This option was introduced three years ago, but it's never been
meaningfully used, and `default` is the only acceptable value.
Also, I think the `Partition` trait presents an interface that is too
closely tied to the existing strategy and would probably be wrong for
other strategies. (My rule of thumb is to not make something generic
until there are at least two instances of it, to avoid this kind of
problem.)
Also, I don't think providing multiple partitioning strategies to the
user is a good idea, because the compiler already has enough obscure
knobs.
This commit removes the option, along with the `Partition` trait, and
the `Partitioner` and `DefaultPartitioning` types. I left the existing
code in `compiler/rustc_monomorphize/src/partitioning/default.rs`,
though I could be persuaded that moving it into
`compiler/rustc_monomorphize/src/partitioning/mod.rs` is better.
Adds support for LLVM [SafeStack] which provides backward edge control
flow protection by separating the stack into two parts: data which is
only accessed in provable safe ways is allocated on the normal stack
(the "safe stack") and all other data is placed in a separate allocation
(the "unsafe stack").
SafeStack support is enabled by passing `-Zsanitizer=safestack`.

Error message all end up passing into a function as an `impl
Into<{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage>`. If an error message is creatd as
`&format("...")` that means we allocate a string (in the `format!`
call), then take a reference, and then clone (allocating again) the
reference to produce the `{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, which is silly.
This commit removes the leading `&` from a lot of these cases. This
means the original `String` is moved into the
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, avoiding the double allocations. This
requires changing some function argument types from `&str` to `String`
(when all arguments are `String`) or `impl
Into<{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage>` (when some arguments are `String` and
some are `&str`).
Support linking to rust dylib with --crate-type staticlib
This allows for example dynamically linking libstd, while statically linking the user crate into an executable or C dynamic library. For this two unstable flags (`-Z staticlib-allow-rdylib-deps` and `-Z staticlib-prefer-dynamic`) are introduced. Without the former you get an error. The latter is the equivalent to `-C prefer-dynamic` for the staticlib crate type to indicate that dynamically linking is preferred when both options are available, like for libstd. Care must be taken to ensure that no crate ends up being merged into two distinct staticlibs that are linked together. Doing so will cause a linker error at best and undefined behavior at worst. In addition two distinct staticlibs compiled by different rustc may not be combined under any circumstances due to some rustc private symbols not being mangled.
To successfully link a staticlib, `--print native-static-libs` can be used while compiling to ask rustc for the linker flags necessary when linking the staticlib. This is an existing flag which previously only listed native libraries. It has been extended to list rust dylibs too. Trying to locate libstd yourself to link against it is not supported and may break if for example the libstd of multiple rustc versions are put in the same directory.
For an example on how to use this see the `src/test/run-make-fulldeps/staticlib-dylib-linkage/` test.
Stabilize raw-dylib, link_ordinal, import_name_type and -Cdlltool
This stabilizes the `raw-dylib` feature (#58713) for all architectures (i.e., `x86` as it is already stable for all other architectures).
Changes:
* Permit the use of the `raw-dylib` link kind for x86, the `link_ordinal` attribute and the `import_name_type` key for the `link` attribute.
* Mark the `raw_dylib` feature as stable.
* Stabilized the `-Zdlltool` argument as `-Cdlltool`.
* Note the path to `dlltool` if invoking it failed (we don't need to do this if `dlltool` returns an error since it prints its path in the error message).
* Adds tests for `-Cdlltool`.
* Adds tests for being unable to find the dlltool executable, and dlltool failing.
* Fixes a bug where we were checking the exit code of dlltool to see if it failed, but dlltool always returns 0 (indicating success), so instead we need to check if anything was written to `stderr`.
NOTE: As previously noted (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104218#issuecomment-1315895618) using dlltool within rustc is temporary, but this is not the first time that Rust has added a temporary tool use and argument: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104218#issuecomment-1318720482
Big thanks to ``````@tbu-`````` for the first version of this PR (#104218)
Add cross-language LLVM CFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds cross-language LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support to the Rust compiler by adding the `-Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers` option to be used with Clang `-fsanitize-cfi-icall-normalize-integers` for normalizing integer types (see https://reviews.llvm.org/D139395).
It provides forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code share the same virtual address space). For more information about LLVM CFI and cross-language LLVM CFI support for the Rust compiler, see design document in the tracking issue #89653.
Cross-language LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and -Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers, and requires proper (i.e., non-rustc) LTO (i.e., -Clinker-plugin-lto).
Thank you again, ``@bjorn3,`` ``@nikic,`` ``@samitolvanen,`` and the Rust community for all the help!

Report allocation errors as panics
OOM is now reported as a panic but with a custom payload type (`AllocErrorPanicPayload`) which holds the layout that was passed to `handle_alloc_error`.
This should be review one commit at a time:
- The first commit adds `AllocErrorPanicPayload` and changes allocation errors to always be reported as panics.
- The second commit removes `#[alloc_error_handler]` and the `alloc_error_hook` API.

`-Cdebuginfo=1` was never line tables only and
can't be due to backwards compatibility issues.
This was clarified and an option for line tables only
was added. Additionally an option for line info
directives only was added, which is well needed for
some targets. The debug info options should now
behave the same as clang's debug info options.
`-Zlink-directives=no` will ignored `#[link]` directives while compiling a
crate, so nothing is emitted into the crate's metadata. The assumption is
that the build system already knows about the crate's native dependencies
and can provide them at link time without these directives.
This is another way to address issue # #70093, which is currently addressed
by `-Zlink-native-libraries` (implemented in #70095). The latter is
implemented at link time, which has the effect of ignoring `#[link]`
in *every* crate. This makes it a very large hammer as it requires all
native dependencies to be known to the build system to be at all usable,
including those in sysroot libraries. I think this means its effectively
unused, and definitely under-used.
Being able to control this on a crate-by-crate basis should make it much
easier to apply when needed.
I'm not sure if we need both mechanisms, but we can decide that later.
Add `kernel-address` sanitizer support for freestanding targets
This PR adds support for KASan (kernel address sanitizer) instrumentation in freestanding targets. I included the minimal set of `x86_64-unknown-none`, `riscv64{imac, gc}-unknown-none-elf`, and `aarch64-unknown-none` but there's likely other targets it can be added to. (`linux_kernel_base.rs`?) KASan uses the address sanitizer attributes but has the `CompileKernel` parameter set to `true` in the pass creation.
Most tests involving save-analysis were removed, but I kept a few where
the `-Zsave-analysis` was an add-on to the main thing being tested,
rather than the main thing being tested.
For `x.py install`, the `rust-analysis` target has been removed.
For `x.py dist`, the `rust-analysis` target has been kept in a
degenerate form: it just produces a single file `reduced.json`
indicating that save-analysis has been removed. This is necessary for
rustup to keep working.
Closes#43606.
Introduce `-Zterminal-urls` to use OSC8 for error codes
Terminals supporting the OSC8 Hyperlink Extension can support inline anchors where the text is user defineable but clicking on it opens a browser to a specified URLs, just like `<a href="URL">` does in HTML.

Resolve documentation links in rustc and store the results in metadata
This PR implements MCP https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/584.
Doc links are now resolved in rustc and stored into metadata, so rustdoc simply retrieves them through a query (local or extern),
Code that is no longer used is removed, and some code that no longer needs to be public is privatized.
The removed code includes resolver cloning, so this PR fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/83761.

Recognize all bells and whistles that LLVM's XRay pass is capable of.
The always/never settings are a bit dumb without attributes but they're
still there. The default instruction count is chosen by the compiler,
not LLVM pass. We'll do it later.
Use stable metric for const eval limit instead of current terminator-based logic
This patch adds a `MirPass` that inserts a new MIR instruction `ConstEvalCounter` to any loops and function calls in the CFG. This instruction is used during Const Eval to count against the `const_eval_limit`, and emit the `StepLimitReached` error, replacing the current logic which uses Terminators only.
The new method of counting loops and function calls should be more stable across compiler versions (i.e., not cause crates that compiled successfully before, to no longer compile when changes to the MIR generation/optimization are made).
Also see: #103877
- Remove logic that limits const eval based on terminators, and use the
stable metric instead (back edges + fn calls)
- Add unstable flag `tiny-const-eval-limit` to add UI tests that do not
have to go up to the regular 2M step limit
Disable "split dwarf inlining" by default.
This matches clang's behavior and makes split-debuginfo behave as expected (i.e. actually split the debug info).
Fixes#106592
