In PR 90877 T-lang decided not to remove `intrinsics::pref_align_of`.
However, the intrinsic and its supporting code
1. is a nightly feature, so can be removed at compiler/libs discretion
2. requires considerable effort in the compiler to support, as it
necessarily complicates every single site reasoning about alignment
3. has been justified based on relevance to codegen, but it is only a
requirement for C++ (not C, not Rust) stack frame layout for AIX,
in ways Rust would not consider even with increased C++ interop
4. is only used by rustc to overalign some globals, not correctness
5. can be adequately replaced by other rules for globals, as it mostly
affects alignments for a few types under 16 bytes of alignment
6. has only one clear benefactor: automating C -> Rust translation
for GNU extensions like `__alignof`
7. such code was likely intended to be `alignof` or `_Alignof`,
because the GNU extension is a "false friend" of the C keyword,
which makes the choice to support such a mapping very questionable
8. makes it easy to do incorrect codegen in the compiler by its mere
presence as usual Rust rules of alignment (e.g. `size == align * N`)
do not hold with preferred alignment
The implementation is clearly damaging the code quality of the compiler.
Thus it is within the compiler team's purview to simply rip it out.
If T-lang wishes to have this intrinsic restored for c2rust's benefit,
it would have to use a radically different implementation that somehow
does not cause internal incorrectness.
Until then, remove the intrinsic and its supporting code, as one tool
and an ill-considered GCC extension cannot justify risking correctness.
Because we touch a fair amount of the compiler to change this at all,
and unfortunately the duplication of AbiAndPrefAlign is deep-rooted,
we keep an "AbiAlign" type which we can wean code off later.
Replace ad-hoc ABI "adjustments" with an `AbiMap` to `CanonAbi`
Our `conv_from_spec_abi`, `adjust_abi`, and `is_abi_supported` combine to give us a very confusing way of reasoning about what _actual_ calling convention we want to lower our code to and whether we want to compile the resulting code at all. Instead of leaving this code as a miniature adventure game in which someone tries to combine stateful mutations into a Rube Goldberg machine that will let them escape the maze and arrive at the promised land of codegen, we let `AbiMap` devour this complexity. Once you have an `AbiMap`, you can answer which `ExternAbi`s will lower to what `CanonAbi`s (and whether they will lower at all).
Removed:
- `conv_from_spec_abi` replaced by `AbiMap::canonize_abi`
- `adjust_abi` replaced by same
- `Conv::PreserveAll` as unused
- `Conv::Cold` as unused
- `enum Conv` replaced by `enum CanonAbi`
target-spec.json changes:
- If you have a target-spec.json then now your "entry-abi" key will be specified in terms of one of the `"{abi}"` strings Rust recognizes, e.g.
```json
"entry-abi": "C",
"entry-abi": "win64",
"entry-abi": "aapcs",
```
Merge `compiler-builtins` as a Josh subtree
Use the Josh [1] utility to add `compiler-builtins` as a subtree, which
will allow us to stop using crates.io for updates. This is intended to
help resolve some problems when unstable features change and require
code changes in `compiler-builtins`, which sometimes gets trapped in a
bootstrap cycle.
This was done using `josh-filter` built from the r24.10.04 tag:
git fetch https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-builtins.git 233434412fe7eced8f1ddbfeddabef1d55e493bd
josh-filter ":prefix=library/compiler-builtins" FETCH_HEAD
git merge --allow-unrelated FILTERED_HEAD
The HEAD in the `compiler-builtins` repository is 233434412f ("fix an if
statement that can be collapsed").

Implement the internal feature `cfg_target_has_reliable_f16_f128`
Support for `f16` and `f128` is varied across targets, backends, and backend versions. Eventually we would like to reach a point where all backends support these approximately equally, but until then we have to work around some of these nuances of support being observable.
Introduce the `cfg_target_has_reliable_f16_f128` internal feature, which provides the following new configuration gates:
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f16)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f16_math)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f128)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f128_math)`
`reliable_f16` and `reliable_f128` indicate that basic arithmetic for the type works correctly. The `_math` versions indicate that anything relying on `libm` works correctly, since sometimes this hits a separate class of codegen bugs.
These options match configuration set by the build script at [1]. The logic for LLVM support is duplicated as-is from the same script. There are a few possible updates that will come as a follow up.
The config introduced here is not planned to ever become stable, it is only intended to replace the build scripts for `std` tests and `compiler-builtins` that don't have any way to configure based on the codegen backend.

make abi_unsupported_vector_types a hard error
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/116558 by completing the transition; see that issue for context. The lint was introduced with Rust 1.84 and this has been shown in cargo's future breakage reports since Rust 1.85, released 6 weeks ago, and so far we got 0 complaints by users. There's not even a backlink on the tracking issue. We did a [crater run](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/127731#issuecomment-2286736295) when the lint was originally added and found no breakage. So I don't think we need another crater run now, but I can do one if the team prefers that.
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131800 is done, so for most current targets (in particular, all tier 1 and tier 2 targets) we have the information to implement this check (modulo the targets where we don't properly support SIMD vectors yet, see the sub-issues of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/116558). If a new target gets added in the future, it will default to reject all SIMD vector types until proper information is added, which is the default we want.
This will need approval by for `@rust-lang/lang.` Cc `@workingjubilee` `@veluca93`

`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.
Prepend temp files with per-invocation random string to avoid temp filename conflicts
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/139407 uncovered a very subtle unsoundness with incremental codegen, failing compilation sessions (due to assembler errors), and the "prefer hard linking over copying files" strategy we use in the compiler for file management.
Specifically, imagine we're building a single file 3 times, all with `-Csave-temps -Cincremental=...`. Let's call the object file we're building for the codegen unit for `main` "`XXX.o`" just for clarity since it's probably some gigantic hash name:
```
#[inline(never)]
#[cfg(any(rpass1, rpass3))]
fn a() -> i32 {
0
}
#[cfg(any(cfail2))]
fn a() -> i32 {
1
}
fn main() {
evil::evil();
assert_eq!(a(), 0);
}
mod evil {
#[cfg(any(rpass1, rpass3))]
pub fn evil() {
unsafe {
std::arch::asm!("/* */");
}
}
#[cfg(any(cfail2))]
pub fn evil() {
unsafe {
std::arch::asm!("missing");
}
}
}
```
Session 1 (`rpass1`):
* Type-check, borrow-check, etc.
* Serialize the dep graph to the incremental working directory `.../s-...-working/`.
* Codegen object file to a temp file `XXX.rcgu.o` which is spit out in the cwd.
* Hard-link[^1] `XXX.rcgu.o` to the incremental working directory `.../s-...-working/XXX.o`.
* Save-temps option means we don't delete `XXX.rgcu.o`.
* Link the binary and stuff.
* Finalize[^2] the working incremental session by renaming `.../s-...-working` to ` s-...-asjkdhsjakd` (some other finalized incr comp session dir name).
Session 2 (`cfail2`):
* Load artifacts from the previous *finalized* incremental session, namely the dep graph.
* Type-check, borrow-check, etc. since the file has changed, so most dep graph nodes are red.
* Serialize the dep graph to the incremental working directory `.../s-...-working/`.
* Codegen object file to a temp file `XXX.rcgu.o`. **HERE IS THE PROBLEM**: The hard-link is still set up to point to the inode from `XXX.o` from the first session, so this also modifies the `XXX.o` in the previous finalized session directory.
* Codegen emits an error b/c `missing` is not an instruction, so we abort before finalizing the incremental session. Specifically, this means that the *previous* session is the last finalized session.
Session 3 (`rpass3`):
* Load artifacts from the previous *finalized* incremental session, namely the dep graph. NOTE that this is from session 1.
* All the dep graph nodes are green since we are basically replaying session 1.
* codegen object file `XXX.o`, which is detected as *reused* from session 1 since dep nodes were green. That means we **reuse** `XXX.o` which had been dirtied from session 2.
* Link the binary and stuff.
This results in a binary which reuses some of the build artifacts from session 2, but thinks it's from session 1.
At this point, I hope it's clear to see that the incremental results from session 1 were dirtied from session 2, but we reuse them as if session 1 was the previous (finalized) incremental session we ran. This is at best really buggy, and at worst **unsound**.
This isn't limited to `-C save-temps`, since there are other combinations of flags that may keep around temporary files (hard linked) in the working directory (like `-C debuginfo=1 -C split-debuginfo=unpacked` on darwin, for example).
---
This PR implements a fix which is to prepend temp filenames with a random string that is generated per invocation of rustc. This string is not *deterministic*, but temporary files are transient anyways, so I don't believe this is a problem.
That means that temp files are now something like... `{crate-name}.{cgu}.{invocation_temp}.rcgu.o`, where `{invocation_temp}` is the new temporary string we generate per invocation of rustc.

It bugs me when variables of type `Ident` are called `name`. It leads to
silly things like `name.name`. `Ident` variables should be called
`ident`, and `name` should be used for variables of type `Symbol`.
This commit improves things by by doing `s/name/ident/` on a bunch of
`Ident` variables. Not all of them, but a decent chunk.
Rename `is_like_osx` to `is_like_darwin`
Replace `is_like_osx` with `is_like_darwin`, which more closely describes reality (OS X is the pre-2016 name for macOS, and is by now quite outdated; Darwin is the overall name for the OS underlying Apple's macOS, iOS, etc.).

Avoid no-op unlink+link dances in incr comp
Incremental compilation scales quite poorly with the number of CGUs. This PR improves one reason for that.
The incr comp process hard-links all the files from an old session into a new one, then it runs the backend, which may just hard-link the new session files into the output directory. Then codegen hard-links all the output files back to the new session directory.
This PR (perhaps unimaginatively) fixes the silliness that ensues in the last step. The old `link_or_copy` implementation would be passed pairs of paths which are already the same inode, then it would blindly delete the destination and re-create the hard-link that it just deleted. This PR lets us skip both those operations. We don't skip the other two hard-links.

Remove `#[cfg(not(test))]` gates in `core`
These gates are unnecessary now that unit tests for `core` are in a separate package, `coretests`, instead of in the same files as the source code. They previously prevented the two `core` versions from conflicting with each other.
