This replaces cargo-fmt with rustfmt with --skip-children which should
allow us to format code without running into rust-lang/rustfmt#3930.
This also bumps up the version of rustfmt used to a more recent one.
Currently on CI we predominately compile LLVM with the default system compiler
which means gcc on Linux, some version of Clang on OSX, MSVC on Windows, and
gcc on MinGW. This commit switches Linux, OSX, and Windows to all use Clang
6.0.0 to build LLVM (aka the C/C++ compiler as part of the bootstrap). This
looks to generate faster code according to #49879 which translates to a faster
rustc (as LLVM internally is faster)
The major changes here were to the containers that build Linux releases,
basically adding a new step that uses the previous gcc 4.8 compiler to compile
the next Clang 6.0.0 compiler. Otherwise the OSX and Windows scripts have been
updated to download precompiled versions of Clang 6 and configure the build to
use them.
Note that `cc` was updated here to fix using `clang-cl` with `cc-rs` on MSVC, as
well as an update to `sccache` on Windows which was needed to correctly work
with `clang-cl`. Finally the MinGW compiler is entirely left out here
intentionally as it's currently thought that Clang can't generate C++ code for
MinGW and we need to use gcc, but this should be verified eventually.
In order to run tests, previous commits have cfg'd out various parts of
rustbuild. Generally speaking, these are filesystem-related operations
and process-spawning related parts. Then, rustbuild is run "as normal"
and the various steps that where run are retrieved from the cache and
checked against the expected results.
Note that this means that the current implementation primarily tests
"what" we build, but doesn't actually test that what we build *will*
build. In other words, it doesn't do any form of dependency verification
for any crate. This is possible to implement, but is considered future
work.
This implementation strives to cfg out as little code as possible; it
also does not currently test anywhere near all of rustbuild. The current
tests are also not checked for "correctness," rather, they simply
represent what we do as of this commit, which may be wrong.
Test cases are drawn from the old implementation of rustbuild, though
the expected results may vary.
On Windows, the gcc crate would send /Wall to msvc, which would cause
builds to get flooded with warnings, exploding compile times from one
hour to more than 72! The gcc crate version 0.3.54 changes this behavior
to send /W4 instead, which greatly cuts down on cl.exe flooding the
command prompt window with warnings.
Now that the final bug fixes have been merged into sccache we can start
leveraging sccache on the MSVC builders on AppVeyor instead of relying on the
ad-hoc caching strategy of trigger files and whatnot.
This commit optimizes the compile time for creating tarballs of cross-host
compilers and as a proof of concept adds two to the standard Travis matrix. Much
of this commit is further refactoring and refining of the `step.rs` definitions
along with the interpretation of `--target` and `--host` flags. This has gotten
confusing enough that I've also added a small test suite to
`src/bootstrap/step.rs` to ensure what we're doing works and doesn't regress.
After this commit when you execute:
./x.py dist --host $MY_HOST --target $MY_HOST
the build system will compile two compilers. The first is for the build platform
and the second is for the host platform. This second compiler is then packaged
up and placed into `build/dist` and is ready to go. With a fully cached LLVM and
docker image I was able to create a cross-host compiler in around 20 minutes
locally.
Eventually we plan to add a whole litany of cross-host entries to the Travis
matrix, but for now we're just adding a few before we eat up all the extra
capacity.
cc #38531
A few changes are included here:
* The `winapi` and `url` dependencies were dropped. The source code for these
projects is pretty weighty, and we're about to vendor them, so let's not
commit to that intake just yet. If necessary we can vendor them later but for
now it shouldn't be necessary.
* The `--frozen` flag is now always passed to Cargo, obviating the need for
tidy's `cargo_lock` check.
* Tidy was updated to not check the vendor directory
Closes#34687
This commit is a rewrite of the user-facing interface to the rustbuild build
system. The intention here is to make it much easier to compile/test the project
without having to remember weird rule names and such. An overall view of the new
interface is:
# build everything
./x.py build
# document everyting
./x.py doc
# test everything
./x.py test
# test libstd
./x.py test src/libstd
# build libcore stage0
./x.py build src/libcore --stage 0
# run stage1 run-pass tests
./x.py test src/test/run-pass --stage 1
The `src/bootstrap/bootstrap.py` script is now aliased as a top-level `x.py`
script. This `x` was chosen to be both short and easily tab-completable (no
collisions in that namespace!). The build system now accepts a "subcommand" of
what to do next, the main ones being build/doc/test.
Each subcommand then receives an optional list of arguments. These arguments are
paths in the source repo of what to work with. That is, if you want to test a
directory, you just pass that directory as an argument.
The purpose of this rewrite is to do away with all of the arcane renames like
"rpass" is the "run-pass" suite, "cfail" is the "compile-fail" suite, etc. By
simply working with directories and files it's much more intuitive of how to run
a test (just pass it as an argument).
The rustbuild step/dependency management was also rewritten along the way to
make this easy to work with and define, but that's largely just a refactoring of
what was there before.
The *intention* is that this support is extended for arbitrary files (e.g.
`src/test/run-pass/my-test-case.rs`), but that isn't quite implemented just yet.
Instead directories work for now but we can follow up with stricter path
filtering logic to plumb through all the arguments.
As the entry point for building the Rust compiler, a good user experience hinges
on this compiling quickly to get to the meat of the problem. To that end use
`#[cfg]`-specific dependencies to avoid building Windows crates on Unix and drop
the `regex` crate for now which was easily replacable with some string
searching.
The compiler-rt build system has been a never ending cause of pain for Rust
unfortunately:
* The build system is very difficult to invoke and configure to only build
compiler-rt, especially across platforms.
* The standard build system doesn't actually do what we want, not working for
some of our platforms and requiring a significant number of patches on our end
which are difficult to apply when updating compiler-rt.
* Compiling compiler-rt requires LLVM to be compiled, which... is a big
dependency! This also means that over time compiler-rt is not guaranteed to
build against older versions of LLVM (or newer versions), and we often want to
work with multiple versions of LLVM simultaneously.
The makefiles and rustbuild already know how to compile C code, the code here is
far from the *only* C code we're compiling. This patch jettisons all logic to
work with compiler-rt's build system and just goes straight to the source. We
just list all files manually (copied from compiler-rt's
lib/builtins/CMakeLists.txt) and compile them into an archive.
It's likely that this means we'll fail to pick up new files when we upgrade
compiler-rt, but that seems like a much less significant cost to pay than what
we're currently paying.
cc #34400, first steps towards that
The organization in rustbuild was a little odd at the moment where the `lib.rs`
was quite small but the binary `main.rs` was much larger. Unfortunately as well
there was a `build/` directory with the implementation of the build system, but
this directory was ignored by GitHub on the file-search prompt which was a
little annoying.
This commit reorganizes rustbuild slightly where all the library files (the
build system) is located directly inside of `src/bootstrap` and all the binaries
now live in `src/bootstrap/bin` (they're small). Hopefully this should allow
GitHub to index and allow navigating all the files while maintaining a
relatively similar layout to the other libraries in `src/`.
rustbuild: Fix handling of the bootstrap key
Bring the calculation logic in line with the makefiles and also set the
RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP_KEY environment variable to enable the bootstrap on the stable
compiler.
Bring the calculation logic in line with the makefiles and also set the
RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP_KEY environment variable to enable the bootstrap on the stable
compiler.
This commit is the start of a series of commits which start to replace the
makefiles with a Cargo-based build system. The aim is not to remove the
makefiles entirely just yet but rather just replace the portions that invoke the
compiler to do the bootstrap. This commit specifically adds enough support to
perform the bootstrap (and all the cross compilation within) along with
generating documentation.
More commits will follow up in this series to actually wire up the makefiles to
call this build system, so stay tuned!
