Improve missing_abi lint
This is for the migration lint for https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3722
It is not yet marked as an edition migration lint, because `Edition2027` doesn't exist yet.
The lint now includes a machine applicable suggestion:
```
warning: extern declarations without an explicit ABI are deprecated

3 | extern fn a() {}
| ^^^^^^ help: explicitly specify the C ABI: `extern "C"`

Fix validation when lowering `?` trait bounds
Pass the unlowered (`rustc_hir`) polarity to `lower_poly_trait_ref`.
This allows us to actually *validate* that generic args are actually valid on `?Trait` paths. This actually regressed in #113671 because that PR changed the behavior where we were inadvertently re-lowering paths as `BoundPolarity::Positive`, which was also coincidentally the only place we were enforcing the generics on `?Trait` paths were correct.
Fix `target_os` for `mipsel-sony-psx`
Previously set to `target_os = "none"` and `target_env = "psx"` in [the PR introducing the target](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/102689/), but although the Playstation 1 is _close_ to a bare metal target in some regards, it's still very much an operating system, so we should instead set `target_os = "psx"`.
This also matches the `mipsel-sony-psp` target, which sets `target_os = "psp"`.
CC target maintainer ``@ayrtonm.``
If there's any code out there that uses `cfg(target_env = "psx")`, they can use `cfg(any(target_os = "psx", target_env = "psx"))` until they bump their MSRV to a version where this is fully fixed.
Mark `simplify_aggregate_to_copy` mir-opt as unsound
Mark the `simplify_aggregate_to_copy` mir-opt added in #128299 as unsound as it seems to miscompile the MCVE reported in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/132353. The mir-opt can be re-enabled once this case is fixed.
```rs
fn pop_min(mut score2head: Vec<Option<usize>>) -> Option<usize> {
loop {
if let Some(col) = score2head[0] {
score2head[0] = None;
return Some(col);
}
}
}
fn main() {
let min = pop_min(vec![Some(1)]);
println!("min: {:?}", min);
// panic happens here on beta in release mode
// but not in debug mode
min.unwrap();
}
```
This MCVE is included as a `run-pass` ui regression test in the first commit. I built the ui test with a nightly manually, and can reproduce the behavioral difference with `-C opt-level=0` and `-C opt-level=1`. Locally, this ui test will fail unless it was run on a compiler built with the second commit marking the mir-opt as unsound thus disabling it by default.
This PR **partially reverts** commit e7386b3, reversing changes made to 02b1be1. The mir-opt implementation is just marked as unsound but **not** reverted to make reland reviews easier. Test changes are **reverted if they were not pure additions**. Tests added by the original PR received `-Z unsound-mir-opts` compile-flags.

Add a new 'pc' option to -Z branch-protection for aarch64 that
enables the use of PC as a diversifier in PAC branch protection code.
When the pauth-lr target feature is enabled in combination
with -Z branch-protection=pac-ret,pc, the new 9.5-a instructions
(pacibsppc, retaasppc, etc) will be generated.
The initial `minicore` is intentionally super minimal and contains an
incomplete subset of `core` items, and explicitly not items from `alloc`
or `std`-only items.

Try to point out when edition 2024 lifetime capture rules cause borrowck issues
Lifetime capture rules in 2024 are modified to capture more lifetimes, which sometimes lead to some non-local borrowck errors. This PR attempts to link these back together with a useful note pointing out the capture rule changes.
This is not a blocking concern, but I'd appreciate feedback (though, again, I'd like to stress that I don't want to block this PR on this): I'm worried about this note drowning in the sea of other diagnostics that borrowck emits. I was tempted to change the level of the note to `.span_warn` just so it would show up in a different color. Thoughts?

Make sure `type_param_predicates` resolves correctly for RPITIT
After #132194, we end up lowering the item bounds for an RPITIT in an `ItemCtxt` whose def id is the *synthetic GAT*, not the opaque type from the HIR.
This means that when we're resolving a shorthand projection like `T::Assoc`, we call the `type_param_predicates` function with the `item_def_id` of the *GAT* and not the opaque. That function operates on the HIR, and is not designed to work with the `Node::Synthetic` that gets fed for items synthesized by the compiler...
This PR reuses the trick we use elsewhere in lowering, where we intercept whether an item comes from RPITIT lowering, and forwards the query off to the correct item.
Fixes#132372
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.
rustdoc: make doctest span tweak a 2024 edition change
Fixes#132203
This is a compatibility hack, because I think the new behavior is better. When an A `include_str!` B, and B `include_str!` C, the path to C should be resolved relative to B, not A. That's how `include!` itself works, so that's how `include_str!` with should work.
Remap impl-trait lifetimes on HIR instead of AST lowering
Current AST->HIR lowering goes out of its way to remap lifetimes for opaque types. This is complicated and leaks into upstream and downstream code.
This PR stops trying to be clever during lowering, and prefers to do this remapping during the HIR->ty lowering. The remapping computation easily fits into the bound var resolution code. Its result can be used in by `generics_of` and `hir_ty_lowering::new_opaque` to add the proper parameters and arguments.
See an example on the doc for query `opaque_captured_lifetimes`.

Reject generic self types.
The RFC for arbitrary self types v2 declares that we should reject "generic" self types. This commit does so.
The definition of "generic" was unclear in the RFC, but has been explored in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/129147
and the conclusion is that "generic" means any `self` type which is a type parameter defined on the method itself, or references to such a type.
This approach was chosen because other definitions of "generic" don't work. Specifically,
* we can't filter out generic type _arguments_, because that would filter out Rc<Self> and all the other types of smart pointer we want to support;
* we can't filter out all type params, because Self itself is a type param, and because existing Rust code depends on other type params declared on the type (as opposed to the method).
This PR decides to make a new error code for this case, instead of reusing the existing E0307 error. This makes the code a bit more complex, but it seems we have an opportunity to provide specific diagnostics for this case so we should do so.
This PR filters out generic self types whether or not the 'arbitrary self types' feature is enabled. However, it's believed that it can't have any effect on code which uses stable Rust, since there are no stable traits which can be used to indicate a valid generic receiver type, and thus it would have been impossible to write code which could trigger this new error case. It is however possible that this could break existing code which uses either of the unstable `arbitrary_self_types` or `receiver_trait` features. This breakage is intentional; as we move arbitrary self types towards stabilization we don't want to continue to support generic such types.
This PR adds lots of extra tests to arbitrary-self-from-method-substs. Most of these are ways to trigger a "type mismatch" error which 9b82580c73/compiler/rustc_hir_typeck/src/method/confirm.rs (L519) hopes can be minimized by filtering out generics in this way. We remove a FIXME from confirm.rs suggesting that we make this change. It's still possible to cause type mismatch errors, and a subsequent PR may be able to improve diagnostics in this area, but it's harder to cause these errors without contrived uses of the turbofish.

Collect item bounds for RPITITs from trait where clauses just like associated types
We collect item bounds from trait where clauses for *associated types*, i.e. this:
```rust
trait Foo
where
Self::Assoc: Send
{
type Assoc;
}
```
Becomes this:
```rust
trait Foo {
type Assoc: Send;
}
```
Today, with RPITITs/AFIT and return-type notation, we don't do that, i.e.:
```rust
trait Foo where Self::method(..): Send {
fn method() -> impl Sized;
}
fn is_send(_: impl Send) {}
fn test<T: Foo>() {
is_send(T::method());
}
```
...which fails on nightly today.
Turns out it's super easy to fix this, and we just need to use the `associated_type_bounds` lowering function in `explicit_item_bounds_with_filter`, which has that logic baked in.
Hack out effects support for old solver
Opening this for vibes ✨
Turns out that a basic, somewhat incomplete implementation of host effects is achievable in the old trait solver pretty easily. This should be sufficient for us to use in the standard library itself.
Regarding incompleteness, maybe we should always treat host predicates as ambiguous in intercrate mode (at least in the old solver) to avoid any worries about accidental impl overlap or something.

Lint against getting pointers from immediately dropped temporaries
Fixes#123613
## Changes:
1. New lint: `dangling_pointers_from_temporaries`. Is a generalization of `temporary_cstring_as_ptr` for more types and more ways to get a temporary.
2. `temporary_cstring_as_ptr` is removed and marked as renamed to `dangling_pointers_from_temporaries`.
3. `clippy::temporary_cstring_as_ptr` is marked as renamed to `dangling_pointers_from_temporaries`.
4. Fixed a false positive[^fp] for when the pointer is not actually dangling because of lifetime extension for function/method call arguments.
5. `core::cell::Cell` is now `rustc_diagnostic_item = "Cell"`
## Questions:
- [ ] Instead of manually checking for a list of known methods and diagnostic items, maybe add some sort of annotation to those methods in library and check for the presence of that annotation? https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/128985#issuecomment-2318714312
## Known limitations:
### False negatives[^fn]:
See the comments in `compiler/rustc_lint/src/dangling.rs`
1. Method calls that are not checked for:
- `temporary_unsafe_cell.get()`
- `temporary_sync_unsafe_cell.get()`
2. Ways to get a temporary that are not recognized:
- `owning_temporary.field`
- `owning_temporary[index]`
3. No checks for ref-to-ptr conversions:
- `&raw [mut] temporary`
- `&temporary as *(const|mut) _`
- `ptr::from_ref(&temporary)` and friends

This commit adds a new rustc target feature named `wide-arithmetic` for
WebAssembly targets. This corresponds to the [wide-arithmetic] proposal
for WebAssembly which adds new instructions catered towards accelerating
integer arithmetic larger than 64-bits. This proposal to WebAssembly is
not standard yet so this new feature is flagged as an unstable target
feature. Additionally Rust's LLVM version doesn't support this new
feature yet since support will first be added in LLVM 20, so the
feature filtering logic for LLVM is updated to handle this.
I'll also note that I'm not currently planning to add wasm-specific
intrinsics to `std::arch::wasm32` at this time. The currently proposed
instructions are all accessible through `i128` or `u128`-based
operations which Rust already supports, so intrinsic shouldn't be
necessary to get access to these new instructions.

Remove `ObligationCause::span()` method
I think it's an incredibly confusing footgun to expose both `obligation_cause.span` and `obligation_cause.span()`. Especially because `ObligationCause::span()` (the method) seems to just be hacking around a single quirk in the way we set up obligation causes for match arms.
First commit removes the need for that hack, with only one diagnostic span changing (but IMO not really getting worse -- I'd argue that it was already confusing).
Much like the previous commit.
I think the removal of "the token" in each message is fine here. There
are many more error messages that mention tokens without saying "the
token" than those that do say it.
By using `token_descr`, as is done for many other errors, we can get
slightly better descriptions in error messages, e.g.
"macro expansion ignores token `let` and any following" becomes
"macro expansion ignores keyword `let` and any tokens following".
This will be more important once invisible delimiters start being
mentioned in error messages -- without this commit, that leads to error
messages such as "error at ``" because invisible delimiters are
pretty printed as an empty string.
this makes it much easier to understand test failures.

Cleanup: Move an impl-Trait check from AST validation to AST lowering
Namely the one that rejects `impl Trait` in qself types and non-final path segments.
There's no good reason to perform this during AST validation.
We have better infrastructure in place in the AST lowerer (`ImplTraitContext`).
This shaves off a lot of code.
We now lower `impl Trait` in bad positions to `{type error}` which allows us to
remove a special case from HIR ty lowering.
Coincidentally fixes#126725. Well, it only *masks* it by passing `{type error}` to HIR analysis instead of a "bad" opaque. I was able to find a new reproducer for it. See the issue.

Replace some LLVMRust wrappers with calls to the LLVM C API
This PR removes the LLVMRust wrapper functions for getting/setting linkage and visibility, and replaces them with direct calls to the corresponding functions in LLVM's C API.
To make this convenient and sound, two pieces of supporting code have also been added:
- A simple proc-macro that derives `TryFrom<u32>` for fieldless enums
- A wrapper type for C enum values returned by LLVM functions, to ensure soundness if LLVM returns an enum value we don't know about
In a few places, the use of safe wrapper functions means that an `unsafe` block is no longer needed, so the affected code has changed its indentation level.
Fixes#132203
This is a compatibility hack, because I think the new behavior is better.
When an A `include_str!` B, and B `include_str!` C, the path to C should
be resolved relative to B, not A. That's how `include!` itself works,
so that's how `include_str!` with should work.

It is currently not supported by the Linux hwcap and so we cannot add runtime feature detection for it at this time.

(Big performance change) Do not run lints that cannot emit
Before this change, adding a lint was a difficult matter because it always had some overhead involved. This was because all lints would run, no matter their default level, or if the user had `#![allow]`ed them. This PR changes that. This change would improve both the Rust lint infrastructure and Clippy, but Clippy will see the most benefit, as it has about 900 registered lints (and growing!)
So yeah, with this little patch we filter all lints pre-linting, and remove any lint that is either:
- Manually `#![allow]`ed in the whole crate,
- Allowed in the command line, or
- Not manually enabled with `#[warn]` or similar, and its default level is `Allow`
As some lints **need** to run, this PR also adds **loadbearing lints**. On a lint declaration, you can use the ``@eval_always` = true` marker to label it as loadbearing. A loadbearing lint will never be filtered (it will always run)

Deny calls to non-`#[const_trait]` methods in MIR constck
This is a (potentially temporary) fix that closes off the mismatch in assumptions between MIR constck and typeck which does the const traits checking. Before this PR, MIR constck assumed that typeck correctly handled all calls to trait methods in const contexts if effects is enabled. That is not true because typeck only correctly handles callees that are const. For non-const callees (such as methods in a non-const_trait), typeck had never created an error.
45089ec19e/compiler/rustc_hir_typeck/src/callee.rs (L876-L877)
I called this potentially temporary because the const checks could be moved to HIR entirely. Alongside the recent refactor in const stability checks where that component could be placed would need more discussion. (cc ```@compiler-errors``` ```@RalfJung)```
Tests are updated, mainly due to traits not being const in core, so tests that call them correctly error.
This fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/project-const-traits/issues/12.
Const stability checks v2
The const stability system has served us well ever since `const fn` were first stabilized. It's main feature is that it enforces *recursive* validity -- a stable const fn cannot internally make use of unstable const features without an explicit marker in the form of `#[rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable]`. This is done to make sure that we don't accidentally expose unstable const features on stable in a way that would be hard to take back. As part of this, it is enforced that a `#[rustc_const_stable]` can only call `#[rustc_const_stable]` functions. However, some problems have been coming up with increased usage:
- It is baffling that we have to mark private or even unstable functions as `#[rustc_const_stable]` when they are used as helpers in regular stable `const fn`, and often people will rather add `#[rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable]` instead which was not our intention.
- The system has several gaping holes: a private `const fn` without stability attributes whose inherited stability (walking up parent modules) is `#[stable]` is allowed to call *arbitrary* unstable const operations, but can itself be called from stable `const fn`. Similarly, `#[allow_internal_unstable]` on a macro completely bypasses the recursive nature of the check.
Fundamentally, the problem is that we have *three* disjoint categories of functions, and not enough attributes to distinguish them:
1. const-stable functions
2. private/unstable functions that are meant to be callable from const-stable functions
3. functions that can make use of unstable const features
Functions in the first two categories cannot use unstable const features and they can only call functions from the first two categories.
This PR implements the following system:
- `#[rustc_const_stable]` puts functions in the first category. It may only be applied to `#[stable]` functions.
- `#[rustc_const_unstable]` by default puts functions in the third category. The new attribute `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` can be added to such a function to move it into the second category.
- `const fn` without a const stability marker are in the second category if they are still unstable. They automatically inherit the feature gate for regular calls, it can now also be used for const-calls.
Also, all the holes mentioned above have been closed. There's still one potential hole that is hard to avoid, which is when MIR building automatically inserts calls to a particular function in stable functions -- which happens in the panic machinery. Those need to be manually marked `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` to be sure they follow recursive const stability. But that's a fairly rare and special case so IMO it's fine.
The net effect of this is that a `#[unstable]` or unmarked function can be constified simply by marking it as `const fn`, and it will then be const-callable from stable `const fn` and subject to recursive const stability requirements. If it is publicly reachable (which implies it cannot be unmarked), it will be const-unstable under the same feature gate. Only if the function ever becomes `#[stable]` does it need a `#[rustc_const_unstable]` or `#[rustc_const_stable]` marker to decide if this should also imply const-stability.
Adding `#[rustc_const_unstable]` is only needed for (a) functions that need to use unstable const lang features (including intrinsics), or (b) `#[stable]` functions that are not yet intended to be const-stable. Adding `#[rustc_const_stable]` is only needed for functions that are actually meant to be directly callable from stable const code. `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` is used to mark intrinsics as const-callable and for `#[rustc_const_unstable]` functions that are actually called from other, exposed-on-stable `const fn`. No other attributes are required.
Also see the updated dev-guide at https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-dev-guide/pull/2098.
I think in the future we may want to tweak this further, so that in the hopefully common case where a public function's const-stability just exactly mirrors its regular stability, we never have to add any attribute. But right now, once the function is stable this requires `#[rustc_const_stable]`.
### Open question
There is one point I could see we might want to do differently, and that is putting `#[rustc_const_unstable]` functions (but not intrinsics) in category 2 by default, and requiring an extra attribute for `#[rustc_const_not_exposed_on_stable]` or so. This would require a bunch of extra annotations, but would have the advantage that turning a `#[rustc_const_unstable]` into `#[rustc_const_stable]` will never change the way the function is const-checked. Currently, we often discover in the const stabilization PR that a function needs some other unstable const things, and then we rush to quickly deal with that. In this alternative universe, we'd work towards getting rid of the `rustc_const_not_exposed_on_stable` before stabilization, and once that is done stabilization becomes a trivial matter. `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` would then only be used for intrinsics.
I think I like this idea, but might want to do it in a follow-up PR, as it will need a whole bunch of annotations in the standard library. Also, we probably want to convert all const intrinsics to the "new" form (`#[rustc_intrinsic]` instead of an `extern` block) before doing this to avoid having to deal with two different ways of declaring intrinsics.

Run the full stage 2 `run-make` test suite in `x86_64-gnu-debug`
Run the full `run-make` test suite in the `x86_64-gnu-debug` CI job. This is currently the *only* CI job where `//@ needs-force-clang-based-test` will be satisfied, so some `run-make` tests will literally never be run otherwise. Before this PR, the CI job only ran `run-make` tests which contains the substring `clang` in its test name, which is both (1) a footgun because it's very easy to forget and (2) it masks tests that would otherwise fail (even failing to compile) because the test is skipped if doesn't have a `clang` in its test name.
With the environment of `x86_64-gnu-debug`, two `run-make` tests failed before this PR:
1. `tests/run-make/issue-84395-lto-embed-bitcode/rmake.rs`: this was broken for a long time because `objcopy` in llvm bin tools was renamed to `llvm-objcopy`. This test was converted into a rmake.rs test, rather straight forward.
2. `tests/run-make/cross-lang-lto-riscv-abi/rmake.rs`: this was broken for a long time and never worked. The old version inspected human-readable output of `llvm-readobj --file-header` looking for substring `EF_RISCV_FLOAT_ABI_DOUBLE`, but the human-readable output will only contain something like `Flags: 0x5, RVC, double-float ABI`, hence it will never match. This test was fixed by instead using the `object` crate to actually decode the ELF headers looking for the specific `e_flags` based on reading the RISCV ELF psABI docs.

Emit future-incompatibility lint when calling/declaring functions with vectors that require missing target feature
On some architectures, vector types may have a different ABI depending on whether the relevant target features are enabled. (The ABI when the feature is disabled is often not specified, but LLVM implements some de-facto ABI.)
As discussed in https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/235, this turns out to very easily lead to unsound code.
This commit makes it a post-monomorphization error to declare or call functions using those vector types in a context in which the corresponding target features are disabled, if using an ABI for which the difference is relevant. This ensures that these functions are always called with a consistent ABI.

Represent trait constness as a distinct predicate

# Tl;dr:
* This PR removes the bulk of the old effect desugaring.
* This PR reimplements most of the effect desugaring as a new predicate and set of a couple queries. I believe it majorly simplifies the implementation and allows us to move forward more easily on its implementation.
I'm putting this up both as a request for comments and a vibe-check, but also as a legitimate implementation that I'd like to see land (though no rush of course on that last part).
## Background
### Early days
Once upon a time, we represented trait constness in the param-env and in `TraitPredicate`. This was very difficult to implement correctly; it had bugs and was also incomplete; I don't think this was anyone's fault though, it was just the limit of experimental knowledge we had at that point.
Dealing with `~const` within predicates themselves meant dealing with constness all throughout the trait solver. This was difficult to keep track of, and afaict was not handled well with all the corners of candidate assembly.
Specifically, we had to (in various places) remap constness according to the param-env constness:
574b64a97f/compiler/rustc_trait_selection/src/traits/select/mod.rs (L1498)
This was annoying and manual and also error prone.
### Beginning of the effects desugaring
Later on, #113210 reimplemented a new desugaring for const traits via a `<const HOST: bool>` predicate. This essentially "reified" the const checking and separated it from any of the remapping or separate tracking in param-envs. For example, if I was in a const-if-const environment, but I wanted to call a trait that was non-const, this reification would turn the constness mismatch into a simple *type* mismatch of the effect parameter.
While this was a monumental step towards straightening out const trait checking in the trait system, it had its own issues, since that meant that the constness of a trait (or any item within it, like an associated type) was *early-bound*. This essentially meant that `<T as Trait>::Assoc` was *distinct* from `<T as ~const Trait>::Assoc`, which was bad.
### Associated-type bound based effects desugaring
After this, #120639 implemented a new effects desugaring. This used an associated type to more clearly represent the fact that the constness is not an input parameter of a trait, but a property that could be computed of a impl. The write-up linked in that PR explains it better than I could.
However, I feel like it really reached the limits of what can comfortably be expressed in terms of associated type and trait calculus. Also, `<const HOST: bool>` remains a synthetic const parameter, which is observable in nested items like RPITs and closures, and comes with tons of its own hacks in the astconv and middle layer.
For example, there are pieces of unintuitive code that are needed to represent semantics like elaboration, and eventually will be needed to make error reporting intuitive, and hopefully in the future assist us in implementing built-in traits (eventually we'll want something like `~const Fn` trait bounds!).
elaboration hack: 8069f8d17a/compiler/rustc_type_ir/src/elaborate.rs (L133-L195)
trait bound remapping hack for diagnostics: 8069f8d17a/compiler/rustc_trait_selection/src/error_reporting/traits/fulfillment_errors.rs (L2370-L2413)
I want to be clear that I don't think this is a issue of implementation quality or anything like that; I think it's simply a very clear sign that we're using types and traits in a way that they're not fundamentally supposed to be used, especially given that constness deserves to be represented as a first-class concept.
### What now?
This PR implements a new desugaring for const traits. Specifically, it introduces a `HostEffect` predicate to represent the obligation an impl is const, rather than using associated type bounds and the compat trait that exists for effects today.
### `HostEffect` predicate
A `HostEffect` clause has two parts -- the `TraitRef` we're trying to prove, and a `HostPolarity::{Maybe, Const}`.
`HostPolarity::Const` corresponds to `T: const Trait` bounds, which must *always* be proven as const, and which can be written in any context. These are lowered directly into the predicates of an item, since they're not "context-specific".
On the other hand, `HostPolarity::Maybe` corresponds to `T: ~const Trait` bounds which must only exist in a conditionally-const context like a method in a `#[const_trait]`, or a `const fn` free function. We do not lower these immediately into the predicates of an item; instead, we collect them into a new query called the **`const_conditions`**. These are the set of trait refs that we need to prove have const implementations for an item to be const.
Notably, they're represented as bare (poly) trait refs because they are meant to be paired back together with a `HostPolarity` when they're being registered in typeck (see next section).
For example, given:
```rust
const fn foo<T: ~const A + const B>() {}
```
`foo`'s const conditions would contain `T: A`, but not `T: B`. On the flip side, foo's predicates (`predicates_of`) query would contain `HostEffect(T: B, HostPolarity::Const)` but not `HostEffect(T: A, HostPolarity::Maybe)` since we don't need to prove that predicate in a non-const environment (and it's not even the right predicate to prove in an unconditionally const environment).
### Type checking const bodies
When type checking bodies in HIR, when we encounter a call expression, we additionally register the callee item's const conditions with the `HostPolarity` from the body we're typechecking (`Const` for unconditionally const things like `const`/`static` items, and `Maybe` for conditionally const things like const fns; and we don't register `HostPolarity` predicates for non-const bodies).
When type-checking a conditionally const body, we augment its param-env with `HostEffect(..., Maybe)` predicates.
### Checking that const impls are WF
We extend the logic in `compare_method_predicate_entailment` to also check the const-conditions of the impl method, to make sure that we error for:
```rust
#[const_trait] Bar {}
#[const_trait] trait Foo {
fn method<T: Bar>();
}
impl Foo for () {
fn method<T: ~const Bar>() {} // stronger assumption!
}
```
We also extend the WF check for impls to register the const conditions of the trait that is being implemented. This is to make sure we error for:
```rust
#[const_trait] trait Bar {}
#[const_trait] trait Foo<T> where T: ~const Bar {}
impl<T> const Foo<T> for () {}
//~^ `T: ~const Bar` is missing!
```
### Proving a `HostEffect` predicate
We have several ways of proving a `HostEffect` predicate:
1. Matching a `HostEffect` predicate from the param-env
2. From an impl - we do impl selection very similar to confirming a trait goal, except we filter for only const impls, and we additionally register the impl's const conditions (i.e. the impl's `~const` where clauses).
Later I expect that we will add more built-in implementations for things like `Fn`.
## What next?
After this PR, I'd like to split out the work more so it can proceed in parallel and probably amongst others that are not me.
* Register `HostEffect` goal for places in HIR typeck that correspond to call terminators, like autoderef.
* Make traits in libstd const again.
* Probably need to impl host effect preds in old solver.
* Implement built-in `HostEffect` rules for traits like `Fn`.
* Rip out const checking from MIR altogether.
## So what?
This ends up being super convenient basically everywhere in the compiler. Due to the design of the new trait solver, we end up having an almost parallel structure to the existing trait and projection predicates for assembling `HostEffect` predicates; adding new candidates and especially new built-in implementations is now basically trivial, and it's quite straightforward to understand the confirmation logic for these predicates.
Same with diagnostics reporting; since we have predicates which represent the obligation to prove an impl is const, we can simplify and make these diagnostics richer without having to write a ton of logic to intercept and rewrite the existing `Compat` trait errors.
Finally, it gives us a much more straightforward path for supporting the const effect on the old trait solver. I'm personally quite passionate about getting const trait support into the hands of users without having to wait until the new solver lands[^1], so I think after this PR lands we can begin to gauge how difficult it would be to implement constness in the old trait solver too. This PR will not do this yet.

Remove the `Arc` rt::init allocation for thread info
Removes an allocation pre-main by just not storing anything in std:🧵:Thread for the main thread.
- The thread name can just be a hard coded literal, as was done in #123433.
- Storing ThreadId and Parker in a static that is initialized once at startup. This uses SyncUnsafeCell and MaybeUninit as this is quite performance critical and we don't need synchronization or to store a tag value and possibly leave in a panic.
Consider param-env candidates even if they have errors
I added this logic in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/106309, but frankly I don't know why -- the logic was a very large hammer. It seems like recent changes to error tainting has made that no longer necessary.
Ideally we'd rework the way we handle error reporting in all of candidate assembly to be a bit more responsible; we're just suppressing candidates all willy-nilly and it leads to mysterious *other* errors cropping up, like the one that #132082 originally wanted to fix.
**N.B.** This has the side-effect of turning a failed resolution like `where Missing: Sized` into a trivial where clause that matches all types, but also I don't think it really matters?
I'm putting this up as an alternative to #132082, since that PR doesn't address the case when one desugars the APIT into a regular type param.

Taking a raw ref (`&raw (const|mut)`) of a deref of pointer (`*ptr`) is always safe
T-opsem decided in https://github.com/rust-lang/reference/pull/1387 that `*ptr` is only unsafe if the place is accessed. This means that taking a raw ref of a deref expr is always safe, since it doesn't constitute a read.
This also relaxes the `DEREF_NULLPTR` lint to stop warning in the case of raw ref of a deref'd nullptr, and updates its docs to reflect that change in the UB specification.
This does not change the behavior of `addr_of!((*ptr).field)`, since field projections still require the projection is in-bounds.
I'm on the fence whether this requires an FCP, since it's something that is guaranteed by the reference you could ostensibly call this a bugfix since we were counting truly safe operations as unsafe. Perhaps someone on opsem has a strong opinion? cc `@rust-lang/opsem`

Rename Receiver -> LegacyReceiver
As part of the "arbitrary self types v2" project, we are going to replace the current `Receiver` trait with a new mechanism based on a new, different `Receiver` trait.
This PR renames the old trait to get it out the way. Naming is hard. Options considered included:
* HardCodedReceiver (because it should only be used for things in the standard library, and hence is sort-of hard coded)
* LegacyReceiver
* TargetLessReceiver
* OldReceiver
These are all bad names, but fortunately this will be temporary. Assuming the new mechanism proceeds to stabilization as intended, the legacy trait will be removed altogether.
Although we expect this trait to be used only in the standard library, we suspect it may be in use elsehwere, so we're landing this change separately to identify any surprising breakages.
It's known that this trait is used within the Rust for Linux project; a patch is in progress to remove their dependency.
