This PR introduces a subtree for a gcc-based codegen backend to the repository, per decision in rust-lang/compiler-team#442. We do not yet expect to ship this backend on nightly or run tests in CI, but we do verify that the backend checks (i.e., cargo check) successfully.

Work is expected to progress primarily in https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc_codegen_gcc, with semi-regular upstreaming, like with other subtrees.

The gcc-patches directory is removed in a pending PR so that the patches won't get into this repo.

Not a lawyer, but note that git works in a way that if you clone a given repository, you obtain the entire history. So from my understanding, the GPL patches are still there, and merging this PR might add GPL artifacts to each git clone of the rust repo.

If you really want to remove the directory from git, use git filter-branch or git filter-repo.

  • In src/bootstrap/check.rs and src/bootstrap/compile.rs there is a CodegenBackend struct. Currently it only compiles cg_clif, but it is designed to work with arbitrary codegen backends. The check one is probably the easiest to wire up. Just add compiler/rustc_codegen_gcc and rustc_codegen_gcc to the array in should_run and add "gcc" to the array in make_run. For compile you need something similar, but also wire up compilation of libgccjit somehow. Maybe that could be left for a future PR?
  • Next you need to explicitly add or exclude rustc_codegen_gcc from the root cargo workspace. I explicitly excluded rustc_codegen_cranelift to ensure that the Cargo.lock of cg_clif is used instead of the root Cargo.lock to determine the right rev of the cranelift git dependency. I think you will want to do the same thing because of the gccjit.rs git dependency.
  • Finally you will either need to run rustfmt on cg_gcc using rustc's rustfmt.toml and a nightly rustfmt or exclude it in rustfmt.toml.
  • Another thing, once this PR (or any other PR updating the cg_gcc version in this repo) is merged you will want to pull the git subtree to the cg_gcc repo to prevent merge conflicts the next time you pull changes from the rust repo. See my rustup script: https://github.com/bjorn3/rustc_codegen_cranelift/blob/bd2f72f398fa6b609a005cea8ebe16e093937936/scripts/rustup.sh#L29-L53

If you really want to remove the directory from git, use git filter-branch or git filter-repo.

Or, as another option, you could squash the current git history and just add rustc_codegen_gcc in one commit. (You don't have to do this, but it may be simpler, and I don't think it's critical to preserve the out-of-tree history. New commits could start from the merged version.)

So, the CI now pass.

I still need to fix the codegen as the latest changes in rustc made the libcore's test failing.

What else needs to be done for this first PR to land?

Should I run the libcore's test in the CI?
If so, how to a get a patched libgccjit (do I use the binary from the artifacts in my fork of gcc, do I build it in the CI — if so, from my fork or do I need to apply the paches?)?

Apart from that, from the comments above, I believe only the changes to src/bootstrap/compile.rs that @bjorn3 mentioned is missing (should that be included in this PR or a later one?).

Should I run the libcore's test in the CI?

Per the MCP:

This MCP also proposes gating CI on rustc_codegen_gcc building, but not on it passing any tests.

So, you shouldn't run the testsuite, but you should build the backend.

Long-term, I think we'll want to have a rust-lang/gcc repository that contains a branch with the necessary patches, just as we currently have an LLVM branch at https://github.com/rust-lang/llvm-project/ .

I'd suggest checking with @rust-lang/infra about the best way to handle this. I'll check on Zulip.

@joshtriplett : By that, do you mean that doing the check is enough, or should I attempt to build it and link to libgccjit?

Have you got any news from asking on Zulip?

Edit: libcore tests are now fixed.

Shouldn't the commits above be squashed into a single commit? Seems a bit unusual to keep the history of the development project.

I tried doing that, but it stopped being a git subtree. Do you know if there is a way to squash a git subtree without creating an unrelated git history?

@glaubitz same has been done for clippy, miri, rustfmt, rustc-codegen-cranelift, so it's not without precedent. And in the case of the other repos it was way more commits than just 90.

@Mark-Simulacrum

Thanks!

What is the process from now on?
Should I check now that the tests still pass to know if I need to update?

I think syncing on a roughly biweekly cadence in both directions is a good idea; the longer you wait the more chance there is for rebase errors to crop up. Of course, if tests are broken or there's some reason to sync more often, there's nothing inherently stopping you from doing so.

There are instructions for building a cross-compiling libgccjit in the readme.
Please note that there are some hacks needed to make this work currently.
But now that this PR has been merged, people can start adding new targets in rustc and the support in the different crates like libc and object.

@bjorn3 @antoyo Thanks a lot for all the hints. I will have a look and start working on adding the targets to libc. I already have a draft for m68k here: rust-lang/libc#2414

@glaubitz I misread what you wrote. If you try to build the rust compiler with this project, it's likely not going to work. It's still work in progress and not all the test suite pass, so it might either produce a non-working rustc or fail to compile it.
