    rustc: Implement custom panic runtimes · 0ec321f7
    Alex Crichton 提交于
    This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1513] which allows applications to
    alter the behavior of panics at compile time. A new compiler flag, `-C panic`,
    is added and accepts the values `unwind` or `panic`, with the default being
    `unwind`. This model affects how code is generated for the local crate, skipping
    generation of landing pads with `-C panic=abort`.
    
    [RFC 1513]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1513-less-unwinding.md
    
    Panic implementations are then provided by crates tagged with
    `#![panic_runtime]` and lazily required by crates with
    `#![needs_panic_runtime]`. The panic strategy (`-C panic` value) of the panic
    runtime must match the final product, and if the panic strategy is not `abort`
    then the entire DAG must have the same panic strategy.
    
    With the `-C panic=abort` strategy, users can expect a stable method to disable
    generation of landing pads, improving optimization in niche scenarios,
    decreasing compile time, and decreasing output binary size. With the `-C
    panic=unwind` strategy users can expect the existing ability to isolate failure
    in Rust code from the outside world.
    
    Organizationally, this commit dismantles the `sys_common::unwind` module in
    favor of some bits moving part of it to `libpanic_unwind` and the rest into the
    `panicking` module in libstd. The custom panic runtime support is pretty similar
    to the custom allocator support with the only major difference being how the
    panic runtime is injected (takes the `-C panic` flag into account).
