![]() self-contained linker: conservatively default to `-znostart-stop-gc` on x64 linux To help stabilization, this PR disables an LLD optimization on x64 linux with respect to `--gc-sections` and encapsulation symbols: it will reduce the number of crates needing to opt-out of lld due to this bfd / lld difference. For example, all the people using [linkme](https://github.com/dtolnay/linkme), which [doesn't work with lld](https://github.com/dtolnay/linkme/issues/63) or on nightly, need to disable lld. More information about all this, and the historical differences, can be found in: - https://maskray.me/blog/2021-01-31-metadata-sections-comdat-and-shf-link-order - https://lld.llvm.org/ELF/start-stop-gc This optimization has [no visible impact](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/137685#issuecomment-2686116312) on our benchmarks, so we can use it by default and have a safer/more conservative starting point to remove friction during migration. We can them emit an FCW for the cases where lld detects reliance on encapsulation symbols without `-znostart-stop-gc`, and then revert back to lld's default after a while. No one compiling on nightly relies on this difference, obviously, so doing an FCW is not necessary until after lld is used on stable. I've tested that this correctly links on `linkme` examples. I've also quickly tried to crate an rmake test but the setup with encapsulation symbols is annoying to reproduce: a few link section/name attributes is not enough, we also need to collect symbols between the encapsulation symbols, without referencing them in code, for `-znostart-stop-gc` to only impact this... It should of course be doable though, maybe ````@Kobzol```` will look into it if they have time. r? ````@petrochenkov```` |

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
