Implement simple CopyPropagation based on SSA analysis
This PR extracts the "copy propagation" logic from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/106285.
MIR may produce chains of assignment between locals, like `_x = move? _y`.
This PR attempts to remove such chains by unifying locals.
The current implementation is a bit overzealous in turning moves into copies, and in removing storage statements.
Use stable metric for const eval limit instead of current terminator-based logic
This patch adds a `MirPass` that inserts a new MIR instruction `ConstEvalCounter` to any loops and function calls in the CFG. This instruction is used during Const Eval to count against the `const_eval_limit`, and emit the `StepLimitReached` error, replacing the current logic which uses Terminators only.
The new method of counting loops and function calls should be more stable across compiler versions (i.e., not cause crates that compiled successfully before, to no longer compile when changes to the MIR generation/optimization are made).
Also see: #103877
This patch adds a `MirPass` that tracks the number of back-edges and
function calls in the CFG, adds a new MIR instruction to increment a
counter every time they are encountered during Const Eval, and emit a
warning if a configured limit is breached.
Record `LocalDefId` in HIR nodes instead of a side table
This is part of an attempt to remove the `HirId -> LocalDefId` table from HIR.
This attempt is a prerequisite to creation of `LocalDefId` after HIR lowering (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/96840), by controlling how `def_id` information is accessed.
This first part adds the information to HIR nodes themselves instead of a table.
The second part is https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/103902
The third part will be to make `hir::Visitor::visit_fn` take a `LocalDefId` as last parameter.
The fourth part will be to completely remove the side table.
indirect immutable freeze by-value function parameters.
Right now, `rustc` only examines function signatures and the platform ABI when
determining the LLVM attributes to apply to parameters. This results in missed
optimizations, because there are some attributes that can be determined via
analysis of the MIR making up the function body. In particular, `readonly`
could be applied to most indirectly-passed by-value function arguments
(specifically, those that are freeze and are observed not to be mutated), but
it currently is not.
This patch introduces the machinery that allows `rustc` to determine those
attributes. It consists of a query, `deduced_param_attrs`, that, when
evaluated, analyzes the MIR of the function to determine supplementary
attributes. The results of this query for each function are written into the
crate metadata so that the deduced parameter attributes can be applied to
cross-crate functions. In this patch, we simply check the parameter for
mutations to determine whether the `readonly` attribute should be applied to
parameters that are indirect immutable freeze by-value. More attributes could
conceivably be deduced in the future: `nocapture` and `noalias` come to mind.
Adding `readonly` to indirect function parameters where applicable enables some
potential optimizations in LLVM that are discussed in [issue 103103] and [PR
103070] around avoiding stack-to-stack memory copies that appear in functions
like `core::fmt::Write::write_fmt` and `core::panicking::assert_failed`. These
functions pass a large structure unchanged by value to a subfunction that also
doesn't mutate it. Since the structure in this case is passed as an indirect
parameter, it's a pointer from LLVM's perspective. As a result, the
intermediate copy of the structure that our codegen emits could be optimized
away by LLVM's MemCpyOptimizer if it knew that the pointer is `readonly
nocapture noalias` in both the caller and callee. We already pass `nocapture
noalias`, but we're missing `readonly`, as we can't determine whether a
by-value parameter is mutated by examining the signature in Rust. I didn't have
much success with having LLVM infer the `readonly` attribute, even with fat
LTO; it seems that deducing it at the MIR level is necessary.
No large benefits should be expected from this optimization *now*; LLVM needs
some changes (discussed in [PR 103070]) to more aggressively use the `noalias
nocapture readonly` combination in its alias analysis. I have some LLVM patches
for these optimizations and have had them looked over. With all the patches
applied locally, I enabled LLVM to remove all the `memcpy`s from the following
code:
```rust
fn main() {
println!("Hello {}", 3);
}
```
which is a significant codegen improvement over the status quo. I expect that
if this optimization kicks in in multiple places even for such a simple
program, then it will apply to Rust code all over the place.

Rework definition of MIR phases to more closely reflect semantic concerns
Implements most of rust-lang/compiler-team#522 .
I tried my best to restrict this PR to the "core" parts of the MCP. In other words, this includes just enough changes to make the new definition of `MirPhase` make sense. That means there are a couple of FIXMEs lying around. Depending on what reviewers prefer, I can either fix them in this PR or send follow up PRs. There are also a couple other refactorings of the `rustc_mir_transform/src/lib.rs` file that I want to do in follow ups that I didn't leave explicit FIXMEs for.
Fix FFI-unwind unsoundness with mixed panic mode
UB maybe introduced when an FFI exception happens in a `C-unwind` foreign function and it propagates through a crate compiled with `-C panic=unwind` into a crate compiled with `-C panic=abort` (#96926).
To prevent this unsoundness from happening, we will disallow a crate compiled with `-C panic=unwind` to be linked into `panic-abort` *if* it contains a call to `C-unwind` foreign function or function pointer. If no such call exists, then we continue to allow such mixed panic mode linking because it's sound (and stable). In fact we still need the ability to do mixed panic mode linking for std, because we only compile std once with `-C panic=unwind` and link it regardless panic strategy.
For libraries that wish to remain compile-once-and-linkable-to-both-panic-runtimes, a `ffi_unwind_calls` lint is added (gated under `c_unwind` feature gate) to flag any FFI unwind calls that will cause the linkable panic runtime be restricted.
In summary:
```rust
#![warn(ffi_unwind_calls)]
mod foo {
#[no_mangle]
pub extern "C-unwind" fn foo() {}
}
extern "C-unwind" {
fn foo();
}
fn main() {
// Call to Rust function is fine regardless ABI.
foo::foo();
// Call to foreign function, will cause the crate to be unlinkable to panic-abort if compiled with `-Cpanic=unwind`.
unsafe { foo(); }
//~^ WARNING call to foreign function with FFI-unwind ABI
let ptr: extern "C-unwind" fn() = foo::foo;
// Call to function pointer, will cause the crate to be unlinkable to panic-abort if compiled with `-Cpanic=unwind`.
ptr();
//~^ WARNING call to function pointer with FFI-unwind ABI
}
```
