offsets in the type
|
|
|
|
|

Operations like is_aligned would return actively wrong results at compile-time,
i.e. calling it on the same pointer at compiletime and runtime could yield
different results. That's no good.
Instead of having hacks to make align_offset kind-of work in const-eval, just
use const_eval_select in the few places where it makes sense, which also ensures
those places are all aware they need to make sure the fallback behavior is
consistent.

Many tiny changes to stdlib doc comments to make them consistent (for example
"Returns foo", rather than "Return foo", per RFC1574), adding missing periods, paragraph
breaks, backticks for monospace style, and other minor nits.

So pointee metadata can be used in anonymous statics.
This is prerequisite for implementing ThinBox without allocation for
ZST.

* fix allocation alignment for 16bit platforms
* add edge case where `stride % align != 0` on pointers with provenance

On usize=u64 platforms, the 4th iteration would overflow the `mod_gate`
back to 0. Similarly for usize=u32 platforms, the 3rd iteration would
overflow much the same way.
I tested various approaches to resolving this, including approaches with
`saturating_mul` and `widening_mul` to a double usize. Turns out LLVM
likes `mul_with_overflow` the best. In fact now, that LLVM can see the
iteration count is limited, it will happily unroll the loop into a nice
linear sequence.
You will also notice that the code around the loop got simplified
somewhat. Now that LLVM is handling the loop nicely, there isn’t any
more reasons to manually unroll the first iteration out of the loop
(though looking at the code today I’m not sure all that complexity was
necessary in the first place).
Fixes #103361

Add a special case for align_offset /w stride != 1
This generalizes the previous `stride == 1` special case to apply to any
situation where the requested alignment is divisible by the stride. This
in turn allows the test case from #98809 produce ideal assembly, along
the lines of:
leaq 15(%rdi), %rax
andq $-16, %rax
This also produces pretty high quality code for situations where the
alignment of the input pointer isn’t known:
pub unsafe fn ptr_u32(slice: *const u32) -> *const u32 {
slice.offset(slice.align_offset(16) as isize)
}
// =>
movl %edi, %eax
andl $3, %eax
leaq 15(%rdi), %rcx
andq $-16, %rcx
subq %rdi, %rcx
shrq $2, %rcx
negq %rax
sbbq %rax, %rax
orq %rcx, %rax
leaq (%rdi,%rax,4), %rax
Here LLVM is smart enough to replace the `usize::MAX` special case with
a branch-less bitwise-OR approach, where the mask is constructed using
the neg and sbb instructions. This appears to work across various
architectures I’ve tried.
This change ends up introducing more branches and code in situations
where there is less knowledge of the arguments. For example when the
requested alignment is entirely unknown. This use-case was never really
a focus of this function, so I’m not particularly worried, especially
since llvm-mca is saying that the new code is still appreciably faster,
despite all the new branching.
Fixes #98809.
Sadly, this does not help with #72356.

ptr::copy and ptr::swap are doing untyped copies
The consensus in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63159 seemed to be that these operations should be "untyped", i.e., they should treat the data as raw bytes, should work when these bytes violate the validity invariant of `T`, and should exactly preserve the initialization state of the bytes that are being copied. This is already somewhat implied by the description of "copying/swapping size*N bytes" (rather than "N instances of `T`").
The implementations mostly already work that way (well, for LLVM's intrinsics the documentation is not precise enough to say what exactly happens to poison, but if this ever gets clarified to something that would *not* perfectly preserve poison, then I strongly assume there will be some way to make a copy that *does* perfectly preserve poison). However, I had to adjust `swap_nonoverlapping`; after ``@scottmcm's`` [recent changes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/94212), that one (sometimes) made a typed copy. (Note that `mem::swap`, which works on mutable references, is unchanged. It is documented as "swapping the values at two mutable locations", which to me strongly indicates that it is indeed typed. It is also safe and can rely on `&mut T` pointing to a valid `T` as part of its safety invariant.)
On top of adding a test (that will be run by Miri), this PR then also adjusts the documentation to indeed stably promise the untyped semantics. I assume this means the PR has to go through t-libs (and maybe t-lang?) FCP.

Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/93959
This change was accepted in https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2580-ptr-meta.html
Note that this changes the signature of **stable** functions.
The change should be backward-compatible, but it is **insta-stable**
since it cannot (easily, at all?) be made available only
through a `#![feature(…)]` opt-in.
The RFC also proposed the same change for `NonNull::dangling`,
which makes sense it terms of its signature but not in terms of its implementation.
`dangling` uses `align_of()` as an address. But what `align_of()` should be for
extern types or whether it should be allowed at all remains an open question.
This commit depends on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/93977, which is not yet
part of the bootstrap compiler. So `#[cfg]` is used to only apply the change in
stage 1+. As far a I know bounds cannot be made conditional with `#[cfg]`, so the
entire functions are duplicated. This is unfortunate but temporary.
Since this duplication makes it less obvious in the diff,
the new definitions differ in:
* More permissive bounds (`Thin` instead of implied `Sized`)
* Different implementation
* Having `rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable(ptr_metadata)`

Implement provenance preserving methods on NonNull
### Description
Add the `addr`, `with_addr`, `map_addr` methods to the `NonNull` type, and map the address type to `NonZeroUsize`.
### Motivation
The `NonNull` type is useful for implementing pointer types which have the 0-niche. It is currently possible to implement these provenance preserving functions by calling `NonNull::as_ptr` and `new_unchecked`. The adding these methods makes it more ergonomic.
### Testing
Added a unit test of a non-null tagged pointer type. This is based on some real code I have elsewhere, that currently routes the pointer through a `NonZeroUsize` and back out to produce a usable pointer. I wanted to produce an ideal version of the same tagged pointer struct that preserved pointer provenance.
### Related
Extension of APIs proposed in #95228 . I can also split this out into a separate tracking issue if that is better (though I may need some pointers on how to do that).

It is UB for LLVM and results in a compile error for Cranelift

This updates the standard library's documentation to use the new syntax. The
documentation is worthwhile to update as it should be more idiomatic
(particularly for features like this, which are nice for users to get acquainted
with). The general codebase is likely more hassle than benefit to update: it'll
hurt git blame, and generally updates can be done by folks updating the code if
(and when) that makes things more readable with the new format.
A few places in the compiler and library code are updated (mostly just due to
already having been done when this commit was first authored).
