I don't know why anyone would turn this off; doing so makes builds much slower (nearly a 60x slowdown according to #49057).
Remove the option to do so, which makes bootstrap a little easier to maintain.
Bootstrap continues to allow you to manage submodules manually by setting `submodules = false`.
Previously, the static-libstdcpp setting was tied to llvm-tools such
that enabling the latter always enabled the latter. This seems
unfortunate, since it is entirely reasonable for someone to want to
_not_ statically link stdc++, but _also_ want to build the llvm-tools.
This patch therefore separates the two settings such that neither
implies the other.
On its own, that would change the default behavior in a way that's
likely to surprise users. Specifically, users who build llvm-tools
_likely_ want those tools to be statically compiled against libstdc++,
since otherwise users with older GLIBCXX will be unable to run the
vended tools. So, we also flip the default for the `static-libstdcpp`
setting such that builds always link statically against libstdc++ by
default, but it's _possible_ to opt out.
See also #94719.
It is currently hard coded to llvm if enabled and cranelift otherwise.
This made some sense when cranelift was the only alternative codegen
backend. Since the introduction of the gcc backend this doesn't make
much sense anymore. Before this PR bootstrapping rustc using a backend
other than llvm or cranelift required changing the source of
rustc_interface. With this PR it becomes a matter of putting the right
backend as first enabled backend in config.toml.
Support custom options for LLVM build
The LLVM build has a lot of options that rustbuild doesn't need to know about. We should allow the user to customize the LLVM build directly.
Here are some [example customizations][recipe] we'd like to do.
[recipe]: 90105e5e4e/recipes/contrib/clang_toolchain.py (579)
Continue supporting -Z instrument-coverage for compatibility for now,
but show a deprecation warning for it.
Update uses and documentation to use the -C option.
Move the documentation from the unstable book to stable rustc
documentation.
Make new symbol mangling scheme default for compiler itself.
As suggest in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/89917#issuecomment-945888574, this PR enables the new symbol mangling scheme for the compiler itself. The standard library is still compiled using the legacy mangling scheme so that the new symbol format does not show up in user code (yet).

I'm working on some LLVM patches in concert with a Rust patch, and it's
helping me quite a bit to have this as an option. It doesn't seem that
hard, so I figured I'd formalize it in x.py and send it upstream.
fix the stage0 tools config file path in `config.toml.example`
in #88362 , the `stage0.txt ` have been switched to `stage0.json` , but in `config.toml.example` the guide didn't change , this PR fix this issue
On NixOS systems, bootstrap will patch rustc used in bootstrapping after
checking `/etc/os-release` (to confirm the current distribution is NixOS).
However, when using Nix on a non-NixOS system, it can be desirable for
bootstrap to patch rustc. In this commit, a `patch-binaries-for-nix`
option is added to `config.toml`, which allows for user opt-in to
bootstrap's Nix patching.

BPF target support
This adds `bpfel-unknown-none` and `bpfeb-unknown-none`, two new no_std targets that generate little and big endian BPF. The approach taken is very similar to the cuda target, where `TargetOptions::obj_is_bitcode` is enabled and code generation is done by the linker.
I added the targets to `dist-various-2`. There are [some tests](https://github.com/alessandrod/bpf-linker/tree/main/tests/assembly) in bpf-linker and I'm planning to add more. Those are currently not ran as part of rust CI.
Cleanup option parsing and config.toml.example
- Add an assertion that `link-shared = true` when `thin-lto = true`.
Previously, link-shared would be silently overwritten.
- Get rid of `Option<bool>` in bootstrap/config.rs. Set defaults
immediately instead of delaying until later in bootstrap. This makes
it easier to find what the default value is.
- Remove redundant `config.x = false` when the default was already false
- Set defaults for `bindir` in `default_opts()` instead of `parse()`
- Update `download-ci-llvm = if-supported` option to match bootstrap.py
- Remove redundant check for link_shared. Previously, it was checked twice.
- Update various options in config.toml.example to their defaults.
Previously, some options showed an example value instead of the
default value.
- Fix incorrect defaults in config.toml.example
+ `use-libcxx` defaults to false
+ Add missing `check-stage = 0`
+ Update several defaults to be conditional (e.g. `if incremental { 10 } else { 100 }`)
- Remove redundant defaults in prose
- Use the same comment for the default and target-dependent `musl-root`
- Fix typos
- Link to `cc_detect` for `cc` and `cxx`, since the logic is ... complicated.
- Update more defaults to better reflect how they actually get set
- Remove ignored `gpg-password-file` option
This stopped being used in
7704d35,
but was never removed from config.toml.
- Remove unused flags from `config.toml`
+ Disallow `infodir` and `localstatedir` in `config.toml`
+ Allow the flags in `./configure`, but give a warning that they will be
ignored.
+ Fix incorrect comment that `datadir` will be ignored.
Example output:
```
$ ./configure --set install.infodir=xxx
configure: processing command line
configure:
configure: install.infodir := xxx
configure: build.configure-args := ['--set', 'install.infodir=xxx']
warning: infodir will be ignored

- Update CHANGELOG
- Add "as an example" where appropriate
- Link to an issue instead of to ephemeral chats
Add `download-rustc = "if-unchanged"`
This allows keeping the setting to a fixed value without having to
toggle it when you want to work on the compiler instead of on tools.
This sets `BOOTSTRAP_DOWNLOAD_RUSTC` in bootstrap.py so rustbuild doesn't have to try and replicate its logic.
Helps with https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81930.

Adds bootstrap rules to support installing rust-demangler.
When compiling with `-Z instrument-coverage`, the coverage reports are
generated by `llvm-cov`. `llvm-cov` includes a built-in demangler for
C++, and an option to supply an alternate demangler. For Rust, we have
`rust-demangler`, currently used in `rustc` coverage tests.
Fuchsia's toolchain for Rust is built via `./x.py install`. Fuchsia is
adding support for Rust coverage, and we need to include the
`rust-demangler` in the installed `bin` directory.
Configured rust-demangler as an in-tree extended tool.
Added tests to support `./x.py test rust-demangler`.
Install with extended tools by default only if `profiler = true`.
config.toml parsing error improvements
Improve error messages for musl-libdir and wasi-root keys. Previously
the parser would panic with `unwrap()`. Now it prints
Target "wasm32-wasi" does not have a "wasi-root" key
(and similar for the `musl-libdir` field, which is used in target that
use musl)
Also update comments around wasi-root field to make it clear that the
field is only valid in wasm32-wasi target and needs to be moved to a
`[target.wasm32-wasi]` section to be valid.
Fixes#82317

- Use the same compiler for stage0 and stage1. This should be fixed at
some point (so bootstrap isn't constantly rebuilt).
- Make sure `x.py build` and `x.py check` work.
- Use `git merge-base` to determine the most recent commit to download.
- Copy stage0 to the various sysroots in `Sysroot`, and delegate to
Sysroot in Assemble. Leave all other code unchanged.
- Rename date -> key
This can also be a commit hash, so 'date' is no longer a good name.
- Add the commented-out option to config.toml.example
- Disable all steps by default when `download-rustc` is enabled
Most steps don't make sense when downloading a compiler, because they'll
be pre-built in the sysroot. Only enable the ones that might be useful,
in particular Rustdoc and all `check` steps.
At some point, this should probably enable other tools, but rustdoc is
enough to test out `download-rustc`.
- Don't print 'Skipping' twice in a row
Bootstrap forcibly enables a dry run if it isn't already set, so
previously it would print the message twice:
```
Skipping bootstrap::compile::Std because it is not enabled for `download-rustc`
Skipping bootstrap::compile::Std because it is not enabled for `download-rustc`
```
Now it correctly only prints once.
## Future work
- Add FIXME about supporting beta commits
- Debug logging will never work. This should be fixed.
`dsymutil` adds time to builds on Apple platforms for no clear benefit, and also
makes it more difficult for debuggers to find debug info. The compiler currently
defaults to running `dsymutil` to preserve its historical default, but when
compiling the compiler itself, we skip it by default since we know it's safe to
do so in that case.
This adds `rust.description` to the config as a descriptive string to be
appended to `rustc --version` output, which is also used in places like
debuginfo `DW_AT_producer`. This may be useful for supplementary build
information, like distro-specific package versions.
For example, in Fedora 33, `gcc --version` outputs:
gcc (GCC) 10.2.1 20201016 (Red Hat 10.2.1-6)
With this change, we can add similar vendor info to `rustc --version`.
Support enable/disable sanitizers/profiler per target
This PR add options under `[target.*]` of `config.toml` which can enable or disable sanitizers/profiler runtime for corresponding target.
If these options are empty, the global options under `[build]` will take effect.
Fix#78329
Update `changelog-seen` in config.toml.example
This got out of sync when the version was bumped last time in #77133
Long-term we may want to find an easier way to maintain this that
doesn't require bumping the version in three different places. Off the
top of my head I can't think of anything, though. It _is_ documented in src/bootstrap/README.md, although I don't know how many people read that.
