This avoids the name clash with `rustc_serialize::Encoder` (a trait),
and allows lots qualifiers to be removed and imports to be simplified
(e.g. fewer `as` imports).
There are two impls of the `Encoder` trait: `opaque::Encoder` and
`opaque::FileEncoder`. The former encodes into memory and is infallible, the
latter writes to file and is fallible.
Currently, standard `Result`/`?`/`unwrap` error handling is used, but this is a
bit verbose and has non-trivial cost, which is annoying given how rare failures
are (especially in the infallible `opaque::Encoder` case).
This commit changes how `Encoder` fallibility is handled. All the `emit_*`
methods are now infallible. `opaque::Encoder` requires no great changes for
this. `opaque::FileEncoder` now implements a delayed error handling strategy.
If a failure occurs, it records this via the `res` field, and all subsequent
encoding operations are skipped if `res` indicates an error has occurred. Once
encoding is complete, the new `finish` method is called, which returns a
`Result`. In other words, there is now a single `Result`-producing method
instead of many of them.
This has very little effect on how any file errors are reported if
`opaque::FileEncoder` has any failures.
Much of this commit is boring mechanical changes, removing `Result` return
values and `?` or `unwrap` from expressions. The more interesting parts are as
follows.
- serialize.rs: The `Encoder` trait gains an `Ok` associated type. The
`into_inner` method is changed into `finish`, which returns
`Result<Vec<u8>, !>`.
- opaque.rs: The `FileEncoder` adopts the delayed error handling
strategy. Its `Ok` type is a `usize`, returning the number of bytes
written, replacing previous uses of `FileEncoder::position`.
- Various methods that take an encoder now consume it, rather than being
passed a mutable reference, e.g. `serialize_query_result_cache`.
`SourceFile::lines` is a big part of metadata. It's stored in a compressed form
(a difference list) to save disk space. Decoding it is a big fraction of
compile time for very small crates/programs.
This commit introduces a new type `SourceFileLines` which has a `Lines`
form and a `Diffs` form. The latter is used when the metadata is first
read, and it is only decoded into the `Lines` form when line data is
actually needed. This avoids the decoding cost for many files,
especially in `std`. It's a performance win of up to 15% for tiny
crates/programs where metadata decoding is a high part of compilation
costs.
A `Lock` is needed because the methods that access lines data (which can
trigger decoding) take `&self` rather than `&mut self`. To allow for this,
`SourceFile::lines` now takes a `FnMut` that operates on the lines slice rather
than returning the lines slice.
`Decoder` has two impls:
- opaque: this impl is already partly infallible, i.e. in some places it
currently panics on failure (e.g. if the input is too short, or on a
bad `Result` discriminant), and in some places it returns an error
(e.g. on a bad `Option` discriminant). The number of places where
either happens is surprisingly small, just because the binary
representation has very little redundancy and a lot of input reading
can occur even on malformed data.
- json: this impl is fully fallible, but it's only used (a) for the
`.rlink` file production, and there's a `FIXME` comment suggesting it
should change to a binary format, and (b) in a few tests in
non-fundamental ways. Indeed #85993 is open to remove it entirely.
And the top-level places in the compiler that call into decoding just
abort on error anyway. So the fallibility is providing little value, and
getting rid of it leads to some non-trivial performance improvements.
Much of this commit is pretty boring and mechanical. Some notes about
a few interesting parts:
- The commit removes `Decoder::{Error,error}`.
- `InternIteratorElement::intern_with`: the impl for `T` now has the same
optimization for small counts that the impl for `Result<T, E>` has,
because it's now much hotter.
- Decodable impls for SmallVec, LinkedList, VecDeque now all use
`collect`, which is nice; the one for `Vec` uses unsafe code, because
that gave better perf on some benchmarks.
Fixes#92163Fixes#92014
When writing to the incremental cache, we encode all `Span`s
we encounter, regardless of whether or not their `SourceFile`
comes from the local crate, or from a foreign crate.
When we decode a `Span`, we use the `StableSourceFileId` we encoded
to locate the matching `SourceFile` in the current session. If this
id corresponds to a `SourceFile` from another crate, then we need to
have already imported that `SourceFile` into our current session.
This usually happens automatically during resolution / macro expansion,
when we try to resolve definitions from other crates. In certain cases,
however, we may try to load a `Span` from a transitive dependency
without having ever imported the `SourceFile`s from that crate, leading
to an ICE.
This PR fixes the issue by calling `imported_source_files()`
when we encounter a `SourceFile` with a foreign `CrateNum`.
This ensures that all `SourceFile`s from that crate are imported
into the current session.
This encoding allows for random access without an expensive upfront decoding
state which in turn allows simplifying the DefPathIndex lookup logic without
regressing performance.
generic_const_exprs: use thir for abstract consts instead of mir
Changes `AbstractConst` building to use `thir` instead of `mir` so that there's less chance of consts unifying when they shouldn't because lowering to mir dropped information (see `abstract-consts-as-cast-5.rs` test)
