Expand `avx512_target_feature` to include VEX variants
Added 5 new target features for x86:
- `AVX-IFMA`
- `AVX-NE-CONVERT`
- `AVX-VNNI`
- `AVX-VNNI_INT8`
- `AVX-VNNI_INT16`
Both LLVM and GCC already have support for these.

Clean up some comments near `use` declarations
#125443 will reformat all `use` declarations in the repository. There are a few edge cases involving comments on `use` declarations that require care. This PR cleans up some clumsy comment cases, taking us a step closer to #125443 being able to merge.

Add std Xtensa targets support
Adds std Xtensa targets. This enables using Rust on ESP32, ESP32-S2 and ESP32-S3 chips.
Tier 3 policy:
> A tier 3 target must have a designated developer or developers (the "target maintainers") on
record to be CCed when issues arise regarding the target. (The mechanism to track and CC such
developers may evolve over time.)
`@MabezDev,` `@ivmarkov` and I (`@SergioGasquez)` will maintain the targets.
> Targets must use naming consistent with any existing targets; for instance, a target for the same
CPU or OS as an existing Rust target should use the same name for that CPU or OS. Targets should
normally use the same names and naming conventions as used elsewhere in the broader ecosystem beyond
Rust (such as in other toolchains), unless they have a very good reason to diverge. Changing the
name of a target can be highly disruptive, especially once the target reaches a higher tier, so
getting the name right is important even for a tier 3 target.
The target triple is consistent with other targets.
> Target names should not introduce undue confusion or ambiguity unless absolutely necessary to
maintain ecosystem compatibility. For example, if the name of the target makes people extremely
likely to form incorrect beliefs about what it targets, the name should be changed or augmented to
disambiguate it.
> If possible, use only letters, numbers, dashes and underscores for the name. Periods (.) are known
to cause issues in Cargo.
We follow the same naming convention as other targets.
> Tier 3 targets may have unusual requirements to build or use, but must not create legal issues or
impose onerous legal terms for the Rust project or for Rust developers or users.
The target does not introduce any legal issues.
> The target must not introduce license incompatibilities.
There are no license incompatibilities
> Anything added to the Rust repository must be under the standard Rust license (MIT OR Apache-2.0).
Everything added is under that licenses
> The target must not cause the Rust tools or libraries built for any other host (even when
supporting cross-compilation to the target) to depend on any new dependency less permissive than the
Rust licensing policy. This applies whether the dependency is a Rust crate that would require adding
new license exceptions (as specified by the tidy tool in the rust-lang/rust repository), or whether
the dependency is a native library or binary. In other words, the introduction of the target must
not cause a user installing or running a version of Rust or the Rust tools to be subject to any new
license requirements.
Requirements are not changed for any other target.
> Compiling, linking, and emitting functional binaries, libraries, or other code for the target
(whether hosted on the target itself or cross-compiling from another target) must not depend on
proprietary (non-FOSS) libraries. Host tools built for the target itself may depend on the ordinary
runtime libraries supplied by the platform and commonly used by other applications built for the
target, but those libraries must not be required for code generation for the target;
cross-compilation to the target must not require such libraries at all. For instance, rustc built
for the target may depend on a common proprietary C runtime library or console output library, but
must not depend on a proprietary code generation library or code optimization library. Rust's
license permits such combinations, but the Rust project has no interest in maintaining such
combinations within the scope of Rust itself, even at tier 3.
The linker used by the targets is the GCC linker from the GCC toolchain cross-compiled for Xtensa.
GNU GPL.

Nvptx remove direct passmode
This PR does what should have been done in #117671. That is fully avoid using the `PassMode::Direct` for `extern "C" fn` for `nvptx64-nvidia-cuda` and enable the compatibility test. `@RalfJung` [pointed me in the right direction](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117480#issuecomment-2137712501) for solving this issue.
There are still some ABI bugs after this PR is merged. These ABI tests are created based on what is actually correct, and since they continue passing with even more of them enabled things are improving. I don't have the time to tackle all the remaining issues right now, but I think getting these improvements merged is very valuable in themselves and plan to tackle more of them long term.
This also doesn't remove the use of `PassMode::Direct` for `extern "ptx-kernel" fn`. This was also not trivial to make work. And since the ABI is hidden behind an unstable feature it's less urgent.
I don't know if it's correct to request `@RalfJung` as a reviewer (due to team structures), but he helped me a lot to figure out this stuff. If that's not appropriate then `@davidtwco` would be a good candidate since he know about this topic from #117671

NVPTX: Avoid PassMode::Direct for args in C abi
Fixes #117480
I must admit that I'm confused about `PassMode` altogether, is there a good sum-up threads for this anywhere? I'm especially confused about how "indirect" and "byval" goes together. To me it seems like "indirect" basically means "use a indirection through a pointer", while "byval" basically means "do not use indirection through a pointer".
The return used to keep `PassMode::Direct` for small aggregates. It turns out that `make_indirect` messes up the tests and one way to fix it is to keep `PassMode::Direct` for all aggregates. I have mostly seen this PassMode mentioned for args. Is it also a problem for returns? When experimenting with `byval` as an alternative i ran into [this assert](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/61a3eea8043cc1c7a09c2adda884e27ffa8a1172/compiler/rustc_codegen_llvm/src/abi.rs#L463C22-L463C22)
I have added tests for the same kind of types that is already tested for the "ptx-kernel" abi. The tests cannot be enabled until something like #117458 is completed and merged.

["-fsanitize=kcfi", "-flto", "-fvisibility=hidden"],
["-fsanitize=kernel-address"],
["-fsanitize=safe-stack"],
["-fsanitize=dataflow"],
]
for i in range(len(flags)):
for j in range(i):
command = ["clang++"] + flags[i] + flags[j] + ["-o", "main.o", "-c", "main.cpp"]
completed = subprocess.run(command, stderr=subprocess.DEVNULL)
if completed.returncode != 0:

second = flags[j][0][11:].replace('-', '').upper()

Refactor documentation for Apple targets
Refactor the documentation for Apple targets in `rustc`'s platform support page to make it clear what the supported OS version is and which environment variables are being read (`*_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET` and `SDKROOT`). This fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/124215.
Note that I've expanded the `aarch64-apple-ios-sim` maintainers `@badboy` and `@deg4uss3r` to include being maintainer of all `*-apple-ios-*` targets. If you do not wish to be so, please state that, then I'll explicitly note that in the docs.
Additionally, I've added myself as co-maintainer of most of these targets.
r? `@thomcc`
I think the documentation you've previously written on tvOS is great, have mostly modified it to have a more consistent formatting with the rest of the Apple target.
I recognize that there's quite a few changes here, feel free to ask about any of them!

Refactor float `Primitive`s to a separate `Float` type
Now there are 4 of them, it makes sense to refactor `F16`, `F32`, `F64` and `F128` out of `Primitive` and into a separate `Float` type (like integers already are). This allows patterns like `F16 | F32 | F64 | F128` to be simplified into `Float(_)`, and is consistent with `ty::FloatTy`.
As a side effect, this PR also makes the `Ty::primitive_size` method work with `f16` and `f128`.

rustc: Some small changes for the wasm32-wasip2 target
This commit has a few changes for the wasm32-wasip2 target. The first two are aimed at improving the compatibility of using `clang` as an external linker driver on this target. The default target to LLVM is updated to match the Rust target and additionally the `-fuse-ld=lld` argument is dropped since that otherwise interferes with clang's own linker detection. The only linker on wasm targets is LLD but on the wasip2 target a wrapper around LLD, `wasm-component-ld`, is used to drive the process and perform steps necessary for componentization.
The final commit changes the output of all objects on the wasip2 target to being PIC by default. This improves compatibilty with shared libaries but notably does not mean that there's a turnkey solution for shared libraries. The hope is that by having the standard libray work both with and without dynamic libraries will make experimentation easier.
|
|
Also sort the features.
|
|
This commit changes the new `wasm32-wasip2` target to being PIC by
default rather than the previous non-PIC by default. This change is
intended to make it easier for the standard library to be used in a
shared object in its precompiled form. This comes with a hypothetical
modest slowdown but it's expected that this is quite minor in most use
cases or otherwise wasm compilers and/or optimizing runtimes can elide
the cost.

LLVM has updated data layouts to specify `Fn32` on 64-bit ARM to avoid
C++ accidentally underaligning functions when trying to comply with
member function ABIs.
This should only affect Rust in cases where we had a similar bug (I
don't believe we have one), but our data layout must match to generate
code.
As a compatibility adaptatation, if LLVM is not version 19 yet, `Fn32`
gets voided from the data layout.

Change `SIGPIPE` ui from `#[unix_sigpipe = "..."]` to `-Zon-broken-pipe=...`
In the stabilization [attempt](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120832) of `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]`, a concern was [raised ](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120832#issuecomment-2007394609) related to using a language attribute for the feature: Long term, we want `fn lang_start()` to be definable by any crate, not just libstd. Having a special language attribute in that case becomes awkward.
So as a first step towards the next stabilization attempt, this PR changes the `#[unix_sigpipe = "..."]` attribute to a compiler flag `-Zon-broken-pipe=...` to remove that concern, since now the language is not "contaminated" by this feature.
Another point was [also raised](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120832#issuecomment-1987023484), namely that the ui should not leak **how** it does things, but rather what the **end effect** is. The new flag uses the proposed naming. This is of course something that can be iterated on further before stabilization.

This commit changes the LLVM target of for the Rust `wasm32-wasip2`
target to `wasm32-wasip2` as well. LLVM does a bit of detection on the
target string to know when to call `wasm-component-ld` vs `wasm-ld` so
otherwise clang is invoking the wrong linker.
