Background:
Over the last year, pidfd support was added to the Linux kernel. This
allows interacting with other processes. In particular, this allows
waiting on a child process with a timeout in a race-free way, bypassing
all of the awful signal-handler tricks that are usually required.
Pidfds can be obtained for a child process (as well as any other
process) via the `pidfd_open` syscall. Unfortunately, this requires
several conditions to hold in order to be race-free (i.e. the pid is not
reused).
Per `man pidfd_open`:
```
· the disposition of SIGCHLD has not been explicitly set to SIG_IGN
(see sigaction(2));
· the SA_NOCLDWAIT flag was not specified while establishing a han‐
dler for SIGCHLD or while setting the disposition of that signal to
SIG_DFL (see sigaction(2)); and
· the zombie process was not reaped elsewhere in the program (e.g.,
either by an asynchronously executed signal handler or by wait(2)
or similar in another thread).
If any of these conditions does not hold, then the child process
(along with a PID file descriptor that refers to it) should instead
be created using clone(2) with the CLONE_PIDFD flag.
```
Sadly, these conditions are impossible to guarantee once any libraries
are used. For example, C code runnng in a different thread could call
`wait()`, which is impossible to detect from Rust code trying to open a
pidfd.
While pid reuse issues should (hopefully) be rare in practice, we can do
better. By passing the `CLONE_PIDFD` flag to `clone()` or `clone3()`, we
can obtain a pidfd for the child process in a guaranteed race-free
manner.
This PR:
This PR adds Linux-specific process extension methods to allow obtaining
pidfds for processes spawned via the standard `Command` API. Other than
being made available to user code, the standard library does not make
use of these pidfds in any way. In particular, the implementation of
`Child::wait` is completely unchanged.
Two Linux-specific helper methods are added: `CommandExt::create_pidfd`
and `ChildExt::pidfd`. These methods are intended to serve as a building
block for libraries to build higher-level abstractions - in particular,
waiting on a process with a timeout.
I've included a basic test, which verifies that pidfds are created iff
the `create_pidfd` method is used. This test is somewhat special - it
should always succeed on systems with the `clone3` system call
available, and always fail on systems without `clone3` available. I'm
not sure how to best ensure this programatically.
This PR relies on the newer `clone3` system call to pass the `CLONE_FD`,
rather than the older `clone` system call. `clone3` was added to Linux
in the same release as pidfds, so this shouldn't unnecessarily limit the
kernel versions that this code supports.
Unresolved questions:
* What should the name of the feature gate be for these newly added
methods?
* Should the `pidfd` method distinguish between an error occurring
and `create_pidfd` not being called?

Simplify command-line argument initialization on unix
Simplify Rust's command-line argument initialization code on unix:
- The cleanup code isn't needed, because it was just zeroing out non-owning variables at runtime cleanup time. After 91c3eee173, Rust's command-line initialization code on unix no longer allocates `CString`s and a `Vec` at startup time.
- The `Mutex` isn't needed; if there's somehow a call to `args()` before argument initialization has happened, the code returns return an empty list, which we can do with a null check.
With these changes, a simple cdylib that doesn't use threads avoids getting `pthread_mutex_lock`/`pthread_mutex_unlock` in its symbol table.

Add diagnostic items for Clippy
This adds a bunch of diagnostic items to `std`/`core`/`alloc` functions, structs and traits used in Clippy. The actual refactorings in Clippy to use these items will be done in a different PR in Clippy after the next sync.
This PR doesn't include all paths Clippy uses, I've only gone through the first 85 lines of Clippy's [`paths.rs`](ecf85f4bdc/clippy_utils/src/paths.rs) (after rust-lang/rust-clippy#7466) to get some feedback early on. I've also decided against adding diagnostic items to methods, as it would be nicer and more scalable to access them in a nicer fashion, like adding a `is_diagnostic_assoc_item(did, sym::Iterator, sym::map)` function or something similar (Suggested by `@camsteffen` [on Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/147480-t-compiler.2Fwg-diagnostics/topic/Diagnostic.20Item.20Naming.20Convention.3F/near/225024603))
There seems to be some different naming conventions when it comes to diagnostic items, some use UpperCamelCase (`BinaryHeap`) and some snake_case (`hashmap_type`). This PR uses UpperCamelCase for structs and traits and snake_case with the module name as a prefix for functions. Any feedback on is this welcome.

In the command-line argument initialization code, remove the Mutex

ARGV is non-null before dereferencing it. This way, if either of
ARGV or ARGC is not initialized, we'll get an empty argument list.

Fix linker error
Currently, `fs::hard_link` determines whether platforms have `linkat` based on the OS, and uses `link` if they don't. However, this heuristic does not work well if a platform provides `linkat` on newer versions but not on older ones. On old MacOS, this currently causes a linking error.
This commit fixes `fs::hard_link` by telling it to use `weak!` on macOS. This means that, on that operating system, we now check for `linkat` at runtime and use `link` if it is not available.
Fixes#80804.

Add Integer::log variants

_Tracking issue: #70887_
---
This implements `{log,log2,log10}` methods for all integer types. The implementation was provided by `@substack` for use in the stdlib.
_Note: I'm not big on math, so this PR is a best effort written with limited knowledge. It's likely I'll be getting things wrong, but happy to learn and correct. Please bare with me._
## Motivation
Calculating the logarithm of a number is a generally useful operation. Currently the stdlib only provides implementations for floats, which means that if we want to calculate the logarithm for an integer we have to cast it to a float and then back to an int.
> would be nice if there was an integer log2 instead of having to either use the f32 version or leading_zeros() which i have to verify the results of every time to be sure
_— [`@substack,` 2020-03-08](https://twitter.com/substack/status/1236445105197727744)_
At higher numbers converting from an integer to a float we also risk overflows. This means that Rust currently only provides log operations for a limited set of integers.
The process of doing log operations by converting between floats and integers is also prone to rounding errors. In the following example we're trying to calculate `base10` for an integer. We might try and calculate the `base2` for the values, and attempt [a base swap](https://www.rapidtables.com/math/algebra/Logarithm.html#log-rules) to arrive at `base10`. However because we're performing intermediate rounding we arrive at the wrong result:
```rust
// log10(900) = ~2.95 = 2
dbg!(900f32.log10() as u64);
// log base change rule: logb(x) = logc(x) / logc(b)
// log2(900) / log2(10) = 9/3 = 3
dbg!((900f32.log2() as u64) / (10f32.log2() as u64));
```
_[playground](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=6bd6c68b3539e400f9ca4fdc6fc2eed0)_
This is somewhat nuanced as a lot of the time it'll work well, but in real world code this could lead to some hard to track bugs. By providing correct log implementations directly on integers we can help prevent errors around this.
## Implementation notes
I checked whether LLVM intrinsics existed before implementing this, and none exist yet. ~~Also I couldn't really find a better way to write the `ilog` function. One option would be to make it a private method on the number, but I didn't see any precedent for that. I also didn't know where to best place the tests, so I added them to the bottom of the file. Even though they might seem like quite a lot they take no time to execute.~~

Add std::os::unix::fs::DirEntryExt2::file_name_ref(&self) -> &OsStr
Greetings!
This is my first PR here, so please forgive me if I've missed an important step or otherwise done something wrong. I'm very open to suggestions/fixes/corrections.
This PR adds a function that allows `std::fs::DirEntry` to vend a borrow of its filename on Unix platforms, which is especially useful for sorting. (Windows has (as I understand it) encoding differences that require an allocation.) This new function sits alongside the cross-platform [`file_name(&self) -> OsString`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/fs/struct.DirEntry.html#method.file_name) function.
I pitched this idea in an [internals thread](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/allow-std-direntry-to-vend-borrows-of-its-filename/14328/4), and no one objected vehemently, so here we are.
I understand features in general, I believe, but I'm not at all confident that my whole-cloth invention of a new feature string (as required by the compiler) was correct (or that the name is appropriate). Further, there doesn't appear to be a test for the sibling `ino` function, so I didn't add one for this similarly trivial function either. If it's desirable that I should do so, I'd be happy to [figure out how to] do that.
The following is a trivial sample of a use-case for this function, in which directory entries are sorted without any additional allocations:
```rust
use std::os::unix::fs::DirEntryExt;
use std::{fs, io};
fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
let mut entries = fs::read_dir(".")?.collect::<Result<Vec<_>, io::Error>>()?;
entries.sort_unstable_by(|a, b| a.file_name_ref().cmp(b.file_name_ref()));
for p in entries {
println!("{:?}", p);
}
Ok(())
}
```
In the docs for intrinsics::abort():
* Strengthen the recommendation by to use process::abort instead.
* Document the fact that it (ab)uses an LLVM debug trap and what the
likely consequences are.
* State that the precise behaviour is unstable.

More ErrorKinds for common errnos
From the commit message of the main commit here (as revised):
```
There are a number of IO error situations which it would be very
useful for Rust code to be able to recognise without having to resort
to OS-specific code. Taking some Unix examples, `ENOTEMPTY` and
`EXDEV` have obvious recovery strategies. Recently I was surprised to
discover that `ENOSPC` came out as `ErrorKind::Other`.
Since I am familiar with Unix I reviwed the list of errno values in
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/errno.h.html
Here, I add those that most clearly seem to be needed.
`@CraftSpider` provided information about Windows, and references, which
I have tried to take into account.
This has to be insta-stable because we can't sensibly have a different
set of ErrorKinds depending on a std feature flag.
I have *not* added these to the mapping tables for any operating
systems other than Unix and Windows. I hope that it is OK to add them
now for Unix and Windows now, and maybe add them to other OS's mapping
tables as and when someone on that OS is able to consider the
situation.
I adopted the general principle that it was usually a bad idea to map
two distinct error values to the same Rust error code. I notice that
this principle is already violated in the case of `EACCES` and
`EPERM`, which both map to `PermissionDenied`. I think this was
probably a mistake but it would be quite hard to change now, so I
don't propose to do anything about that.
However, for Windows, there are sometimes different error codes for
identical situations. Eg there are WSA* versions of some error
codes as well as ERROR_* ones. Also Windows seems to have a great
many more erorr codes. I don't know precisely what best practice
would be for Windows.
```
<strike>
```
Errno values I wasn't sure about so *haven't* included:
EMFILE ENFILE ENOBUFS ENOLCK:
These are all fairly Unix-specific resource exhaustion situations.
In practice it seemed not very likely to me that anyone would want
to handle these differently to `Other`.
ENOMEM ERANGE EDOM EOVERFLOW
Normally these don't get exposed to the Rust callers I hope. They
don't tend to come out of filesystem APIs.
EILSEQ
Hopefully Rust libraries open files in binary mode and do the
converstion in Rust. So Rust code ought not to be exposed to
EILSEQ.
EIO
The range of things that could cause this is troublesome. I found
it difficult to describe. I do think it would be useful to add this
at some point, because EIO on a filesystem operation is much more
serious than most other errors.
ENETDOWN
I wasn't sure if this was useful or, indeed, if any modern systems
use it.
ENOEXEC
It is not clear to me how a Rust program could respond to this. It
seems rather niche.
EPROTO ENETRESET ENODATA ENOMSG ENOPROTOOPT ENOSR ENOSTR ETIME
ENOTRECOVERABLE EOWNERDEAD EBADMSG EPROTONOSUPPORT EPROTOTYPE EIDRM
These are network or STREAMS related errors which I have never in
my own Unix programming found the need to do anything with. I think
someone who understands these better should be the one to try to
find good Rust names and descriptions for them.
ENOTTY ENXIO ENODEV EOPNOTSUPP ESRCH EALREADY ECANCELED ECHILD
EINPROGRESS
These are very hard to get unless you're already doing something
very Unix-specific, in which case the raw_os_error interface is
probably more suitable than relying on the Rust ErrorKind mapping.
EFAULT EBADF
These would seem to be the result of application UB.

Now that arrays implement `IntoIterator`, using `&` is no longer necessary. This makes examples easier to understand.
Merge `sys_common::bytestring` back into `os_str_bytes`
`bytestring` contains code for correctly debug formatting a byte slice (`[u8]`). This functionality is and has historically only been used to provide the debug formatting of byte-based os-strings (on unix etc.).
Having this functionality in the separate `bytestring` module was useful in the past to reduce duplication, as [when it was added](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/46798) `os_str_bytes` was still split into `sys::{unix, redox, wasi, etc.}::os_str`. However, now that is no longer the case, there is not much reason for the `bytestring` functionality to be separate from `os_str_bytes`; I don't think it is very likely that another part of std will need to handle formatting byte strings that are not os-strings in the future (everything should be `utf8`). This is why this PR merges the functionality of `bytestring` directly into the debug implementation in `os_str_bytes`.
The `unsupported` type is imported two times, as `super::unsupported` and as `crate::sys::unsupported`, throwing an error. Remove `super::unsupported` in favor of the other.
Redefine `ErrorKind::Other` and stop using it in std.
This implements the idea I shared yesterday in the libs meeting when we were discussing how to handle adding new `ErrorKind`s to the standard library: This redefines `Other` to be for *user defined errors only*, and changes all uses of `Other` in the standard library to a `#[doc(hidden)]` and permanently `#[unstable]` `ErrorKind` that users can not match on. This ensures that adding `ErrorKind`s at a later point in time is not a breaking change, since the user couldn't match on these errors anyway. This way, we use the `#[non_exhaustive]` property of the enum in a more effective way.
Open questions:
- How do we check this change doesn't cause too much breakage? Will a crate run help and be enough?
- How do we ensure we don't accidentally start using `Other` again in the standard library? We don't have a `pub(not crate)` or `#[deprecated(in this crate only)]`.

For `HashSet` and `HashMap`, this simply copies the comment from

For `BTreeSet` and `BTreeMap`, this adds an additional guarantee that

it makes sense to provide this guarantee for `retain` as well.
The omission of Sink: Default is causing me a slight inconvenience in

Add `io::Cursor::{remaining, remaining_slice, is_empty}`
Tracking issue: #86369
I came across an inconvenience when answering the following [Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67831170) question.
To get the remaining slice you have to call `buff.fill_buf().unwrap()`. Which in my opinion doesn't really tell you what is returned (in the context of Cursor). To improve readability and convenience when using Cursor i propose adding the method `remaining`.
The next thing i found inconvenient (unnecessary long) was detecting if the cursor reached the end. There are a few ways this can be achieved right now:
- `buff.fill_buf().unwrap().is_empty()`
- `buff.position() >= buff.get_ref().len()`
- `buff.bytes().next().is_none()`
Which all seem a bit unintuitive, hidden in trait documentations or just a bit long for such a simple task.
Therefor i propose another method called `is_empty`, maybe with another name, since this one may leave room for interpretation on what really is empty (the underlying slice, the remaining slice or maybe the position).
Since it seemed easier to create this PR instead of an RFC i did that, if an RFC is wanted, i can close this PR and write an RFC first.

This splits out the platform-specific implementation of `available_concurrency` to the corresponding platforms under `sys`. No changes are made to the implementation.
Tidy didn't lint against this code being originally added outside of `sys` because of a bug (see #84677), this PR also reverts the exclusion that was introduced in that bugfix.
Tracking issue of `available_concurrency`: #74479
Add MIR pass to lower call to `core::slice::len` into `Len` operand
During some larger experiment with range analysis I've found that code like `let l = slice.len()` produces different MIR then one found in bound checks. This optimization pass replaces terminators that are calls to `core::slice::len` with just a MIR operand and Goto terminator.
It uses some heuristics to remove the outer borrow that is made to call `core::slice::len`, but I assume it can be eliminated, just didn't find how.
Would like to express my gratitude to `@oli-obk` who helped me a lot on Zullip
Move `OsStringExt` and `OsStrExt` to `std::os`
Moves the `OsStringExt` and `OsStrExt` traits and implementations from `sys_common` to `os`. `sys_common` is for abstractions over `sys` and shouldn't really contain publicly exported items.
This does introduce some duplication: the traits and implementations are now duplicated in `unix`, `wasi`, `hermit`, and `sgx`. However, I would argue that this duplication is no different to how something like `MetadataExt` is duplicated in `linux`, `vxworkx`, `redox`, `solaris` etc. The duplication also matches the fact that the traits on different platforms are technically distinct types: any platform is free to add it's own extra methods to the extension trait.
Change entry point to 🛡️ against 💥💥-payloads
Guard against panic payloads panicking within entrypoints, where it is
UB to do so.
Note that there are a number of tradeoffs to consider. For instance, I
considered guarding against accidental panics inside the `rt::init` and
`rt::cleanup` code as well, as it is not all that obvious these may not
panic, but doing so would mean that we initialize certain thread-local
slots unconditionally, which has its own problems.
Fixes#86030
r? `@m-ou-se`
Guard against panic payloads panicking within entrypoints, where it is
UB to do so.
Note that there are a number of implementation approaches to consider.
Some simpler, some more complicated. This particular solution is nice in
that it also guards against accidental implementation issues in
various pieces of runtime code, something we cannot prevent statically
right now.
Fixes#86030
Add has_data_left() to BufRead
This is a continuation of #40747 and also addresses #40745. The problem with the previous PR was that it had "eof" in its method name. This PR uses a more descriptive method name, but I'm open to changing it.
Dump mingw-64's error codes into our source tree.
I have verified with these runes:
$ f=library/std/src/sys/windows/c/errors.rs
$ diff -ub <(git-cat-file blob HEAD~:$f | sort) <(cat $f | perl -pe 's/WSABASEERR \+ (\d+)/10000 + $1/e' |sort) |grep ^- |less
that this does not change any existing values.

We're going to add many more of these.
This commit is pure code motion, plus the necessary administrivia, as
I have veried with the following runes:
$ git-diff HEAD~ | grep '^+' |sort >plus
$ git-diff HEAD~ | grep '^-' | perl -pe 's/^-/+/' |sort >min
$ diff -ub min plus |less
The output is precisely the expected `mod` and `use` directives.

DWORD is a type alias for u32, so this makes no difference.
But this entry is anomalous and in my forthcoming commits I am going
to import many errors wholesale, and I spotted that my wholesale
import didn't match what was here.

Rely on libc for correct integer types in os/unix/net/ancillary.rs.
This PR is a small maintainability improvement. It simplifies `unix/net/ancillary.rs` in `std` by removing the `cfg_ifs` for casting to the correct integer type, and just rely on libc to define the struct correctly.
Specialize `io::Bytes::size_hint` for more types
Improve the result of `<io::Bytes as Iterator>::size_hint` for some readers. I did not manage to specialize `SizeHint` for `io::Cursor`
Side question: would it be interesting for `io::Read` to have an optional `size_hint` method ?
Linear interpolation
#71016 is a previous attempt at implementation that was closed by the author. I decided to reuse the feature request issue (#71015) as a tracking issue. A member of the rust-lang org will have to edit the original post to be formatted correctly as I am not the issue's original author.
The common name `lerp` is used because it is the term used by most code in a wide variety of contexts; it also happens to be the recently chosen name of the function that was added to C++20.
To ensure symmetry as a method, this breaks the usual ordering of the method from `lerp(a, b, t)` to `t.lerp(a, b)`. This makes the most sense to me personally, and there will definitely be discussion before stabilisation anyway.
Implementing lerp "correctly" is very dififcult even though it's a very common building-block used in all sorts of applications. A good prior reading is [this proposal](http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2018/p0811r2.html#linear-interpolation) for the C++20 lerp which talks about the various guarantees, which I've simplified down to:
1. Exactness: `(0.0).lerp(start, end) == start` and `(1.0).lerp(start, end) == end`
2. Consistency: `anything.lerp(x, x) == x`
3. Monotonicity: once you go up don't go down
Fun story: the version provided in that proposal, from what I understand, isn't actually monotonic.
I messed around with a *lot* of different lerp implementations because I kind of got a bit obsessed and I ultimately landed on one that uses the fused `mul_add` instruction. Floating-point lerp lore is hard to come by, so, just trust me when I say that this ticks all the boxes. I'm only 90% certain that it's monotonic, but I'm sure that people who care deeply about this will be there to discuss before stabilisation.
The main reason for using `mul_add` is that, in general, it ticks more boxes with fewer branches to be "correct." Although it will be slower on architectures without the fused `mul_add`, that's becoming more and more rare and I have a feeling that most people who will find themselves needing `lerp` will also have an efficient `mul_add` instruction available.
Rename IoSlice(Mut)::advance to advance_slice and add IoSlice(Mut)::advance
Also changes the signature of `advance_slice` to accept a `&mut &mut [IoSlice]`, not returning anything. This will better match the `IoSlice::advance` function.

Link reference in `dyn` keyword documentation
The "read more" sentence formatted "object safety" as inline code
instead of providing a link to more information. This PR adds a link
to the Reference about this matter, as well as the page regarding trait
objects.
---
We could also put these links in the very first line (instead of the link to the
Book) and in the first paragraph which mentions the "object safe" requirement.
Personally, I think it's good to keep the link to the Book up-front as it's more
accessible than the Reference.
optimize Eq implementation for paths
Filesystems generally have a tree-ish structure which means paths are more likely to share a prefix than a suffix. Absolute paths are especially prone to share long prefixes.
quick benchmark consisting of a search through through a vec containing the absolute paths of all (1850) files in `compiler/`:
```
# old
test path::tests::bench_path_cmp ... bench: 227,407 ns/iter (+/- 2,162)
# new
test path::tests::bench_path_cmp ... bench: 64,976 ns/iter (+/- 1,142)
```
