Work in progress cranelift codegen backend for rust

⚠⚠⚠ This doesn't do much useful yet ⚠⚠⚠

Building

$ git clone https://github.com/bjorn3/rustc_codegen_cranelift.git
$ cd rustc_codegen_cranelift
$ rustup override set nightly # This uses unstable api's which will never be stabilized
$ cargo install xargo         # Used for building the sysroot
$ cargo install hyperfine     # Used for benchmarking in build.sh
$ cargo build

Usage

$ rustc -Zcodegen-backend=$(pwd)/target/debug/librustc_codegen_cranelift.so my_crate.rs

Build sysroot and test

$ rustup component add rust-src # Make sure the sysroot source is available
$ ./prepare_libcore.sh          # Patch the sysroot source for some not yet supported things
$ ./build.sh

Not yet supported

Troubleshooting

Can't compile

Try updating your nightly compiler. You can try to use an nightly a day or two older if updating rustc doesn't fix it. If you still can't compile it, please fill an issue.

error[E0463]: can't find crate for std while compiling a no_std crate

If you use RUSTFLAGS to pass -Zcodegen-backend to rustc, cargo will compile build-dependencies with those flags too. Because this project doesn't support libstd yet, that will result in an error. I don't know of any way to fix this. :(
