This is all purely fallout of getting the previous commit to compile.

This is the final nail in the coffin for the crate map. The `start` function for
libgreen now has a new added parameter which is the event loop factory instead
of inferring it from the crate map. The two current valid values for this
parameter are `green::basic::event_loop` and `rustuv::event_loop`.

This commit moves all logging out of the standard library into an external
crate. This crate is the new crate which is responsible for all logging macros
and logging implementation. A few reasons for this change are:
* The crate map has always been a bit of a code smell among rust programs. It
has difficulty being loaded on almost all platforms, and it's used almost
exclusively for logging and only logging. Removing the crate map is one of the
end goals of this movement.
* The compiler has a fair bit of special support for logging. It has the
__log_level() expression as well as generating a global word per module
specifying the log level. This is unfairly favoring the built-in logging
system, and is much better done purely in libraries instead of the compiler
itself.
* Initialization of logging is much easier to do if there is no reliance on a
magical crate map being available to set module log levels.
* If the logging library can be written outside of the standard library, there's
no reason that it shouldn't be. It's likely that we're not going to build the
highest quality logging library of all time, so third-party libraries should
be able to provide just as high-quality logging systems as the default one
provided in the rust distribution.
With a migration such as this, the change does not come for free. There are some
subtle changes in the behavior of liblog vs the previous logging macros:
* The core change of this migration is that there is no longer a physical
log-level per module. This concept is still emulated (it is quite useful), but
there is now only a global log level, not a local one. This global log level
is a reflection of the maximum of all log levels specified. The previously
generated logging code looked like:
if specified_level <= __module_log_level() {
println!(...)
}
The newly generated code looks like:
if specified_level <= ::log::LOG_LEVEL {
if ::log::module_enabled(module_path!()) {
println!(...)
}
}
Notably, the first layer of checking is still intended to be "super fast" in
that it's just a load of a global word and a compare. The second layer of
checking is executed to determine if the current module does indeed have
logging turned on.
This means that if any module has a debug log level turned on, all modules
with debug log levels get a little bit slower (they all do more expensive
dynamic checks to determine if they're turned on or not).
Semantically, this migration brings no change in this respect, but
runtime-wise, this will have a perf impact on some code.
* A `RUST_LOG=::help` directive will no longer print out a list of all modules
that can be logged. This is because the crate map will no longer specify the
log levels of all modules, so the list of modules is not known. Additionally,
warnings can no longer be provided if a malformed logging directive was
supplied.
The new "hello world" for logging looks like:
#[phase(syntax, link)]
extern crate log;
fn main() {
debug!("Hello, world!");
}

This is mostly just an implementation detail, and anyone worried about the stack
bounds doesn't need to be bothered with the red zone because it's not usable
anyway.

- Added `TraitObject` representation to `std::raw`.
- Added doc to `std::raw`.
- Removed `Any::as_void_ptr()` and `Any::as_mut_void_ptr()`
methods as they are uneccessary now after the removal of
headers on owned boxes. This reduces the number of virtual calls needed.
- Made the `..Ext` implementations work directly with the repr of
a trait object.
- Removed `Any`-related traits from the prelude.
- Added bench for `Any`

These can all be written in a more controlled manner than with the
transmute hammer, leading to (hopefully) safer code.

Issue #1457
|
|
Delete all the documentation from std::task that references linked
failure.
Tweak TaskBuilder to be more builder-like. .name() is now .named() and
.add_wrapper() is now .with_wrapper(). Remove .watched() and
.unwatched() as they didn't actually do anything.
|
|
|
|
This better reflects its purpose and design.
|
|
This automatically unlocks its lock when it goes out of scope, and
provides a safe(ish) method to call .wait.

Two unfortunate allocations were wrapping a proc() in a proc() with
GreenTask::build_start_wrapper, and then boxing this proc in a ~proc() inside of
Context::new(). Both of these allocations were a direct result from two
conditions:
1. The Context::new() function has a nice api of taking a procedure argument to
start up a new context with. This inherently required an allocation by
build_start_wrapper because extra code needed to be run around the edges of a
user-provided proc() for a new task.
2. The initial bootstrap code only understood how to pass one argument to the
next function. By modifying the assembly and entry points to understand more
than one argument, more information is passed through in registers instead of
allocating a pointer-sized context.
This is sadly where I end up throwing mips under a bus because I have no idea
what's going on in the mips context switching code and don't know how to modify
it.
Closes #7767

Instead, use an enum to allow running both a procedure and sending the task
result over a channel. I expect the common case to be sending on a channel (e.g.
task::try), so don't require an extra allocation in the common case.

Declare a `type SendStr = MaybeOwned<'static>` to ease readibility of
types that needed the old SendStr behavior.
Implement all the traits for MaybeOwned that SendStr used to implement.

Now that extra::sync primitives are built on a proper mutex instead of a
pthreads one, there's no longer any use for this function.

`Times::times` was always a second-class loop because it did not support the `break` and `continue` operations. Its playful appeal was then lost after `do` was disabled for closures. It's time to let this one go.

We just approximate with a 2MB stack for native::start.

This will allow capturing of common things like logging messages, stdout prints
(using stdio println), and failure messages (printed to stderr). Any new prints
added to libstd should be funneled through these task handles to allow capture
as well.
Additionally, this commit redirects logging back through a `Logger` trait so the
log level can be usefully consumed by an arbitrary logger.
This commit also introduces methods to set the task-local stdout handles:
* std::io::stdio::set_stdout
* std::io::stdio::set_stderr
* std::io::logging::set_logger
These methods all return the previous logger just in case it needs to be used
for inspection.
I plan on using this infrastructure for extra::test soon, but we don't quite
have the primitives that I'd like to use for it, so it doesn't migrate
extra::test at this time.

This allows inspection of the current task's bounds regardless of what the
underlying task is.

For libgreen, bookeeping should not be global but rather on a per-pool basis.
Inside libnative, it's known that there must be a global counter with a
mutex/cvar.
The benefit of taking this strategy is to remove this functionality from libstd
to allow fine-grained control of it through libnative/libgreen. Notably, helper
threads in libnative can manually decrement the global count so they don't count
towards the global count of threads. Also, the shutdown process of *all* sched
pools is now dependent on the number of tasks in the pool being 0 rather than
this only being a hardcoded solution for the initial sched pool in libgreen.
This involved adding a Local::try_take() method on the Local trait in order for
the channel wakeup to work inside of libgreen. The channel send was happening
from a SchedTask when there is no Task available in TLS, and now this is
possible to work (remote wakeups are always possible, just a little slower).

These functions are all unnecessary now, and they only have meaning in the M:N
context. Removing these functions uncovered a bug in the librustuv timer
bindings, but it was fairly easy to cover (and the test is already committed).
These cannot be completely removed just yet due to their usage in the WaitQueue
of extra::sync, and until the mutex in libextra is rewritten it will not be
possible to remove the deferred sends for channels.

Use the previous commit's new scheduler pool abstraction in libgreen to write
some homing tests which force an I/O handle to be homed from one event loop to
another.
|
|
The scheduler pool now has a much more simplified interface. There is now a
clear distinction between creating the pool and then interacting the pool. When
a pool is created, all schedulers are not active, and only later if a spawn is
done does activity occur.
There are four operations that you can do on a pool:
1. Create a new pool. The only argument to this function is the configuration
for the scheduler pool. Currently the only configuration parameter is the
number of threads to initially spawn.
2. Spawn a task into this pool. This takes a procedure and task configuration
options and spawns a new task into the pool of schedulers.
3. Spawn a new scheduler into the pool. This will return a handle on which to
communicate with the scheduler in order to do something like a pinned task.
4. Shut down the scheduler pool. This will consume the scheduler pool, request
all of the schedulers to shut down, and then wait on all the scheduler
threads. Currently this will block the invoking OS thread, but I plan on
making 'Thread::join' not a thread-blocking call.
These operations can be used to encode all current usage of M:N schedulers, as
well as providing a simple interface through which a pool can be modified. There
is currently no way to remove a scheduler from a pool of scheduler, as there's
no way to guarantee that a scheduler has exited. This may be added in the
future, however (as necessary).

This extracts everything related to green scheduling from libstd and introduces
a new libgreen crate. This mostly involves deleting most of std::rt and moving
it to libgreen.
Along with the movement of code, this commit rearchitects many functions in the
scheduler in order to adapt to the fact that Local::take now *only* works on a
Task, not a scheduler. This mostly just involved threading the current green
task through in a few locations, but there were one or two spots where things
got hairy.
There are a few repercussions of this commit:
* tube/rc have been removed (the runtime implementation of rc)
* There is no longer a "single threaded" spawning mode for tasks. This is now
encompassed by 1:1 scheduling + communication. Convenience methods have been
introduced that are specific to libgreen to assist in the spawning of pools of
schedulers.
