This PR solves #21559 by making sure that unreachable if-expressions are not further translated.
Could someone who knows their way around `trans` take a look at the changes in `controlflow.rs`? I'm not sure if any other code relies on any side-effects of translating unreachable things.

This permits all coercions to be performed in casts, but adds lints to warn in those cases.
Part of this patch moves cast checking to a later stage of type checking. We acquire obligations to check casts as part of type checking where we previously checked them. Once we have type checked a function or module, then we check any cast obligations which have been acquired. That means we have more type information available to check casts (this was crucial to making coercions work properly in place of some casts), but it means that casts cannot feed input into type inference.

* Adds two new lints for trivial casts and trivial numeric casts, these are warn by default, but can cause errors if you build with warnings as errors. Previously, trivial numeric casts and casts to trait objects were allowed.
* The unused casts lint has gone.
* Interactions between casting and type inference have changed in subtle ways. Two ways this might manifest are:
- You may need to 'direct' casts more with extra type information, for example, in some cases where `foo as _ as T` succeeded, you may now need to specify the type for `_`
- Casts do not influence inference of integer types. E.g., the following used to type check:
```
let x = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
Because the cast would inform inference that `x` must have type `u32`. This no longer applies and the compiler will fallback to `i32` for `x` and thus there will be a type error in the cast. The solution is to add more type information:
```
let x: u32 = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
With this PR in-place constants are handled correctly with respect to debug location assignment.
The PR also adds an (unrelated) test case for debug locations in `extern \"C\"` functions.
Fixes#22432
This allows to create proper debuginfo line information for items inlined from other crates (e.g. instantiations of generics).
Only the codemap's 'metadata' is stored in a crate's metadata. That is, just filename, line-beginnings, etc. but not the actual source code itself. We are thus missing the opportunity of making Rust the first "open-source-only" programming language out there. Pity.
Many of the modifications putting in `Box::new` calls also include a
pointer to Issue 22405, which tracks going back to `box <expr>` if
possible in the future.
(Still tried to use `Box<_>` where it sufficed; thus some tests still
have `box_syntax` enabled, as they use a mix of `box` and `Box::new`.)
Precursor for overloaded-`box` and placement-`in`; see Issue 22181.
This is the kind of change that one is expected to need to make to
accommodate overloaded-`box`.
----
Note that this is not *all* of the changes necessary to accommodate
Issue 22181. It is merely the subset of those cases where there was
already a let-binding in place that made it easy to add the necesasry
type ascription.
(For unnamed intermediate `Box` values, one must go down a different
route; `Box::new` is the option that maximizes portability, but has
potential inefficiency depending on whether the call is inlined.)
----
There is one place worth note, `run-pass/coerce-match.rs`, where I
used an ugly form of `Box<_>` type ascription where I would have
preferred to use `Box::new` to accommodate overloaded-`box`. I
deliberately did not use `Box::new` here, because that is already done
in coerce-match-calls.rs.

As part of [RFC 474](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/474), this
commit renames `std::path` to `std::old_path`, leaving the existing path
API in place to ease migration to the new one. Updating should be as
simple as adjusting imports, and the prelude still maps to the old path
APIs for now.

In preparation for upcoming changes to the `Writer` trait (soon to be called
`Write`) this commit renames the current `write` method to `write_all` to match
the semantics of the upcoming `write_all` method. The `write` method will be
repurposed to return a `usize` indicating how much data was written which
differs from the current `write` semantics. In order to head off as much
unintended breakage as possible, the method is being deprecated now in favor of
a new name.

This should fix issue #20797 (but I don't want to close it automatically).
As the actual fix is very small this would be a perfect candidate for a rollup.
This commit removes a number of deprecated flags from the compiler:
* opt-level => -C opt-level
* debuginfo => -C debuginfo
* print-crate-name => --print crate-name
* print-file-name => --print file-names
* no-trans => -Z no-trans
* no-analysis => -Z no-analysis
* parse-only => -Z parse-only
* dep-info => --emit dep-info
This commit also moves the --pretty flag behind `-Z unstable-options` as the
pretty printer will likely not be stable for 1.0
cc #19051
This gets rid of the 'experimental' level, removes the non-staged_api
case (i.e. stability levels for out-of-tree crates), and lets the
staged_api attributes use 'unstable' and 'deprecated' lints.
This makes the transition period to the full feature staging design
a bit nicer.
As per https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/20405. To be more precise, the changes just the processing of enums when the name is "RUST$ENCODED$ENUM$..." so it correctly parses when there is more than one number encoding the location of the field it's looking for to determine state of the enum
followed by a semicolon.
This allows code like `vec![1i, 2, 3].len();` to work.
This breaks code that uses macros as statements without putting
semicolons after them, such as:
fn main() {
...
assert!(a == b)
assert!(c == d)
println(...);
}
It also breaks code that uses macros as items without semicolons:
local_data_key!(foo)
fn main() {
println("hello world")
}
Add semicolons to fix this code. Those two examples can be fixed as
follows:
fn main() {
...
assert!(a == b);
assert!(c == d);
println(...);
}
local_data_key!(foo);
fn main() {
println("hello world")
}

This change makes the compiler no longer infer whether types (structures
and enumerations) implement the `Copy` trait (and thus are implicitly
copyable). Rather, you must implement `Copy` yourself via `impl Copy for
MyType {}`.
A new warning has been added, `missing_copy_implementations`, to warn
you if a non-generic public type has been added that could have
implemented `Copy` but didn't.
For convenience, you may *temporarily* opt out of this behavior by using
`#![feature(opt_out_copy)]`. Note though that this feature gate will never be
accepted and will be removed by the time that 1.0 is released, so you should
transition your code away from using it.
This breaks code like:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
Change this code to:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
impl Copy for Point2D {}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}

The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when
writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the
possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot
because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak
of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other
circumlocutions.
Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when
operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate
out a section describing the "Err-producing" case.
We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as
an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology
accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe.
To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead.
Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this
will work on UNIX based systems:
grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g'
You can of course also do this by hand.

LLDB doesn't allow for reading 'artifical' fields (fields that are generated by the compiler). So do not mark, slice fields, enum discriminants, and GcBox value fields as artificial.
This commit makes rustc emit debug locations for all call
and invoke statements in LLVM IR, if they are contained
within a function that debuginfo is enabled for. This is
important because LLVM does not handle the case where a
function body containing debuginfo is inlined into another
function with debuginfo, but the inlined call statement
does not have a debug location. In this case, LLVM will
not know where (in terms of source code coordinates) the
function was inlined to and we end up with some statements
still linked to the source locations in there original,
non-inlined function without any indication that they are
indeed an inline-copy. Later, when generating DWARF from
the IR, LLVM will interpret this as corrupt IR and abort.
Unfortunately, the undesirable case described above can
still occur when using LTO. If there is a crate compiled
without debuginfo calling into a crate compiled with
debuginfo, we again end up with the conditions triggering
the error. This is why some LTO tests still fail with the
dreaded assertion, if the standard library was built with
debuginfo enabled.
That is, `RUSTFLAGS_STAGE2=-g make rustc-stage2` will
succeed but `RUSTFLAGS_STAGE2=-g make check` will still
fail after this commit has been merged. This is a problem
that has to be dealt with separately.

As of RFC 18, struct layout is undefined. Opting into a C-compatible struct
layout is now down with #[repr(C)]. For consistency, specifying a packed
layout is now also down with #[repr(packed)]. Both can be specified.
To fix errors caused by this, just add #[repr(C)] to the structs, and change
#[packed] to #[repr(packed)]

So far, type names generated for debuginfo where a bit sketchy. It was not clearly defined when a name should be fully qualified and when not, if region parameters should be shown or not, and other things like that.
This commit makes the debuginfo module responsible for creating type names instead of using ppaux::ty_to_str() and brings type names, as they show up in the DWARF information, in line with GCC and Clang:
* The name of the type being described is unqualified. It's path is defined by its position in the namespace hierarchy.
* Type arguments are always fully qualified, no matter if they would actually be in scope at the type definition location.
Care is also taken to reliably make type names consistent across crate boundaries. That is, the code now tries make the type name the same, regardless if the type is in the local crate or reconstructed from metadata. Otherwise LLVM will complain about violating the one-definition-rule when using link-time-optimization.
This commit also removes all source location information from type descriptions because these cannot be reconstructed for types instantiated from metadata. Again, with LTO enabled, this can lead to two versions of the debuginfo type description, one with and one without source location information, which then triggers the LLVM ODR assertion.
Fortunately, source location information about types is rarely used, so this has little impact. Once source location information is preserved in metadata (#1972) it can also be reenabled for type descriptions.
floating point numbers for real.
This will break code that looks like:
let mut x = 0;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);
Change that code to:
let mut x = 0i;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);

With this change, rustc creates a unique type identifier for types in debuginfo. These type identifiers are used by LLVM to correctly handle link-time-optimization scenarios but also help rustc with dealing with inlining from other crates. For more information, see the documentation block at the top of librustc/middle/trans/debuginfo.rs.
Fixes#13681.
So far the DWARF information for enums was different
for regular enums, univariant enums, Option-like enums,
etc. Regular enums were encoded as unions of structs,
while the other variants were encoded as bare structs.
With the changes in this PR all enums are encoded as
unions so that debuggers can reconstruct if something
originally was a struct, a univariant enum, or an
Option-like enum. For the latter case, information
about the Null variant is encoded into the union field
name. This information can then be used by the
debugger to print a None value actually as None
instead of Some(0x0).
This commit revisits the `cast` module in libcore and libstd, and scrutinizes
all functions inside of it. The result was to remove the `cast` module entirely,
folding all functionality into the `mem` module. Specifically, this is the fate
of each function in the `cast` module.
* transmute - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is now marked as
#[unstable]. This is due to planned changes to the `transmute`
function and how it can be invoked (see the #[unstable] comment).
For more information, see RFC 5 and #12898
* transmute_copy - This function was moved to `mem`, with clarification that is
is not an error to invoke it with T/U that are different
sizes, but rather that it is strongly discouraged. This
function is now #[stable]
* forget - This function was moved to `mem` and marked #[stable]
* bump_box_refcount - This function was removed due to the deprecation of
managed boxes as well as its questionable utility.
* transmute_mut - This function was previously deprecated, and removed as part
of this commit.
* transmute_mut_unsafe - This function doesn't serve much of a purpose when it
can be achieved with an `as` in safe code, so it was
removed.
* transmute_lifetime - This function was removed because it is likely a strong
indication that code is incorrect in the first place.
* transmute_mut_lifetime - This function was removed for the same reasons as
`transmute_lifetime`
* copy_lifetime - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is marked
`#[unstable]` now due to the likelihood of being removed in
the future if it is found to not be very useful.
* copy_mut_lifetime - This function was also moved to `mem`, but had the same
treatment as `copy_lifetime`.
* copy_lifetime_vec - This function was removed because it is not used today,
and its existence is not necessary with DST
(copy_lifetime will suffice).
In summary, the cast module was stripped down to these functions, and then the
functions were moved to the `mem` module.
