Description
What would it take to make compiler_builtins
be something that didn't need to manually be installed? There are a few approaches:
- For rustup to include it as a component, so that installation is easier (and it is automatically updated etc.).
- That the
rust
repo includes it (moonshot, but for those that needrust-src
it is much more likely that they need it too). - Removing it as a dependency by copying the needed builtins into the tree (the kernel does this for others, too).
- Removing it as a dependency by not using
alloc
(e.g. if for other reasons we end up with our ownalloc
).
