Fix `read_exact` and `read_buf_exact` for `&[u8]` and `io:Cursor`
- Drain after `read_exact` and `read_buf_exact`
- Append to cursor in `read_buf_exact`
Improve several `Read` implementations
- `read_to_end` and `read_to_string` for `Cursor`
- Error on OOM in `read_to_string` of `&[u8]` and `VecDeque<u8>`
- Avoid making the slices contiguous in `VecDeque::read_to_string`
- ~`read_exact` and (unstable) `read_buf_exact` for `Take`~
- ~`read_buf` for `UnixStream` and `&UnixStream`~ (moved to #123084)
- `read_to_end` for `ChildStdErr`
Panic on overflow in `BorrowedCursor::advance`
Passing `usize::MAX` to `advance` clearly isn't correct, but the current assertion fails to detect this when overflow checks are disabled. This isn't unsound, but should probably be fixed regardless.
Avoid a panic in `set_output_capture` in the default panic handler
This avoid a panic in the default panic handler by not using `set_output_capture` as `OUTPUT_CAPTURE.with` may panic once `OUTPUT_CAPTURE` is dropped.
A new non-panicking `try_set_output_capture` variant of `set_output_capture` is added for use in the default panic handler.
Specialize many implementations of `Read::read_buf_exact`
This makes all implementations of `Read` that have a specialized `read_exact` implementation also have one for `read_buf_exact`.
io::Read trait: make it more clear when we are adressing implementations vs callers
Inspired by [this](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/72186#issuecomment-1987076295) comment.
For some reason we only have that `buf` warning in `read` and `read_exact`, even though it affects a bunch of other functions of this trait as well. It doesn't seem worth copy-pasting the same text everywhere though so I did not change this.
impl From<TryReserveError> for io::Error
There's an obvious mapping between these two errors, and it makes I/O code less noisy.
I've chosen to use simple `ErrorKind::OutOfMemory` `io::Error`, without keeping `TryReserveError` for the `source()`, because:
* It matches current uses in libstd,
* `ErrorData::Custom` allocates, which is a risky proposition for handling OOM errors specifically.
* Currently `TryReserveError` has no public fields/methods, so it's usefulness is limited. How allocators should report errors, especially custom and verbose ones is still an open question.
Just in case I've added note in the doccomment that this may change.
The compiler forced me to declare stability of this impl. I think this implementation is simple enough that it doesn't need full-blown stabilization period, and I've marked it for the next release, but of course I can adjust the attribute if needed.
Some implementations of `Write::write_vectored` in the standard
library (`BufWriter`, `LineWriter`, `Stdout`, `Stderr`) check all
buffers to calculate the total length. This is O(n) over the number of
buffers.
It's common that only a limited number of buffers is written at a
time (e.g. 1024 for `writev(2)`). `write_vectored_all` will then call
`write_vectored` repeatedly, leading to a runtime of O(n²) over the
number of buffers.
The fix is to only calculate as much as needed if it's needed.
Delete architecture-specific memchr code in std::sys
Currently all architecture-specific memchr code is only used in `std::io`. Most of the actual `memchr` capacity exposed to the user through the slice API is instead implemented in `core::slice::memchr`.
Hence this commit deletes `memchr` from `std::sys[_common]` and replace calls to it by calls to `core::slice::memchr` functions. This deletes `(r)memchr` from the list of symbols linked to libc.
The interest of putting architecture specific code back in core is linked to the discussion to be had in #113654

Specialize some methods of `io::Chain`
This PR specializes the implementation of some methods of `io::Chain`, which could bring performance improvements when using it.
