Avoid underflow in render_source_line
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
While testing #47655 I was able to make the compiler panic
when it's compiled with debug assertions:

```shell
> rustc /dev/null --crate-type proc-macro

error: internal compiler error: unexpected panic

note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.

note: we would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports

note: rustc 1.25.0-dev running on x86_64-apple-darwin

note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` for a backtrace

thread 'rustc' panicked at 'attempt to subtract with overflow', librustc_errors/emitter.rs:287:49
```

Without debug assertions the following warning is emitted:

```shell
> rustc /dev/null --crate-type proc-macro

warning: unused variable: `registrar`
 --> /dev/null:0:1
  |
  |
  = note: #[warn(unused_variables)] on by default
  = note: to avoid this warning, consider using `_registrar` instead
```

The panic is due to the unused variable warning being spanned to
`/dev/null:0:1`. When `render_source_line` subtracts 1 from the line
number to look up the source line it panics due to underflow. Without
debug assertions this would wrap and cause us to return a blank string
instead.

Fix by explicitly testing for 0 and exiting early. I'm unsure how to
automatically test this now that #46655 has been approved.
