This commit introduces 128-bit integers. Stage 2 builds and produces a working compiler which
understands and supports 128-bit integers throughout.
The general strategy used is to have rustc_i128 module which provides aliases for iu128, equal to
iu64 in stage9 and iu128 later. Since nowhere in rustc we rely on large numbers being supported,
this strategy is good enough to get past the first bootstrap stages to end up with a fully working
128-bit capable compiler.
In order for this strategy to work, number of locations had to be changed to use associated
max_value/min_value instead of MAX/MIN constants as well as the min_value (or was it max_value?)
had to be changed to use xor instead of shift so both 64-bit and 128-bit based consteval works
(former not necessarily producing the right results in stage1).
This commit includes manual merge conflict resolution changes from a rebase by @est31.
Removes the `STATUSES` static which duplicates truth from the pattern
match in `collect_lang_features`.
Fixes existing duplicates by renaming:
- never_type{,_impls} on `impl`s on `!`
- concat_idents{,_macro} on `macro_rules! concat_idents`
Fixes#37013.
I think these just got out of sync, but both use a lexicographic
ordering.

Knowing the result of equality comparison can enable additional
optimizations in LLVM.
Additionally, this makes it obvious that `partial_cmp` on totally
ordered types cannot return `None`.
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.
The replacements are functions that usually use a single `mem::transmute` in
their body and restrict input and output via more concrete types than `T` and
`U`. Worth noting are the `transmute` functions for slices and the `from_utf8*`
family for mutable slices. Additionally, `mem::transmute` was often used for
casting raw pointers, when you can already cast raw pointers just fine with
`as`.
Many of these have long since reached their stage of being obsolete, so this
commit starts the removal process for all of them. The unstable features that
were deprecated are:
* cmp_partial
* fs_time
* hash_default
* int_slice
* iter_min_max
* iter_reset_fuse
* iter_to_vec
* map_in_place
* move_from
* owned_ascii_ext
* page_size
* read_and_zero
* scan_state
* slice_chars
* slice_position_elem
* subslice_offset
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
This is a deprecated attribute that is slated for removal, and it also affects
all implementors of the trait. This commit removes the attribute and fixes up
implementors accordingly. The primary implementation which was lost was the
ability to compare `&[T]` and `Vec<T>` (in that order).
This change also modifies the `assert_eq!` macro to not consider both directions
of equality, only the one given in the left/right forms to the macro. This
modification is motivated due to the fact that `&[T] == Vec<T>` no longer
compiles, causing hundreds of errors in unit tests in the standard library (and
likely throughout the community as well).
