Remove support for `-Zprofile` (gcov-style coverage instrumentation)
Tracking issue: #42524
MCP: https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/798
---
This PR removes the unstable `-Zprofile` flag, which enables ”gcov-style” coverage instrumentation, along with its associated `-Zprofile-emit` configuration flag.
(The profile flag predates and is almost entirely separate from the stable `-Cinstrument-coverage` flag.)
Notably, the `-Zprofile` flag:
- Is largely untested in-tree, having only one run-make test that does not check whether its output is correct or useful.
- Has no known maintainer.
- Has seen no push towards stabilization.
- Has at least one severe regression reported in 2022 that apparently remains unaddressed.
- #100125
- Is confusingly named, since it appears to be more about coverage than performance profiling, and has nothing to do with PGO.
- Is fundamentally limited by relying on counters auto-inserted by LLVM, with no knowledge of Rust beyond debuginfo.
Add `lp64e` RISC-V ABI
This PR adds support for the `lp64e` RISC-V ABI, which is the 64-bit equivalent of the `ilp32e` ABI that is already supported.
For reference, this ABI was originally added to LLVM in [this PR](https://reviews.llvm.org/D70401).
Rename `rustc_abi::Abi` to `BackendRepr`
Remove the confabulation of `rustc_abi::Abi` with what "ABI" actually means by renaming it to `BackendRepr`, and rename `Abi::Aggregate` to `BackendRepr::Memory`. The type never actually represented how things are passed, as that has to have `PassMode` considered, at minimum, but rather it just is how we represented some things to the backend. This conflation arose because LLVM, the primary backend at the time, would lower certain IR forms using certain ABIs. Even that only somewhat was true, as it broke down when one ventured significantly afield of what is described by the System V AMD64 ABI either by using different architectures, ABI-modifying IR annotations, the same architecture **with different ISA extensions enabled**, or other... unexpected delights.
Unfortunately both names are still somewhat of a misnomer right now, as people have written code for years based on this misunderstanding. Still, their original names are even moreso, and for better or worse, this backend code hasn't received as much maintenance as the rest of the compiler, lately. Actually arriving at a correct end-state will simply require us to disentangle a lot of code in order to fix, much of it pointlessly repeated in several places. Thus this is not an "actual fix", just a way to deflect further misunderstandings.
The initial naming of "Abi" was an awful mistake, conveying wrong ideas
about how psABIs worked and even more about what the enum meant.
It was only meant to represent the way the value would be described to
a codegen backend as it was lowered to that intermediate representation.
It was never meant to mean anything about the actual psABI handling!
The conflation is because LLVM typically will associate a certain form
with a certain ABI, but even that does not hold when the special cases
that actually exist arise, plus the IR annotations that modify the ABI.
Reframe `rustc_abi::Abi` as the `BackendRepr` of the type, and rename
`BackendRepr::Aggregate` as `BackendRepr::Memory`. Unfortunately, due to
the persistent misunderstandings, this too is now incorrect:
- Scattered ABI-relevant code is entangled with BackendRepr
- We do not always pre-compute a correct BackendRepr that reflects how
we "actually" want this value to be handled, so we leave the backend
interface to also inject various special-cases here
- In some cases `BackendRepr::Memory` is a "real" aggregate, but in
others it is in fact using memory, and in some cases it is a scalar!
Our rustc-to-backend lowering code handles this sort of thing right now.
That will eventually be addressed by lifting duplicated lowering code
to either rustc_codegen_ssa or rustc_target as appropriate.
- removed extra bits from predicates queries that are no longer needed in the new system
- removed the need for `non_erasable_generics` to take in tcx and DefId, removed unused arguments in callers
"innermost", "outermost", "leftmost", and "rightmost" don't need hyphens
These are all standard dictionary words and don't require hyphenation.

Encountered an instance of this in error messages and it bugged me, so I
figured I'd fix it across the entire codebase.
stabilize Strict Provenance and Exposed Provenance APIs
Given that [RFC 3559](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3559-rust-has-provenance.html) has been accepted, t-lang has approved the concept of provenance to exist in the language. So I think it's time that we stabilize the strict provenance and exposed provenance APIs, and discuss provenance explicitly in the docs:
```rust
// core::ptr
pub const fn without_provenance<T>(addr: usize) -> *const T;
pub const fn dangling<T>() -> *const T;
pub const fn without_provenance_mut<T>(addr: usize) -> *mut T;
pub const fn dangling_mut<T>() -> *mut T;
pub fn with_exposed_provenance<T>(addr: usize) -> *const T;
pub fn with_exposed_provenance_mut<T>(addr: usize) -> *mut T;
impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
pub fn addr(self) -> usize;
pub fn expose_provenance(self) -> usize;
pub fn with_addr(self, addr: usize) -> Self;
pub fn map_addr(self, f: impl FnOnce(usize) -> usize) -> Self;
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
pub fn addr(self) -> usize;
pub fn expose_provenance(self) -> usize;
pub fn with_addr(self, addr: usize) -> Self;
pub fn map_addr(self, f: impl FnOnce(usize) -> usize) -> Self;
}
impl<T: ?Sized> NonNull<T> {
pub fn addr(self) -> NonZero<usize>;
pub fn with_addr(self, addr: NonZero<usize>) -> Self;
pub fn map_addr(self, f: impl FnOnce(NonZero<usize>) -> NonZero<usize>) -> Self;
}
```
I also did a pass over the docs to adjust them, because this is no longer an "experiment". The `ptr` docs now discuss the concept of provenance in general, and then they go into the two families of APIs for dealing with provenance: Strict Provenance and Exposed Provenance. I removed the discussion of how pointers also have an associated "address space" -- that is not actually tracked in the pointer value, it is tracked in the type, so IMO it just distracts from the core point of provenance. I also adjusted the docs for `with_exposed_provenance` to make it clear that we cannot guarantee much about this function, it's all best-effort.
There are two unstable lints associated with the strict_provenance feature gate; I moved them to a new [strict_provenance_lints](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/130351) feature since I didn't want this PR to have an even bigger FCP. ;)
`@rust-lang/opsem` Would be great to get some feedback on the docs here. :)

Create `_imp__` symbols also when doing ThinLTO
When generating a rlib crate on Windows we create `dllimport` / `_imp__` symbols for each global. This effectively makes the rlib contain an import library for itself and allows them to both be dynamically and statically linked. However when doing ThinLTO we do not generate these and thus we end up with missing symbols. Microsoft's `link` can fix these up (and emits warnings), but `lld` seems to currently be unable to.
This PR also does this generation for ThinLTO avoiding those issues with `lld` and also avoids the warnings on `link`.
This is an workaround for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81408.

codegen_ssa: consolidate tied target checks
Fixes#105110.
Fixes#105111.
`rustc_codegen_llvm` and `rustc_codegen_gcc` duplicated logic for checking if tied target features were partially enabled. This PR consolidates these checks into `rustc_codegen_ssa` in the `codegen_fn_attrs` query, which also is run pre-monomorphisation for each function, which ensures that this check is run for unused functions, as would be expected.
Also adds a test confirming that enabling one tied feature doesn't imply another - the appropriate error for this was already being emitted. I did a bisect and narrowed it down to two patches it was likely to be - something in #128796, probably #128221 or #128679.
- fix for divergence
- fix error message
- fix another cranelift test
- fix some cranelift things
- don't set the NORETURN option for naked asm
- fix use of naked_asm! in doc comment
- fix use of naked_asm! in run-make test
- use `span_bug` in unreachable branch

Apple: Do not specify an SDK version in `rlib` object files
This was added in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/114114, but is unnecessary, since it ends up being overwritten when linking anyhow, and it feels wrong to embed some arbitrary SDK version in here. The object files produced by LLVM also do not set this, and the tooling shows `n/a` when it's `0`, so it seems to genuinely be optional in object files.
I've also added a test for the different places the SDK version shows up, and documented a bit more in the code how SDK versions work.
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/129432 for the bigger picture.

Only add an automatic SONAME for Rust dylibs
#126094 added an automatic relative `SONAME` to all dynamic libraries, but it was really only needed for Rust `--crate-type="dylib"`. In Fedora, it was a surprise to see `SONAME` on `"cdylib"` libraries like Python modules, especially because that generates an undesirable RPM `Provides`. We can instead add a `SONAME` just for Rust dylibs by passing the crate-type argument farther.
