The tiny bug was that `FnFlags::DEPRECTAED_SAFE_2024` and `FnFlags::RUSTC_ALLOW_INCOHERENT_IMPLS` were assigned the same value.
The catastrophic effect was that every function marked as `#[rustc_allow_incoherent_impl]` was considered safe-deprecated for edition 2024, which caused it to be considered unsafe to call when called from edition 2024. And that includes `<[_]>::into_vec()`, which is called by the `vec![]` macro. So, catastrophic effect.
This innocent-looking bug probably arose from the item tree rewrite. No review would've catch that!
This refactors how we deal with items in hir-def lowering.
- It now lowers all of them through an "ExpressionStore" (kind of a misnomer as this point) as their so called *Signatures.
- We now uniformly lower type AST into TypeRefs before type inference.
- Likewise, this moves macro expansion out of type inference, resulting in a single place where we do non-defmap macro expansion.
- Finally, this PR removes a lot of information from ItemTree, making the DefMap a lot less likely to be recomputed and have it only depend on actual early name resolution related information (not 100% true, we still have ADT fields in there but thats a follow up removal).
Specifically, #18744 was the PR that was supposed to fix the old bug, but it fixed it incorrectly (and didn't add a test!) The underlying reason was that we marked metavariables in expansions as joint if they were joint in the macro call, which is incorrect.
This wrong fix causes other bug, #19497, which this PR fixes by removing the old (incorrect) fix.
Reduce formatting `width` and `precision` to 16 bits
This is part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/99012
This is reduces the `width` and `precision` fields in format strings to 16 bits. They are currently full `usize`s, but it's a bit nonsensical that we need to support the case where someone wants to pad their value to eighteen quintillion spaces and/or have eighteen quintillion digits of precision.
By reducing these fields to 16 bit, we can reduce `FormattingOptions` to 64 bits (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136974) and improve the in memory representation of `format_args!()`. (See additional context below.)
This also fixes a bug where the width or precision is silently truncated when cross-compiling to a target with a smaller `usize`. By reducing the width and precision fields to the minimum guaranteed size of `usize`, 16 bits, this bug is eliminated.
This is a breaking change, but affects almost no existing code.
---
Details of this change:
There are three ways to set a width or precision today:
1. Directly a formatting string, e.g. `println!("{a:1234}")`
2. Indirectly in a formatting string, e.g. `println!("{a:width$}", width=1234)`
3. Through the unstable `FormattingOptions::width` method.
This PR:
- Adds a compiler error for 1. (`println!("{a:9999999}")` no longer compiles and gives a clear error.)
- Adds a runtime check for 2. (`println!("{a:width$}, width=9999999)` will panic.)
- Changes the signatures of the (unstable) `FormattingOptions::[get_]width` methods to use a `u16` instead.
---
Additional context for improving `FormattingOptions` and `fmt::Arguments`:
All the formatting flags and options are currently:
- The `+` flag (1 bit)
- The `-` flag (1 bit)
- The `#` flag (1 bit)
- The `0` flag (1 bit)
- The `x?` flag (1 bit)
- The `X?` flag (1 bit)
- The alignment (2 bits)
- The fill character (21 bits)
- Whether a width is specified (1 bit)
- Whether a precision is specified (1 bit)
- If used, the width (a full usize)
- If used, the precision (a full usize)
Everything except the last two can simply fit in a `u32` (those add up to 31 bits in total).
If we can accept a max width and precision of u16::MAX, we can make a `FormattingOptions` that is exactly 64 bits in size; the same size as a thin reference on most platforms.
If, additionally, we also limit the number of formatting arguments, we can also reduce the size of `fmt::Arguments` (that is, of a `format_args!()` expression).
