This involves lots of breaking changes. There are two big changes that
force changes. The first is that the bitflag types now don't
automatically implement normal derive traits, so we need to derive them
manually.
Additionally, bitflags now have a hidden inner type by default, which
breaks our custom derives. The bitflags docs recommend using the impl
form in these cases, which I did.
- Sort dependencies and features sections.
- Add `tidy` markers to the sorted sections so they stay sorted.
- Remove empty `[lib`] sections.
- Remove "See more keys..." comments.
Excluded files:
- rustc_codegen_{cranelift,gcc}, because they're external.
- rustc_lexer, because it has external use.
- stable_mir, because it has external use.
Fluent, with all the icu4x it brings in, takes quite some time to
compile. `fluent_messages!` is only needed in further downstream rustc
crates, but is blocking more upstream crates like `rustc_index`. By
splitting it out, we allow `rustc_macros` to be compiled earlier, which
speeds up `x check compiler` by about 5 seconds (and even more after the
needless dependency on `serde_json` is removed from
`rustc_data_structures`).
This was broken because the synthetic object files produced by rustc
were for 64-bit AArch64, which caused link failures when combined with
32-bit ILP32 object files.
This PR updates the object crate to 0.30.1 which adds support for
generating ILP32 AArch64 object files.
Previously attempting to link universal libraries into libraries (but not binaries) would produce an error that "File too small to be an archive". This works around this by using `object` to extract a library for the target platform when passed a univeral library.
Fixes#55235
This commit improves the LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support in
the Rust compiler by providing forward-edge control flow protection for
Rust-compiled code only by aggregating function pointers in groups
identified by their return and parameter types.
Forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled
code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code
share the same virtual address space) will be provided in later work as
part of this project by identifying C char and integer type uses at the
time types are encoded (see Type metadata in the design document in the
tracking issue #89653).
LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and requires LTO (i.e.,
-Clto).
This adds the typeid and `vcall_visibility` metadata to vtables when the
-Cvirtual-function-elimination flag is set.
The typeid is generated in the same way as for the
`llvm.type.checked.load` intrinsic from the trait_ref.
The offset that is added to the typeid is always 0. This is because LLVM
assumes that vtables are constructed according to the definition in the
Itanium ABI. This includes an "address point" of the vtable. In C++ this
is the offset in the vtable where information for RTTI is placed. Since
there is no RTTI information in Rust's vtables, this "address point" is
always 0. This "address point" in combination with the offset passed to
the `llvm.type.checked.load` intrinsic determines the final function
that should be loaded from the vtable in the
`WholeProgramDevirtualization` pass in LLVM. That's why the
`llvm.type.checked.load` intrinsics are generated with the typeid of the
trait, rather than with that of the function that is called. This
matches what `clang` does for C++.
The vcall_visibility metadata depends on three factors:
1. LTO level: Currently this is always fat LTO, because LLVM only
supports this optimization with fat LTO.
2. Visibility of the trait: If the trait is publicly visible, VFE
can only act on its vtables after linking.
3. Number of CGUs: if there is more than one CGU, also vtables with
restricted visibility could be seen outside of the CGU, so VFE can
only act on them after linking.
To reflect this, there are three visibility levels: Public, LinkageUnit,
and TranslationUnit.
The previous implementation was written before types were properly
normalized for code generation and had to assume a more complicated
relationship between types and their debuginfo -- generating separate
identifiers for debuginfo nodes that were based on normalized types.
Since types are now already normalized, we can use them as identifiers
for debuginfo nodes.
replace dynamic library module with libloading
This PR deletes the `rustc_metadata::dynamic_lib` module in favor of the popular and better tested [`libloading` crate](https://github.com/nagisa/rust_libloading/).
We don't benefit from `libloading`'s symbol lifetimes since we end up leaking the loaded library in all cases, but the call-sites look much nicer by improving error handling and abstracting away some transmutes. We also can remove `rustc_metadata`'s direct dependencies on `libc` and `winapi`.
This PR also adds an exception for `libloading` (and its license) to tidy, so this will need sign-off from the compiler team.
We already use the object crate for generating uncompressed .rmeta
metadata object files. This switches the generation of compressed
.rustc object files to use the object crate as well. These have
slightly different requirements in that .rmeta should be completely
excluded from any final compilation artifacts, while .rustc should
be part of shared objects, but not loaded into memory.
The primary motivation for this change is #90326: In LLVM 14, the
current way of setting section flags (and in particular, preventing
the setting of SHF_ALLOC) will no longer work. There are other ways
we could work around this, but switching to the object crate seems
like the most elegant, as we already use it for .rmeta, and as it
makes this independent of the codegen backend. In particular, we
don't need separate handling in codegen_llvm and codegen_gcc.
codegen_cranelift should be able to reuse the implementation as
well, though I have omitted that here, as it is not based on
codegen_ssa.
This change mostly extracts the existing code for .rmeta handling
to allow using it for .rustc as well, and adjust the codegen
infrastructure to handle the metadata object file separately: We
no longer create a backend-specific module for it, and directly
produce the compiled module instead.
This does not fix#90326 by itself yet, as .llvmbc will need to be
handled separately.
Using symbol::Interner makes it very easy to mixup UniqueTypeId symbols
with the global interner. In fact the Debug implementation of
UniqueTypeId did exactly this.
Using a separate interner type also avoids prefilling the interner with
unused symbols and allow for optimizing the symbol interner for parallel
access without negatively affecting the single threaded module codegen.
Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field anyway, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information, we should remove it from
crates in this repo.
Update measureme dependency to the latest version
This version adds the ability to use `rdpmc` hardware-based performance
counters instead of wall-clock time for measuring duration. This also
introduces a dependency on the `perf-event-open-sys` crate on Linux
which is used when using hardware counters.

Replace const_cstr with cstr crate
This PR replaces the `const_cstr` macro inside `rustc_data_structures` with `cstr` macro from [cstr](https://crates.io/crates/cstr) crate.
The two macros basically serve the same purpose, which is to generate `&'static CStr` from a string literal. `cstr` is better because it validates the literal at compile time, while the existing `const_cstr` does it at runtime when `debug_assertions` is enabled. In addition, the value `cstr` generates can be used in constant context (which is seemingly not needed anywhere currently, though).
