This makes rustc simply return an exit code from main rather than calling `std::process::exit` with an exit code. This means that drops run normally and the process exits cleanly.
Also instead of hard coding success and failure codes this uses `ExitCode::SUCCESS` and `ExitCode::FAILURE`, which in turn effectively uses `libc::EXIT_SUCCESS` and `libc::EXIT_FAILURE` (via std). These are `0` and `1` respectively for all currently supported host platforms so it doesn't actually change the exit code.
Similar to how the alignment is already checked, this adds a check
for null pointer dereferences in debug mode. It is implemented similarly
to the alignment check as a MirPass.
This is related to a 2025H1 project goal for better UB checks in debug
mode: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-project-goals/pull/177.
It was inconsistently done (sometimes even within a single function) and
most of the rest of the compiler uses fatal errors instead, which need
to be caught using catch_with_exit_code anyway. Using fatal errors
instead of ErrorGuaranteed everywhere in the driver simplifies things a
bit.
Existing names for values of this type are `sess`, `parse_sess`,
`parse_session`, and `ps`. `sess` is particularly annoying because
that's also used for `Session` values, which are often co-located, and
it can be difficult to know which type a value named `sess` refers to.
(That annoyance is the main motivation for this change.) `psess` is nice
and short, which is good for a name used this much.
The commit also renames some `parse_sess_created` values as
`psess_created`.
fixes#117448
For example unnecessary imports in std::prelude that can be eliminated:
```rust
use std::option::Option::Some;//~ WARNING the item `Some` is imported redundantly
use std::option::Option::None; //~ WARNING the item `None` is imported redundantly
```
That is, change `diagnostic_outside_of_impl` and
`untranslatable_diagnostic` from `allow` to `deny`, because more than
half of the compiler has be converted to use translated diagnostics.
This commit removes more `deny` attributes than it adds `allow`
attributes, which proves that this change is warranted.
Stop telling people to submit bugs for internal feature ICEs
This keeps track of usage of internal features, and changes the message to instead tell them that using internal features is not supported.
I thought about several ways to do this but now used the explicit threading of an `Arc<AtomicBool>` through `Session`. This is not exactly incremental-safe, but this is fine, as this is set during macro expansion, which is pre-incremental, and also only affects the output of ICEs, at which point incremental correctness doesn't matter much anyways.
