2014-08-28auto merge of #16664 : aturon/rust/stabilize-option-result, r=alexcrichtonbors-9/+9
Per API meeting https://github.com/rust-lang/meeting-minutes/blob/master/Meeting-API-review-2014-08-13.md # Changes to `core::option` Most of the module is marked as stable or unstable; most of the unstable items are awaiting resolution of conventions issues. However, a few methods have been deprecated, either due to lack of use or redundancy: * `take_unwrap`, `get_ref` and `get_mut_ref` (redundant, and we prefer for this functionality to go through an explicit .unwrap) * `filtered` and `while` * `mutate` and `mutate_or_set` * `collect`: this functionality is being moved to a new `FromIterator` impl. # Changes to `core::result` Most of the module is marked as stable or unstable; most of the unstable items are awaiting resolution of conventions issues. * `collect`: this functionality is being moved to a new `FromIterator` impl. * `fold_` is deprecated due to lack of use * Several methods found in `core::option` are added here, including `iter`, `as_slice`, and variants. Due to deprecations, this is a: [breaking-change]

2014-08-16librustc: Forbid external crates, imports, and/or items from beingPatrick Walton-2/+2
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]
2014-08-04stabilize atomics (now atomic)Aaron Turon-1/+1
This commit stabilizes the `std::sync::atomics` module, renaming it to `std::sync::atomic` to match library precedent elsewhere, and tightening up behavior around incorrect memory ordering annotations. The vast majority of the module is now `stable`. However, the `AtomicOption` type has been deprecated, since it is essentially unused and is not truly a primitive atomic type. It will eventually be replaced by a higher-level abstraction like MVars. Due to deprecations, this is a: [breaking-change]

2014-07-30green: Prevent runtime corruption on spawn failureAlex Crichton-1/+1
Like with libnative, when a green task failed to spawn it would leave the world in a corrupt state where the local scheduler had been dropped as well as the local task. Also like libnative, this patch sets up a "bomb" which when it goes off will restore the state of the world.
2014-07-30rustrt: Allow dropping a brand-new TaskAlex Crichton-7/+30
When a new task fails to spawn, it triggers a task failure of the spawning task. This ends up causing runtime aborts today because of the destructor bomb in the Task structure. The bomb doesn't actually need to go off until *after* the task has run at least once. This now prevents a runtime abort when a native thread fails to spawn.
2014-07-24libsyntax: Remove `~self` and `mut ~self` from the language.Patrick Walton-8/+11
This eliminates the last vestige of the `~` syntax. Instead of `~self`, write `self: Box<TypeOfSelf>`; instead of `mut ~self`, write `mut self: Box<TypeOfSelf>`, replacing `TypeOfSelf` with the self-type parameter as specified in the implementation. Closes #13885. [breaking-change]
2014-07-13Stabilization for `owned` (now `boxed`) and `cell`Aaron Turon-2/+2
This PR is the outcome of the library stabilization meeting for the `liballoc::owned` and `libcore::cell` modules. Aside from the stability attributes, there are a few breaking changes: * The `owned` modules is now named `boxed`, to better represent its contents. (`box` was unavailable, since it's a keyword.) This will help avoid the misconception that `Box` plays a special role wrt ownership. * The `AnyOwnExt` extension trait is renamed to `BoxAny`, and its `move` method is renamed to `downcast`, in both cases to improve clarity. * The recently-added `AnySendOwnExt` extension trait is removed; it was not being used and is unnecessary.

floating point numbers for real. This will break code that looks like: let mut x = 0; while ... { x += 1; } println!("{}", x); Change that code to: let mut x = 0i; while ... { x += 1; } println!("{}", x); Closes #15201. [breaking-change]
2014-06-26rustrt: Reorganize task usageAlex Crichton-88/+247
Most of the comments are available on the Task structure itself, but this commit is aimed at making FFI-style usage of Rust tasks a little nicer. Primarily, this commit enables re-use of tasks across multiple invocations. The method `run` will no longer unconditionally destroy the task itself. Rather, the task will be internally re-usable if the closure specified did not fail. Once a task has failed once it is considered poisoned and it can never be used again. Along the way I tried to document shortcomings of the current method of tearing down a task, opening a few issues as well. For now none of the behavior is a showstopper, but it's useful to acknowledge it. Also along the way I attempted to remove as much `unsafe` code as possible, opting for safer abstractions.

2014-06-14rustc: Obsolete the `@` syntax entirelyAlex Crichton-8/+9
This removes all remnants of `@` pointers from rustc. Additionally, this removes the `GC` structure from the prelude as it seems odd exporting an experimental type in the prelude by default. Closes #14193 [breaking-change]

2014-06-06std: Extract librustrt out of libstdAlex Crichton-0/+479
As part of the libstd facade efforts, this commit extracts the runtime interface out of the standard library into a standalone crate, librustrt. This crate will provide the following services: * Definition of the rtio interface * Definition of the Runtime interface * Implementation of the Task structure * Implementation of task-local-data * Implementation of task failure via unwinding via libunwind * Implementation of runtime initialization and shutdown * Implementation of thread-local-storage for the local rust Task Notably, this crate avoids the following services: * Thread creation and destruction. The crate does not require the knowledge of an OS threading system, and as a result it seemed best to leave out the `rt::thread` module from librustrt. The librustrt module does depend on mutexes, however. * Implementation of backtraces. There is no inherent requirement for the runtime to be able to generate backtraces. As will be discussed later, this functionality continues to live in libstd rather than librustrt. As usual, a number of architectural changes were required to make this crate possible. Users of "stable" functionality will not be impacted by this change, but users of the `std::rt` module will likely note the changes. A list of architectural changes made is: * The stdout/stderr handles no longer live directly inside of the `Task` structure. This is a consequence of librustrt not knowing about `std::io`. These two handles are now stored inside of task-local-data. The handles were originally stored inside of the `Task` for perf reasons, and TLD is not currently as fast as it could be. For comparison, 100k prints goes from 59ms to 68ms (a 15% slowdown). This appeared to me to be an acceptable perf loss for the successful extraction of a librustrt crate. * The `rtio` module was forced to duplicate more functionality of `std::io`. As the module no longer depends on `std::io`, `rtio` now defines structures such as socket addresses, addrinfo fiddly bits, etc. The primary change made was that `rtio` now defines its own `IoError` type. This type is distinct from `std::io::IoError` in that it does not have an enum for what error occurred, but rather a platform-specific error code. The native and green libraries will be updated in later commits for this change, and the bulk of this effort was put behind updating the two libraries for this change (with `rtio`). * Printing a message on task failure (along with the backtrace) continues to live in libstd, not in librustrt. This is a consequence of the above decision to move the stdout/stderr handles to TLD rather than inside the `Task` itself. The unwinding API now supports registration of global callback functions which will be invoked when a task fails, allowing for libstd to register a function to print a message and a backtrace. The API for registering a callback is experimental and unsafe, as the ramifications of running code on unwinding is pretty hairy. * The `std::unstable::mutex` module has moved to `std::rt::mutex`. * The `std::unstable::sync` module has been moved to `std::rt::exclusive` and the type has been rewritten to not internally have an Arc and to have an RAII guard structure when locking. Old code should stop using `Exclusive` in favor of the primitives in `libsync`, but if necessary, old code should port to `Arc<Exclusive<T>>`. * The local heap has been stripped down to have fewer debugging options. None of these were tested, and none of these have been used in a very long time. [breaking-change]
