2014-10-01auto merge of #17653 : kaini/rust/master, r=alexcrichtonbors-1/+1
Fixes that unit-like structs cannot be used if they are re-exported and used in another crate. (ICE) The relevant changes are in `rustc::metadata::{decoder, encoder}` and `rustc::middle::ty`. A test case is included. The problem is that the expressoin `UnitStruct` is an `ExprPath` to an `DefFn`, which is of expr kind `RvalueDatumExpr`, but for unit-struct ctors the expr kind should be `RvalueDpsExpr`. I fixed this (in a I guess clean way) by introducing `CtorFn` in the metadata and including a `is_ctor` flag in `DefFn`.
2014-09-30Fixes ICE when using reexported unit-like structsMichael Kainer-1/+1
Fixes that unit-like structs cannot be used if they are reexported and used in another crate. The compiler fails with an ICE, because unit-like structs are exported as DefFn and the expression `UnitStruct` is interpreted as function pointer instead of a call to the constructor. To resolve this ambiguity tuple-like struct constructors are now exported as CtorFn. When `rustc::metadata::decoder` finds a CtorFn it sets a new flag `is_ctor` in DefFn to true. Relevant changes are in `rustc::metadata::{encoder, decoder}` and in `rustc::middle::ty`. Closes #12660 and #16973.

2014-09-05reuse original symbols for inlined itemsStuart Pernsteiner-4/+5
When inlining an item from another crate, use the original symbol from that crate's metadata instead of generating a new symbol using the `ast::NodeId` of the inlined copy. This requires exporting symbols in the crate metadata in a few additional cases. Having predictable symbols for inlined items will be useful later to avoid generating duplicate object code for inlined items.

2014-08-25rustc: Encode the visibility of foreign itemsAlex Crichton-0/+1
The privacy pass of the compiler was previously not taking into account the privacy of foreign items, or bindings to external functions. This commit fixes this oversight by encoding the visibility of foreign items into the metadata for each crate. Any code relying on this will start to fail to compile and the bindings must be marked with `pub` to indicate that they can be used externally. Closes #16725 [breaking-change]
2014-08-16librustc: Forbid external crates, imports, and/or items from beingPatrick Walton-1/+0
declared with the same name in the same scope. This breaks several common patterns. First are unused imports: use foo::bar; use baz::bar; Change this code to the following: use baz::bar; Second, this patch breaks globs that import names that are shadowed by subsequent imports. For example: use foo::*; // including `bar` use baz::bar; Change this code to remove the glob: use foo::{boo, quux}; use baz::bar; Or qualify all uses of `bar`: use foo::{boo, quux}; use baz; ... baz::bar ... Finally, this patch breaks code that, at top level, explicitly imports `std` and doesn't disable the prelude. extern crate std; Because the prelude imports `std` implicitly, there is no need to explicitly import it; just remove such directives. The old behavior can be opted into via the `import_shadowing` feature gate. Use of this feature gate is discouraged. This implements RFC #116. Closes #16464. [breaking-change]
2014-08-14librustc: Stop assuming that implementations and traits only containPatrick Walton-94/+171
methods. This paves the way to associated items by introducing an extra level of abstraction ("impl-or-trait item") between traits/implementations and methods. This new abstraction is encoded in the metadata and used throughout the compiler where appropriate. There are no functional changes; this is purely a refactoring.
2014-08-14librustc: Tie up loose ends in unboxed closures.Patrick Walton-3/+18
This patch primarily does two things: (1) it prevents lifetimes from leaking out of unboxed closures; (2) it allows unboxed closure type notation, call notation, and construction notation to construct closures matching any of the three traits. This breaks code that looked like: let mut f; { let x = &5i; f = |&mut:| *x + 10; } Change this code to avoid having a reference escape. For example: { let x = &5i; let mut f; // <-- move here to avoid dangling reference f = |&mut:| *x + 10; } I believe this is enough to consider unboxed closures essentially implemented. Further issues (for example, higher-rank lifetimes) should be filed as followups. Closes #14449. [breaking-change]
2014-08-05Allow generic foreign functions.Russell-1/+2
Generic extern functions written in Rust have their names mangled, as well as their internal clownshoe __rust_abi functions. This allows e.g. specific monomorphizations of these functions to be used as callbacks. Closes #12502.

2014-07-31Move SeekableMemWriter into librbmlErick Tryzelaar-1/+1
2014-07-31remove serialize::ebml, add librbmlErick Tryzelaar-611/+611
Our implementation of ebml has diverged from the standard in order to better serve the needs of the compiler, so it doesn't make much sense to call what we have ebml anyore. Furthermore, our implementation is pretty crufty, and should eventually be rewritten into a format that better suits the needs of the compiler. This patch factors out serialize::ebml into librbml, otherwise known as the Really Bad Markup Language. This is a stopgap library that shouldn't be used by end users, and will eventually be replaced by something better. [breaking-change]
2014-07-29remove seek from std::io::MemWriter, add SeekableMemWriter to librustcErick Tryzelaar-12/+12
Not all users of MemWriter need to seek, but having MemWriter seekable adds between 3-29% in overhead in certain circumstances. This fixes that performance gap by making a non-seekable MemWriter, and creating a new SeekableMemWriter for those circumstances when that functionality is actually needed. ``` test io::mem::test::bench_buf_reader ... bench: 682 ns/iter (+/- 85) test io::mem::test::bench_buf_writer ... bench: 580 ns/iter (+/- 57) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_reader ... bench: 793 ns/iter (+/- 99) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_0000 ... bench: 48 ns/iter (+/- 27) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_0010 ... bench: 65 ns/iter (+/- 27) = 153 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_0100 ... bench: 132 ns/iter (+/- 12) = 757 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_1000 ... bench: 802 ns/iter (+/- 151) = 1246 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_0000 ... bench: 481 ns/iter (+/- 28) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_0010 ... bench: 1957 ns/iter (+/- 126) = 510 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_0100 ... bench: 8222 ns/iter (+/- 434) = 1216 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_1000 ... bench: 82496 ns/iter (+/- 11191) = 1212 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_0000 ... bench: 48 ns/iter (+/- 2) test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_0010 ... bench: 64 ns/iter (+/- 2) = 156 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_0100 ... bench: 129 ns/iter (+/- 7) = 775 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_1000 ... bench: 801 ns/iter (+/- 159) = 1248 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_0000 ... bench: 711 ns/iter (+/- 51) test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_0010 ... bench: 2532 ns/iter (+/- 227) = 394 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_0100 ... bench: 8962 ns/iter (+/- 947) = 1115 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_1000 ... bench: 85086 ns/iter (+/- 11555) = 1175 MB/s ``` [breaking-change]

2014-07-28rustdoc: show struct field docs when inlinedCorey Richardson-0/+25
Some minor changes to the compiler to expose this information. Very inconvenient since struct fields aren't an item. Adds (yet another) table to metadata. Closes #15739
2014-07-21repair macro docsJohn Clements-2/+2
In f1ad425199b0d89dab275a8c8f6f29a73d316f70, I changed the handling of macros, to prevent macro invocations from occurring in fully expanded source. Instead, I added a side table. It contained only the spans of the macros, because this was the only information required in order to make macro export work. However, librustdoc was also affected by this change, since it extracts macro information in a similar way. As a result of the earlier change, exported macros were no longer documented. In order to repair this, I've adjusted the side table to contain whole items, rather than just the spans.

2014-07-17librustc: Remove cross-borrowing of `Box<T>` to `&T` from the language,Patrick Walton-1/+1
except where trait objects are involved. Part of issue #15349, though I'm leaving it open for trait objects. Cross borrowing for trait objects remains because it is needed until we have DST. This will break code like: fn foo(x: &int) { ... } let a = box 3i; foo(a); Change this code to: fn foo(x: &int) { ... } let a = box 3i; foo(&*a); [breaking-change]
2014-07-16librustc: Implement the fully-expanded, UFCS form of explicit self.Patrick Walton-12/+19
This makes two changes to region inference: (1) it allows region inference to relate early-bound regions; and (2) it allows regions to be related before variance runs. The former is needed because there is no relation between the two regions before region substitution happens, while the latter is needed because type collection has to run before variance. We assume that, before variance is inferred, that lifetimes are invariant. This is a conservative overapproximation. This relates to #13885. This does not remove `~self` from the language yet, however. [breaking-change]

2014-07-13refactor Method definition to make space for macrosJohn Clements-2/+2
This change propagates to many locations, but because of the Macro Exterminator (or, more properly, the invariant that it protects), macro invocations can't occur downstream of expansion. This means that in librustc and librustdoc, extracting the desired field can simply assume that it can't be a macro invocation. Functions in ast_util abstract over this check.
2014-07-12auto merge of #15601 : jbclements/rust/disable-default-macro-behavior, ↵bors-28/+16
r=alexcrichton Our AST definition can include macro invocations, which can expand into all kinds of things. Macro invocations are expanded away during expansion time, and the rest of the compiler doesn't have to deal with them. However, we have no way of enforcing this. This patch adds two protective mechanisms. First, it adds a (quick) explicit check that ensures there are no macro invocations remaining in the AST after expansion. Second, it updates the visit and fold mechanisms so that by default, they will not traverse macro invocations. It's easy enough to add this, if desired (it's documented in the source, and examples appear, e.g. in the IdentFinder. Along the way, I also consulted with @sfackler to refactor the macro export mechanism so that it stores macro text spans in a side table, rather than leaving them in the AST.
2014-07-11use side table to store exported macrosJohn Clements-28/+16
Per discussion with @sfackler, refactored the expander to change the way that exported macros are collected. Specifically, a crate now contains a side table of spans that exported macros go into. This has two benefits. First, the encoder doesn't need to scan through the expanded crate in order to discover exported macros. Second, the expander can drop all expanded macros from the crate, with the pleasant result that a fully expanded crate contains no macro invocations (which include macro definitions).

2014-07-08carry self ident forward through re-parsingJohn Clements-4/+4
formerly, the self identifier was being discarded during parsing, which stymies hygiene. The best fix here seems to be to attach a self identifier to ExplicitSelf_, a change that rippled through the rest of the compiler, but without any obvious damage.
2014-07-08auto merge of #15493 : brson/rust/tostr, r=pcwaltonbors-26/+26
This updates https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/15075. Rename `ToStr::to_str` to `ToString::to_string`. The naive renaming ends up with two `to_string` functions defined on strings in the prelude (the other defined via `collections::str::StrAllocating`). To remedy this I removed `StrAllocating::to_string`, making all conversions from `&str` to `String` go through `Show`. This has a measurable impact on the speed of this conversion, but the sense I get from others is that it's best to go ahead and unify `to_string` and address performance for all `to_string` conversions in `core::fmt`. `String::from_str(...)` still works as a manual fast-path. Note that the patch was done with a script, and ended up renaming a number of other `*_to_str` functions, particularly inside of rustc. All the ones I saw looked correct, and I didn't notice any additional API breakage. Closes #15046.

2014-07-05rustc: Remove CrateId and all related supportAlex Crichton-42/+10
This commit removes all support in the compiler for the #[crate_id] attribute and all of its derivative infrastructure. A list of the functionality removed is: * The #[crate_id] attribute no longer exists * There is no longer the concept of a version of a crate * Version numbers are no longer appended to symbol names * The --crate-id command line option has been removed To migrate forward, rename #[crate_id] to #[crate_name] and only the name of the crate itself should be mentioned. The version/path of the old crate id should be removed. For a transitionary state, the #[crate_id] attribute is still accepted if the #[crate_name] is not present, but it is warned about if it is the only identifier present. RFC: 0035-remove-crate-id [breaking-change]
2014-07-03Simplify PatIdent to contain an Ident rather than a PathJohn Clements-4/+4
Rationale: for what appear to be historical reasons only, the PatIdent contains a Path rather than an Ident. This means that there are many places in the code where an ident is artificially promoted to a path, and---much more problematically--- a bunch of elements from a path are simply thrown away, which seems like an invitation to some really nasty bugs. This commit replaces the Path in a PatIdent with a SpannedIdent, which just contains an ident and a span.
2014-06-30rustdoc: incorporate stability index throughoutAaron Turon-7/+11
This commit hooks rustdoc into the stability index infrastructure in two ways: 1. It looks up stability levels via the index, rather than by manual attributes. 2. It adds stability level information throughout rustdoc output, rather than just at the top header. In particular, a stability color (with mouseover text) appears next to essentially every item that appears in rustdoc's HTML output. Along the way, the stability index code has been lightly refactored.

2014-06-18Add stability inheritanceAaron Turon-1/+31
This commit makes several changes to the stability index infrastructure: * Stability levels are now inherited lexically, i.e., each item's stability level becomes the default for any nested items. * The computed stability level for an item is stored as part of the metadata. When using an item from an external crate, this data is looked up and cached. * The stability lint works from the computed stability level, rather than manual stability attribute annotations. However, the lint still checks only a limited set of item uses (e.g., it does not check every component of a path on import). This will be addressed in a later PR, as part of issue #8962. * The stability lint only applies to items originating from external crates, since the stability index is intended as a promise to downstream crates. * The "experimental" lint is now _allow_ by default. This is because almost all existing crates have been marked "experimental", pending library stabilization. With inheritance in place, this would generate a massive explosion of warnings for every Rust program. The lint should be changed back to deny-by-default after library stabilization is complete. * The "deprecated" lint still warns by default. The net result: we can begin tracking stability index for the standard libraries as we stabilize, without impacting most clients. Closes #13540.

parameters This involves numerous substeps: 1. Treat Self same as any other parameter. 2. No longer compute offsets for method parameters. 3. Store all generic types (both trait/impl and method) with a method, eliminating odd discrepancies. 4. Stop doing unspeakable things to static methods and instead just use the natural types, now that we can easily add the type parameters from trait into the method's polytype. 5. No doubt some more. It was hard to separate these into distinct commits. Fixes #13564
