Tracking Issue for trim-paths RFC 3127

[ehuss]

Summary

RFC: #3127
Documentation: https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/unstable.html#profile-trim-paths-option
Issues: Z-trim-paths Nightly: path sanitization
rustc tracking issue: rust-lang/rust#111540

This adds a new profile setting (among other things) to control how paths are sanitized in the resulting binary.

Unresolved Issues

• Should make --remap-path-prefix work with rustdoc and doctest?
  • Yes as rustdoc supports both
    • rustdoc: Add support for --remap-path-prefix rust#107099
    • Fix rustdoc missing handling of remap-path-prefix option rust#128736
  • Integrate --remap-path-prefix in rustdoc invocations (cargo doc) feat(trim-paths): rustdoc supports trim-paths for diagnostics  #14389
  • Integrate --remap-path-prefix and -Zremap-path-scope in doctest (cargo test --doc)
• Determine the remap rules: trim-paths: Remap rules for different dependency kinds #13171
  • A cross-platform stable hash for CARGO_HOME layout?
    • benchmark BLAKE3, BLAKE2s, and rustc-stable-shaer feat!: use stable hash from rustc-stable-hash #14116

About tracking issues

Tracking issues are used to record the overall progress of implementation.
They are also used 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.

Implementation history

• feat: implement RFC 3127 -Ztrim-paths #12625
• feat(trim-paths): set env CARGO_TRIM_PATHS for build scripts #12900
• fix: merge trim-paths from different profiles  #12908
• feat(trim-paths): rustdoc supports trim-paths for diagnostics  #14389

Is this working on Linux, well enough that we could ship it for Linux without promising macOS support?

This is the latest status of it on rustc side: rust-lang/rust#111540 (comment), which the new remap rule in the conclusion is implemented. I've updated the unresolved issues section in this tracking issue.

Status update:

• This change rustdoc: Add support for --remap-path-prefix rust#107099 should make -Ztrim-paths also work for rustdoc
• A stable hasher extracting from rustc is on its way. See also
  • Extract rustc stable hasher into it's own crate compiler-team#755
  • Bootstrap the rustc-stable-hash crate rustc-stable-hash#1

rust-lang/rust#107099 is just merged, so should be able to support for rustdoc.

Edit: need to adjust cargo to pass --remap-path-prefix to rustdoc invocations.

Updated:

• doctest has supported remapping: Simplify trim-paths feature by merging all debuginfo options together rust#122450
• rustdoc diagnostics hasn't: rustdoc: use remap-path-prefix rust#69264 (comment)

That potentially blocks this, if we would like to see -Ztrim-paths supports also for rustdoc invocations.

both of those linked are closed/merged what is left blocking to get trimpaths working?

@liciana24 There are some unresolved issues listed in the PR description I just updated.

It should minimally work. Any feedback of it not working?
