Remove `Ident::empty` #140252

nnethercote · 2025-04-24T12:37:42Z

All uses have been removed. And it's nonsensical: an identifier by definition has at least one char.

Oh, the first commit here is from #140095 and doesn't need to be reviewed; this PR shouldn't be merged until that one has been.

All uses have been removed. And it's nonsensical: an identifier by definition has at least one char. The commits adds an is-non-empty assertion to `Ident::new` to enforce this, and converts some `Ident` constructions to use `Ident::new`. Adding the assertion requires making `Ident::new` and `Ident::with_dummy_span` non-const, which is no great loss. The commit amends a couple of places that do path splitting to ensure no empty identifiers are created.

How to interpret the job duration changes?

Job durations can vary a lot, based on the actual runner instance
that executed the job, system noise, invalidated caches, etc. The table above is provided
mostly for t-infra members, for simpler debugging of potential CI slow-downs.

Finished benchmarking commit (a7b1b24): comparison URL.

Overall result: ❌ regressions - please read the text below

Our benchmarks found a performance regression caused by this PR.
This might be an actual regression, but it can also be just noise.

Next Steps:

If the regression was expected or you think it can be justified,
please write a comment with sufficient written justification, and add
@rustbot label: +perf-regression-triaged to it, to mark the regression as triaged.
If you think that you know of a way to resolve the regression, try to create
a new PR with a fix for the regression.
If you do not understand the regression or you think that it is just noise,
you can ask the @rust-lang/wg-compiler-performance working group for help (members of this group
were already notified of this PR).

Ugh, perf regressions were not expected. I'll take a look, though I might not get to it until after RustWeek.

This fixes a perf regression introduced in rust-lang#140252.
