2021-08-03rustc: Fill out remaining parts of C-unwind ABIAlex Crichton-2/+3
This commit intends to fill out some of the remaining pieces of the C-unwind ABI. This has a number of other changes with it though to move this design space forward a bit. Notably contained within here is: * On `panic=unwind`, the `extern "C"` ABI is now considered as "may unwind". This fixes a longstanding soundness issue where if you `panic!()` in an `extern "C"` function defined in Rust that's actually UB because the LLVM representation for the function has the `nounwind` attribute, but then you unwind. * Whether or not a function unwinds now mainly considers the ABI of the function instead of first checking the panic strategy. This fixes a miscompile of `extern "C-unwind"` with `panic=abort` because that ABI can still unwind. * The aborting stub for non-unwinding ABIs with `panic=unwind` has been reimplemented. Previously this was done as a small tweak during MIR generation, but this has been moved to a separate and dedicated MIR pass. This new pass will, for appropriate functions and function calls, insert a `cleanup` landing pad for any function call that may unwind within a function that is itself not allowed to unwind. Note that this subtly changes some behavior from before where previously on an unwind which was caught-to-abort it would run active destructors in the function, and now it simply immediately aborts the process. * The `#[unwind]` attribute has been removed and all users in tests and such are now using `C-unwind` and `#![feature(c_unwind)]`. I think this is largely the last piece of the RFC to implement. Unfortunately I believe this is still not stabilizable as-is because activating the feature gate changes the behavior of the existing `extern "C"` ABI in a way that has no replacement. My thinking for how to enable this is that we add support for the `C-unwind` ABI on stable Rust first, and then after it hits stable we change the behavior of the `C` ABI. That way anyone straddling stable/beta/nightly can switch to `C-unwind` safely.
2021-07-28Make const panic!("..") work in Rust 2021.Mara Bos-0/+1
During const eval, this replaces calls to core::panicking::panic_fmt and std::panicking::being_panic_fmt with a call to a new const fn: core::panicking::const_panic_fmt. That function uses fmt::Arguments::as_str() to get the str and calls panic_str with that instead. panic!() invocations with formatting arguments are still not accepted, as the creation of such a fmt::Arguments cannot be done in constant functions right now.

Multiple improvements to RwLocks This PR replicates #77147, #77380 and #84650 on RWLocks : - Split `sys_common::RWLock` in `StaticRWLock` and `MovableRWLock` - Unbox rwlocks on some platforms (Windows, Wasm and unsupported) - Simplify `RwLock::into_inner` Notes to reviewers : - For each target, I copied `MovableMutex` to guess if `MovableRWLock` should be boxed. - ~A comment says that `StaticMutex` is not re-entrant, I don't understand why and I don't know whether it applies to `StaticRWLock`.~ r? `@m-ou-se`
2021-06-06Default panic message should print Box<dyn Any>Reagan McFarland-1/+1
Prior to this patch, the default panic message (resulting from calling `panic_any(42);` for example), would print the following error message: ``` thread 'main' panicked at 'Box<Any>', ... ``` However, this should be `Box<dyn Any>` instead.

2021-05-07std panicking: Provide panic::always_abortIan Jackson-15/+49
We must change the atomic read on panic entry to `Acquire`, to pick up a possible an `always_panic` on another thread. We add `count` to the names of panic_count::get and ::is_zaero, because now there is another reason why panic ought to maybe abort. Renaming these ensures that we have checked every call site to ensure that they don't need further adjustment.

2020-11-10Use Vec<u8> for LOCAL_STD{OUT,ERR} instead of dyn Write.Mara Bos-22/+1
It was only ever used with Vec<u8> anyway. This simplifies some things. - It no longer needs to be flushed, because that's a no-op anyway for a Vec<u8>. - Writing to a Vec<u8> never fails. - No #[cfg(test)] code is needed anymore to use `realstd` instead of `std`, because Vec comes from alloc, not std (like Write).

2020-07-28std: Switch from libbacktrace to gimliAlex Crichton-1/+1
This commit is a proof-of-concept for switching the standard library's backtrace symbolication mechanism on most platforms from libbacktrace to gimli. The standard library's support for `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` requires in-process parsing of object files and DWARF debug information to interpret it and print the filename/line number of stack frames as part of a backtrace. Historically this support in the standard library has come from a library called "libbacktrace". The libbacktrace library seems to have been extracted from gcc at some point and is written in C. We've had a lot of issues with libbacktrace over time, unfortunately, though. The library does not appear to be actively maintained since we've had patches sit for months-to-years without comments. We have discovered a good number of soundness issues with the library itself, both when parsing valid DWARF as well as invalid DWARF. This is enough of an issue that the libs team has previously decided that we cannot feed untrusted inputs to libbacktrace. This also doesn't take into account the portability of libbacktrace which has been difficult to manage and maintain over time. While possible there are lots of exceptions and it's the main C dependency of the standard library right now. For years it's been the desire to switch over to a Rust-based solution for symbolicating backtraces. It's been assumed that we'll be using the Gimli family of crates for this purpose, which are targeted at safely and efficiently parsing DWARF debug information. I've been working recently to shore up the Gimli support in the `backtrace` crate. As of a few weeks ago the `backtrace` crate, by default, uses Gimli when loaded from crates.io. This transition has gone well enough that I figured it was time to start talking seriously about this change to the standard library. This commit is a preview of what's probably the best way to integrate the `backtrace` crate into the standard library with the Gimli feature turned on. While today it's used as a crates.io dependency, this commit switches the `backtrace` crate to a submodule of this repository which will need to be updated manually. This is not done lightly, but is thought to be the best solution. The primary reason for this is that the `backtrace` crate needs to do some pretty nontrivial filesystem interactions to locate debug information. Working without `std::fs` is not an option, and while it might be possible to do some sort of trait-based solution when prototyped it was found to be too unergonomic. Using a submodule allows the `backtrace` crate to build as a submodule of the `std` crate itself, enabling it to use `std::fs` and such. Otherwise this adds new dependencies to the standard library. This step requires extra attention because this means that these crates are now going to be included with all Rust programs by default. It's important to note, however, that we're already shipping libbacktrace with all Rust programs by default and it has a bunch of C code implementing all of this internally anyway, so we're basically already switching already-shipping functionality to Rust from C. * `object` - this crate is used to parse object file headers and contents. Very low-level support is used from this crate and almost all of it is disabled. Largely we're just using struct definitions as well as convenience methods internally to read bytes and such. * `addr2line` - this is the main meat of the implementation for symbolication. This crate depends on `gimli` for DWARF parsing and then provides interfaces needed by the `backtrace` crate to turn an address into a filename / line number. This crate is actually pretty small (fits in a single file almost!) and mirrors most of what `dwarf.c` does for libbacktrace. * `miniz_oxide` - the libbacktrace crate transparently handles compressed debug information which is compressed with zlib. This crate is used to decompress compressed debug sections. * `gimli` - not actually used directly, but a dependency of `addr2line`. * `adler32`- not used directly either, but a dependency of `miniz_oxide`. The goal of this change is to improve the safety of backtrace symbolication in the standard library, especially in the face of possibly malformed DWARF debug information. Even to this day we're still seeing segfaults in libbacktrace which could possibly become security vulnerabilities. This change should almost entirely eliminate this possibility whilc also paving the way forward to adding more features like split debug information. Some references for those interested are: * Original addition of libbacktrace - #12602 * OOM with libbacktrace - #24231 * Backtrace failure due to use of uninitialized value - #28447 * Possibility to feed untrusted data to libbacktrace - #21889 * Soundness fix for libbacktrace - #33729 * Crash in libbacktrace - #39468 * Support for macOS, never merged - ianlancetaylor/libbacktrace#2 * Performance issues with libbacktrace - #29293, #37477 * Update procedure is quite complicated due to how many patches we need to carry - #50955 * Libbacktrace doesn't work on MinGW with dynamic libs - #71060 * Segfault in libbacktrace on macOS - #71397 Switching to Rust will not make us immune to all of these issues. The crashes are expected to go away, but correctness and performance may still have bugs arise. The gimli and `backtrace` crates, however, are actively maintained unlike libbacktrace, so this should enable us to at least efficiently apply fixes as situations come up.
