Rename `tcx.ensure()` to `tcx.ensure_ok()`, and improve the associated docs
This is all based on my archaeology for https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/182449-t-compiler.2Fhelp/topic/.60TyCtxtEnsure.60.
The main renamings are:
- `tcx.ensure()` → `tcx.ensure_ok()`
- `tcx.ensure_with_value()` → `tcx.ensure_done()`
- Query modifier `ensure_forwards_result_if_red` → `return_result_from_ensure_ok`
Hopefully these new names are a better fit for the *actual* function and purpose of these query call modes.
Implement MIR lowering for unsafe binders
This is the final bit of the unsafe binders puzzle. It implements MIR, CTFE, and codegen for unsafe binders, and enforces that (for now) they are `Copy`. Later on, I'll introduce a new trait that relaxes this requirement to being "is `Copy` or `ManuallyDrop<T>`" which more closely models how we treat union fields.
Namely, wrapping unsafe binders is now `Rvalue::WrapUnsafeBinder`, which acts much like an `Rvalue::Aggregate`. Unwrapping unsafe binders are implemented as a MIR projection `ProjectionElem::UnwrapUnsafeBinder`, which acts much like `ProjectionElem::Field`.

Insert null checks for pointer dereferences when debug assertions are enabled
Similar to how the alignment is already checked, this adds a check
for null pointer dereferences in debug mode. It is implemented similarly
to the alignment check as a `MirPass`.
This inserts checks in the same places as the `CheckAlignment` pass and additionally
also inserts checks for `Borrows`, so code like
```rust
let ptr: *const u32 = std::ptr::null();
let val: &u32 = unsafe { &*ptr };
```
will have a check inserted on dereference. This is done because null references
are UB. The alignment check doesn't cover these places, because in `&(*ptr).field`,
the exact requirement is that the final reference must be aligned. This is something to
consider further enhancements of the alignment check.
For now this is implemented as a separate `MirPass`, to make it easy to disable
this check if necessary.
This is related to a 2025H1 project goal for better UB checks in debug
mode: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-project-goals/pull/177.

Autodiff Upstreaming - rustc_codegen_ssa, rustc_middle
This PR should not be merged until the rustc_codegen_llvm part is merged.
I will also alter it a little based on what get's shaved off from the cg_llvm PR,
and address some of the feedback I received in the other PR (including cleanups).
I am putting it already up to
1) Discuss with `@jieyouxu` if there is more work needed to add tests to this and
2) Pray that there is someone reviewing who can tell me why some of my autodiff invocations get lost.
Re 1: My test require fat-lto. I also modify the compilation pipeline. So if there are any other llvm-ir tests in the same compilation unit then I will likely break them. Luckily there are two groups who currently have the same fat-lto requirement for their GPU code which I have for my autodiff code and both groups have some plans to enable support for thin-lto. Once either that work pans out, I'll copy it over for this feature. I will also work on not changing the optimization pipeline for functions not differentiated, but that will require some thoughts and engineering, so I think it would be good to be able to run the autodiff tests isolated from the rest for now. Can you guide me here please?
For context, here are some of my tests in the samples folder: https://github.com/EnzymeAD/rustbook
Re 2: This is a pretty serious issue, since it effectively prevents publishing libraries making use of autodiff: https://github.com/EnzymeAD/rust/issues/173. For some reason my dummy code persists till the end, so the code which calls autodiff, deletes the dummy, and inserts the code to compute the derivative never gets executed. To me it looks like the rustc_autodiff attribute just get's dropped, but I don't know WHY? Any help would be super appreciated, as rustc queries look a bit voodoo to me.

Fix deduplication mismatches in vtables leading to upcasting unsoundness
We currently have two cases where subtleties in supertraits can trigger disagreements in the vtable layout, e.g. leading to a different vtable layout being accessed at a callsite compared to what was prepared during unsizing. Namely:
### #135315
In this example, we were not normalizing supertraits when preparing vtables. In the example,
```
trait Supertrait<T> {
fn _print_numbers(&self, mem: &[usize; 100]) {
println!("{mem:?}");
}
}
impl<T> Supertrait<T> for () {}
trait Identity {
type Selff;
}
impl<Selff> Identity for Selff {
type Selff = Selff;
}
trait Middle<T>: Supertrait<()> + Supertrait<T> {
fn say_hello(&self, _: &usize) {
println!("Hello!");
}
}
impl<T> Middle<T> for () {}
trait Trait: Middle<<() as Identity>::Selff> {}
impl Trait for () {}
fn main() {
(&() as &dyn Trait as &dyn Middle<()>).say_hello(&0);
}
```
When we prepare `dyn Trait`, we see a supertrait of `Middle<<() as Identity>::Selff>`, which itself has two supertraits `Supertrait<()>` and `Supertrait<<() as Identity>::Selff>`. These two supertraits are identical, but they are not duplicated because we were using structural equality and *not* considering normalization. This leads to a vtable layout with two trait pointers.
When we upcast to `dyn Middle<()>`, those two supertraits are now the same, leading to a vtable layout with only one trait pointer. This leads to an offset error, and we call the wrong method.
### #135316
This one is a bit more interesting, and is the bulk of the changes in this PR. It's a bit similar, except it uses binder equality instead of normalization to make the compiler get confused about two vtable layouts. In the example,
```
trait Supertrait<T> {
fn _print_numbers(&self, mem: &[usize; 100]) {
println!("{mem:?}");
}
}
impl<T> Supertrait<T> for () {}
trait Trait<T, U>: Supertrait<T> + Supertrait<U> {
fn say_hello(&self, _: &usize) {
println!("Hello!");
}
}
impl<T, U> Trait<T, U> for () {}
fn main() {
(&() as &'static dyn for<'a> Trait<&'static (), &'a ()>
as &'static dyn Trait<&'static (), &'static ()>)
.say_hello(&0);
}
```
When we prepare the vtable for `dyn for<'a> Trait<&'static (), &'a ()>`, we currently consider the PolyTraitRef of the vtable as the key for a supertrait. This leads two two supertraits -- `Supertrait<&'static ()>` and `for<'a> Supertrait<&'a ()>`.
However, we can upcast[^up] without offsetting the vtable from `dyn for<'a> Trait<&'static (), &'a ()>` to `dyn Trait<&'static (), &'static ()>`. This is just instantiating the principal trait ref for a specific `'a = 'static`. However, when considering those supertraits, we now have only one distinct supertrait -- `Supertrait<&'static ()>` (which is deduplicated since there are two supertraits with the same substitutions). This leads to similar offsetting issues, leading to the wrong method being called.
[^up]: I say upcast but this is a cast that is allowed on stable, since it's not changing the vtable at all, just instantiating the binder of the principal trait ref for some lifetime.
The solution here is to recognize that a vtable isn't really meaningfully higher ranked, and to just treat a vtable as corresponding to a `TraitRef` so we can do this deduplication more faithfully. That is to say, the vtable for `dyn for<'a> Tr<'a>` and `dyn Tr<'x>` are always identical, since they both would correspond to a set of free regions on an impl... Do note that `Tr<for<'a> fn(&'a ())>` and `Tr<fn(&'static ())>` are still distinct.
----
There's a bit more that can be cleaned up. In codegen, we can stop using `PolyExistentialTraitRef` basically everywhere. We can also fix SMIR to stop storing `PolyExistentialTraitRef` in its vtable allocations.
As for testing, it's difficult to actually turn this into something that can be tested with `rustc_dump_vtable`, since having multiple supertraits that are identical is a recipe for ambiguity errors. Maybe someone else is more creative with getting that attr to work, since the tests I added being run-pass tests is a bit unsatisfying. Miri also doesn't help here, since it doesn't really generate vtables that are offset by an index in the same way as codegen.
r? `@lcnr` for the vibe check? Or reassign, idk. Maybe let's talk about whether this makes sense.
<sup>(I guess an alternative would also be to not do any deduplication of vtable supertraits (or only a really conservative subset) rather than trying to normalize and deduplicate more faithfully here. Not sure if that works and is sufficient tho.)</sup>

Target option to require explicit cpu
Some targets have many different CPUs and no generic CPU that can be used as a default. For these targets, the user needs to explicitly specify a CPU through `-C target-cpu=`.
Add an option for targets and an error message if no CPU is set.
This affects the proposed amdgpu and avr targets.

Lower index bounds checking to `PtrMetadata`, this time with the right fake borrow semantics 😸
Change `Rvalue::RawRef` to take a `RawRefKind` instead of just a `Mutability`. Then introduce `RawRefKind::FakeForPtrMetadata` and use that for lowering index bounds checking to a `PtrMetadata`. This new `RawRefKind::FakeForPtrMetadata` acts like a shallow fake borrow in borrowck, which mimics the semantics of the old `Rvalue::Len` operation we're replacing.
We can then use this `RawRefKind` instead of using a span desugaring hack in CTFE.

- Don't show environment variables. Seeing PATH is almost never useful, and it can be extremely long.
- For .rlibs in the sysroot, replace crate hashes with a `"-*"` string. This will expand to the full crate name when pasted into the shell.
- Move `.rlib` to outside the glob.
- Abbreviate the sysroot path to `<sysroot>` wherever it appears in the arguments.
This also adds an example of the linker output as a run-make test. Currently it only runs on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, because each platform has its own linker arguments. So that it's stable across machines, pass BUILD_ROOT as an argument through compiletest through to run-make tests.
- Only use linker-flavor=gnu-cc if we're actually going to compare the output. It doesn't exist on MacOS.
Add `#[optimize(none)]`

This extends the `optimize` attribute to add `none`, which corresponds to the LLVM `OptimizeNone` attribute.
Not sure if an MCP is required for this, happy to file one if so.
Separate Builder methods from tcx
As part of the autodiff upstreaming we noticed, that it would be nice to have various builder methods available without the TypeContext, which prevents the normal CodegenCx to be passed around between threads.
We introduce a SimpleCx which just owns the llvm module and llvm context, to encapsulate them.
The previous CodegenCx now implements deref and forwards access to the llvm module or context to it's SimpleCx sub-struct. This gives us a bit more flexibility, because now we can pass (or construct) the SimpleCx in locations where we don't have enough information to construct a CodegenCx, or are not able to pass it around due to the tcx lifetimes (and it not implementing send/sync).
This also introduces an SBuilder, similar to the SimpleCx. The SBuilder uses a SimpleCx, whereas the existing Builder uses the larger CodegenCx. I will push updates to make implementations generic (where possible) to be implemented once and work for either of the two. I'll also clean up the leftover code.
`call` is a bit tricky, because it requires a tcx, I probably need to duplicate it after all.

Update our range `assume`s to the format that LLVM prefers
I found out in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/123278#issuecomment-2597440158 that the way I started emitting the `assume`s in #109993 was suboptimal, and as seen in that LLVM issue the way we're doing it -- with two `assume`s sometimes -- can at times lead to CVP/SCCP not realize what's happening because one of them turns into a `ne` instead of conveying a range.
So this updates how it's emitted from
```
assume( x >= LOW );
assume( x <= HIGH );
```
or
```
// (for ranges that wrap the range)
assume( (x <= LOW) | (x >= HIGH) );
```
to
```
assume( (x - LOW) <= (HIGH - LOW) );
```
so that we don't need multiple `icmp`s nor multiple `assume`s for a single value, and both wrappping and non-wrapping ranges emit the same shape.
(And we don't bother emitting the subtraction if `LOW` is zero, since that's trivial for us to check too.)
remove support for the (unstable) #[start] attribute
As explained by `@Noratrieb:`
`#[start]` should be deleted. It's nothing but an accidentally leaked implementation detail that's a not very useful mix between "portable" entrypoint logic and bad abstraction.
I think the way the stable user-facing entrypoint should work (and works today on stable) is pretty simple:
- `std`-using cross-platform programs should use `fn main()`. the compiler, together with `std`, will then ensure that code ends up at `main` (by having a platform-specific entrypoint that gets directed through `lang_start` in `std` to `main` - but that's just an implementation detail)
- `no_std` platform-specific programs should use `#![no_main]` and define their own platform-specific entrypoint symbol with `#[no_mangle]`, like `main`, `_start`, `WinMain` or `my_embedded_platform_wants_to_start_here`. most of them only support a single platform anyways, and need cfg for the different platform's ways of passing arguments or other things *anyways*
`#[start]` is in a super weird position of being neither of those two. It tries to pretend that it's cross-platform, but its signature is a total lie. Those arguments are just stubbed out to zero on ~~Windows~~ wasm, for example. It also only handles the platform-specific entrypoints for a few platforms that are supported by `std`, like Windows or Unix-likes. `my_embedded_platform_wants_to_start_here` can't use it, and neither could a libc-less Linux program.
So we have an attribute that only works in some cases anyways, that has a signature that's a total lie (and a signature that, as I might want to add, has changed recently, and that I definitely would not be comfortable giving *any* stability guarantees on), and where there's a pretty easy way to get things working without it in the first place.
Note that this feature has **not** been RFCed in the first place.
*This comment was posted [in May](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29633#issuecomment-2088596042) and so far nobody spoke up in that issue with a usecase that would require keeping the attribute.*

Rename `BitSet` to `DenseBitSet`
r? `@Mark-Simulacrum` as you requested this in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/134438#discussion_r1890659739 after such a confusion.
This PR renames `BitSet` to `DenseBitSet` to make it less obvious as the go-to solution for bitmap needs, as well as make its representation (and positives/negatives) clearer. It also expands the comments there to hopefully make it clearer when it's not a good fit, with some alternative bitsets types.

add `-Zmin-function-alignment`
tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82232
This PR adds the `-Zmin-function-alignment=<align>` flag, that specifies a minimum alignment for all* functions.
### Motivation
This feature is requested by RfL [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/128830):
> i.e. the equivalents of `-fmin-function-alignment` ([GCC](https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#index-fmin-function-alignment_003dn), Clang does not support it) / `-falign-functions` ([GCC](https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#index-falign-functions), [Clang](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangCommandLineReference.html#cmdoption-clang1-falign-functions)).
>
> For the Linux kernel, the behavior wanted is that of GCC's `-fmin-function-alignment` and Clang's `-falign-functions`, i.e. align all functions, including cold functions.
>
> There is [`feature(fn_align)`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82232), but we need to do it globally.
### Behavior
The `fn_align` feature does not have an RFC. It was decided at the time that it would not be necessary, but maybe we feel differently about that now? In any case, here are the semantics of this flag:
- `-Zmin-function-alignment=<align>` specifies the minimum alignment of all* functions
- the `#[repr(align(<align>))]` attribute can be used to override the function alignment on a per-function basis: when `-Zmin-function-alignment` is specified, the attribute's value is only used when it is higher than the value passed to `-Zmin-function-alignment`.
- the target may decide to use a higher value (e.g. on x86_64 the minimum that LLVM generates is 16)
- The highest supported alignment in rust is `2^29`: I checked a bunch of targets, and they all emit the `.p2align 29` directive for targets that align functions at all (some GPU stuff does not have function alignment).
*: Only with `build-std` would the minimum alignment also be applied to `std` functions.
