discuss deadlocks in the std::io::pipe() example
I think it's important to discuss deadlocks in examples of how to use pipes. The current example does include an explicit `drop()`, but it also implicitly relies on the fact that the `Command` object is temporary, so that it drops its copy of `pong_tx`. This sort of thing tends to trip people up when they use pipes for the first time. I might've gone overboard with the comments in this version, but I'm curious what folks think.
Update std doctests for android
This updates some doctests that fail to run on android. We will soon be supporting cross-compiled doctests, and the `arm-android` job fails to run these tests.
In summary:
- Android re-exports some traits from linux under a different path.
- Android doesn't seem to have common unix utilities like `true`, `false`, or `whoami`, so these are disabled.
limit impls of `VaArgSafe` to just types that are actually safe
tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44930
Retrieving 8- or 16-bit integer arguments from a `VaList` is not safe, because such types are subject to upcasting. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/61275#issuecomment-2193942535 for more detail.
This PR also makes the instances of `VaArgSafe` visible in the documentation, and uses a private sealed trait to make sure users cannot create additional impls of `VaArgSafe`, which would almost certainly cause UB.
r? `@workingjubilee`
8 and 16-bit integers are subject to upcasting in C, and hence are not reliably safe. users should perform their own casting and deal with the consequences
Add `std::os::unix::process::CommandExt::chroot` to safely chroot a child process
This adds a `chroot` method to the `CommandExt` extension trait for the
`Command` builder, to set a directory to chroot into. This will chroot
the child process into that directory right before calling chdir for the
`Command`'s working directory.
To avoid allowing a process to have a working directory outside of the
chroot, if the `Command` does not yet have a working directory set,
`chroot` will set its working directory to "/".

use `Self` alias in self types rather than manually substituting it
Of the rougly 145 uses of `self: Ty` in the standard library, 5 of them don't use `Self` but instead choose to manually "substitute" the `impl`'s self type into the type.
This leads to weird behavior sometimes (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/140611#issuecomment-2883761300) -- **to be clear**, none of these usages actually trigger any bugs, but it's possible that they may break in the future (or at least lead to lints), so let's just "fix" them proactively.

`Command` builder, to set a directory to chroot into. This will chroot
the child process into that directory right before calling chdir for the
`Command`'s working directory.

chroot, if the `Command` does not yet have a working directory set,
`chroot` will set its working directory to "/".
When these functions were added in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/138087
It made a relatively common pattern for emulating
these functions using an extension trait (which
internally uses `libm`) much more fragile.
If `core::f32` happened to be imported by the user
(to access a constant, say), then that import in
the module namespace would take precedence over
`f32` in the type namespace for resolving these
functions, running headfirst into the stability
attribute.
We ran into this in Color -
https://github.com/linebender/color - and chose to
release the remedial 0.3.1 and 0.2.4, to allow
downstream crates to build on `docs.rs`.
As these methods are perma-unstable, moving them
into a new module should not have any long-term
concerns, and ensures that this breakage doesn't
adversely impact anyone else.
Replace `try_reserve_exact` with `try_with_capacity` in `std::fs::read`
This change restores the previous behavior prior to #117925. That PR was made to handle OOM errors that turn into a panic with `Vec::with_capacity`. `try_reserve_exact` was used for that since there was no `try_with_capacity` method at the time. It was added later in #120504. I think it'd a better fit here.
fix data race in ReentrantLock fallback for targets without 64bit atomics
See [Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/269128-miri/topic/reentrant.20lock.20failure.20on.20musl) for details: the address used to identify a thread might get lazily allocated inside `tls_addr()`, so if we call that *after* doing the `tls_addr.load()` it is too late to establish synchronization with prior threads that used the same address -- the `load()` thus races with the `store()` by that prior thread, and might hence see outdated values, and then the entire logic breaks down.

std: stop using TLS in signal handler
TLS is not async-signal-safe, making its use in the signal handler used to detect stack overflows unsound (c.f. #133698). POSIX however lists two thread-specific identifiers that can be obtained in a signal handler: the current `pthread_t` and the address of `errno`. Since `pthread_equal` is not AS-safe, `pthread_t` should be considered opaque, so for our purposes, `&errno` is the only option. This however works nicely: we can use the address as a key into a map that stores information for each thread. This PR uses a `BTreeMap` protected by a spin lock to hold the guard page address and thread name and thus fixes#133698.
Remove #![feature(let_chains)] from library and src/librustdoc
PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/132833 has stabilized the `let_chains` feature. This PR removes the last occurences from the library, the compiler, and librustdoc (also because #140887 missed the conditional in one of the crates as it was behind the "rustc" feature).
We keep `core` as exercise for the future as updating it is non-trivial (see PR thread).
Initial implementation of `core_float_math`
Since [1], `compiler-builtins` makes a certain set of math symbols
weakly available on all platforms. This means we can begin exposing some
of the related functions in `core`, so begin this process here.
It is not possible to provide inherent methods in both `core` and `std`
while giving them different stability gates, so standalone functions are
added instead. This provides a way to experiment with the functionality
while unstable; once it is time to stabilize, they can be converted to
inherent.
For `f16` and `f128`, everything is unstable so we can move the inherent
methods.
The following are included to start:
* floor
* ceil
* round
* round_ties_even
* trunc
* fract
* mul_add
* div_euclid
* rem_euclid
* powi
* sqrt
* abs_sub
* cbrt
These mirror the set of functions that we have in `compiler-builtins`
since [1], with the exception of `powi` that has been there longer.
Details for each of the changes is in the commit messages.

deduplicate abort implementations
Currently, the code for process aborts is duplicated across `panic_abort` and `std`. This PR uses `#[rustc_std_internal_symbol]` to make the `std` implementation available to `panic_abort` via the linker, thereby deduplicating the code.

This updates some doctests that fail to run on android. We will soon be

run these tests.
In summary:

- Android doesn't seem to have common unix utilities like `true`,
`false`, or `whoami`, so these are disabled.
The previous commit moved all test files from `std` to `core` so git
understands the move. Not all functionality is actually testable in
`core`, however, so perform move the relevant portions back. Changes
from inherent to module methods is also done since this is the form of
math operations available in `core` (as `core_float_math`).
Many float-related tests in `std` only depend on `core`, so move the
tests there. This also allows us to verify functions from
`core_float_math`.
Since the majority of test files need to be moved to `coretests`, move
the files here without any cleanup; this is done in a followup commit.
This makes git history slightly cleaner, but coretests will not build
immediately after this commit.

`DerefMut` is instantly stable, as a trait impl. That means this needs an FCP.
