Pin bootstrap checksums and add a tool to update it automatically
⚠️⚠️ This is just a proactive hardening we're performing on the build system, and it's not prompted by any known compromise. If you're aware of security issues being exploited please [check out our responsible disclosure page](https://www.rust-lang.org/policies/security). ⚠️⚠️
---
This PR aims to improve Rust's supply chain security by pinning the checksums of the bootstrap compiler downloaded by `x.py`, preventing a compromised `static.rust-lang.org` from affecting building the compiler. The checksums are stored in `src/stage0.json`, which replaces `src/stage0.txt`. This PR also adds a tool to automatically update the bootstrap compiler.
The changes in this PR were originally discussed in [Zulip](https://zulip-archive.rust-lang.org/stream/241545-t-release/topic/pinning.20stage0.20hashes.html).
## Potential attack
Before this PR, an attacker who wanted to compromise the bootstrap compiler would "just" need to:
1. Gain write access to `static.rust-lang.org`, either by compromising DNS or the underlying storage.
2. Upload compromised binaries and corresponding `.sha256` files to `static.rust-lang.org`.
There is no signature verification in `x.py` as we don't want the build system to depend on GPG. Also, since the checksums were not pinned inside the repository, they were downloaded from `static.rust-lang.org` too: this only protected from accidental changes in `static.rust-lang.org` that didn't change the `*.sha256` files. The attack would allow the attacker to compromise past and future invocations of `x.py`.
## Mitigations introduced in this PR
This PR adds pinned checksums for all the bootstrap components in `src/stage0.json` instead of downloading the checksums from `static.rust-lang.org`. This changes the attack scenario to:
1. Gain write access to `static.rust-lang.org`, either by compromising DNS or the underlying storage.
2. Upload compromised binaries to `static.rust-lang.org`.
3. Land a (reviewed) change in the `rust-lang/rust` repository changing the pinned hashes.
Even with a successful attack, existing clones of the Rust repository won't be affected, and once the attack is detected reverting the pinned hashes changes should be enough to be protected from the attack. This also enables further mitigations to be implemented in following PRs, such as verifying signatures when pinning new checksums (removing the trust on first use aspect of this PR) and adding a check in CI making sure a PR updating the checksum has not been tampered with (see the future improvements section).
## Additional changes
There are additional changes implemented in this PR to enable the mitigation:
* The `src/stage0.txt` file has been replaced with `src/stage0.json`. The reasoning for the change is that there is existing tooling to read and manipulate JSON files compared to the custom format we were using before, and the slight challenge of manually editing JSON files (no comments, no trailing commas) are not a problem thanks to the new `bump-stage0`.
* A new tool has been added to the repository, `bump-stage0`. When invoked, the tool automatically calculates which release should be used as the bootstrap compiler given the current version and channel, gathers all the relevant checksums and updates `src/stage0.json`. The tool can be invoked by running:
```
./x.py run src/tools/bump-stage0
```
* Support for downloading releases from `https://dev-static.rust-lang.org` has been removed, as it's not possible to verify checksums there (it's customary to replace existing artifacts there if a rebuild is warranted). This will require a change to the release process to avoid bumping the bootstrap compiler on beta before the stable release.
## Future improvements
* Add signature verification as part of `bump-stage0`, which would require the attacker to also obtain the release signing keys in order to successfully compromise the bootstrap compiler. This would be fine to add now, as the burden of installing the tool to verify signatures would only be placed on whoever updates the bootstrap compiler, instead of everyone compiling Rust.
* Add a check on CI that ensures the checksums in `src/stage0.json` are the expected ones. If a PR changes the stage0 file CI should also run the `bump-stage0` tool and fail if the output in CI doesn't match the committed file. This prevents the PR author from tweaking the output of the tool manually, which would otherwise be close to impossible for a human to detect.
* Automate creating the PRs bumping the bootstrap compiler, by setting up a scheduled job in GitHub Actions that runs the tool and opens a PR.
* Investigate whether a similar mitigation can be done for "download from CI" components like the prebuilt LLVM.

Warn when [T; N].into_iter() is ambiguous in the new edition.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88475
In https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88475, a situation was found where `[T; N].into_iter()` becomes *ambiguous* in the new edition. This is different than the case where `(&[T; N]).into_iter()` resolves differently, which was the only case handled by the `array_into_iter` lint. This is almost identical to the new-traits-in-the-prelude problem. Effectively, due to the array-into-iter hack disappearing in Rust 2021, we effectively added `IntoIterator` to the 'prelude' in Rust 2021 specifically for arrays.
This modifies the prelude collisions lint to detect that case and emit a `array_into_iter` lint in that case.
Instead of updating global state to mark attributes as used,
we now explicitly emit a warning when an attribute is used in
an unsupported position. As a side effect, we are to emit more
detailed warning messages (instead of just a generic "unused" message).
`Session.check_name` is removed, since its only purpose was to mark
the attribute as used. All of the callers are modified to use
`Attribute.has_name`
Additionally, `AttributeType::AssumedUsed` is removed - an 'assumed
used' attribute is implemented by simply not performing any checks
in `CheckAttrVisitor` for a particular attribute.
We no longer emit unused attribute warnings for the `#[rustc_dummy]`
attribute - it's an internal attribute used for tests, so it doesn't
mark sense to treat it as 'unused'.
With this commit, a large source of global untracked state is removed.

Matthew's work on improving NLL's "higher-ranked subtype error"s
This PR rebases `@matthewjasper's` [branch](https://github.com/matthewjasper/rust/tree/nll-hrtb-errors) which has great work to fix the obscure higher-ranked subtype errors that are tracked in #57374.
These are a blocker to turning full NLLs on, and doing some internal cleanups to remove some of the old region code.
The goal is so `@nikomatsakis` can take a look at this early, and I'll then do my best to help do the changes and followup work to land this work, and move closer to turning off the migration mode.
I've only updated the branch and made it compile, removed a warning or two.

Update `polonius-engine` to 0.13.0
This PR updates the use of `polonius-engine` to the recently released 0.13.0:
- this version renamed a lot of relations to match the current terminology
- "illegal subset relationships errors" (AKA "subset errors" or "universal region errors" in rustc parlance) have been implemented in all variants, and therefore the `Hybrid` variant can be the rustc default once again
- some of the blessed expectations were updated: new tests have been added since the last time I updated the tests, diagnostics have changed, etc.
In particular:
- a few tests had trivial expectations changes such as basic diagnostics changes for the migrate-mode and full NLLs
- others were recursion and lengths limits which emits a file, and under the polonius compare-mode, the folder has a different name
- a few tests were ignored in the NLL compare-mode for reasons that obviously also apply to Polonius
- some diagnostics were unified so that older expectations no longer made sense: the NLL and Polonius outputs were identical.
- in a few cases Polonius gets a chance to emit more errors than NLLs
A few tests in the compare-mode still are super slow and trigger the 60s warning, or OOM rustc during fact generation, and I've detailed these [on Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/186049-t-compiler.2Fwg-polonius/topic/Challenges.20for.20move.2Finit.2C.20liveness.2C.20and.20.60Location.3A.3AAll.60):

- `src/test/ui/issues/issue-74564-if-expr-stack-overflow.rs`
- `src/test/ui/repr/repr-no-niche.rs`
In addition, 2 tests don't currently pass and I didn't want to bless them now: they deal with HRTBs and miss errors that NLLs emit. We're currently trying to see if we need chalk to deal with HRTB errors (as we thought we would have to) but during the recent sprint, we discovered that we may be able to detect some of these errors in a way that resembles subset errors:
- `ui/hrtb/hrtb-just-for-static.rs` -> 3 errors in NLL, 2 in polonius: a missing error about HRTB + needing to outlive 'static
- `ui/issues/issue-26217.rs` -> missing HRTB that makes the test compile instead of emitting an error
We'll keep talking about this at the next sprint as well.

Uplift the invalid_atomic_ordering lint from clippy to rustc
This is mostly just a rebase of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79654; I've copy/pasted the text from that PR below.
r? `@lcnr` since you reviewed the last one, but feel free to reassign.
---
This is an implementation of https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/390.
As mentioned, in general this turns an unconditional runtime panic into a (compile time) lint failure. It has no false positives, and the only false negatives I'm aware of are if `Ordering` isn't specified directly and is comes from an argument/constant/whatever.
As a result of it having no false positives, and the alternative always being strictly wrong, it's on as deny by default. This seems right.
In the [zulip stream](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/233931-t-compiler.2Fmajor-changes/topic/Uplift.20the.20.60invalid_atomic_ordering.60.20lint.20from.20clippy/near/218483957) `@joshtriplett` suggested that lang team should FCP this before landing it. Perhaps libs team cares too?
---
Some notes on the code for reviewers / others below
## Changes from clippy
The code is changed from [the implementation in clippy](68cf94f6a6/clippy_lints/src/atomic_ordering.rs) in the following ways:
1. Uses `Symbols` and `rustc_diagnostic_item`s instead of string literals.
- It's possible I should have just invoked Symbol::intern for some of these instead? Seems better to use symbol, but it did require adding several.
2. The functions are moved to static methods inside the lint struct, as a way to namespace them.
- There's a lot of other code in that file — which I picked as the location for this lint because `@jyn514` told me that seemed reasonable.
3. Supports unstable AtomicU128/AtomicI128.
- I did this because it was almost easier to support them than not — not supporting them would have (ideally) required finding a way not to give them a `rustc_diagnostic_item`, which would have complicated an already big macro.
- These don't have tests since I wasn't sure if/how I should make tests conditional on whether or not the target has the atomic... This is to a certain extent an issue of 64bit atomics too, but 128-bit atomics are much less common. Regardless, the existing tests should be *more* than thorough enough here.
4. Minor changes like:
- grammar tweaks ("loads cannot have `Release` **and** `AcqRel` ordering" => "loads cannot have `Release` **or** `AcqRel` ordering")
- function renames (`match_ordering_def_path` => `matches_ordering_def_path`),
- avoiding clippy-specific helper methods that don't exist in rustc_lint and didn't seem worth adding for this case (for example `cx.struct_span_lint` vs clippy's `span_lint_and_help` helper).
## Potential issues
(This is just about the code in this PR, not conceptual issues with the lint or anything)
1. I'm not sure if I should have used a diagnostic item for `Ordering` and its variants (I couldn't figure out how really, so if I should do this some pointers would be appreciated).
- It seems possible that failing to do this might possibly mean there are more cases this lint would miss, but I don't really know how `match_def_path` works and if it has any pitfalls like that, so maybe not.
2. I *think* I deprecated the lint in clippy (CC `@flip1995` who asked to be notified about clippy changes in the future in [this comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/75671#issuecomment-718731659)) but I'm not sure if I need to do anything else there.
- I'm kind of hoping CI will catch if I missed anything, since `x.py test src/tools/clippy` fails with a lot of errors with and without my changes (and is probably a nonsense command regardless). Running `cargo test` from src/tools/clippy also fails with unrelated errors that seem like refactorings that didnt update clippy? So, honestly no clue.
3. I wasn't sure if the description/example I gave good. Hopefully it is. The example is less thorough than the one from clippy here: https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#invalid_atomic_ordering. Let me know if/how I should change it if it needs changing.
4. It pulls in the `if_chain` crate. This crate was already used in clippy, and seems like it's used elsewhere in rustc, but I'm willing to rewrite it to not use this if needed (I'd prefer not to, all things being equal).
- Deprecate clippy::invalid_atomic_ordering
- Use rustc_diagnostic_item for the orderings in the invalid_atomic_ordering lint
- Reduce code duplication
- Give up on making enum variants diagnostic items and just look for
`Ordering` instead
I ran into tons of trouble with this because apparently the change to
store HIR attrs in a side table also gave the DefIds of the
constructor instead of the variant itself. So I had to change
`matches_ordering` to also check the grandparent of the defid as well.
- Rename `atomic_ordering_x` symbols to just the name of the variant
- Fix typos in checks - there were a few places that said "may not be
Release" in the diagnostic but actually checked for SeqCst in the lint.
- Make constant items const
- Use fewer diagnostic items
- Only look at arguments after making sure the method matches
This prevents an ICE when there aren't enough arguments.
- Ignore trait methods
- Only check Ctors instead of going through `qpath_res`
The functions take values, so this couldn't ever be anything else.
- Add if_chain to allowed dependencies
- Fix grammar
- Remove unnecessary allow
STD support for the ESP-IDF framework
Dear all,
This PR is implementing libStd support for the [ESP-IDF](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf) newlib-based framework, which is the open source SDK provided by Espressif for their MCU family (esp32, esp32s2, esp32c3 and all other forthcoming ones).
Note that this PR has a [sibling PR](https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/pull/2310) against the libc crate, which implements proper declarations for all ESP-IDF APIs which are necessary for libStd support.
# Implementation approach
The ESP-IDF framework - despite being bare metal - offers a relatively complete POSIX API based on newlib. `pthread`, BSD sockets, file descriptors, and even a small file-system VFS layer. Perhaps the only significant exception is the lack of support for processes, which is to be expected of course on bare metal.
Therefore, the libStd support is implemented as a set of (hopefully small) changes to the `sys/unix` family of modules, in the form of conditional-compilation branches based either on `target_os = "espidf"` or in a couple of cases - based on `target_env = "newlib"` (the latter was already there actually and is not part of this patch).
The PR also contains two new targets:
- `riscv32imc-esp-espidf`
- `riscv32imac-esp-espidf`
... which are essentially copies of `riscv32imc-unknown-none-elf` and `riscv32imac-unknown-none-elf`, but enriched with proper `linker`, `linker_flavor`, `families`, `os`, `env` etc. specifications so that (a) the proper conditional compilation branches in libStd are selected when compiling with these targets and (b) the correct linker is used.
Since support for atomics is a precondition for libStd, the `riscv32imc-esp-espidf` target additionally is configured in such a way, so as to emit libcalls to the `__sync*` & `__atomic*` GCC functions, which are already implemented in the ESP-IDF framework. If this modification is not acceptable, we can also live with only the `riscv32imac-esp-espidf` target as well. While the RiscV chips of Espressif lack native atomics support, the relevant instructions are transparently emulated in the ESP-IDF framework using invalid instruction trap. This modification was implemented specifically with Rust support in mind.
# Target maintainers
In case this PR eventually gets merged, you can list myself as a Target Maintainer.
More importantly, Espressif (the chip vendor) is now actively involved and [embracing](https://github.com/espressif/rust-esp32-example/blob/main/docs/rust-on-xtensa.md) all [Rust-related efforts](https://github.com/esp-rs) which were originally a community effort. In light of that, I suppose `@MabezDev` - who initiated the Rust-on-Espressif efforts back in time and who now works for Espressif won't object to being listed as a maintainer as well.
**EDIT:** I was hinted (thanks, `@Urgau)` that answering the Tier 3 policy explicitly might be helpful. Answers below.
# Tier 3 Target Policy - answers
> A proposed target or target-specific patch that substantially changes code shared with other targets (not just target-specific code) must be reviewed and approved by the appropriate team for that shared code before acceptance.
Hopefully, the changes introduced by the ESP-IDF libStd support are rather on the small side. They are completely contained within the `sys/unix` set of modules (that is, aside from the obviously necessary one-liners in the `unwind` crate and in `build.rs`).
> A tier 3 target must have a designated developer or developers (the "target maintainers") on record to be CCed when issues arise regarding the target. (The mechanism to track and CC such developers may evolve over time.)
`@ivmarkov`
`@MabezDev`
> Targets must use naming consistent with any existing targets; for instance, a target for the same CPU or OS as an existing Rust target should use the same name for that CPU or OS. Targets should normally use the same names and naming conventions as used elsewhere in the broader ecosystem beyond Rust (such as in other toolchains), unless they have a very good reason to diverge. Changing the name of a target can be highly disruptive, especially once the target reaches a higher tier, so getting the name right is important even for a tier 3 target.
The two introduced targets follow as much as possible the naming conventions of the other targets. I.e. taking the bare-metal `riscv32imac_unknown_none_elf` as a base:
* The name of the new target was derived by replacing `none` with `espidf` to designate the `target_os`.
* `_elf` was removed, as the non-bare metal targets seem not to have it
* `-newlib` was deliberately NOT added at the end, as I believe the chance of having two simultaneously active separate targets for the ESP-IDF framework with different C libraries (say, newlib vs musl) is way too small
* Finally, we replaced the middle `unknown` with `esp` which is kind of the name of the whole chipset MCU family (and abbreviation from Espressif which is too long). It will stay `esp` for all RiscV32-based MCUs of the company, as they all use the riscv32imc instruction set. By necessity however (disambiguation), it will be `esp32` or `esp32s2` or `esp32s3` for the Xtensa-based MCUs as all of these have their own variation of the Xtensa architecture. (The Xtensa targets are not part of this PR, even though they would use 1:1 the same LibStd implementation provided here, as they depend on the upstreaming of the Xtensa architecture support in LLVM; this upstreaming this is currently in progress.)
There was also a preceding discussion on the topic [here](https://github.com/espressif/rust-esp32-example/issues/14).
> Target names should not introduce undue confusion or ambiguity unless absolutely necessary to maintain ecosystem compatibility. For example, if the name of the target makes people extremely likely to form incorrect beliefs about what it targets, the name should be changed or augmented to disambiguate it.
We are explicitly putting an `-espidf` suffix to designate that the target is *specifically* for Rust + ESP-IDF
> Tier 3 targets may have unusual requirements to build or use, but must not create legal issues or impose onerous legal terms for the Rust project or for Rust developers or users.
Agreed.
> The target must not introduce license incompatibilities.
To the best of our knowledge, it doesn't.
> Anything added to the Rust repository must be under the standard Rust license (MIT OR Apache-2.0).
MIT + Apache 2.0
> The target must not cause the Rust tools or libraries built for any other host (even when supporting cross-compilation to the target) to depend on any new dependency less permissive than the Rust licensing policy. This applies whether the dependency is a Rust crate that would require adding new license exceptions (as specified by the tidy tool in the rust-lang/rust repository), or whether the dependency is a native library or binary. In other words, the introduction of the target must not cause a user installing or running a version of Rust or the Rust tools to be subject to any new license requirements.
Requirements are not changed for any other target.
> If the target supports building host tools (such as rustc or cargo), those host tools must not depend on proprietary (non-FOSS) libraries, other than ordinary runtime libraries supplied by the platform and commonly used by other binaries built for the target. For instance, rustc built for the target may depend on a common proprietary C runtime library or console output library, but must not depend on a proprietary code generation library or code optimization library. Rust's license permits such combinations, but the Rust project has no interest in maintaining such combinations within the scope of Rust itself, even at tier 3.
The targets are for bare-metal environment which is not hosting build tools or a compiler.
> Targets should not require proprietary (non-FOSS) components to link a functional binary or library.
The linker used by the targets is the GCC linker from the GCC toolchain cross-compiled for riscv. GNU GPL.
> "onerous" here is an intentionally subjective term. At a minimum, "onerous" legal/licensing terms include but are not limited to: non-disclosure requirements, non-compete requirements, contributor license agreements (CLAs) or equivalent, "non-commercial"/"research-only"/etc terms, requirements conditional on the employer or employment of any particular Rust developers, revocable terms, any requirements that create liability for the Rust project or its developers or users, or any requirements that adversely affect the livelihood or prospects of the Rust project or its developers or users.
> Neither this policy nor any decisions made regarding targets shall create any binding agreement or estoppel by any party. If any member of an approving Rust team serves as one of the maintainers of a target, or has any legal or employment requirement (explicit or implicit) that might affect their decisions regarding a target, they must recuse themselves from any approval decisions regarding the target's tier status, though they may otherwise participate in discussions.
> This requirement does not prevent part or all of this policy from being cited in an explicit contract or work agreement (e.g. to implement or maintain support for a target). This requirement exists to ensure that a developer or team responsible for reviewing and approving a target does not face any legal threats or obligations that would prevent them from freely exercising their judgment in such approval, even if such judgment involves subjective matters or goes beyond the letter of these requirements.
Agreed.
> Tier 3 targets should attempt to implement as much of the standard libraries as possible and appropriate (core for most targets, alloc for targets that can support dynamic memory allocation, std for targets with an operating system or equivalent layer of system-provided functionality), but may leave some code unimplemented (either unavailable or stubbed out as appropriate), whether because the target makes it impossible to implement or challenging to implement. The authors of pull requests are not obligated to avoid calling any portions of the standard library on the basis of a tier 3 target not implementing those portions.
The targets implement libStd almost in its entirety, except for the missing support for process, as this is a bare metal platform. The process `sys\unix` module is currently stubbed to return "not implemented" errors.
> The target must provide documentation for the Rust community explaining how to build for the target, using cross-compilation if possible. If the target supports running tests (even if they do not pass), the documentation must explain how to run tests for the target, using emulation if possible or dedicated hardware if necessary.
Target does not (yet) support running tests. We would gladly provide all documentation how to build for the target (where?). It is currently hosted in this [README.md](https://github.com/ivmarkov/rust-esp32-std-hello) file, but will likely be moved to the [esp-rs](https://github.com/esp-rs) organization. Since the build for the target is driven by cargo and [all other tooling is downloaded automatically during the build](https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-idf-sys/blob/master/build.rs), there is no need for extensive documentation.
> Tier 3 targets must not impose burden on the authors of pull requests, or other developers in the community, to maintain the target. In particular, do not post comments (automated or manual) on a PR that derail or suggest a block on the PR based on a tier 3 target. Do not send automated messages or notifications (via any medium, including via `@)` to a PR author or others involved with a PR regarding a tier 3 target, unless they have opted into such messages.
Agreed.
> Backlinks such as those generated by the issue/PR tracker when linking to an issue or PR are not considered a violation of this policy, within reason. However, such messages (even on a separate repository) must not generate notifications to anyone involved with a PR who has not requested such notifications.
Agreed.
> Patches adding or updating tier 3 targets must not break any existing tier 2 or tier 1 target, and must not knowingly break another tier 3 target without approval of either the compiler team or the maintainers of the other tier 3 target.
To the best of our knowledge, we believe we are not breaking any other target (be it tier 1, 2 or 3).
> In particular, this may come up when working on closely related targets, such as variations of the same architecture with different features. Avoid introducing unconditional uses of features that another variation of the target may not have; use conditional compilation or runtime detection, as appropriate, to let each target run code supported by that target.
To the best of our knowledge, we have not introduced any unconditional use of a feature that affects any other target.
> If a tier 3 target stops meeting these requirements, or the target maintainers no longer have interest or time, or the target shows no signs of activity and has not built for some time, or removing the target would improve the quality of the Rust codebase, we may post a PR to remove it; any such PR will be CCed to the target maintainers (and potentially other people who have previously worked on the target), to check potential interest in improving the situation.
Agreed.
Allow more "unknown argument" strings from linker
Some toolchains emit slightly different errors, e.g.
