Currently, constructing a waker requires calling the unsafe
`Waker::from_raw` API. This API requires the user to manually construct
a vtable for the waker themself - which is both cumbersome and very
error prone. This API would provide an ergonomic, straightforward and
guaranteed memory-safe way of constructing a waker.
It has been our longstanding intention that the `Waker` type essentially
function as an `Arc<dyn Wake>`, with a `Wake` trait as defined here. Two
considerations prevented the original API from being shipped as simply
an `Arc<dyn Wake>`:
- We want to support futures on embedded systems, which may not have an
allocator, and in optimized executors for which this API may not be
best-suited. Therefore, we have always explicitly supported the
maximally-flexible (but also memory-unsafe) `RawWaker` API, and
`Waker` has always lived in libcore.
- Because `Waker` lives in libcore and `Arc` lives in liballoc, it has
not been feasible to provide a constructor for `Waker` from `Arc<dyn
Wake>`.
Therefore, the Wake trait was left out of the initial version of the
task waker API.
However, as Rust 1.41, it is possible under the more flexible orphan
rules to implement `From<Arc<W>> for Waker where W: Wake` in liballoc.
Therefore, we can now define this constructor even though `Waker` lives
in libcore.
This PR adds these APIs:
- A `Wake` trait, which contains two methods
- A required method `wake`, which is called by `Waker::wake`
- A provided method `wake_by_ref`, which is called by
`Waker::wake_by_ref` and which implementors can override if they
can optimize this use case.
- An implementation of `From<Arc<W>> for Waker where W: Wake + Send +
Sync + 'static`
- A similar implementation of `From<Arc<W>> for RawWaker`.
Return NonZeroU64 from ThreadId::as_u64.
As discussed in #67939, this allows turning Option<ThreadId> into Option<NonZeroU64> which
can then be stored inside an AtomicU64.
For issue 53957: revise unit test to focus on underlying bug of 23076.
Fix#53957 by revising unit test to focus on underlying bug of #23076.
Namely, this version focuses on the end-to-end behavior that the attempt to create the UDP binding will fail, regardless of the semantics of how particular DNS servers handle junk inputs.
(I spent some time trying to create a second more-focused test that would sidestep the DNS resolution, but this is not possible without more invasive changes to the internal infrastructure of `ToSocketAddrs` and what not. It is not worth it.)
Fix abort-on-eprintln during process shutdown
This commit fixes an issue where if `eprintln!` is used in a TLS
destructor it can accidentally cause the process to abort. TLS
destructors are executed after `main` returns on the main thread, and at
this point we've also deinitialized global `Lazy` values like those
which store the `Stderr` and `Stdout` internals. This means that despite
handling TLS not being accessible in `eprintln!`, we will fail due to
not being able to call `stderr()`. This means that we'll double-panic
quickly because panicking also attempt to write to stderr.
The fix here is to reimplement the global stderr handle to avoid the
need for destruction. This avoids the need for `Lazy` as well as the
hidden panic inside of the `stderr` function.
Overall this should improve the robustness of printing errors and/or
panics in weird situations, since the `stderr` accessor should be
infallible in more situations.
Use generator resume arguments in the async/await lowering
This removes the TLS requirement from async/await and enables it in `#![no_std]` crates.
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/56974
I'm not confident the HIR lowering is completely correct, there seem to be quite a few undocumented invariants in there. The `async-std` and tokio test suites are passing with these changes though.

unix: Set a guard page at the end of signal stacks
This mitigates possible issues when signal stacks overflow, which could
manifest as segfaults or in unlucky circumstances possible clobbering of
other memory values as stack overflows tend to enable.
I went ahead and made a PR for this because it's a pretty small change, though if I should open an issue/RFC for this and discuss there first I'll happily do so. I've also added some example programs that demonstrate the uncomfortably clobber-happy behavior we currently have, and the segfaults that could/should result instead, [here](https://github.com/iximeow/jubilant-train).
std: Don't abort process when printing panics in tests
This commit fixes an issue when using `set_print` and friends, notably
used by libtest, to avoid aborting the process if printing panics. This
previously panicked due to borrowing a mutable `RefCell` twice, and this
is worked around by borrowing these cells for less time, instead
taking out and removing contents temporarily.
Closes#69558

expand: Implement something similar to `#[cfg(accessible(path))]`
cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/64797
The feature is implemented as a `#[cfg_accessible(path)]` attribute macro rather than as `#[cfg(accessible(path))]` because it needs to wait until `path` becomes resolvable, and `cfg` cannot wait, but macros can wait.
Later we can think about desugaring or not desugaring `#[cfg(accessible(path))]` into `#[cfg_accessible(path)]`.
This implementation is also incomplete in the sense that it never returns "false" from `cfg_accessible(path)`, it requires some tweaks to resolve, which is not quite ready to answer queries like this during early resolution.
However, the most important part of this PR is not `cfg_accessible` itself, but expansion infrastructure for retrying expansions.
Before this PR we could say "we cannot resolve this macro path, let's try it later", with this PR we can say "we cannot expand this macro, let's try it later" as well.
This is a pre-requisite for
- turning `#[derive(...)]` into a regular attribute macro,
- properly supporting eager expansion for macros that cannot yet be resolved like
```
fn main() {
println!(not_available_yet!());
}
macro_rules! make_available {
() => { #[macro_export] macro_rules! not_available_yet { () => { "Hello world!" } }}
}
make_available!();
```
Implement a feature for a sound specialization subset
This implements a new feature (`min_specialization`) that restricts specialization to a subset that is reasonable for the standard library to use.
The plan is to then:
* Update `libcore` and `liballoc` to compile with `min_specialization`.
* Add a lint to forbid use of `feature(specialization)` (and other unsound, type system extending features) in the standard library.
* Fix the soundness issues around `specialization`.
* Remove `min_specialization`
The rest of this is an overview from a comment in this PR
## Basic approach
To enforce this requirement on specializations we take the following approach:
1. Match up the substs for `impl2` so that the implemented trait and self-type match those for `impl1`.
2. Check for any direct use of `'static` in the substs of `impl2`.
3. Check that all of the generic parameters of `impl1` occur at most once in the *unconstrained* substs for `impl2`. A parameter is constrained if its value is completely determined by an associated type projection predicate.
4. Check that all predicates on `impl1` also exist on `impl2` (after matching substs).
## Example
Suppose we have the following always applicable impl:
```rust
impl<T> SpecExtend<T> for std::vec::IntoIter<T> { /* specialized impl */ }
impl<T, I: Iterator<Item=T>> SpecExtend<T> for I { /* default impl */ }
```
We get that the subst for `impl2` are `[T, std::vec::IntoIter<T>]`. `T` is constrained to be `<I as Iterator>::Item`, so we check only `std::vec::IntoIter<T>` for repeated parameters, which it doesn't have. The predicates of `impl1` are only `T: Sized`, which is also a predicate of impl2`. So this specialization is sound.
## Extensions
Unfortunately not all specializations in the standard library are allowed by this. So there are two extensions to these rules that allow specializing on some traits.
### rustc_specialization_trait
If a trait is always applicable, then it's sound to specialize on it. We check trait is always applicable in the same way as impls, except that step 4 is now "all predicates on `impl1` are always applicable". We require that `specialization` or `min_specialization` is enabled to implement these traits.
### rustc_specialization_marker
There are also some specialization on traits with no methods, including the `FusedIterator` trait which is advertised as allowing optimizations. We allow marking marker traits with an unstable attribute that means we ignore them in point 3 of the checks above. This is unsound but we allow it in the short term because it can't cause use after frees with purely safe code in the same way as specializing on traits methods can.

Optimize catch_unwind to match C++ try/catch
This refactors the implementation of catching unwinds to allow LLVM to inline the "try" closure directly into the happy path, avoiding indirection. This means that the catch_unwind implementation is (after this PR) zero-cost unless a panic is thrown.
https://rust.godbolt.org/z/cZcUSB is an example of the current codegen in a simple case. Notably, the codegen is *exactly the same* if `-Cpanic=abort` is passed, which is clearly not great.
This PR, on the other hand, generates the following assembly:
```asm
# -Cpanic=unwind:
push rbx
mov ebx,0x2a
call QWORD PTR [rip+0x1c53c] # <happy>
mov eax,ebx
pop rbx
ret
mov rdi,rax
call QWORD PTR [rip+0x1c537] # cleanup function call
call QWORD PTR [rip+0x1c539] # <unfortunate>
mov ebx,0xd
mov eax,ebx
pop rbx
ret
# -Cpanic=abort:
push rax
call QWORD PTR [rip+0x20a1] # <happy>
mov eax,0x2a
pop rcx
ret
```
Fixes#64224, and resolves#64222.
This mitigates possible issues when signal stacks overflow, which could
manifest as segfaults or in unlucky circumstances possible clobbering of
other memory values as stack overflows tend to enable.
Implement Error for TryReserveError
I noticed that the Error trait wasn't implemented for TryReserveError. (#48043)
Not sure if the error messages and code style are 100% correct, it's my first time contributing to the Rust std.
Allow ZSTs in `AllocRef`
Allows ZSTs in all `AllocRef` methods. The implementation of `AllocRef` for `Global` and `System` were adjusted to reflect those changes.
This is the second item on the roadmap to support ZSTs in `AllocRef`: https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-allocators/issues/38#issuecomment-595861542
After this has landed, I will adapt `RawVec`, but since this will be a pretty big overhaul, it makes sense to do a different PR for it.
~~Requires #69794 to land first~~

Remove spotlight
I had a few comments saying that this feature was at best misunderstood or not even used so I decided to organize a poll about on [twitter](https://twitter.com/imperioworld_/status/1232769353503956994). After 87 votes, the result is very clear: it's not useful. Considering the amount of code we have just to run it, I think it's definitely worth it to remove it.
