Macro expansions produce code tagged with debug locations that are completely different from the surrounding expressions. This wrecks havoc on debugger's ability the step over source lines.
In order to have a good line stepping behavior in debugger, we overwrite debug locations of macro expansions with that of the outermost expansion site.
This primarily removes a lot of `sync::Static*` APIs and rejiggers the
associated implementations. While doing this it was discovered that the
`is_poisoned` method can actually result in a data race for the Mutex/RwLock
primitives, so the inner `Cell<bool>` was changed to an `AtomicBool` to prevent
the associated data race. Otherwise the usage/gurantees should be the same
they were before.
Instead of finding aux-build files in `auxiliary`, we now search for an
`aux` directory relative to the test. So if your test is
`compile-fail/foo.rs`, we would look in `compile-fail/aux`. Similarly,
we ignore the `aux` directory when searching for tets.
This is a standard "clean out libstd" commit which removes all 1.5-and-before
deprecated functionality as it's now all been deprecated for at least one entire
cycle.
Closure variables represent the closure environment, not the closure
function, so the identifier used to ensure that the debuginfo is unique
for each kind of closure needs to be based on the closure upvars and not
the function signature.
We're currently using the actual function type as the return type when
creating the debug info for a function, so we're actually creating
debug info for a function that takes the same parameters, and returns
the actual function type, which is completely wrong.
LLVM has recently created their 3.7 release branch, and this PR updates us to that point. This should hopefully mean that we're basically compatible with the upcoming 3.7 release. Additionally, there are a number of goodies on this branch.
* This contains a fix for https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=23957
which should help us bootstrap farther on 32-bit MSVC targets.
* There is better support for writing multiple flavors of archives, allowing us
to use the built-in LLVM support instead of the system `ar` on all current
platforms of the compiler.
* This LLVM has SafeStack support
* An [optimization patch](7cf5e26e18) by @pcwalton is included.
* A number of other minor test fixes here and there.
Due to problems dealing with the data layout we pass to LLVM, this PR also takes the time to clean up how we specific this. We no longer specify a data layout to LLVM by default and instead take the default for the target from LLVM to pass to the module that we're building. This should be more robust going into the future, and I'm also not sure we know what any of these arcane strings are any more...
Most of these are old, but some specific messages for specific tests:
* trait-contravariant-self.rs: failed due to a soundess hole:
05e3248a79
* process-detatch: 15966c3c1f
says "this test is being ignored until signals are implemented" That's
not happening for a long time, and when it is, we'll write tests for
it.
* deep-vector{,2}.rs: "too big for our poor macro infrastructure", and has
been ignored over a year.
* borrowck-nested-calls.rs's FIXME #6268 was closed in favor of
rust-lang/rfcs#811
* issue-15167.rs works properly now
* issue-9737.rs works properly now
* match-var-hygiene.rs works properly now
Addresses a chunk of #3965
GDB and LLDB pretty printers have some common functionality
and also access some common information, such as the layout of
standard library types. So far, this information has been
duplicated in the two pretty printing python modules. This
commit introduces a common module used by both debuggers.
