This is a tracking issue for proc_macro::is_available().
The feature gate for the issue is #![feature(proc_macro_is_available)].

About tracking issues

Tracking issues are used to record the overall progress of implementation.
They are also uses as hubs connecting to other relevant issues, e.g., bugs or open design questions.
A tracking issue is however not meant for large scale discussion, questions, or bug reports about a feature.
Instead, open a dedicated issue for the specific matter and add the relevant feature gate label.

Steps

Implement -- proc_macro::is_available() #71400

Is anything blocking stabilization of this feature? It seems pretty uncontroversial - if the proc_macro crate ever gained the ability to be used outside of a procedural macro, this function could just unconditionally return true.

dtolnay · 2020-06-12T22:45:39Z

One non-uncontroversial part is how to react if proc_macro might not be all-or-nothing in the future. For example if the whole token API is made to work outside a proc macro, but the diagnostics API via Span (warn, error, note, etc) would not be available.

bjorn3 · 2021-06-25T17:56:49Z

If the token api is made to work outside a proc macro, but the diagnostics api is not, I think users of proc_macro can just access the token api without checking is_available and maybe only check the rustc version. Usage of the diagnostics api should then still be behind a is_available check. Basically if it always works, is_available shouldn't be used, but if it only works inside a proc macro, is_available should be used.

bjorn3 · 2021-06-25T17:59:27Z

I would really like for this feature to be stabilized. proc_macro2 is currently unusable with cg_clif outside of proc macros, as it checks if a proc macro function panics when being called. cg_clif doesn't yet support unwinding on panics. Also if the function proc_macro2 checks becomes available outside of a proc macro, that will break proc_macro2 usage outside of proc macros, so the sooner it migrates to is_available the better.

Does the workaround described here not work for you? I'm running into a similar use-case, but the proc_macro2::fallback::force() function is a sufficient escape-hatch for now

bjorn3 · 2021-07-15T20:52:37Z

That doesn't help when you don't control the source. proc-macro2 is used by a dependency of the user's project most of the time. And even if it isn't, I can't except users of cg_clif to always add proc_macro2::fallback::force() to their build scripts. I would like something that works out of the box.

jhpratt · 2021-09-08T22:53:30Z

I still share the concern that some APIs (but not all) may, in the future, be permitted to be used in any context, not just proc macros. Wouldn't #[cfg(accessible(...))] encompass this and at the same time be more powerful, flexible, and forward-thinking?

bjorn3 · 2021-09-09T08:31:04Z

#[cfg(accessible(...))] only tests if the api exists at all in the current rustc version. It doesn't test if you can actually call it without getting a panic in the current context. For dependencies it is impossible to know if it will be run as part of a proc-macro or not. In addition a proc-macro may want to spawn a thread, in which case the thread isn't allowed to call into libproc_macro.

…lable, r=petrochenkov Stabilize proc_macro::is_available Tracking issue: rust-lang#71436 The FCP for the stabilization of `proc_macro::is_available` has completed.

2915: Update rust-toolchain to 2021-12-04 r=ppannuto a=lschuermann ### Pull Request Overview This pull request updates the Rust toolchain to version `1.59.0-nightly (efec54529 2021-12-04)`. The motivation for this change is that the `litex-sim-ci` breaks when compiling `elf2tab` on the previous toolchain version: ``` error[E0658]: use of unstable library feature 'proc_macro_is_available' --> /home/runner/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/proc-macro2-1.0.33/src/detection.rs:28:21 | 28 | let available = proc_macro::is_available(); | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | = note: see issue #71436 <rust-lang/rust#71436> for more information = help: add `#![feature(proc_macro_is_available)]` to the crate attributes to enable For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0658`. error: could not compile `proc-macro2` due to previous error warning: build failed, waiting for other jobs to finish... error: failed to compile `elf2tab v0.8.0`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `/tmp/cargo-installl05bA0` ``` Now, I'm not entirely sure as to why this happens. We haven't upgraded either of the Rust toolchain or `elf2tab`, and -- as far as I understand -- `cargo install elf2tab` should use the `Cargo.lock` file, so dependencies shouldn't change. In any case, this update seems to fix it. Besides the failing `litex-sim-ci` workflow, it seems like a good idea to pin a `rustc` version on which vital tools such as `elf2tab` properly compile. I can also reproduce the `elf2tab` build failure locally while the `rust-toolchain` of the Tock repository is used. ### Testing Strategy This pull request was tested by CI. ### TODO or Help Wanted N/A ### Documentation Updated - [x] ~Updated the relevant files in `/docs`,~ or no updates are required. ### Formatting - [x] Ran `make prepush`.

You should update proc-macro2 (if you depend on it) and update to the latest rustc version.
