- the old interface between HermitCore and the Rust Standard Library
based on a small C library (newlib)
- remove this interface and call directly the unikernel
- remove the dependency to the HermitCore linker
- use rust-lld as linker
This commit, after reverting #55359, applies a different fix for #46775
while also fixing #55775. The basic idea was to go back to pre-#55359
libstd, and then fix#46775 in a way that doesn't expose #55775.
The issue described in #46775 boils down to two problems:
* First, the global environment is reset during `exec` but, but if the
`exec` call fails then the global environment was a dangling pointer
into free'd memory as the block of memory was deallocated when
`Command` is dropped. This is fixed in this commit by installing a
`Drop` stack object which ensures that the `environ` pointer is
preserved on a failing `exec`.
* Second, the global environment was accessed in an unsynchronized
fashion during `exec`. This was fixed by ensuring that the
Rust-specific environment lock is acquired for these system-level
operations.
Thanks to Alex Gaynor for pioneering the solution here!
Closes#55775

As a start, the port uses the simplest possible configuration (no jemalloc, abort on panic)
and makes use of existing Unix-specific code wherever possible.
It adds targets for x86_64 (current main HermitCore platform) and aarch64 (HermitCore platform
under development).
Together with the patches to "liblibc" and "llvm", this enables HermitCore applications to be
written in Rust.
Use the CTL_KERN.KERN_PROC_ARGS.-1.KERN_PROC_PATHNAME sysctl in
preference over the /proc/curproc/exe symlink.
Additionally, perform more validation of aformentioned symlink.
Particularly on pre-8.x NetBSD this symlink will point to '/' when
accurate information is unavailable.
This commit adds the needed modifications to compile the std crate
for the L4 Runtime environment (L4Re).
A target for the L4Re was introduced in commit:
c151220a84
In many aspects implementations for linux also apply for the L4Re
microkernel.
Two uncommon characteristics had to be resolved:
* L4Re has no network funktionality
* L4Re has a maximum stacksize of 1Mb for threads

The readdir_r function is deprecated on newer Posix systems because of
various problems, and not implemented at all for Fuchsia. There are
already implementations using both, and this patch switches Fuchsia
over to the readdir-based one.
Fixes#40021 for Fuchsia, but that issue also contains discussion of
what should happen for other Posix systems.
DoubleEndedIterator for Args
This PR implements the DoubleEndedIterator trait for the `std::env::Args[Os]` structure, as well
as the internal implementations.
It is primarily motivated by me, as I happened to implement a simple `reversor` program many times
now, which so far had to use code like this:
```Rust
for arg in std::env::args().skip(1).collect::<Vec<_>>().iter().rev() {}
```
... even though I would have loved to do this instead:
```Rust
for arg in std::env::args().skip(1).rev() {}
```
The latter is more natural, and I did not find a reason for not implementing it.
After all, on every system, the number of arguments passed to the program are known
at runtime.
To my mind, it follows KISS, and does not try to be smart at all. Also, there are no unit-tests,
primarily as I did not find any existing tests for the `Args` struct either.
The windows implementation is basically a copy-pasted variant of the `next()` method implementation,
and I could imagine sharing most of the code instead. Actually I would be happy if the reviewer would
ask for it.
The number of arguments given to a process is always known, which
makes implementing DoubleEndedIterator possible.
That way, the Iterator::rev() method becomes usable, among others.

Tidy for DoubleEndedIterator
I chose to not create a new feature for it, even though
technically, this makes me lie about the original availability
of the implementation.
Verify with @alexchrichton
Setup feature flag for new std::env::Args iterators
Add test for Args reverse iterator
It's somewhat depending on the input of the test program,
but made in such a way that should be somewhat flexible to changes
to the way it is called.
Deduplicate windows ArgsOS code for DEI
DEI = DoubleEndedIterator
Move env::args().rev() test to run-pass
It must be controlling it's arguments for full isolation.
Remove superfluous feature name
Assert all arguments returned by env::args().rev()
Let's be very sure it works as we expect, why take chances.
Fix rval of os_string_from_ptr
A trait cannot be returned, but only the corresponding object.
Deref pointers to actually operate on the argument
Put unsafe to correct location
A `NULL` from `readdir` could be the end of stream or an error. The
only way to know is to check `errno`, so it must be set to a known value
first, like a 0 that POSIX will never use.
This patch adds `set_errno`, uses it to clear the value before calling
`readdir`, then checks it again after to see the reason for a `NULL`.
Following changes:
* birthtime does not exist on DragonFly
* errno: __dfly_error is no more. Use #[thread_local] static errno.
* clock_gettime expects a c_ulong (use a type alias)
These changes are required to build DragonFly snapshots again.
