last cycle, specifically:
Stabilized APIs:
* `fs::canonicalize`

For most parts, rumprun currently looks like NetBSD, as they share the same
libc and drivers. However, being a unikernel, rumprun does not support
process management, signals or virtual memory, so related functions
might fail at runtime. Stack guards are disabled exactly for this reason.
Code for rumprun is always cross-compiled, it uses always static
linking and needs a custom linker.
This commit stabilizes the `std::time` module and the `Duration` type.
`Duration::span` remains unstable, and the `Display` implementation for
`Duration` has been removed as it is still being reworked and all trait
implementations for stable types are de facto stable.
This is a [breaking-change] to those using `Duration`'s `Display`
implementation.
I'm opening this PR as a platform for discussion - there may be some method renaming to do as part of the stabilization process.

This commit removes all morestack support from the compiler which entails:
* Segmented stacks are no longer emitted in codegen.
* We no longer build or distribute libmorestack.a
* The `stack_exhausted` lang item is no longer required
The only current use of the segmented stack support in LLVM is to detect stack
overflow. This is no longer really required, however, because we already have
guard pages for all threads and registered signal handlers watching for a
segfault on those pages (to print out a stack overflow message). Additionally,
major platforms (aka Windows) already don't use morestack.
This means that Rust is by default less likely to catch stack overflows because
if a function takes up more than one page of stack space it won't hit the guard
page. This is what the purpose of morestack was (to catch this case), but it's
better served with stack probes which have more cross platform support and no
runtime support necessary. Until LLVM supports this for all platform it looks
like morestack isn't really buying us much.
cc #16012 (still need stack probes)
Closes#26458 (a drive-by fix to help diagnostics on stack overflow)
This commit removes the injection of `std::env::args()` from `--test` expanded
code, relying on the test runner itself to call this funciton. This is more
hygienic because we can't assume that `std` exists at the top layer all the
time, and it meaks the injected test module entirely self contained.
This can fail on linux for various reasons, such as the /proc filesystem not
being mounted. There are already many cases where we can't set up stack guards,
so just don't worry about this case and communicate that no guard was enabled.
I've confirmed that this allows the compiler to run in a chroot without /proc
mounted.
Closes#22642
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1040][rfc] which is a redesign of the
currently-unstable `Duration` type. The API of the type has been scaled back to
be more conservative and it also no longer supports negative durations.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1040-duration-reform.md
The inner `duration` module of the `time` module has now been hidden (as
`Duration` is reexported) and the feature name for this type has changed from
`std_misc` to `duration`. All APIs accepting durations have also been audited to
take a more flavorful feature name instead of `std_misc`.
Closes#24874
Much of this code hasn't been updated in quite some time and this commit does a
small audit of the functionality:
* Implementation functions now centralize all functionality on a locally defined
`Thread` type.
* The `detach` method has been removed in favor of a `Drop` implementation. This
notably fixes leaking thread handles on Windows.
* The `Thread` structure is now appropriately annotated with `Send` and `Sync`
automatically on Windows and in a custom fashion on Unix.
* The unsafety of creating a thread has been pushed out to the right boundaries
now.
Closes#24442
This commit stabilizes the old `io::Error::from_os_error` after being renamed to
use the `raw_os_error` terminology instead. This function is often useful when
writing bindings to OS functions but only actually converting to an I/O error at
a later point.
Linking __pthread_get_minstack, even weakly, was causing Debian’s
dpkg-shlibdeps to detect an unnecessarily strict versioned dependency
on libc6.
Closes#23628.

This function is the current replacement for `std::old_io::timer` which will
soon be deprecated. This function is unstable and has its own feature gate as it
does not yet have an RFC nor has it existed for very long.
... to convert between Box and raw pointers. E. g. use
```
let b: Box<Foo> = Box::from_raw(p);
```
instead of
```
let b: Box<Foo> = mem::transmute(p);
```
Patch also changes closure release code in `src/libstd/sys/unix/thread.rs`
when `pthread_create` failed. Raw pointer was transmuted to box of
`FnOnce()` instead of `Thunk`. This code was probably never executed,
because `pthread_create` rarely fails in practice.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 592][r592] and [RFC 840][r840]. These
two RFCs tweak the behavior of `CString` and add a new `CStr` unsized slice type
to the module.
[r592]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0592-c-str-deref.md
[r840]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0840-no-panic-in-c-string.md
The new `CStr` type is only constructable via two methods:
1. By `deref`'ing from a `CString`
2. Unsafely via `CStr::from_ptr`
The purpose of `CStr` is to be an unsized type which is a thin pointer to a
`libc::c_char` (currently it is a fat pointer slice due to implementation
limitations). Strings from C can be safely represented with a `CStr` and an
appropriate lifetime as well. Consumers of `&CString` should now consume `&CStr`
instead to allow producers to pass in C-originating strings instead of just
Rust-allocated strings.
A new constructor was added to `CString`, `new`, which takes `T: IntoBytes`
instead of separate `from_slice` and `from_vec` methods (both have been
deprecated in favor of `new`). The `new` method returns a `Result` instead of
panicking. The error variant contains the relevant information about where the
error happened and bytes (if present). Conversions are provided to the
`io::Error` and `old_io::IoError` types via the `FromError` trait which
translate to `InvalidInput`.
This is a breaking change due to the modification of existing `#[unstable]` APIs
and new deprecation, and more detailed information can be found in the two RFCs.
Notable breakage includes:
* All construction of `CString` now needs to use `new` and handle the outgoing
`Result`.
* Usage of `CString` as a byte slice now explicitly needs a `.as_bytes()` call.
* The `as_slice*` methods have been removed in favor of just having the
`as_bytes*` methods.

This commit makes several changes to `std::thread` in preparation for
final stabilization:
* It removes the ability to handle panics from `scoped` children; see
#20807 for discussion
* It adds a `JoinHandle` structure, now returned from `spawn`, which
makes it possible to join on children that do not share data from
their parent's stack. The child is automatically detached when the
handle is dropped, and the handle cannot be copied due to Posix
semantics.
* It moves all static methods from `std:🧵:Thread` to free
functions in `std::thread`. This was done in part because, due to the
above changes, there are effectively no direct `Thread` constructors,
and the static methods have tended to feel a bit awkward.
* Adds an `io::Result` around the `Builder` methods `scoped` and
`spawn`, making it possible to handle OS errors when creating
threads. The convenience free functions entail an unwrap.
* Stabilizes the entire module. Despite the fact that the API is
changing somewhat here, this is part of a long period of baking and
the changes are addressing all known issues prior to alpha2. If
absolutely necessary, further breaking changes can be made prior to beta.
Closes#20807
[breaking-change]
This commit is part of a series that introduces a `std::thread` API to
replace `std::task`.
In the new API, `spawn` returns a `JoinGuard`, which by default will
join the spawned thread when dropped. It can also be used to join
explicitly at any time, returning the thread's result. Alternatively,
the spawned thread can be explicitly detached (so no join takes place).
As part of this change, Rust processes now terminate when the main
thread exits, even if other detached threads are still running, moving
Rust closer to standard threading models. This new behavior may break code
that was relying on the previously implicit join-all.
In addition to the above, the new thread API also offers some built-in
support for building blocking abstractions in user space; see the module
doc for details.
Closes#18000
[breaking-change]
This commit merges the `rustrt` crate into `std`, undoing part of the
facade. This merger continues the paring down of the runtime system.
Code relying on the public API of `rustrt` will break; some of this API
is now available through `std::rt`, but is likely to change and/or be
removed very soon.
