`FixedSizeArray` is meant to be implemented for arrays of fixed size only, but can be implemented for anything at the moment. Marking the trait unsafe would make it more reasonable to write unsafe code which operates on fixed size arrays of any size.
For example, using `uninitialized` to create a fixed size array and immediately filling it with a fixed value is externally safe:
```
pub fn init_with_nones<T, A: FixedSizeArray<Option<T>>>() -> A {
let mut res = unsafe { mem::uninitialized() };
for elm in res.as_mut_slice().iter_mut() {
*elm = None;
}
res
}
```
But the same code is not safe if `FixedSizeArray` is implemented for other types:
```
struct Foo { foo: usize }
impl FixedSizeArray<Option<usize>> for Foo {
fn as_slice(&self) -> &[usize] { &[] }
fn as_mut_slice(&self) -> &mut [usize] { &mut [] }
}
```
now `init_with_nones() : Foo` returns a `Foo` with an undefined value for the field `foo`.

> 17:13 EDT < Moonlightning> I think I found a bug in the str::matches() documentation. Was it copied from str::split()? :p
> 17:13 EDT < Moonlightning> Because it says “The pattern can be a simple `&str`, `char`, or a closure that determines the split.”
I changed "determines the split" to "determines if a character matches".
It's not super clear, "determines the split" is not super clear to begin with, maybe this can be made better? On the other hand following the link to Pattern provides enough details.
separate use code between openbsd/netbsd
netbsd use c_int and c_uint, but openbsd not, resulting a unused_import
error.

problem introduced by #28543
extend the search path of libraries to /usr/local/lib in `run-make`
testsuite. It should permit to find libstdc++.so on usual directory.

We don't actually probe for javac in all circumstances, so if you have
javac installed, but don't have antlr4 installed, and you're on Mac OS
X, then you'll get a message that javac is missing, even though that's
wrong.
To fix this, let's just be a bit more generic in the message, so that
it's the same no matter what part of the lexer tests you're missing.

This is part of some cleanup I did while investigating #28129.
This also ensures that `on_panic` is run even if the user has registered too many callbacks.

This patch replaces `Ident`s with `Name`s in data structures of HIR and updates the dependent crates to compile and pass `make check`.
Some HIR structures still use `Ident`s, namely `PathSegment`, `PatIdent`, `ExprWhile`, `ExprLoop`, `ExprBreak` and `ExprAgain`, they need them for resolve (but `PathSegment` is special, see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/6993#issuecomment-141256292).

Fixes#16264 / #18241.
As far as I can tell, it should be impossible for a trait to be inaccessible if it's in scope, so this check is unnecessary. Are there any cases where this check is actually needed?
Fixes#28279.
Currently
`common_supertype(*mut for<'a> Fn(&'a usize), *mut for<'a> Fn(&'a usize) + 'static)`
equals `*mut Fn(&usize)` which seems to be caused by `higher_ranked_sub()` allowing region variables to escape the comparison. This prevents inference from working properly with stuff like `Rc<Fn(&T)>`.

These changes introduce the ability to cross-compile working binaries for NetBSD/amd64. Previous support added in PR #26682 shared all its code with the OpenBSD implementation, and was therefore never functional (e.g. linking against non-existing symbols and using wrong type definitions). Nonetheless, the previous patches were a great starting point and made my work significantly easier. 😃
Because there are no stage0 snapshots for NetBSD (yet), I used a cross-compiler for NetBSD 7.0 RC3 and only tested some toy programs (threading and channels, stack guards, a small TCP/IP echo server and some other platform dependent bits). If someone could point me to documentation on how to generate a stage0 snapshot from a cross-compiler I'm happy to run the full test suite.
A few other notes regarding Rust on NetBSD/amd64:
- To preserve binary compatibility, NetBSD introduces new symbols for system call wrappers on breaking ABI changes and keeps the old (legacy) symbols around, see [this documentation](https://www.netbsd.org/docs/internals/en/chap-processes.html#syscalls_master) for some details. I went ahead and modified the `libc` and `std` crate to use the current (renamed) symbols instead of the legacy ones where I found them, but I might have missed some. Notably using the `sigaction` symbol (deprecated in 1998) instead of `__sigaction14` even triggers SIGSYS (bad syscall) on my amd64 setup. I also changed the type definitions to use the most recent version.
- NetBSD's gdb doesn't really support position independent executables, so you might want to turn that off for debugging, see [NetBSD Problem Report #48250](https://gnats.netbsd.org/48250).
- For binaries invoked using a relative path, NetBSD supports `$ORIGIN` only for short `rpath`s (~64 chars or so, I'm told). If running an executable fails with `execname not specified in AUX vector: No such file or directory`, consider invoking the binary using its full absolute path.
The `register` function is unstable and it is not used anymore, hence
it can be removed (together with the now-unused `Callback` type and
`static` variables).
This patch basically adds a target option for omitting the `-nodefaultlibs` flag when invoking the linker. I am not sure if this is the correct or only way to approach this problem, so any feedback is welcome.
Motivation: I'm currently working on a Rust target specification for the [rumprun](/rumpkernel/rumprun) unikernel. rumprun is based on rump kernels and uses NetBSDs libc and drivers to provide a POSIXy environment. It provides its own linker wrapper that generates binaries which can be "baked" into a unikernel after configuration. Using `-nodefaultlibs` on the rumprun linker will prevent it from selecting the search paths for the rumprun libraries. My current target implementation for rumprun is here: gandro/rust@295744b2ee
Currently, only a target that `is_like_windows` will omit the `-nodefaultlibs` flag, but since rumprun is not like Windows otherwise, I think a separate flag makes more sense. This might be a breaking change for target specifications that have the `is_like_windows` option set to true. Such targets need to set `no_default_libraries` to false in order to restore the old behavior.
The registration of `panicking::on_panic` as a general-purpose
callback is overcomplicated and can fail.
Instead, invoking it explicitly removes the need for locking and paves
the way for further improvements.
