Improve the function pointer docs
This is #97842 but for function pointers instead of tuples. The concept is basically the same.
* Reduce duplicate impls; show `fn (T₁, T₂, …, Tₙ)` and include a sentence saying that there exists up to twelve of them.
* Show `Copy` and `Clone`.
* Show auto traits like `Send` and `Sync`, and blanket impls like `Any`.

core::any: replace some generic types with impl Trait
This gives a cleaner API since the caller only specifies the concrete type they usually want to.

Fix `Skip::next` for non-fused inner iterators
`iter.skip(n).next()` will currently call `nth` and `next` in succession on `iter`, without checking whether `nth` exhausts the iterator. Using `?` to propagate a `None` value returned by `nth` avoids this.
Use split_once in FromStr docs
Current implementation:
```rust
fn from_str(s: &str) -> Result<Self, Self::Err> {
let coords: Vec<&str> = s.trim_matches(|p| p == '(' || p == ')' )
.split(',')
.collect();
let x_fromstr = coords[0].parse::<i32>()?;
let y_fromstr = coords[1].parse::<i32>()?;
Ok(Point { x: x_fromstr, y: y_fromstr })
}
```
Creating the vector is not necessary, `split_once` does the job better.
Alternatively we could also remove `trim_matches` with `strip_prefix` and `strip_suffix`:
```rust
let (x, y) = s
.strip_prefix('(')
.and_then(|s| s.strip_suffix(')'))
.and_then(|s| s.split_once(','))
.unwrap();
```
The question is how much 'correctness' is too much and distracts from the example. In a real implementation you would also not unwrap (or originally access the vector without bounds checks), but implementing a custom Error and adding a `From<ParseIntError>` and implementing the `Error` trait adds a lot of code to the example which is not relevant to the `FromStr` trait.
Add assertion that `transmute_copy`'s U is not larger than T
This is called out as a safety requirement in the docs, but because knowing this can be done at compile time and constant folded (just like the `align_of` branch is removed), we can just panic here.
I've looked at the asm (using `cargo-asm`) of a function that both is correct and incorrect, and the panic is completely removed, or is unconditional, without needing build-std.
I don't expect this to cause much breakage in the wild. I scanned through https://miri.saethlin.dev/ub for issues that would look like this (error: Undefined Behavior: memory access failed: alloc1768 has size 1, so pointer to 8 bytes starting at offset 0 is out-of-bounds), but couldn't find any.
That doesn't rule out it happening in crates tested that fail earlier for some other reason, though, but it indicates that doing this is rare, if it happens at all. A crater run for this would need to be build and test, since this is a runtime thing.
Also added a few more transmute_copy tests.
Rearrange slice::split_mut to remove bounds check
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/86313
Turns out that all we need to do here is reorder the bounds checks to convince LLVM that all the bounds checks can be removed. It seems like LLVM just fails to propagate the original length information past the first bounds check and into the second one. With this implementation it doesn't need to, each check can be proven inbounds based on the one immediately previous.
I've gradually convinced myself that this implementation is unambiguously better based on the above logic, but maybe this is still deserving of a codegen test?
Also the mentioned borrowck limitation no longer seems to exist.
Add a special case for align_offset /w stride != 1
This generalizes the previous `stride == 1` special case to apply to any
situation where the requested alignment is divisible by the stride. This
in turn allows the test case from #98809 produce ideal assembly, along
the lines of:
leaq 15(%rdi), %rax
andq $-16, %rax
This also produces pretty high quality code for situations where the
alignment of the input pointer isn’t known:
pub unsafe fn ptr_u32(slice: *const u32) -> *const u32 {
slice.offset(slice.align_offset(16) as isize)
}
// =>
movl %edi, %eax
andl $3, %eax
leaq 15(%rdi), %rcx
andq $-16, %rcx
subq %rdi, %rcx
shrq $2, %rcx
negq %rax
sbbq %rax, %rax
orq %rcx, %rax
leaq (%rdi,%rax,4), %rax
Here LLVM is smart enough to replace the `usize::MAX` special case with
a branch-less bitwise-OR approach, where the mask is constructed using
the neg and sbb instructions. This appears to work across various
architectures I’ve tried.
This change ends up introducing more branches and code in situations
where there is less knowledge of the arguments. For example when the
requested alignment is entirely unknown. This use-case was never really
a focus of this function, so I’m not particularly worried, especially
since llvm-mca is saying that the new code is still appreciably faster,
despite all the new branching.
Fixes#98809.

Enforce that layout size fits in isize in Layout
As it turns out, enforcing this _in APIs that already enforce `usize` overflow_ is fairly trivial. `Layout::from_size_align_unchecked` continues to "allow" sizes which (when rounded up) would overflow `isize`, but these are now declared as library UB for `Layout`, meaning that consumers of `Layout` no longer have to check this before making an allocation.
(Note that this is "immediate library UB;" IOW it is valid for a future release to make this immediate "language UB," and there is an extant patch to do so, to allow Miri to catch this misuse.)
See also #95252, [Zulip discussion](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/219381-t-libs/topic/Layout.20Isn't.20Enforcing.20The.20isize.3A.3AMAX.20Rule).

I am wholy spiritually defeated by the fact that _liballoc_ of all places is getting this stuff wrong. This isn't throwing shade at the folks who implemented these Rc features, but rather a statement of how impractical it is to expect anyone out in the wider ecosystem to enforce them if _some of the most audited rust code in the library that defines the very notion of allocating memory_ can't even reliably do it.

> We need the nuclear option of Layout enforcing this rule. Code that breaks this rule is _deeply_ broken and any "regressions" from changing Layout's contract is a _correctness_ fix. Anyone who disagrees and is sufficiently motivated can go around our backs but the standard library should 100% refuse to enable them.
cc also `@RalfJung` `@rust-lang/wg-allocators.` Even though this technically supersedes #95252, those potential failure points should almost certainly still get nicer panics than just "unwrap failed" (which they would get by this PR).
It might additionally be worth recommending to users of the `Layout` API that they should ideally use `.and_then`/`?` to complete the entire layout calculation, and then `panic!` from a single location at the end of `Layout` manipulation, to reduce the overhead of the checks and optimizations preserving the exact location of each `panic` which are conceptually just one failure: allocation too big.
Probably deserves a T-lang and/or T-libs-api FCP (this technically solidifies the [objects must be no larger than `isize::MAX`](https://rust-lang.github.io/unsafe-code-guidelines/layout/scalars.html#isize-and-usize) rule further, and the UCG document says this hasn't been RFCd) and a crater run. Ideally, no code exists that will start failing with this addition; if it does, it was _likely_ (but not certainly) causing UB.
Changes the raw_vec allocation path, thus deserves a perf run as well.
I suggest hiding whitespace-only changes in the diff view.

Allow arithmetic and certain bitwise ops on AtomicPtr
This is mainly to support migrating from `AtomicUsize`, for the strict provenance experiment.
This is a pretty dubious set of APIs, but it should be sufficient to allow code that's using `AtomicUsize` to manipulate a tagged pointer atomically. It's under a new feature gate, `#![feature(strict_provenance_atomic_ptr)]`, but I'm not sure if it needs its own tracking issue. I'm happy to make one, but it's not clear that it's needed.
I'm unsure if it needs changes in the various non-LLVM backends. Because we just cast things to integers anyway (and were already doing so), I doubt it.

ptr::copy and ptr::swap are doing untyped copies
The consensus in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63159 seemed to be that these operations should be "untyped", i.e., they should treat the data as raw bytes, should work when these bytes violate the validity invariant of `T`, and should exactly preserve the initialization state of the bytes that are being copied. This is already somewhat implied by the description of "copying/swapping size*N bytes" (rather than "N instances of `T`").
The implementations mostly already work that way (well, for LLVM's intrinsics the documentation is not precise enough to say what exactly happens to poison, but if this ever gets clarified to something that would *not* perfectly preserve poison, then I strongly assume there will be some way to make a copy that *does* perfectly preserve poison). However, I had to adjust `swap_nonoverlapping`; after ``@scottmcm's`` [recent changes](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/94212), that one (sometimes) made a typed copy. (Note that `mem::swap`, which works on mutable references, is unchanged. It is documented as "swapping the values at two mutable locations", which to me strongly indicates that it is indeed typed. It is also safe and can rely on `&mut T` pointing to a valid `T` as part of its safety invariant.)
On top of adding a test (that will be run by Miri), this PR then also adjusts the documentation to indeed stably promise the untyped semantics. I assume this means the PR has to go through t-libs (and maybe t-lang?) FCP.

[core] add `Exclusive` to sync
(discussed here: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/219381-t-libs/topic/Adding.20.60SyncWrapper.60.20to.20std)
`Exclusive` is a wrapper that exclusively allows mutable access to the inner value if you have exclusive access to the wrapper. It acts like a compile time mutex, and hold an unconditional `Sync` implementation.
## Justification for inclusion into std
- This wrapper unblocks actual problems:
- The example that I hit was a vector of `futures::future::BoxFuture`'s causing a central struct in a script to be non-`Sync`. To work around it, you either write really difficult code, or wrap the futures in a needless mutex.
- Easy to maintain: this struct is as simple as a wrapper can get, and its `Sync` implementation has very clear reasoning
- Fills a gap: `&/&mut` are to `RwLock` as `Exclusive` is to `Mutex`
## Public Api
```rust
// core::sync
#[derive(Default)]
struct Exclusive<T: ?Sized> { ... }
impl<T: ?Sized> Sync for Exclusive {}
impl<T> Exclusive<T> {
pub const fn new(t: T) -> Self;
pub const fn into_inner(self) -> T;
}
impl<T: ?Sized> Exclusive<T> {
pub const fn get_mut(&mut self) -> &mut T;
pub const fn get_pin_mut(Pin<&mut self>) -> Pin<&mut T>;
pub const fn from_mut(&mut T) -> &mut Exclusive<T>;
pub const fn from_pin_mut(Pin<&mut T>) -> Pin<&mut Exclusive<T>>;
}
impl<T: Future> Future for Exclusive { ... }
impl<T> From<T> for Exclusive<T> { ... }
impl<T: ?Sized> Debug for Exclusive { ... }
```
## Naming
This is a big bikeshed, but I felt that `Exclusive` captured its general purpose quite well.
## Stability and location
As this is so simple, it can be in `core`. I feel that it can be stabilized quite soon after it is merged, if the libs teams feels its reasonable to add. Also, I don't really know how unstable feature work in std/core's codebases, so I might need help fixing them
## Tips for review
The docs probably are the thing that needs to be reviewed! I tried my best, but I'm sure people have more experience than me writing docs for `Core`
### Implementation:
The API is mostly pulled from https://docs.rs/sync_wrapper/latest/sync_wrapper/struct.SyncWrapper.html (which is apache 2.0 licenesed), and the implementation is trivial:
- its an unsafe justification for pinning
- its an unsafe justification for the `Sync` impl (mostly reasoned about by ````@danielhenrymantilla```` here: https://github.com/Actyx/sync_wrapper/pull/2)
- and forwarding impls, starting with derivable ones and `Future`
Simplify memory ordering intrinsics
This changes the names of the atomic intrinsics to always fully include their memory ordering arguments.
```diff
- atomic_cxchg
+ atomic_cxchg_seqcst_seqcst
- atomic_cxchg_acqrel
+ atomic_cxchg_acqrel_release
- atomic_cxchg_acqrel_failrelaxed
+ atomic_cxchg_acqrel_relaxed
// And so on.
```
- `seqcst` is no longer implied
- The failure ordering on chxchg is no longer implied in some cases, but now always explicitly part of the name.
- `release` is no longer shortened to just `rel`. That was especially confusing, since `relaxed` also starts with `rel`.
- `acquire` is no longer shortened to just `acq`, such that the names now all match the `std::sync::atomic::Ordering` variants exactly.
- This now allows for more combinations on the compare exchange operations, such as `atomic_cxchg_acquire_release`, which is necessary for #68464.
- This PR only exposes the new possibilities through unstable intrinsics, but not yet through the stable API. That's for [a separate PR](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98383) that requires an FCP.

Refactor iter adapters with less macros
Just some code cleanup. Introduced a util `and_then_or_clear` for each of chain, flatten and fuse iter adapter impls. This reduces code nicely for flatten, but admittedly the other modules are more of a lateral move replacing macros with a function. But I think consistency across the modules and avoiding macros when possible is good.
libcore tests: avoid int2ptr casts
We don't need any of these pointers to actually be dereferenceable so using `ptr::invalid` should be fine. And then we can run Miri with strict provenance enforcement on the tests.
This commit adds new methods that combine sequences of existing
formatting methods.
- `Formatter::debug_{tuple,struct}_field[12345]_finish`, equivalent to a
`Formatter::debug_{tuple,struct}` + N x `Debug{Tuple,Struct}::field` +
`Debug{Tuple,Struct}::finish` call sequence.
- `Formatter::debug_{tuple,struct}_fields_finish` is similar, but can
handle any number of fields by using arrays.
These new methods are all marked as `doc(hidden)` and unstable. They are
intended for the compiler's own use.
Special-casing up to 5 fields gives significantly better performance
results than always using arrays (as was tried in #95637).
The commit also changes the `Debug` deriving code to use these new methods. For
example, where the old `Debug` code for a struct with two fields would be like
this:
```
fn fmt(&self, f: &mut ::core::fmt::Formatter) -> ::core::fmt::Result {
match *self {
Self {
f1: ref __self_0_0,
f2: ref __self_0_1,
} => {
let debug_trait_builder = &mut ::core::fmt::Formatter::debug_struct(f, "S2");
let _ = ::core::fmt::DebugStruct::field(debug_trait_builder, "f1", &&(*__self_0_0));
let _ = ::core::fmt::DebugStruct::field(debug_trait_builder, "f2", &&(*__self_0_1));
::core::fmt::DebugStruct::finish(debug_trait_builder)
}
}
}
```
the new code is like this:
```
fn fmt(&self, f: &mut ::core::fmt::Formatter) -> ::core::fmt::Result {
match *self {
Self {
f1: ref __self_0_0,
f2: ref __self_0_1,
} => ::core::fmt::Formatter::debug_struct_field2_finish(
f,
"S2",
"f1",
&&(*__self_0_0),
"f2",
&&(*__self_0_1),
),
}
}
```
This shrinks the code produced for `Debug` instances
considerably, reducing compile times and binary sizes.

clarify how Rust atomics correspond to C++ atomics
``@cbeuw`` noted in https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/pull/1963 that the correspondence between C++ atomics and Rust atomics is not quite as obvious as one might think, since in Rust I can use `get_mut` to treat previously non-atomic data as atomic. However, I think using C++20 `atomic_ref`, we can establish a suitable relation between the two -- or do you see problems with that ``@cbeuw?`` (I recall you said there was some issue, but it was deep inside that PR and Github makes it impossible to find...)

This is an implementation of [RFC 3192](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3192) ~~(which is yet to be merged, thus why this is a draft PR)~~. It adds an API for type-driven requests and provision of data from trait objects. A primary use case is for the `Error` trait, though that is not implemented in this PR. The only major difference to the RFC is that the functionality is added to the `any` module, rather than being in a sibling `provide_any` module (as discussed in the RFC thread).
