Most notably, this commit changes the `pub use crate::*;` in that file
to `use crate::*;`. This requires a lot of `use` items in other crates
to be adjusted, because everything defined within `rustc_span::*` was
also available via `rustc_span::source_map::*`, which is bizarre.
The commit also removes `SourceMap::span_to_relative_line_string`, which
is unused.
rustdoc: Document lack of object safety on affected traits
Closes#85138
I saw the issue didn't have any recent activity, if there is another MR for it I missed it.
I want the issue to move forward so here is my proposition.
It takes some space just before the "Implementors" section and only if the trait is **not** object
safe since it is the only case where special care must be taken in some cases and this has the
benefit of avoiding generation of HTML in (I hope) the common case.
Store #[deprecated] attribute's `since` value in parsed form
This PR implements the first followup bullet listed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/117148#issue-1960240108.
We centralize error handling to the attribute parsing code in `compiler/rustc_attr/src/builtin.rs`, and thereby remove some awkward error codepaths from later phases of compilation that had to make sense of these #\[deprecated\] attributes, namely `compiler/rustc_passes/src/stability.rs` and `compiler/rustc_middle/src/middle/stability.rs`.
rustdoc: elide cross-crate default generic arguments
Elide cross-crate generic arguments if they coincide with their default.
TL;DR: Most notably, no more `Box<…, Global>` in `std`'s docs, just `Box<…>` from now on.
Fixes#80379.
Also helps with #44306. Follow-up to #103885, #107637.

This should hopefully reduce memory usage and improve performance since
these vectors are often empty (and `GenericParamDefKind` is constructed

rustdoc: use JS to inline target type impl docs into alias
Preview docs:
- https://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/js-trait-alias/std/io/type.Result.html
- https://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/js-trait-alias-compiler/rustc_middle/ty/type.PolyTraitRef.html
This pull request also includes a bug fix for trait alias inlining across crates. This means more documentation is generated, and is why ripgrep runs slower (it's a thin wrapper on top of the `grep` crate, so 5% of its docs are now the Result type).
- Before, built with rustdoc 1.75.0-nightly (aa1a71e9e 2023-10-26), Result type alias method docs are missing: http://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/ripgrep-js-nightly/rg/type.Result.html
- After, built with this branch, all the methods on Result are shown: http://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/ripgrep-js-trait-alias/rg/type.Result.html
*Review note: This is mostly just reverting https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115201. The last commit has the new work in it.*
Fixes#115718
This is an attempt to balance three problems, each of which would
be violated by a simpler implementation:
- A type alias should show all the `impl` blocks for the target
type, and vice versa, if they're applicable. If nothing was
done, and rustdoc continues to match them up in HIR, this
would not work.
- Copying the target type's docs into its aliases' HTML pages
directly causes far too much redundant HTML text to be generated
when a crate has large numbers of methods and large numbers
of type aliases.
- Using JavaScript exclusively for type alias impl docs would
be a functional regression, and could make some docs very hard
to find for non-JS readers.
- Making sure that only applicable docs are show in the
resulting page requires a type checkers. Do not reimplement
the type checker in JavaScript.
So, to make it work, rustdoc stashes these type-alias-inlined docs
in a JSONP "database-lite". The file is generated in `write_shared.rs`,
included in a `<script>` tag added in `print_item.rs`, and `main.js`
takes care of patching the additional docs into the DOM.
The format of `trait.impl` and `type.impl` JS files are superficially
similar. Each line, except the JSONP wrapper itself, belongs to a crate,
and they are otherwise separate (rustdoc should be idempotent). The
"meat" of the file is HTML strings, so the frontend code is very simple.
Links are relative to the doc root, though, so the frontend needs to fix
that up, and inlined docs can reuse these files.
However, there are a few differences, caused by the sophisticated
features that type aliases have. Consider this crate graph:
```text
---------------------------------
| crate A: struct Foo<T> |
| type Bar = Foo<i32> |
| impl X for Foo<i8> |
| impl Y for Foo<i32> |
---------------------------------
|
----------------------------------
| crate B: type Baz = A::Foo<i8> |
| type Xyy = A::Foo<i8> |
| impl Z for Xyy |
----------------------------------
```
The type.impl/A/struct.Foo.js JS file has a structure kinda like this:
```js
JSONP({
"A": [["impl Y for Foo<i32>", "Y", "A::Bar"]],
"B": [["impl X for Foo<i8>", "X", "B::Baz", "B::Xyy"], ["impl Z for Xyy", "Z", "B::Baz"]],
});
```
When the type.impl file is loaded, only the current crate's docs are
actually used. The main reason to bundle them together is that there's
enough duplication in them for DEFLATE to remove the redundancy.
The contents of a crate are a list of impl blocks, themselves
represented as lists. The first item in the sublist is the HTML block,
the second item is the name of the trait (which goes in the sidebar),
and all others are the names of type aliases that successfully match.
This way:
- There's no need to generate these files for types that have no aliases
in the current crate. If a dependent crate makes a type alias, it'll
take care of generating its own docs.
- There's no need to reimplement parts of the type checker in
JavaScript. The Rust backend does the checking, and includes its
results in the file.
- Docs defined directly on the type alias are dropped directly in the
HTML by `render_assoc_items`, and are accessible without JavaScript.
The JSONP file will not list impl items that are known to be part
of the main HTML file already.

When these `Box<Generics>` types were introduced,
`Generics` was made with `Vec` and much larger.
Now that it's made with `ThinVec`, `Type` is bigger
and should be boxed instead.

be violated by a simpler implementation:

[rustdoc] Show enum discrimant if it is a C-like variant
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/101337.
We currently display values for associated constant items in traits:
And we also display constant values like [here](file:///home/imperio/rust/rust/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/doc/std/f32/consts/constant.E.html).
I think that for coherency, we should display values of C-like enum variants.
With this change, it looks like this:
As for the display of the constant value itself, I used what we already have to keep coherency.
We display the C-like variants value in the following scenario:
1. It is a C-like variant with a value set => all the time
2. It is a C-like variant without a value set: All other variants are C-like variants and at least one them has its value set.
Here is the result in code:
```rust
// Ax and Bx value will be displayed.
enum A {
Ax = 12,
Bx,
}
// Ax and Bx value will not be displayed
enum B {
Ax,
Bx,
}
// Bx value will not be displayed
enum C {
Ax(u32),
Bx,
}
// Bx value will not be displayed, Cx value will be displayed.
#[repr(u32)]
enum D {
Ax(u32),
Bx,
Cx = 12,
}

rustdoc: fix & clean up handling of cross-crate higher-ranked parameters
Preparatory work for the refactoring planned in #113015 (for correctness & maintainability).
---
1. Render the higher-ranked parameters of cross-crate function pointer types **(*)**.
2. Replace occurrences of `collect_referenced_late_bound_regions()` (CRLBR) with `bound_vars()`.
The former is quite problematic and the use of the latter allows us to yank a lot of hacky code **(†)**
as you can tell from the diff! :)
3. Add support for cross-crate higher-ranked types (`#![feature(non_lifetime_binders)]`).
We were previously ICE'ing on them (see `inline_cross/non_lifetime_binders.rs`).
---
**(*)**: Extracted from test `inline_cross/fn-type.rs`:
```diff
- fn(_: &'z fn(_: &'b str), _: &'a ()) -> &'a ()
+ for<'z, 'a, '_unused> fn(_: &'z for<'b> fn(_: &'b str), _: &'a ()) -> &'a ()
```
**(†)**: It returns an `FxHashSet` which isn't *predictable* or *stable* wrt. source code (`.rmeta`) changes. To elaborate, the ordering of late-bound regions doesn't necessarily reflect the ordering found in the source code. It does seem to be stable across compilations but modifying the source code of the to-be-documented crates (like adding or renaming items) may result in a different order:
<details><summary>Example</summary>
Let's assume that we're documenting the cross-crate re-export of `produce` from the code below. On `master`, rustdoc would render the list of binders as `for<'x, 'y, 'z>`. However, once you add back the functions `a`–`l`, it would be rendered as `for<'z, 'y, 'x>` (reverse order)! Results may vary. `bound_vars()` fixes this as it returns them in source order.
```rs
// pub fn a() {}
// pub fn b() {}
// pub fn c() {}
// pub fn d() {}
// pub fn e() {}
// pub fn f() {}
// pub fn g() {}
// pub fn h() {}
// pub fn i() {}
// pub fn j() {}
// pub fn k() {}
// pub fn l() {}
pub fn produce() -> impl for<'x, 'y, 'z> Trait<'z, 'y, 'x> {}
pub trait Trait<'a, 'b, 'c> {}
impl Trait<'_, '_, '_> for () {}
```
</details>
Further, as the name suggests, CRLBR only collects *referenced* regions and thus we drop unused binders. `bound_vars()` contains unused binders on the other hand. Let's stay closer to the source where possible and keep unused binders.
Lastly, using `bound_vars()` allows us to get rid of
* the deduplication and alphabetical sorting hack in `simplify.rs`
* the weird field `bound_params` on `EqPredicate`
both of which were introduced by me in #102707 back when I didn't know better.
To illustrate, let's look at the cross-crate bound `T: for<'a, 'b> Trait<A<'a> = (), B<'b> = ()>`.
* With CRLBR + `EqPredicate.bound_params`, *before* bounds simplification we would have the bounds `T: Trait`, `for<'a> <T as Trait>::A<'a> == ()` and `for<'b> <T as Trait>::B<'b> == ()` which required us to merge `for<>`, `for<'a>` and `for<'b>` into `for<'a, 'b>` in a deterministic manner and without introducing duplicate binders.
* With `bound_vars()`, we now have the bounds `for<'a, b> T: Trait`, `<T as Trait>::A<'a> == ()` and `<T as Trait>::B<'b> == ()` before bound simplification similar to rustc itself. This obviously no longer requires any funny merging of `for<>`s. On top of that `for<'a, 'b>` is guaranteed to be in source order.
rename mir::Constant -> mir::ConstOperand, mir::ConstKind -> mir::Const
Also, be more consistent with the `to/eval_bits` methods... we had some that take a type and some that take a size, and then sometimes the one that takes a type is called `bits_for_ty`.
Turns out that `ty::Const`/`mir::ConstKind` carry their type with them, so we don't need to even pass the type to those `eval_bits` functions at all.
However this is not properly consistent yet: in `ty` we have most of the methods on `ty::Const`, but in `mir` we have them on `mir::ConstKind`. And indeed those two types are the ones that correspond to each other. So `mir::ConstantKind` should actually be renamed to `mir::Const`. But what to do with `mir::Constant`? It carries around a span, that's really more like a constant operand that appears as a MIR operand... it's more suited for `syntax.rs` than `consts.rs`, but the bigger question is, which name should it get if we want to align the `mir` and `ty` types? `ConstOperand`? `ConstOp`? `Literal`? It's not a literal but it has a field called `literal` so it would at least be consistently wrong-ish...
``@oli-obk`` any ideas?
Pretty-print argument-position impl trait to name it.
This removes a corner case.
RPIT and TAIT keep having no name, and it would be wrong to use the one in HIR (Ident::empty), so I make this case ICE.
move things out of mir/mod.rs
This moves a bunch of things out of `mir/mod.rs`:
- all const-related stuff to a new file consts.rs
- all statement/place/operand-related stuff to a new file statement.rs
- all pretty-printing related stuff to pretty.rs
`mod.rs` started out with 3100 lines and ends up with 1600. :)
Also there was some pretty-printing stuff in terminator.rs, that also got moved to pretty.rs, and I reordered things in pretty.rs so that it can be grouped by functionality.
Only the commit "use pretty_print_const_value from MIR constant 'extra' printing" has any behavior changes; it resolves the issue of having a fancy and a very crude pretty-printer for `ConstValue`.

## Description
When writing a type-driven search query in rustdoc, specifically one with more than one query element, non-existent types become generic parameters instead of auto-correcting (which is currently only done for single-element queries) or giving no result. You can also force a generic type parameter by writing `generic:T` (and can force it to not use a generic type parameter with something like `struct:T` or whatever, though if this happens it means the thing you're looking for doesn't exist and will give you no results).
There is no syntax provided for specifying type constraints for generic type parameters.
When you have a generic type parameter in a search query, it will only match up with generic type parameters in the actual function, not concrete types that match, not concrete types that implement a trait. It also strictly matches based on when they're the same or different, so `option<T>, option<U> -> option<U>` matches `Option::and`, but not `Option::or`. Similarly, `option<T>, option<T> -> option<T>` matches `Option::or`, but not `Option::and`.
## Motivation
This feature is motivated by the many "combinitor"-type functions found in generic libraries, such as Option, Future, Iterator, and Entry. These highly-generic functions have names that are almost completely arbitrary, and a type signature that tells you what it actually does.
This PR is a major step towards[^closure] being able to easily search for generic functions by their type signature instead of by name. Some examples of combinators that can be found using this PR (try them out in the preview):
* `option<option<T>> -> option<T>` returns Option::flatten
* `option<T> -> result<T>` returns Option::ok_or
* `option<result<T>> -> result<option<T>>` returns Option::transpose
* `entry<K, V>, FnOnce -> V` returns `Entry::or_insert_with` (and `or_insert_with_key`, since there's no way to specify the generics on FnOnce)
[^closure]:
For this feature to be as useful as it ought to be, you should be able to search for *trait-associated types* and *closures*. This PR does not implement either of these: they are **Future possibilities**.
Trait-associated types would allow queries like `option<T> -> iterator<item=T>` to return `Option::iter`. We should also allow `option<T> -> iterator<T>` to match the associated type version.
Closures would make a good way to query for things like `Option::map`. Closure support needs associated types to be represented in the search index, since `FnOnce() -> i32` desugars to `FnOnce<Output=i32, ()>`, so associated trait types should be implemented first. Also, we'd want to expose an easy way to query closures without specifying which of the three traits you want.
When writing a type-driven search query in rustdoc, specifically one
with more than one query element, non-existent types become generic
parameters instead of auto-correcting (which is currently only done
for single-element queries) or giving no result. You can also force a
generic type parameter by writing `generic:T` (and can force it to not
use a generic type parameter with something like `struct:T` or whatever,
though if this happens it means the thing you're looking for doesn't
exist and will give you no results).
There is no syntax provided for specifying type constraints
for generic type parameters.
When you have a generic type parameter in a search query, it will only
match up with generic type parameters in the actual function, not
concrete types that match, not concrete types that implement a trait.
It also strictly matches based on when they're the same or different,
so `option<T>, option<U> -> option<U>` matches `Option::and`, but not
`Option::or`. Similarly, `option<T>, option<T> -> option<T>`` matches
`Option::or`, but not `Option::and`.
