raw-dylib is a link kind that allows rustc to link against a library
without having any library files present.
This currently only exists on Windows. rustc will take all the symbols
from raw-dylib link blocks and put them in an import library, where they
can then be resolved by the linker.
While import libraries don't exist on ELF, it would still be convenient
to have this same functionality. Not having the libraries present at
build-time can be convenient for several reasons, especially
cross-compilation. With raw-dylib, code linking against a library can be
cross-compiled without needing to have these libraries available on the
build machine. If the libc crate makes use of this, it would allow
cross-compilation without having any libc available on the build
machine. This is not yet possible with this implementation, at least
against libc's like glibc that use symbol versioning.
The raw-dylib kind could be extended with support for symbol versioning
in the future.
This implementation is very experimental and I have not tested it very
well. I have tested it for a toy example and the lz4-sys crate, where it
was able to successfully link a binary despite not having a
corresponding library at build-time.
`compiler_builtins` is currently injected as `extern crate
compiler_builtins as _`. This has made gating via diagnostics difficult
because it appears in the crate graph as a non-private dependency, and
there isn't an easy way to differentiate between the injected AST and
user-specified `extern crate compiler_builtins`.
Resolve this by injecting `compiler_builtins` during postprocessing
rather than early in the AST. Most of the time this isn't even needed
because it shows up in `std` or `core`'s crate graph, but injection is
still needed to ensure `#![no_core]` works correctly.
A similar change was attempted at [1] but this encountered errors
building `proc_macro` and `rustc-std-workspace-std`. Similar failures
showed up while working on this patch, which were traced back to
`compiler_builtins` showing up in the graph twice (once via dependency
and once via injection). This is resolved by not injecting if a
`#![compiler_builtins]` crate already exists.

Print the crates not available as static
This prints out the crates not available to be statically linked when static linking is preferred and we run into an error with duplicated crates.
As bonus this makes the errors when failing to load a proc macro more
informative to match the backend loading errors. In addition it makes it
slightly easier to patch rustc to work on platforms that don't support
dynamic linking like wasm.
They've been deprecated for four years.
This commit includes the following changes.
- It eliminates the `rustc_plugin_impl` crate.
- It changes the language used for lints in
`compiler/rustc_driver_impl/src/lib.rs` and
`compiler/rustc_lint/src/context.rs`. External lints are now called
"loaded" lints, rather than "plugins" to avoid confusion with the old
plugins. This only has a tiny effect on the output of `-W help`.
- E0457 and E0498 are no longer used.
- E0463 is narrowed, now only relating to unfound crates, not plugins.
- The `plugin` feature was moved from "active" to "removed".
- It removes the entire plugins chapter from the unstable book.
- It removes quite a few tests, mostly all of those in
`tests/ui-fulldeps/plugin/`.
Closes#29597.
This reverts commit b913f5593d.
CI builds with profile=nightly, causing different test output.
Making the output depend on the release channel was not a great idea.
- remove useless commands from test Makefile
- do not unnecessarily remove metadata temporary files because they'll be managed by MaybeTempDir
- remove unused FailedRemove error introduced by this PR
If `-o -` or `--emit KIND=-` is provided, output will be written
to stdout instead. Binary output (`obj`, `llvm-bc`, `link` and
`metadata`) being written this way will result in an error unless
stdout is not a tty. Multiple output types going to stdout will
trigger an error too, as they will all be mixded together.
This makes it easier to open the messages file while developing on features.
