Split `pauth` target feature Per discussion on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/86941 we'd like to split `pauth` into `paca` and `pacg` in order to better support possible future environments that only have the keys available for address or generic authentication. At the moment LLVM has the one `pauth` target_feature while Linux presents separate `paca` and `pacg` flags for feature detection. Because the use of [target_feature](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2045-target-feature.html) will "allow the compiler to generate code under the assumption that this code will only be reached in hosts that support the feature", it does not make sense to simply translate `paca` into the LLVM feature `pauth`, as it will generate code as if `pacg` is available. To accommodate this we error if only one of the two features is present. If LLVM splits them in the future we can remove this restriction without making a breaking change. r? ```@Amanieu``` |
