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.

Autodiff Upstreaming - enzyme frontend
This is an upstream PR for the `autodiff` rustc_builtin_macro that is part of the autodiff feature.
For the full implementation, see: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/129175
**Content:**
It contains a new `#[autodiff(<args>)]` rustc_builtin_macro, as well as a `#[rustc_autodiff]` builtin attribute.
The autodiff macro is applied on function `f` and will expand to a second function `df` (name given by user).
It will add a dummy body to `df` to make sure it type-checks. The body will later be replaced by enzyme on llvm-ir level,
we therefore don't really care about the content. Most of the changes (700 from 1.2k) are in `compiler/rustc_builtin_macros/src/autodiff.rs`, which expand the macro. Nothing except expansion is implemented for now.
I have a fallback implementation for relevant functions in case that rustc should be build without autodiff support. The default for now will be off, although we want to flip it later (once everything landed) to on for nightly. For the sake of CI, I have flipped the defaults, I'll revert this before merging.
**Dummy function Body:**
The first line is an `inline_asm` nop to make inlining less likely (I have additional checks to prevent this in the middle end of rustc. If `f` gets inlined too early, we can't pass it to enzyme and thus can't differentiate it.
If `df` gets inlined too early, the call site will just compute this dummy code instead of the derivatives, a correctness issue. The following black_box lines make sure that none of the input arguments is getting optimized away before we replace the body.
**Motivation:**
The user facing autodiff macro can verify the user input. Then I write it as args to the rustc_attribute, so from here on I can know that these values should be sensible. A rustc_attribute also turned out to be quite nice to attach this information to the corresponding function and carry it till the backend.
This is also just an experiment, I expect to adjust the user facing autodiff macro based on user feedback, to improve usability.
As a simple example of what this will do, we can see this expansion:
From:
```
#[autodiff(df, Reverse, Duplicated, Const, Active)]
pub fn f1(x: &[f64], y: f64) -> f64 {
unimplemented!()
}
```
to
```
#[rustc_autodiff]
#[inline(never)]
pub fn f1(x: &[f64], y: f64) -> f64 {
::core::panicking::panic("not implemented")
}
#[rustc_autodiff(Reverse, Duplicated, Const, Active,)]
#[inline(never)]
pub fn df(x: &[f64], dx: &mut [f64], y: f64, dret: f64) -> f64 {
unsafe { asm!("NOP"); };
::core::hint::black_box(f1(x, y));
::core::hint::black_box((dx, dret));
::core::hint::black_box(f1(x, y))
}
```
I will add a few more tests once I figured out why rustc rebuilds every time I touch a test.

Emit an error for invalid use of the linkage attribute
fixes#128486
Currently, the use of the linkage attribute for Mod, Impl,... is incorrectly permitted. This PR will correct this issue by generating errors, and I've also added some UI test cases for it.
Related: #128552.
- merge error codes
- use attribute name that is incompatible in error message
- add test for conditional incompatible attribute
- add `linkage` to the allowlist
Show `used attribute`'s kind for user when find it isn't applied to a `static` variable.
For example :
```rust
extern "C" {
#[used] //~ ERROR attribute must be applied to a `static` variable
static FOO: i32; // show the kind of this item to help user understand why the error is reported.
}
```
fixes#126789
Suggest removing unused tuple fields if they are the last fields
Fixes#124556
We now check if dead/unused fields are the last fields of the tuple and suggest their removal instead of suggesting them to be changed to `()`.
Previously, `break` inside `gen` blocks and functions
were incorrectly identified to be enclosed by a closure.
This PR fixes it by displaying an appropriate error message
for async blocks, async closures, async functions, gen blocks,
gen closures, gen functions, async gen blocks, async gen closures
and async gen functions.
Note: gen closure and async gen closure are not supported by the
compiler yet but I have added an error message here assuming that
they might be implemented in the future.
Also, fixes grammar in a few places by replacing
`inside of a $coroutine` with `inside a $coroutine`.
This moves some code around and adds some documentation comments to make
it easier to understand what's going on with the entrypoint logic, which
is a bit complicated.
The only change in behavior is consolidating the error messages for
unix_sigpipe to make the code slightly simpler.
In the stabilization attempt of `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]`, a concern
was raised related to using a language attribute for the feature: Long
term, we want `fn lang_start()` to be definable by any crate, not just
libstd. Having a special language attribute in that case becomes
awkward.
So as a first step towards towards the next stabilization attempt, this
PR changes the `#[unix_sigpipe = "..."]` attribute to a compiler flag
`-Zon-broken-pipe=...` to remove that concern, since now the language
is not "contaminated" by this feature.
Another point was also raised, namely that the ui should not leak
**how** it does things, but rather what the **end effect** is. The new
flag uses the proposed naming. This is of course something that can be
iterated on further before stabilization.
When writing a no_std binary, you'll be greeted with nonsensical errors
mentioning lang items like eh_personality and start. That's pretty bad
because it makes you think that you need to define them somewhere! But
oh no, now you're getting the `internal_features` lint telling you that
you shouldn't use them! But you need a no_std binary! What now?
No problem! Writing a no_std binary is super easy. Just use panic=abort
and supply your own platform specific entrypoint symbol (like `main`)
and you're good to go. Would be nice if the compiler told you that,
right?
This makes it so that it does do that.
