Summary:
This patch make G++03 explicitly unsupported with libc++, as discussed on the mailing lists.
Below is the rational for this decision.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
libc++ claims to support GCC with C++03 ("G++03"), and this is a problem for our users.
Our C++03 users are all using Clang. They must be. Less than 9% of the C++03 tests pass with GCC [1][2]. No non-trivial C++ program could work.
Attempting to support G++03 impacts our QoI considerably. Unlike Clang, G++03 offers almost no C++11 extensions. If we could remove all the fallbacks for G++03, it would mean libc++ could::
* Improve Correctness:
Every `#ifdef _LIBCPP_HAS_NO_<C++11-feature>` is a bug manifest. It exists to admit for deviant semantics.
* Achieve ABI stability between C++03 and C++11
Differences between our C++03 and C++Rest branches contain ABI bugs. For example `std::nullptr_t` and `std::function::operator()(...)` are currently incompatible between C++11 and C++03, but could be fixed.
* Decrease Compile Times and Memory Usage:
Writing efficient SFINAE requires C++11. Using alias templates, libc++ could reduce the number of instantiations it produces substantially.
* Decrease Binary Size
Similar to the last point, G++03 forces metaprogramming techniques that emit more debug information [3] [4]. Compared to libstdc++, debug information size increases of +10% are not uncommon.

As we gear up to drop support for GCC in C++03, we should make clear
what our C++03 mode is, the C++11 extensions it provides,
and the C++11 extensions it depends on.
The section of this document discussing user-facing extensions has
been left blank while the community discusses new directions. For now
it's just a warning to users.
Additionally, the document contains examples of how these extensions
should be used and why. For example, using alias templates over class
templates.

this implements the new policy for handling experimental features and
their deprecation. We basically add a deprecation warning for
std::experimental::filesystem, and we remove a bunch of <experimental/*>

merged type info names.
Previously std::type_info always expected type info string to be unique.
But this isn't always the case. Like when -Bsymbolic is passed to the
linker or due to llvm.org/PR37398.
This patch adds the LIBCXX_HAS_MERGED_TYPEINFO_NAMES_DEFAULT CMake
option which, when specified, overrides the default configuration for
the library.
The current defaults still assume unique names even though this isn't
strictly correct for ELF binaries. We should consider changing the

This builds on the work done in r342808 and adds _LIBCPP_NODISCARD_EXT
to 37 more functions, namely:
adjacent_find, all_of, any_of, binary_search, clamp, count_if, count,
equal_range, equal, find_end, find_first_not_of, find_first_of, find_if,
find, includes, is_heap_until, is_heap, is_partitioned, is_permutation,

max_element, max, min_element, min, minmax_element, minmax, mismatch,
none_of, remove_if, remove, search_n, search, unique, upper_bound
The motivation here is that we noticed that find_if is nodiscard with
Visual Studio's standard library, and we deemed that useful
(https://crbug.com/948122).
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/c17-progress-in-vs-2017-15-5-and-15-6/
says "Our criteria for emitting the warning are: discarding the return
value is a guaranteed leak [...], discarding the return value is
near-guaranteed to be incorrect (e.g. remove()/remove_if()/unique()), or
the function is essentially a pure observer (e.g. vector::empty() and
std::is_sorted())." so I went through algorithm and tried to apply these
criteria.
Some of these, like vector::empty() are already nodiscard per C++
standard and didn't need changing.
I didn't (yet?) go over std::string::find* methods which should probably
have _LIBCPP_NODISCARD_EXT too (but not as part of this change).

libc++abi each export file contains.
Finally, it removes hardcoded knowledge about the 10.9 SDK for MacOS,
since that knowledge is not relevant anymore. Indeed, libc++ can't be
built with the toolchain that came with the 10.9 SDK anyway because
the version of Clang it includes is too old (for example if you want
to build a working libc++.dylib, you need bugfixes to visibility
attributes that are only in recent Clangs).

We're building tests with -nostdlib which means that we need to
explicitly include the builtins library. When using libgcc (default)
we can simply include -lgcc_s on the link line, but when using
compiler-rt builtins we need a complete path to the builtins library.
This path is already available in CMake as <PROJECT>_BUILTINS_LIBRARY,
so we just need to pass that path to lit and if config.compiler_rt is
true, link it to the test.
Prior to this patch, running tests when compiler-rt is being used as
the builtins library was broken as all tests would fail to link, but
with this change running tests when compiler-rt bultins library is
being used should be supported.

This patch removes some vendor-specific availability XFAILs from the
test suite. In the future, when a new feature is introduced in the
dylib, an availability macro should be created and a matching lit
feature should be created. That way, the test suite can XFAIL whenever
the implementation lacks the necessary feature instead of being
cluttered by vendor-specific annotations.
Right now, those vendor-specific annotations are still somewhat cluttering
the test suite by being in `config.py`, but at least they are localized.
In the future, we could design a way to define those less intrusively or
even automatically based on the availability macros that already exist
in <__config>.

Summary:
Freestanding is *weird*. The standard allows it to differ in a bunch of odd
manners from regular C++, and the committee would like to improve that
situation. I'd like to make libc++ behave better with what freestanding should
be, so that it can be a tool we use in improving the standard. To do that we
need to try stuff out, both with "freestanding the language mode" and
"freestanding the library subset".
Let's start with the super basic: run the libc++ tests in freestanding, using
clang as the compiler, and see what works. The easiest hack to do this:
In utils/libcxx/test/config.py add:
self.cxx.compile_flags += ['-ffreestanding']
Run the tests and they all fail.
Why? Because in freestanding `main` isn't special. This "not special" property
has two effects: main doesn't get mangled, and main isn't allowed to omit its
`return` statement. The first means main gets mangled and the linker can't
create a valid executable for us to test. The second means we spew out warnings
(ew) and the compiler doesn't insert the `return` we omitted, and main just
falls of the end and does whatever undefined behavior (if you're luck, ud2
leading to non-zero return code).
Let's start my work with the basics. This patch changes all libc++ tests to
declare `main` as `int main(int, char**` so it mangles consistently (enabling us
to declare another `extern "C"` main for freestanding which calls the mangled
one), and adds `return 0;` to all places where it was missing. This touches 6124
files, and I apologize.
The former was done with The Magic Of Sed.
The later was done with a (not quite correct but decent) clang tool:
https://gist.github.com/jfbastien/793819ff360baa845483dde81170feed
This works for most tests, though I did have to adjust a few places when e.g.
the test runs with `-x c`, macros are used for main (such as for the filesystem
tests), etc.
Once this is in we can create a freestanding bot which will prevent further
regressions. After that, we can start the real work of supporting C++
freestanding fairly well in libc++.

Summary:
Running the tests without availability enabled doesn't really make sense:
availability annotations allow catching errors at compile-time instead
of link-time. Running the tests without availability enabled allows
confirming that a test breaks at link-time under some configuration,
but it is more useful to instead check that it should fail at compile-time.
Always enabling availability in the lit test suite will greatly simplify
XFAILs and troubleshooting of failing tests, which is currently a giant
pain because we have these two levels of possible failure: link-time and
compile-time.

We recently added libcxx-dev and libcxx-commits mailing lists.
This patch updates the libc++ documentation to correctly reference
the libc++ lists instead of the old Clang ones.
llvm-svn: 342816
Summary:
The `[[nodiscard]]` attribute is intended to help users find bugs where
function return values are ignored when they shouldn't be. After C++17 the
C++ standard has started to declared such library functions as `[[nodiscard]]`.
However, this application is limited and applies only to dialects after C++17.
Users who want help diagnosing misuses of STL functions may desire a more
liberal application of `[[nodiscard]]`.
For this reason libc++ provides an extension that does just that! The
extension must be enabled by defining `_LIBCPP_ENABLE_NODISCARD`. The extended
applications of `[[nodiscard]]` takes two forms:
1. Backporting `[[nodiscard]]` to entities declared as such by the
standard in newer dialects, but not in the present one.
2. Extended applications of `[[nodiscard]]`, at the libraries discretion,
applied to entities never declared as such by the standard.
Users may also opt-out of additional applications `[[nodiscard]]` using
additional macros.
Applications of the first form, which backport `[[nodiscard]]` from a newer
dialect may be disabled using macros specific to the dialect it was added. For
example `_LIBCPP_DISABLE_NODISCARD_AFTER_CXX17`.
Applications of the second form, which are pure extensions, may be disabled
by defining `_LIBCPP_DISABLE_NODISCARD_EXT`.
This patch was originally written by me (Roman Lebedev),
then but then reworked by Eric Fiselier.

Summary:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D49240 led to symbol size problems in Chromium, and
we expect this may be the case in other projects built in debug mode too.
Instead, unless users explicitly ask for internal_linkage, we use always_inline
like we used to.
In the future, when we have a solution that allows us to drop always_inline
without falling back on internal_linkage, we can replace always_inline by
that.
Note that this commit introduces a change in contract for existing libc++
users: by default, libc++ used to guarantee that TUs built with different
versions of libc++ could be linked together. With the introduction of the
_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI_PER_TU macro, the default behavior is that TUs built
with different libc++ versions are not guaranteed to link. This is a change
in contract but not a change in behavior, since the current implementation
still allows linking TUs built with different libc++ versions together.
