`hir::Item` has an `ident` field.
- It's always non-empty for these item kinds: `ExternCrate`, `Static`,
`Const`, `Fn`, `Macro`, `Mod`, `TyAlias`, `Enum`, `Struct`, `Union`,
Trait`, TraitAalis`.
- It's always empty for these item kinds: `ForeignMod`, `GlobalAsm`,
`Impl`.
- For `Use`, it is non-empty for `UseKind::Single` and empty for
`UseKind::{Glob,ListStem}`.
All of this is quite non-obvious; the only documentation is a single
comment saying "The name might be a dummy name in case of anonymous
items". Some sites that handle items check for an empty ident, some
don't. This is a very C-like way of doing things, but this is Rust, we
have sum types, we can do this properly and never forget to check for
the exceptional case and never YOLO possibly empty identifiers (or
possibly dummy spans) around and hope that things will work out.
The commit is large but it's mostly obvious plumbing work. Some notable
things.
- A similar transformation makes sense for `ast::Item`, but this is
already a big change. That can be done later.
- Lots of assertions are added to item lowering to ensure that
identifiers are empty/non-empty as expected. These will be removable
when `ast::Item` is done later.
- `ItemKind::Use` doesn't get an `Ident`, but `UseKind::Single` does.
- `lower_use_tree` is significantly simpler. No more confusing `&mut
Ident` to deal with.
- `ItemKind::ident` is a new method, it returns an `Option<Ident>`. It's
used with `unwrap` in a few places; sometimes it's hard to tell
exactly which item kinds might occur. None of these unwraps fail on
the test suite. It's conceivable that some might fail on alternative
input. We can deal with those if/when they happen.
- In `trait_path` the `find_map`/`if let` is replaced with a loop, and
things end up much clearer that way.
- `named_span` no longer checks for an empty name; instead the call site
now checks for a missing identifier if necessary.
- `maybe_inline_local` doesn't need the `glob` argument, it can be
computed in-function from the `renamed` argument.
- `arbitrary_source_item_ordering::check_mod` had a big `if` statement
that was just getting the ident from the item kinds that had one. It
could be mostly replaced by a single call to the new `ItemKind::ident`
method.
- `ItemKind` grows from 56 to 64 bytes, but `Item` stays the same size,
and that's what matters, because `ItemKind` only occurs within `Item`.
Continuing the work from #137350.
Removes the unused methods: `expect_variant`, `expect_field`,
`expect_foreign_item`.
Every method gains a `hir_` prefix.
Continuing the work started in #136466.
Every method gains a `hir_` prefix, though for the ones that already
have a `par_` or `try_par_` prefix I added the `hir_` after that.
First of all, note that `Map` has three different relevant meanings.
- The `intravisit::Map` trait.
- The `map::Map` struct.
- The `NestedFilter::Map` associated type.
The `intravisit::Map` trait is impl'd twice.
- For `!`, where the methods are all unreachable.
- For `map::Map`, which gets HIR stuff from the `TyCtxt`.
As part of getting rid of `map::Map`, this commit changes `impl
intravisit::Map for map::Map` to `impl intravisit::Map for TyCtxt`. It's
fairly straightforward except various things are renamed, because the
existing names would no longer have made sense.
- `trait intravisit::Map` becomes `trait intravisit::HirTyCtxt`, so named
because it gets some HIR stuff from a `TyCtxt`.
- `NestedFilter::Map` assoc type becomes `NestedFilter::MaybeTyCtxt`,
because it's always `!` or `TyCtxt`.
- `Visitor::nested_visit_map` becomes `Visitor::maybe_tcx`.
I deliberately made the new trait and associated type names different to
avoid the old `type Map: Map` situation, which I found confusing. We now
have `type MaybeTyCtxt: HirTyCtxt`.
deprecate `std::intrinsics::transmute` etc, use `std::mem::*` instead
The `rustc_allowed_through_unstable_modules` attribute lets users call `std::mem::transmute` as `std::intrinsics::transmute`. The former is a reexport of the latter, and for a long time we didn't properly check stability for reexports, so making this a hard error now would be a breaking change for little gain. But at the same time, `std::intrinsics::transmute` is not the intended path for this function, so I think it is a good idea to show a deprecation warning when that path is used. This PR implements that, for all the functions in `std::intrinsics` that carry the attribute.
I assume this will need ``@rust-lang/libs-api`` FCP.
`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
Use `Enabled{Lang,Lib}Feature` instead of n-tuples
Instead of passing around e.g. `(gate_name, attr_span, stable_since)` 3-tuples for enabled lang features or `(gate_name, attr_span)` 2-tuples for enabled lib features, use `Enabled{Lang,Lib}Feature` structs with named fields.
Also did some minor code-golfing of involved iterator chains to hopefully make them easier to follow.

Then we can rename the _raw functions to drop their suffix, and instead
explicitly use is_stable_const_fn for the few cases where that is really what
you want.
Fundamentally, we have *three* disjoint categories of functions:
1. const-stable functions
2. private/unstable functions that are meant to be callable from const-stable functions
3. functions that can make use of unstable const features
This PR implements the following system:
- `#[rustc_const_stable]` puts functions in the first category. It may only be applied to `#[stable]` functions.
- `#[rustc_const_unstable]` by default puts functions in the third category. The new attribute `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` can be added to such a function to move it into the second category.
- `const fn` without a const stability marker are in the second category if they are still unstable. They automatically inherit the feature gate for regular calls, it can now also be used for const-calls.
Also, several holes in recursive const stability checking are being closed.
There's still one potential hole that is hard to avoid, which is when MIR
building automatically inserts calls to a particular function in stable
functions -- which happens in the panic machinery. Those need to *not* be
`rustc_const_unstable` (or manually get a `rustc_const_stable_indirect`) to be
sure they follow recursive const stability. But that's a fairly rare and special
case so IMO it's fine.
The net effect of this is that a `#[unstable]` or unmarked function can be
constified simply by marking it as `const fn`, and it will then be
const-callable from stable `const fn` and subject to recursive const stability
requirements. If it is publicly reachable (which implies it cannot be unmarked),
it will be const-unstable under the same feature gate. Only if the function ever
becomes `#[stable]` does it need a `#[rustc_const_unstable]` or
`#[rustc_const_stable]` marker to decide if this should also imply
const-stability.
Adding `#[rustc_const_unstable]` is only needed for (a) functions that need to
use unstable const lang features (including intrinsics), or (b) `#[stable]`
functions that are not yet intended to be const-stable. Adding
`#[rustc_const_stable]` is only needed for functions that are actually meant to
be directly callable from stable const code. `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` is
used to mark intrinsics as const-callable and for `#[rustc_const_unstable]`
functions that are actually called from other, exposed-on-stable `const fn`. No
other attributes are required.
Remove more `#[macro_use] extern crate tracing`
Because explicit importing of macros via use items is nicer (more standard and readable) than implicit importing via `#[macro_use]`. Continuing the work from #124511 and #124914.
