sweet! thanks for bearing with me previously, it makes sense to me now (also resolved an error in my mental model for the language)

LGTM modulo comments, but as usual: do we want this?
Or rather, should we stabilize this at the same time as the rest of #[track_caller]
?
cc @rust-lang/lang @nagisa for awareness
I don't really see any reason we wouldn't want this, do you? Are there concerns about it? |

Stabilize `#[track_caller]`. # Stabilization Report RFC: [2091] Tracking issue: rust-lang#47809 ## Summary From the [rustc-dev-guide chapter][dev-guide]: > Take this example program: ```rust fn main() { let foo: Option<()> = None; foo.unwrap(); // this should produce a useful panic message! } ``` > Prior to Rust 1.42, panics like this `unwrap()` printed a location in libcore: ``` $ rustc +1.41.0 example.rs; example.exe thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Option::unwrap()` on a `None` value',...core\macros\mod.rs:15:40 note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace. ``` > As of 1.42, we get a much more helpful message: ``` $ rustc +1.42.0 example.rs; example.exe thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Option::unwrap()` on a `None` value', example.rs:3:5 note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace ``` > These error messages are achieved through a combination of changes to `panic!` internals to make use of `core::panic::Location::caller` and a number of `#[track_caller]` annotations in the standard library which propagate caller information. The attribute adds an implicit caller location argument to the ABI of annotated functions, but does not affect the type or MIR of the function. We implement the feature entirely in codegen and in the const evaluator. ## Bottom Line This PR stabilizes the use of `#[track_caller]` everywhere, including traits and extern blocks. It also stabilizes `core::panic::Location::caller`, although the use of that function in a const context remains gated by `#![feature(const_caller_location)]`. The implementation for the feature already changed the output of panic messages for a number of std functions, as described in the [1.42 release announcement]. The attribute's use in `Index` and `IndexMut` traits is visible to users since 1.44. ## Tests All of the tests for this feature live under [src/test/ui/rfc-2091-track-caller][tests] in the repo. Noteworthy cases: * [use of attr in std] * validates user-facing benefit of the feature * [trait attribute inheritance] * covers subtle behavior designed during implementation and not RFC'd * [const/codegen equivalence] * this was the result of a suspected edge case and investigation * [diverging function support] * covers an unresolved question from the RFC * [fn pointers and shims] * covers important potential sources of unsoundness ## Documentation The rustc-dev-guide now has a chapter on [Implicit Caller Location][dev-guide]. I have an [open PR to the reference][attr-reference-pr] documenting the attribute. The intrinsic's [wrapper] includes some examples as well. ## Implementation History * 2019-10-02: [`#[track_caller]` feature gate (RFC 2091 1/N) rust-lang#65037](rust-lang#65037) * Picked up the patch that @ayosec had started on the feature gate. * 2019-10-13: [Add `Instance::resolve_for_fn_ptr` (RFC 2091 rust-lang#2/N) rust-lang#65182](rust-lang#65182) * 2019-10-20: ~~[WIP Add MIR argument for #[track_caller] (RFC 2091 3/N) rust-lang#65258](rust-lang#65258 * Abandoned approach to send location as a MIR argument. * 2019-10-28: [`std::panic::Location` is a lang_item, add `core::intrinsics::caller_location` (RFC 2091 3/N) rust-lang#65664](rust-lang#65664) * 2019-12-07: [Implement #[track_caller] attribute.

I'm leaving the issue open to discuss whether we want to upstream custom section support. There's an [open issue to discuss mitigation strategies][mitigate-size]. Some decisions remain about the "right" strategies to reduce size without overly constraining the compiler implementation. I'd be excited to see someone carry that work forward but my opinion is that we shouldn't block stabilization on implementing compiler flags for redaction. ### Specialization There's an [open issue][specialization] on the semantics of the attribute in specialization chains. I'm inclined to move forward with stabilization without an exact resolution here given that specialization is itself unstable, but I also think it should be an easy question to resolve. ### Location only points to the start of a call span rust-lang#69977 was resolved by rust-lang#73182, and the next step should probably be to [extend `Location` with a notion of the end of a call](rust-lang#73554). ### Regression of std's panic messages rust-lang#70963 should be resolved by serializing span hygeine to crate metadata: rust-lang#68686.

Stabilize `#[track_caller]`. # Stabilization Report RFC: [2091] Tracking issue: rust-lang#47809 ## Summary From the [rustc-dev-guide chapter][dev-guide]: > Take this example program: ```rust fn main() { let foo: Option<()> = None; foo.unwrap(); // this should produce a useful panic message! } ``` > Prior to Rust 1.42, panics like this `unwrap()` printed a location in libcore: ``` $ rustc +1.41.0 example.rs; example.exe thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Option::unwrap()` on a `None` value',...core\macros\mod.rs:15:40 note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace. ``` > As of 1.42, we get a much more helpful message: ``` $ rustc +1.42.0 example.rs; example.exe thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Option::unwrap()` on a `None` value', example.rs:3:5 note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace ``` > These error messages are achieved through a combination of changes to `panic!` internals to make use of `core::panic::Location::caller` and a number of `#[track_caller]` annotations in the standard library which propagate caller information. The attribute adds an implicit caller location argument to the ABI of annotated functions, but does not affect the type or MIR of the function. We implement the feature entirely in codegen and in the const evaluator. ## Bottom Line This PR stabilizes the use of `#[track_caller]` everywhere, including traits and extern blocks. It also stabilizes `core::panic::Location::caller`, although the use of that function in a const context remains gated by `#![feature(const_caller_location)]`. The implementation for the feature already changed the output of panic messages for a number of std functions, as described in the [1.42 release announcement]. The attribute's use in `Index` and `IndexMut` traits is visible to users since 1.44. ## Tests All of the tests for this feature live under [src/test/ui/rfc-2091-track-caller][tests] in the repo.

Fixes #70830 which is the follow-up to @eddyb's suggestion in #69251 (comment) to allow
#[track_caller]
onfn
s in FFI imports, that is, on functions inextern "Rust" { ... }
blocks.This requires that the other side, the FFI export, also have the
#[track_caller]
attribute. Otherwise, undefined behavior is triggered and the blame lies, as usual, with theunsafe { ... }
block which called the FFI imported function.After this PR, all forms of
fn
items with the right ABI ("Rust"
) support#[track_caller]
.As a drive-by, the PR also hardens the check rejecting
#[naked] #[track_caller]
such that methods and other forms offn
items are also considered.r? @eddyb
