Follow-up to #130642 (comment) to make sure that when

$ COMPILETEST_FORCE_STAGE0=1 ./x test run-make --stage 0

is used, bootstrap cargo is used in order to avoid building stage 1 rustc. Note that run-make tests are usually not written with --stage 0 in mind and some tests may rely on stage1 rustc (nightly) behavior, and it is expected that some tests will fail under this invocation.

This PR also fixes tool::Cargo staging in compiletest when preparing for run-make test mode, by chopping off a stage from the compiler passed to tool::Cargo such that when the user invokes with stage N

./x test run-make --stage N

the run-make test suite will be tested against the cargo built by stage N compiler. Let's take N=1, i.e. --stage 1, without chopping off a stage, previously ./x test run-make --stage 1 will cause stage 1 rustc + std to be built, then stage 2 rustc, and cargo will be produced by the stage 2 rustc, which is clearly not what we want. By chopping off a stage, it means that cargo will be produced by the stage 1 rustc.

I tried this locally and it didn't need to build stage1 rustc, but wanted @bjorn3 to double-check in their setup.

Oh, there is another thumb run-make test..

And stop passing `BOOTSTRAP_CARGO` as an env var, instead the provided
cargo should go through `--cargo-path.`

Wait a minute, does stage 1 cargo rely on stage 2 rustc...? It ends up saying it tests stage1 compiletest but for some reason it needs to build stage2 rustc

I'm getting

Building compiler artifacts (stage1 -> stage2, x86_64-pc-windows-msvc)

but I used ./x test run-make --stage 1. There's something strange happening here with cargo staging?

EDIT: opened https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/326414-t-infra.2Fbootstrap/topic/stage1.20run-make.20tests.20now.20need.20stage2.20rustc.20built.20for.20cargo.3F, the staging seems all over the place and I have no clue what is happening

jieyouxu and others added 3 commits September 24, 2024 19:04
Previously if you pass compiler stage 1 to `tool::Cargo`, it will build
stage2 rustc and give you back a cargo built with stage2 rustc, which is
not what we want.

This commit adds a hack that chops off a stage from the compiler passed
to `tool::Cargo`, meaning that we will get a cargo built with stage 1
compiler, avoiding unnecessary and incorrect build of stage2 rustc and
the cargo built by that.

Changes since last review:

  • Fixed tool::Cargo staging being off-by-one (see updated PR description for more details).
  • Removed PATH and RUSTC since those env-vars from cargo commands invoked within rmake.rs should inherit the env vars.
  • Reverted changes to LIB env var in compiler-builtins.

Revert rust-lang#131060 "Drop conditionally applied cargo `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` flags"

In [rust-lang#131059] we found out that `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` is actually **load-bearing**[^1] for
(at least) `rustc` and `rustdoc` to have the kill-process-on-broken-pipe behavior, e.g. `rustc
--print=sysroot | false` will ICE and `rustdoc --print=sysroot | false` will panic on a broken pipe.

This PR reverts 5a7058c (reverts PR rust-lang#131060) in favor of a future
fix to *unconditionally* apply `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` to tool builds and also not drop the
`-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` flag for rustc binary builds.

I could not figure out how to write a regression test for the `rustc --print=sysroot | false`
behavior on Unix, so this is a plain revert for now.

This revert will unfortunately reintroduce rust-lang#130980 until we fix it again with the different approach.

See more details at <rust-lang#131059 (comment)> and in the timeline below.

### Timeline of kill-process-on-broken-pipe behavior changes

See [`unix_sigpipe` tracking issue rust-lang#97889][rust-lang#97889] for more context around unix sigpipe handling.

- From the very beginning since 2014, Rust binaries by default use `sig_ign`. This meant that if
  output pipe is broken yet the program tries to use `println!` and such, there will be a broken
  pipe panic from std. This lead to ICEs from e.g. `rustc --help | false` [rust-lang#34376].
- [rust-lang#49606] mitigated [rust-lang#34376] by adding an explicit signal handler to `rustc_driver` register a
  sigpipe handler with `SIG_DFL` which will cause the binary using `rustc_driver` to terminate if
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler()` is called. `rustc`'s main binary wrapper uses
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler()`, and so does `rustdoc`.
- A more universal way to set sigpipe behavior for Unix was introduced as part of [rust-lang#97889], i.e. `#
  [unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` attribute.
- [rust-lang#102587] migrated `rustc` to use `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` instead of
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler`.
- [rust-lang#103495] migrated `rustdoc` to use `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` instead of
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler`. `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler` was removed.
- Following concerns about sigpipe setting UI in [rust-lang#97889], the UI for specifying sigpipe behavior
  was changed in [rust-lang#124480] from `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` attribute to the commmand line flag
  `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill`.
    - In the same PR, `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` were removed from `rustc` and `rustdoc` main
      binary crate entry points in favor of the command line flag. Kill-process-on-broken-pipe
      behavior was preserved by adding `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` for `rustdoc` tool build step and
      `rustc` during compile steps.
- [rust-lang#126934] added `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` for tool builds *except* for cargo to help with some miri
  tests because at the time the PR was written, this would lead to a couple of cargo test failures.
  Conditionally setting `RUSTFLAGS` can lead to tool build invalidation, e.g. building `cargo`
  without `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` but `clippy` with the flag can lead to invalidation of the tool
  build cache. This is not a problem at the time, because nothing (not even miri) tests built stage
  1 cargo (all used initial cargo).
- In [rust-lang#130634] we found out that `run-make` tests like `compiler-builtins` needed stage 1 cargo, not
  just beta bootstrap cargo, because there can be changes that are present in stage 1 cargo but
  absent in beta cargo, which was blocking a beta backport.
- [rust-lang#130642] and later [rust-lang#130739] now build stage 1 cargo. And as previously mentioned, since
  `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` was specifically *not* set for cargo, this caused tool build cache
  invalidation meaning rebuilds of stage 1 even if nothing in source was changed due to differing
  `RUSTFLAGS` since `run-make` also builds `rustdoc` and such [rust-lang#130980].

(at least) `rustc` and `rustdoc` to have the kill-process-on-broken-pipe behavior, e.g. `rustc
--print=sysroot | false` will ICE and `rustdoc --print=sysroot | false` will panic on a broken pipe.

This PR reverts 5a7058c5a542ec42d1fa9b524f7b4f7d6845d1e9 (reverts PR #131060) in favor of a future
fix to *unconditionally* apply `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` to tool builds and also not drop the
`-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` flag for rustc binary builds.

I could not figure out how to write a regression test for the `rustc --print=sysroot | false`
behavior on Unix, so this is a plain revert for now.

This revert will unfortunately reintroduce #130980 until we fix it again with the different approach.

See more details at <rust-lang/rust#131059 (comment)> and in the timeline below.

### Timeline of kill-process-on-broken-pipe behavior changes

See [`unix_sigpipe` tracking issue #97889][#97889] for more context around unix sigpipe handling.

- From the very beginning since 2014, Rust binaries by default use `sig_ign`. This meant that if
  output pipe is broken yet the program tries to use `println!` and such, there will be a broken
  pipe panic from std. This lead to ICEs from e.g. `rustc --help | false` [#34376].
- [#49606] mitigated [#34376] by adding an explicit signal handler to `rustc_driver` register a
  sigpipe handler with `SIG_DFL` which will cause the binary using `rustc_driver` to terminate if
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler()` is called. `rustc`'s main binary wrapper uses
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler()`, and so does `rustdoc`.
- A more universal way to set sigpipe behavior for Unix was introduced as part of [#97889], i.e. `#
  [unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` attribute.
- [#102587] migrated `rustc` to use `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` instead of
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler`.
- [#103495] migrated `rustdoc` to use `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` instead of
  `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler`. `rustc_driver::set_sigpipe_handler` was removed.
- Following concerns about sigpipe setting UI in [#97889], the UI for specifying sigpipe behavior
  was changed in [#124480] from `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` attribute to the commmand line flag
  `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill`.
    - In the same PR, `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` were removed from `rustc` and `rustdoc` main
      binary crate entry points in favor of the command line flag. Kill-process-on-broken-pipe
      behavior was preserved by adding `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` for `rustdoc` tool build step and
      `rustc` during compile steps.
- [#126934] added `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` for tool builds *except* for cargo to help with some miri
  tests because at the time the PR was written, this would lead to a couple of cargo test failures.
  Conditionally setting `RUSTFLAGS` can lead to tool build invalidation, e.g. building `cargo`
  without `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` but `clippy` with the flag can lead to invalidation of the tool
  build cache. This is not a problem at the time, because nothing (not even miri) tests built stage
  1 cargo (all used initial cargo).
- In [#130634] we found out that `run-make` tests like `compiler-builtins` needed stage 1 cargo, not
  just beta bootstrap cargo, because there can be changes that are present in stage 1 cargo but
  absent in beta cargo, which was blocking a beta backport.
- [#130642] and later [#130739] now build stage 1 cargo. And as previously mentioned, since
  `-Zon-broken-pipe=kill` was specifically *not* set for cargo, this caused tool build cache
  invalidation meaning rebuilds of stage 1 even if nothing in source was changed due to differing
  `RUSTFLAGS` since `run-make` also builds `rustdoc` and such [#130980].
