Add LLVM KCFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds LLVM Kernel Control Flow Integrity (KCFI) support to the Rust compiler. It initially provides forward-edge control flow protection for operating systems kernels for Rust-compiled code only by aggregating function pointers in groups identified by their return and parameter types. (See llvm/llvm-project@cff5bef.)
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 identifying C char and integer type uses at the time types are encoded (see Type metadata in the design document in the tracking issue #89653).
LLVM KCFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=kcfi.

This ensures that the error is printed even for unused variables,
as well as unifying the handling between the LLVM and GCC backends.
This also fixes unusual behavior around exported Rust-defined variables
with linkage attributes. With the previous behavior, it appears to be
impossible to define such a variable such that it can actually be imported
and used by another crate. This is because on the importing side, the
variable is required to be a pointer, but on the exporting side, the
type checker rejects static variables of pointer type because they do
not implement `Sync`. Even if it were possible to import such a type, it
appears that code generation on the importing side would add an unexpected
additional level of pointer indirection, which would break type safety.
This highlighted that the semantics of linkage on Rust-defined variables
is different to linkage on foreign items. As such, we now model the
difference with two different codegen attributes: linkage for Rust-defined
variables, and import_linkage for foreign items.
This change gives semantics to the test
src/test/ui/linkage-attr/auxiliary/def_illtyped_external.rs which was
previously expected to fail to compile. Therefore, convert it into a
test that is expected to successfully compile.
The update to the GCC backend is speculative and untested.
Prefer doc comments over `//`-comments in compiler
Doc comments are generally nicer: they show up in the documentation, they are shown in IDEs when you hover other mentions of items, etc. Thus it makes sense to use them instead of `//`-comments.
Improve generating Custom entry function
This commit is aimed at making compiler-generated entry functions (Basically just C `main` right now) more generic so other targets can do similar things for custom entry. This was initially implemented as part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100316.
Currently, this moves the entry function name and Call convention to the target spec.

Fix some misleading target feature aliases
This is the first half of a fix for #100752. It looks like these aliases were added in #78361 and slipped under the radar, as these features are not AVX512. These features _do_ add AVX512 instructions when used _in combination_ with AVX512F, but without AVX512F, these features still provide 128-bit and 256-bit vector instructions. A user might be mislead into thinking these features imply AVX512F (which is true of the actual AVX512 features). This PR allows using the names as defined by LLVM, which matches Intel documentation.
A future PR should change the `std::arch` intrinsics to use these names, and finally remove these aliases from rustc.

Perform simple scalar replacement of aggregates (SROA) MIR opt
This is a re-open of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/85796
I copied the debuginfo implementation (first commit) from `@eddyb's` own SROA PR.
This pass replaces plain field accesses by simple locals when possible.
To be eligible, the replaced locals:
- must not be enums or unions;
- must not be used whole;
- must not have their address taken.
The storage and deinit statements are duplicated on each created local.

The new implementation doesn't use weak lang items and instead changes
`#[alloc_error_handler]` to an attribute macro just like
`#[global_allocator]`.
The attribute will generate the `__rg_oom` function which is called by
the compiler-generated `__rust_alloc_error_handler`. If no `__rg_oom`
function is defined in any crate then the compiler shim will call
`__rdl_oom` in the alloc crate which will simply panic.
This also fixes link errors with `-C link-dead-code` with
`default_alloc_error_handler`: `__rg_oom` was previously defined in the
alloc crate and would attempt to reference the `oom` lang item, even if
it didn't exist. This worked as long as `__rg_oom` was excluded from
linking since it was not called.
This is a prerequisite for the stabilization of
`default_alloc_error_handler` (#102318).

Move the cast_float_to_int fallback code to GCC
Now that we require at least LLVM 13, that codegen backend is always
using its intrinsic `fptosi.sat` and `fptoui.sat` conversions, so it
doesn't need the manual implementation. However, the GCC backend still
needs it, so we can move all of that code down there.
interpret: make read-pointer-as-bytes a CTFE-only error with extra information
Next step in the reaction to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/99923. Also teaches Miri to implicitly strip provenance in more situations when transmuting pointers to integers, which fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/2456.
Pointer-to-int transmutation during CTFE now produces a message like this:
```

= help: the absolute address of a pointer is not known at compile-time, so such operations are not supported

Add pointer masking convenience functions
This PR adds the following public API:
```rust
impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
fn mask(self, mask: usize) -> *const T;
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
fn mask(self, mask: usize) -> *const T;
}
// mod intrinsics
fn mask<T>(ptr: *const T, mask: usize) -> *const T
```
This is equivalent to `ptr.map_addr(|a| a & mask)` but also uses a cool llvm intrinsic.

Currently they try to be very precise. But they are wrong, i.e. they
don't match what's happening in the loop below. This code isn't hot
enough for it to matter that much.
Because `PassMode::Cast` is by far the largest variant, but is
relatively rare.
This requires making `PassMode` not impl `Copy`, and `Clone` is no
longer necessary. This causes lots of sigil adjusting, but nothing very
notable.
Now that we require at least LLVM 13, that codegen backend is always
using its intrinsic `fptosi.sat` and `fptoui.sat` conversions, so it
doesn't need the manual implementation. However, the GCC backend still
needs it, so we can move all of that code down there.
This avoids monomorphizing all linker code for each codegen backend and
will allow passing in extra information to the archive builder from the
codegen backend.
Enable raw-dylib for bin crates
Fixes#93842
When `raw-dylib` is used in a `bin` crate, we need to collect all of the `raw-dylib` functions, generate the import library and add that to the linker command line.
I also changed the tests so that 1) the C++ dlls are created after the Rust dlls, thus there is no chance of accidentally using them in the Rust linking process and 2) disabled generating import libraries when building with MSVC.

make vtable pointers entirely opaque
This implements the scheme discussed in https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/338: vtable pointers should be considered entirely opaque and not even readable by Rust code, similar to function pointers.
- We have a new kind of `GlobalAlloc` that symbolically refers to a vtable.
- Miri uses that kind of allocation when generating a vtable.
- The codegen backends, upon encountering such an allocation, call `vtable_allocation` to obtain an actually dataful allocation for this vtable.
- We need new intrinsics to obtain the size and align from a vtable (for some `ptr::metadata` APIs), since direct accesses are UB now.
I had to touch quite a bit of code that I am not very familiar with, so some of this might not make much sense...

Use less string interning
This removes string interning in a couple of places where doing so won't result in perf improvements. I also switched one place to use pre-interned symbols.
Remove the source archive functionality of ArchiveWriter
We now build archives through strictly additive means rather than taking an existing archive and potentially substracting parts. This is simpler and makes it easier to swap out the archive writer in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97485.
Make `std::mem::needs_drop` accept `?Sized`
This change attempts to make `needs_drop` work with types like `[u8]` and `str`.
This enables code in types like `Arc<T>` that was not possible before, such as https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/97676.
Add the intrinsic
declare {i8*, i1} @llvm.type.checked.load(i8* %ptr, i32 %offset, metadata %type)
This is used in the VFE optimization when lowering loading functions
from vtables to LLVM IR. The `metadata` is used to map the function to
all vtables this function could belong to. This ensures that functions
from vtables that might be used somewhere won't get removed.
It looks like the last time had left some remaining cfg's -- which made me think
that the stage0 bump was actually successful. This brings us to a released 1.62
beta though.

Allow self-profiler to only record potentially costly arguments when argument recording is turned on
As discussed [on zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/247081-t-compiler.2Fperformance/topic/Identifying.20proc-macro.20slowdowns/near/277304909) with `@wesleywiser,` I'd like to record proc-macro expansions in the self-profiler, with some detailed data (per-expansion spans for example, to follow #95473).
At the same time, I'd also like to avoid doing expensive things when tracking a generic activity's arguments, if they were not specifically opted into the event filter mask, to allow the self-profiler to be used in hotter contexts.
This PR tries to offer:
- a way to ensure a closure to record arguments will only be called in that situation, so that potentially costly arguments can still be recorded when needed. With the additional requirement that, if possible, it would offer a way to record non-owned data without adding many `generic_activity_with_arg_{...}`-style methods. This lead to the `generic_activity_with_arg_recorder` single entry-point, and the closure parameter would offer the new methods, able to be executed in a context where costly argument could be created without disturbing the profiled piece of code.
- some facilities/patterns allowing to record more rustc specific data in this situation, without making `rustc_data_structures` where the self-profiler is defined, depend on other rustc crates (causing circular dependencies): in particular, spans. They are quite tricky to turn into strings (if the default `Debug` impl output does not match the context one needs them for), and since I'd also like to avoid the allocation there when arg recording is turned off today, that has turned into another flexibility requirement for the API in this PR (separating the span-specific recording into an extension trait). **edit**: I've removed this from the PR so that it's easier to review, and opened https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95739.
- allow for extensibility in the future: other ways to record arguments, or additional data attached to them could be added in the future (e.g. recording the argument's name as well as its data).
Some areas where I'd love feedback:
- the API and names: the `EventArgRecorder` and its method for example. As well as the verbosity that comes from the increased flexibility.
- if I should convert the existing `generic_activity_with_arg{s}` to just forward to `generic_activity_with_arg_recorder` + `recorder.record_arg` (or remove them altogether ? Probably not): I've used the new API in the simple case I could find of allocating for an arg that may not be recorded, and the rest don't seem costly.
- [x] whether this API should panic if no arguments were recorded by the user-provided closure (like this PR currently does: it seems like an error to use an API dedicated to record arguments but not call the methods to then do so) or if this should just record a generic activity without arguments ?
- whether the `record_arg` function should be `#[inline(always)]`, like the `generic_activity_*` functions ?
As mentioned, r? `@wesleywiser` following our recent discussion.
Implement -Z oom=panic
This PR removes the `#[rustc_allocator_nounwind]` attribute on `alloc_error_handler` which allows it to unwind with a panic instead of always aborting. This is then used to implement `-Z oom=panic` as per RFC 2116 (tracking issue #43596).
Perf and binary size tests show negligible impact.
This commit makes `AdtDef` use `Interned`. Much the commit is tedious
changes to introduce getter functions. The interesting changes are in
`compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/adt.rs`.
Clarify `Layout` interning.
`Layout` is another type that is sometimes interned, sometimes not, and
we always use references to refer to it so we can't take any advantage
of the uniqueness properties for hashing or equality checks.
This commit renames `Layout` as `LayoutS`, and then introduces a new
`Layout` that is a newtype around an `Interned<LayoutS>`. It also
interns more layouts than before. Previously layouts within layouts
(via the `variants` field) were never interned, but now they are. Hence
the lifetime on the new `Layout` type.
Unlike other interned types, these ones are in `rustc_target` instead of
`rustc_middle`. This reflects the existing structure of the code, which
does layout-specific stuff in `rustc_target` while `TyAndLayout` is
generic over the `Ty`, allowing the type-specific stuff to occur in
`rustc_middle`.
The commit also adds a `HashStable` impl for `Interned`, which was
needed. It hashes the contents, unlike the `Hash` impl which hashes the
pointer.

Currently some `Allocation`s are interned, some are not, and it's very
hard to tell at a use point which is which.
This commit introduces `ConstAllocation` for the known-interned ones,
which makes the division much clearer. `ConstAllocation::inner()` is
used to get the underlying `Allocation`.
In some places it's natural to use an `Allocation`, in some it's natural
to use a `ConstAllocation`, and in some places there's no clear choice.
I've tried to make things look as nice as possible, while generally
favouring `ConstAllocation`, which is the type that embodies more
information. This does require quite a few calls to `inner()`.
The commit also tweaks how `PartialOrd` works for `Interned`. The
previous code was too clever by half, building on `T: Ord` to make the
code shorter. That caused problems with deriving `PartialOrd` and `Ord`
for `ConstAllocation`, so I changed it to build on `T: PartialOrd`,
which is slightly more verbose but much more standard and avoided the
problems.
Direct users towards using Rust target feature names in CLI
This PR consists of a couple of changes on how we handle target features.
In particular there is a bug-fix wherein we avoid passing through features that aren't prefixed by `+` or `-` to LLVM. These appear to be causing LLVM to assert, which is pretty poor a behaviour (and also makes it pretty clear we expect feature names to be prefixed).
The other commit, I anticipate to be somewhat more controversial is outputting a warning when users specify a LLVM-specific, or otherwise unknown, feature name on the CLI. In those situations we request users to either replace it with a known Rust feature name (e.g. `bmi` -> `bmi1`) or file a feature request. I've a couple motivations for this: first of all, if users are specifying these features on the command line, I'm pretty confident there is also a need for these features to be usable via `#[cfg(target_feature)]` machinery. And second, we're growing a fair number of backends recently and having ability to provide some sort of unified-ish interface in this place seems pretty useful to me.

Partially move cg_ssa towards using a single builder
Not all codegen backends can handle hopping between blocks well. For example Cranelift requires blocks to be terminated before switching to building a new block. Rust-gpu requires a `RefCell` to allow hopping between blocks and cg_gcc currently has a buggy implementation of hopping between blocks. This PR reduces the amount of cases where cg_ssa switches between blocks before they are finished and mostly fixes the block hopping in cg_gcc. (~~only `scalar_to_backend` doesn't handle it correctly yet in cg_gcc~~ fixed that one.)
`@antoyo` please review the cg_gcc changes.
The field is also renamed from `ident` to `name. In most cases,
we don't actually need the `Span`. A new `ident` method is added
to `VariantDef` and `FieldDef`, which constructs the full `Ident`
using `tcx.def_ident_span()`. This method is used in the cases
where we actually need an `Ident`.
This makes incremental compilation properly track changes
to the `Span`, without all of the invalidations caused by storing
a `Span` directly via an `Ident`.

Use object crate for .rustc metadata generation
We already use the object crate for generating uncompressed .rmeta
metadata object files. This switches the generation of compressed
.rustc object files to use the object crate as well. These have
slightly different requirements in that .rmeta should be completely
excluded from any final compilation artifacts, while .rustc should
be part of shared objects, but not loaded into memory.
The primary motivation for this change is #90326: In LLVM 14, the
current way of setting section flags (and in particular, preventing
the setting of SHF_ALLOC) will no longer work. There are other ways
we could work around this, but switching to the object crate seems
like the most elegant, as we already use it for .rmeta, and as it
makes this independent of the codegen backend. In particular, we
don't need separate handling in codegen_llvm and codegen_gcc.
codegen_cranelift should be able to reuse the implementation as
well, though I have omitted that here, as it is not based on
codegen_ssa.
This change mostly extracts the existing code for .rmeta handling
to allow using it for .rustc as well, and adjusts the codegen
infrastructure to handle the metadata object file separately: We
no longer create a backend-specific module for it, and directly
produce the compiled module instead.
This does not `fix` #90326 by itself yet, as .llvmbc will need to be
handled separately.

Create more accurate debuginfo for vtables.
Before this PR all vtables would have the same name (`"vtable"`) in debuginfo. Now they get an unambiguous name that identifies the implementing type and the trait that is being implemented.
This is only one of several possible improvements:
- This PR describes vtables as arrays of `*const u8` pointers. It would nice to describe them as structs where function pointer is represented by a field with a name indicative of the method it maps to. However, this requires coming up with a naming scheme that avoids clashes between methods with the same name (which is possible if the vtable contains multiple traits).
- The PR does not update the debuginfo we generate for the vtable-pointer field in a fat `dyn` pointer. Right now there does not seem to be an easy way of getting ahold of a vtable-layout without also knowing the concrete self-type of a trait object.
