These submodules were previously updated in python because Cargo gives a hard error if toml files
are missing from the workspace:
```
error: failed to load manifest for workspace member `/home/jnelson/rust-lang/rust/src/tools/rls`
Caused by:
failed to read `/home/jnelson/rust-lang/rust/src/tools/rls/Cargo.toml`
Caused by:
No such file or directory (os error 2)
failed to run: /home/jnelson/rust-lang/rust/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage0/bin/cargo build --manifest-path /home/jnelson/rust-lang/rust/src/bootstrap/Cargo.toml
```
However, bootstrap doesn't actually need to be part of the workspace.
Remove it so we can move submodule handling fully to Rust, avoiding duplicate code between Rust and Python.
Note that this does break `cargo run`; it has to be `cd src/bootstrap && cargo run` now.
Given that we're planning to make the main entrypoint a shell script (or rust binary),
I think this is a good tradeoff for reduced complexity in bootstrap.py.
Rather than compiling rustbuild and all its dependencies with
`debuginfo=2`, this compiles dependencies without debuginfo and
rustbuild with `debuginfo=1`. On my laptop, this brings compile times
down from ~1:20 to ~1:05.
The wrapper is installed as `ld` and `ld64` in the `lib\rustlib\<host_target>\bin\gcc-ld`
directory and its sole purpose is to invoke `rust-lld` in the parent directory with
the correct flavor.
Libgccjit codegen
This PR introduces a subtree for a gcc-based codegen backend to the repository, per decision in https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/442. We do not yet expect to ship this backend on nightly or run tests in CI, but we do verify that the backend checks (i.e., `cargo check`) successfully.
Work is expected to progress primarily in https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc_codegen_gcc, with semi-regular upstreaming, like with other subtrees.
- Add clippy_dev to the rust workspace
Before, it would give an error that it wasn't either included or
excluded from the workspace:
```
error: current package believes it's in a workspace when it's not:
current: /home/joshua/rustc/src/tools/clippy/clippy_dev/Cargo.toml
workspace: /home/joshua/rustc/Cargo.toml
this may be fixable by adding `src/tools/clippy/clippy_dev` to the `workspace.members` array of the manifest located at: /home/joshua/rustc/Cargo.toml
Alternatively, to keep it out of the workspace, add the package to the `workspace.exclude` array, or add an empty `[workspace]` table to the package's manifest.
```
- Change clippy's copy of compiletest not to special-case
rust-lang/rust. Using OUT_DIR confused `clippy_dev` and it couldn't find
the test outputs. This is one of the reasons why `cargo dev bless` used
to silently do nothing (the others were that `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` and
`PROFILE` weren't set appropriately).
- Run clippy_dev on test failure
I tested this by removing a couple lines from a stderr file, and they
were correctly replaced.
- Fix clippy_dev warnings
Add a tool to run `x.py` from any subdirectory
This adds a binary called `x` in `src/tools/x`. All it does is check the current directory and its ancestors for a file called `x.py`, and if it finds one, runs it.
By installing x, you can easily run `x.py` from any subdirectory, and only need to type `x`.
It can be installed with `cargo install --path src/tools/x`
This is a copy of a [binary I've been using myself when working on rust](https://github.com/casey/bootstrap), currently published to crates.io as `bootstrap`.
It could be changed to avoid indirecting through `x.py`, and instead call the bootstrap module directly. However, this seemed like the simplest thing possible, and won't break if the details of how the bootstrap module is invoked change.
This adds a binary called `x` in `src/tools/x`. All it does is check the
current directory and its ancestors for a file called `x.py`, and if it

By installing x, you can easily `x.py` from any subdirectory.
It can be installed globally with `cargo install --path src/tools/x`
This commit is a proof-of-concept for switching the standard library's
backtrace symbolication mechanism on most platforms from libbacktrace to
gimli. The standard library's support for `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` requires
in-process parsing of object files and DWARF debug information to
interpret it and print the filename/line number of stack frames as part
of a backtrace.
Historically this support in the standard library has come from a
library called "libbacktrace". The libbacktrace library seems to have
been extracted from gcc at some point and is written in C. We've had a
lot of issues with libbacktrace over time, unfortunately, though. The
library does not appear to be actively maintained since we've had
patches sit for months-to-years without comments. We have discovered a
good number of soundness issues with the library itself, both when
parsing valid DWARF as well as invalid DWARF. This is enough of an issue
that the libs team has previously decided that we cannot feed untrusted
inputs to libbacktrace. This also doesn't take into account the
portability of libbacktrace which has been difficult to manage and
maintain over time. While possible there are lots of exceptions and it's
the main C dependency of the standard library right now.
For years it's been the desire to switch over to a Rust-based solution
for symbolicating backtraces. It's been assumed that we'll be using the
Gimli family of crates for this purpose, which are targeted at safely
and efficiently parsing DWARF debug information. I've been working
recently to shore up the Gimli support in the `backtrace` crate. As of a
few weeks ago the `backtrace` crate, by default, uses Gimli when loaded
from crates.io. This transition has gone well enough that I figured it
was time to start talking seriously about this change to the standard
library.
This commit is a preview of what's probably the best way to integrate
the `backtrace` crate into the standard library with the Gimli feature
turned on. While today it's used as a crates.io dependency, this commit
switches the `backtrace` crate to a submodule of this repository which
will need to be updated manually. This is not done lightly, but is
thought to be the best solution. The primary reason for this is that the
`backtrace` crate needs to do some pretty nontrivial filesystem
interactions to locate debug information. Working without `std::fs` is
not an option, and while it might be possible to do some sort of
trait-based solution when prototyped it was found to be too unergonomic.
Using a submodule allows the `backtrace` crate to build as a submodule
of the `std` crate itself, enabling it to use `std::fs` and such.
Otherwise this adds new dependencies to the standard library. This step
requires extra attention because this means that these crates are now
going to be included with all Rust programs by default. It's important
to note, however, that we're already shipping libbacktrace with all Rust
programs by default and it has a bunch of C code implementing all of
this internally anyway, so we're basically already switching
already-shipping functionality to Rust from C.
* `object` - this crate is used to parse object file headers and
contents. Very low-level support is used from this crate and almost
all of it is disabled. Largely we're just using struct definitions as
well as convenience methods internally to read bytes and such.
* `addr2line` - this is the main meat of the implementation for
symbolication. This crate depends on `gimli` for DWARF parsing and
then provides interfaces needed by the `backtrace` crate to turn an
address into a filename / line number. This crate is actually pretty
small (fits in a single file almost!) and mirrors most of what
`dwarf.c` does for libbacktrace.
* `miniz_oxide` - the libbacktrace crate transparently handles
compressed debug information which is compressed with zlib. This crate
is used to decompress compressed debug sections.
* `gimli` - not actually used directly, but a dependency of `addr2line`.
* `adler32`- not used directly either, but a dependency of
`miniz_oxide`.
The goal of this change is to improve the safety of backtrace
symbolication in the standard library, especially in the face of
possibly malformed DWARF debug information. Even to this day we're still
seeing segfaults in libbacktrace which could possibly become security
vulnerabilities. This change should almost entirely eliminate this
possibility whilc also paving the way forward to adding more features
like split debug information.
Some references for those interested are:
* Original addition of libbacktrace - #12602
* OOM with libbacktrace - #24231
* Backtrace failure due to use of uninitialized value - #28447
* Possibility to feed untrusted data to libbacktrace - #21889
* Soundness fix for libbacktrace - #33729
* Crash in libbacktrace - #39468
* Support for macOS, never merged - ianlancetaylor/libbacktrace#2
* Performance issues with libbacktrace - #29293, #37477
* Update procedure is quite complicated due to how many patches we
need to carry - #50955
* Libbacktrace doesn't work on MinGW with dynamic libs - #71060
* Segfault in libbacktrace on macOS - #71397
Switching to Rust will not make us immune to all of these issues. The
crashes are expected to go away, but correctness and performance may
still have bugs arise. The gimli and `backtrace` crates, however, are
actively maintained unlike libbacktrace, so this should enable us to at
least efficiently apply fixes as situations come up.
Generating the coverage map
@tmandry @wesleywiser
rustc now generates the coverage map and can support (limited)
coverage report generation, at the function level.
Example commands to generate a coverage report:
```shell
$ BUILD=$HOME/rust/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
$ $BUILD/stage1/bin/rustc -Zinstrument-coverage \
$HOME/rust/src/test/run-make-fulldeps/instrument-coverage/main.rs
$ LLVM_PROFILE_FILE="main.profraw" ./main
called
$ $BUILD/llvm/bin/llvm-profdata merge -sparse main.profraw -o main.profdata
$ $BUILD/llvm/bin/llvm-cov show --instr-profile=main.profdata main
```

This commit moves the compiler-builtins-specific build logic from
`src/bootstrap/bin/rustc.rs` into the workspace `Cargo.toml`'s
`[profile]` configuration. Now that rust-lang/cargo#7253 is fixed we can
ensure that Cargo knows about debug assertions settings, and it can also
be configured to specifically disable debug assertions unconditionally
for compiler-builtins. This should improve rebuild logic when
debug-assertions settings change and also improve build-std integration
where Cargo externally now has an avenue to learn how to build
compiler-builtins as well.
