cg_llvm: Use `LLVMDIBuilderCreateGlobalVariableExpression` - Part of rust-lang/rust#134001 - Follow-up to rust-lang/rust#146763 --- This PR dismantles the somewhat complicated `LLVMRustDIBuilderCreateStaticVariable` function, and replaces it with equivalent calls to `LLVMDIBuilderCreateGlobalVariableExpression` and `LLVMGlobalSetMetadata`. A key difference is that the new code does not replicate the attempted downcast of `InitVal`. As far as I can tell, those downcasts were actually dead, because `llvm::ConstantInt` and `llvm::ConstantFP` are not subclasses of `llvm::GlobalVariable`. I tried replacing those code paths with fatal errors, and was unable to induce failure in any of the relevant test suites I ran. I have also confirmed that if the calls to `create_static_variable` are commented out, debuginfo tests will fail, demonstrating some amount of relevant test coverage. The new `DIBuilder` methods have been added via an extension trait, not as inherent methods, to avoid impeding rust-lang/rust#142897.
This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
