Fix current_exe() on DragonFly (again)
This is a follow up on [this pull request][1].
Since DragonFly 4.6.1 ([this commit][2]), the ```kern.proc.pathname```
sysctl works correctly, i.e. it does not return paths including a ```:```
(see [here][3]). Use it and don't try to fix old versions of DragonFly!
There are not many DragonFly installations out there that we can't
control and no one is compiling Rust from source. If someone wants to
run Rust on a pre-4.6.1 DragonFly system, the ports system should
provide a patch.

Implement a faster sort algorithm
Hi everyone, this is my first PR.
I've made some changes to the standard sort algorithm, starting out with a few tweaks here and there, but in the end this endeavour became a complete rewrite of it.
#### Summary
Changes:
* Improved performance, especially on partially sorted inputs.
* Performs less comparisons on both random and partially sorted inputs.
* Decreased the size of temporary memory: the new sort allocates 4x less.
Benchmark:

```
#### Background
First, let me just do a quick brain dump to discuss what I learned along the way.
The official documentation says that the standard sort in Rust is a stable sort. This constraint is thus set in stone and immediately rules out many popular sorting algorithms. Essentially, the only algorithms we might even take into consideration are:
1. [Merge sort](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_sort)
2. [Block sort](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_sort) (famous implementations are [WikiSort](https://github.com/BonzaiThePenguin/WikiSort) and [GrailSort](https://github.com/Mrrl/GrailSort))
3. [TimSort](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort)
Actually, all of those are just merge sort flavors. :) The current standard sort in Rust is a simple iterative merge sort. It has three problems. First, it's slow on partially sorted inputs (even though #29675 helped quite a bit). Second, it always makes around `log(n)` iterations copying the entire array between buffers, no matter what. Third, it allocates huge amounts of temporary memory (a buffer of size `2*n`, where `n` is the size of input).
The problem of auxilliary memory allocation is a tough one. Ideally, it would be best for our sort to allocate `O(1)` additional memory. This is what block sort (and it's variants) does. However, it's often very complicated (look at [this](https://github.com/BonzaiThePenguin/WikiSort/blob/master/WikiSort.cpp)) and even then performs rather poorly. The author of WikiSort claims good performance, but that must be taken with a grain of salt. It performs well in comparison to `std::stable_sort` in C++. It can even beat `std::sort` on partially sorted inputs, but on random inputs it's always far worse. My rule of thumb is: high performance, low memory overhead, stability - choose two.
TimSort is another option. It allocates a buffer of size `n/2`, which is not great, but acceptable. Performs extremelly well on partially sorted inputs. However, it seems pretty much all implementations suck on random inputs. I benchmarked implementations in [Rust](https://github.com/notriddle/rust-timsort), [C++](https://github.com/gfx/cpp-TimSort), and [D](https://github.com/dlang/phobos/blob/fd518eb310a9494cccf28c54892542b052c49669/std/algorithm/sorting.d#L2062). The results were a bit disappointing. It seems bad performance is due to complex galloping procedures in hot loops. Galloping noticeably improves performance on partially sorted inputs, but worsens it on random ones.
#### The new algorithm
Choosing the best algorithm is not easy. Plain merge sort is bad on partially sorted inputs. TimSort is bad on random inputs and block sort is even worse. However, if we take the main ideas from TimSort (intelligent merging strategy of sorted runs) and drop galloping, then we'll have great performance on random inputs and it won't be bad on partially sorted inputs either.
That is exactly what this new algorithm does. I can't call it TimSort, since it steals just a few of it's ideas. Complete TimSort would be a much more complex and elaborate implementation. In case we in the future figure out how to incorporate more of it's ideas into this implementation without crippling performance on random inputs, it's going to be very easy to extend. I also did several other minor improvements, like reworked insertion sort to make it faster.
There are also new, more thorough benchmarks and panic safety tests.
The final code is not terribly complex and has less unsafe code than I anticipated, but there's still plenty of it that should be carefully reviewed. I did my best at documenting non-obvious code.
I'd like to notify several people of this PR, since they might be interested and have useful insights:
1. @huonw because he wrote the [original merge sort](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/11064).
2. @alexcrichton because he was involved in multiple discussions of it.
3. @veddan because he wrote [introsort](https://github.com/veddan/rust-introsort) in Rust.
4. @notriddle because he wrote [TimSort](https://github.com/notriddle/rust-timsort) in Rust.
5. @bluss because he had an attempt at writing WikiSort in Rust.
6. @gnzlbg, @rkruppe, and @mark-i-m because they were involved in discussion #36318.
**P.S.** [quickersort](https://github.com/notriddle/quickersort) describes itself as being universally [faster](https://github.com/notriddle/quickersort/blob/master/perf.txt) than the standard sort, which is true. However, if this PR gets merged, things might [change](https://gist.github.com/stjepang/b9f0c3eaa0e1f1280b61b963dae19a30) a bit. ;)

rustbuild: Implement distcheck
This commit implements the `distcheck` target for rustbuild which is only ever
run on our nightly bots. This essentially just creates a tarball, un-tars it,
and then runs a full build, validating that the release tarballs do indeed have
everything they need to build Rust.

Since merge_sort is generic and collapse isn't, that means calls to
collapse won't be inlined. inlined. Therefore, we must stick an
`#[inline]` above `fn collapse`.

fix objc ABI in std::env::args
iOS use different calling convention for `objc_msgSend` depending on the platform. armv7 expect good old variadic arguments, but aarch64 wants "normal" convention: `objc_msgSend` has to be called mimicking the actual callee prototype.
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/General/Conceptual/CocoaTouch64BitGuide/ConvertingYourAppto64-Bit/ConvertingYourAppto64-Bit.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40013501-CH3-SW26
This currently breaks std::env:args() on aarch64 iOS devices. As far as I can tell, in the standard library, this is the only occurrence of ObjectiveC dispatching.

rustbuild: Use src/rustc for assembled compilers
The `src/rustc` path is intended for assembling a compiler (e.g. the bare bones)
not actually compiling the whole compiler itself. This path was accidentally
getting hijacked to represent the whole compiler being compiled, so let's
redirect that elsewhere for that particular cargo project.

mk: Switch rustbuild to the default build system
This commit switches the default build system for Rust from the makefiles to
rustbuild. The rustbuild build system has been in development for almost a year
now and has become quite mature over time. This commit is an implementation of
the proposal on [internals] which slates deletion of the makefiles on
2017-02-02.
[internals]: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/proposal-for-promoting-rustbuild-to-official-status/4368
This commit also updates various documentation in `README.md`,
`CONTRIBUTING.md`, `src/bootstrap/README.md`, and throughout the source code of
rustbuild itself.

Forward more ExactSizeIterator methods and `is_empty` edits
- Forward ExactSizeIterator methods in more places, like `&mut I` and `Box<I>` iterator impls.
- Improve `VecDeque::is_empty` itself (see commit 4)
- All the collections iterators now have `len` or `is_empty` forwarded if doing so is a benefit. In the remaining cases, they already use a simple size hint (using something like a stored `usize` value), which is sufficient for the default implementation of len and is_empty.
|
|
Remove redundant assertion near is_char_boundary
Follow-up from #38056. `is_char_boundary` already checks for `idx <= len`, so, an extra assertion is redundant.
|
|
|
|
Remove Self: Sized from Iterator::nth
It is an unnecessary restriction; nth neither needs self to be sized
nor needs to be exempted from the trait object.
It increases the utility of the nth method, because type specific
implementations are available through `&mut I` or through an iterator
trait object.
It is a backwards compatible change due to the special cases of the
`where Self: Sized` bound; it was already optional to include this bound
in `Iterator` implementations.
|
|
|
|
Smarter HashMap/HashSet pre-allocation for extend/from_iter
HashMap/HashSet from_iter and extend are making totally different assumptions.
A more balanced decision may allocate half the lower hint (rounding up). For "well defined" iterators this effectively limits the worst case to two resizes (the initial reserve + one resize).

Don't apply msvc link opts for non-opt build
`/OPT:REF,ICF` sometimes takes lots of time. It makes no sense to apply them when doing debug build. MSVC's linker by default disables these optimizations when `/DEBUG` is specified, unless they are explicitly passed.
