1//! This is a densely packed error representation which is used on targets with
2//! 64-bit pointers.
3//!
4//! (Note that `bitpacked` vs `unpacked` here has no relationship to
5//! `#[repr(packed)]`, it just refers to attempting to use any available bits in
6//! a more clever manner than `rustc`'s default layout algorithm would).
7//!
8//! Conceptually, it stores the same data as the "unpacked" equivalent we use on
9//! other targets. Specifically, you can imagine it as an optimized version of
10//! the following enum (which is roughly equivalent to what's stored by
11//! `repr_unpacked::Repr`, e.g. `super::ErrorData<Box<Custom>>`):
12//!
13//! ```ignore (exposition-only)
14//! enum ErrorData {
15//! Os(i32),
16//! Simple(ErrorKind),
17//! SimpleMessage(&'static SimpleMessage),
18//! Custom(Box<Custom>),
19//! }
20//! ```
21//!
22//! However, it packs this data into a 64bit non-zero value.
23//!
24//! This optimization not only allows `io::Error` to occupy a single pointer,
25//! but improves `io::Result` as well, especially for situations like
26//! `io::Result<()>` (which is now 64 bits) or `io::Result<u64>` (which is now
27//! 128 bits), which are quite common.
28//!
29//! # Layout
30//! Tagged values are 64 bits, with the 2 least significant bits used for the
31//! tag. This means there are there are 4 "variants":
32//!
33//! - **Tag 0b00**: The first variant is equivalent to
34//! `ErrorData::SimpleMessage`, and holds a `&'static SimpleMessage` directly.
35//!
36//! `SimpleMessage` has an alignment >= 4 (which is requested with
37//! `#[repr(align)]` and checked statically at the bottom of this file), which
38//! means every `&'static SimpleMessage` should have the both tag bits as 0,
39//! meaning its tagged and untagged representation are equivalent.
40//!
41//! This means we can skip tagging it, which is necessary as this variant can
42//! be constructed from a `const fn`, which probably cannot tag pointers (or
43//! at least it would be difficult).
44//!
45//! - **Tag 0b01**: The other pointer variant holds the data for
46//! `ErrorData::Custom` and the remaining 62 bits are used to store a
47//! `Box<Custom>`. `Custom` also has alignment >= 4, so the bottom two bits
48//! are free to use for the tag.
49//!
50//! The only important thing to note is that `ptr::wrapping_add` and
51//! `ptr::wrapping_sub` are used to tag the pointer, rather than bitwise
52//! operations. This should preserve the pointer's provenance, which would
53//! otherwise be lost.
54//!
55//! - **Tag 0b10**: Holds the data for `ErrorData::Os(i32)`. We store the `i32`
56//! in the pointer's most significant 32 bits, and don't use the bits `2..32`
57//! for anything. Using the top 32 bits is just to let us easily recover the
58//! `i32` code with the correct sign.
59//!
60//! - **Tag 0b11**: Holds the data for `ErrorData::Simple(ErrorKind)`. This
61//! stores the `ErrorKind` in the top 32 bits as well, although it doesn't
62//! occupy nearly that many. Most of the bits are unused here, but it's not
63//! like we need them for anything else yet.
64//!
65//! # Use of `NonNull<()>`
66//!
67//! Everything is stored in a `NonNull<()>`, which is odd, but actually serves a
68//! purpose.
69//!
70//! Conceptually you might think of this more like:
71//!
72//! ```ignore (exposition-only)
73//! union Repr {
74//! // holds integer (Simple/Os) variants, and
75//! // provides access to the tag bits.
76//! bits: NonZeroU64,
77//! // Tag is 0, so this is stored untagged.
78//! msg: &'static SimpleMessage,
79//! // Tagged (offset) `Box<Custom>` pointer.
80//! tagged_custom: NonNull<()>,
81//! }
82//! ```
83//!
84//! But there are a few problems with this:
85//!
86//! 1. Union access is equivalent to a transmute, so this representation would
87//! require we transmute between integers and pointers in at least one
88//! direction, which may be UB (and even if not, it is likely harder for a
89//! compiler to reason about than explicit ptr->int operations).
90//!
91//! 2. Even if all fields of a union have a niche, the union itself doesn't,
92//! although this may change in the future. This would make things like
93//! `io::Result<()>` and `io::Result<usize>` larger, which defeats part of
94//! the motivation of this bitpacking.
95//!
96//! Storing everything in a `NonZeroUsize` (or some other integer) would be a
97//! bit more traditional for pointer tagging, but it would lose provenance
98//! information, couldn't be constructed from a `const fn`, and would probably
99//! run into other issues as well.
100//!
101//! The `NonNull<()>` seems like the only alternative, even if it's fairly odd
102//! to use a pointer type to store something that may hold an integer, some of
103//! the time.
