This was made possible by the removal of plugin support, which
simplified lint store creation.
This simplifies the places in rustc and rustdoc that call
`describe_lints`, which are early on. The lint store is now built before
those places, so they don't have to create their own lint store for
temporary use, they can just use the main one.
The included measurements have varied over the years. At one point there
were quite a few more, but #49558 deleted a lot that were no longer
used. Today there's just four, and it's a motley collection that doesn't
seem particularly valuable.
I think it has been well and truly subsumed by self-profiling, which
collects way more data.
Most notably, this commit changes the `pub use crate::*;` in that file
to `use crate::*;`. This requires a lot of `use` items in other crates
to be adjusted, because everything defined within `rustc_span::*` was
also available via `rustc_span::source_map::*`, which is bizarre.
The commit also removes `SourceMap::span_to_relative_line_string`, which
is unused.
Stop telling people to submit bugs for internal feature ICEs
This keeps track of usage of internal features, and changes the message to instead tell them that using internal features is not supported.
I thought about several ways to do this but now used the explicit threading of an `Arc<AtomicBool>` through `Session`. This is not exactly incremental-safe, but this is fine, as this is set during macro expansion, which is pre-incremental, and also only affects the output of ICEs, at which point incremental correctness doesn't matter much anyways.

[breaking change] Validate crate name in `--extern` [MCP 650]
Reject non-ASCII-identifier crate names passed to the CLI option `--extern` (`rustc`, `rustdoc`).
Implements [MCP 650](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/650) (except that we only allow ASCII identifiers not arbitrary Rust identifiers).
Fixes#113035.
[As mentioned on Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/233931-t-compiler.2Fmajor-changes/topic/Disallow.20non-identifier-valid.20--extern.20cr.E2.80.A6.20compiler-team.23650/near/376826988), doing a crater run probably doesn't make sense since it wouldn't yield anything. Most users don't interact with `rustc` directly but only ever through Cargo which always passes a valid crate name to `--extern` when it invokes `rustc` and `rustdoc`. In any case, the user wouldn't be able to use such a crate name in the source code anyway.
Note that I'm not using [`rustc_session::output::validate_crate_name`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_session/output/fn.validate_crate_name.html) (used for `--crate-name` and `#![crate_name]`) since the latter doesn't reject non-ASCII crate names and ones that start with a digit.
As an aside, I've also thought about getting rid of `validate_crate_name` entirely in a separate PR (with another MCP) in favor of `is_ascii_ident` to reject more weird `--crate-name`s, `#![crate_name]`s and file names but I think that would lead to a lot of actual breakage, namely because of file names starting with a digit. In `tests/ui` 9 tests would be impacted for example.

CFI: Fix error compiling core with LLVM CFI enabled
Fix#90546 by filtering out global value function pointer types from the type tests, and adding the LowerTypeTests pass to the rustc LTO optimization pipelines.

Use SHA256 source file checksums by default when targeting MSVC
Currently, when targeting Windows (more specifically, the MSVC toolchain), Rust will use SHA1 source file checksums by default. SHA1 has been superseded by SHA256, and Microsoft recommends migrating to SHA256.
As of Visual Studio 2022, MSVC defaults to SHA256. This change aligns Rust and MSVC.
LLVM can already use SHA256 checksums, so this does not require any change to LLVM.

Resurrect: rustc_llvm: Add a -Z `print-codegen-stats` option to expose LLVM statistics.
This resurrects PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000, which has sat idle for a while. And I want to see the effect of stack-move optimizations on LLVM (like https://reviews.llvm.org/D153453) :).
I have applied the changes requested by `@oli-obk` and `@nagisa` https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000#discussion_r1014625377 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000#discussion_r1014642482 in the latest commits.

LLVM has a neat [statistics](https://llvm.org/docs/ProgrammersManual.html#the-statistic-class-stats-option) feature that tracks how often optimizations kick in. It's very handy for optimization work. Since we expose the LLVM pass timings, I thought it made sense to expose the LLVM statistics too.

(Edit: fix broken link
(Edit2: fix segmentation fault and use malloc
If `rustc` is built with
```toml
[llvm]
assertions = true
```
Then you can see like
```
rustc +stage1 -Z print-codegen-stats -C opt-level=3 tmp.rs
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
... Statistics Collected ...
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
3 aa - Number of MayAlias results
193 aa - Number of MustAlias results
531 aa - Number of NoAlias results
...
```
And the current default build emits only
```
$ rustc +stage1 -Z print-codegen-stats -C opt-level=3 tmp.rs
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
... Statistics Collected ...
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
$
```
This might be better to emit the message to tell assertion flag necessity, but now I can't find how to do that...
On nightly, dump ICE backtraces to disk
Implement rust-lang/compiler-team#578.
When an ICE is encountered on nightly releases, the new rustc panic handler will also write the contents of the backtrace to disk. If any `delay_span_bug`s are encountered, their backtrace is also added to the file. The platform and rustc version will also be collected.

The current behavior will *always* write to disk on nightly builds, regardless of whether the backtrace is printed to the terminal, unless the environment variable `RUSTC_ICE_DISK_DUMP` is set to `0`. This is a compromise and can be changed.

Per the discussion in #106380 plt=no isn't a great default, and
rust-lang/compiler-team#581 decided that the default should be PLT=yes
for everything except x86_64. Not everyone agrees about the x86_64 part
of this change, but this at least is an improvement in the state of
things without changing the x86_64 situation, so I've attempted making
this change in the name of not letting the perfect be the enemy of the
good.
Because tiny CGUs make compilation less efficient *and* result in worse
generated code.
We don't do this when the number of CGUs is explicitly given, because
there are times when the requested number is very important, as
described in some comments within the commit. So the commit also
introduces a `CodegenUnits` type that distinguishes between default
values and user-specified values.
This change has a roughly neutral effect on walltimes across the
rustc-perf benchmarks; there are some speedups and some slowdowns. But
it has significant wins for most other metrics on numerous benchmarks,
including instruction counts, cycles, binary size, and max-rss. It also
reduces parallelism, which is good for reducing jobserver competition
when multiple rustc processes are running at the same time. It's smaller
benchmarks that benefit the most; larger benchmarks already have CGUs
that are all larger than the minimum size.
Here are some example before/after CGU sizes for opt builds.
- html5ever
- CGUs: 16, mean size: 1196.1, sizes: [3908, 2992, 1706, 1652, 1572,
1136, 1045, 948, 946, 938, 579, 471, 443, 327, 286, 189]
- CGUs: 4, mean size: 4396.0, sizes: [6706, 3908, 3490, 3480]
- libc
- CGUs: 12, mean size: 35.3, sizes: [163, 93, 58, 53, 37, 8, 2 (x6)]
- CGUs: 1, mean size: 424.0, sizes: [424]
- tt-muncher
- CGUs: 5, mean size: 1819.4, sizes: [8508, 350, 198, 34, 7]
- CGUs: 1, mean size: 9075.0, sizes: [9075]
Note that CGUs of size 100,000+ aren't unusual in larger programs.
Write to stdout if `-` is given as output file
With this PR, if `-o -` or `--emit KIND=-` is provided, output will be written to stdout instead. Binary output (those of type `obj`, `llvm-bc`, `link` and `metadata`) being written this way will result in an error unless stdout is not a tty. Multiple output types going to stdout will trigger an error too, as they will all be mixded together.
This implements https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/431
The idea behind the changes is to introduce an `OutFileName` enum that represents the output - be it a real path or stdout - and to use this enum along the code paths that handle different output types.

Replace const eval limit by a lint and add an exponential backoff warning
The lint triggers at the first power of 2 that comes after 1 million function calls or traversed back-edges (takes less than a second on usual programs). After the first emission, an unsilenceable warning is repeated at every following power of 2 terminators, causing it to get reported less and less the longer the evaluation runs.

very minor cleanups
- add `must_use` to `early_error_no_abort`
this was already being used at its only callsite, but this ensures that new code remembers to use it if it's called in the future. found this while investigating https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/110090.
- remove outdated and incorrect comment in `builder.rs`. `doc_rust_lang_org_channel` doesn't exist in rustdoc, it gets it from an env var instead: b275d2c30b/src/librustdoc/clean/utils.rs (L569-L573)
Only depend on CFG_VERSION in rustc_interface
This avoids having to rebuild the whole compiler on each commit when `omit-git-hash = false`.
cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76720 - this won't fix it, and I'm not suggesting we turn this on by default, but it will make it less painful for people who do have `omit-git-hash` on as a workaround.

Error message all end up passing into a function as an `impl
Into<{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage>`. If an error message is creatd as
`&format("...")` that means we allocate a string (in the `format!`
call), then take a reference, and then clone (allocating again) the
reference to produce the `{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, which is silly.
This commit removes the leading `&` from a lot of these cases. This
means the original `String` is moved into the
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, avoiding the double allocations. This
requires changing some function argument types from `&str` to `String`
(when all arguments are `String`) or `impl
Into<{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage>` (when some arguments are `String` and
some are `&str`).
Add cross-language LLVM CFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds cross-language LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support to the Rust compiler by adding the `-Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers` option to be used with Clang `-fsanitize-cfi-icall-normalize-integers` for normalizing integer types (see https://reviews.llvm.org/D139395).
It provides 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). For more information about LLVM CFI and cross-language LLVM CFI support for the Rust compiler, see design document in the tracking issue #89653.
Cross-language LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and -Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers, and requires proper (i.e., non-rustc) LTO (i.e., -Clinker-plugin-lto).
