Change all the target generation functions to return a Result<Target,
String> so that targets that are unable to be instantiated can be
expressed as an Err instead of a panic!(). This should improve #33497 as
well.
This adds a new target property, `target_vendor` which can be used as a
matcher for conditional compilation. The vendor is part of the autoconf
target triple: <arch><sub>-<vendor>-<os>-<env>
The default value for `target_vendor` is "unknown".
Matching against the `target_vendor` with `#[cfg]` is currently feature
gated as `cfg_target_vendor`.
Turns out for OSX our data layout was subtly wrong and the LLVM update must have
exposed this. Instead of fixing this I've removed all data layouts from the
compiler to just use the defaults that LLVM provides for all targets. All data
layouts (and a number of dead modules) are removed from the compiler here.
Custom target specifications can still provide a custom data layout, but it is
now an optional key as the default will be used if one isn't specified.
This adds a new `#[cfg]` matcher against the `target_env` property of the
destination target triple. For example all windows triples today end with `-gnu`
but we will also hopefully support non-`gnu` targets for Windows, at which point
we'll need to differentiate between the two. This new `target_env` matches is
provided and filled in with the target's environment name.
Currently the only non-empty value of this name is `gnu`, but `musl` will be
shortly added for the linux triples.
According to http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#data-layout correct syntax
for data layout is `a:<abi>:<pref>` so it looks like `a0:<abi>:<pref>` is
either a typo or outdated syntax (as it goes back pretty deep in time)
Removes all target-specific knowledge from rustc. Some targets have changed
during this, but none of these should be very visible outside of
cross-compilation. The changes make our targets more consistent.
iX86-unknown-linux-gnu is now only available as i686-unknown-linux-gnu. We
used to accept any value of X greater than 1. i686 was released in 1995, and
should encompass the bare minimum of what Rust supports on x86 CPUs.
The only two windows targets are now i686-pc-windows-gnu and
x86_64-pc-windows-gnu.
The iOS target has been renamed from arm-apple-ios to arm-apple-darwin.
A complete list of the targets we accept now:
arm-apple-darwin
arm-linux-androideabi
arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi
arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf
i686-apple-darwin
i686-pc-windows-gnu
i686-unknown-freebsd
i686-unknown-linux-gnu
mips-unknown-linux-gnu
mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu
x86_64-apple-darwin
x86_64-unknown-freebsd
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
