Line numbers of multiply-inlined functions were fixed in #114643 by using a
single DISubprogram. That, however, triggered assertions because parameters
weren't deduplicated. The "solution" to that in #115417 was to insert a
DILexicalScope below the DISubprogram and parent all of the parameters to that
scope. That fixed the assertion, but debuggers (including gdb and lldb) don't
recognize variables that are not parented to the subprogram itself as parameters,
even if they are emitted with DW_TAG_formal_parameter.
Consider the program:
use std::env;
fn square(n: i32) -> i32 {
n * n
}
fn square_no_inline(n: i32) -> i32 {
n * n
}
fn main() {
let x = square(env::vars().count() as i32);
let y = square_no_inline(env::vars().count() as i32);
println!("{x} == {y}");
}
When making a release build with debug=2 and rustc 1.82.0-nightly (8b3870784 2024-08-07)

This issue is particularly annoying because it removes arguments from stack traces.
The DWARF for the inlined function looks like this:

That DW_TAG_lexical_block inhibits every debugger I've tested from recognizing
'n' as a parameter.
This patch removes the additional lexical scope. Parameters can be easily
deduplicated by a tuple of their scope and the argument index, at the trivial
cost of taking a Hash + Eq bound on DIScope.
add test ensuring simd codegen checks don't run when a static assertion failed
stdarch relies on this to ensure that SIMD indices are in bounds.
I would love to know why this works, but I can't figure out where codegen decides to not codegen a function if a required-const does not evaluate. `@oli-obk` `@bjorn3` do you have any idea?
move required_consts check to general post-mono-check function
This factors some code that is common between the interpreter and the codegen backends into shared helper functions. Also as a side-effect the interpreter now uses the same `eval` functions as everyone else to get the evaluated MIR constants.
Also this is in preparation for another post-mono check that will be needed for (the current hackfix for) https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/115709: ensuring that all locals are dynamically sized.
I didn't expect this to change diagnostics, but it's just cycle errors that change.

Support for native WASM exceptions
### Motivation
Currently, rustc does not support native WASM exceptions. It does support JavaScript based exceptions for the wasm32-emscripten-target, but this requires back&forth with javascript for many calls, which is very slow.
Native wasm support for exceptions is quite common: Clang+LLVM implemented them years ago, and all major browsers support them by now. They enable zero-cost exceptions, at least with regard to runtime-performance-cost. They may increase startup-time and code size, though.
### Important: This PR does not change default behaviour
Exceptions usually add a lot of code in form of unwinding blocks, increasing the binary size. Most users probably do not want that, especially which regard to web development.
Therefore, wasm exceptions play a similar role as WASM-threads: rustc should support them, like clang does, but users who want to use it have to use some command-line magic like rustflags to opt in.
### What does this PR do?
As stated above, the default behaviour is not changed. It is already possible to opt-in into wasm exceptions using the command line. Unfortunately, the LLVM IR is invalid and the LLVM backend crashes.
```
rustc <sourcefile>
--target wasm32-unknown-unknown
-C panic=unwind
-C llvm-args=-wasm-enable-eh
-C target-feature=+exception-handling
```
As it turns out, LLVM is quite picky when it comes to IR for exception handling. If the IR does not look exactly like it should, some LLVM-assertions fail and the code generation crashes.
This PR adds the necessary modifications to the code generator to make it work. It also adds `exception-handling` as a wasm target feature.
### What this PR does not / what is missing
This PR is not a full fledges solution. It is the first step. A few parts are still missing; however, it is already useable (see next section).
Currently missing:
* The std library has to be adapted. Currently, only [no_std] crates work
* Usually, nested exceptions abort the program (i.e. a panic during the cleanup of another panic). This is currently not done yet.
- Currently, code inside cleanup handlers does not unwind
- To fix this requires a little more work: The code generator currently maintains a single terminate block per function for this. Unfortunately, WASM requires funclet based exception handling. Therefore, we need to create a terminate block per funclet. This is probably not a big problem, but I want to keep this PR simple.
### How to use the compiler given this PR?
This PR does not add any command line flags or features. It uses those which are already there. To compile with exceptions enabled, you need
* to set the panic strategy to unwind, i.e. `-C panic=unwind`
* to enable the exception-handling target feature, i.e. `-C target-feature=+exception-handling`
* to tell LLVM about the exception handling, i.e. `-C llvm-args=-wasm-enable-eh`
Since the standard library has not been adapted, you can only use it in [no_std] crates as of now. The intrinsic `core::intrinsics::r#try` works. To throw exceptions, you need the ```@llvm.wasm.throw``` intrinsic.
I created a sample application which works for me: https://github.com/mirkootter/rust-wasm-demos
This example can be run at https://webassembly.sh
These tend to have special handling in a bunch of places anyway, so the variant helps remember that. And I think it's easier to grok than non-Scalar Aggregates sometimes being `Immediates` (like I got wrong and caused 109992). As a minor bonus, it means we don't need to generate poison LLVM values for them to pass around in `OperandValue::Immediate`s.
Nicer ICE for #67981
Provides a slightly nicer ICE for #67981, documenting the problem. A proper fix will be necessary before `#![feature(unsized_fn_params)]` can be stabilized.
The problem is that the design of the `"rust-call"` ABI is fundamentally not compatible with `unsized_fn_params`. `"rust-call"` functions need to collect their arguments into a tuple, but if the arguments are not `Sized`, said tuple is potentially not even a valid type—and if it is, it requires `alloca` to create.
``@rustbot`` label +A-abi +A-codegen +F-unboxed_closures +F-unsized_fn_params
Unify terminology used in unwind action and terminator, and reflect
the fact that a nounwind panic is triggered instead of an immediate
abort is triggered for this terminator.
