This commit adds the necessary definitions for target specs and such as well as
the necessary support in libstd to compile basic `aarch64-pc-windows-msvc`
binaries. The target is not currently built on CI, but it can be built locally
with:
./configure --target=aarch64-pc-windows-msvc --set rust.lld
./x.py build src/libstd --target aarch64-pc-windows-msvc
Currently this fails to build `libtest` due to a linker bug (seemingly in LLD?)
which hasn't been investigate yet. Otherwise though with libstd you can build a
hello world program (linked with LLD). I've not tried to execute it yet, but it
at least links!
Full support for this target is still a long road ahead, but this is hopefully a
good stepping stone to get started.
Points of note about this target are:
* Currently defaults to `panic=abort` as support is still landing in LLVM for
SEH on AArch64.
* Currently defaults to LLD as a linker as I was able to get farther with it
than I was with `link.exe`
PR #47252 switched stack inspection functions of dbghelp.dll
to their newer alternatives that also capture inlined context.
Unfortunately, said new alternatives are not present in older
dbghelp.dll versions.
In particular Windows 7 at the time of writing has dbghelp.dll
version 6.1.7601 from 2010, that lacks StackWalkEx and friends.
Fixes#50138
This commit removes usage of the `libc` crate in "portable" modules like
those at the top level and `sys_common`. Instead common types like `*mut
u8` or `u32` are used instead of `*mut c_void` or `c_int` as well as
switching to platform-specific functions like `sys::strlen` instead of
`libc::strlen`.
- `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` prints all the informations (old behaviour)
- `RUST_BACKTRACE=(0|no)` disables the backtrace.
- `RUST_BACKTRACE=<everything else>` (including `1`) shows a simplified
backtrace, without the function addresses and with cleaned filenames
and symbols. Also removes some unneded frames at the beginning and the
end.
Fixes#37783.
PR is #38165.
