This is the ideal FileType on Windows. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
Theoretically this would fix https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/46484
The current iteration of this PR should not cause existing code to break, but instead merely improves handling around reparse points. Specifically...
* Reparse points are considered to be symbolic links if they have the name surrogate bit set. Name surrogates are reparse points that effectively act like symbolic links, redirecting you to a different directory/file. By checking for this bit instead of specific tags, we become much more general in our handling of reparse points, including those added by third parties.
* If something is a reparse point but does not have the name surrogate bit set, then we ignore the fact that it is a reparse point because it is actually a file or directory directly there, despite having additional handling by drivers due to the reparse point.
* For everything which is not a symbolic link (including non-surrogate reparse points) we report whether it is a directory or a file based on the presence of the directory attribute bit.
* Notably this still preserves invariant that when `is_symlink` returns `true`, both `is_dir` and `is_file` will return `false`. The potential for breakage was far too high.
* Adds an unstable `FileTypeExt` to allow users to determine whether a symbolic link is a directory or a file, since `FileType` by design is incapable of reporting this information.
Previously, the `guard::init()` and `guard::current()` functions were
returning a `usize` address representing the top of the stack guard,
respectively for the main thread and for spawned threads. The `SIGSEGV`
handler on `unix` targets checked if a fault was within one page below
that address, if so reporting it as a stack overflow.
Now `unix` targets report a `Range<usize>` representing the guard
memory, so it can cover arbitrary guard sizes. Non-`unix` targets which
always return `None` for guards now do so with `Option<!>`, so they
don't pay any overhead.
For `linux-gnu` in particular, the previous guard upper-bound was
`stackaddr + guardsize`, as the protected memory was *inside* the stack.
This was a glibc bug, and starting from 2.27 they are moving the guard
*past* the end of the stack. However, there's no simple way for us to
know where the guard page actually lies, so now we declare it as the
whole range of `stackaddr ± guardsize`, and any fault therein will be
called a stack overflow. This fixes#47863.
Convert warning about `*const _` to a future-compat lint
#46664 was merged before I could convert the soft warning about method lookup on `*const _` into a future-compatibility lint. This PR makes that change.

Turns out ThinLTO was internalizing this symbol and eliminating it. Worse yet if
you compiled with LTO turns out no TLS destructors would run on Windows! The
`#[used]` annotation should be a more bulletproof implementation (in the face of
LTO) of preserving this symbol all the way through in LLVM and ensuring it makes
it all the way to the linker which will take care of it.
This commit removes usage of the `libc` crate in "portable" modules like
those at the top level and `sys_common`. Instead common types like `*mut
u8` or `u32` are used instead of `*mut c_void` or `c_int` as well as
switching to platform-specific functions like `sys::strlen` instead of
`libc::strlen`.
This commit moves the `f32::cmath` and `f64::cmath` modules into the
`sys` module. Note that these are not publicly exported modules, simply
implementation details. These modules are already platform-specific with
shims on MSVC and this is mostly just a reflection of that reality. This
should also help cut down on `#[cfg]` traffic if platforms are brought on
which don't directly support these functions.
This commit removes the reexport of `EBADF_ERR` as a constant from
libstd's portability facade, instead opting for a platform-specific
function that specifically queries an `io::Error`. Not all platforms may
have a constant for this, so it makes the intent a little more clear
that a code need not be supplied, just an answer to a query.
This commit removes the `rand` crate from the standard library facade as
well as the `__rand` module in the standard library. Neither of these
were used in any meaningful way in the standard library itself. The only
need for randomness in libstd is to initialize the thread-local keys of
a `HashMap`, and that unconditionally used `OsRng` defined in the
standard library anyway.
The cruft of the `rand` crate and the extra `rand` support in the
standard library makes libstd slightly more difficult to port to new
platforms, namely WebAssembly which doesn't have any randomness at all
(without interfacing with JS). The purpose of this commit is to clarify
and streamline randomness in libstd, focusing on how it's only required
in one location, hashmap seeds.
Note that the `rand` crate out of tree has almost always been a drop-in
replacement for the `rand` crate in-tree, so any usage (accidental or
purposeful) of the crate in-tree should switch to the `rand` crate on
crates.io. This then also has the further benefit of avoiding
duplication (mostly) between the two crates!
Copy all `AsciiExt` methods to the primitive types directly in order to deprecate it later
**EDIT:** [this PR is ready now](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/44042#issuecomment-333883548). I edited this post to reflect the current status of discussion, which is (apart from code review) pretty much settled.
---
This is my current progress in order to prepare stabilization of #39658. As discussed there (and in #39659), the idea is to deprecated `AsciiExt` and copy all methods to the type directly. Apparently there isn't really a reason to have those methods in an extension trait¹.
~~This is **work in progress**: copy&pasting code while slightly modifying the documentation isn't the most exciting thing to do. Therefore I wanted to already open this WIP PR after doing basically 1/4 of the job (copying methods to `&[u8]`, `char` and `&str` is still missing) to get some feedback before I continue. Some questions possibly worth discussing:~~
1. ~~Does everyone agree that deprecating `AsciiExt` is a good idea? Does everyone agree with the goal of this PR?~~ => apparently yes
2. ~~Are my changes OK so far? Did I do something wrong?~~
3. ~~The issue of the unstable-attribute is currently set to 0. I would wait until you say "Ok" to the whole thing, then create a tracking issue and then insert the correct issue id. Is that ok?~~
4. ~~I tweaked `eq_ignore_ascii_case()`: it now takes the argument `other: u8` instead of `other: &u8`. The latter was enforced by the trait. Since we're not bound to a trait anymore, we can drop the reference, ok?~~ => I reverted this, because the interface has to match the `AsciiExt` interface exactly.
¹ ~~Could it be that we can't write `impl [u8] {}`? This might be the reason for `AsciiExt`. If that is the case: is there a good reason we can't write such an impl block? What can we do instead?~~ => we couldn't at the time this PR was opened, but Simon made it possible.

This commit updates the OS random number generator on Windows to match the
upstream implementation in the `rand` crate. First proposed in
rust-lang-nursery/rand#111 this implementation uses a "private" API of
`RtlGenRandom`. Despite the [documentation][dox] indicating this is a private
function its widespread use in Chromium and Firefox as well as [comments] from
Microsoft internally indicates that it's highly unlikely to break.
Another motivation for switching this is to also attempt to make progress
on #44911. It may be the case that this function succeeds while the previous
implementation may fail in "weird" scenarios.

make `backtrace = false` compile for windows targets.
when building for windows with `backtrace = false`, `libstd` fails to compile because some modules that use items from `sys_common::backtrace::*` are still included, even though those modules aren't used or referenced by anything.
`sys_common::backtrace` doesn't exist when the backtrace feature is turned off.
--
i've also added `#[cfg(feature = "backtrace")]` to various items that exist exclusively to support `mod backtrace` since the compilation would fail since they would be unused in a configuration with backtraces turned off.
On Windows with the NTFS filesystem, `fs::copy` would return the sum of the
lengths of all streams, which can be different from the length reported by
`metadata` and thus confusing for users unaware of this NTFS peculiarity.
This makes `fs::copy` return the same length `metadata` reports which is the
value it used to return before PR #26751. Note that alternate streams are still
copied; their length is just not included in the returned value.
This change relies on the assumption that the stream with index 1 is always the
main stream in the `CopyFileEx` callback. I could not find any official
document confirming this but empirical testing has shown this to be true,
regardless of whether the alternate stream is created before or after the main
stream.

Add the libstd-modifications needed for the L4Re target
This commit adds the needed modifications to compile the std crate for the L4 Runtime environment (L4Re).
A target for the L4Re was introduced in commit: c151220a84
In many aspects implementations for linux also apply for the L4Re microkernel.
Some uncommon characteristics had to be resolved:
* L4Re has no network funktionality
* L4Re has a maximum stacksize of 1Mb for threads
* L4Re has no uid or gid

Expose all OS-specific modules in libstd doc.
1. Uses the special `--cfg dox` configuration passed by rustbuild when running `rustdoc`. Changes the `#[cfg(platform)]` into `#[cfg(any(dox, platform))]` so that platform-specific API are visible to rustdoc.
2. Since platform-specific implementations often won't compile correctly on other platforms, `rustdoc` is changed to apply `everybody_loops` to the functions during documentation and doc-test harness.
3. Since platform-specific code are documented on all platforms now, it could confuse users who found a useful API but is non-portable. Also, their examples will be doc-tested, so must be excluded when not testing on the native platform. An undocumented attribute `#[doc(cfg(...))]` is introduced to serve the above purposed.
Fixes#24658 (Does _not_ fully implement #1998).
