tidy: replace `make check` with `./x.py test` in documentation
This PR includes a minor documentation update for tidy. It replaces the `make check` approach with `./x.py test` and describes how to execute the tidy checks (only) with ~~`./x.py test src/tools/tidy`~~ `./x.py test tidy`.
Clarify where the clippy used in `./x.py clippy` is coming from.
It uses whatever clippy binary was installed via rustup, cargo-install
or otherwise and does NOT use the binary generated by `./x.py build src/tools/clippy`.
This came out of the first Rustfix WG meeting.
One of the goals is to enable Rustfix tests for all UI tests that
trigger lints with `MachineApplicable` suggestions. In order to do that
we first want to create a tracking issue that lists all files with
missing `// run-rustfix` headers.
This PR adds a `--rustfix-coverage` flag to `./x.py` and compiletest to
list the files with the missing headers in `/tmp/rustfix_missing_coverage.txt`.
From that file we can create the tracking issue and at some point also
enforce the `// run-rustfix` flag on UI tests with `MachineApplicable`
lints.
remove useless format!()s
remove redundant field names in a few struct initializations
pass slice instead of a vector to a function
use is_empty() instead of comparisons to .len()
No functional change intended.
This ensures that each build will support the testing design of "dry
running" builds. It's also checked that a dry run build is equivalent
step-wise to a "wet" run build; the graphs we generate when running are
directly compared node/node and edge/edge, both for order and contents.
This ensures that the working directory of rustbuild has no effect on
it's run; since tests will run with a different cwd this is required for
consistent behavior.
- The bootstrap crate currently passes -v to Cargo if itself invoked
with -vv. But Cargo supports -vv (to show build script output), so make
bootstrap pass that if itself invoked with -vvv. (More specifically,
pass N '-v's to Cargo if invoked with N+1 of them.)
- bootstrap.py currently tries to pass on up to two '-v's to cargo when
building bootstrap, but incorrectly ('-v' is marked as 'store_true', so
argparse stores either False or True, ignoring multiple '-v's). Fix
this, allow passing any number of '-v's, and make it consistent with
bootstrap's invocation of Cargo (i.e. subtract one from the number of
'-v's).
- Also improve bootstrap.py's config.toml 'parsing' to support arbitrary
verbosity levels, + allow command line to override it.
We'd previously assumed that these paths would be relative to the src
dir, and that for example our various CI scripts would, when calling
x.py, use `../x.py build ../src/tools/...` but this isn't the case --
they use `../x.py` without using the relevant source-relative path.
We eventually may want to make this (actually somewhat logical) change,
but this is not that time.
This currently only supports a limited subset of the full compilation,
but is likely 90% of what people will want and is possible without
building a full compiler (i.e., running LLVM). In theory, this means
that contributors who don't want to build LLVM now have an easy way to
compile locally, though running tests won't work.
