Because tiny CGUs make compilation less efficient *and* result in worse
generated code.
We don't do this when the number of CGUs is explicitly given, because
there are times when the requested number is very important, as
described in some comments within the commit. So the commit also
introduces a `CodegenUnits` type that distinguishes between default
values and user-specified values.
This change has a roughly neutral effect on walltimes across the
rustc-perf benchmarks; there are some speedups and some slowdowns. But
it has significant wins for most other metrics on numerous benchmarks,
including instruction counts, cycles, binary size, and max-rss. It also
reduces parallelism, which is good for reducing jobserver competition
when multiple rustc processes are running at the same time. It's smaller
benchmarks that benefit the most; larger benchmarks already have CGUs
that are all larger than the minimum size.
Here are some example before/after CGU sizes for opt builds.
- html5ever
- CGUs: 16, mean size: 1196.1, sizes: [3908, 2992, 1706, 1652, 1572,
1136, 1045, 948, 946, 938, 579, 471, 443, 327, 286, 189]
- CGUs: 4, mean size: 4396.0, sizes: [6706, 3908, 3490, 3480]
- libc
- CGUs: 12, mean size: 35.3, sizes: [163, 93, 58, 53, 37, 8, 2 (x6)]
- CGUs: 1, mean size: 424.0, sizes: [424]
- tt-muncher
- CGUs: 5, mean size: 1819.4, sizes: [8508, 350, 198, 34, 7]
- CGUs: 1, mean size: 9075.0, sizes: [9075]
Note that CGUs of size 100,000+ aren't unusual in larger programs.
Write to stdout if `-` is given as output file
With this PR, if `-o -` or `--emit KIND=-` is provided, output will be written to stdout instead. Binary output (those of type `obj`, `llvm-bc`, `link` and `metadata`) being written this way will result in an error unless stdout is not a tty. Multiple output types going to stdout will trigger an error too, as they will all be mixded together.
This implements https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/431
The idea behind the changes is to introduce an `OutFileName` enum that represents the output - be it a real path or stdout - and to use this enum along the code paths that handle different output types.
Force all native libraries to be statically linked when linking a static binary
Previously, `#[link]` without an explicit `kind = "static"` would confuse the linker and end up producing a dynamically linked library because of the `-Bdynamic` flag. However this binary would not work correctly anyways since it was linked with startup code for a static binary.
This PR solves this by forcing all native libraries to be statically linked when the output is a static binary that cannot link to dynamic libraries anyways.

Improved std support for ps vita target
Fixed a couple of things in std support for ps vita via Vita SDK newlib oss implementation:
- Added missing hardware features to target spec
- Compile in thumb by default (newlib is also compiled in thumb)
- Fixed fs calls. Vita newlib has a not-very-posix dirent. Also vita does not expose inodes, it's stubbed as 0 in stat, and I'm stubbing it here for dirent (because vita newlibs's dirent doesn't even have that field)
- Enabled signal handlers for panic unwinding
- Dropped static link requirement from the platform support md. Also, rearranged sections to better stick with the template.
If `-o -` or `--emit KIND=-` is provided, output will be written
to stdout instead. Binary output (`obj`, `llvm-bc`, `link` and
`metadata`) being written this way will result in an error unless
stdout is not a tty. Multiple output types going to stdout will
trigger an error too, as they will all be mixded together.
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`.
[SafeStack]: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/SafeStack.html
Only updated `exploit-mitigations.md` to reflect that the option exists. Removed the alternatives
mentioned as they are not actually implemented yet.
As this is an unstable feature, should it be added to `unstable-book` also? I didn't do that because
I couldn't find the tracking issue for it. (There should be one to track stabilization of the
feature.)
STD support for PSVita
This PR adds std support for `armv7-sony-vita-newlibeabihf` target.
The work here is fairly similar to #95897, just for a different target platform.
This depends on the following pull requests:
rust-lang/backtrace-rs#523rust-lang/libc#3209
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 support for the x86_64h-apple-darwin target
See https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/599 for MCP.
r? compiler-team
CC `@BlackHoleFox` who recently overhauled the apple target code in `rustc-target`.
## Target Support Checklist
> - A tier 3 target must have a designated developer or developers (the "target
> maintainers") on record to be CCed when issues arise regarding the target.
> (The mechanism to track and CC such developers may evolve over time.)
I'm the designated developer.
> - Targets must use naming consistent with any existing targets; for instance, a
> target for the same CPU or OS as an existing Rust target should use the same
> name for that CPU or OS. Targets should normally use the same names and
> naming conventions as used elsewhere in the broader ecosystem beyond Rust
> (such as in other toolchains), unless they have a very good reason to
> diverge. Changing the name of a target can be highly disruptive, especially
> once the target reaches a higher tier, so getting the name right is important
> even for a tier 3 target.
This uses the same naming conventions used for the other macOS targets (`-apple-darwin`), combined with the convention used by LLVM for the `x86_64h` targets. LLVM's convention matches the architecture name used when invoking various tools such as `lipo`, `arch`, and (IMO) there's not really a compelling reason to depart from it.
> - Target names should not introduce undue confusion or ambiguity unless
> absolutely necessary to maintain ecosystem compatibility. For example, if
> the name of the target makes people extremely likely to form incorrect
> beliefs about what it targets, the name should be changed or augmented to
> disambiguate it.
I don't think this is especially likely, although I suppose someone could mistake it for `x86_64-apple-darwin`.
> - If possible, use only letters, numbers, dashes and underscores for the name.
> Periods (`.`) are known to cause issues in Cargo.
👍

> create legal issues or impose onerous legal terms for the Rust project or for

It does not.
> - Anything added to the Rust repository must be under the standard Rust
> license (`MIT OR Apache-2.0`).
It is.
> - The target must not cause the Rust tools or libraries built for any other
> host (even when supporting cross-compilation to the target) to depend

There are no new dependencies that don't also apply to `x86_64-apple-darwin`.
> - Compiling, linking, and emitting functional binaries, libraries, or other
> code for the target (whether hosted on the target itself or cross-compiling
> from another target) must not depend on proprietary (non-FOSS) libraries.
> Host tools built for the target itself may depend on the ordinary runtime

> built for the target, but those libraries must not be required for code
> generation for the target; cross-compilation to the target must not require
> such libraries at all. For instance, `rustc` built for the target may
> depend on a common proprietary C runtime library or console output library,
> but must not depend on a proprietary code generation library or code
> optimization library. Rust's license permits such combinations, but the
> Rust project has no interest in maintaining such combinations within the
> scope of Rust itself, even at tier 3.
This has the same requirements as the other macOS targets (e.g. `x86_64-apple-darwin` and similar).
> - "onerous" here is an intentionally subjective term. At a minimum, "onerous"
> legal/licensing terms include but are *not* limited to: non-disclosure

No change here.

The standard library tests seem to pass.

Documentation is provided.

Noted. This target is nearly identical to `x86_64-apple-darwin`, so this is
unlikely to cause issues anyway.

Correct default value for default-linker-libraries
This setting is false by default according to rustc code here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/compiler/rustc_session/src/options.rs#L1236
I tested on a project and confirmed the behavior described. First, with no value, the `-nodefaultlibs` linker flag is present. Setting this to false has no effect, as well. The linker flag still appears. Setting it to true removes the linker flag as expected.
Initial support for loongarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
Hi, We hope to add a new port in rust for LoongArch.
LoongArch intro
LoongArch is a RISC style ISA which is independently designed by Loongson
Technology in China. It is divided into two versions, the 32-bit version (LA32)
and the 64-bit version (LA64). LA64 applications have application-level
backward binary compatibility with LA32 applications. LoongArch is composed of
a basic part (Loongson Base) and an expanded part. The expansion part includes
Loongson Binary Translation (LBT), Loongson VirtualiZation (LVZ), Loongson SIMD
EXtension (LSX) and Loongson Advanced SIMD EXtension(LASX).
Currently the LA464 processor core supports LoongArch ISA and the Loongson
3A5000 processor integrates 4 64-bit LA464 cores. LA464 is a four-issue 64-bit
high-performance processor core. It can be used as a single core for high-end
embedded and desktop applications, or as a basic processor core to form an
on-chip multi-core system for server and high-performance machine applications.

Since last year, we have locally adapted two versions of rust, rust1.41 and rust1.57, and completed the test locally.
I'm not sure if I'm submitting all the patches at once, so I split up the patches and here's one of the commits
Add tier 3 no_std x86 support for QNX Neutrino RTOS, version 7.0
This PR adds the target `i586-pc-nto-qnx700`, which targets QNX Neutrino RTOS version 7.0 on x86 32-bit targets.
cc: `@flba-eb` `@gh-tr`
This target falls under the umbrella of Tier 3 QNX Neutrino RTOS support documented in `nto-qnx.md` and previously started with #102701.
Switch to LLD as default linker for {arm,thumb}v4t-none-eabi
The LLVM 16 update brought ARMv4t support to LLD. We should use it by default so users don't need to install an external linker.
cc `@Lokathor`
`-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.
Support for Fuchsia RISC-V target
Fuchsia is in the process of implementing the RISC-V support. This change implements the minimal Rust compiler support. The support for building runtime libraries will be implemented in follow up changes once Fuchsia SDK has the RISC-V support.
Remove `llvm.skip-rebuild` option
This was added to in 2019 to speed up rebuild times when LLVM was modified. Now that download-ci-llvm exists, I don't think it makes sense to support an unsound option like this that can lead to miscompiles; and the code cleanup is nice too.
r? `@Mark-Simulacrum` cc `@varkor` #65612
Fuchsia is in the process of implementing the RISC-V support. This
change implements the minimal Rust compiler support. The support for
building runtime libraries will be implemented in follow up changes
once Fuchsia SDK has the RISC-V support.
