Move private bignum module to core::num, because it is not only used in flt2dec.
Extract private 80-bit soft-float into new core::num module for the same reason.
Overflows in integer pow() computations would be missed if they
preceded a 0 bit of the exponent being processed. This made
calls such as 2i32.pow(1024) not trigger an overflow.
These commits move libcore into a state so that it's ready for stabilization, performing some minor cleanup:
* The primitive modules for integers in the standard library were all removed from the source tree as they were just straight reexports of the libcore variants.
* The `core::atomic` module now lives in `core::sync::atomic`. The `core::sync` module is otherwise empty, but ripe for expansion!
* The `core::prelude::v1` module was stabilized after auditing that it is a subset of the standard library's prelude plus some primitive extension traits (char, str, and slice)
* Some unstable-hacks for float parsing errors were shifted around to not use the same unstable hacks (e.g. the `flt2dec` module is now used for "privacy").
After this commit, the remaining large unstable functionality specific to libcore is:
* `raw`, `intrinsics`, `nonzero`, `array`, `panicking`, `simd` -- these modules are all unstable or not reexported in the standard library, so they're just remaining in the same status quo as before
* `num::Float` - this extension trait for floats needs to be audited for functionality (much of that is happening in #27823) and may also want to be renamed to `FloatExt` or `F32Ext`/`F64Ext`.
* Should the extension traits for primitives be stabilized in libcore?
I believe other unstable pieces are not isolated to just libcore but also affect the standard library.
cc #27701
There wasn't any particular reason the functions needed to be there
anyway, so just get rid of them, and adjust libstd to compensate.
With this change, libcore depends on exactly two floating-point functions:
fmod and fmodf. They are implicitly referenced because they are used to
implement "%".

Stop using stability to hide the implementation details of ParseFloatError and
instead move the error type into the `dec2flt` module. Also move the
implementation blocks of `FromStr for f{32,64}` into `dec2flt` directly.

This PR implements the majority of RFC 1214. In particular, it implements:
- the new outlives relation
- comprehensive WF checking
For the most part, new code receives warnings, not errors, though 3 regressions were found via a crater run.
There are some deviations from RFC 1214. Most notably:
- we still consider implied bounds from fn ret; this intersects other soundness issues that I intend to address in detail in a follow-up RFC. Fixing this without breaking a lot of code probably requires rewriting compare-method somewhat (which is probably a good thing).
- object types do not check trait bounds for fear of encountering `Self`; this was left as an unresolved question in RFC 1214, but ultimately feels inconsistent.
Both of those two issues are highlighted in the tracking issue, https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/27579. #27579 also includes a testing matrix with new tests that I wrote -- these probably duplicate some existing tests, I tried to check but wasn't quite sure what to look for. I tried to be thorough in testing the WF relation, at least, but would welcome suggestions for missing tests.

This commit removes all unstable and deprecated functions in the standard
library. A release was recently cut (1.3) which makes this a good time for some
spring cleaning of the deprecated functions.
This commit removes all unstable and deprecated functions in the standard
library. A release was recently cut (1.3) which makes this a good time for some
spring cleaning of the deprecated functions.
This commit primarily adds implementations of the algorithms from William
Clinger's paper "How to Read Floating Point Numbers Accurately". It also
includes a lot of infrastructure necessary for those algorithms, and some
unit tests.
Since these algorithms reject a few (extreme) inputs that were previously
accepted, this could be seen as a [breaking-change]
This resolves#26845.
I'm not entirely satisfied with the placement of the rounding discussion in the docs for the `Div` and `Rem` traits, but I couldn't come up with anywhere better to put it. Suggestions are welcome.
I didn't add any discussion of rounding to the `checked_div` (or rem) or `wrapping_div` documentation because those seem to make it pretty clear that they do the same thing as `Div`.
This commit stabilizes the remaining `wrapping_*` functions on the primitive
integer types as they follow the same conventions as other wrapping methods are
were likely just initially unstable to be conservative.
This commit shards the broad `core` feature of the libcore library into finer
grained features. This split groups together similar APIs and enables tracking
each API separately, giving a better sense of where each feature is within the
stabilization process.
A few minor APIs were deprecated along the way:
* Iterator::reverse_in_place
* marker::NoCopy
Debug overflow checks for arithmetic negation landed in #24500, at which time
the `abs` method on signed integers was changed to using `wrapping_neg` to
ensure that the function never panicked. This implied that `abs` of `INT_MIN`
would return `INT_MIN`, another negative value. When this change was back-ported
to beta, however, in #24708, the `wrapping_neg` function had not yet been
backported, so the implementation was changed in #24785 to `!self + 1`. This
change had the unintended side effect of enabling debug overflow checks for the
`abs` function. Consequently, the current state of affairs is that the beta
branch checks for overflow in debug mode for `abs` and the nightly branch does
not.
This commit alters the behavior of nightly to have `abs` always check for
overflow in debug mode. This change is more consistent with the way the standard
library treats overflow as well, and it is also not a breaking change as it's
what the beta branch currently does (albeit if by accident).

This is a fork of the flt2dec portion of rust-strconv [1] with
a necessary relicensing (the original code was licensed CC0-1.0).
Each module is accompanied with large unit tests, integrated
in this commit as coretest::num::flt2dec. This module is added
in order to replace the existing core::fmt::float method.
The forked revision of rust-strconv is from 2015-04-20, with a commit ID
9adf6d3571c6764a6f240a740c823024f70dc1c7.

Ensures that the same error type is propagated throughout. Unnecessary leakage
of the internals is prevented through the usage of stability attributes.
Closes#24748
```asm
movzbl %dil, %eax
bsfl %eax, %eax
movl $32, %ecx
cmovnel %eax, %ecx
cmpl $32, %ecx
movl $8, %eax
cmovnel %ecx, %eax
```
which has some unnecessary overhead, having two conditional moves.
To improve the codegen, we can zero extend the 8 bit integer, then set
bit 8 and perform a cttz operation on the extended value. That way
there's no conditional operation involved at all.
This commit removes all the old casting/generic traits from `std::num` that are
no longer in use by the standard library. This additionally removes the old
`strconv` module which has not seen much use in quite a long time. All generic
functionality has been supplanted with traits in the `num` crate and the
`strconv` module is supplanted with the [rust-strconv crate][rust-strconv].

This is a breaking change due to the removal of these deprecated crates, and the
alternative crates are listed above.

`wrapping_shl`, `wrapping_shr`.
All marked unstable under `core` feature for now (with expectation of
being marked as stable by 1.0 release).
