not really sure what about weak aliases is "weak". I much prefer "free alias" as the term. I think it's much more obvious what it means as "free function" is a well defined term that already exists in rust.
It's also a little confusing given "weak alias" is already a term in linker/codegen spaces which are part of the compiler too. Though I'm not particularly worried about that as it's usually very obvious if you're talking about the type system or not lol. I'm also currently trying to write documentation about aliases and it's somewhat awkward/confusing to be talking about *weak* aliases, when I'm not really sure what the basis for that as the term actually *is*.
I would also be happy to just find out there's a nice meaning behind calling them "weak" aliases :-)

maybe we want a types MCP to decide on a specific naming here? or maybe we think its just too late to go back on this naming decision ^^'
StableMIR: Implement `CompilerInterface`
This PR implements part of [the document](https://hackmd.io/``@celinaval/H1lJBGse0).``
With `TablesWrapper` wrapped by `CompilerInterface`, the stable-mir's TLV stores a pointer to `CompilerInterface`, while the rustc-specific TLV stores a pointer to tables.
Pass `args` to `run` instead of storing it in a field. This avoids the
need to clone it within `run`.
Also, change `args` from `Vec<String>` to `&[String]`, avoiding the need
for some vecs and clones.
- With `Context` wrapped by `SmirInterface`, the stable-mir's TLV stores a pointer to `SmirInterface`, while the rustc-specific TLV stores a pointer to tables.
- This PR make the `rustc_smir` mod public.
Overhaul `AssocItem`
`AssocItem` has multiple fields that only make sense some of the time. E.g. the `name` can be empty if it's an RPITIT associated type. It's clearer and less error prone if these fields are moved to the relevant `kind` variants.
r? ``@fee1-dead``
To accurately reflect that RPITIT assoc items don't have a name. This
avoids the use of `kw::Empty` to mean "no name", which is error prone.
Helps with #137978.
`hir::AssocItem` currently has a boolean `fn_has_self_parameter` field,
which is misplaced, because it's only relevant for associated fns, not
for associated consts or types. This commit moves it (and renames it) to
the `AssocKind::Fn` variant, where it belongs.
This requires introducing a new C-style enum, `AssocTag`, which is like
`AssocKind` but without the fields. This is because `AssocKind` values
are passed to various functions like `find_by_ident_and_kind` to
indicate what kind of associated item should be searched for, and having
to specify `has_self` isn't relevant there.
New methods:
- Predicates `AssocItem::is_fn` and `AssocItem::is_method`.
- `AssocItem::as_tag` which converts `AssocItem::kind` to `AssocTag`.
Removed `find_by_name_and_kinds`, which is unused.
`AssocItem::descr` can now distinguish between methods and associated
functions, which slightly improves some error messages.
It's very useful. There are some false positives involving integration
tests in `rustc_pattern_analysis` and `rustc_serialize`. There is also a
false positive involving `rustc_driver_impl`'s
`rustc_randomized_layouts` feature. And I removed a `rustc_span` mention
in a doc comment in `rustc_log` because it wasn't integral to the
comment but caused a dev-dependency.
Continuing the work from #137350.
Removes the unused methods: `expect_variant`, `expect_field`,
`expect_foreign_item`.
Every method gains a `hir_` prefix.
Revert <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/138084> to buy time to
consider options that avoids breaking downstream usages of cargo on
distributed `rustc-src` artifacts, where such cargo invocations fail due
to inability to inherit `lints` from workspace root manifest's
`workspace.lints` (this is only valid for the source rust-lang/rust
workspace, but not really the distributed `rustc-src` artifacts).
This breakage was reported in
<https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/138304>.
This reverts commit 48caf81484, reversing
changes made to c6662879b2.
By naming them in `[workspace.lints.rust]` in the top-level
`Cargo.toml`, and then making all `compiler/` crates inherit them with
`[lints] workspace = true`. (I omitted `rustc_codegen_{cranelift,gcc}`,
because they're a bit different.)
The advantages of this over the current approach:
- It uses a standard Cargo feature, rather than special handling in
bootstrap. So, easier to understand, and less likely to get
accidentally broken in the future.
- It works for proc macro crates.
It's a shame it doesn't work for rustc-specific lints, as the comments
explain.
valtree performance tuning
Summary: This PR makes type checking of code with many type-level constants faster.
After https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136180 was merged, we observed a small perf regression (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136318#issuecomment-2635562821). This happened because that PR introduced additional copies in the fast reject code path for consts, which is very hot for certain crates: 6c1d960d88/compiler/rustc_type_ir/src/fast_reject.rs (L486-L487)
This PR improves the performance again by properly interning the valtrees so that copying and comparing them becomes faster. This will become especially useful with `feature(adt_const_params)`, so the fast reject code doesn't have to do a deep compare of the valtrees.
Note that we can't just compare the interned consts themselves in the fast reject, because sometimes `'static` lifetimes in the type are be replaced with inference variables (due to canonicalization) on one side but not the other.
A less invasive alternative that I considered is simply avoiding copies introduced by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136180 and comparing the valtrees it in-place (see commit: 9e91e50ac5 / perf results: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136593#issuecomment-2642303245), however that was still measurably slower than interning.
There are some minor regressions in secondary benchmarks: These happen due to changes in memory allocations and seem acceptable to me. The crates that make heavy use of valtrees show no significant changes in memory usage.
It is speculated that these two can be conceptually merged, and it can
start by ripping out rustc's notion of the PtxKernel call convention.
Leave the ExternAbi for now, but the nvptx target now should see it as
just a different way to spell Conv::GpuKernel.
