2014-05-07std: Add I/O timeouts to networking objectsAlex Crichton-15/+404
These timeouts all follow the same pattern as established by the timeouts on acceptors. There are three methods: set_timeout, set_read_timeout, and set_write_timeout. Each of these sets a point in the future after which operations will time out. Timeouts with cloned objects are a little trickier. Each object is viewed as having its own timeout, unaffected by other objects' timeouts. Additionally, timeouts do not propagate when a stream is cloned or when a cloned stream has its timeouts modified. This commit is just the public interface which will be exposed for timeouts, the implementation will come in later commits.

This will allow methods like read_line() on RefReader, LimitReader, etc.
2014-05-07auto merge of #13751 : alexcrichton/rust/io-close-read, r=brsonbors-14/+201
Two new methods were added to TcpStream and UnixStream: fn close_read(&mut self) -> IoResult<()>; fn close_write(&mut self) -> IoResult<()>; These two methods map to shutdown()'s behavior (the system call on unix), closing the reading or writing half of a duplex stream. These methods are primarily added to allow waking up a pending read in another task. By closing the reading half of a connection, all pending readers will be woken up and will return with EndOfFile. The close_write() method was added for symmetry with close_read(), and I imagine that it will be quite useful at some point. Implementation-wise, librustuv got the short end of the stick this time. The native versions just delegate to the shutdown() syscall (easy). The uv versions can leverage uv_shutdown() for tcp/unix streams, but only for closing the writing half. Closing the reading half is done through some careful dancing to wake up a pending reader. As usual, windows likes to be different from unix. The windows implementation uses shutdown() for sockets, but shutdown() is not available for named pipes. Instead, CancelIoEx was used with same fancy synchronization to make sure everyone knows what's up. cc #11165

2014-05-07core: Move Option::expect to libstd from libcoreAlex Crichton-0/+1
See #14008 for more details
2014-05-07core: Add unwrap()/unwrap_err() methods to ResultAlex Crichton-4/+6
These implementations must live in libstd right now because the fmt module has not been migrated yet. This will occur in a later PR. Just to be clear, there are new extension traits, but they are not necessary once the std::fmt module has migrated to libcore, which is a planned migration in the future.
2014-05-07core: Inherit possible string functionalityAlex Crichton-2/+1
This moves as much allocation as possible from teh std::str module into core::str. This includes essentially all non-allocating functionality, mostly iterators and slicing and such. This primarily splits the Str trait into only having the as_slice() method, adding a new StrAllocating trait to std::str which contains the relevant new allocation methods. This is a breaking change if any of the methods of "trait Str" were overriden. The old functionality can be restored by implementing both the Str and StrAllocating traits. [breaking-change]
2014-05-07std: Implement the Buffer trait for some wrappersAlex Crichton-1/+63

2014-05-06auto merge of #13754 : alexcrichton/rust/net-experimental, r=brsonbors-1/+70
The underlying I/O objects implement a good deal of various options here and there for tuning network sockets and how they perform. Most of this is a relic of "whatever libuv provides", but these options are genuinely useful. It is unclear at this time whether these options should be well supported or not, or whether they have correct names or not. For now, I believe it's better to expose the functionality than to not, but all new methods are added with an #[experimental] annotation.
2014-05-05Change std::io::FilePermission to a typesafe representationAaron Turon-36/+41
This patch changes `std::io::FilePermissions` from an exposed `u32` representation to a typesafe representation (that only allows valid flag combinations) using the `std::bitflags`, thus ensuring a greater degree of safety on the Rust side. Despite the change to the type, most code should continue to work as-is, sincde the new type provides bit operations in the style of C flags. To get at the underlying integer representation, use the `bits` method; to (unsafely) convert to `FilePermissions`, use `FilePermissions::from_bits`. Closes #6085. [breaking-change]

Clarifies the interaction of `is_dir`, `is_file` and `exists` with symbolic links. Adds a convenience `lstat` function alongside of `stat`. Removes references to conditions. Closes issue #12583.
2014-04-24std: Add timeouts to unix connect/acceptAlex Crichton-1/+90
This adds support for connecting to a unix socket with a timeout (a named pipe on windows), and accepting a connection with a timeout. The goal is to bring unix pipes/named sockets back in line with TCP support for timeouts. Similarly to the TCP sockets, all methods are marked #[experimental] due to uncertainty about the type of the timeout argument. This internally involved a good bit of refactoring to share as much code as possible between TCP servers and pipe servers, but the core implementation did not change drastically as part of this commit. cc #13523
2014-04-24fix O(n^2) perf bug for std::io::fs::walk_dirAaron Turon-2/+29
The `walk_dir` iterator was simulating a queue using a vector (in particular, using `shift`), leading to O(n^2) performance. Since the order was not well-specified (see issue #13411), the simplest fix is to use the vector as a stack (and thus yield a depth-first traversal). This patch does exactly that. It leaves the order as originally specified -- "some top-down order" -- and adds a test to ensure a top-down traversal. Note that the underlying `readdir` function does not specify any particular order, nor does the system call it uses. Closes #13411.
2014-04-23auto merge of #13688 : alexcrichton/rust/accept-timeout, r=brsonbors-1/+85
This adds experimental support for timeouts when accepting sockets through `TcpAcceptor::accept`. This does not add a separate `accept_timeout` function, but rather it adds a `set_timeout` function instead. This second function is intended to be used as a hard deadline after which all accepts will never block and fail immediately. This idea was derived from Go's SetDeadline() methods. We do not currently have a robust time abstraction in the standard library, so I opted to have the argument be a relative time in millseconds into the future. I believe a more appropriate argument type is an absolute time, but this concept does not exist yet (this is also why the function is marked #[experimental]). The native support is built on select(), similarly to connect_timeout(), and the green support is based on channel select and a timer. cc #13523

2014-04-23auto merge of #13686 : alexcrichton/rust/issue-12224, r=nikomatsakisbors-4/+4
This alters the borrow checker's requirements on invoking closures from requiring an immutable borrow to requiring a unique immutable borrow. This means that it is illegal to invoke a closure through a `&` pointer because there is no guarantee that is not aliased. This does not mean that a closure is required to be in a mutable location, but rather a location which can be proven to be unique (often through a mutable pointer). For example, the following code is unsound and is no longer allowed: type Fn<'a> = ||:'a; fn call(f: |Fn|) { f(|| { f(|| {}) }); } fn main() { call(|a| { a(); }); } There is no replacement for this pattern. For all closures which are stored in structures, it was previously allowed to invoke the closure through `&self` but it now requires invocation through `&mut self`. The standard library has a good number of violations of this new rule, but the fixes will be separated into multiple breaking change commits. Closes #12224

2014-04-22native: Unlink unix socket paths on dropAlex Crichton-0/+16
This prevents unix sockets from remaining on the system all over the place, and more closely mirrors the behavior of libuv and windows pipes.
2014-04-19std: Add an experimental connect_timeout functionAlex Crichton-1/+18
This adds a `TcpStream::connect_timeout` function in order to assist opening connections with a timeout (cc #13523). There isn't really much design space for this specific operation (unlike timing out normal blocking reads/writes), so I am fairly confident that this is the correct interface for this function. The function is marked #[experimental] because it takes a u64 timeout argument, and the u64 type is likely to change in the future.

2014-04-18std: Make ~[T] no longer a growable vectorAlex Crichton-18/+15
This removes all resizability support for ~[T] vectors in preparation of DST. The only growable vector remaining is Vec<T>. In summary, the following methods from ~[T] and various functions were removed. Each method/function has an equivalent on the Vec type in std::vec unless otherwise stated. * slice::OwnedCloneableVector * slice::OwnedEqVector * slice::append * slice::append_one * slice::build (no replacement) * slice::bytes::push_bytes * slice::from_elem * slice::from_fn * slice::with_capacity * ~[T].capacity() * ~[T].clear() * ~[T].dedup() * ~[T].extend() * ~[T].grow() * ~[T].grow_fn() * ~[T].grow_set() * ~[T].insert() * ~[T].pop() * ~[T].push() * ~[T].push_all() * ~[T].push_all_move() * ~[T].remove() * ~[T].reserve() * ~[T].reserve_additional() * ~[T].reserve_exect() * ~[T].retain() * ~[T].set_len() * ~[T].shift() * ~[T].shrink_to_fit() * ~[T].swap_remove() * ~[T].truncate() * ~[T].unshift() * ~str.clear() * ~str.set_len() * ~str.truncate() Note that no other API changes were made. Existing apis that took or returned ~[T] continue to do so. [breaking-change]
2014-04-15Use the unsigned integer types for bitwise intrinsics.Huon Wilson-7/+7
Exposing ctpop, ctlz, cttz and bswap as taking signed i8/i16/... is just exposing the internal LLVM names pointlessly (LLVM doesn't have "signed integers" or "unsigned integers", it just has sized integer types with (un)signed *operations*). These operations are semantically working with raw bytes, which the unsigned types model better.

2014-04-12auto merge of #13448 : alexcrichton/rust/rework-chan-return-values, r=brsonbors-21/+20
There are currently a number of return values from the std::comm methods, not all of which are necessarily completely expressive: * `Sender::try_send(t: T) -> bool` This method currently doesn't transmit back the data `t` if the send fails due to the other end having disconnected. Additionally, this shares the name of the synchronous try_send method, but it differs in semantics in that it only has one failure case, not two (the buffer can never be full). * `SyncSender::try_send(t: T) -> TrySendResult<T>` This method accurately conveys all possible information, but it uses a custom type to the std::comm module with no convenience methods on it. Additionally, if you want to inspect the result you're forced to import something from `std::comm`. * `SyncSender::send_opt(t: T) -> Option<T>` This method uses Some(T) as an "error value" and None as a "success value", but almost all other uses of Option<T> have Some/None the other way * `Receiver::try_recv(t: T) -> TryRecvResult<T>` Similarly to the synchronous try_send, this custom return type is lacking in terms of usability (no convenience methods). With this number of drawbacks in mind, I believed it was time to re-work the return types of these methods. The new API for the comm module is: Sender::send(t: T) -> () Sender::send_opt(t: T) -> Result<(), T> SyncSender::send(t: T) -> () SyncSender::send_opt(t: T) -> Result<(), T> SyncSender::try_send(t: T) -> Result<(), TrySendError<T>> Receiver::recv() -> T Receiver::recv_opt() -> Result<T, ()> Receiver::try_recv() -> Result<T, TryRecvError> The notable changes made are: * Sender::try_send => Sender::send_opt. This renaming brings the semantics in line with the SyncSender::send_opt method. An asychronous send only has one failure case, unlike the synchronous try_send method which has two failure cases (full/disconnected). * Sender::send_opt returns the data back to the caller if the send is guaranteed to fail. This method previously returned `bool`, but then it was unable to retrieve the data if the data was guaranteed to fail to send. There is still a race such that when `Ok(())` is returned the data could still fail to be received, but that's inherent to an asynchronous channel. * Result is now the basis of all return values. This not only adds lots of convenience methods to all return values for free, but it also means that you can inspect the return values with no extra imports (Ok/Err are in the prelude). Additionally, it's now self documenting when something failed or not because the return value has "Err" in the name. Things I'm a little uneasy about: * The methods send_opt and recv_opt are not returning options, but rather results. I felt more strongly that Option was the wrong return type than the _opt prefix was wrong, and I coudn't think of a much better name for these methods. One possible way to think about them is to read the _opt suffix as "optionally". * Result<T, ()> is often better expressed as Option<T>. This is only applicable to the recv_opt() method, but I thought it would be more consistent for everything to return Result rather than one method returning an Option. Despite my two reasons to feel uneasy, I feel much better about the consistency in return values at this point, and I think the only real open question is if there's a better suffix for {send,recv}_opt.

2014-04-10rustc: Don't allow priv use to shadow pub useAlex Crichton-1/+0
Previously, a private use statement would shadow a public use statement, all of a sudden publicly exporting the privately used item. The correct behavior here is to only shadow the use for the module in question, but for now it just reverts the entire name to private so the pub use doesn't have much effect. The behavior isn't exactly what we want, but this no longer has backwards compatibility hazards.

Apparently windows doesn't like reading from stdin with a large buffer size, and it also apparently is ok with a smaller buffer size. This changes the reader returned by stdin() to return an 8k buffered reader for stdin rather than a 64k buffered reader. Apparently libuv has run into this before, taking a peek at their code, with a specific comment in their console code saying that "ReadConsole can't handle big buffers", which I presume is related to invoking ReadFile as if it were a file descriptor.
