2015-01-02std: Stabilize the prelude moduleAlex Crichton-1/+1
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 503][rfc] which is a stabilization story for the prelude. Most of the RFC was directly applied, removing reexports. Some reexports are kept around, however: * `range` remains until range syntax has landed to reduce churn. * `Path` and `GenericPath` remain until path reform lands. This is done to prevent many imports of `GenericPath` which will soon be removed. * All `io` traits remain until I/O reform lands so imports can be rewritten all at once to `std::io::prelude::*`. This is a breaking change because many prelude reexports have been removed, and the RFC can be consulted for the exact list of removed reexports, as well as to find the locations of where to import them. [rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0503-prelude-stabilization.md [breaking-change] Closes #20068

2014-12-18Remove rt::bookkeepingAaron Turon-7/+0
This commit removes the runtime bookkeeping previously used to ensure that all Rust tasks were joined before the runtime was shut down. This functionality will be replaced by an RAII style `Thread` API, that will also offer a detached mode. Since this changes the semantics of shutdown, it is a: [breaking-change]
2014-12-18libs: merge librustrt into libstdAaron Turon-0/+561
This commit merges the `rustrt` crate into `std`, undoing part of the facade. This merger continues the paring down of the runtime system. Code relying on the public API of `rustrt` will break; some of this API is now available through `std::rt`, but is likely to change and/or be removed very soon. [breaking-change]
2014-06-06std: Extract librustrt out of libstdAlex Crichton-500/+0
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]

2014-05-13std: Move the owned module from core to stdAlex Crichton-2/+1
The compiler was updated to recognize that implementations for ty_uniq(..) are allowed if the Box lang item is located in the current crate. This enforces the idea that libcore cannot allocated, and moves all related trait implementations from libcore to libstd. This is a breaking change in that the AnyOwnExt trait has moved from the any module to the owned module. Any previous users of std::any::AnyOwnExt should now use std::owned::AnyOwnExt instead. This was done because the trait is intended for Box traits and only Box traits. [breaking-change]
2014-05-11core: Remove the cast moduleAlex Crichton-11/+11
This commit revisits the `cast` module in libcore and libstd, and scrutinizes all functions inside of it. The result was to remove the `cast` module entirely, folding all functionality into the `mem` module. Specifically, this is the fate of each function in the `cast` module. * transmute - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is now marked as #[unstable]. This is due to planned changes to the `transmute` function and how it can be invoked (see the #[unstable] comment). For more information, see RFC 5 and #12898 * transmute_copy - This function was moved to `mem`, with clarification that is is not an error to invoke it with T/U that are different sizes, but rather that it is strongly discouraged. This function is now #[stable] * forget - This function was moved to `mem` and marked #[stable] * bump_box_refcount - This function was removed due to the deprecation of managed boxes as well as its questionable utility. * transmute_mut - This function was previously deprecated, and removed as part of this commit. * transmute_mut_unsafe - This function doesn't serve much of a purpose when it can be achieved with an `as` in safe code, so it was removed. * transmute_lifetime - This function was removed because it is likely a strong indication that code is incorrect in the first place. * transmute_mut_lifetime - This function was removed for the same reasons as `transmute_lifetime` * copy_lifetime - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is marked `#[unstable]` now due to the likelihood of being removed in the future if it is found to not be very useful. * copy_mut_lifetime - This function was also moved to `mem`, but had the same treatment as `copy_lifetime`. * copy_lifetime_vec - This function was removed because it is not used today, and its existence is not necessary with DST (copy_lifetime will suffice). In summary, the cast module was stripped down to these functions, and then the functions were moved to the `mem` module. transmute - #[unstable] transmute_copy - #[stable] forget - #[stable] copy_lifetime - #[unstable] copy_mut_lifetime - #[unstable] [breaking-change]
2014-05-08auto merge of #13835 : alexcrichton/rust/localdata, r=brsonbors-5/+4
This commit brings the local_data api up to modern rust standards with a few key improvements: * All functionality is now exposed as a method on the keys themselves. Instead of importing std::local_data, you now use "key.set()" and "key.get()". * All closures have been removed in favor of RAII functionality. This means that get() and get_mut() no long require closures, but rather return Option<SmartPointer> where the smart pointer takes care of relinquishing the borrow and also implements the necessary Deref traits * The modify() function was removed to cut the local_data interface down to its bare essentials (similarly to how RefCell removed set/get). [breaking-change]
2014-05-07std: Modernize the local_data apiAlex Crichton-5/+4
This commit brings the local_data api up to modern rust standards with a few key improvements: * The `pop` and `set` methods have been combined into one method, `replace` * The `get_mut` method has been removed. All interior mutability should be done through `RefCell`. * All functionality is now exposed as a method on the keys themselves. Instead of importing std::local_data, you now use "key.replace()" and "key.get()". * All closures have been removed in favor of RAII functionality.

2014-05-07std: Add I/O timeouts to networking objectsAlex Crichton-0/+6
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.
2014-05-07core: Add unwrap()/unwrap_err() methods to ResultAlex Crichton-1/+1
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.

2014-04-23std: Change Finally to take `&mut self`Alex Crichton-1/+1

2014-04-10std: Make std::comm return types consistentAlex Crichton-1/+1
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.

2014-04-03auto merge of #13237 : alexcrichton/rust/private-tuple-structs, r=brsonbors-1/+1
This is the final commit need to implement [RFC #4](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/active/0004-private-fields.md), it makes all tuple struct fields private by default, overridable with the `pub` keyword. I'll note one divergence from the original RFC which is outlined in the first commit.
2014-04-01auto merge of #13115 : huonw/rust/rand-errors, r=alexcrichtonbors-1/+1
move errno -> IoError converter into std, bubble up OSRng errors Also adds a general errno -> `~str` converter to `std::os`, and makes the failure messages for the things using `OSRng` (e.g. (transitively) the task-local RNG, meaning hashmap initialisation failures aren't such a black box).
2014-04-01rand: bubble up IO messages futher.Huon Wilson-1/+1
The various ...Rng::new() methods can hit IO errors from the OSRng they use, and it seems sensible to expose them at a higher level. Unfortunately, writing e.g. `StdRng::new().unwrap()` gives a much poorer error message than if it failed internally, but this is a problem with all `IoResult`s.

2014-03-24comm: Implement synchronous channelsAlex Crichton-2/+2
This commit contains an implementation of synchronous, bounded channels for Rust. This is an implementation of the proposal made last January [1]. These channels are built on mutexes, and currently focus on a working implementation rather than speed. Receivers for sync channels have select() implemented for them, but there is currently no implementation of select() for sync senders. Rust will continue to provide both synchronous and asynchronous channels as part of the standard distribution, there is no intent to remove asynchronous channels. This flavor of channels is meant to provide an alternative to asynchronous channels because like green tasks, asynchronous channels are not appropriate for all situations.

2014-03-15log: Introduce liblog, the old std::loggingAlex Crichton-5/+0
This commit moves all logging out of the standard library into an external crate. This crate is the new crate which is responsible for all logging macros and logging implementation. A few reasons for this change are: * The crate map has always been a bit of a code smell among rust programs. It has difficulty being loaded on almost all platforms, and it's used almost exclusively for logging and only logging. Removing the crate map is one of the end goals of this movement. * The compiler has a fair bit of special support for logging. It has the __log_level() expression as well as generating a global word per module specifying the log level. This is unfairly favoring the built-in logging system, and is much better done purely in libraries instead of the compiler itself. * Initialization of logging is much easier to do if there is no reliance on a magical crate map being available to set module log levels. * If the logging library can be written outside of the standard library, there's no reason that it shouldn't be. It's likely that we're not going to build the highest quality logging library of all time, so third-party libraries should be able to provide just as high-quality logging systems as the default one provided in the rust distribution. With a migration such as this, the change does not come for free. There are some subtle changes in the behavior of liblog vs the previous logging macros: * The core change of this migration is that there is no longer a physical log-level per module. This concept is still emulated (it is quite useful), but there is now only a global log level, not a local one. This global log level is a reflection of the maximum of all log levels specified. The previously generated logging code looked like: if specified_level <= __module_log_level() { println!(...) } The newly generated code looks like: if specified_level <= ::log::LOG_LEVEL { if ::log::module_enabled(module_path!()) { println!(...) } } Notably, the first layer of checking is still intended to be "super fast" in that it's just a load of a global word and a compare. The second layer of checking is executed to determine if the current module does indeed have logging turned on. This means that if any module has a debug log level turned on, all modules with debug log levels get a little bit slower (they all do more expensive dynamic checks to determine if they're turned on or not). Semantically, this migration brings no change in this respect, but runtime-wise, this will have a perf impact on some code. * A `RUST_LOG=::help` directive will no longer print out a list of all modules that can be logged. This is because the crate map will no longer specify the log levels of all modules, so the list of modules is not known. Additionally, warnings can no longer be provided if a malformed logging directive was supplied. The new "hello world" for logging looks like: #[phase(syntax, link)] extern crate log; fn main() { debug!("Hello, world!"); }

2014-02-13Don't require an allocation for on_exit messagesAlex Crichton-4/+12

2014-02-11Rewrite channels yet again for upgradeabilityAlex Crichton-1/+1
This, the Nth rewrite of channels, is not a rewrite of the core logic behind channels, but rather their API usage. In the past, we had the distinction between oneshot, stream, and shared channels, but the most recent rewrite dropped oneshots in favor of streams and shared channels. This distinction of stream vs shared has shown that it's not quite what we'd like either, and this moves the `std::comm` module in the direction of "one channel to rule them all". There now remains only one Chan and one Port. This new channel is actually a hybrid oneshot/stream/shared channel under the hood in order to optimize for the use cases in question. Additionally, this also reduces the cognitive burden of having to choose between a Chan or a SharedChan in an API. My simple benchmarks show no reduction in efficiency over the existing channels today, and a 3x improvement in the oneshot case. I sadly don't have a pre-last-rewrite compiler to test out the old old oneshots, but I would imagine that the performance is comparable, but slightly slower (due to atomic reference counting). This commit also brings the bonus bugfix to channels that the pending queue of messages are all dropped when a Port disappears rather then when both the Port and the Chan disappear.
