The invocation for making a directory should be able to specify a mode to make
the directory with (instead of defaulting to one particular mode). Additionally,
libuv and various OSes implement efficient versions of renaming files, so this
operation is exposed as an IoFactory call.
This commit changes drop glue generated for structs to use the invoke LLVM
instruction instead of call. What this means is that if the user destructor
triggers an unwinding, then the fields of the struct will still ge dropped.
This is not an attempt to support failing while failing, as that's mostly a
problem of runtime support. This is more of an issue of soundness in making sure
that destructors are appropriately run. The test included fails before this
commit, and only has one call to fail!(), yet it doesn't destroy its struct
fields.
New standards have arisen in recent months, mostly for the use of
rustpkg, but the main Rust codebase has not been altered to match these
new specifications. This changeset rectifies most of these issues.
- Renamed the crate source files `src/libX/X.rs` to `lib.rs`, for
consistency with current styles; this affects extra, rustc, rustdoc,
rustpkg, std, syntax.
- Renamed `X/X.rs` to `X/mod.rs,` as is now recommended style, for
`std::num` and `std::terminfo`.
- Shifted `src/libstd/str/ascii.rs` out of the otherwise unused `str`
directory, to be consistent with its import path of `std::ascii`;
libstd is flat at present so it's more appropriate thus.
While this removes some `#[path = "..."]` directives, it does not remove
all of them, and leaves certain other inconsistencies, such as `std::u8`
et al. which are actually stored in `src/libstd/num/` (one subdirectory
down). No quorum has been reached on this issue, so I felt it best to
leave them all alone at present. #9208 deals with the possibility of
making libstd more hierarchical (such as changing the crate to match the
current filesystem structure, which would make the module path
`std::num::u8`).
There is one thing remaining in which this repository is not
rustpkg-compliant: rustpkg would have `src/std/` et al. rather than
`src/libstd/` et al. I have not endeavoured to change that at this point
as it would guarantee prompt bitrot and confusion. A change of that
magnitude needs to be discussed first.

This commit removes the propagation of `link_args` attributes across crates. The first commit message has the reasons as to why. Additionally, this starts statically linking some C/C++ helper libraries that we have to their respective crates instead of throwing then in librustrt and then having everything depend on librustrt.
The major downside of this movement is that we're losing the ability to control visible symbols. I couldn't figure out a way to internalize symbols from a static library during the linking process, so everyone who links to librustdoc will be able to use its sundown implementation (not exactly ideal). I'm not entirely sure how to fix this (beyond generating a list of all public symbols, including rust ones, and passing that to the linker), but we may have a much easier time with this once we start using llvm's linker toolchain.
There's certainly a lot more possibilities in where this can go, but I didn't want to go too deep just yet. The main idea here is to stop propagating linker arguments and then see how we're able to start statically linking libraries as a result.
r? @catamorphism, you're going to be working on linking soon, so feel free to completely throw this away for something else!
Similarly to the previous commit, libuv is only used by this library, so there's
no need for it to be linked into librustrt and available to all crates by
default.
Previously, all functions called by a reachable function were considered
reachable, but this is only the case if the original function was possibly
inlineable (if it's type generic or #[inline]-flagged).
This is a fairly brittle modle that doesn't scale well across many crates. It's
unlikely that all of the downstream crates will have all of the original native
dependencies of all the upstream crates. In the case that FFI functions are
reachable, then it should be the responsibility of the downstream crate to link
against the correct library, or the upstream crate should prevent the functions
from being reachable.

Implements the [Gamma distribution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_distribution), using the algorithm described by Marsaglia & Tsang 2000[1]. I added tests checking that the mean and variance of this implementation is as expected for a range of values of the parameters in 5d87c00a0f (they pass locally, but obviously won't even build on Travis until this is merged).
Also, moves `std::rand::distributions` to a subfolder, and performs a minor clean-up of the benchmarking (makes the number of iterations shared by the whole `std::rand` subtree).

Previously we were actually overwriting `CFG_{HOST,TARGET,BUILD}` with `CFG_{HOST,TARGET,BUILD}_TRIPLE(S)` since configure tested for the legacy one by checking if it was empty which would never be the case. That meant it wouldn't split up multiple triples and just treat it as one long triple.
This pull also fixes the rules that were changed when librustuv was added to use the right CFG_ vars and removes the legacy flags.
Tests now have the same name as the test that they're running (to allow for
easier diagnosing of failure sources), and the main task is now specially named
`<main>` instead of `<unnamed>`.

This takes the last reforms on the `Option` type and applies them to `Result` too. For that, I reordered and grouped the functions in both modules, and also did some refactorings:
- Added `as_ref` and `as_mut` adapters to `Result`.
- Renamed `Result::map_move` to `Result::map` (same for `_err` variant), deleted other map functions.
- Made the `.expect()` methods be generic over anything you can
fail with.
- Updated some doc comments to the line doc comment style
- Cleaned up and extended standard trait implementations on `Option` and `Result`
- Removed legacy implementations in the `option` and `result` module

The previous method was unsound because you could very easily create two mutable
pointers which alias the same location (not sound behavior). This hides the
function which does so and then exports an explicit flush() function (with
documentation about how it works).
Cleaned up the source in a few places
Renamed `map_move` to `map`, removed other `map` methods
Added `as_ref` and `as_mut` adapters to `Result`
Added `fmt::Default` impl
Fix the implementation of `std::rand::Rng::fill_bytes()` for
`std::rand::reseeding::ReseedingRng` to call the `fill_bytes()` method
of the underlying RNG rather than itself, which causes infinite
recursion.
Fixes#10202.
The code was using (in the notation of Doornik 2005) `f(x_{i+1}) -
f(x_{i+2})` rather than `f(x_i) - f(x_{i+1})`. This corrects that, and
removes the F_DIFF tables which caused this problem in the first place.
They `F_DIFF` tables are a micro-optimisation (in theory, they could
easily be a micro-pessimisation): that `if` gets hit about 1% of the
time for Exp/Normal, and the rest of the condition involves RNG calls
and a floating point `exp`, so it is unlikely that saving a single FP
subtraction will be very useful (especially as more tables means more
memory reads and higher cache pressure, as well as taking up space in
the binary (although only ~2k in this case)).
Closes#10084. Notably, unlike that issue suggests, this wasn't a
problem with the Exp tables. It affected Normal too, but since it is
symmetric, there was no bias in the mean (as the bias was equal on the
positive and negative sides and so cancelled out) but it was visible as
a variance slightly lower than it should be.
New plot:
I've started writing some tests in [huonw/random-tests](https://github.com/huonw/random-tests) (not in the main repo because they can and do fail occasionally, due to randomness, but it is on Travis and Rust-CI so it will hopefully track the language), unsurprisingly, they're [currently failing](https://travis-ci.org/huonw/random-tests/builds/13313987) (note that both exp and norm are failing, the former due to both mean and variance the latter due to just variance), but pass at the 0.01 level reliably with this change.
(Currently the only test is essentially a quantitative version of the plots I've been showing, which is run on the `f64` `Rand` instance (uniform 0 to 1), and the Normal and Exp distributions.)
