bors 83f2667fa2 Auto merge of #27434 - jeehoonkang:master, r=Gankro
In Section 3.2, TARPL says that "standard allocators (including jemalloc, the one used by default in Rust) generally consider passing in 0 for the size of an allocation as Undefined Behaviour."
However, the C standard and jemalloc manual says allocating zero bytes
should succeed:

- C11 7.22.3 paragraph 1: "If the size of the space requested is zero, the behavior is implementation-defined: either a null pointer is returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero value, except that the returned pointer shall not be used to access an object."
- [jemalloc manual](http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=jemalloc&sektion=3): "The malloc and calloc functions return a	pointer	to the allocated memory if successful; otherwise a NULL pointer is returned and errno is set to ENOMEM."
    + Note that the description for `allocm` says "Behavior	is undefined if	size is 0," but it is an experimental API.

bors 4278b5f03b Auto merge of #27545 - apasel422:btree-range, r=Gankro
This permits collections with `String` keys to be ranged over with
`&str` bounds. The `K` defaults for `Min` and `Max` permit the default
type parameter fallback to work with things like

```rust
use std::collections::{BTreeSet, Bound};
let set = BTreeSet::<String>::new();
set.range(Bound::Included("a"), Bound::Unbounded);
```

Without the defaults, the type of the maximum bound would be
unconstrained.

bors 0dc2910c9c Auto merge of #27458 - mitaa:local_cpath, r=nikomatsakis
This changes the current behaviour for two cases (that I know of)
```rust
mod foo {
    extern crate bar;
}
// `bar::` changes to `foo::bar::`
```

```rust
extern crate bar as quux;
// `bar::` changes to `quux::`
```
For example:
```rust
mod foo {
    extern crate core;
}

fn assert_clone<T>() where T : Clone { }

fn main() {
    assert_clone::<foo::core::atomic::AtomicBool>();
    // error: the trait `core::clone::Clone` is not implemented for the type `core::atomic::AtomicBool` [E0277]
    // changes to
    // error: the trait `foo::core::clone::Clone` is not implemented for the type `foo::core::atomic::AtomicBool` [E0277]
}
```

Notably the following test case broke:
```rust
 #[bench]
 fn bar(x: isize) { }
 //~^ ERROR mismatched types
 //~| expected `fn(&mut test::Bencher)`
 // changed to
 //~| expected `fn(&mut __test::test::Bencher)`
```
If a crate is linked multiple times the path with the least segments is stored.
Partially addresses #1920. (this doesn't solve the issue raised about re-exports)

Manish Goregaokar b1dc2c5094 Rollup merge of #27519 - JanLikar:rearrange-patterns, r=steveklabnik
- Move "Destructuring" after "Multiple patterns", because some of
    later sections include examples which make use of destructuring.

  - Move "Ignoring bindings" after "Destructoring", because the former
    features Result<T,E> destructuring. Some of examples in later
    sections use "_" and "..", so "Ignoring bindings" must be
    positioned before them.

  - Fix #27347 by moving "Ref and mut ref" before "Ranges" and
    "Bindings", because "Bindings" section includes a somewhat
    difficult example, which also makes use of "ref" and "mut ref"
    operators.

bors 76ff835ca0 Auto merge of #27503 - c-nixon:master, r=steveklabnik
I was reading through the docs and came across a section that felt awkward.

I've tried to improve the flow by splitting up and reversing the explanations of
Arc and Mutex with some example code in between.

The "This would have have happened" bit is unfortunate but I couldn't see any
other way to illustrate it. The compiler errors didn't really help tell the
story in this particular instance so it still feels a bit forced. However I do think it's
an a small improvement...

Does anyone have any other ideas that might flow better?

bors 6a3545ef05 Auto merge of #27439 - vberger:more_perseverant_resolve, r=nrc
(This is a second try at #26242. This time I think things should be ok.)

The current algorithm handling import resolutions works sequentially, handling imports in the order they appear in the source file, and blocking/bailing on the first one generating an error/being unresolved.

This can lead to situations where the order of the `use` statements can make the difference between "this code compiles" and "this code fails on an unresolved import" (see #18083 for example). This is especially true when considering glob imports.

This PR changes the behaviour of the algorithm to instead try to resolve all imports in a module. If one fails, it is recorded and the next one is tried (instead of directly giving up). Also, all errors generated are stored (and not reported directly).

The main loop of the algorithms guaranties that the algorithm will always finish: if a round of resolution does not resolve anything new, we are stuck and give up. At this point, the new version of the algorithm will display all errors generated by the last round of resolve. This way we are sure to not silence relevant errors or help messages, but also to not give up too early.

**As a consequence, the import resolution becomes independent of the order in which the `use` statements are written in the source files.** I personally don't see any situations where this could be a problem, but this might need some thought.

I passed `rpass` and `cfail` tests on my computer, and now am compiling a full stage2 compiler to ensure the crates reporting errors in my previous attempts still build correctly. I guess once I have checked it, this will need a crater run?

Fixes #18083.

bors dbe415a4a7 Auto merge of #27393 - alexcrichton:no-std-changes, r=brson
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1184][rfc] which tweaks the behavior of
the `#![no_std]` attribute and adds a new `#![no_core]` attribute. The
`#![no_std]` attribute now injects `extern crate core` at the top of the crate
as well as the libcore prelude into all modules (in the same manner as the
standard library's prelude). The `#![no_core]` attribute disables both std and
core injection.

bors efdbc0ec7e Auto merge of #27351 - pnkfelix:dst-size-and-align-issue-27023, r=nikomatsakis
Change the behavior of the glue code emitted for `size_and_align_of_dst`.

This thus changes the behavior of `std::mem::size_of_val` and `std::mem::align_of_val`.  It tries to move us towards a world where the following property holds:

Given type `T` implements `Trait` and a value `b: Box<T>`, where `std::mem::size_of::<T>()` returns `k`, then:

 * `std::mem::size_of_val(b)` returns `k`
 * `std::mem::size_of_val(b as Box<Trait>)` returns `k`

Note that one might legitimately question whether the above property *should* hold.  The property certainly does not hold today, as illustrated by #27023.

(A follow-up task is to make various tests that check that the above property holds for a wide variety of types ... I chose not to invest effort in writing such a test before we actually determine that the above property is desirable.)

nmatsakis and pnkfelix agree that this PR does not require an RFC.  cc @rust-lang/lang (since others may disagree).

(It also *might* break code, though it is hard for me to imagine that it could break code that wasn't already going to assert-fail when run in e.g. debug builds...)

Fix issue #27023

Also, this (or something like it) is a prerequisite for *fixing`make check` on `--enable-optimize --enable-debug` builds*

Add a new method `CommandExt::session_leader(&mut self, on: bool)` to create a new session (cf. `setsid(2)`) for the child process. This means that the child is the leader of a new process group. The parent process remains the child reaper of the new process.

This is not enough to create a daemon process. The *init* process should be the child reaper of a daemon. This can be achieved if the parent process exit. Moreover, a daemon should not have a controlling terminal. To acheive this, a session leader (the child) must spawn another process (the daemon) in the same session.

This commit removes the injection of `std::env::args()` from `--test` expanded

hygienic because we can't assume that `std` exists at the top layer all the
