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.
fix#120603 by adding a check in default_read_buf
Fixes#120603 by checking the returned read n is in-bounds of the cursor.
Interestingly, I noticed that `BorrowedBuf` side-steps this issue by using checked accesses. Maybe this can be switched to unchecked to mirror what BufReader does bf3c6c5bed/library/core/src/io/borrowed_buf.rs (L95)
detects redundant imports that can be eliminated.
for #117772 :
In order to facilitate review and modification, split the checking code and
removing redundant imports code into two PR.
unify read_to_end and io::copy impls for reading into a Vec
This ports over the initial probe (to avoid allocation) and the dynamic read sizing from the io::copy specialization to the `default_read_to_end` implementation which already had its own optimizations for different cases.
I think it should be a best-of-both now.

Improve rewind documentation
The persistent use of an internal cursor for readers is expected for buffer data types that aren't read all at once, but for files it leads to the confusing situation where calling `read_to_end` on the same file handle multiple times only returns the contents of the file for the first call. This PR adds a note to the documentation clarifying that in that case, `rewind()` must first be called.
I'm unsure if this is the right location for the docs update. Maybe it should also be duplicated on `File`?
Add Seek::seek_relative
The `BufReader` struct has a `seek_relative` method because its `Seek::seek` implementation involved dumping the internal buffer (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/31100).
Unfortunately, there isn't really a good way to take advantage of that method in generic code. This PR adds the same method to the main `Seek` trait with the straightforward default method, and an override for `BufReader` that calls its implementation.
_Also discussed in [this](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/add-seek-seek-relative/19546) internals.rust-lang.org thread._
The initial probe-for-empty-source by stack_buffer_copy only detected EOF
if the source was empty but not when it was merely small which lead to
additional calls to read() after Ok(0) had already been returned
in the stack copy routine
It now keeps track of initialized bytes to avoid reinitialization.
It also keeps track of read sizes to avoid initializing more bytes
than the reader needs. This is important when passing a huge vector to a
Read that only has a few bytes to offer and doesn't implement read_buf().
Inline `Bytes::next` and `Bytes::size_hint`.
This greatly increases its speed. On one small test program using `Bytes::next` to iterate over a large file, execution time dropped from ~330ms to ~220ms.
