Add tools to sysroot after build. #102010

As the title suggest, this makes bootstrap add tools to sysroot after building them. This allows the tools to be used with rustup, e.g.

; x b rustfmt
; rustfmt +stage1 ./t.rs

Resolves #97762
Resolves #81431


r? @jyn514

I copied the implementation from the same thing with rustdoc (link), however there are some questions/problems:

  1. Q: Do we need miri in the sysroot? It seems like the only way to run miri is throw cargo-miri...
  2. Q: Do we need both cargo-clippy and clippy-driver in the sysroot?
  3. P: when building any tool, all other tools are deleted for some reason that I can't seem to grasp
    ; x b cargo-miri
    ; ls build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1/bin
    cargo-miri  rustc
    ; x b rustfmt
    ; ls build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1/bin
    rustc  rustfmt
    ; x b clippy
    ; ls build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1/bin
    clippy-driver  rustc

With the power of friendship debug prints, I was able to find out that Sysroot step deletes tools from the bin:

rust/src/bootstrap/compile.rs

Lines 1107 to 1108 in 503e19d

let _ = fs::remove_dir_all(&sysroot);
t!(fs::create_dir_all(&sysroot));

Hmm, I don't recall why we delete the whole sysroot, but copying the whole stage-N-tools directly rather than just the newly built binary seems like a reasonable fix :)

✨ Try it and see ✨ :P can you run cargo +stage1 clippy and cargo +stage1 miri to see if they work?

I do think we should support miri, but it sounds like you're asking specifically about miri vs cargo-miri.

Hm, have you meant stageN-tools-bin or stageN-tools/TARGET/release? The former doesn't seem to contain everything (e.g. there is no cargo-clippy even though I'm sure I've built it...), while the latter seems to contain too much...

; ls build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1-tools-bin

I meant stageN-tools-bin, it's weird that it doesn't have cargo-clippy. Maybe dig into why that isn't there? The logic for copying it to stageN-tools-bin is going to be essentially the same as copying it to the sysroot, so I wouldn't spend too much time trying to filter down stuff from TARGET/release

I don't think we should copy everything - e.g., compiletest shouldn't get copied into the sysroot. In general, the reason we delete the directory is to make sure that we don't have cases where order of running x.py commands matters.

I would expect the deletion to happen before we copy into the directory though, because it should only happen once per run and we should invoke the relevant Step before copying things into it.

It does happen before the copy, but only the just-built thing and rustc are copied. Building cargo-miri adds it to the bin, building rustfmt after that removes cago-miri and adds rustfmt, etc.

How does this help? It seems like all files in stageN/bin are independent from each other, so even if we don't delete the directory, it'll be still fine

I don't think this is necessarily true (e.g., you might have one binary executing another), and it's much easier for something that is kept around persistently to e.g. have a stale binary that you don't realize should have been rebuilt and giving you very confusing results.

It does happen before the copy, but only the just-built thing and rustc are copied. Building cargo-miri adds it to the bin, building rustfmt after that removes cago-miri and adds rustfmt, etc.

Presumably this doesn't happen if you build both at once, e.g., x.py build src/tools/miri src/tools/rustfmt? It doesn't seem unreasonable to me to expect the user to do that, and not try to guess that you "still want" the old miri (particularly if that means e.g. that an edit to rustc either leaves a stale miri in place or magically detects it and starts building miri even though you've not asked for it).

./x.py build src/tools/miri src/tools/rustfmt does work, but I don't think it's reasonable to expect users to do that. I personally would build tools when I need them, and if I first need tool-A, then tool-B, then I would run x b a, then use tool-A, then x b b and then I would be confused why tool-A stopped working.

IMO it would make more sense if we would clear the directory only when rustc is rebuilt.

; x b compiler # clears the directory
; x b miri     # leaves the directory as-is
; x b rustfmt  # leaves the directory as-is

; nano compiler/... # change compiler
; x b miri          # compiler is rebuilt => clears the directory

I suppose that's possible, but I'm typically very wary of conditional clearing for that kind of directory. It's currently the case that all sysroots managed by rustbuild are always re-created on every build (AFAIK), which is a really convenient property for the implementation. In most cases if the goal is a "stable" sysroot, I sort of want to say "x.py install" or similar is the right way to get that, not trying to make the existing sysroots more durable.

Part of the reason I worry here is that "only when rustc is rebuilt" is a pretty annoying property to actually get; we don't directly know in rustbuild when something is rebuilt, cargo does caching for us. We do have some clear_if_dirty and such, with stamps, but that's really something that we're trying to move away from over time because getting them right is really tricky. (For an example: changing codegen can mean that you've not modified the rustc binary, so its timestamp hasn't changed, but the librustc_codegen_llvm.so has, and we're not tracking that, so you end up with an inconsistent state where newly built binaries (e.g., tools, etc.) are linking against a potentially old std built by the old rustc. It is much simpler to always re-hard-link everything and gives you a lot of nice properties as a result.

@WaffleLapkin let's require for now that people need to use build rustfmt miri to get both at once; if we agree on a way to make that simpler in the future we can make it better then. Having a way to get the tools is better than nothing :)

I can't get miri working, after x build miri cargo-miri, cargo +stage1 miri test fails with the following:

clippy doesn't work either, although for a different reason. x build clippy only builds (?copied) clippy-driver, but not cargo-clippy, while x build cargo-clippy doesn't work at all:

error: no `build` rules matched ["cargo-clippy"]

clippy mystery solved: both cargo-clippy and clippy-driver use the same path:

rust/src/bootstrap/tool.rs

Lines 869 to 870 in 91931ec

CargoClippy, "src/tools/clippy", "cargo-clippy", stable=true, in_tree=true, {};
Clippy, "src/tools/clippy", "clippy-driver", stable=true, in_tree=true, {};

We then only allow one thing to be called with a given path:

// Handle all test suite paths.
// (This is separate from the loop below to avoid having to handle multiple paths in `is_suite_path` somehow.)
paths.retain(|path| {
for (desc, should_run) in v.iter().zip(&should_runs) {
if let Some(suite) = should_run.is_suite_path(&path) {
desc.maybe_run(builder, vec![suite.clone()]);
return false;
}
}
true
});

So only the first one (happens to be clippy-driver) is being built.

If I change paths to be different bootstrap tries to build both (I say tries, because error: manifest path /home/waffle/rust-b/src/tools/clippy/src/driver.rs/Cargo.toml does not exist).

Not sure what to do with this though

I can't get miri working, after x build miri cargo-miri, cargo +stage1 miri test fails with the following:

We can worry about fixing that once your PR is merged :)

I agree the clippy stuff looks like a bug in bootstrap itself, I've pushed a commit that should fix it.

r=me, seems okay. I don't think there's anything inherently wrong in multiple things sharing the same path, though it will further hinder the efforts to make --exclude and such actually run (or stop running) a specific thing.

Great, thank you :)

@WaffleLapkin this is ready to merge once you fix the conflicts :)

In particular, this allows `CargoClippy` and `Clippy` to both use `src/tools/clippy` as the path.

@WaffleLapkin I found that even clippy has the sysroot bug you mentioned for miri - I think we need to be doing some extra magic (maybe with -rpath?) to make sure clippy can find the sysroot.

@bors r- this isn't useful as-is
