Use lld with non-LLVM backends
On arm64, Cranelift used to produce object files that don't work with lld. This has since been fixed. The GCC backend should always produce object files that work with lld unless lld for whatever reason drops GCC support. Most of the other more niche backends don't use cg_ssa's linker code at all. If they do and don't work with lld, they can always disable lld usage using a cli argument.
Without this commit using cg_clif is by default in a non-trivial amount of cases a perf regression on Linux due to ld.bfd being a fair bit slower than lld. It is possible to explicitly enable it without this commit, but most users are unlikely to do this.

Set "symbol name" in raw-dylib import libraries to the decorated name
`windows-rs` received a bug report that mixing raw-dylib generated and the Windows SDK import libraries was causing linker failures: <https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs/issues/3285>
The root cause turned out to be #124958, that is we are not including the decorated name in the import library and so the import name type is also not being correctly set.
This change modifies the generation of import libraries to set the "symbol name" to the fully decorated name and correctly marks the import as being data vs function.
Note that this also required some changes to how the symbol is named within Rust: for MSVC we now need to use the decorated name but for MinGW we still need to use partially decorated (or undecorated) name.
Fixes#124958

bootstrap/codegen_ssa: ship llvm-strip and use it for -Cstrip
Fixes#131206.
- Includes `llvm-strip` (a symlink to `llvm-objcopy`) in the compiler dist artifact so that it can be used for `-Cstrip` instead of the system tooling.
- Uses `llvm-strip` instead of `/usr/bin/strip` for macOS. macOS needs a specific linker and the system one is preferred, hence #130781 but that doesn't work when cross-compiling, so use the `llvm-strip` utility instead.

mark some target features as 'forbidden' so they cannot be (un)set with -Ctarget-feature
The context for this is https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/116344: some target features change the way floats are passed between functions. Changing those target features is unsound as code compiled for the same target may now use different ABIs.
So this introduces a new concept of "forbidden" target features (on top of the existing "stable " and "unstable" categories), and makes it a hard error to (un)set such a target feature. For now, the x86 and ARM feature `soft-float` is on that list. We'll have to make some effort to collect more relevant features, and similar features from other targets, but that can happen after the basic infrastructure for this landed. (These features are being collected in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131799.)
I've made this a warning for now to give people some time to speak up if this would break something.

Remove unnecessary pub enum glob-imports from `rustc_middle::ty`
We used to have an idiom in the compiler where we'd prefix or suffix all the variants of an enum, for example `BoundRegionKind`, with something like `Br`, and then *glob-import* that enum variant directly.
`@noratrieb` brought this up, and I think that it's easier to read when we just use the normal style `EnumName::Variant`.
This PR is a bit large, but it's just naming.
The only somewhat opinionated change that this PR does is rename `BorrowKind::Imm` to `BorrowKind::Immutable` and same for the other variants. I think these enums are used sparingly enough that the extra length is fine.
r? `@noratrieb` or reassign
Reduce dependence on the target name
The target name can be anything with custom target specs. Matching on fields inside the target spec is much more robust than matching on the target name.
Also remove the unused is_builtin target spec field.
Generate correct symbols.o for sparc-unknown-none-elf
This fixes#130172 by selecting the correct ELF Machine type for sparc-unknown-none-elf (which has a baseline of SPARC V7).
The target name can be anything with custom target specs. Matching on

Move versioned Apple LLVM targets from `rustc_target` to `rustc_codegen_ssa`
Fully specified LLVM targets contain the OS version on macOS/iOS/tvOS/watchOS/visionOS, and this version depends on the deployment target environment variables like `MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET`, `IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET` etc.
We would like to move this to later in the compilation pipeline, both because it feels impure to access environment variables when fetching target information, but mostly because we need access to more information from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/130883 to do https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/118204. See also https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/129342#issuecomment-2335156119 for some discussion.
The first and second commit does the actual refactor, it should be a non-functional change, the third commit adds diagnostics for invalid deployment targets, which are now possible to do because we have access to the session.
Tested with the same commands as in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/130435.

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.
The OS version depends on the deployment target environment variables,
the access of which we want to move to later in the compilation pipeline
that has access to more information, for example `env_depinfo`.
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.
