Building on the work of # 45684 this commit updates the compiler to
unconditionally load the `rustc_trans` crate at runtime instead of linking to it
at compile time. The end goal of this work is to implement # 46819 where rustc
will have multiple backends available to it to load.
This commit starts off by removing the `extern crate rustc_trans` from the
driver. This involved moving some miscellaneous functionality into the
`TransCrate` trait and also required an implementation of how to locate and load
the trans backend. This ended up being a little tricky because the sysroot isn't
always the right location (for example `--sysroot` arguments) so some extra code
was added as well to probe a directory relative to the current dll (the
rustc_driver dll).
Rustbuild has been updated accordingly as well to have a separate compilation
invocation for the `rustc_trans` crate and assembly it accordingly into the
sysroot. Finally, the distribution logic for the `rustc` package was also
updated to slurp up the trans backends folder.
A number of assorted fallout changes were included here as well to ensure tests
pass and such, and they should all be commented inline.
Prevent rustc overwriting input files
If rustc is invoked on a file that would be overwritten by the
compilation, the compilation now fails, to avoid accidental loss. This
resolves#13019. Kudos to @estebank, whose patch I finished off.
This commit alters how we compile LLVM by default enabling the WebAssembly
backend. This then also adds the wasm32-unknown-unknown target to get compiled
on the `cross` builder and distributed through rustup. Tests are not yet enabled
for this target but that should hopefully be coming soon!
doc-test: In Markdown tests, Use all of `<h1>` to `<h6>` as the test name
This mainly simplifies debugging error index tests, as the error codes are `<h2>`s in the huge document containing all codes.
This commit removes the `dep_graph` field from the `Session` type according to
issue #44390. Most of the fallout here was relatively straightforward and the
`prepare_session_directory` function was rejiggered a bit to reuse the results
in the later-called `load_dep_graph` function.
Closes#44390
Fix include! in doc tests
By making the path relative to the current file.
Fixes#43153
[breaking-change] - if you use `include!` inside a doc test, you'll need to change the path to be relative to the current file rather than relative to the working directory.
This attribute has two effects:
1. Items with this attribute and their children will have the "This is
supported on **** only" message attached in the documentation.
2. The items' doc tests will be skipped if the configuration does not
match.
This prevents compilation failure we want to document a platform-specific
module. Every function is replaced by `loop {}` using the same construct
as `--unpretty everybody_loops`.
Note also a workaround to #43636 is included: `const fn` will retain their
bodies, since the standard library has quite a number of them.
Prior to this PR, when we aborted because a "critical pass" failed, we
displayed the number of errors from that critical pass. While that's the
number of errors that caused compilation to abort in *that place*,
that's not what people really want to know. Instead, always report the
total number of errors, and don't bother to track the number of errors
from the last pass that failed.
This changes the compiler driver API to handle errors more smoothly,
and therefore is a compiler-api-[breaking-change].
Fixes#42793.
This change allows the user to add an `#[allow_fail]` attribute to
tests that will cause the test to compile & run, but if the test fails
it will not cause the entire test run to fail. The test output will
show the failure, but in yellow instead of red, and also indicate that
it was an allowed failure.
Consequently, session creation can no longer initialize LLVM.
The few places that use the compiler without going through
rustc_driver/CompilerCalls thus need to be careful to manually
initialize LLVM (via rustc_trans!) immediately after session
creation.
This means librustc is not rebuilt when LLVM changes.
Move the code for loading metadata from rlibs and dylibs from
rustc_metadata into rustc_trans, and introduce a trait to avoid
introducing a direct dependency on rustc_trans.
This means rustc_metadata is no longer rebuilt when LLVM changes.
