There is code for converting `Attribute` (syntactic) to `MetaItem`
(semantic). There is also code for the reverse direction. The reverse
direction isn't really necessary; it's currently only used when
generating attributes, e.g. in `derive` code.
This commit adds some new functions for creating `Attributes`s directly,
without involving `MetaItem`s: `mk_attr_word`, `mk_attr_name_value_str`,
`mk_attr_nested_word`, and
`ExtCtxt::attr_{word,name_value_str,nested_word}`.
These new methods replace the old functions for creating `Attribute`s:
`mk_attr_inner`, `mk_attr_outer`, and `ExtCtxt::attribute`. Those
functions took `MetaItem`s as input, and relied on many other functions
that created `MetaItems`, which are also removed: `mk_name_value_item`,
`mk_list_item`, `mk_word_item`, `mk_nested_word_item`,
`{MetaItem,MetaItemKind,NestedMetaItem}::token_trees`,
`MetaItemKind::attr_args`, `MetaItemLit::{from_lit_kind,to_token}`,
`ExtCtxt::meta_word`.
Overall this cuts more than 100 lines of code and makes thing simpler.
`check_builtin_attribute` calls `parse_meta` to convert an `Attribute`
to a `MetaItem`, which it then checks. However, many callers of
`check_builtin_attribute` start with a `MetaItem`, and then convert it
to an `Attribute` by calling `cx.attribute(meta_item)`. This `MetaItem`
to `Attribute` to `MetaItem` conversion is silly.
This commit adds a new function `check_builtin_meta_item`, which can be
called instead from these call sites. `check_builtin_attribute` also now
calls it. The commit also renames `check_meta` as `check_attr` to better
match its arguments.
Change multiline span ASCII art visual order
Tweak the ASCII art for nested multiline spans so that we minimize line overlaps.
Partially addresses https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/61017.
`Lit::from_included_bytes` calls `Lit::from_lit_kind`, but the two call
sites only need the resulting `token::Lit`, not the full `ast::Lit`.
This commit changes those call sites to use `LitKind::to_token_lit`,
which means `from_included_bytes` can be removed.
Split `MacArgs` in two.
`MacArgs` is an enum with three variants: `Empty`, `Delimited`, and `Eq`. It's used in two ways:
- For representing attribute macro arguments (e.g. in `AttrItem`), where all three variants are used.
- For representing function-like macros (e.g. in `MacCall` and `MacroDef`), where only the `Delimited` variant is used.
In other words, `MacArgs` is used in two quite different places due to them having partial overlap. I find this makes the code hard to read. It also leads to various unreachable code paths, and allows invalid values (such as accidentally using `MacArgs::Empty` in a `MacCall`).
This commit splits `MacArgs` in two:
- `DelimArgs` is a new struct just for the "delimited arguments" case. It is now used in `MacCall` and `MacroDef`.
- `AttrArgs` is a renaming of the old `MacArgs` enum for the attribute macro case. Its `Delimited` variant now contains a `DelimArgs`.
Various other related things are renamed as well.
These changes make the code clearer, avoids several unreachable paths, and disallows the invalid values.

Use `token::Lit` in `ast::ExprKind::Lit`.
Instead of `ast::Lit`.
Literal lowering now happens at two different times. Expression literals are lowered when HIR is crated. Attribute literals are lowered during parsing.

This commit changes the language very slightly. Some programs that used
to not compile now will compile. This is because some invalid literals
that are removed by `cfg` or attribute macros will no longer trigger
errors. See this comment for more details:

Show note where the macro failed to match
When feeding the wrong tokens, it used to fail with a very generic error that wasn't very helpful. This change tries to help by noting where specifically the matching went wrong.
```rust
macro_rules! uwu {
(a a a b) => {};
}
uwu! { a a a c }
```
```diff
error: no rules expected the token `c`
--> macros.rs:5:14
|
1 | macro_rules! uwu {
| ---------------- when calling this macro
...
4 | uwu! { a a a c }
| ^ no rules expected this token in macro call
|
+note: while trying to match `b`
+ --> macros.rs:2:12

Delay `include_bytes` to AST lowering
Hopefully addresses #65818.
This PR introduces a new `ExprKind::IncludedBytes` which stores the path and bytes of a file included with `include_bytes!()`. We can then create a literal from the bytes during AST lowering, which means we don't need to escape the bytes into valid UTF8 which is the cause of most of the overhead of embedding large binary blobs.
Add the `#[derive_const]` attribute
Closes#102371. This is a minimal patchset for the attribute to work. There are no restrictions on what traits this attribute applies to.
r? `````@oli-obk`````
For now, we only collect the small info for the `best_failure`, but
using this tracker, we can easily extend it in the future to track
things with more performance overhead.
We cannot retry cases where the macro failed with a parser error that
was emitted already, as that would cause us to emit the same error to
the user twice.
This moves out the matching part of expansion into a new function. This
function will try to match the macro and return an error if it failed to
match. A tracker can be used to get more information about the matching.
Track where diagnostics were created.
This implements the `-Ztrack-diagnostics` flag, which uses `#[track_caller]` to track where diagnostics are created. It is meant as a debugging tool much like `-Ztreat-err-as-bug`.
For example, the following code...
```rust
struct A;
struct B;
fn main(){
let _: A = B;
}
```
...now emits the following error message:
```
error[E0308]: mismatched types
--> src\main.rs:5:16
|
5 | let _: A = B;
| - ^ expected struct `A`, found struct `B`
| |
| expected due to this
-Ztrack-diagnostics: created at compiler\rustc_infer\src\infer\error_reporting\mod.rs:2275:31
```
Add flag to forbid recovery in the parser
To start the effort of fixing #103534, this adds a new flag to the parser, which forbids the parser from doing recovery, which it shouldn't do in macros.
This doesn't add any new checks for recoveries yet and is just here to bikeshed the names for the functions here before doing more.

Only apply `ProceduralMasquerade` hack to older versions of `rental`
The latest version of `rental` (v0.5.6) contains a fix that allows it to
compile without relying on the pretty-print back-compat hack.
Hopefully, there are no longer any crates relying on the affected
versions of the (much less popular) `procedural-masquerade` crate. This
should allow us to target the pretty-print back-compat hack specifically
to older versions of `rental`, and specifically mention upgrading to
`rental` v0.5.6 in the lint message.
