This is intended to maintain existing standards of code organization
in hopes that the standard library will continue to be refactored to
isolate platform-specific bits, making porting easier; where "standard
library" roughly means "all the dependencies of the std and test
crates".
This generally means placing restrictions on where `cfg(unix)`,
`cfg(windows)`, `cfg(target_os)` and `cfg(target_env)` may appear,
the basic objective being to isolate platform-specific code to the
platform-specific `std::sys` modules, and to the allocation,
unwinding, and libc crates.
Following are the basic rules, though there are currently
exceptions:
- core may not have platform-specific code
- liballoc_system may have platform-specific code
- liballoc_jemalloc may have platform-specific code
- libpanic_abort may have platform-specific code
- libpanic_unwind may have platform-specific code
- other crates in the std facade may not
- std may have platform-specific code in the following places
- sys/unix/
- sys/windows/
- os/
There are plenty of exceptions today though, noted in the whitelist.
Minimal fix for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/30563
This covers all the public structs I think; except for Iter and
IntoIter, which I don't know if or how they should be handled.
The replacements are functions that usually use a single `mem::transmute` in
their body and restrict input and output via more concrete types than `T` and
`U`. Worth noting are the `transmute` functions for slices and the `from_utf8*`
family for mutable slices. Additionally, `mem::transmute` was often used for
casting raw pointers, when you can already cast raw pointers just fine with
`as`.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1184][rfc] which tweaks the behavior of
the `#![no_std]` attribute and adds a new `#![no_core]` attribute. The
`#![no_std]` attribute now injects `extern crate core` at the top of the crate
as well as the libcore prelude into all modules (in the same manner as the
standard library's prelude). The `#![no_core]` attribute disables both std and
core injection.

An automated script was run against the `.rs` and `.md` files,
subsituting every occurrence of `task` with `thread`. In the `.rs`
files, only the texts in the comment blocks were affected.
Changes the style guidelines regarding unit tests to recommend using a
sub-module named "tests" instead of "test" for unit tests as "test"
might clash with imports of libtest.
This changes the type of some public constants/statics in libunicode.
Notably some `&'static &'static [(char, char)]` have changed
to `&'static [(char, char)]`. The regexp crate seems to be the
sole user of these, yet this is technically a [breaking-change]
In most places this preserves the current API by adding an explicit
`'static` bound.
Notably absent are some impls like `unsafe impl<T: Send> Send for
Foo<T>` and the `std::thread` module. It is likely that it will be
possible to remove these after auditing the code to ensure restricted
lifetimes are safe.
More progress on #22251.
There are a number of holes that the stability lint did not previously cover,
including:
* Types
* Bounds on type parameters on functions and impls
* Where clauses
* Imports
* Patterns (structs and enums)
These holes have all been fixed by overriding the `visit_path` function on the
AST visitor instead of a few specialized cases. This change also necessitated a
few stability changes:
* The `collections::fmt` module is now stable (it was already supposed to be).
* The `thread_local:👿:Key` type is now stable (it was already supposed to
be).
* The `std::rt::{begin_unwind, begin_unwind_fmt}` functions are now stable.
These are required via the `panic!` macro.
* The `std::old_io::stdio::{println, println_args}` functions are now stable.
These are required by the `print!` and `println!` macros.
* The `ops::{FnOnce, FnMut, Fn}` traits are now `#[stable]`. This is required to
make bounds with these traits stable. Note that manual implementations of
these traits are still gated by default, this stability only allows bounds
such as `F: FnOnce()`.
Additionally, the compiler now has special logic to ignore its own generated
`__test` module for the `--test` harness in terms of stability.

[breaking-change]
This gets rid of the 'experimental' level, removes the non-staged_api
case (i.e. stability levels for out-of-tree crates), and lets the
staged_api attributes use 'unstable' and 'deprecated' lints.
This makes the transition period to the full feature staging design
a bit nicer.
