2018-01-30rustc: Add an option to default hidden visibilityAlex Crichton-0/+3
This commit adds a new option to target specifictions to specify that symbols should be "hidden" visibility by default in LLVM. While there are no existing targets that take advantage of this the `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target will soon start to use this visibility. The LLD linker currently interprets `hidden` as "don't export this from the wasm module" which is what we want for 90% of our functions. While the LLD linker does have a "export this symbol" argument which is what we use for other linkers, it was also somewhat easier to do this change instead which'll involve less arguments flying around. Additionally there's no need for non-`hidden` visibility for most of our symbols! This change should not immediately impact the wasm targets as-is, but rather this is laying the foundations for soon integrating LLD as a linker for wasm code.
2018-01-05Let libpanic_abort call into libc's abort() on CloudABI.Ed Schouten-1/+1
Ideally, we should make use of CloudABI's internal proc_raise(SIGABRT) system call. POSIX abort() requires things like flushing of stdios, which may not be what we want under panic conditions. Invoking the raw CloudABI system call would have prevented that. Unfortunately, we have to make use of the "cloudabi" crate to invoke raw CloudABI system calls. This is undesired, as discussed in the pull request (#47190).
2017-11-19std: Add a new wasm32-unknown-unknown targetAlex Crichton-7/+8
This commit adds a new target to the compiler: wasm32-unknown-unknown. This target is a reimagining of what it looks like to generate WebAssembly code from Rust. Instead of using Emscripten which can bring with it a weighty runtime this instead is a target which uses only the LLVM backend for WebAssembly and a "custom linker" for now which will hopefully one day be direct calls to lld. Notable features of this target include: * There is zero runtime footprint. The target assumes nothing exists other than the wasm32 instruction set. * There is zero toolchain footprint beyond adding the target. No custom linker is needed, rustc contains everything. * Very small wasm modules can be generated directly from Rust code using this target. * Most of the standard library is stubbed out to return an error, but anything related to allocation works (aka `HashMap`, `Vec`, etc). * Naturally, any `#[no_std]` crate should be 100% compatible with this new target. This target is currently somewhat janky due to how linking works. The "linking" is currently unconditional whole program LTO (aka LLVM is being used as a linker). Naturally that means compiling programs is pretty slow! Eventually though this target should have a linker. This target is also intended to be quite experimental. I'm hoping that this can act as a catalyst for further experimentation in Rust with WebAssembly. Breaking changes are very likely to land to this target, so it's not recommended to rely on it in any critical capacity yet. We'll let you know when it's "production ready". --- Currently testing-wise this target is looking pretty good but isn't complete. I've got almost the entire `run-pass` test suite working with this target (lots of tests ignored, but many passing as well). The `core` test suite is still getting LLVM bugs fixed to get that working and will take some time. Relatively simple programs all seem to work though! --- It's worth nothing that you may not immediately see the "smallest possible wasm module" for the input you feed to rustc. For various reasons it's very difficult to get rid of the final "bloat" in vanilla rustc (again, a real linker should fix all this). For now what you'll have to do is: cargo install --git https://github.com/alexcrichton/wasm-gc wasm-gc foo.wasm bar.wasm And then `bar.wasm` should be the smallest we can get it! --- In any case for now I'd love feedback on this, particularly on the various integration points if you've got better ideas of how to approach them!
2017-08-25*: remove crate_{name,type} attributesTamir Duberstein-2/+0
Fixes #41701.
2017-01-08Auto merge of #38679 - alexcrichton:always-deny-warnings, r=nrcbors-1/+1
Remove not(stage0) from deny(warnings) Historically this was done to accommodate bugs in lints, but there hasn't been a bug in a lint since this feature was added which the warnings affected. Let's completely purge warnings from all our stages by denying warnings in all stages. This will also assist in tracking down `stage0` code to be removed whenever we're updating the bootstrap compiler.

This commit prepares the source for a new stage0 compiler, the 1.10.0 beta compiler. These artifacts are hot off the bots and should be ready to go.
2016-05-12rustbuild: Add support for crate tests + doctestsAlex Crichton-0/+1
This commit adds support to rustbuild to run crate unit tests (those defined by `#[test]`) as well as documentation tests. All tests are powered by `cargo test` under the hood. Each step requires the `libtest` library is built for that corresponding stage. Ideally the `test` crate would be a dev-dependency, but for now it's just easier to ensure that we sequence everything in the right order. Currently no filtering is implemented, so there's not actually a method of testing *only* libstd or *only* libcore, but rather entire swaths of crates are tested all at once. A few points of note here are: * The `coretest` and `collectionstest` crates are just listed as `[[test]]` entires for `cargo test` to naturally pick up. This mean that `cargo test -p core` actually runs all the tests for libcore. * Libraries that aren't tested all mention `test = false` in their `Cargo.toml` * Crates aren't currently allowed to have dev-dependencies due to rust-lang/cargo#860, but we can likely alleviate this restriction once workspaces are implemented. cc #31590
2016-05-09rustc: Use C++ personalities on MSVCAlex Crichton-13/+36
Currently the compiler has two relatively critical bugs in the implementation of MSVC unwinding: * #33112 - faults like segfaults and illegal instructions will run destructors in Rust, meaning we keep running code after a super-fatal exception has happened. * #33116 - When compiling with LTO plus `-Z no-landing-pads` (or `-C panic=abort` with the previous commit) LLVM won't remove all `invoke` instructions, meaning that some landing pads stick around and cleanups may be run due to the previous bug. These both stem from the flavor of "personality function" that Rust uses for unwinding on MSVC. On 32-bit this is `_except_handler3` and on 64-bit this is `__C_specific_handler`, but they both essentially are the "most generic" personality functions for catching exceptions and running cleanups. That is, thse two personalities will run cleanups for all exceptions unconditionally, so when we use them we run cleanups for **all SEH exceptions** (include things like segfaults). Note that this also explains why LLVM won't optimize away `invoke` instructions. These functions can legitimately still unwind (the `nounwind` attribute only seems to apply to "C++ exception-like unwining"). Also note that the standard library only *catches* Rust exceptions, not others like segfaults and illegal instructions. LLVM has support for another personality, `__CxxFrameHandler3`, which does not run cleanups for general exceptions, only C++ exceptions thrown by `_CxxThrowException`. This essentially ideally matches our use case, so this commit moves us over to using this well-known personality function as well as exception-throwing function. This doesn't *seem* to pull in any extra runtime dependencies just yet, but if it does we can perhaps try to work out how to implement more of it in Rust rather than relying on MSVCRT runtime bits. More details about how this is actually implemented can be found in the changes itself, but this... Closes #33112 Closes #33116
2016-05-09rustc: Implement custom panic runtimesAlex Crichton-0/+123
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1513] which allows applications to alter the behavior of panics at compile time. A new compiler flag, `-C panic`, is added and accepts the values `unwind` or `panic`, with the default being `unwind`. This model affects how code is generated for the local crate, skipping generation of landing pads with `-C panic=abort`. [RFC 1513]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1513-less-unwinding.md Panic implementations are then provided by crates tagged with `#![panic_runtime]` and lazily required by crates with `#![needs_panic_runtime]`. The panic strategy (`-C panic` value) of the panic runtime must match the final product, and if the panic strategy is not `abort` then the entire DAG must have the same panic strategy. With the `-C panic=abort` strategy, users can expect a stable method to disable generation of landing pads, improving optimization in niche scenarios, decreasing compile time, and decreasing output binary size. With the `-C panic=unwind` strategy users can expect the existing ability to isolate failure in Rust code from the outside world. Organizationally, this commit dismantles the `sys_common::unwind` module in favor of some bits moving part of it to `libpanic_unwind` and the rest into the `panicking` module in libstd. The custom panic runtime support is pretty similar to the custom allocator support with the only major difference being how the panic runtime is injected (takes the `-C panic` flag into account).
