2016-05-31mk: Prepare for a new stage0 compilerAlex Crichton-3/+2
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).
