Upgrade to LLVM 13
Work in progress update to LLVM 13. Main changes:
* InlineAsm diagnostics reported using SrcMgr diagnostic kind are now handled. Previously these used a separate diag handler.
* Codegen tests are updated for additional attributes.
* Some data layouts have changed.
* Switch `#[used]` attribute from `llvm.used` to `llvm.compiler.used` to avoid SHF_GNU_RETAIN flag introduced in https://reviews.llvm.org/D97448, which appears to trigger a bug in older versions of gold.
* Set `LLVM_INCLUDE_TESTS=OFF` to avoid Python 3.6 requirement.
Upstream issues:
* ~~https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51210 (InlineAsm diagnostic reporting for module asm)~~ Fixed by 1558bb80c0.
* ~~https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51476 (Miscompile on AArch64 due to incorrect comparison elimination)~~ Fixed by 81b106584f.
* https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51207 (Can't set custom section flags anymore). Problematic change reverted in our fork, https://reviews.llvm.org/D107216 posted for upstream revert.
* https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51211 (Regression in codegen for #83623). This is an optimization regression that we may likely have to eat for this release. The fix for #83623 was based on an incorrect premise, and this needs to be properly addressed in the MergeICmps pass.
The [compile-time impact](https://perf.rust-lang.org/compare.html?start=ef9549b6c0efb7525c9b012148689c8d070f9bc0&end=0983094463497eec22d550dad25576a894687002) is mixed, but quite positive as LLVM upgrades go.
The LLVM 13 final release is scheduled for Sep 21st. The current nightly is scheduled for stable release on Oct 21st.

This matches Clang's behavior:
973cb2c326/clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp (L1038-L1040)
Even if `dso_local` were properly supported in this way on macOS, it seems
incorrect to add this annotation as liberally as we did. The `dso_local`
annotation is for symbols that ultimately end up in the same linkage unit, but
we were adding this annotation even for `static` values inside `extern` blocks
marked with `#[link(type="framework")]`, which should be considered dynamically
linked. Note that Clang likewise avoids emitting `dso_local` for `dllimport`
symbols:
973cb2c326/clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp (L1005-L1007)
This issue caused breakage in the `ring` crate, which links to a symbol defined
in `Security.framework` that ultimately resolves to address `0x0`:
b94d61e044/src/rand.rs (L390)
For this symbol, the use of `dso_local` causes LLVM to emit a relocation of
type `X86_64_RELOC_SIGNED`, which is a 32-bit signed PC-relative offset. If the
binary is large enough, `0x0` might be out of range, and the link will fail.
Avoiding `dso_local` causes LLVM to use the GOT instead, emitting a relocation
of type `X86_64_RELOC_GOT_LOAD`, which will properly handle the large offset
and cause the link to succeed.
As a side note, the static relocation model is effectively deprecated for
security reasons on macOS, as it prohibits PIE. It's also completely
unsupported on Apple Silicon, so I don't think it's worth going to the effort
of properly supporting this model on that platform.
The TargetMachine may be referencing data in the context. In
particular, at least the GlobalISel instruction selector stored
in the TM may reference a TrackedMDNode DebugLoc that destruction
of the TargetMachine will try to untrack.
The #[used] attribute explicitly only requires symbols to be
retained in object files, but allows the linker to drop them
if dead. This corresponds to llvm.compiler.used semantics.
The motivation to change this *now* is that https://reviews.llvm.org/D97448
starts emitting #[used] symbols into unique sections with
SHF_GNU_RETAIN flag. This triggers a bug in some version of gold,
resulting in the ARGV_INIT_ARRAY symbol part of the .init_array
section to be incorrectly placed.
Fixes#85019
A `SourceFile` created during compilation may have a relative
path (e.g. if rustc itself is invoked with a relative path).
When we write out crate metadata, we convert all relative paths
to absolute paths using the current working direction.
However, the working directory is not included in the crate hash.
This means that the crate metadata can change while the crate
hash remains the same. Among other problems, this can cause a
fingerprint mismatch ICE, since incremental compilation uses
the crate metadata hash to determine if a foreign query is green.
This commit moves the field holding the working directory from
`Session` to `Options`, including it as part of the crate hash.

Name the captured upvars for closures/generators in debuginfo
Previously, debuggers print closures as something like
```

```
The pointer actually references to an upvar. It is not very obvious, especially for beginners.
It's because upvars don't have names before, as they are packed into a tuple. This PR names the upvars, so we can expect to see something like

r? `@nagisa` I suppose
The new implementation allows some `memcpy`s to be optimized away,
so the uninit value in ui/sanitize/memory.rs is constructed directly
onto the return place. Therefore the sanitizer now says that the
value is allocated by `main` rather than `random`.
LLVM codegen: Don't emit zero-sized padding for fields
Currently padding is emitted before fields of a struct and at the end of the struct regardless of the ABI. Even if no padding is required zero-sized padding fields are emitted. This is not useful and - more importantly - it make it impossible to generate the exact vector types that LLVM expects for certain ARM SIMD intrinsics. This change should unblock the implementation of many ARM intrinsics using the `unadjusted` ABI, see https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/issues/1143#issuecomment-827404092.
This is a proof of concept only because the field lookup now takes O(number of fields) time compared to O(1) before since it recalculates the mapping at every lookup. I would like to find out how big the performance impact actually is before implementing caching or restricting this behavior to the `unadjusted` ABI.

([Discussion on internals](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/feature-request-add-a-way-in-rustc-for-generating-struct-type-llvm-ir-without-paddings/15007))
The indexes into the VaListImpl struct used on aarch64 ABI (not macos/ios) are hard-coded which is brittle so we replace them with the usual lookup.
The varargs ffi is tested in ui/abi/variadic-ffi.rs on aarch64 Linux.
Rather than relying on `getPointerElementType()` from LLVM function
pointers, we now pass the function type explicitly when building `call`
or `invoke` instructions.
emit_aapcs_va_arg() emits hardcoded field indexes to access the
aarch64-specific `VaListImpl` struct. Due to the removed padding
those indexes have changed.
LLVM codegen: Don't emit zero-sized padding for whiles because that has no use and makes it impossible to generate the return types that LLVM expects for certain ARM SIMD intrinsics.
rfc3052 followup: Remove authors field from Cargo manifests
Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information for contributors, we may as well
remove it from crates in this repo.

Use existing declaration of rust_eh_personality

CTFE/Miri engine Pointer type overhaul
This fixes the long-standing problem that we are using `Scalar` as a type to represent pointers that might be integer values (since they point to a ZST). The main problem is that with int-to-ptr casts, there are multiple ways to represent the same pointer as a `Scalar` and it is unclear if "normalization" (i.e., the cast) already happened or not. This leads to ugly methods like `force_mplace_ptr` and `force_op_ptr`.
Another problem this solves is that in Miri, it would make a lot more sense to have the `Pointer::offset` field represent the full absolute address (instead of being relative to the `AllocId`). This means we can do ptr-to-int casts without access to any machine state, and it means that the overflow checks on pointer arithmetic are (finally!) accurate.
To solve this, the `Pointer` type is made entirely parametric over the provenance, so that we can use `Pointer<AllocId>` inside `Scalar` but use `Pointer<Option<AllocId>>` when accessing memory (where `None` represents the case that we could not figure out an `AllocId`; in that case the `offset` is an absolute address). Moreover, the `Provenance` trait determines if a pointer with a given provenance can be cast to an integer by simply dropping the provenance.
I hope this can be read commit-by-commit, but the first commit does the bulk of the work. It introduces some FIXMEs that are resolved later.

Do not allow JSON targets to set is-builtin: true
Note that this will affect (and make builds fail for) all of the projects out there that have target files invalid in this way. Crater, however, does not really cover these kinds of the codebases, so it is quite difficult to measure the impact. That said, the target files invalid in this way can start causing build failures each time LLVM is upgraded, anyway, so it is probably a good opportunity to disallow this property, entirely.
Another approach considered was to simply not parse this field anymore, which would avoid making the builds explicitly fail, but it wasn't clear to me if `is-builtin` was always set unintentionally… In case this was the case, I'd expect people to file a feature request stating specifically for what purpose they were using `is-builtin`.
Fixes#86017
This resolves all the problems we had around "normalizing" the representation of a Scalar in case it carries a Pointer value: we can just use Pointer if we want to have a value taht we are sure is already normalized.
Add clobber-only register classes for asm!
These are needed to properly express a function call ABI using a clobber
list, even though we don't support passing actual values into/out of
these registers.
Improve opaque pointers support
Opaque pointers are coming, and rustc is not ready.
This adds partial support by passing an explicit load type to LLVM. Two issues I've encountered:
* The necessary type was not available at the point where non-temporal copies were generated. I've pushed the code for that upwards out of the memcpy implementation and moved the position of a cast to make do with the types we have available. (I'm not sure that cast is needed at all, but have retained it in the interest of conservativeness.)
* The `PlaceRef::project_deref()` function used during debuginfo generation seems to be buggy in some way -- though I haven't figured out specifically what it does wrong. Replacing it with `load_operand().deref()` did the trick, but I don't really know what I'm doing here.
These are needed to properly express a function call ABI using a clobber
list, even though we don't support passing actual values into/out of
these registers.
If crate declares `rust_eh_personality`, re-use existing declaration
as otherwise attempts to set function attributes that follow the
declaration will fail (unless it happens to have exactly the same
type signature as the one predefined in the compiler).
Add support for raw-dylib with stdcall, fastcall functions
Next stage of work for #58713: allow `extern "stdcall"` and `extern "fastcall"` with `#[link(kind = "raw-dylib")]`.
I've deliberately omitted support for vectorcall, as that doesn't currently work, and I wanted to get this out for review. (I haven't really investigated the vectorcall failure much yet, but at first (very cursory) glance it appears that the problem is elsewhere.)
This makes load generation compatible with opaque pointers.
The generation of nontemporal copies still accesses the pointer
element type, as fixing this requires more movement.
- Closures in external crates may get compiled in because of
monomorphization. We should store names of captured variables
in `optimized_mir`, so that they are written into the metadata
file and we can use them to generate debuginfo.
- If there are breakpoints inside closures, the names of captured
variables stored in `optimized_mir` can be used to print them.
Now the name is more precise when disjoint fields are captured.
Previously, debuggers print closures as something like
```
y::main::closure-0 (0x7fffffffdd34)
```
The pointer actually references to an upvar. It is not
very obvious, especially for beginners.
It's because upvars don't have names before, as they
are packed into a tuple. This commit names the upvars,
so we can expect to see something like
```
y::main::closure-0 {_captured_ref__b: 0x[...]}
```
LLVM target name does not necessarily match the Rust target name and it
can be confusing when the ICE message is describing a target other than
has been specified on the command line.
Refactor linker code
This merges `LinkerInfo` into `CrateInfo` as there is no reason to keep them separate. `LinkerInfo::to_linker` is merged into `get_linker` as both have different logic for each linker type and `to_linker` is directly called after `get_linker`. Also contains a couple of small cleanups.
See the individual commits for all changes.
Previously, only the fields would be displayed with no indication of the
variant name. If you already knew the enum was univariant, this was ok
but if the enum was univariant because of layout, for example, a
`Result<T, !>` then it could be very confusing which variant was the
active one.
Previously, directly tagged enums had a `variant$` field which would
show the name of the active variant. We now show the variant using a
`[variant]` synthetic item just like we do for niche-layout enums.
Improve debug symbol names to avoid ambiguity and work better with MSVC's debugger
There are several cases where names of types and functions in the debug info are either ambiguous, or not helpful, such as including ambiguous placeholders (e.g., `{{impl}}`, `{{closure}}` or `dyn _'`) or dropping qualifications (e.g., for dynamic types).
Instead, each debug symbol name should be unique and useful:
* Include disambiguators for anonymous `DefPathDataName` (closures and generators), and unify their formatting when used as a path-qualifier vs item being qualified.
* Qualify the principal trait for dynamic types.
* If there is no principal trait for a dynamic type, emit all other traits instead.
* Respect the `qualified` argument when emitting ref and pointer types.
* For implementations, emit the disambiguator.
* Print const generics when emitting generic parameters or arguments.
Additionally, when targeting MSVC, its debugger treats many command arguments as C++ expressions, even when the argument is defined to be a symbol name. As such names in the debug info need to be more C++-like to be parsed correctly:
* Avoid characters with special meaning (`#`, `[`, `"`, `+`).
* Never start a name with `<` or `{` as this is treated as an operator.
* `>>` is always treated as a right-shift, even when parsing generic arguments (so add a space to avoid this).
* Emit function declarations using C/C++ style syntax (e.g., leading return type).
* Emit arrays as a synthetic `array$<type, size>` type.
* Include a `$` in all synthetic types as this is a legal character for C++, but not Rust (thus we avoid collisions with user types).
Add support for leaf function frame pointer elimination
This PR adds ability for the target specifications to specify frame
pointer emission type that's not just “always” or “whatever cg decides”.
In particular there's a new mode that allows omission of the frame
pointer for leaf functions (those that don't call any other functions).
We then set this new mode for Aarch64-based Apple targets.

Remove unused dependencies from compiler crates
Various compiler crates have dependencies that they don't appear to use. I used some scripting to detect such dependencies, filtered them based on some manual review, and removed those that do indeed appear to be entirely unused.

Allow loading of llvm plugins on nightly
Based on a discussion in #82734 / with `@wsmoses.`
Mainly moves [this](0149bc4e7e) behind a -Z flag, so it can only be used on nightly,
as requested by `@nagisa` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82734#issuecomment-835863940
This change allows loading of llvm plugins like Enzyme.
Right now it also requires a shared library LLVM build of rustc for symbol resolution.
```rust
// test.rs
extern { fn __enzyme_autodiff(_: usize, ...) -> f64; }
fn square(x : f64) -> f64 {
return x * x;
}
fn main() {
unsafe {
println!("Hello, world {} {}!", square(3.0), __enzyme_autodiff(square as usize, 3.0));
}
}
```
```
./rustc test.rs -Z llvm-plugins="./LLVMEnzyme-12.so" -C passes="enzyme"
./test
Hello, world 9 6!
```
I will try to figure out how to simplify the usage and get this into stable in a later iteration,
but having this on nightly will already help testing further steps.
Disable the machine outliner by default
This addresses a codegen-issue that needs to be fixed upstream in LLVM.

Partial support for raw-dylib linkage
First cut of functionality for issue #58713: add support for `#[link(kind = "raw-dylib")]` on `extern` blocks in lib crates compiled to .rlib files. Does not yet support `#[link_name]` attributes on functions, or the `#[link_ordinal]` attribute, or `#[link(kind = "raw-dylib")]` on `extern` blocks in bin crates; I intend to publish subsequent PRs to fill those gaps. It's also not yet clear whether this works for functions in `extern "stdcall"` blocks; I also intend to investigate that shortly and make any necessary changes as a follow-on PR.
This implementation calls out to an LLVM function to construct the actual `.idata` sections as temporary `.lib` files on disk and then links those into the generated .rlib.
BPF target support
This adds `bpfel-unknown-none` and `bpfeb-unknown-none`, two new no_std targets that generate little and big endian BPF. The approach taken is very similar to the cuda target, where `TargetOptions::obj_is_bitcode` is enabled and code generation is done by the linker.
I added the targets to `dist-various-2`. There are [some tests](https://github.com/alessandrod/bpf-linker/tree/main/tests/assembly) in bpf-linker and I'm planning to add more. Those are currently not ran as part of rust CI.

rustc: Store metadata-in-rlibs in object files
This commit updates how rustc compiler metadata is stored in rlibs.
Previously metadata was stored as a raw file that has the same format as
`--emit metadata`. After this commit, however, the metadata is encoded
into a small object file which has one section which is the contents of
the metadata.
The motivation for this commit is to fix a common case where #83730
arises. The problem is that when rustc crates a `dylib` crate type it
needs to include entire rlib files into the dylib, so it passes
`--whole-archive` (or the equivalent) to the linker. The problem with
this, though, is that the linker will attempt to read all files in the
archive. If the metadata file were left as-is (today) then the linker
would generate an error saying it can't read the file. The previous
solution was to alter the rlib just before linking, creating a new
archive in a temporary directory which has the metadata file removed.
This problem from before this commit is now removed if the metadata file
is stored in an object file that the linker can read. The only caveat we
have to take care of is to ensure that the linker never actually
includes the contents of the object file into the final output. We apply
similar tricks as the `.llvmbc` bytecode sections to do this.
This involved changing the metadata loading code a bit, namely updating
some of the LLVM C APIs used to use non-deprecated ones and fiddling
with the lifetimes a bit to get everything to work out. Otherwise though
this isn't intended to be a functional change really, only that metadata
is stored differently in archives now.
This should end up fixing #83730 because by default dylibs will no
longer have their rlib dependencies "altered" meaning that
split-debuginfo will continue to have valid paths pointing at the
original rlibs. (note that we still "alter" rlibs if LTO is enabled to
remove Rust object files and we also "alter" for the #[link(cfg)]
feature, but that's rarely used).

Previously, we would generate a single struct with the layout of the
dataful variant plus an extra field whose name contained the value of
the niche (this would only really work for things like `Option<&_>`
where we can determine that the `None` case maps to `0` but for enums
that have multiple tag only variants, this doesn't work).
Now, we generate a union of two structs, one which is the layout of the
dataful variant and one which just has a way of reading the
discriminant. We also generate an enum which maps the discriminant value
to the tag only variants.
We also encode information about the range of values which correspond to
the dataful variant in the type name and then use natvis to determine
which union field we should display to the user.
As a result of this change, all niche-layout enums render correctly in
WinDbg and Visual Studio!
This wasn't necessary for msvc and caused issues where different types
with the same name such as different instantiations of `Option<T>` would
have colliding debuginfo. This confused the debugger which would pick
one of the type definitions and use for all types with that name even
though they had different layout.
Update list of allowed aarch64 features
I recently added these features to std_detect for aarch64 linux, pending [review](https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/pull/1146).
I have commented any features not supported by LLVM 9, the current minimum version for Rust. Some (PAuth at least) were renamed between 9 & 12 and I've left them disabled. TME, however, is not in LLVM 9 but I've left it enabled.

Set dso_local for more items

# Stabilization report
## Summary
This stabilizes using macro expansion in key-value attributes, like so:
```rust
#[doc = include_str!("my_doc.md")]
struct S;
#[path = concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/generated.rs")]
mod m;
```
See the changes to the reference for details on what macros are allowed;
see Petrochenkov's excellent blog post [on internals](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/macro-expansion-points-in-attributes/11455)
for alternatives that were considered and rejected ("why accept no more
and no less?")
This has been available on nightly since 1.50 with no major issues.
## Notes
### Accepted syntax
The parser accepts arbitrary Rust expressions in this position, but any expression other than a macro invocation will ultimately lead to an error because it is not expected by the built-in expression forms (e.g., `#[doc]`). Note that decorators and the like may be able to observe other expression forms.
### Expansion ordering
Expansion of macro expressions in "inert" attributes occurs after decorators have executed, analogously to macro expressions appearing in the function body or other parts of decorator input.
There is currently no way for decorators to accept macros in key-value position if macro expansion must be performed before the decorator executes (if the macro can simply be copied into the output for later expansion, that can work).
## Test cases
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/test/ui/attributes/key-value-expansion-on-mac.rs
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/test/rustdoc/external-doc.rs
The feature has also been dogfooded extensively in the compiler and
standard library:

## Unresolved Questions
~~https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83366#issuecomment-805180738 listed some concerns, but they have been resolved as of this final report.~~
## Additional Information
There are two workarounds that have a similar effect for `#[doc]`
attributes on nightly. One is to emulate this behavior by using a limited version of this feature that was stabilized for historical reasons:
```rust
macro_rules! forward_inner_docs {
($e:expr => $i:item) => {
#[doc = $e]
$i
};
}
forward_inner_docs!(include_str!("lib.rs") => struct S {});
```
This also works for other attributes (like `#[path = concat!(...)]`).
The other is to use `doc(include)`:
```rust
#![feature(external_doc)]
#[doc(include = "lib.rs")]
struct S {}
```
The first works, but is non-trivial for people to discover, and
difficult to read and maintain. The second is a strange special-case for
a particular use of the macro. This generalizes it to work for any use
case, not just including files.
I plan to remove `doc(include)` when this is stabilized. The
`forward_inner_docs` workaround will still compile without warnings, but
I expect it to be used less once it's no longer necessary.
Remove CrateNum parameter for queries that only work on local crate
The pervasive `CrateNum` parameter is a remnant of the multi-crate rustc idea.
Using `()` as query key in those cases avoids having to worry about the validity of the query key.
Use the object crate for metadata reading
This allows sharing the metadata reader between cg_llvm, cg_clif and other codegen backends.
This is not currently useful for rlib reading with cg_spirv ([rust-gpu](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/)) as it uses tar rather than ar as .rlib format, but it is useful for dylib reading required for loading proc macros. (cc `@eddyb)`
The object crate is already trusted as dependency of libstd through backtrace. As far as I know it supports reading all object file formats used by targets for which we support rust dylibs with crate metadata, but I am not certain. If this happens to not be the case, I could keep using LLVM for reading dylib metadata.
Marked as WIP for a perf run and as it is based on #83637.
Add asm!() support for PowerPC
This includes GPRs and FPRs only.
Note that this does not include PowerPC64.
For my reference, this was mostly duplicated from PR #73214.
Fix `--remap-path-prefix` not correctly remapping `rust-src` component paths and unify handling of path mapping with virtualized paths
This PR fixes#73167 ("Binaries end up containing path to the rust-src component despite `--remap-path-prefix`") by preventing real local filesystem paths from reaching compilation output if the path is supposed to be remapped.
`RealFileName::Named` introduced in #72767 is now renamed as `LocalPath`, because this variant wraps a (most likely) valid local filesystem path.
`RealFileName::Devirtualized` is renamed as `Remapped` to be used for remapped path from a real path via `--remap-path-prefix` argument, as well as real path inferred from a virtualized (during compiler bootstrapping) `/rustc/...` path. The `local_path` field is now an `Option<PathBuf>`, as it will be set to `None` before serialisation, so it never reaches any build output. Attempting to serialise a non-`None` `local_path` will cause an assertion faliure.
When a path is remapped, a `RealFileName::Remapped` variant is created. The original path is preserved in `local_path` field and the remapped path is saved in `virtual_name` field. Previously, the `local_path` is directly modified which goes against its purpose of "suitable for reading from the file system on the local host".
`rustc_span::SourceFile`'s fields `unmapped_path` (introduced by #44940) and `name_was_remapped` (introduced by #41508 when `--remap-path-prefix` feature originally added) are removed, as these two pieces of information can be inferred from the `name` field: if it's anything other than a `FileName::Real(_)`, or if it is a `FileName::Real(RealFileName::LocalPath(_))`, then clearly `name_was_remapped` would've been false and `unmapped_path` would've been `None`. If it is a `FileName::Real(RealFileName::Remapped{local_path, virtual_name})`, then `name_was_remapped` would've been true and `unmapped_path` would've been `Some(local_path)`.
cc `@eddyb` who implemented `/rustc/...` path devirtualisation
This doesn't seem to be necessary anymore, although I don't know
at which point or why that changed.
Forcing -O1 makes some tests fail under NewPM, because NewPM also
performs inlining at -O1, so it ends up performing much more
optimization in practice than before.
rustc: Support Rust-specific features in -Ctarget-feature
Since the beginning of time the `-Ctarget-feature` flag on the command
line has largely been passed unmodified to LLVM. Afterwards, though, the
`#[target_feature]` attribute was stabilized and some of the names in
this attribute do not match the corresponding LLVM name. This is because
Rust doesn't always want to stabilize the exact feature name in LLVM for
the equivalent functionality in Rust. This creates a situation, however,
where in Rust you'd write:
#[target_feature(enable = "pclmulqdq")]
unsafe fn foo() {
// ...
}
but on the command line you would write:
RUSTFLAGS="-Ctarget-feature=+pclmul" cargo build --release
This difference is somewhat odd to deal with if you're a newcomer and
the situation may be made worse with upcoming features like [WebAssembly
SIMD](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/74372) which may be more
prevalent.
This commit implements a mapping to translate requests via
`-Ctarget-feature` through the same name-mapping functionality that's
present for attributes in Rust going to LLVM. This means that
`+pclmulqdq` will work on x86 targets where as previously it did not.
I've attempted to keep this backwards-compatible where the compiler will
just opportunistically attempt to remap features found in
`-Ctarget-feature`, but if there's something it doesn't understand it
gets passed unmodified to LLVM just as it was before.
Removes unneeded check of `#[no_coverage]` in mapgen
There is an anticipated feature request to support a compiler flag that
only adds coverage for specific files (or perhaps mods). As I thought
about where that change would need to be supported, I realized that
checking the attribute in mapgen (for unused functions) was unnecessary.
The unused functions are only synthesized if they have MIR coverage, and
functions with the `no_coverage` attribute will not have been
instrumented with MIR coverage statements in the first place.
New tests confirm this.
Also, while adding tests, I updated resolved comments and FIXMEs in
other tests, and expanded comments and tests on one remaining issue that
is still not resolved.

And adds tests to validate it still works.

This commit implements both the native linking modifiers infrastructure
as well as an initial attempt at the individual modifiers from the RFC.
It also introduces a feature flag for the general syntax along with
individual feature flags for each modifier.
