Error codes are integers, but `String` is used everywhere to represent
them. Gross!
This commit introduces `ErrCode`, an integral newtype for error codes,
replacing `String`. It also introduces a constant for every error code,
e.g. `E0123`, and removes the `error_code!` macro. The constants are
imported wherever used with `use rustc_errors::codes::*`.
With the old code, we have three different ways to specify an error code
at a use point:
```
error_code!(E0123) // macro call
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // bare ident arg to macro call
\#[diag(name, code = "E0123")] // string
struct Diag;
```
With the new code, they all use the `E0123` constant.
```
E0123 // constant
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // constant
\#[diag(name, code = E0123)] // constant
struct Diag;
```
The commit also changes the structure of the error code definitions:
- `rustc_error_codes` now just defines a higher-order macro listing the
used error codes and nothing else.
- Because that's now the only thing in the `rustc_error_codes` crate, I
moved it into the `lib.rs` file and removed the `error_codes.rs` file.
- `rustc_errors` uses that macro to define everything, e.g. the error
code constants and the `DIAGNOSTIC_TABLES`. This is in its new
`codes.rs` file.
This works for most of its call sites. This is nice, because `emit` very
much makes sense as a consuming operation -- indeed,
`DiagnosticBuilderState` exists to ensure no diagnostic is emitted
twice, but it uses runtime checks.
For the small number of call sites where a consuming emit doesn't work,
the commit adds `DiagnosticBuilder::emit_without_consuming`. (This will
be removed in subsequent commits.)
Likewise, `emit_unless` becomes consuming. And `delay_as_bug` becomes
consuming, while `delay_as_bug_without_consuming` is added (which will
also be removed in subsequent commits.)
All this requires significant changes to `DiagnosticBuilder`'s chaining
methods. Currently `DiagnosticBuilder` method chaining uses a
non-consuming `&mut self -> &mut Self` style, which allows chaining to
be used when the chain ends in `emit()`, like so:
```
struct_err(msg).span(span).emit();
```
But it doesn't work when producing a `DiagnosticBuilder` value,
requiring this:
```
let mut err = self.struct_err(msg);
err.span(span);
err
```
This style of chaining won't work with consuming `emit` though. For
that, we need to use to a `self -> Self` style. That also would allow
`DiagnosticBuilder` production to be chained, e.g.:
```
self.struct_err(msg).span(span)
```
However, removing the `&mut self -> &mut Self` style would require that
individual modifications of a `DiagnosticBuilder` go from this:
```
err.span(span);
```
to this:
```
err = err.span(span);
```
There are *many* such places. I have a high tolerance for tedious
refactorings, but even I gave up after a long time trying to convert
them all.
Instead, this commit has it both ways: the existing `&mut self -> Self`
chaining methods are kept, and new `self -> Self` chaining methods are
added, all of which have a `_mv` suffix (short for "move"). Changes to
the existing `forward!` macro lets this happen with very little
additional boilerplate code. I chose to add the suffix to the new
chaining methods rather than the existing ones, because the number of
changes required is much smaller that way.
This doubled chainging is a bit clumsy, but I think it is worthwhile
because it allows a *lot* of good things to subsequently happen. In this
commit, there are many `mut` qualifiers removed in places where
diagnostics are emitted without being modified. In subsequent commits:
- chaining can be used more, making the code more concise;
- more use of chaining also permits the removal of redundant diagnostic
APIs like `struct_err_with_code`, which can be replaced easily with
`struct_err` + `code_mv`;
- `emit_without_diagnostic` can be removed, which simplifies a lot of
machinery, removing the need for `DiagnosticBuilderState`.
Instead of allowing `rustc::potential_query_instability` on the whole
crate we go over each lint and allow it individually if it is safe to
do. Turns out there were no instances of this lint in this crate.
They're not used in `rustc_session`, and `rustc_metadata` is a more
obvious location.
`MetadataLoader` was originally put into `rustc_session` in #41565 to
avoid a dependency on LLVM, but things have changed a lot since then and
that's no longer relevant, e.g. `rustc_codegen_llvm` depends on
`rustc_metadata`.
Currently we always do this:
```
use rustc_fluent_macro::fluent_messages;
...
fluent_messages! { "./example.ftl" }
```
But there is no need, we can just do this everywhere:
```
rustc_fluent_macro::fluent_messages! { "./example.ftl" }
```
which is shorter.
The `fluent_messages!` macro produces uses of
`crate::{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, which means that every crate using
the macro must have this import:
```
use rustc_errors::{DiagnosticMessage, SubdiagnosticMessage};
```
This commit changes the macro to instead use
`rustc_errors::{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, which avoids the need for the
imports.
I find `Compilation::and_then` hard to read. This commit removes it,
simplifying the control flow in `run_compiler`, and reducing the number
of lines of code.
In particular, `list_metadata` and `process_try_link` (renamed `rlink`)
are now only called if the relevant condition is true, rather than that
condition being checked within the function.
Currently we have an inconsistency between the "input" and "no input"
cases:
- no input: `rustc --print=sysroot -Whelp` prints the lint help.
- input: `rustc --print=sysroot -Whelp a.rs` prints the sysroot.
It makes sense to print the lint help in both cases, because that's what
happens with `--help`/`-Zhelp`/`-Chelp`.
In fact, the `describe_lints` in the "input" case happens amazingly
late, after *parsing*. This is because, with plugins, lints used to be
registered much later, when the global context was created. But #117649
moved lint registration much earlier, during session construction.
So this commit moves the `describe_lints` call to a single spot for both
for both the "input" and "no input" cases, as early as possible. This is
still not as early as `--help`/`-Zhelp`/`-Chelp`, because `-Whelp` must
wait until the session is constructed.
`rustc_driver_impl::run_compiler` currently has two
`interface::run_compiler` calls: one for the "no input" case, and one
for the normal case.
This commit merges the former into the latter, which makes the control
flow easier to read and avoids some duplication.
It also makes it clearer that the "no input" case will describe lints
before printing crate info, while the normal case does it in the reverse
order. Possibly a bug?
Yes, its type is `EarlyErrorHandler`, but there is another value of that
type later on in the function called `handler` that is initialized with
`sopts.error_format`. So `default_handler` is a better name because it
clarifies that it is initialized with `ErrorOutputType::default()`.
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.
rustc_log: provide a way to init logging based on the values, not names, of the env vars
Miri wants to affect how rustc does logging. So far this required setting environment variables before calling `rustc_driver::init_rustc_env_logger`. However, `set_var` is a function one should really [avoid calling](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/90308), so this adds the necessary APIs to rustc such that Miri can just pass it the *values* of all the log-relevant environment variables, rather than having to change the global environment.
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.
They've been deprecated for four years.
This commit includes the following changes.
- It eliminates the `rustc_plugin_impl` crate.
- It changes the language used for lints in
`compiler/rustc_driver_impl/src/lib.rs` and
`compiler/rustc_lint/src/context.rs`. External lints are now called
"loaded" lints, rather than "plugins" to avoid confusion with the old
plugins. This only has a tiny effect on the output of `-W help`.
- E0457 and E0498 are no longer used.
- E0463 is narrowed, now only relating to unfound crates, not plugins.
- The `plugin` feature was moved from "active" to "removed".
- It removes the entire plugins chapter from the unstable book.
- It removes quite a few tests, mostly all of those in
`tests/ui-fulldeps/plugin/`.
Closes#29597.
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.
By storing the unparsed values in `Config` and then parsing them within
`run_compiler`, the parsing functions can use the main symbol interner,
and not create their own short-lived interners.
This change also eliminates the need for one `EarlyErrorHandler` in
rustdoc, because parsing errors can be reported by another, slightly
later `EarlyErrorHandler`.
