This was done in #145740 and #145947. It is causing problems for people
using r-a on anything that uses the rustc-dev rustup package, e.g. Miri,
clippy.
This repository has lots of submodules and subtrees and various
different projects are carved out of pieces of it. It seems like
`[workspace.dependencies]` will just be more trouble than it's worth.
Lint buffering currently relies on a giant enum `BuiltinLintDiag`
containing all the lints that might potentially get buffered. In
addition to being an unwieldy enum in a central crate, this also makes
`rustc_lint_defs` a build bottleneck: it depends on various types from
various crates (with a steady pressure to add more), and many crates
depend on it.
Having all of these variants in a separate crate also prevents detecting
when a variant becomes unused, which we can do with a dedicated type
defined and used in the same crate.
Refactor this to use a dyn trait, to allow using `LintDiagnostic` types
directly.
This requires boxing, but all of this is already on the slow path
(emitting an error).
Because the existing `BuiltinLintDiag` requires some additional types in
order to decorate some variants, which are only available later in
`rustc_lint`, use an enum `DecorateDiagCompat` to handle both the `dyn
LintDiagnostic` case and the `BuiltinLintDiag` case.
Some crates depend on `rustc_hir` but only want `HirId` and similar id
types. `rustc_hir` is a heavy dependency, since it pulls in
`rustc_target`. Split these types out into their own crate
`rustc_hir_id`.
This allows `rustc_errors` to drop its direct dependency on `rustc_hir`.
(`rustc_errors` still depends on `rustc_hir` indirectly through
`rustc_lint_defs`; a subsequent commit will fix that.)
`rustc_errors` depends on numerous crates, solely to implement its
`IntoDiagArg` trait on types from those crates. Many crates depend on
`rustc_errors`, and it's on the critical path.
We can't swap things around to make all of those crates depend on
`rustc_errors` instead, because `rustc_errors` would end up in
dependency cycles.
Instead, move `IntoDiagArg` into `rustc_error_messages`, which has far
fewer dependencies, and then have most of these crates depend on
`rustc_error_messages`.
This allows `rustc_errors` to drop dependencies on several crates,
including the large `rustc_target`.
(This doesn't fully reduce dependency chains yet, as `rustc_errors`
still depends on `rustc_hir` which depends on `rustc_target`. That will
get fixed in a subsequent commit.)
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.
There is a logical issue around what counts as leading white-space.
There is code which does a subtraction assuming that no errors will be reported
inside the leading whitespace. However we compute the length of
that whitespace with std::char::is_whitespace and not
rustc_lexer::is_whitespace. The former will include a no-break space while
later will excluded it. We can only safely make the assumption that no errors
will be reported in whitespace if it is all "Rust Standard" whitespace.
Indeed an error does occur in unicode whitespace if it contains a no-break
space.
Since it's inception a long time ago, the parallel compiler and its cfgs
have been a maintenance burden. This was a necessary evil the allow
iteration while not degrading performance because of synchronization
overhead.
But this time is over. Thanks to the amazing work by the parallel
working group (and the dyn sync crimes), the parallel compiler has now
been fast enough to be shipped by default in nightly for quite a while
now.
Stable and beta have still been on the serial compiler, because they
can't use `-Zthreads` anyways.
But this is quite suboptimal:
- the maintenance burden still sucks
- we're not testing the serial compiler in nightly
Because of these reasons, it's time to end it. The serial compiler has
served us well in the years since it was split from the parallel one,
but it's over now.
Let the knight slay one head of the two-headed dragon!
Depend on rustc_abi in compiler crates that use it indirectly but have
not yet taken on that dependency, and are not entangled in my other PRs.
This leaves an "excise rustc_target" step after the dust settles.
No longer track "zero-width" chars in `SourceMap`, read directly from the line when calculating the `display_col` of a `BytePos`. Move `char_width` to `rustc_span` and use it from the emitter.
This change allows the following to properly align in terminals (depending on the font, the replaced control codepoints are rendered as 1 or 2 width, on my terminal they are rendered as 1, on VSCode text they are rendered as 2):

Error codes are integers, but `String` is used everywhere to represent
them. Gross!
This commit introduces `ErrCode`, an integral newtype for error codes,
replacing `String`. It also introduces a constant for every error code,
e.g. `E0123`, and removes the `error_code!` macro. The constants are
imported wherever used with `use rustc_errors::codes::*`.
With the old code, we have three different ways to specify an error code
at a use point:
```
error_code!(E0123) // macro call
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // bare ident arg to macro call
\#[diag(name, code = "E0123")] // string
struct Diag;
```
With the new code, they all use the `E0123` constant.
```
E0123 // constant
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // constant
\#[diag(name, code = E0123)] // constant
struct Diag;
```
The commit also changes the structure of the error code definitions:
- `rustc_error_codes` now just defines a higher-order macro listing the
used error codes and nothing else.
- Because that's now the only thing in the `rustc_error_codes` crate, I
moved it into the `lib.rs` file and removed the `error_codes.rs` file.
- `rustc_errors` uses that macro to define everything, e.g. the error
code constants and the `DIAGNOSTIC_TABLES`. This is in its new
`codes.rs` file.
- Sort dependencies and features sections.
- Add `tidy` markers to the sorted sections so they stay sorted.
- Remove empty `[lib`] sections.
- Remove "See more keys..." comments.
Excluded files:
- rustc_codegen_{cranelift,gcc}, because they're external.
- rustc_lexer, because it has external use.
- stable_mir, because it has external use.
Currently, the output of `rustc --explain foo` displays the raw markdown in a
pager. This is acceptable, but using actual formatting makes it easier to
understand.
This patch consists of three major components:
1. A markdown parser. This is an extremely simple non-backtracking recursive
implementation that requires normalization of the final token stream
2. A utility to write the token stream to an output buffer
3. Configuration within rustc_driver_impl to invoke this combination for
`--explain`. Like the current implementation, it first attempts to print to
a pager with a fallback colorized terminal, and standard print as a last
resort.
If color is disabled, or if the output does not support it, or if printing
with color fails, it will write the raw markdown (which matches current
behavior).
Pagers known to support color are: `less` (with `-r`), `bat` (aka `catbat`),
and `delta`.
The markdown parser does not support the entire markdown specification, but
should support the following with reasonable accuracy:
- Headings, including formatting
- Comments
- Code, inline and fenced block (no indented block)
- Strong, emphasis, and strikethrough formatted text
- Links, anchor, inline, and reference-style
- Horizontal rules
- Unordered and ordered list items, including formatting
This parser and writer should be reusable by other systems if ever needed.
Fluent, with all the icu4x it brings in, takes quite some time to
compile. `fluent_messages!` is only needed in further downstream rustc
crates, but is blocking more upstream crates like `rustc_index`. By
splitting it out, we allow `rustc_macros` to be compiled earlier, which
speeds up `x check compiler` by about 5 seconds (and even more after the
needless dependency on `serde_json` is removed from
`rustc_data_structures`).
Use `IsTerminal` in place of `atty`
In any crate that can use nightly features, use `IsTerminal` rather than
`atty`:
- Use `IsTerminal` in `rustc_errors`
- Use `IsTerminal` in `rustc_driver`
- Use `IsTerminal` in `rustc_log`
- Use `IsTerminal` in `librustdoc`
- ... when creating diagnostics in rustc_metadata
- use the error_code! macro
- pass macro output to diag.code()
- use fluent from within manual implementation of SessionDiagnostic
- emit the untested errors in case they occur in the wild
- stop panicking in the probably-not-dead code, add fixme to write test
`MultiSpan` contains labels, which are more complicated with the
introduction of diagnostic translation and will use types from
`rustc_errors` - however, `rustc_errors` depends on `rustc_span` so
`rustc_span` cannot use types like `DiagnosticMessage` without
dependency cycles. Introduce a new `rustc_error_messages` crate that can
contain `DiagnosticMessage` and `MultiSpan`.

Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field anyway, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information, we should remove it from
crates in this repo.
