This is part of the overall strategy I would like to take when approaching
issue #11165. The only two I/O objects that reasonably want to be "split" are
the network stream objects. Everything else can be "split" by just creating
another version.
The initial idea I had was the literally split the object into a reader and a
writer half, but that would just introduce lots of clutter with extra interfaces
that were a little unnnecssary, or it would return a ~Reader and a ~Writer which
means you couldn't access things like the remote peer name or local socket name.
The solution I found to be nicer was to just clone the stream itself. The clone
is just a clone of the handle, nothing fancy going on at the kernel level.
Conceptually I found this very easy to wrap my head around (everything else
supports clone()), and it solved the "split" problem at the same time.
The cloning support is pretty specific per platform/lib combination:
* native/win32 - uses some specific WSA apis to clone the SOCKET handle
* native/unix - uses dup() to get another file descriptor
* green/all - This is where things get interesting. When we support full clones
of a handle, this implies that we're allowing simultaneous writes
and reads to happen. It turns out that libuv doesn't support two
simultaneous reads or writes of the same object. It does support
*one* read and *one* write at the same time, however. Some extra
infrastructure was added to just block concurrent writers/readers
until the previous read/write operation was completed.
I've added tests to the tcp/unix modules to make sure that this functionality is
supported everywhere.
This removes @[] from the parser as well as much of the handling of it (and `@str`) from the compiler as I can find.
I've just rebased @pcwalton's (already reviewed) `@str` removal (and fixed the problems in a separate commit); the only new work is the trailing commits with my authorship.
Closes#11967
Renamed the invert() function in iter.rs to flip().
Also renamed the Invert<T> type to Flip<T>.
Some related code comments changed. Documentation that I could find has
been updated, and all the instances I could locate where the
function/type were called have been updated as well.
Major changes:
- Define temporary scopes in a syntax-based way that basically defaults
to the innermost statement or conditional block, except for in
a `let` initializer, where we default to the innermost block. Rules
are documented in the code, but not in the manual (yet).
See new test run-pass/cleanup-value-scopes.rs for examples.
- Refactors Datum to better define cleanup roles.
- Refactor cleanup scopes to not be tied to basic blocks, permitting
us to have a very large number of scopes (one per AST node).
- Introduce nascent documentation in trans/doc.rs covering datums and
cleanup in a more comprehensive way.

Unique pointers and vectors currently contain a reference counting
header when containing a managed pointer.
This `{ ref_count, type_desc, prev, next }` header is not necessary and
not a sensible foundation for tracing. It adds needless complexity to
library code and is responsible for breakage in places where the branch
has been left out.
The `borrow_offset` field can now be removed from `TyDesc` along with
the associated handling in the compiler.
Closes#9510Closes#11533
The `print!` and `println!` macros are now the preferred method of printing, and so there is no reason to export the `stdio` functions in the prelude. The functions have also been replaced by their macro counterparts in the tutorial and other documentation so that newcomers don't get confused about what they should be using.
This commit uniforms the short title of modules provided by libstd,
in order to make their roles more explicit when glancing at the index.

This uses quite a bit of unsafe code for speed and failure safety, and allocates `2*n` temporary storage.
[Performance](https://gist.github.com/huonw/5547f2478380288a28c2):
| n | new | priority_queue | quick3 |
|-------:|---------:|---------------:|---------:|
| 5 | 200 | 155 | 106 |
| 100 | 6490 | 8750 | 5810 |
| 10000 | 1300000 | 1790000 | 1060000 |
| 100000 | 16700000 | 23600000 | 12700000 |
| sorted | 520000 | 1380000 | 53900000 |
| trend | 1310000 | 1690000 | 1100000 |
(The times are in nanoseconds, having subtracted the set-up time (i.e. the `just_generate` bench target).)
I imagine that there is still significant room for improvement, particularly because both priority_queue and quick3 are doing a static call via `Ord` or `TotalOrd` for the comparisons, while this is using a (boxed) closure.
Also, this code does not `clone`, unlike `quick_sort3`; and is stable, unlike both of the others.
