The size of a lexer Token was inflated by the largest TokenKind variants LiteralKind::RawStr and RawByteStr, because

  • it used usize although u32 is sufficient in rustc, since crates must be smaller than 4GB,
  • and it stored the 20 bytes big RawStrError enum for error reporting.

If a raw string is invalid, it now needs to be reparsed to get the RawStrError data, but that is a very cold code path.

Technically this breaks other tools that depend on rustc_lexer because they are now also restricted to a max file size of 4GB. But this shouldn't matter in practice, and rustc_lexer isn't stable anyway.

Can I also get a perf run?

Edit: This makes no difference in performance. The PR now only contains a small cleanup.

I fixed the test failure and added @pickfire's suggestion.

I don't understand why bors timed out. Was it spurious?
Can I get another perf run?

I noticed a potential bug in eat_while(): it doesn't account for the number of UTF8 bytes.
Fixed it by inlining it in the two places where the count is used and also simplified the logic there.
It might be a little perf improvement too.

@Xanewok can you restart the perf-run? EDIT: Nevermind. Sorry for bothering you.

@Julian-Wollersberger bug fixes don't need a perf run IMO, unless they strongly affect perf.

I guess rust-timer got stuck. @Mark-Simulacrum do you know what happened here and can you restart the perf run?
Maybe rust-timer got confused because bors timed out?

Benchmarking this pull request likely means that it is perf-sensitive, so we're automatically marking it as not fit for rolling up. Please note that if the perf results are neutral, you should likely undo the rollup=never given below by specifying rollup- to bors.

Importantly, though, if the results of this run are non-neutral do not roll this PR up -- it will mask other regressions or improvements in the roll up.

The perf results couldn't be more neutral. Oh well.
I've removed the first two commits and only the bugfix remains. This can be rollup=always I guess.

Changing usize to u32 might still be worth it as a cleanup so rustc_lexer is more consistent with the rest of rustc. Opinions?
@varkor this is ready for review again.

Oh, there doesn't seemed to be much performance gain but I wonder if memory footprint is reduced? From what I see the memory footprint is not tracked in the benchmarks.

Please update the PR description and title if you significantly change the pull request, right now it is not clear that this is a bugfix. I would also expect to see a test case if there is a bug being fixed here.

It's noisy as always but in terms of the memory it's neutral/slightly worse.

Ok, makes sense. Done.

Sorry, I wasn't precise. It could have been a bug if the count returned by eat_while() was used in a place where non-ASCII chars can be, but luckily it was only used to count the '#' in raw strings, which are ASCII chars.
So it's not really a bugfix but a cleanup to prevent a potential bug.

(There is PR rust-lang/rustc-perf#782 to improve the design.)

Cleanup of `eat_while()` in lexer

The size of a lexer Token was inflated by the largest `TokenKind` variants `LiteralKind::RawStr` and `RawByteStr`, because
* it used `usize` although `u32` is sufficient in rustc, since crates must be smaller than 4GB,
* and it stored the 20 bytes big `RawStrError` enum for error reporting.

If a raw string is invalid, it now needs to be reparsed to get the `RawStrError` data, but that is a very cold code path.

Technically this breaks other tools that depend on rustc_lexer because they are now also restricted to a max file size of 4GB. But this shouldn't matter in practice, and rustc_lexer isn't stable anyway.

Shrink Token.
99f5c79 
From 72 bytes to 12 bytes (on x86-64).

There are two parts to this:
- Changing various source code offsets from 64-bit to 32-bit. This is
  not a problem because the rest of rustc also uses 32-bit source code
  offsets. This means `Token` is no longer `Copy` but this causes no
  problems.
- Removing the `RawStrError` from `LiteralKind`. Raw string literal
  invalidity is now indicated by a `None` value within
  `RawStr`/`RawByteStr`, and the new `validate_raw_str` function can be
  used to re-lex an invalid raw string literal to get the `RawStrError`.

There is one very small change in behaviour. Previously, if a raw string
literal matched both the `InvalidStarter` and `TooManyHashes` cases,
the latter would override the former. This has now changed, because
`raw_double_quoted_string` now uses `?` and so returns immediately upon
detecting the `InvalidStarter` case. I think this is a slight
improvement to report the earlier-detected error, and it explains the
change in the `test_too_many_hashes` test.

The commit also removes a couple of comments that refer to rust-lang#77629 and
say that the size of these types don't affect performance. These
comments are wrong, though the performance effect is small.
