Use the same DISubprogram for each instance of the same inlined function within a caller
# Issue Details:
The call to `panic` within a function like `Option::unwrap` is translated to LLVM as a `tail call` (as it will never return), when multiple calls to the same function like this is inlined LLVM will notice the common `tail call` block (i.e., loading the same panic string + location info and then calling `panic`) and merge them together.
When merging these instructions together, LLVM will also attempt to merge the debug locations as well, but this fails (i.e., debug info is dropped) as Rust emits a new `DISubprogram` at each inline site thus LLVM doesn't recognize that these are actually the same function and so thinks that there isn't a common debug location.
As an example of this when building for x86_64 Windows (note the lack of `.cv_loc` before the call to `panic`, thus it will be attributed to the same line at the `addq` instruction):
```
.cv_loc 0 1 23 0 # src\lib.rs:23:0
addq $40, %rsp
retq
leaq .Lalloc_f570dea0a53168780ce9a91e67646421(%rip), %rcx

movl $43, %edx
callq _ZN4core9panicking5panic17h12e60b9063f6dee8E
int3
```
# Fix Details:
Cache the `DISubprogram` emitted for each inlined function instance within a caller so that this can be reused if that instance is encountered again, this also requires caching the `DILexicalBlock` and `DIVariable` objects to avoid creating duplicates.
After this change the above assembly now looks like:
```
.cv_loc 0 1 23 0 # src\lib.rs:23:0
addq $40, %rsp
retq
.cv_inline_site_id 5 within 0 inlined_at 1 0 0
.cv_inline_site_id 6 within 5 inlined_at 1 12 0
.cv_loc 6 2 935 0 # library\core\src\option.rs:935:0

As of Xcode 15 Apple's linker has become a bit more strict about the
warnings it produces. One of those new warnings requires all valid
Mach-O object files in an archive to have a LC_BUILD_VERSION load
command:
```
ld: warning: no platform load command found in 'ARCHIVE[arm64][2106](lib.rmeta)', assuming: iOS-simulator
```
This was already being done for Mac Catalyst so this change expands this
logic to include it for all Apple platforms. I filed this behavior
change as FB12546320 and was told it was the new intentional behavior.
Infer `Lld::No` linker hint when the linker stem is a generic compiler driver

I believe that we should infer the `Lld::No` linker hint for any `-Clinker` override, and all the cases above:
- the linker drivers have their own defaults, so in my mind `-Clinker` is a signal to use its default linker / flavor, rather than ours or the target's. In the case of generic compilers, it's more likely than not going to be `Lld::No`. I would expect this to be the case in general, even when including platform-specific compilers.
- the guess will be wrong if the linker driver uses lld by default (and we also don't want to search for `-fuse-ld` link args), but will work in the more common cases. And the minority of other cases can fix the wrong guess by opting into the precise linker flavor.
- this also ensures backwards-compatibility: today, even on targets with an lld default and overriding the linker, rustc will not use lld. That includes `thumbv6m-none-eabi` where issue #113597 happened.
It looks like the simplest option, and the one with least churn: we maintain the current behavior in ambiguous cases.
I've tested that this works on #113597, as expected from the failure.
(I also have a no-std `run-make` test using a custom target json spec: basically simulating a future `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` using an lld flavor by default, to check that e.g. `-Clinker=clang` doesn't use lld. I could add that test to this PR, but IIUC such a custom target requires `cargo -Z build-std` and we have no tests depending on this cargo feature yet. Let me know if you want to add this test of the linker inference for such targets.)

Restrict linker version script of proc-macro crates to just its two symbols
Restrict linker version script of proc-macro crates to just the two symbols of each proc-macro crate.
The main known effect of doing this is to stop including `#[no_mangle]` symbols in the linker version script.
Background:
The combination of a proc-macro crate with an import of another crate that itself exports a no_mangle function was broken for a period of time, because:
* In PR #99944 we stopped exporting no_mangle symbols from proc-macro crates; proc-macro crates have a very limited interface and are meant to be treated as a blackbox to everything except rustc itself. However: he constructed linker version script still referred to them, but resolving that discrepancy was left as a FIXME in the code, tagged with issue #99978.
* In PR #108017 we started telling the linker to check (via the`--no-undefined-version` linker invocation flag) that every symbol referenced in the "linker version script" is provided as linker input. So the unresolved discrepancy from #99978 started surfacing as a compile-time error (e.g. #111888).
Fix#111888Fix#99978.
Remove arm crypto target feature
Follow-up to https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/pull/1407.
LLVM has moved away from a combined `crypto` feature on both aarch64 and arm, and we did the same on aarch64, but were deferred from doing the same on arm due to compatibility with older LLVM.
As the minimum LLVM version has increased, we can now remove this (unstable) target feature on arm.

Enable tests on rustc_codegen_ssa
This enables unittests in rustc_codegen_ssa. There are some tests, primarily in [`back/rpath/tests.rs`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/HEAD/compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/back/rpath/tests.rs) that haven't ever been running since the unittests are disabled. From what I can tell, this was just a consequence of how things evolved. When testing was initially added in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/33282, `librustc_trans` had test=false because it didn't have any tests. `rustc_codegen_ssa` eventually split off from that (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/55627), and the rpath module eventually got merged in too (from `librustc_back` where it used to live). That migration didn't enable the tests.
This also includes some fluent diagnostic tests, though I'm not sure what exactly they are testing.

cleanup: remove pointee types
This can't be merged until the oldest LLVM version we support uses opaque pointers, which will be the case after #114148. (Also note `-Cllvm-args="-opaque-pointers=0"` can technically be used in LLVM 15, though I don't think we should support that configuration.)
I initially hoped this would provide some minor perf win, but in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105412#issuecomment-1341224450 it had very little impact, so this is only valuable as a cleanup.

`@rustbot` label S-blocked
This function has some shared code for the thin LTO and fat LTO cases,
but those cases have so little in common that it's actually clearer to
treat them fully separately.
PR #112946 tweaked the naming of LLVM threads, but messed things up
slightly, resulting in threads on Windows having names like `optimize
module {} regex.f10ba03eb5ec7975-cgu.0`.
This commit removes the extraneous `{} `.
The main loop has a *very* complex condition, which includes two
mentions of `codegen_state`. The body of the loop then immediately
switches on the `codegen_state`.
I find it easier to understand if it's a `loop` and we check for exit
conditions after switching on `codegen_state`. We end up with a tiny bit
of code duplication, but it's clear that (a) we never exit in the
`Ongoing` case, (b) we exit in the `Completed` state only if several
things are true (and there's interaction with LTO there), and (c) we
exit in the `Aborted` state if a couple of things are true. Also, the
exit conditions are all simple conjunctions.
This loop condition involves `codegen_state`, `work_items`, and
`running_with_own_token`. But the body of the loop cannot modify
`codegen_state`, so repeatedly checking it is unnecessary.
`CodegenContext` is immutable except for the `worker` field - we clone
`CodegenContext` in multiple places, changing the `worker` field each
time. It's simpler to move the `worker` field out of `CodegenContext`.
It took me some time to understand how the main thread can lend a
jobserver token to an LLVM thread. This commit renames a couple of
things to make it clearer.
- Rename the `LLVMing` variant as `Lending`, because that is a clearer
description of what is happening.
- Rename `running` as `running_with_own_token`, which makes it clearer
that there might be one additional LLVM thread running (with a loaned
token). Also add a comment to its definition.
And rename the `Compiled` variant as `Finished`, because that name makes
it clearer there is nothing left to do, contrasting nicely with the
`Needs*` variants.
Tweak CGU sorting in a couple of places.
In `base.rs`, tweak how the CGU size interleaving works. Since #113777, it's much more common to have multiple CGUs with identical sizes. With the existing code these same-sized items ended up in the opposite-to-desired order due to the stable sorting. The code now starts with a reverse sort (like is done in `partitioning.rs`) which gives the behaviour we want. This doesn't matter much for perf, but makes profiles in `samply` look more like what we expect.
In `partitioning.rs`, we can use `sort_by_key` instead of `sort_by_cached_key` because `CGU::size_estimate()` is cheap. (There is an identical CGU sort earlier in that function that already uses `sort_by_key`.)

Fix #[inline(always)] on closures with target feature 1.1
Fixes#108655. I think this is the most obvious solution that isn't overly complicated. The comment includes more justification, but I think this is likely better than demoting the `#[inline(always)]` to `#[inline]`, since existing code is unaffected.
clarify MIR uninit vs LLVM undef/poison
In [this LLVM discussion](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-load-instruction-uninitialized-memory-semantics/67481) I learned that mapping our uninitialized memory in MIR to poison in LLVM would be quite problematic due to the lack of a byte type. I am not sure where to write down this insight but this seems like a reasonable start.
Support `--print KIND=PATH` command line syntax
As is already done for `--emit KIND=PATH` and `-L KIND=PATH`.
In the discussion of #110785, it was pointed out that `--print KIND=PATH` is nicer than trying to apply the single global `-o` path to `--print`'s output, because in general there can be multiple print requests within a single rustc invocation, and anyway `-o` would already be used for a different meaning in the case of `link-args` and `native-static-libs`.
I am interested in using `--print cfg=PATH` in Buck2. Currently Buck2 works around the lack of support for `--print KIND=PATH` by [indirecting through a Python wrapper script](d43cf3a51a/prelude/rust/tools/get_rustc_cfg.py) to redirect rustc's stdout into the location dictated by the build system.
From skimming Cargo's usages of `--print`, it definitely seems like it would benefit from `--print KIND=PATH` too. Currently it is working around the lack of this by inserting `--crate-name=___ --print=crate-name` so that it can look for a line containing `___` as a delimiter between the 2 other `--print` informations it actually cares about. This is commented as a "HACK" and "abuse". 31eda6f7c3/src/cargo/core/compiler/build_context/target_info.rs (L242) (FYI `@weihanglo` as you dealt with this recently in https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11633.)

Verify that all crate sources are in sync
This ensures that rustc will not attempt to link against a cdylib as if it is a rust dylib when an rlib for the same crate is available. Previously rustc didn't actually check if any further formats of a crate which has been loaded are of the same version and if they are actually valid. This caused a cdylib to be interpreted as rust dylib as soon as the corresponding rlib was loaded. As cdylibs don't export any rust symbols, linking would fail if rustc decides to link against the cdylib rather than the rlib.
Two crates depended on the previous behavior by separately compiling a test crate as both rlib and dylib. These have been changed to capture their original spirit to the best of my ability while still working when rustc verifies that all crates are in sync. It is unlikely that build systems depend on the current behavior and in any case we are taking a lot of measures to ensure that any change to either the source or the compilation options (including crate type) results in rustc rejecting it as incompatible. We merely didn't do this check here for now obsolete perf reasons.

On nightly, dump ICE backtraces to disk
Implement rust-lang/compiler-team#578.
When an ICE is encountered on nightly releases, the new rustc panic handler will also write the contents of the backtrace to disk. If any `delay_span_bug`s are encountered, their backtrace is also added to the file. The platform and rustc version will also be collected.

The current behavior will *always* write to disk on nightly builds, regardless of whether the backtrace is printed to the terminal, unless the environment variable `RUSTC_ICE_DISK_DUMP` is set to `0`. This is a compromise and can be changed.

Add the `no-builtins` attribute to functions when `no_builtins` is applied at the crate level.
**When `no_builtins` is applied at the crate level, we should add the `no-builtins` attribute to each function to ensure it takes effect in LTO.**
This is also the reason why no_builtins does not take effect in LTO as mentioned in #35540.
Now, `#![no_builtins]` should be similar to `-fno-builtin` in clang/gcc, see https://clang.godbolt.org/z/z4j6Wsod5.
Next, we should make `#![no_builtins]` participate in LTO again. That makes sense, as LTO also takes into consideration function-level instruction optimizations, such as the MachineOutliner. More importantly, when a user writes a large `#![no_builtins]` crate, they would like this crate to participate in LTO as well.
We should also add a function-level no_builtins attribute to allow users to have more control over it. This is similar to Clang's `__attribute__((no_builtin))` feature, see https://clang.godbolt.org/z/Wod6KK6eq. Before implementing this feature, maybe we should discuss whether to support more fine-grained control, such as `__attribute__((no_builtin("memcpy")))`.

`@pcwalton's` original PR description is reproduced below:
Commit 88e4d2c from five years ago removed
support for alignment on indirectly-passed arguments because of problems with
the `i686-pc-windows-msvc` target. Unfortunately, the `memcpy` optimizations I
recently added to LLVM 16 depend on this to forward `memcpy`s. This commit
attempts to fix the problems with `byval` parameters on that target and now
correctly adds the `align` attribute.
The problem is summarized in [this comment] by `@eddyb.` Briefly, 32-bit x86 has
special alignment rules for `byval` parameters: for the most part, their
alignment is forced to 4. This is not well-documented anywhere but in the Clang
source. I looked at the logic in Clang `TargetInfo.cpp` and tried to replicate
it here. The relevant methods in that file are
`X86_32ABIInfo::getIndirectResult()` and
`X86_32ABIInfo::getTypeStackAlignInBytes()`. The `align` parameter attribute
for `byval` parameters in LLVM must match the platform ABI, or miscompilations
will occur. Note that this doesn't use the approach suggested by eddyb, because
I felt it was overkill to store the alignment in `on_stack` when special
handling is really only needed for 32-bit x86.
As a side effect, this should fix#80127, because it will make the `align`
parameter attribute for `byval` parameters match the platform ABI on LLVM
x86-64.
[this comment]: #80822 (comment)
make MCP510 behavior opt-in to avoid conflicts between the CLI and target flavors
Fixes#113597, which contains more details on how this happens through the code, and showcases an unexpected `Gnu(Cc::Yes, Lld::Yes)` flavor.
#112910 added support to use `lld` when the flavor requests it, but didn't explicitly do so only when using `-Clink-self-contained=+linker` or one of the unstable `-Clinker-flavor`s.
The problem: some targets have a `lld` linker and flavor, e.g. `thumbv6m-none-eabi` from that issue. Users can override the linker but there are no linker flavors precise enough to describe the linker opting out of lld: when using `-Clinker=arm-none-eabi-gcc`, we infer this is a `Cc::Yes` linker flavor, but the `lld` component is unknown and therefore defaulted to the target's linker flavor, `Lld::Yes`.
<details>
<summary>Walkthrough of how this happens</summary>
The linker flavor used is a mix between what can be inferred from the CLI (`-C linker`) and the target's default linker flavor:
- there is no linker flavor on the CLI (and that also offers another workaround on nightly: `-C linker-flavor=gnu-cc -Zunstable-options`), so it will have to be inferred [from here](5dac6b320b/compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/back/link.rs (L1334-L1336)) to [here](5dac6b320b/compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/back/link.rs (L1321-L1327)).
- in [`infer_linker_hints`](5dac6b320b/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/mod.rs (L320-L352)) `-C linker=arm-none-eabi-gcc` infers a `Some(Cc::Yes)` cc hint, and no hint about lld.
- the target's `linker_flavor` is combined in `with_cli_hints` with these hints. We have our `Cc::Yes`, but there is no hint about lld, [so the target's flavor `lld` component is used](5dac6b320b/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/mod.rs (L356-L358)). It's [`Gnu(Cc::No, Lld::Yes)`](993deaa0bf/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/thumb_base.rs (L35)).
- so we now have our `Gnu(Cc::Yes, Lld::Yes)` flavor
</details>
This results in a `Gnu(Cc::Yes, Lld::Yes)` flavor on a non-lld linker, causing an additional unexpected `-fuse-ld=lld` argument to be passed.
I don't know if this target defaulting to `rust-lld` is expected, but until MCP510's new linker flavor are stable, when people will be able to describe their linker/flavor accurately, this PR keeps the stable behavior of not doing anything when the linker/flavor on the CLI unexpectedly conflict with the target's.
I've tested this on a `no_std` `-C linker=arm-none-eabi-gcc -C link-arg=-nostartfiles --target thumbv6m-none-eabi` example, trying to simulate one of `cortex-m`'s test mentioned in issue #113597 (I don't know how to build a local complete `thumbv6m-none-eabi` toolchain to run the exact test), and checked that `-fuse-lld` was indeed gone and the error disappeared.

Support explicit 32-bit MIPS ABI for the synthetic object
PR #95604 introduced a "synthetic object file to ensure all exported and used symbols participate in the linking". One constraint on this file is that for MIPS-based targets, its architecture-specific ELF flags must be the same as all other object files passed to the linker. That's enforced by LLD, here:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-16.0.6/lld/ELF/Arch/MipsArchTree.cpp#L77
The current approach to determining e_flags for 32-bit was implemented in PR #96930, which links to this issue that summarizes the problem well: https://github.com/ayrtonm/psx-sdk-rs/issues/9
> ... the temporary object file is created with an e_flags which is
> invalid for 32-bit MIPS targets. The main issue is that it omits the ABI

To enable the N32 MIPS ABI (which succeeded O32), this patch enables setting the synthetic object's ABI based on the target "llvm-abiname" field, if it's given; otherwise, the O32 ABI is assumed for 32-bit MIPS targets.
More information about the N32 ABI can be found here: https://web.archive.org/web/20160121005457/http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/manuals/2000/007-2816-005/pdf/007-2816-005.pdf
PR #95604 introduced a "synthetic object file to ensure all exported and
used symbols participate in the linking". One constraint on this file is
that for MIPS-based targets, its architecture-specific ELF flags must be
the same as all other object files passed to the linker. That's enforced
by LLD, here:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-16.0.6/lld/ELF/Arch/MipsArchTree.cpp#L77
The current approach to determining e_flags for 32-bit was implemented
in PR #96930, which links to this issue that summarizes the problem well:

Always name the return place.
MIR opts more and more consider `_0` as just another local, so there is no point in keeping the special case in debug-info logic.
