Initial support for aarch64-linux-android (#18920)
- Add new configuration files
- Modify some options to compile & link succesfully.
(PIE, disable tls on jemalloc, modify some external function linkage, ..)
- To build, refer to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/wiki/Doc-building-for-android.
(tested with platform=21 and toolchain=aarch64-linux-android-4.9)
fmt::Show is for debugging, and can and should be implemented for
all public types. This trait is used with `{:?}` syntax. There still
exists #[derive(Show)].
fmt::String is for types that faithfully be represented as a String.
Because of this, there is no way to derive fmt::String, all
implementations must be purposeful. It is used by the default format
syntax, `{}`.
This will break most instances of `{}`, since that now requires the type
to impl fmt::String. In most cases, replacing `{}` with `{:?}` is the
correct fix. Types that were being printed specifically for users should
receive a fmt::String implementation to fix this.

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 494][rfc] which removes the entire
`std::c_vec` module and redesigns the `std::c_str` module as `std::ffi`.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0494-c_str-and-c_vec-stability.md
The interface of the new `CString` is outlined in the linked RFC, the primary
changes being:
* The `ToCStr` trait is gone, meaning the `with_c_str` and `to_c_str` methods
are now gone. These two methods are replaced with a `CString::from_slice`
method.
* The `CString` type is now just a wrapper around `Vec<u8>` with a static
guarantee that there is a trailing nul byte with no internal nul bytes. This
means that `CString` now implements `Deref<Target = [c_char]>`, which is where
it gains most of its methods from. A few helper methods are added to acquire a
slice of `u8` instead of `c_char`, as well as including a slice with the
trailing nul byte if necessary.
* All usage of non-owned `CString` values is now done via two functions inside
of `std::ffi`, called `c_str_to_bytes` and `c_str_to_bytes_with_nul`. These
functions are now the one method used to convert a `*const c_char` to a Rust
slice of `u8`.
Many more details, including newly deprecated methods, can be found linked in
the RFC. This is a:

Closes#20444
This commit performs a second pass for stabilization over the `std::ptr` module.
The specific actions taken were:
* The `RawPtr` trait was renamed to `PtrExt`
* The `RawMutPtr` trait was renamed to `MutPtrExt`
* The module name `ptr` is now stable.
* These functions were all marked `#[stable]` with no modification:
* `null`
* `null_mut`
* `swap`
* `replace`
* `read`
* `write`
* `PtrExt::is_null`
* `PtrExt::offset`
* These functions remain unstable:
* `as_ref`, `as_mut` - the return value of an `Option` is not fully expressive
as null isn't the only bad value, and it's unclear
whether we want to commit to these functions at this
time. The reference/lifetime semantics as written are
also problematic in how they encourage arbitrary
lifetimes.
* `zero_memory` - This function is currently not used at all in the
distribution, and in general it plays a broader role in the
"working with unsafe pointers" story. This story is not yet
fully developed, so at this time the function remains
unstable for now.
* `read_and_zero` - This function remains unstable for largely the same
reasons as `zero_memory`.
* These functions are now all deprecated:
* `PtrExt::null` - call `ptr::null` or `ptr::null_mut` instead.
* `PtrExt::to_uint` - use an `as` expression instead.
* `PtrExt::is_not_null` - use `!p.is_null()` instead.
This commit is part of a series that introduces a `std::thread` API to
replace `std::task`.
In the new API, `spawn` returns a `JoinGuard`, which by default will
join the spawned thread when dropped. It can also be used to join
explicitly at any time, returning the thread's result. Alternatively,
the spawned thread can be explicitly detached (so no join takes place).
As part of this change, Rust processes now terminate when the main
thread exits, even if other detached threads are still running, moving
Rust closer to standard threading models. This new behavior may break code
that was relying on the previously implicit join-all.
In addition to the above, the new thread API also offers some built-in
support for building blocking abstractions in user space; see the module
doc for details.
Closes#18000
[breaking-change]
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.
