Now that MSVC support has landed in the most recent nightlies we can now have
MSVC bootstrap itself without going through a GNU compiler first. Unfortunately,
however, the bootstrap currently fails due to the compiler not being able to
find the llvm-ar.exe tool during the stage0 libcore compile. The compiler cannot
find this tool because it's looking inside a directory that does not exist:
$SYSROOT/rustlib/x86_64-pc-windows-gnu/bin
The `gnu` on this triple is because the bootstrap compiler's host architecture
is GNU. The build system, however, only arranges for the llvm-ar.exe tool to be
available in this location:
$SYSROOT/rustlib/x86_64-pc-windows-msvc/bin
To resolve this discrepancy, the build system has been modified to understand
triples that are bootstrapped from another triple, and in this case copy the
native tools to the right location.
This takes the cases from `InvalidInput` where a data format error
was encountered. This is different from the documented semantics
of `InvalidInput`, which more likely indicate a programming error.
Fixesrust-lang/rfcs#906
This commit adds a ./configure option called `--disable-elf-tls` which disables
ELF based TLS (that which is communicated to LLVM) on platforms which already
support it. OSX 10.6 does not support this form of TLS, and some users of Rust
need to target 10.6 and are unable to do so due to the usage of TLS. The
standard library will continue to use ELF based TLS on OSX by default (as the
officially supported platform is 10.7+), but this adds an option to compile the
standard library in a way that is compatible with 10.6.
Closes#25342
Mark Arc function get_mut and method make_unique unsafe
This is a temporary mitigation for issue #24880 which points out that
these functions are racy in a particular situation where weak pointers
exist.
To mitigate this, mark the functions unsafe until this can be fixed or
another decision is made.
The `HashMap` and `HashSet` iterators use `RawTable::first_bucket_raw` which is generic and will get inlined cross-crate.
However, `first_bucket_raw` calls `calculate_offsets` and the call doesn't get inlined, despite being a simple function.
This missing `#[inline]` results in `hash_table::calculate_offsets` showing up at the top of a callgrind profile with 3 million calls (for the testcase in #25916).

This is a breaking change to unstable API, because the new version
requires an `unsafe` block. Review carefully if weak pointers may race
for any uses of this API and consider abandoning it.

The E0397 explanation, as I've written it, isn't really an explanation, but I'm not sure what to put here. I will happily take suggestions.
Partially addresses https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/25851
This adds an example from mem::swap, and provides some suggested uses of this
function.
This is my attempt to summarize the answers to a question I asked on reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/37jcul/what_is_forget_for/ and add the answers to the documentation so that no one else has to google or ask the question again.
This commit implements a number of standard traits for the standard library's
process I/O handles. The `FromRaw{Fd,Handle}` traits are now implemented for the
`Stdio` type and the `AsRaw{Fd,Handle}` traits are now implemented for the
`Child{Stdout,Stdin,Stderr}` types.
The stability markers for these implementations mention that they are stable for
1.1 as I will nominate this commit for cherry-picking to beta.

Change wording on comment on forget line to be more specific as to why we
need to call forget.
This breaks the examples up into three pieces. The last piece isn't
compiling for some reason.
