This performs a substitution of code following the pattern:
let <id> = if let <pat> = ... { identity } else { ... : ! };
To simplify it to:
let <pat> = ... { identity } else { ... : ! };
By adopting the let_else feature.
MIR lowering for `if let` expressions is now more complicated now that
`if let` exists in HIR. This PR adds a scope for the variables bound in
an `if let` expression and then uses an approach similar to how we
handle loops to ensure that we reliably drop the correct variables.
This commit intends to fill out some of the remaining pieces of the
C-unwind ABI. This has a number of other changes with it though to move
this design space forward a bit. Notably contained within here is:
* On `panic=unwind`, the `extern "C"` ABI is now considered as "may
unwind". This fixes a longstanding soundness issue where if you
`panic!()` in an `extern "C"` function defined in Rust that's actually
UB because the LLVM representation for the function has the `nounwind`
attribute, but then you unwind.
* Whether or not a function unwinds now mainly considers the ABI of the
function instead of first checking the panic strategy. This fixes a
miscompile of `extern "C-unwind"` with `panic=abort` because that ABI
can still unwind.
* The aborting stub for non-unwinding ABIs with `panic=unwind` has been
reimplemented. Previously this was done as a small tweak during MIR
generation, but this has been moved to a separate and dedicated MIR
pass. This new pass will, for appropriate functions and function
calls, insert a `cleanup` landing pad for any function call that may
unwind within a function that is itself not allowed to unwind. Note
that this subtly changes some behavior from before where previously on
an unwind which was caught-to-abort it would run active destructors in
the function, and now it simply immediately aborts the process.
* The `#[unwind]` attribute has been removed and all users in tests and
such are now using `C-unwind` and `#![feature(c_unwind)]`.
I think this is largely the last piece of the RFC to implement.
Unfortunately I believe this is still not stabilizable as-is because
activating the feature gate changes the behavior of the existing `extern
"C"` ABI in a way that has no replacement. My thinking for how to enable
this is that we add support for the `C-unwind` ABI on stable Rust first,
and then after it hits stable we change the behavior of the `C` ABI.
That way anyone straddling stable/beta/nightly can switch to `C-unwind`
safely.
`continue` statements were missing coverage. This was particularly
noticeable in a match pattern that contained only a `continue`
statement, leaving the branch appear uncounted. This PR addresses the
problem and adds tests to prove it.
Implement if-let match guards
Implements rust-lang/rfcs#2294 (tracking issue: #51114).
I probably should do a few more things before this can be merged:
- [x] Add tests (added basic tests, more advanced tests could be done in the future?)
- [x] Add lint for exhaustive if-let guard (comparable to normal if-let statements)
- [x] Fix clippy
However since this is a nightly feature maybe it's fine to land this and do those steps in follow-up PRs.
Thanks a lot `@matthewjasper` ❤️ for helping me with lowering to MIR! Would you be interested in reviewing this?
r? `@ghost` for now
