This allows us to remove `static_panic_msg` from the SSA<->LLVM
boundary, along with its fat pointer representation for &str.
Also changes the signature of PanicInfo::internal_contructor to
avoid copying.
Closes#65856.
This is a stylistic change to libstd to reduce the number of checks of
`feature = "backtrace"` now that we unconditionally depend on the
`backtrace` crate and rely on it having an empty implementation.
otherwise.
Esteban Kuber requested that the panic message make it clear
that `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` is an environment variable. This change
makes that clear. Wording provided in part by David Tolnay.
It stop asserts and panics from libstd to automatically
include string output and formatting code.
Use case: developing static executables smaller than 50 kilobytes,
where usual formatting code is excessive while keeping debuggability
in debug mode.
May resolve#54981.
This commit updates the compiler to allow the `#[no_mangle]` (and
`#[export_name]` attributes) to be located anywhere within a crate.
These attributes are unconditionally processed, causing the compiler to
always generate an exported symbol with the appropriate name.
After some discussion on #54135 it was found that not a great reason
this hasn't been allowed already, and it seems to match the behavior
that many expect! Previously the compiler would only export a
`#[no_mangle]` symbol if it were *publicly reachable*, meaning that it
itself is `pub` and it's otherwise publicly reachable from the root of
the crate. This new definition is that `#[no_mangle]` *is always
reachable*, no matter where it is in a crate or whether it has `pub` or
not.
This should make it much easier to declare an exported symbol with a
known and unique name, even when it's an internal implementation detail
of the crate itself. Note that these symbols will persist beyond LTO as
well, always making their way to the linker.
Along the way this commit removes the `private_no_mangle_functions` lint
(also for statics) as there's no longer any need to lint these
situations. Furthermore a good number of tests were updated now that
symbol visibility has been changed.
Closes#54135
This commit removes allocation of the panic message in instances like
`panic!("foo: {}", "bar")` if we don't actually end up needing the message. We
don't need it in the case of wasm32 right now, and in general it's not needed
for panic=abort instances that use the default panic hook.
For now this commit only solves the wasm use case where with LTO the allocation
is entirely removed, but the panic=abort use case can be implemented at a later
date if needed.
