Squash all lints tied to foreign macros by default #52467

alexcrichton · 2018-07-17T18:30:05Z

This PR is a continuation of #49755 (thanks for the initial jump-start @Dylan-DPC!) and is targeted at solving #48855. This change updates the lint infrastructure to, by default, ignore all lints emitted for code that originates in a foreign macro. For example if println!("...") injects some idiomatic warnings these are all ignored by default. The rationale here is that for almost all lints there's no action that can be taken if the code originates from a foreign lint.

Closes #48855
Closes #52483
Closes #52479

Looks good so far, but it should always output warnings for future incompatibility lints. Folks should know if their code will break, even if it's not something they can fix in their own crate.

alexcrichton · 2018-07-17T18:39:24Z

@Manishearth indeed! That's why this is in the else clause where the previous has to do with future incompatibility (this is also mentioned in the comment added)

Ideally we'd still emit lints if the macro originates from a crate within the workspace. But that probably requires significant changes to tell us which crates belong to the same workspace

src/librustc/lint/mod.rs

+/// Returns whether `span` originates in a foreign crate's external macro.
+///
+/// This is used to test whether a lint should be entirely aborted above.
+fn in_external_macro(sess: &Session, span: Span) -> bool {


Can you make this public so we can reuse it from clippy?

Manishearth

lol missed that (was reviewing from phone)

r=me, with the function public

This commit polishes off this new function to compile on newer rustc as well as update and add a suite of test cases to work with this new check for lints.

alexcrichton · 2018-07-17T19:21:10Z

@oli-obk I agree! I also agree though that unfortunately there's no great way to know that in the compiler right now :(

Manishearth · 2018-07-20T20:23:10Z

This ends up breaking a bunch of clippy lints:

Sometimes we lint on an expression when not caring about the contents, it should be okay for that to be a macro -- e.g. if the expression is println!("foo"), the lint gets hidden, even though the lint is about the expression as a whole and not the macro origins
There should be an opt out, we have some lints that lint #[derive()]s
There's some funkyness around compiler desugarings, we're having for i in 1..3 where the lint is on the range getting squashed

overall ISTM it might be better to make this a per-lint thing like how clippy does. Either way, clippy is going to opt out I think.

alexcrichton · 2018-07-20T20:53:53Z

@Manishearth should this check perhaps become a runtime check against a set stored in the session or lint context? That way Clippy would be able to register lints as "please issue a warning despite the foreign-macro-ness"

oli-obk · 2018-07-20T20:57:11Z

I have made it a runtime check and added the two rustc exceptions as a proof of concept: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/52562/files#diff-837439bcaa26732bb48bcbb0c60716ccL586

they are no longer required due to rust-lang/rust#52467

added function to check if lints belong to an external macro
