I feel that just writing the arguments here could potentially be confusing without the output that emit_note(errors::StaticLibraryNativeArtifacts)
would print to stdout. Can we either include that note or maybe don't write anything here at all?

Good call. How about keeping a sess.emit_note
that informs you that it wrote the native-static-libs to a file? Similar to what #76843 did for long type names -- write the unadorned information to a file (which is the most useful for tooling) and also write an informative note among the compiler diagnostics to provide context.

Can you move this into the if branch? Also I'm not sure what exact form lib_args
has and whether it's straightforward to find the native artifacts in the file after reading the note on stdout, would it maybe be better to write this to the file: "native-static-libs: {}", &lib_args.join(" ")
?

ah nvm, I don't think this is necessary.
Can you maybe open a PR to update https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/command-line-arguments.html after this is merged, please? @bors r+ rollup |
Support `--print KIND=PATH` command line syntax As is already done for `--emit KIND=PATH` and `-L KIND=PATH`. In the discussion of rust-lang#110785, it was pointed out that `--print KIND=PATH` is nicer than trying to apply the single global `-o` path to `--print`'s output, because in general there can be multiple print requests within a single rustc invocation, and anyway `-o` would already be used for a different meaning in the case of `link-args` and `native-static-libs`. I am interested in using `--print cfg=PATH` in Buck2. Currently Buck2 works around the lack of support for `--print KIND=PATH` by [indirecting through a Python wrapper script](https://github.com/facebook/buck2/blob/d43cf3a51a31f00be2c2248e78271b0fef0452b4/prelude/rust/tools/get_rustc_cfg.py) to redirect rustc's stdout into the location dictated by the build system. From skimming Cargo's usages of `--print`, it definitely seems like it would benefit from `--print KIND=PATH` too. Currently it is working around the lack of this by inserting `--crate-name=___ --print=crate-name` so that it can look for a line containing `___` as a delimiter between the 2 other `--print` informations it actually cares about. This is commented as a "HACK" and "abuse". https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/blob/31eda6f7c360d9911f853b3014e057db61238f3e/src/cargo/core/compiler/build_context/target_info.rs#L242 (FYI `@weihanglo` as you dealt with this recently in rust-lang/cargo#11633.)

This introduces a bit of code duplication, but we don't have the build_output_filenames in the CrateName arm and this seems a little cleaner overall.

The main motivation for this change is to disable this behaviour when running ui tests. This logic can be triggered by running tests in a directory that has a long enough path, e.g. /my/very-long-path/where/rust-codebase/exists/ This means ui tests can fail depending on how long the path to their file is. Some ui tests actually rely on this behaviour for their assertions, so for those we enable the flag manually. * coverage: Obtain the `__llvm_covfun` section name outside a per-function loop This section name is always constant for a given target, but obtaining it from LLVM requires a few intermediate allocations.

This addresses #87545; I'm not certain if it closes it, since that issue might also be trackign a *general* solution for hiding specializing impls automatically. * borrowck/errors: fix i18n error in delayed bug During borrowck, the `MultiSpan` from a buffered diagnostic is cloned and used to emit a delayed bug indicating a diagnostic was buffered - when the buffered diagnostic is translated, then the cloned `MultiSpan` may contain labels which can only render with the diagnostic's arguments, but the delayed bug being emitted won't have those arguments.

However, if a generator ends up with an unsized local - a circumstance in which an error will always have been emitted earlier, for example, if attempting to dereference a `&str` - then the generator transform will produce a union with an unsized field. Since #110107, later passes will be run, such as constant propagation, and can attempt layout computation on the generator, which will result in layout computation of `str` in the context of it being a field of a union - and so the aforementioned assertion would cause an ICE. It didn't seem appropriate to try and detect this case in the MIR body and skip this specific pass; tainting the MIR body or delaying a bug from the generator transform (or elsewhere) wouldn't prevent this either (as neither would prevent the later pass from running); and tainting when the deref of `&str` is reported, if that's possible, would unnecessarily prevent potential other errors from being reported later in compilation, and is very tailored to this specific case of getting a unsized type in a generator. Given that this circumstance can only happen when an error should have already been reported, the correct fix appears to be just changing the assert to a delayed bug. This will still assert if there is some circumstance where this occurs and no error has been reported, but it won't crash the compiler in this instance.

However on certain architectures such as RISC-V, LLVM will emulate byte atomics using a masked CAS loop on an aligned word. We can take advantage of the fact that `bool` only ever has a value of 0 or 1 to replace `swap` operations with `and`/`or` operations that LLVM can lower to word-sized atomic `and`/`or` operations. This takes advantage of the fact that the incoming value to a `swap` or `compare_exchange` for `AtomicBool` is often a compile-time constant. * Remove `Parser::desugar_doc_comments`.

It doesn't really matter what the `desugar_doc_comments` argument is here, because in practice we never look ahead through doc comments.

Making it similar to `Token::uninterpolate`. This avoids some more token tree cloning. * Avoid some token cloning in `filter_tokens_from_list`. Now the cloning only happens on some paths, instead of all paths. * Avoid some token tree cloning in decl macro parsing. By changing `into_trees` into `trees`. Some of the subsequent paths require explicit clones, but not all. * Avoid `into_trees` usage in rustfmt. Token tree cloning is only needed in one place. * Remove `Iterator` impl for `TokenTreeCursor`. This is surprising, but the new comment explains why. It's a logical conclusion in the drive to avoid `TokenTree` clones. `TokenTreeCursor` is now only used within `Parser`.

As is already done for
--emit KIND=PATH
and-L KIND=PATH
.In the discussion of #110785, it was pointed out that
--print KIND=PATH
is nicer than trying to apply the single global-o
path to--print
's output, because in general there can be multiple print requests within a single rustc invocation, and anyway-o
would already be used for a different meaning in the case oflink-args
andnative-static-libs
.I am interested in using
--print cfg=PATH
in Buck2. Currently Buck2 works around the lack of support for--print KIND=PATH
by indirecting through a Python wrapper script to redirect rustc's stdout into the location dictated by the build system.From skimming Cargo's usages of
--print
, it definitely seems like it would benefit from--print KIND=PATH
too. Currently it is working around the lack of this by inserting--crate-name=___ --print=crate-name
so that it can look for a line containing___
as a delimiter between the 2 other--print
informations it actually cares about. This is commented as a "HACK" and "abuse". https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/blob/31eda6f7c360d9911f853b3014e057db61238f3e/src/cargo/core/compiler/build_context/target_info.rs#L242 (FYI @weihanglo as you dealt with this recently in rust-lang/cargo#11633.)Mentioning reviewers active in #110785: @fee1-dead @jyn514 @bjorn3
