ident is always a single token and can be treated in the same way as tt.

This seems analogous to automatically performing cfg-expansion before invoking attribute macros. It's "usually" the right thing to do, but it hides information (#[cfg] attributes, the Span of the group) that some macros might want to use.

@Aaron1011
See #91166 for some background for this PR.

I think groups is a way to preserve parsing priorities first of all, not to maintain the macro_rules matcher substitution stacks.
(From that point of view ident doesn't need to be grouped, it's not affected by parsing priorities as a single token.)
Otherwise we would wrap tokens substituted with tt too.
Moreover, even ident doesn't preserve the whole substitution stack, only the last substitution.

I think it would be useful to maintain these stacks in the compiler somehow, including for tts, for which they are currently not tracked at all.
That would be useful for spans, because the interpolated token spans are too damn useful for joining them with neighboring spans, like getting a reasonable span for the $a b expression, which currently happens if $a is an ident, but not if $a is a tt.
I just don't think groups is the right tool for that.

The main source of regressions here is rhai which generates a definition and use of a variable with different contexts (one is plain Span::call_site() and another is inherited from a part of input), but those two contexts happen to coincide if ident matchers are wrapped (the group is used as that "part of input").
So, it's not about group parsing, just an accidental hygiene issue.
(I'll look at other regressions later.)

@petrochenkov
Copy link
Contributor Author

Besides rhai there are only 3 non-spurious root regressions:

  • ruly-4.1.0 and displaydoc-lite-0.1.3 - the proc macros are internal, do manual parsing, and expect a fixed input, which is generated by macro_rules and happened to include groups at the time of writing. The macros panic if the input differ from the expected.
  • MNTRA.compiler_project.6bd7adf91e1532d3ebac49efef132b4d456cc757 - some kind of a hygiene context mismatch similar to rhai, I didn't figure out the precise details.

So, I think the conclusion is that we should be able make this change, if we want it.

@petrochenkov

FWIW, among those "16 fixed" there are some legitimate fixes for regressions caused by (not so) recent proc macro bugfixes that resulted in new groups being produced :)

This is an observable language and library change that needs to go through some team.
I'm not sure which exactly, so I'll nominate it for both, please remove the nomination if you think it's not yours responsibility.

Code matched by macro_rules matchers like ty or expr (and using TokenKind::Interpolated internally in rustc) is converted to token streams when passed to proc macros.
For majority of matchers, with exception of tt, such token streams are wrapped into a TokenTree::Group with Delimiter::None to preserve parsing priorities (the typical example being $expr * 3 where $expr is 1 2, which is tokenized as ⟪ 1 2 ⟫ * 3 instead of 1 2 * 3).

This PR removes this wrapping from the ident matcher which is always a single token, so it's not affected by any parsing priorities and is very similar to tt.

  • Before: $ident 1 => ⟪ i ⟫ 1.
  • After: $ident 1 => i 1.

Upstream changes:

Version 1.61.0 (2022-05-19)
==========================

Language
--------

- [`const fn` signatures can now include generic trait bounds][93827]
- [`const fn` signatures can now use `impl Trait` in argument and return
  position][93827]
- [Function pointers can now be created, cast, and passed around in a
  `const fn`][93827]
- [Recursive calls can now set the value of a function's opaque
  `impl Trait` return type][94081]

Compiler
--------

- [Linking modifier syntax in `#[link]` attributes and on the command
  line, as well as the `whole-archive` modifier specifically, are now
  supported][93901]
- [The `char` type is now described as UTF-32 in debuginfo][89887]
- The [`#[target_feature]`][target_feature] attribute
  [can now be used with aarch64 features][90621]
- X86 [`#[target_feature = "adx"]` is now stable][93745]

Libraries
---------

- [`ManuallyDrop<T>` is now documented to have the same layout as `T`][88375]
- [`#[ignore = "#"]` messages are printed when running tests][92714]
- [Consistently show absent stdio handles on Windows as NULL handles][93263]
- [Make `std::io::stdio::lock()` return `'static` handles.][93965]
  Previously, the creation of locked handles to stdin/stdout/stderr would
  borrow the handles being locked, which prevented writing
  `let out = std::io::stdout().lock();` because `out` would outlive
  the return value of `stdout()`.
  Such code now works, eliminating a common pitfall that affected many
  Rust users.
- [`Vec::from_raw_parts` is now less restrictive about its inputs][95016]
- [`std::thread::available_parallelism` now takes cgroup quotas into
  account.][92697] Since `available_parallelism` is often used to create a
  thread pool for parallel computation, which may be CPU-bound for
  performance, `available_parallelism` will return a value consistent with
  the ability to use that many threads continuously, if possible.
  For instance, in a container with 8 virtual CPUs but quotas only allowing
  for 50% usage, `available_parallelism` will return 4.

Stabilized APIs
---------------

- [`Pin::static_mut`]
- [`Pin::static_ref`]
- [`Vec::retain_mut`]
- [`VecDeque::retain_mut`]
- [`Write` for `Cursor<[u8; N]>`][cursor-write-array]
- [`std::os::unix::net::SocketAddr::from_pathname`]
- [`std::process::ExitCode`] and [`std::process::Termination`].
  The stabilization of these two API s now makes it possible for
  programs to return errors from `main` with custom exit codes.
- [`std::thread::JoinHandle::is_finished`]

These APIs are now usable in const contexts:

- [`<*const T>::offset` and `<*mut T>::offset`][ptr-offset]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_offset` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_offset`]
  [ptr-wrapping_offset]
- [`<*const T>::add` and `<*mut T>::add`][ptr-add]
- [`<*const T>::sub` and `<*mut T>::sub`][ptr-sub]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_add` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_add`][ptr-wrapping_add]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_sub` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_sub`][ptr-wrapping_sub]
- [`<[T]>::as_mut_ptr`][slice-as_mut_ptr]
- [`<[T]>::as_ptr_range`][slice-as_ptr_range]
- [`<[T]>::as_mut_ptr_range`][slice-as_mut_ptr_range]

Cargo
-----

No feature changes, but see compatibility notes.

Compatibility Notes
-------------------

- Previously native static libraries were linked as `whole-archive` in
  some cases, but now rustc tries not to use `whole-archive` unless
  explicitly requested. This [change][93901] may result in linking errors
  in some cases. To fix such errors, native libraries linked from the
  command line, build scripts, or [`#[link]` attributes][link-attr] need to
  - (more common) either be reordered to respect dependencies between them
    (if `a` depends on `b` then `a` should go first and `b` second)
  - (less common) or be updated to use the [` whole-archive`] modifier.
- [Catching a second unwind from FFI code while cleaning up from a Rust
  panic now causes the process to abort][92911]
- [Proc macros no longer see `ident` matchers wrapped in groups][92472]
- [The number of `#` in `r#` raw string literals is now required to be
  less than 256][95251]
- [When checking that a dyn type satisfies a trait bound, supertrait
  bounds are now enforced][92285]
- [`cargo vendor` now only accepts one value for each `--sync` flag]
  [cargo/10448]
- [`cfg` predicates in `all()` and `any()` are always evaluated to detect
  errors, instead of short-circuiting.][94295] The compatibility
  considerations here arise in nightly-only code that used the
  short-circuiting behavior of `all` to write something like
  `cfg(all(feature = "nightly", syntax-requiring-nightly))`, which
  will now fail to compile. Instead, use either `cfg_attr(feature
  = "nightly", ...)` or nested uses of `cfg`.
- [bootstrap: static-libstdcpp is now enabled by default, and can
  now be disabled when llvm-tools is enabled][94832]

Internal Changes
----------------

These changes provide no direct user facing benefits, but represent
significant improvements to the internals and overall performance
of rustc and related tools.

- [debuginfo: Refactor debuginfo generation for types][94261]
- [Remove the everybody loops pass][93913]

Version 1.61.0 (2022-05-19)
==========================

Language
--------

- [`const fn` signatures can now include generic trait bounds][93827]
- [`const fn` signatures can now use `impl Trait` in argument and return
  position][93827]
- [Function pointers can now be created, cast, and passed around in a
  `const fn`][93827]
- [Recursive calls can now set the value of a function's opaque
  `impl Trait` return type][94081]

Compiler
--------

- [Linking modifier syntax in `#[link]` attributes and on the command
  line, as well as the `whole-archive` modifier specifically, are now
  supported][93901]
- [The `char` type is now described as UTF-32 in debuginfo][89887]
- The [`#[target_feature]`][target_feature] attribute
  [can now be used with aarch64 features][90621]
- X86 [`#[target_feature = "adx"]` is now stable][93745]

Libraries
---------

- [`ManuallyDrop<T>` is now documented to have the same layout as `T`][88375]
- [`#[ignore = "#"]` messages are printed when running tests][92714]
- [Consistently show absent stdio handles on Windows as NULL handles][93263]
- [Make `std::io::stdio::lock()` return `'static` handles.][93965]
  Previously, the creation of locked handles to stdin/stdout/stderr would
  borrow the handles being locked, which prevented writing
  `let out = std::io::stdout().lock();` because `out` would outlive
  the return value of `stdout()`.
  Such code now works, eliminating a common pitfall that affected many
  Rust users.
- [`Vec::from_raw_parts` is now less restrictive about its inputs][95016]
- [`std::thread::available_parallelism` now takes cgroup quotas into
  account.][92697] Since `available_parallelism` is often used to create a
  thread pool for parallel computation, which may be CPU-bound for
  performance, `available_parallelism` will return a value consistent with
  the ability to use that many threads continuously, if possible.
  For instance, in a container with 8 virtual CPUs but quotas only allowing
  for 50% usage, `available_parallelism` will return 4.

Stabilized APIs
---------------

- [`Pin::static_mut`]
- [`Pin::static_ref`]
- [`Vec::retain_mut`]
- [`VecDeque::retain_mut`]
- [`Write` for `Cursor<[u8; N]>`][cursor-write-array]
- [`std::os::unix::net::SocketAddr::from_pathname`]
- [`std::process::ExitCode`] and [`std::process::Termination`].
  The stabilization of these two API s now makes it possible for
  programs to return errors from `main` with custom exit codes.
- [`std::thread::JoinHandle::is_finished`]

These APIs are now usable in const contexts:

- [`<*const T>::offset` and `<*mut T>::offset`][ptr-offset]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_offset` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_offset`]
  [ptr-wrapping_offset]
- [`<*const T>::add` and `<*mut T>::add`][ptr-add]
- [`<*const T>::sub` and `<*mut T>::sub`][ptr-sub]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_add` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_add`][ptr-wrapping_add]
- [`<*const T>::wrapping_sub` and `<*mut T>::wrapping_sub`][ptr-wrapping_sub]
- [`<[T]>::as_mut_ptr`][slice-as_mut_ptr]
- [`<[T]>::as_ptr_range`][slice-as_ptr_range]
- [`<[T]>::as_mut_ptr_range`][slice-as_mut_ptr_range]

Cargo
-----

No feature changes, but see compatibility notes.

Compatibility Notes
-------------------

- Previously native static libraries were linked as `whole-archive` in
  some cases, but now rustc tries not to use `whole-archive` unless
  explicitly requested. This [change][93901] may result in linking errors
  in some cases. To fix such errors, native libraries linked from the
  command line, build scripts, or [`#[link]` attributes][link-attr] need to
  - (more common) either be reordered to respect dependencies between them
    (if `a` depends on `b` then `a` should go first and `b` second)
  - (less common) or be updated to use the [` whole-archive`] modifier.
- [Catching a second unwind from FFI code while cleaning up from a Rust
  panic now causes the process to abort][92911]
- [Proc macros no longer see `ident` matchers wrapped in groups][92472]
- [The number of `#` in `r#` raw string literals is now required to be
  less than 256][95251]
- [When checking that a dyn type satisfies a trait bound, supertrait
  bounds are now enforced][92285]
- [`cargo vendor` now only accepts one value for each `--sync` flag]
  [cargo/10448]
- [`cfg` predicates in `all()` and `any()` are always evaluated to detect
  errors, instead of short-circuiting.][94295] The compatibility
  considerations here arise in nightly-only code that used the
  short-circuiting behavior of `all` to write something like
  `cfg(all(feature = "nightly", syntax-requiring-nightly))`, which
  will now fail to compile. Instead, use either `cfg_attr(feature
  = "nightly", ...)` or nested uses of `cfg`.
- [bootstrap: static-libstdcpp is now enabled by default, and can
  now be disabled when llvm-tools is enabled][94832]

Internal Changes
----------------

These changes provide no direct user facing benefits, but represent
significant improvements to the internals and overall performance
of rustc and related tools.

- [debuginfo: Refactor debuginfo generation for types][94261]
- [Remove the everybody loops pass][93913]
