Previously, the cfg attribute `cfg(not(a, b))` was translated to `(!a && !b)`,
but this isn't very useful because that can already be expressed as
`cfg(not(a), not(b))`. This commit changes the translation to `!(a && b)` which
is more symmetrical of the rest of the `cfg` attribute.
Put another way, I would expect `cfg(clause)` to be the opposite of
`cfg(not(clause))`, but this is not currently the case with multiple element
clauses.
Fix a test that was missed in the chan/port renaming (PR #12815). This was missed because it is skipped on linux and windows, and the mac bots were moving at the time the PR landed.
# Summary
This patch introduces the `_` token into the type grammar, with the meaning "infer this type".
With this change, the following two lines become equivalent:
```
let x = foo();
let x: _ = foo();
```
But due to its composability, it enables partial type hints like this:
```
let x: Bar<_> = baz();
```
Using it on the item level is explicitly forbidden, as the Rust language does not enable global type inference by design.
This implements the feature requested in https://github.com/mozilla/rust/issues/9508.
# Things requiring clarification
- The change to enable it is very small, but I have only limited understanding of the related code, so the approach here might be wrong.
- In particular, while this patch works, it does so in a way not originally intended according to the code comments.
- This probably needs more tests, or rather feedback for which tests are still missing.
- I'm unsure how this interacts with lifetime parameters, and whether it is correct in regard to them.
- Partial type hints on the right side of `as` like `&foo as *_` work in both a normal function contexts and in constexprs like `static foo: *int = &'static 123 as *_`. The question is whether this should be allowed in general.
# Todo for this PR
- The manual and tutorial still needs updating.
# Bugs I'm unsure how to fix
- Requesting inference for the top level of the right hand side of a `as` fails to infer correctly, even if all possible hints are given:
```
.../type_hole_1.rs:35:18: 35:22 error: the type of this value must be known in this context
.../type_hole_1.rs:35 let a: int = 1u32 as _;
^~~~
```
lint: add lint for use of a `~[T]`.
This is useless at the moment (since pretty much every crate uses
`~[]`), but should help avoid regressions once completely removed from a
crate.
## read+write modifier '+'
This small sugar was left out in the original implementation (#5359).
When an output operand with the '+' modifier is encountered, we store the index of that operand alongside the expression to create and append an input operand later. The following lines are equivalent:
```
asm!("" : "+m"(expr));
asm!("" : "=m"(expr) : "0"(expr));
```
## misplaced options and clobbers give a warning
It's really annoying when a small typo might change behavior without any warning.
```
asm!("mov $1, $0" : "=r"(x) : "r"(8u) : "cc" , "volatile");
//~^ WARNING expected a clobber, but found an option
```
## liveness
Fixed incorrect order of propagation.
Sometimes it caused spurious warnings in code: `warning: value assigned to `i` is never read, #[warn(dead_assignment)] on by default`
~~Note: Rebased on top of another PR. (uses other changes)~~
* [x] Implement read+write
* [x] Warn about misplaced options
* [x] Fix liveness (`dead_assignment` lint)
* [x] Add all tests
For the following code snippet:
```rust
struct Foo { bar: int }
fn foo1(x: &Foo) -> &int {
&x.bar
}
```
This PR generates the following error message:
```rust
test.rs:2:1: 4:2 note: consider using an explicit lifetime parameter as shown: fn foo1<'a>(x: &'a Foo) -> &'a int
test.rs:2 fn foo1(x: &Foo) -> &int {
test.rs:3 &x.bar
test.rs:4 }
test.rs:3:5: 3:11 error: cannot infer an appropriate lifetime for borrow expression due to conflicting requirements
test.rs:3 &x.bar
^~~~~~
```
Currently it does not support methods.
Whenever a failure happens, if a program is run with
`RUST_LOG=std::rt::backtrace` a backtrace will be printed to the task's stderr
handle. Stack traces are uncondtionally printed on double-failure and
rtabort!().
This ended up having a nontrivial implementation, and here's some highlights of
it:
* We're bundling libbacktrace for everything but OSX and Windows
* We use libgcc_s and its libunwind apis to get a backtrace of instruction
pointers
* On OSX we use dladdr() to go from an instruction pointer to a symbol
* On unix that isn't OSX, we use libbacktrace to get symbols
* Windows, as usual, has an entirely separate implementation
Lots more fun details and comments can be found in the source itself.
Closes#10128

Most IO related functions return an IoResult so that the caller can handle failure in whatever way is appropriate. However, the `lines`, `bytes`, and `chars` iterators all supress errors. This means that code that needs to handle errors can't use any of these iterators. All three of these iterators were updated to produce IoResults.
Fixes#12368
If a TTY fails to get initialized, it still needs to have uv_close invoked on
it. This fixes the problem by constructing the TtyWatcher struct before the call
to uv_tty_init. The struct has a destructor on it which will close the handle
properly.

The `~str` type is not long for this world as it will be superseded by the
soon-to-come DST changes for the language. The new type will be
`~Str`, and matching over the allocation will no longer be supported.
Matching on `&str` will continue to work, in both a pre and post DST world.

Some types of error are caused by missing lifetime parameter on function
or method declaration. In such cases, this commit generates some
suggestion about what the function declaration could be. This does not
support method declaration yet.
Fix issue #5121: Add proper support for early/late distinction for lifetime bindings.
There are some little refactoring cleanups as separate commits; the real meat that has the actual fix is in the final commit.
The original author of the work was @nikomatsakis; I have reviewed it, revised it slightly, refactored it into these separate commits, and done some rebasing work.
This is needed to make progress on #10296 as the default bounds will no longer
include Send. I believe that this was the originally intended syntax for procs,
and it just hasn't been necessary up until now.

This should be called far less than it is because it does expensive OS
interactions and seeding of the internal RNG, `task_rng` amortises this
cost. The main problem is the name is so short and suggestive.
The direct equivalent is `StdRng::new`, which does precisely the same
thing.
The deprecation will make migrating away from the function easier.
This functionality is not super-core and so doesn't need to be included
in std. It's possible that std may need rand (it does a little bit now,
for io::test) in which case the functionality required could be moved to
a secret hidden module and reexposed by librand.
Unfortunately, using #[deprecated] here is hard: there's too much to
mock to make it feasible, since we have to ensure that programs still
typecheck to reach the linting phase.
The `-g` flag does not take an argument anymore while the argument to `--debuginfo` becomes mandatory. This change makes it possible again to run the compiler like this:
`rustc -g ./file.rs`
This did not work before because `./file.rs` was misinterpreted as the argument to `-g`. In order to get limited debuginfo, one now has to use `--debuginfo=1`.
It is often convenient to have forms of weak linkage or other various types of
linkage. Sadly, just using these flavors of linkage are not compatible with
Rust's typesystem and how it considers some pointers to be non-null.
As a compromise, this commit adds support for weak linkage to external symbols,
but it requires that this is only placed on extern statics of type `*T`.
Codegen-wise, we get translations like:
```rust
// rust code
extern {
#[linkage = "extern_weak"]
static foo: *i32;
}
// generated IR
@foo = extern_weak global i32
@_some_internal_symbol = internal global *i32 @foo
```
All references to the rust value of `foo` then reference `_some_internal_symbol`
instead of the symbol `_foo` itself. This allows us to guarantee that the
address of `foo` will never be null while the value may sometimes be null.
An example was implemented in `std::rt::thread` to determine if
`__pthread_get_minstack()` is available at runtime, and a test is checked in to
use it for a static value as well. Function pointers a little odd because you
still need to transmute the pointer value to a function pointer, but it's
thankfully better than not having this capability at all.
Thanks to @bnoordhuis for the original patch, most of this work is still his!

In the "reverse-complement" loop, if there is an odd number of element,
we forget to complement the element in the middle. For example, if the
input is "ggg", the result before the fix is "CgC" instead of "CCC".
This is because of this bug that the official shootout says that the rust
version is in "Bad Output". This commit should fix this error.
Where ItemDecorator creates new items given a single item, ItemModifier
alters the tagged item in place. The expansion rules for this are a bit
weird, but I think are the most reasonable option available.
When an item is expanded, all ItemModifier attributes are stripped from
it and the item is folded through all ItemModifiers. At that point, the
process repeats until there are no ItemModifiers in the new item.
