Avoid no-op unlink+link dances in incr comp
Incremental compilation scales quite poorly with the number of CGUs. This PR improves one reason for that.
The incr comp process hard-links all the files from an old session into a new one, then it runs the backend, which may just hard-link the new session files into the output directory. Then codegen hard-links all the output files back to the new session directory.
This PR (perhaps unimaginatively) fixes the silliness that ensues in the last step. The old `link_or_copy` implementation would be passed pairs of paths which are already the same inode, then it would blindly delete the destination and re-create the hard-link that it just deleted. This PR lets us skip both those operations. We don't skip the other two hard-links.

This reduces the number of hard-links that are causing perf troubles, noted in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/64291 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/137560
Revert <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/138084> to buy time to
consider options that avoids breaking downstream usages of cargo on
distributed `rustc-src` artifacts, where such cargo invocations fail due
to inability to inherit `lints` from workspace root manifest's
`workspace.lints` (this is only valid for the source rust-lang/rust
workspace, but not really the distributed `rustc-src` artifacts).
This breakage was reported in
<https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/138304>.
This reverts commit 48caf81484, reversing
changes made to c6662879b2.
Bitcode linkers like llvm-bitcode-linker or bpf linker hand over the target features to llvm during link stage. During link stage the `TyCtxt` is already gone so it is not possible to create a query for the global backend features any longer. The features preserved in `Session.target_features` only incorporate target features known to rustc. This would contradict with the behaviour during codegen stage which also passes target features to llvm which are unknown to rustc.
This commit adds target features as a field to the `CrateInfo` struct and queries the target features in its new function. This way the target features are preserved beyond tcx and available at link stage.
To make sure the `global_backend_features` query is always registered even if the CodegenBackend does not register it, this registration is added to the `provide`function of the `rustc_codegen_ssa` crate.
`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
We already do this for a number of crates, e.g. `rustc_middle`,
`rustc_span`, `rustc_metadata`, `rustc_span`, `rustc_errors`.
For the ones we don't, in many cases the attributes are a mess.
- There is no consistency about order of attribute kinds (e.g.
`allow`/`deny`/`feature`).
- Within attribute kind groups (e.g. the `feature` attributes),
sometimes the order is alphabetical, and sometimes there is no
particular order.
- Sometimes the attributes of a particular kind aren't even grouped
all together, e.g. there might be a `feature`, then an `allow`, then
another `feature`.
This commit extends the existing sorting to all compiler crates,
increasing consistency. If any new attribute line is added there is now
only one place it can go -- no need for arbitrary decisions.
Exceptions:
- `rustc_log`, `rustc_next_trait_solver` and `rustc_type_ir_macros`,
because they have no crate attributes.
- `rustc_codegen_gcc`, because it's quasi-external to rustc (e.g. it's
ignored in `rustfmt.toml`).
Show files produced by `--emit foo` in json artifact notifications
Right now it is possible to ask `rustc` to save some intermediate representation into one or more files with `--emit=foo`, but figuring out what exactly was produced is difficult. This pull request adds information about `llvm_ir` and `asm` intermediate files into notifications produced by `--json=artifacts`.
Related discussion: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/easier-access-to-files-generated-by-emit-foo/20477
Motivation - `cargo-show-asm` parses those intermediate files and presents them in a user friendly way, but right now I have to apply some dirty hacks. Hacks make behavior confusing: https://github.com/hintron/computer-enhance/issues/35
This pull request introduces a new behavior: now `rustc` will emit a new artifact notification for every artifact type user asked to `--emit`, for example for `--emit asm` those will include all the `.s` files.
Most users won't notice this behavior, to be affected by it all of the following must hold:
- user must use `rustc` binary directly (when `cargo` invokes `rustc` - it consumes artifact notifications and doesn't emit anything)
- user must specify both `--emit xxx` and `--json artifacts`
- user must refuse to handle unknown artifact types
- user must disable incremental compilation (or deal with it better than cargo does, or use a workaround like `save-temps`) in order not to hit #88829 / #89149
That is, change `diagnostic_outside_of_impl` and
`untranslatable_diagnostic` from `allow` to `deny`, because more than
half of the compiler has be converted to use translated diagnostics.
This commit removes more `deny` attributes than it adds `allow`
attributes, which proves that this change is warranted.
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.
Restore `#![no_builtins]` crates participation in LTO.
After #113716, we can make `#![no_builtins]` crates participate in LTO again.
`#![no_builtins]` with LTO does not result in undefined references to the error. I believe this type of issue won't happen again.
Fixes#72140. Fixes#112245. Fixes#110606. Fixes#105734. Fixes#96486. Fixes#108853. Fixes#108893. Fixes#78744. Fixes#91158. Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/10118. Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-builtins/issues/347.
The `nightly-2023-07-20` version does not always reproduce problems due to changes in compiler-builtins, core, and user code. That's why this issue recurs and disappears.
Some issues were not tested due to the difficulty of reproducing them.
