don't see issue #0
The unstable-feature attribute requires an issue (neglecting it is
E0547), which gets used in the error messages. Unfortunately, there are
some cases where "0" is apparently used a placeholder where no issue
exists, directing the user to see the (nonexistent) issue #0. (It would
have been better to either let `issue` be optional—compare to how issue
is an `Option<u32>` in the feature-gate declarations in
libsyntax/feature-gate.rs—or actually require that an issue be created.)
Rather than endeavoring to change how `#[unstable]` works at this time
(given competing contributor and reviewer priorities), this simple patch
proposes the less-ambitious solution of just not adding the "(see
issue)" note when the number is zero.
Resolves#49983.
This computes the transitive closure of traits that appear in the
environment and then appends their clauses. It needs some work, but
it's in the right direction.
Replace {Alloc,GlobalAlloc}::oom with a lang item.
The decision of what to do after an allocation fails is orthogonal to the decision of how to allocate the memory, so this PR splits them apart. `Alloc::oom` and `GlobalAlloc::oom` have been removed, and a lang item has been added:
```rust
#[lang = "oom"]
fn oom() -> !;
```
It is specifically a weak lang item, like panic_fmt, except that it is required when you depend on liballoc rather than libcore. libstd provides an implementation that aborts with the message `fatal runtime error: memory allocation failed`, matching the current behavior.
The new implementation is also significantly simpler - it's "just another weak lang item". [RFC 2070](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2070-panic-implementation.md) specifies a path towards stabilizing panic_fmt, so any complexities around stable weak lang item definition are already being solved.
To bootstrap, oom silently aborts in stage0. alloc_system no longer has a bunch of code to print to stderr, and alloc_jemalloc no longer depends on alloc_system to pull in that code.
One fun note: System's GlobalAlloc implementation didn't override the default implementation of oom, so it currently aborts silently!

Add inherent methods in libcore for [T], [u8], str, f32, and f64
# Background
Primitive types are defined by the language, they don’t have a type definition like `pub struct Foo { … }` in any crate. So they don’t “belong” to any crate as far as `impl` coherence is concerned, and on principle no crate would be able to define inherent methods for them, without a trait. Since we want these types to have inherent methods anyway, the standard library (with cooperation from the compiler) bends this rule with code like [`#[lang = "u8"] impl u8 { /*…*/ }`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.25.0/src/libcore/num/mod.rs#L2244-L2245). The `#[lang]` attribute is permanently-unstable and never intended to be used outside of the standard library.
Each lang item can only be defined once. Before this PR there is one impl-coherence-rule-bending lang item per primitive type (plus one for `[u8]`, which overlaps with `[T]`). And so one `impl` block each. These blocks for `str`, `[T]` and `[u8]` are in liballoc rather than libcore because *some* of the methods (like `<[T]>::to_vec(&self) -> Vec<T> where T: Clone`) need a global memory allocator which we don’t want to make a requirement in libcore. Similarly, `impl f32` and `impl f64` are in libstd because some of the methods are based on FFI calls to C’s `libm` and we want, as much as possible, libcore not to require “runtime support”.
In libcore, the methods of `str` and `[T]` that don’t allocate are made available through two **unstable traits** `StrExt` and `SliceExt` (so the traits can’t be *named* by programs on the Stable release channel) that have **stable methods** and are re-exported in the libcore prelude (so that programs on Stable can *call* these methods anyway). Non-allocating `[u8]` methods are not available in libcore: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/45803. Some `f32` and `f64` methods are in an unstable `core::num::Float` trait with stable methods, but that one is **not in the libcore prelude**. (So as far as Stable programs are concerns it doesn’t exist, and I don’t know what the point was to mark these methods `#[stable]`.)
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32110 is the tracking issue for these unstable traits.
# High-level proposal
Since the standard library is already bending the rules, why not bend them *a little more*? By defining a few additional lang items, the compiler can allow the standard library to have *two* `impl` blocks (in different crates) for some primitive types.
The `StrExt` and `SliceExt` traits still exist for now so that we can bootstrap from a previous-version compiler that doesn’t have these lang items yet, but they can be removed in next release cycle. (`Float` is used internally and needs to be public for libcore unit tests, but was already `#[doc(hidden)]`.) I don’t know if https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32110 should be closed by this PR, or only when the traits are entirely removed after we make a new bootstrap compiler.
# Float methods
Among the methods of the `core::num::Float` trait, three are based on LLVM intrinsics: `abs`, `signum`, and `powi`. PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/27823 “Remove dependencies on libm functions from libcore” moved a bunch of `core::num::Float` methods back to libstd, but left these three behind. However they aren’t specifically discussed in the PR thread. The `compiler_builtins` crate defines `__powisf2` and `__powidf2` functions that look like implementations of `powi`, but I couldn’t find a connection with the `llvm.powi.f32` and `llvm.powi.f32` intrinsics by grepping through LLVM’s code.
In discussion starting at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32110#issuecomment-370647922 Alex says that we do not want methods in libcore that require “runtime support”, but it’s not clear whether that applies to these `abs`, `signum`, or `powi`. In doubt, I’ve **removed** them for the trait and moved them to inherent methods in libstd for now. We can move them back later (or in this PR) if we decide that’s appropriate.
# Change details
For users on the Stable release channel:
* I believe this PR does not make any breaking change
* Some methods for `[u8]`, `f32`, and `f64` are newly available to `#![no_std]` users (fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/45803)
* There should be no visible change for `std` users in terms of what programs compile or what their behavior is. (Only in compiler error messages, possibly.)
For Nightly users, additionally:
* The unstable `StrExt` and `SliceExt` traits are gone
* Their methods are now inherent methods of `str` and `[T]` (so only code that explicitly named the traits should be affected, not "normal" method calls)
* The `abs`, `signum` and `powi` methods of the `Float` trait are gone
* The `Float` trait’s unstable feature name changed to `float_internals` with no associated tracking issue, to reflect it being a permanently unstable implementation detail rather than a public API on a path to stabilization.
* Its remaining methods are now inherent methods of `f32` and `f64`.
-----
CC @rust-lang/libs for the API changes, @rust-lang/compiler for the new lang items
Revert stabilization of never_type (!) et al
Fix#49691
I *think* this correctly adopts @nikomatsakis 's desired fix of:
* reverting stabilization of `!` and `TryFrom`, and
* returning to the previous fallback semantics (i.e. it is once again dependent on whether the crate has opted into `#[feature(never_type)]`,
* **without** attempting to put back in the previous future-proofing warnings regarding the change in fallback semantics.
(I'll be away from computers for a week starting now, so any updates to this PR should be either pushed into it, or someone else should adopt the task of polishing this fix and put up their own PR.)
rustc: Always emit `uwtable` on Android
Long ago (#40549) we enabled the `uwtable` attribute on Windows by default
(even with `-C panic=abort`) to allow unwinding binaries for [stack unwinding
information][winstack]. It looks like this same issue is [plaguing][arm1]
Gecko's Android platforms [as well][arm2]. This commit applies the same fix
as #40549 except that this time it's applied for all Android targets.
Generating a `-C panic=abort` binary for `armv7-linux-androideabi` before this
commit generated a number of `cantunwind` functions (detected with `readelf -u`)
but after this commit they all list appropriate unwind information.

rustc: Tweak custom attribute capabilities
This commit starts to lay some groundwork for the stabilization of custom
attribute invocations and general procedural macros. It applies a number of
changes discussed on [internals] as well as a [recent issue][issue], namely:
* The path used to specify a custom attribute must be of length one and cannot
be a global path. This'll help future-proof us against any ambiguities and
give us more time to settle the precise syntax. In the meantime though a bare
identifier can be used and imported to invoke a custom attribute macro. A new
feature gate, `proc_macro_path_invoc`, was added to gate multi-segment paths
and absolute paths.
* The set of items which can be annotated by a custom procedural attribute has
been restricted. Statements, expressions, and modules are disallowed behind
two new feature gates: `proc_macro_expr` and `proc_macro_mod`.
* The input to procedural macro attributes has been restricted and adjusted.
Today an invocation like `#[foo(bar)]` will receive `(bar)` as the input token
stream, but after this PR it will only receive `bar` (the delimiters were
removed). Invocations like `#[foo]` are still allowed and will be invoked in
the same way as `#[foo()]`. This is a **breaking change** for all nightly
users as the syntax coming in to procedural macros will be tweaked slightly.
* Procedural macros (`foo!()` style) can only be expanded to item-like items by
default. A separate feature gate, `proc_macro_non_items`, is required to
expand to items like expressions, statements, etc.

Note that this commit, since it is trying to be minimal in order to
ease backporting to the beta and release channels, does *not* include
the old future-proofing warnings that we used to have associated with
such fallback to `()`; see discussion at this comment:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/49691#issuecomment-381266730
This commit is just covering the feature gate itself and the tests
that made direct use of `!` and thus need to opt back into the
feature.
A follow on commit brings back the other change that motivates the
revert: Namely, going back to the old rules for falling back to `()`.
proc_macro: Stay on the "use the cache" path more
Discovered in #50061 we're falling off the "happy path" of using a stringified
token stream more often than we should. This was due to the fact that a
user-written token like `0xf` is equality-different from the stringified token
of `15` (despite being semantically equivalent).
This patch updates the call to `eq_unspanned` with an even more awful solution,
`probably_equal_for_proc_macro`, which ignores the value of each token and
basically only compares the structure of the token stream, assuming that the AST
doesn't change just one token at a time.
While this is a step towards fixing #50061 there is still one regression
from #49154 which needs to be fixed.
When compiling crates we'll be calculating and parsing `#[target_feature]` for
upstream crates. We'll also be checking the stability of listed features, but we
only want to check the listed stability during the actual crate that wrote the
relevant code. This commit updates the `target_feature` process to ignore
foreign `DefId` instances and only check the feature whitelist for local
functions.
Closes#50094
Add src/test/ui regression testing for NLL
This PR changes `x.py test` so that when you are running the `ui` test suite, it will also always run `compiletest` in the new `--compare-mode=nll`, which just double-checks that when running under the experimental NLL mode, the output matches the `<source-name>.nll.stderr` file, if present.
In order to reduce the chance of a developer revolt in response to this change, this PR also includes some changes to make the `--compare-mode=nll` more user-friendly:
1. It now generates nll-specific .stamp files, and uses them (so that repeated runs can reuse previously cached results).
2. Each line of terminal output distinguishes whether we are running under `--compare-mode=nll` by printing with the prefix `[ui (nll)]` instead of just the prefix `[ui]`.

stabilize a bunch of minor api additions
besides `ptr::NonNull::cast` (which is 4 days away from end of FCP) all of these have been finished with FCP for a few weeks now with minimal issues raised
* Closes#41020
* Closes#42818
* Closes#44030
* Closes#44400
* Closes#46507
* Closes#47653
* Closes#46344
the following functions will be stabilized in 1.27:
* `[T]::rsplit`
* `[T]::rsplit_mut`
* `[T]::swap_with_slice`
* `ptr::swap_nonoverlapping`
* `NonNull::cast`
* `Duration::from_micros`
* `Duration::from_nanos`
* `Duration::subsec_millis`
* `Duration::subsec_micros`
* `HashMap::remove_entry`
This allows easy revision of the update-references.sh script (included
here) so that it can update the expected output for nll rather than
stderr. It also reminds the rustc developer via the filename that they
are looking at output generated under comapre-mode=nll.
One could argue that there is still a problem with the strategy encoded here:
if we reach a scenario where a change to the compiler brings the output
under AST and NLL modes back into sync, this code will continue to still
generate output to distinct `foo.stderr` and `foo.nll.stderr` files, and
will continue to copy those two files back to corresponding distinct
files in the source tree, even if the *content* of the two files is now the
same.
* Arguably the "right thing" to do in that case is to remove the
`foo.nll.stderr` file entirely.
* However, I think the real answer is that we will probably want to
double-check such cases by hand anyway. We should be regularly
double-checking the diffs between `foo.stderr` and
`foo.nll.stderr`, and if we see a zero-diff case, then we should
evaluate whether that is correct, and if so, remove the file by
hand.)
* In any case, I think the default behavior encoded here (or at
least *intended* to be encoded here) is superior to the
alternative of *only* generating a `foo.nll.stderr` file if one
already existed in the source tree at the time that `compiletest`
was invoked (and otherwise unconditionally generating a
`foo.stderr` file, as was the behavior prior to this commit),
because that alternative is more likely to cause rustc developers
to overwrite a `foo.stderr` file with the stderr output from a
compare-mode=nll run, which will then break the *normal*
`compiletest` run and probably be much more confusing for the
average rustc developer.
This commit only applies the flag to the one test case,
ui/span/dropck_vec_cycle_checked.rs, that absolutely needs it. Without
the flag, that test takes an unknown amount of time (greater than 1
minute) to compile. But its possible that other tests would also
benefit from the flag, and we may want to make it the default (after
evaluating its impact on other tests).
In terms of its known impact on other tests, I have only evaluated the
ui tests, and the *only* ui test I have found that the flag impacts
(running under NLL mode, of course), is src/test/ui/nll/issue-31567.rs
