Update stdlib to the 2021 edition
progress towards https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88638
I couldnt find a way to run the 2018 style panic tests against 2018 so I just deleted them, maybe theres a way to do it that I missed though?
Add `io::Error::other`
This PR adds a small utility constructor, `io::Error::other`, a shorthand for `io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::Other, err)`, something I find myself writing often.
For some concrete stats, a quick search on [grep.app](https://grep.app) shows that more than half of the uses of `io::Error::new` use `ErrorKind::Other`:
```
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind:: => 3,898 results
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind::Other => 2,186 results
```
Stabilize `iter::zip`
Hello all!
As the tracking issue (#83574) for `iter::zip` completed the final commenting period without any concerns being raised, I hereby submit this stabilization PR on the issue.
As the pull request that introduced the feature (#82917) states, the `iter::zip` function is a shorter way to zip two iterators. As it's generally a quality-of-life/ergonomic improvement, it has been integrated into the codebase without any trouble, and has been
used in many places across the rust compiler and standard library since March without any issues.
For more details, I would refer to `@cuviper's` original PR, or the [function's documentation](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/iter/fn.zip.html).
Stabilize asm! and global_asm!
Tracking issue: #72016
It's been almost 2 years since the original [RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2850) was posted and we're finally ready to stabilize this feature!
The main changes in this PR are:
- Removing `asm!` and `global_asm!` from the prelude as per the decision in #87228.
- Stabilizing the `asm` and `global_asm` features.
- Removing the unstable book pages for `asm` and `global_asm`. The contents are moved to the [reference](https://github.com/rust-lang/reference/pull/1105) and [rust by example](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-by-example/pull/1483).
- All links to these pages have been removed to satisfy the link checker. In a later PR these will be replaced with links to the reference or rust by example.
- Removing the automatic suggestion for using `llvm_asm!` instead of `asm!` if you're still using the old syntax, since it doesn't work anymore with `asm!` no longer being in the prelude. This only affects code that predates the old LLVM-style `asm!` being renamed to `llvm_asm!`.
- Updating `stdarch` and `compiler-builtins`.
- Updating all the tests.
r? `@joshtriplett`
They are also removed from the prelude as per the decision in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87228.
stdarch and compiler-builtins are updated to work with the new, stable
asm! and global_asm! macros.

Update documentation to use `from()` to initialize `HashMap`s and `BTreeMap`s
As of Rust 1.56, `HashMap` and `BTreeMap` both have associated `from()` functions. I think using these in the documentation cleans things up a bit. It allows us to remove some of the `mut`s and avoids the Initialize-Then-Modify anti-pattern.
Implement most of RFC 2930, providing the ReadBuf abstraction
This replaces the `Initializer` abstraction for permitting reading into uninitialized buffers, closing #42788.
This leaves several APIs described in the RFC out of scope for the initial implementation:
* read_buf_vectored
* `ReadBufs`
Closes#42788, by removing the relevant APIs.
Update std::env::temp_dir to use GetTempPath2 on Windows when available.
As a security measure, Windows 11 introduces a new temporary directory API, GetTempPath2.
When the calling process is running as SYSTEM, a separate temporary directory
will be returned inaccessible to non-SYSTEM processes. For non-SYSTEM processes
the behavior will be the same as before.
This can help mitigate against attacks such as this one:
https://medium.com/csis-techblog/cve-2020-1088-yet-another-arbitrary-delete-eop-a00b97d8c3e2
Compatibility risk: Software which relies on temporary files to communicate between SYSTEM and non-SYSTEM
processes may be affected by this change. In many cases, such patterns may be vulnerable to the very
attacks the new API was introduced to harden against.
I'm unclear on the Rust project's tolerance for such change-of-behavior in the standard library. If anything,
this PR is meant to raise awareness of the issue and hopefully start the conversation.
How tested: Taking the example code from the documentation and running it through psexec (from SysInternals) on
Win10 and Win11.
On Win10:
C:\test>psexec -s C:\test\main.exe
<...>
Temporary directory: C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\
On Win11:
C:\test>psexec -s C:\test\main.exe
<...>
Temporary directory: C:\Windows\SystemTemp\
Implement concat_bytes!
This implements the unstable `concat_bytes!` macro, which has tracking issue #87555. It can be used like:
```rust
#![feature(concat_bytes)]
fn main() {
assert_eq!(concat_bytes!(), &[]);
assert_eq!(concat_bytes!(b'A', b"BC", [68, b'E', 70]), b"ABCDEF");
}
```
If strings or characters are used where byte strings or byte characters are required, it suggests adding a `b` prefix. If a number is used outside of an array it suggests arrayifying it. If a boolean is used it suggests replacing it with the numeric value of that number. Doubly nested arrays of bytes are disallowed.
Emphasise that an OsStr[ing] is not necessarily a platform string
Fixes#53261
Since that issue was filed, #56141 added a further clarification to the `OsString` docs. However the ffi docs may still leave the impression that an `OsStr` is in the platform native form. This PR aims to further emphasise that an `OsStr` is not necessarily a platform string.
Add support for riscv64gc-unknown-freebsd
For https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/target-tier-policy.html#tier-3-target-policy:
* A tier 3 target must have a designated developer or developers (the "target maintainers") on record to be CCed when issues arise regarding the target. (The mechanism to track and CC such developers may evolve over time.)
For all Rust targets on FreeBSD, it's [rust@FreeBSD.org](mailto:rust@FreeBSD.org).
* Targets must use naming consistent with any existing targets; for instance, a target for the same CPU or OS as an existing Rust target should use the same name for that CPU or OS. Targets should normally use the same names and naming conventions as used elsewhere in the broader ecosystem beyond Rust (such as in other toolchains), unless they have a very good reason to diverge. Changing the name of a target can be highly disruptive, especially once the target reaches a higher tier, so getting the name right is important even for a tier 3 target.
Done.
* Target names should not introduce undue confusion or ambiguity unless absolutely necessary to maintain ecosystem compatibility. For example, if the name of the target makes people extremely likely to form incorrect beliefs about what it targets, the name should be changed or augmented to disambiguate it.
Done
* Tier 3 targets may have unusual requirements to build or use, but must not create legal issues or impose onerous legal terms for the Rust project or for Rust developers or users.
Done.
* The target must not introduce license incompatibilities.
Done.
* Anything added to the Rust repository must be under the standard Rust license (MIT OR Apache-2.0).
Fine with me.
* The target must not cause the Rust tools or libraries built for any other host (even when supporting cross-compilation to the target) to depend on any new dependency less permissive than the Rust licensing policy. This applies whether the dependency is a Rust crate that would require adding new license exceptions (as specified by the tidy tool in the rust-lang/rust repository), or whether the dependency is a native library or binary. In other words, the introduction of the target must not cause a user installing or running a version of Rust or the Rust tools to be subject to any new license requirements.
Done.
* If the target supports building host tools (such as rustc or cargo), those host tools must not depend on proprietary (non-FOSS) libraries, other than ordinary runtime libraries supplied by the platform and commonly used by other binaries built for the target. For instance, rustc built for the target may depend on a common proprietary C runtime library or console output library, but must not depend on a proprietary code generation library or code optimization library. Rust's license permits such combinations, but the Rust project has no interest in maintaining such combinations within the scope of Rust itself, even at tier 3.
Done.
* Targets should not require proprietary (non-FOSS) components to link a functional binary or library.
Done.
* "onerous" here is an intentionally subjective term. At a minimum, "onerous" legal/licensing terms include but are not limited to: non-disclosure requirements, non-compete requirements, contributor license agreements (CLAs) or equivalent, "non-commercial"/"research-only"/etc terms, requirements conditional on the employer or employment of any particular Rust developers, revocable terms, any requirements that create liability for the Rust project or its developers or users, or any requirements that adversely affect the livelihood or prospects of the Rust project or its developers or users.
Fine with me.
* Neither this policy nor any decisions made regarding targets shall create any binding agreement or estoppel by any party. If any member of an approving Rust team serves as one of the maintainers of a target, or has any legal or employment requirement (explicit or implicit) that might affect their decisions regarding a target, they must recuse themselves from any approval decisions regarding the target's tier status, though they may otherwise participate in discussions.
Ok.
* This requirement does not prevent part or all of this policy from being cited in an explicit contract or work agreement (e.g. to implement or maintain support for a target). This requirement exists to ensure that a developer or team responsible for reviewing and approving a target does not face any legal threats or obligations that would prevent them from freely exercising their judgment in such approval, even if such judgment involves subjective matters or goes beyond the letter of these requirements.
Ok.
* Tier 3 targets should attempt to implement as much of the standard libraries as possible and appropriate (core for most targets, alloc for targets that can support dynamic memory allocation, std for targets with an operating system or equivalent layer of system-provided functionality), but may leave some code unimplemented (either unavailable or stubbed out as appropriate), whether because the target makes it impossible to implement or challenging to implement. The authors of pull requests are not obligated to avoid calling any portions of the standard library on the basis of a tier 3 target not implementing those portions.
std is implemented.
* The target must provide documentation for the Rust community explaining how to build for the target, using cross-compilation if possible. If the target supports running tests (even if they do not pass), the documentation must explain how to run tests for the target, using emulation if possible or dedicated hardware if necessary.
Building is possible the same way as other Rust on FreeBSD targets.
* Tier 3 targets must not impose burden on the authors of pull requests, or other developers in the community, to maintain the target. In particular, do not post comments (automated or manual) on a PR that derail or suggest a block on the PR based on a tier 3 target. Do not send automated messages or notifications (via any medium, including via `@)` to a PR author or others involved with a PR regarding a tier 3 target, unless they have opted into such messages.
Ok.
* Backlinks such as those generated by the issue/PR tracker when linking to an issue or PR are not considered a violation of this policy, within reason. However, such messages (even on a separate repository) must not generate notifications to anyone involved with a PR who has not requested such notifications.
Ok.
* Patches adding or updating tier 3 targets must not break any existing tier 2 or tier 1 target, and must not knowingly break another tier 3 target without approval of either the compiler team or the maintainers of the other tier 3 target.
Ok.
* In particular, this may come up when working on closely related targets, such as variations of the same architecture with different features. Avoid introducing unconditional uses of features that another variation of the target may not have; use conditional compilation or runtime detection, as appropriate, to let each target run code supported by that target.
Ok.
std: Stabilize the `thread_local_const_init` feature
This commit is intended to follow the stabilization disposition of the
FCP that has now finished in #84223. This stabilizes the ability to flag
thread local initializers as `const` expressions which enables the macro
to generate more efficient code for accessing it, notably removing
runtime checks for initialization.
More information can also be found in #84223 as well as the tests where
the feature usage was removed in this PR.
Closes#84223
suppress warning about set_errno being unused on DragonFly
Other targets allow this function to be unused, DragonFly just misses out due to providing a specialization.
This fixes a build error for DragonFly.
Document how `last_os_error` should be used
It should be made clear that the state of the last OS error could change if another function call is made before the call to `Error::last_os_error()`.
Fixes: #53155

Expand `available_parallelism` docs in anticipation of cgroup quota support
The "fixed" in "fixed steady state limits" means to exclude load-dependent resource prioritization
that would calculate to 100% of capacity on an idle system and less capacity on a loaded system.
Additionally I also exclude "system load" since it would be silly to try to identify
other, perhaps higher priority, processes hogging some CPU cores that aren't explicitly excluded
by masks/quotas/whatever.
Refactor weak symbols in std::sys::unix
This makes a few changes to the weak symbol macros in `sys::unix`:
- `dlsym!` is added to keep the functionality for runtime `dlsym`
lookups, like for `__pthread_get_minstack@GLIBC_PRIVATE` that we don't
want to show up in ELF symbol tables.
- `weak!` now uses `#[linkage = "extern_weak"]` symbols, so its runtime
behavior is just a simple null check. This is also used by `syscall!`.
- On non-ELF targets (macos/ios) where that linkage is not known to
behave, `weak!` is just an alias to `dlsym!` for the old behavior.
- `raw_syscall!` is added to always call `libc::syscall` on linux and
android, for cases like `clone3` that have no known libc wrapper.
The new `weak!` linkage does mean that you'll get versioned symbols if
you build with a newer glibc, like `WEAK DEFAULT UND statx@GLIBC_2.28`.
This might seem problematic, but old non-weak symbols can tie the build
to new versions too, like `dlsym@GLIBC_2.34` from their recent library
unification. If you build with an old glibc like `dist-x86_64-linux`
does, you'll still get unversioned `WEAK DEFAULT UND statx`, which may
be resolved based on the runtime glibc.
I also found a few functions that don't need to be weak anymore:
- Android can directly use `ftruncate64`, `pread64`, and `pwrite64`, as
these were added in API 12, and our baseline is API 14.
- Linux can directly use `splice`, added way back in glibc 2.5 and
similarly old musl. Android only added it in API 21 though.

Reduces on [RustyHermit](https://github.com/hermitcore/rusty-hermit) the amount of wasted processor cycles
According to documentation, the listed errnos should only occur
if the `copy_file_range` call cannot be made at all, so the
assert be correct. However, since in practice file system
drivers (incl. FUSE etc.) can return any errno they want, we
should not panic here.
Fixes#91152
Mention std::io::Error::from(ErrorKind) in Error::new() docs
This conversion is not very discoverable for the cases
where an error is required without extra payload.
Simplify `for` loop desugar
Basically two intermediate bindings are inlined. I could have left one intermediate binding in place as this would simplify some diagnostic logic, but I think the difference in that regard would be negligible, so it is better to have a minimal HIR.
For checking that the pattern is irrefutable, I added a special case when the `match` is found to be non-exhaustive.
The reordering of the arms is purely stylistic. I don't *think* there are any perf implications.
```diff
match IntoIterator::into_iter($head) {
mut iter => {
$label: loop {
- let mut __next;
match Iterator::next(&mut iter) {
- Some(val) => __next = val,
None => break,
+ Some($pat) => $block,
}
- let $pat = __next;
- $block
}
}
}
```
The functions are now `unsafe` and they use `Option::unwrap_unchecked` instead of `unwrap_or_0`
`unwrap_or_0` was added in 42357d772b. I guess `unwrap_unchecked` was not available back then.
Given this example:
```rust
pub fn first_char(s: &str) -> Option<char> {
s.chars().next()
}
```
Previously, the following assembly was produced:
```asm

Adds IEEE 754-2019 minimun and maximum functions for f32/f64
IEEE 754-2019 removed the `minNum` (`min` in Rust) and `maxNum` (`max` in Rust) operations in favor of the newly created `minimum` and `maximum` operations due to their [non-associativity](https://grouper.ieee.org/groups/msc/ANSI_IEEE-Std-754-2019/background/minNum_maxNum_Removal_Demotion_v3.pdf) that cannot be fix in a backwards compatible manner. This PR adds `fN::{minimun,maximum}` functions following the new rules.
### IEEE 754-2019 Rules
> **minimum(x, y)** is x if x < y, y if y < x, and a quiet NaN if either operand is a NaN, according to 6.2.
For this operation, −0 compares less than +0. Otherwise (i.e., when x = y and signs are the same)
it is either x or y.
> **maximum(x, y)** is x if x > y, y if y > x, and a quiet NaN if either operand is a NaN, according to 6.2.
For this operation, +0 compares greater than −0. Otherwise (i.e., when x = y and signs are the
same) it is either x or y.
"IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic," in IEEE Std 754-2019 (Revision of IEEE 754-2008) , vol., no., pp.1-84, 22 July 2019, doi: 10.1109/IEEESTD.2019.8766229.
### Implementation
This implementation is inspired by the one in [`glibc` ](90f0ac10a7/math/s_fminimum_template.c) (it self derived from the C2X draft) expect that:
- it doesn't use `copysign` because it's not available in `core` and also because `copysign` is unnecessary (we only want to check the sign, no need to create a new float)
- it also prefer `other > self` instead of `self < other` like IEEE 754-2019 does
I originally tried to implement them [using intrinsics](1d8aa13bc3) but LLVM [error out](https://godbolt.org/z/7sMrxW49a) when trying to lower them to machine intructions, GCC doesn't yet have built-ins for them, only cranelift support them nativelly (as it doesn't support the nativelly the old sementics).

Windows: Resolve `process::Command` program without using the current directory
Currently `std::process::Command` searches many directories for the executable to run, including the current directory. This has lead to a [CVE for `ripgrep`](https://cve.circl.lu/cve/CVE-2021-3013) but presumably other command line utilities could be similarly vulnerable if they run commands. This was [discussed on the internals forum](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/std-command-resolve-to-avoid-security-issues-on-windows/14800). Also discussed was [which directories should be searched](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/windows-where-should-command-new-look-for-executables/15015).
EDIT: This PR originally removed all implicit paths. They've now been added back as laid out in the rest of this comment.
## Old Search Strategy
The old search strategy is [documented here][1]. Additionally Rust adds searching the child's paths (see also #37519). So the full list of paths that were searched was:
1. The directories that are listed in the child's `PATH` environment variable.
2. The directory from which the application loaded.
3. The current directory for the parent process.
4. The 32-bit Windows system directory.
5. The 16-bit Windows system directory.
6. The Windows directory.
7. The directories that are listed in the PATH environment variable.
## New Search Strategy
The new strategy removes the current directory from the searched paths.
1. The directories that are listed in the child's PATH environment variable.
2. The directory from which the application loaded.
3. The 32-bit Windows system directory.
4. The Windows directory.
5. The directories that are listed in the parent's PATH environment variable.
Note that it also removes the 16-bit system directory, mostly because there isn't a function to get it. I do not anticipate this being an issue in modern Windows.
## Impact
Removing the current directory should fix CVE's like the one linked above. However, it's possible some Windows users of affected Rust CLI applications have come to expect the old behaviour.
This change could also affect small Windows-only script-like programs that assumed the current directory would be used. The user would need to use `.\file.exe` instead of the bare application name.
This PR could break tests, especially those that test the exact output of error messages (e.g. Cargo) as this does change the error messages is some cases.

Makes docs for references a little less confusing
- Make clear that the `Pointer` trait is related to formatting
- Make clear that the `Pointer` trait is implemented for references (previously it was confusing to first see that it's implemented and then see it in "expect")
- Make clear that `&T` (shared reference) implements `Send` (if `T: Send + Sync`)
The "fixed" in "fixed steady state limits" means to exclude load-dependent resource prioritization
that would calculate to 100% of capacity on an idle system and less capacity on a loaded system.
Additionally I also exclude "system load" since it would be silly to try to identify
other, perhaps higher priority, processes hogging some CPU cores that aren't explicitly excluded
by masks/quotas/whatever.
std: Tweak expansion of thread-local const
This commit tweaks the expansion of `thread_local!` when combined with a
`const { ... }` value to help ensure that the rules which apply to
`const { ... }` blocks will be the same as when they're stabilized.
Previously with this invocation:
thread_local!(static NAME: Type = const { init_expr });
this would generate (on supporting platforms):
#[thread_local]
static NAME: Type = init_expr;
instead the macro now expands to:
const INIT_EXPR: Type = init_expr;
#[thread_local]
static NAME: Type = INIT_EXPR;
with the hope that because `init_expr` is defined as a `const` item then
it's not accidentally allowing more behavior than if it were put into a
`static`. For example on the stabilization issue [this example][ex] now
gives the same error both ways.

std: Get the standard library compiling for wasm64
This commit goes through and updates various `#[cfg]` as appropriate to
get the wasm64-unknown-unknown target behaving similarly to the
wasm32-unknown-unknown target. Most of this is just updating various
conditions for `target_arch = "wasm32"` to also account for `target_arch
= "wasm64"` where appropriate. This commit also lists `wasm64` as an
allow-listed architecture to not have the `restricted_std` feature
enabled, enabling experimentation with `-Z build-std` externally.
The main goal of this commit is to enable playing around with
`wasm64-unknown-unknown` externally via `-Z build-std` in a way that's
similar to the `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target. These targets are
effectively the same and only differ in their pointer size, but wasm64
is much newer and has much less ecosystem/library support so it'll still
take time to get wasm64 fully-fledged.
Rename WASI's `is_character_device` to `is_char_device`.
Rename WASI's `FileTypeExt::is_character_device` to
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`, for consistency with the Unix
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`.
Also, add a `FileTypeExt::is_socket` function, for consistency with the
Unix `FileTypeExt::is_socket` function.

Stabilize `const_raw_ptr_deref` for `*const T`
This stabilizes dereferencing immutable raw pointers in const contexts.
It does not stabilize `*mut T` dereferencing. This is behind the
same feature gate as mutable references.

A portable abstraction over SIMD has been a major pursuit in recent years for several programming languages. In Rust, `std::arch` offers explicit SIMD acceleration via compiler intrinsics, but it does so at the cost of having to individually maintain each and every single such API, and is almost completely `unsafe` to use. `core::simd` offers safe abstractions that are resolved to the appropriate SIMD instructions by LLVM during compilation, including scalar instructions if that is all that is available.
`core::simd` is enabled by the `#![portable_simd]` nightly feature tracked in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/86656 and is introduced here by pulling in the https://github.com/rust-lang/portable-simd repository as a subtree. We built the repository out-of-tree to allow faster compilation and a stochastic test suite backed by the proptest crate to verify that different targets, features, and optimizations produce the same result, so that using this library does not introduce any surprises. As these tests are technically non-deterministic, and thus can introduce overly interesting Heisenbugs if included in the rustc CI, they are visible in the commit history of the subtree but do nothing here. Some tests **are** introduced via the documentation, but these use deterministic asserts.
There are multiple unsolved problems with the library at the current moment, including a want for better documentation, technical issues with LLVM scalarizing and lowering to libm, room for improvement for the APIs, and so far I have not added the necessary plumbing for allowing the more experimental or libm-dependent APIs to be used. However, I thought it would be prudent to open this for review in its current condition, as it is both usable and it is likely I am going to learn something else needs to be fixed when bors tries this out.
The major types are
- `core::simd::Simd<T, N>`
- `core::simd::Mask<T, N>`
There is also the `LaneCount` struct, which, together with the SimdElement and SupportedLaneCount traits, limit the implementation's maximum support to vectors we know will actually compile and provide supporting logic for bitmasks. I'm hoping to simplify at least some of these out of the way as the compiler and library evolve.
This enables programmers to use a safe alternative to the current
`extern "platform-intrinsics"` API for writing portable SIMD code.
This is `#![feature(portable_simd)]` as tracked in #86656
This makes a few changes to the weak symbol macros in `sys::unix`:
- `dlsym!` is added to keep the functionality for runtime `dlsym`
lookups, like for `__pthread_get_minstack@GLIBC_PRIVATE` that we don't
want to show up in ELF symbol tables.
- `weak!` now uses `#[linkage = "extern_weak"]` symbols, so its runtime
behavior is just a simple null check. This is also used by `syscall!`.
- On non-ELF targets (macos/ios) where that linkage is not known to
behave, `weak!` is just an alias to `dlsym!` for the old behavior.
- `raw_syscall!` is added to always call `libc::syscall` on linux and
android, for cases like `clone3` that have no known libc wrapper.
The new `weak!` linkage does mean that you'll get versioned symbols if
you build with a newer glibc, like `WEAK DEFAULT UND statx@GLIBC_2.28`.
This might seem problematic, but old non-weak symbols can tie the build
to new versions too, like `dlsym@GLIBC_2.34` from their recent library
unification. If you build with an old glibc like `dist-x86_64-linux`
does, you'll still get unversioned `WEAK DEFAULT UND statx`, which may
be resolved based on the runtime glibc.
I also found a few functions that don't need to be weak anymore:
- Android can directly use `ftruncate64`, `pread64`, and `pwrite64`, as
these were added in API 12, and our baseline is API 14.
- Linux can directly use `splice`, added way back in glibc 2.5 and
similarly old musl. Android only added it in API 21 though.
Rename WASI's `FileTypeExt::is_character_device` to
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`, for consistency with the Unix
`FileTypeExt::is_char_device`.
Also, add a `FileTypeExt::is_socket` function, for consistency with the
Unix `FileTypeExt::is_socket` function.

I felt this was the best place to put this (rather than next to
ExitStatusExt). After all, it's a property of the ExitStatus type on
Unix.

exit is (conventionally) a library function, with _exit being the
actual system call.
I have checked the other references and they say "if the process
terminated by calling `exti`". I think despite the slight
imprecision (strictly, it should read iff ... `_exit`), this is
clearer. Anyone who knows about the distinction between `exit` and
`_exit` will not be confused.
`_exit` is the correct traditional name for the system call, despite
Linux calling it `exit_group` or `exit`:
