This commit changes it to store a `Region` instead of a `RegionVid` for the `Var` cases:
- We avoid having to call `Region::new_var` to re-create `Region`s from
`RegionVid`s in a few places, avoiding the interning process, giving a
small perf win. (At the cost of the type allowing some invalid
combinations of values.)
- All the cases now store two `Region`s, so the commit also separates
the `ConstraintKind` (a new type) from the `sub` and `sup` arguments
in `Constraint`.
`-Zhigher-ranked-assumptions`: Consider WF of coroutine witness when proving outlives assumptions
### TL;DR
This PR introduces an unstable flag `-Zhigher-ranked-assumptions` which tests out a new algorithm for dealing with some of the higher-ranked outlives problems that come from auto trait bounds on coroutines. See:
* rust-lang/rust#110338
While it doesn't fix all of the issues, it certainly fixed many of them, so I'd like to get this landed so people can test the flag on their own code.
### Background
Consider, for example:
```rust
use std::future::Future;
trait Client {
type Connecting<'a>: Future + Send
where
Self: 'a;
fn connect(&self) -> Self::Connecting<'_>;
}
fn call_connect<C>(c: C) -> impl Future + Send
where
C: Client + Send + Sync,
{
async move { c.connect().await }
}
```
Due to the fact that we erase the lifetimes in a coroutine, we can think of the interior type of the async block as something like: `exists<'r, 's> { C, &'r C, C::Connecting<'s> }`. The first field is the `c` we capture, the second is the auto-ref that we perform on the call to `.connect()`, and the third is the resulting future we're awaiting at the first and only await point. Note that every region is uniquified differently in the interior types.
For the async block to be `Send`, we must prove that both of the interior types are `Send`. First, we have an `exists<'r, 's>` binder, which needs to be instantiated universally since we treat the regions in this binder as *unknown*[^exist]. This gives us two types: `{ &'!r C, C::Connecting<'!s> }`. Proving `&'!r C: Send` is easy due to a [`Send`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/marker/trait.Send.html#impl-Send-for-%26T) impl for references.
Proving `C::Connecting<'!s>: Send` can only be done via the item bound, which then requires `C: '!s` to hold (due to the `where Self: 'a` on the associated type definition). Unfortunately, we don't know that `C: '!s` since we stripped away any relationship between the interior type and the param `C`. This leads to a bogus borrow checker error today!
### Approach
Coroutine interiors are well-formed by virtue of them being borrow-checked, as long as their callers are invoking their parent functions in a well-formed way, then substitutions should also be well-formed. Therefore, in our example above, we should be able to deduce the assumption that `C: '!s` holds from the well-formedness of the interior type `C::Connecting<'!s>`.
This PR introduces the notion of *coroutine assumptions*, which are the outlives assumptions that we can assume hold due to the well-formedness of a coroutine's interior types. These are computed alongside the coroutine types in the `CoroutineWitnessTypes` struct. When we instantiate the binder when proving an auto trait for a coroutine, we instantiate the `CoroutineWitnessTypes` and stash these newly instantiated assumptions in the region storage in the `InferCtxt`. Later on in lexical region resolution or MIR borrowck, we use these registered assumptions to discharge any placeholder outlives obligations that we would otherwise not be able to prove.
### How well does it work?
I've added a ton of tests of different reported situations that users have shared on issues like rust-lang/rust#110338, and an (anecdotally) large number of those examples end up working straight out of the box! Some limitations are described below.
### How badly does it not work?
The behavior today is quite rudimentary, since we currently discharge the placeholder assumptions pretty early in region resolution. This manifests itself as some limitations on the code that we accept.
For example, `tests/ui/async-await/higher-ranked-auto-trait-11.rs` continues to fail. In that test, we must prove that a placeholder is equal to a universal for a param-env candidate to hold when proving an auto trait, e.g. `'!1 = 'a` is required to prove `T: Trait<'!1>` in a param-env that has `T: Trait<'a>`. Unfortunately, at that point in the MIR body, we only know that the placeholder is equal to some body-local existential NLL var `'?2`, which only gets equated to the universal `'a` when being stored into the return local later on in MIR borrowck.
This could be fixed by integrating these assumptions into the type outlives machinery in a more first-class way, and delaying things to the end of MIR typeck when we know the full relationship between existential and universal NLL vars. Doing this integration today is quite difficult today.
`tests/ui/async-await/higher-ranked-auto-trait-11.rs` fails because we don't compute the full transitive outlives relations between placeholders. In that test, we have in our region assumptions that some `'!1 = '!2` and `'!2 = '!3`, but we must prove `'!1 = '!3`.
This can be fixed by computing the set of coroutine outlives assumptions in a more transitive way, or as I mentioned above, integrating these assumptions into the type outlives machinery in a more first-class way, since it's already responsible for the transitive outlives assumptions of universals.
### Moving forward
I'm still quite happy with this implementation, and I'd like to land it for testing. I may work on overhauling both the way we compute these coroutine assumptions and also how we deal with the assumptions during (lexical/nll) region checking. But for now, I'd like to give users a chance to try out this new `-Zhigher-ranked-assumptions` flag to uncover more shortcomings.
[^exist]: Instantiating this binder with infer regions would be incomplete, since we'd be asking for *some* instantiation of the interior types, not proving something for *all* instantiations of the interior types.
There's an existing fast path for the `type_op_prove_predicate`
predicate, checking for trivially `Sized` types, which can be re-used
when evaluating obligations within queries. This should improve
performance, particularly in anticipation of new sizedness traits being
added which can take advantage of this.
Revert <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/138084> to buy time to
consider options that avoids breaking downstream usages of cargo on
distributed `rustc-src` artifacts, where such cargo invocations fail due
to inability to inherit `lints` from workspace root manifest's
`workspace.lints` (this is only valid for the source rust-lang/rust
workspace, but not really the distributed `rustc-src` artifacts).
This breakage was reported in
<https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/138304>.
This reverts commit 48caf81484b50dca5a5cebb614899a3df81ca898, reversing
changes made to c6662879b27f5161e95f39395e3c9513a7b97028.
By naming them in `[workspace.lints.rust]` in the top-level
`Cargo.toml`, and then making all `compiler/` crates inherit them with
`[lints] workspace = true`. (I omitted `rustc_codegen_{cranelift,gcc}`,
because they're a bit different.)
The advantages of this over the current approach:
- It uses a standard Cargo feature, rather than special handling in
bootstrap. So, easier to understand, and less likely to get
accidentally broken in the future.
- It works for proc macro crates.
It's a shame it doesn't work for rustc-specific lints, as the comments
explain.
Use `edition = "2024"` in the compiler (redux)
Most of this is binding mode changes, which I fixed by running `x.py fix`.
Also adds some miscellaneous `unsafe` blocks for new unsafe standard library functions (the setenv ones), and a missing `unsafe extern` block in some enzyme codegen code, and fixes some precise capturing lifetime changes (but only when they led to errors).
cc ``@ehuss`` ``@traviscross``
the behavior of the type system not only depends on the current
assumptions, but also the currentnphase of the compiler. This is
mostly necessary as we need to decide whether and how to reveal
opaque types. We track this via the `TypingMode`.
We already do this for a number of crates, e.g. `rustc_middle`,
`rustc_span`, `rustc_metadata`, `rustc_span`, `rustc_errors`.
For the ones we don't, in many cases the attributes are a mess.
- There is no consistency about order of attribute kinds (e.g.
`allow`/`deny`/`feature`).
- Within attribute kind groups (e.g. the `feature` attributes),
sometimes the order is alphabetical, and sometimes there is no
particular order.
- Sometimes the attributes of a particular kind aren't even grouped
all together, e.g. there might be a `feature`, then an `allow`, then
another `feature`.
This commit extends the existing sorting to all compiler crates,
increasing consistency. If any new attribute line is added there is now
only one place it can go -- no need for arbitrary decisions.
Exceptions:
- `rustc_log`, `rustc_next_trait_solver` and `rustc_type_ir_macros`,
because they have no crate attributes.
- `rustc_codegen_gcc`, because it's quasi-external to rustc (e.g. it's
ignored in `rustfmt.toml`).
