refactor to remove trans::adt and make rustc::ty::layout authoritative
I asked on IRC about optimizing struct layout by reordering fields from most-aligned to least-aligned and somehow ended up getting talked into doing this. The goal here is to make `layout` authoritative and to remove `adt`. The former has been accomplished by reimplementing `represent_type_uncached` and the latter is in progress. @eddyb thought I should make the PR now.
My plan is to reserve the actual optimization for a second PR, as this work is useful by itself.
Fix a variety of minor issues
CSS:
- use integer values for font-size in CSS
- use correct ordering of @import
- "invisible" isn't a tag - presume its a class
- "border-color" defines the complete border
python:
- use "not" instead of == "[]" for python
- prefer triple quoted docstrings
- prefer static functions where possible
- prefer modern style classes where possible
- remove semicolons;
global:
- remove duplicated words words
Don't let a type parameter named "Self" unchanged past HIR lowering.
Fixes#36638 by rewriting `Self` type parameters (which are a parse error) to a `gensym("Self")`.
Background: #35605 introduced code across rustc that determines `Self` by its keyword name.
Reverting the sanity checks around that would inadvertently cause confusion between the true `Self` of a `trait` and other type parameters named `Self` (which have caused parse errors already).
I do not like to use `gensym`, and we may do something different here in the future, but this should work.
Fix documentation with 'soft-float' codegen option
This option doesn't cause software FP routines
to be called, it only changes the float ABI.
Additionally, this option is ignored by all targets,
except the ARM eabihf ones.
Refactor away RBML from rustc_metadata.
RBML and `ty{en,de}code` have had their long-overdue purge. Summary of changes:
* Metadata is now a tree encoded in post-order and with relative backward references pointing to children nodes. With auto-deriving and type safety, this makes maintenance and adding new information to metadata painless and bug-free by default. It's also more compact and cache-friendly (cache misses should be proportional to the depth of the node being accessed, not the number of siblings as in EBML/RBML).
* Metadata sizes have been reduced, for `libcore` it went down 16% (`8.38MB` -> `7.05MB`) and for `libstd` 14% (`3.53MB` -> `3.03MB`), while encoding more or less the same information
* Specialization is used in the bundled `libserialize` (crates.io `rustc_serialize` remains unaffected) to customize the encoding (and more importantly, decoding) of various types, most notably those interned in the `TyCtxt`. Some of this abuses a soundness hole pending a fix (cc @aturon), but when that fix arrives, we'll move to macros 1.1 `#[derive]` and custom `TyCtxt`-aware serialization traits.
* Enumerating children of modules from other crates is now orthogonal to describing those items via `Def` - this is a step towards bridging crate-local HIR and cross-crate metadata
* `CrateNum` has been moved to `rustc` and both it and `NodeId` are now newtypes instead of `u32` aliases, for specializing their decoding. This is `[syntax-breaking]` (cc @Manishearth ).
