This commit is the standard API stabilization commit for the 1.6 release cycle.
The list of issues and APIs below have all been through their cycle-long FCP and
the libs team decisions are listed below
Stabilized APIs
* `Read::read_exact`
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof` (renamed from `UnexpectedEOF`)
* libcore -- this was a bit of a nuanced stabilization, the crate itself is now
marked as `#[stable]` and the methods appearing via traits for primitives like
`char` and `str` are now also marked as stable. Note that the extension traits
themeselves are marked as unstable as they're imported via the prelude. The
`try!` macro was also moved from the standard library into libcore to have the
same interface. Otherwise the functions all have copied stability from the
standard library now.

Also fixes a few outdated links.

Turns out for OSX our data layout was subtly wrong and the LLVM update must have
exposed this. Instead of fixing this I've removed all data layouts from the
compiler to just use the defaults that LLVM provides for all targets. All data
layouts (and a number of dead modules) are removed from the compiler here.
Custom target specifications can still provide a custom data layout, but it is
now an optional key as the default will be used if one isn't specified.
|

We have previously always relied upon an external tool, `ar`, to modify archives
that the compiler produces (staticlibs, rlibs, etc). This approach, however, has
a number of downsides:
* Spawning a process is relatively expensive for small compilations
* Encoding arguments across process boundaries often incurs unnecessary overhead
or lossiness. For example `ar` has a tough time dealing with files that have
the same name in archives, and the compiler copies many files around to ensure
they can be passed to `ar` in a reasonable fashion.
* Most `ar` programs found do **not** have the ability to target arbitrary
platforms, so this is an extra tool which needs to be found/specified when
cross compiling.
The LLVM project has had a tool called `llvm-ar` for quite some time now, but it
wasn't available in the standard LLVM libraries (it was just a standalone
program). Recently, however, in LLVM 3.7, this functionality has been moved to a
library and is now accessible by consumers of LLVM via the `writeArchive`
function.
This commit migrates our archive bindings to no longer invoke `ar` by default
but instead make a library call to LLVM to do various operations. This solves
all of the downsides listed above:
* Archive management is now much faster, for example creating a "hello world"
staticlib is now 6x faster (50ms => 8ms). Linking dynamic libraries also
recently started requiring modification of rlibs, and linking a hello world
dynamic library is now 2x faster.
* The compiler is now one step closer to "hassle free" cross compilation because
no external tool is needed for managing archives, LLVM does the right thing!
This commit does not remove support for calling a system `ar` utility currently.
We will continue to maintain compatibility with LLVM 3.5 and 3.6 looking forward
(so the system LLVM can be used wherever possible), and in these cases we must
shell out to a system utility. All nightly builds of Rust, however, will stop
needing a system `ar`.

This commit also deprecates the `as_string` and `as_slice` free functions in the
`string` and `vec` modules.
|
|
This commit shards the broad `core` feature of the libcore library into finer
grained features. This split groups together similar APIs and enables tracking
each API separately, giving a better sense of where each feature is within the
stabilization process.
A few minor APIs were deprecated along the way:
* Iterator::reverse_in_place
* marker::NoCopy

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1044][rfc] which adds additional
surface area to the `std::fs` module. All new APIs are `#[unstable]` behind
assorted feature names for each one.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1044
The new APIs added are:
* `fs::canonicalize` - bindings to `realpath` on unix and
`GetFinalPathNameByHandle` on windows.
* `fs::symlink_metadata` - similar to `lstat` on unix
* `fs::FileType` and accessor methods as `is_{file,dir,symlink}`
* `fs::Metadata::file_type` - accessor for the raw file type
* `fs::DirEntry::metadata` - acquisition of metadata which is free on Windows
but requires a syscall on unix.
* `fs::DirEntry::file_type` - access the file type which may not require a
syscall on most platforms.
* `fs::DirEntry::file_name` - access just the file name without leading
components.
* `fs::PathExt::symlink_metadata` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `fs::PathExt::canonicalize` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `fs::PathExt::read_link` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `fs::PathExt::read_dir` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `std::os::raw` - type definitions for raw OS/C types available on all
platforms.
* `std::os::$platform` - new modules have been added for all currently supported
platforms (e.g. those more specific than just `unix`).
* `std::os::$platform::raw` - platform-specific type definitions. These modules
are populated with the bare essentials necessary for lowing I/O types into
their raw representations, and currently largely consist of the `stat`
definition for unix platforms.
This commit also deprecates `Metadata::{modified, accessed}` in favor of
inspecting the raw representations via the lowering methods of `Metadata`.

When linking an archive statically to an rlib, the compiler will extract all
contents of the archive and add them all to the rlib being generated. The
current method of extraction is to run `ar x`, dumping all files into a
temporary directory. Object archives, however, are allowed to have multiple
entries with the same file name, so there is no method for them to extract their
contents into a directory in a lossless fashion.
This commit adds iterator support to the `ArchiveRO` structure which hooks into
LLVM's support for reading object archives. This iterator is then used to
inspect each object in turn and extract it to a unique location for later
assembly.
|
|
Just bind the relevant platform-specific functions we should probably be calling
anyway.

This commit stabilizes a few remaining bits of the `io::Error` type:
* The `Error::new` method is now stable. The last `detail` parameter was removed
and the second `desc` parameter was generalized to `E: Into<Box<Error>>` to
allow creating an I/O error from any form of error. Currently there is no form
of downcasting, but this will be added in time.
* An implementation of `From<&str> for Box<Error>` was added to liballoc to
allow construction of errors from raw strings.
* The `Error::raw_os_error` method was stabilized as-is.
* Trait impls for `Clone`, `Eq`, and `PartialEq` were removed from `Error` as it
is not possible to use them with trait objects.
This is a breaking change due to the modification of the `new` method as well as
the removal of the trait implementations for the `Error` type.

This commit cleans out a large amount of deprecated APIs from the standard
library and some of the facade crates as well, updating all users in the
compiler and in tests as it goes along.
|
|
* Marks `#[stable]` the contents of the `std::convert` module.
* Added methods `PathBuf::as_path`, `OsString::as_os_str`,
`String::as_str`, `Vec::{as_slice, as_mut_slice}`.
* Deprecates `OsStr::from_str` in favor of a new, stable, and more
general `OsStr::new`.
* Adds unstable methods `OsString::from_bytes` and `OsStr::{to_bytes,
to_cstring}` for ergonomic FFI usage.

This commit:
* Introduces `std::convert`, providing an implementation of
RFC 529.
* Deprecates the `AsPath`, `AsOsStr`, and `IntoBytes` traits, all
in favor of the corresponding generic conversion traits.
Consequently, various IO APIs now take `AsRef<Path>` rather than
`AsPath`, and so on. Since the types provided by `std` implement both
traits, this should cause relatively little breakage.
* Deprecates many `from_foo` constructors in favor of `from`.
* Changes `PathBuf::new` to take no argument (creating an empty buffer,
as per convention). The previous behavior is now available as
`PathBuf::from`.
* De-stabilizes `IntoCow`. It's not clear whether we need this separate trait.

This commit deprecates the `count`, `range` and `range_step` functions
in `iter`, in favor of range notation. To recover all existing
functionality, a new `step_by` adapter is provided directly on `ops::Range`
and `ops::RangeFrom`.

This commit stabilizes essentially all of the new `std::path` API. The
API itself is changed in a couple of ways (which brings it in closer
alignment with the RFC):
* `.` components are now normalized away, unless they appear at the
start of a path. This in turn effects the semantics of e.g. asking for
the file name of `foo/` or `foo/.`, both of which yield `Some("foo")`
now. This semantics is what the original RFC specified, and is also
desirable given early experience rolling out the new API.
* The `parent` function now succeeds if, and only if, the path has at
least one non-root/prefix component. This change affects `pop` as
well.
* The `Prefix` component now involves a separate `PrefixComponent`
struct, to better allow for keeping both parsed and unparsed prefix data.
In addition, the `old_path` module is now deprecated.
Closes #23264

This commit performs a stabilization pass over the `std::fs` module now that
it's had some time to bake. The change was largely just adding `#[stable]` tags,
but there are a few APIs that remain `#[unstable]`.
The following apis are now marked `#[stable]`:
* `std::fs` (the name)
* `File`
* `Metadata`
* `ReadDir`
* `DirEntry`
* `OpenOptions`
* `Permissions`
* `File::{open, create}`
* `File::{sync_all, sync_data}`
* `File::set_len`
* `File::metadata`
* Trait implementations for `File` and `&File`
* `OpenOptions::new`
* `OpenOptions::{read, write, append, truncate, create}`
* `OpenOptions::open` - this function was modified, however, to not attempt to
reject cross-platform openings of directories. This means that some platforms
will succeed in opening a directory and others will fail.
* `Metadata::{is_dir, is_file, len, permissions}`
* `Permissions::{readonly, set_readonly}`
* `Iterator for ReadDir`
* `DirEntry::path`
* `remove_file` - like with `OpenOptions::open`, the extra windows code to
remove a readonly file has been removed. This means that removing a readonly
file will succeed on some platforms but fail on others.
* `metadata`
* `rename`
* `copy`
* `hard_link`
* `soft_link`
* `read_link`
* `create_dir`
* `create_dir_all`
* `remove_dir`
* `remove_dir_all`
* `read_dir`
The following apis remain `#[unstable]`.
* `WalkDir` and `walk` - there are many methods by which a directory walk can be
constructed, and it's unclear whether the current semantics are the right
ones. For example symlinks are not handled super well currently. This is now
behind a new `fs_walk` feature.
* `File::path` - this is an extra abstraction which the standard library
provides on top of what the system offers and it's unclear whether we should
be doing so. This is now behind a new `file_path` feature.
* `Metadata::{accessed, modified}` - we do not currently have a good
abstraction for a moment in time which is what these APIs should likely be
returning, so these remain `#[unstable]` for now. These are now behind a new
`fs_time` feature
* `set_file_times` - like with `Metadata::accessed`, we do not currently have
the appropriate abstraction for the arguments here so this API remains
unstable behind the `fs_time` feature gate.
* `PathExt` - the precise set of methods on this trait may change over time and
some methods may be removed. This API remains unstable behind the `path_ext`
feature gate.
* `set_permissions` - we may wish to expose a more granular ability to set the
permissions on a file instead of just a blanket "set all permissions" method.
This function remains behind the `fs` feature.
The following apis are now `#[deprecated]`
* The `TempDir` type is now entirely deprecated and is [located on
crates.io][tempdir] as the `tempdir` crate with [its source][github] at
rust-lang/tempdir.
[tempdir]: https://crates.io/crates/tempdir
[github]: https://github.com/rust-lang/tempdir
The stability of some of these APIs has been questioned over the past few weeks
in using these APIs, and it is intentional that the majority of APIs here are
marked `#[stable]`. The `std::fs` module has a lot of room to grow and the
material is [being tracked in a RFC issue][rfc-issue].

This commit deprecates the majority of std::old_io::fs in favor of std::fs and
its new functionality. Some functions remain non-deprecated but are now behind a
feature gate called `old_fs`. These functions will be deprecated once
suitable replacements have been implemented.
The compiler has been migrated to new `std::fs` and `std::path` APIs where
appropriate as part of this change.
|
|
Now that the `std::env` module has had some time to bake this commit marks most
of its APIs as `#[stable]`. Some notable APIs that are **not** stable (and still
use the same `env` feature gate) are:
* `{set,get}_exit_status` - there are still questions about whether this is the
right interface for setting/getting the exit status of a process.
* `page_size` - this may change location in the future or perhaps name as well.
This also effectively closes #22122 as the variants of `VarError` are
`#[stable]` now. (this is done intentionally)
|
|
This commit moves `std::env` away from the `std::old_io` error type as well as
the `std::old_path` module. Methods returning an error now return `io::Error`
and methods consuming or returning paths use `std::path` instead of
`std::old_path`. This commit does not yet mark these APIs as `#[stable]`.
This commit also migrates `std::old_io::TempDir` to `std::fs::TempDir` with
essentially the exact same API. This type was added to interoperate with the new
path API and has its own `tempdir` feature.
Finally, this commit reverts the deprecation of `std::os` APIs returning the old
path API types. This deprecation can come back once the entire `std::old_path`
module is deprecated.
[breaking-change]
|
|
This commit renames the features for the `std::old_io` and `std::old_path`
modules to `old_io` and `old_path` to help facilitate migration to the new APIs.
This is a breaking change as crates which mention the old feature names now need
to be renamed to use the new feature names.

This is an implementation of [RFC 578][rfc] which adds a new `std::env` module
to replace most of the functionality in the current `std::os` module. More
details can be found in the RFC itself, but as a summary the following methods
have all been deprecated:
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/578
* `os::args_as_bytes` => `env::args`
* `os::args` => `env::args`
* `os::consts` => `env::consts`
* `os::dll_filename` => no replacement, use `env::consts` directly
* `os::page_size` => `env::page_size`
* `os::make_absolute` => use `env::current_dir` + `join` instead
* `os::getcwd` => `env::current_dir`
* `os::change_dir` => `env::set_current_dir`
* `os::homedir` => `env::home_dir`
* `os::tmpdir` => `env::temp_dir`
* `os::join_paths` => `env::join_paths`
* `os::split_paths` => `env::split_paths`
* `os::self_exe_name` => `env::current_exe`
* `os::self_exe_path` => use `env::current_exe` + `pop`
* `os::set_exit_status` => `env::set_exit_status`
* `os::get_exit_status` => `env::get_exit_status`
* `os::env` => `env::vars`
* `os::env_as_bytes` => `env::vars`
* `os::getenv` => `env::var` or `env::var_string`
* `os::getenv_as_bytes` => `env::var`
* `os::setenv` => `env::set_var`
* `os::unsetenv` => `env::remove_var`
Many function signatures have also been tweaked for various purposes, but the
main changes were:
* `Vec`-returning APIs now all return iterators instead
* All APIs are now centered around `OsString` instead of `Vec<u8>` or `String`.
There is currently on convenience API, `env::var_string`, which can be used to
get the value of an environment variable as a unicode `String`.
All old APIs are `#[deprecated]` in-place and will remain for some time to allow
for migrations. The semantics of the APIs have been tweaked slightly with regard
to dealing with invalid unicode (panic instead of replacement).
The new `std::env` module is all contained within the `env` feature, so crates
must add the following to access the new APIs:
#![feature(env)]

case (i.e. stability levels for out-of-tree crates), and lets the
staged_api attributes use 'unstable' and 'deprecated' lints.
This makes the transition period to the full feature staging design
a bit nicer.

This partially implements the feature staging described in the
[release channel RFC][rc]. It does not yet fully conform to the RFC as
written, but does accomplish its goals sufficiently for the 1.0 alpha
release.
It has three primary user-visible effects:
* On the nightly channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of feature gates generates a warning.
Code that does not trigger these warnings is considered 'stable',
modulo pre-1.0 bugs.
Disabling the warnings for unstable APIs continues to be done in the
existing (i.e. old) style, via `#[allow(...)]`, not that specified in
the RFC. I deem this marginally acceptable since any code that must do
this is not using the stable dialect of Rust.
Use of feature gates is itself gated with the new 'unstable_features'
lint, on nightly set to 'allow', and on beta 'warn'.
The attribute scheme used here corresponds to an older version of the
RFC, with the `#[staged_api]` crate attribute toggling the staging
behavior of the stability attributes, but the user impact is only
in-tree so I'm not concerned about having to make design changes later
(and I may ultimately prefer the scheme here after all, with the
`#[staged_api]` crate attribute).
Since the Rust codebase itself makes use of unstable features the
compiler and build system to a midly elaborate dance to allow it to
bootstrap while disobeying these lints (which would otherwise be
errors because Rust builds with `-D warnings`).
This patch includes one significant hack that causes a
regression. Because the `format_args!` macro emits calls to unstable
APIs it would trigger the lint. I added a hack to the lint to make it
not trigger, but this in turn causes arguments to `println!` not to be
checked for feature gates. I don't presently understand macro
expansion well enough to fix. This is bug #20661.
Closes #16678
