Crate rustc_target

Some stuff used by rustc that doesn’t have many dependencies

Originally extracted from rustc::back, which was nominally the compiler ‘backend’, though LLVM is rustc’s backend, so rustc_target is really just odds-and-ends relating to code gen and linking. This crate mostly exists to make rustc smaller, so we might put more ‘stuff’ here in the future. It does not have a dependency on LLVM.

Modules

abi

asm

json

spec

Flexible target specification.

Constants

RUST_LIB_DIR 🔒

The name of rustc’s own place to organize libraries.

Traits

HashStableContext

Requirements for a StableHashingContext to be used in this crate. This is a hack to allow using the HashStable_Generic derive macro instead of implementing everything in rustc_middle.

Functions

find_libdir 🔒

The name of the directory rustc expects libraries to be located.

target_rustlib_path

Returns a rustlib path for this particular target, relative to the provided sysroot.
