`build_session` is passed an `EarlyErrorHandler` and then constructs a
`Handler`. But the `EarlyErrorHandler` is still used for some time after
that.
This commit changes `build_session` so it consumes the passed
`EarlyErrorHandler`, and also drops it as soon as the `Handler` is
built. As a result, `parse_cfg` and `parse_check_cfg` now take a
`Handler` instead of an `EarlyErrorHandler`.
This is intended to be used for Linux kernel RETHUNK builds.
With this commit (optionally backported to Rust 1.73.0), plus a
patched Linux kernel to pass the flag, I get a RETHUNK build with
Rust enabled that is `objtool`-warning-free and is able to boot in
QEMU and load a sample Rust kernel module.

Add -Z llvm_module_flag
Allow adding values to the `!llvm.module.flags` metadata for a generated module. The syntax is
`-Z llvm_module_flag=<name>:<type>:<value>:<behavior>`
Currently only u32 values are supported but the type is required to be specified for forward compatibility. The `behavior` element must match one of the named LLVM metadata behaviors.viors.
This flag is expected to be perma-unstable.
Remove `-Zperf-stats`.
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.

There are no uses of significance in the code base, and various Google
searches for both option names (and variants) found nothing of interest.
@petrochenkov says removing this part (and it's only part) of the
hygiene data is dubious. It doesn't seem that big, so let's just keep it
around.
`parse_cfgspecs` and `parse_check_cfg` run very early, before the main
interner is running. They each use a short-lived interner and convert
all interned symbols to strings in their output data structures. Once
the main interner starts up, these data structures get converted into
new data structures that are identical except with the strings converted
to symbols.
All is not obvious from the current code, which is a mess, particularly
with inconsistent naming that obscures the parallel string/symbol data
structures. This commit clean things up a lot.
- The existing `CheckCfg` type is generic, allowing both
`CheckCfg<String>` and `CheckCfg<Symbol>` forms. This is really
useful, but it defaults to `String`. The commit removes the default so
we have to use `CheckCfg<String>` and `CheckCfg<Symbol>` explicitly,
which makes things clearer.
- Introduces `Cfg`, which is generic over `String` and `Symbol`, similar
to `CheckCfg`.
- Renames some things.
- `parse_cfgspecs` -> `parse_cfg`
- `CfgSpecs` -> `Cfg<String>`, plus it's used in more places, rather
than the underlying `FxHashSet` type.
- `CrateConfig` -> `Cfg<Symbol>`.
- `CrateCheckConfig` -> `CheckCfg<Symbol>`
- Adds some comments explaining the string-to-symbol conversions.
- `to_crate_check_config`, which converts `CheckCfg<String>` to
`CheckCfg<Symbol>`, is inlined and removed and combined with the
overly-general `CheckCfg::map_data` to produce
`CheckCfg::<String>::intern`.
- `build_configuration` now does the `Cfg<String>`-to-`Cfg<Symbol>`
conversion, so callers don't need to, which removes the need for
`to_crate_config`.
The diff for two of the fields in `Config` is a good example of the
improved clarity:
```
- pub crate_cfg: FxHashSet<(String, Option<String>)>,
- pub crate_check_cfg: CheckCfg,
+ pub crate_cfg: Cfg<String>,
+ pub crate_check_cfg: CheckCfg<String>,
```
Compare that with the diff for the corresponding fields in `ParseSess`,
and the relationship to `Config` is much clearer than before:
```
- pub config: CrateConfig,
- pub check_config: CrateCheckConfig,
+ pub config: Cfg<Symbol>,
+ pub check_config: CheckCfg<Symbol>,
```
In `test_edition_parsing`, change the
`build_session_options_and_crate_config` call to
`build_session_options`, because the config isn't used.
That leaves a single call site for
`build_session_options_and_crate_config`, so just inline and remove it.
The value of `-Cinstrument-coverage=` doesn't need to be `Option`
(Extracted from #117199, since this is a purely internal cleanup that can land independently.)
Not using this flag is identical to passing `-Cinstrument-coverage=off`, so there's no need to distinguish between `None` and `Some(Off)`.
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.

Add an (perma-)unstable option to disable vtable vptr
This flag is intended for evaluation of trait upcasting space cost for embedded use cases.
Compared to the approach in #112355, this option provides a way to evaluate end-to-end cost of trait upcasting. Rationale: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/112355#issuecomment-1658207769
## How this flag should be used (after merge)
Build your project with and without `-Zno-trait-vptr` flag. If you are using cargo, set `RUSTFLAGS="-Zno-trait-vptr"` in the environment variable. You probably also want to use `-Zbuild-std` or the binary built may be broken. Save both binaries somewhere.
### Evaluate the space cost
The option has a direct and indirect impact on vtable space usage. Directly, it gets rid of the trait vptr entry needed to store a pointer to a vtable of a supertrait. (IMO) this is a small saving usually. The larger saving usually comes with the indirect saving by eliminating the vtable of the supertrait (and its parent).
Both impacts only affects vtables (notably the number of functions monomorphized should , however where vtable reside can depend on your relocation model. If the relocation model is static, then vtable is rodata (usually stored in Flash/ROM together with text in embedded scenario). If the binary is relocatable, however, the vtable will live in `.data` (more specifically, `.data.rel.ro`), and this will need to reside in RAM (which may be a more scarce resource in some cases), together with dynamic relocation info living in readonly segment.
For evaluation, you should run `size` on both binaries, with and without the flag. `size` would output three columns, `text`, `data`, `bss` and the sum `dec` (and it's hex version). As explained above, both `text` and `data` may change. `bss` shouldn't usually change. It'll be useful to see:
* Percentage change in text + data (indicating required flash/ROM size)
* Percentage change in data + bss (indicating required RAM size)
This reverts commit 4410868798, reversing
changes made to 249595b752.
This causes linker failures with the binutils version used by
cross (#115239), as well as miscompilations when using the mold
linker.
This option tells LLVM to emit relaxable relocation types
R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX/R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX/R_386_GOT32X in applicable cases. True
matches Clang's CMake default since 2020-08 [1] and latest LLVM default[2].
This also works around a GNU ld<2.41 issue[3] when using
general-dynamic/local-dynamic TLS models in `-Z plt=no` mode with latest LLVM.

new unstable option: -Zwrite-long-types-to-disk
This option guards the logic of writing long type names in files and instead using short forms in error messages in rustc_middle/ty/error behind a flag. The main motivation for this change is to disable this behaviour when running ui tests.
This logic can be triggered by running tests in a directory that has a long enough path, e.g. /my/very-long-path/where/rust-codebase/exists/
This means ui tests can fail depending on how long the path to their file is.
Some ui tests actually rely on this behaviour for their assertions, so for those we enable the flag manually.

Prototype: Add unstable `-Z reference-niches` option
MCP: rust-lang/compiler-team#641
Relevant RFC: rust-lang/rfcs#3204
This prototype adds a new `-Z reference-niches` option, controlling the range of valid bit-patterns for reference types (`&T` and `&mut T`), thereby enabling new enum niching opportunities. Like `-Z randomize-layout`, this setting is crate-local; as such, references to built-in types (primitives, tuples, ...) are not affected.
The possible settings are (here, `MAX` denotes the all-1 bit-pattern):
| `-Z reference-niches=` | Valid range |
|:---:|:---:|
| `null` (the default) | `1..=MAX` |
| `size` | `1..=(MAX- size)` |
| `align` | `align..=MAX.align_down_to(align)` |
| `size,align` | `align..=(MAX-size).align_down_to(align)` |
------
This is very WIP, and I'm not sure the approach I've taken here is the best one, but stage 1 tests pass locally; I believe this is in a good enough state to unleash this upon unsuspecting 3rd-party code, and see what breaks.
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...
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.
