This is part of the migration of crates into the Cargo ecosystem. There
is now an external repository https://github.com/rust-lang/num for bignums.
The single use of libnum elsewhere in the repository is for a shootout
benchmark, which is being moved into the external crate.
Due to deprecation, this is a:
[breaking-change]
lifetime bounds. This doesn't really cause any difficulties, because
we already had to accommodate the fact that multiple implicit bounds
could accumulate. Object types still require precisely one lifetime
bound. This is a pre-step towards generalized where clauses (once you
have lifetime bounds in where clauses, it is harder to restrict them
to exactly one).
This patch does not make many functional changes, but does a lot of restructuring towards the goals of #5527. This is the biggest patch, basically, that should enable most of the other patches in a relatively straightforward way.
Major changes:
- Do not track impls through trans, instead recompute as needed.
- Isolate trait matching code into its own module, carefully structure to distinguish various phases (selection vs confirmation vs fulfillment)
- Consider where clauses in their more general form
- Integrate checking of builtin bounds into the trait matching process, rather than doing it separately in kind.rs (important for opt-in builtin bounds)
What is not included:
- Where clauses are still not generalized. This should be a straightforward follow-up patch.
- Caching. I did not include much caching. I have plans for various kinds of caching we can do. Should be straightforward. Preliminary perf measurements suggested that this branch keeps compilation times roughly what they are.
- Method resolution. The initial algorithm I proposed for #5527 does not work as well as I hoped. I have a revised plan which is much more similar to what we do today.
- Deref vs deref-mut. The initial fix I had worked great for autoderef, but not for explicit deref.
- Permitting blanket impls to overlap with specific impls. Initial plan to consider all nested obligations before considering an impl to match caused many compilation errors. We have a revised plan but it is not implemented here, should be a relatively straightforward extension.
The wording is correct if you consider that two of these lines were extracted from the original example. It still tripped me up while reading, so i just removed any reference to the linecount.
This closes#17260. The guide references the old install location for
the windows rust install before it was split into 64bit and 32bit
installers. This adds a link to each binary.
1000 tasks * 2MiB stack size -> 2GiB of virtual memory
On a 64-bit OS, a 32-bit executable has 4GiB available, but the kernel
gets half of the available address space so the limit is 2GiB on 32-bit.
Closes#17044
I'm rotating in some CentOS 5.10 bots so we *actually* build on Linux 2.6.18
like we advertise doing so. Currently the snapshots are incompatible with CentOS
5.10 due to snapshots requiring glibc 2.6 and CentOS 5.10 having glibc 2.5.
It turns out that rustc only requires *one* symbol from glibc 2.6, which is
`futimens`. The rust distribution itself does not use this symbol, but LLVM
conditionally detects it and then uses it. This symbol isn't even called as part
of the compilation process, so we don't even need it!
The new snapshot was generated following these instructions [1]:
1. Download the current x86_64 linux snapshot and unpack it.
2. Open the rustc binary in a hex editor.
3. Change the linkage against glibc 2.6 from strong to *weak*
4. Write changes and re-run src/etc/make-snapshot.py
5. Upload new tarball to S3
On CentOS 5.10 a warning is printed each time the snapshot runs that the symbol
cannot be found (anyone with glibc 2.6+ does not have this warning printed). The
key part is that we can *bootstrap* on CentOS 5.10 at this point. The next
snapshot will be naturally compatible with glibc 2.3 (even older!) and will not
need to be manually edited.

Adds a new configure flag, --release-channel, which determines how the version
number should be augmented with a release label, as well as how the distribution
artifacts will be named. This is entirely for use by the build automation.
--release-channel can be either 'source', 'nightly', 'beta', or 'stable'.
Here's a summary of the affect of these values on version number and
artifact naming, respectively:
* source - '0.12.0-pre', 'rust-0.12.0-pre-...'
* nightly - '0.12.0-nightly', 'rust-nightly-...'
* beta - '0.12.0-beta', 'rust-beta-...'
* stable - '0.12.0', 'rust-0.12.0-...'
Per http://discuss.rust-lang.org/t/rfc-impending-changes-to-the-release-process/508/1
The `StrInterner::clear()` method takes self immutably but can invalidate references returned by `StrInterner::get_ref`. Since `get_ref` is unused, just remove it.
Closes#17181
Sized deallocation makes it pointless to provide an address that never
overlaps with pointers returned by an allocator. Code can branch on the
capacity of the allocation instead of a comparison with this sentinel.
This improves the situation in #8859, and the remaining issues are only
from the logging API, which should be disabled by default in optimized
release builds anyway along with debug assertions. The remaining issues
are part of #17081.
Closes#8859
- Unify the "well-formedness" checking that typeck was already doing with what
was taking place in kind.
- Move requirements that things be sized into typeck.
- I left the checking on upvars in kind, though I think it should eventually be
refactored into regionck (which would perhaps be renamed).
This reflects a general plan to convert typeck so that it registers
obligations or other pending things for conditions it cannot check
eventually. This makes it easier to identify all the conditions that
apply to an AST expression, but can also influence inference in somec
cases (e.g., `Send` implies `'static`, so I already had to promote a lot
of the checking that `kind.rs` was doing into typeck, this branch just
continues the process).
I would like to map this information back to AST nodes, so that we can print remarks with spans, and so that remarks can be enabled on a per-function basis. Unfortunately, doing this would require a lot more code restructuring — for example, we currently throw away the AST map and lots of other information before LLVM optimizations run. So for the time being, we print the remarks with debug location strings from LLVM. There's a warning if you use `-C remark` without `--debuginfo`.
Fixes#17116.
This isn't ready to merge yet.
The 'containers and iterators' guide is basically just a collection of stuff that should be in the module definitions. So I'm moving the guide to just an 'iterators' guide, and moved the info that was there into the right places.
So, is this a good path forward, and is all of the information still correct?
This updates our build system to prefer `i686-w64-mingw32` as the 32-bit windows triple instead of `i686-pc-mingw32`. This is an interim step to make the build artifacts consistent until https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15717 is done.
