I couldn't find `time_ns` when I was looking for it, nice to make clear
the "monotonic" clock is also available in Base.

…uliaLang#57241)

The `fork()` we do here relies on `SIGCHLD` to make sure that we don't
race against the child.

This is easy to see in an embedding application that dynamically links
`libjulia`:
```c
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN);
    void *handle = dlopen("path/to/libjulia.so", RTLD_LAZY);
    return 0;
}
```

Without this change, this fails with an error message:
```
Error during libstdcxxprobe in parent process:
waitpid: No child processes
```

Resolves JuliaLang#57240

(cherry picked from commit daf865e)
Restores JuliaLang#57035, undo JuliaLang#57089 for non-FreeBSD. While I suggested doing
this change for all platforms, I forgot that means non-FreeBSD platforms
become vulnerable again to the very deadlock problems that JuliaLang#57035 was
required to prevent. That fix seems to not be viable on FreeBSD due to
known libc implementation problems on that platform. However, upon
closer inspection of the questionable design implementation decisions
they seem to have made here, the platform is likely not currently
vulnerable to this libunwind bug in the first place:

…57211)

It looks like these methods were just missed while overloading for
BufferStream.

There's also `readbytes!` where the current implementation will fallback
to the `LibuvStream` implementation that is currently not threadsafe.
What's the best approach there since the implementation is quite a bit
more involved? Just duplicate the code but for BufferStream? Should we
take the BufferStream lock and invoke the LibuvStream method? Open to
ideas there.

Also open to suggestions for having tests here? Not easy to simulate the
data race of writing and calling readavailable.

The fix here will unblock JuliaWeb/HTTP.jl#1213
(I'll probably do some compat shim there until this is fully released).

Thanks to @oscardssmith for rubber ducking this issue with me.

Probably most helpfully reviewed by @vtjnash.

This is the final PR in the binding partitions series (modulo bugs and
tweaks), i.e. it closes JuliaLang#54654 and thus closes JuliaLang#40399, which was the
original design sketch.

This thus activates the full designed semantics for binding partitions,
in particular allowing safe replacement of const bindings. It in
particular allows struct redefinitions. This thus closes
timholy/Revise.jl#18 and also closes JuliaLang#38584.

The biggest semantic change here is probably that this gets rid of the
notion of "resolvedness" of a binding. Previously, a lot of the behavior
of our implementation depended on when bindings were "resolved", which
could happen at basically an arbitrary point (in the compiler, in REPL
completion, in a different thread), making a lot of the semantics around
bindings ill- or at least implementation-defined. There are several
related issues in the bugtracker, so this closes JuliaLang#14055 closes JuliaLang#44604
closes JuliaLang#46354 closes JuliaLang#30277

It is also the last step to close JuliaLang#24569.
It also supports bindings for undef->defined transitions and thus closes
JuliaLang#53958 closes JuliaLang#54733 - however, this is not activated yet for
performance reasons and may need some further optimization.

Since resolvedness no longer exists, we need to replace it with some
hopefully more well-defined semantics. I will describe the semantics
below, but before I do I will make two notes:

1. There are a number of cases where these semantics will behave
slightly differently than the old semantics absent some other task going
around resolving random bindings.
2. The new behavior (except for the replacement stuff) was generally
permissible under the old semantics if the bindings happened to be
resolved at the right time.

With all that said, there are essentially three "strengths" of bindings:

1. Implicit Bindings: Anything implicitly obtained from `using Mod`, "no
binding", plus slightly more exotic corner cases around conflicts

2. Weakly declared bindings: Declared using `global sym` and nothing
else

3. Strongly declared bindings: Declared using `global sym::T`, `const
sym=val`, `import Mod: sym`, `using Mod: sym` or as an implicit strong
global declaration in `sym=val`, where `sym` is known to be global
(either by being at toplevle or as `global sym=val` inside a function).

In general, you always allowed to syntactically replace a weaker binding
by a stronger one (although the runtime permits arbitrary binding
deletion now, this is just a syntactic constraint to catch errors).
Second, any implicit binding can be replaced by other implicit bindings
as the result of changing the `using`'ed module. And lastly, any
constants may be replaced by any other constants (irrespective of type).

We do not currently allow replacing globals, but may consider changing
that in 1.13.

This is mostly how things used to work, as well in the absence of any
stray external binding resolutions. The most prominent difference is
probably this one:

```
set_foo!() = global foo = 1
```

In the above terminology, this now always declares a "strongly declared
binding", whereas before it declared a "weakly declared binding" that
would become strongly declared on first write to the global (unless of
course somebody had created a different strongly declared global in the
meantime). To see the difference, this is now disallowed:

```
julia> set_foo!() = global foo = 1
set_foo! (generic function with 1 method)

julia> const foo = 1
ERROR: cannot declare Main.foo constant; it was already declared global
Stacktrace:
 [1] top-level scope
   @ REPL[2]:1
```

Before it would depend on the order of binding resolution (although it
just crashes on current master for some reason - whoops, probably my
fault).

Another major change is the ambiguousness of imports. In:
```
module M1; export x; x=1; end
module M2; export x; x=2; end
using .M1, .M2
```
the binding `Main.x` is now always ambiguous and will throw on access.
Before which binding you get, would depend on resolution order. To
choose one, use an explicit import (which was the behavior you would
previously get if neither binding was resolved before both imports).

Fix JuliaLang#57223

(cherry picked from commit 97c920d)
Keno and others added 8 commits February 11, 2025 12:48
Addresses review comment in
JuliaLang#57212 (comment).
The key is that the hand-off of responsibility for verification between
the loading code and the ordinary backedge mechanism happens under the
world counter lock to ensure synchronization.

(cherry picked from commit 34aceb5)
Updating mmtk-julia version to include
mmtk/mmtk-julia#228 and fix the MMTk CI.

I've also changed the allocation profiler tests to skip all tests
instead of just a few since I've seen some spurious errors - they should
all be related though, we need to make sure the profiler accounts for
fastpath allocation (see
JuliaLang#57103)

This should fix JuliaLang#57306.

(cherry picked from commit 72f8a10)
Similar to JuliaLang#57229, this commit ensures that
`Compiler.finish!` properly synchronizes the operations to set
`max_world` for cached `CodeInstance`s by holding the world counter
lock. Previously, `Compiler.finish!` relied on a narrow timing window to
avoid race conditions, which was not a robust approach in a concurrent
execution environment.

This change ensures that `Compiler.finish!` holds the appropriate lock
(via `jl_promote_ci_to_current`).

(cherry picked from commit 4ebb50b)
This adds a warning for the auto-import of types cases (JuliaLang#25744) that we
have long considered a bit of a bug, but didn't want to change because
it is too breaking.

The reason to do it now is that the binding rework has made this case
more problematic (see JuliaLang#57290). To summarize, the question is what
happens when the compiler sees `f(x) = ...` and `f` is currently and
implicitly imported binding. There are two options:

1. We add a method to the generic function referred to by `f`, or
2. We create a new generic function `f` in the current module.

Historically, case 1 has the additional complication that this error'd
unless `f` is a type. It is my impression that a lot of existing code
did not have a particularly good understanding of the resolved-ness
dependence of this behavior.

However, because case 1 errors for generic functions, it appears that
existing code generally expects case 2. On the other hand, for types,
there is existing code in both directions (JuliaLang#57290 is an example of case
2; see JuliaLang#57302 for examples of case 1). That said, case 1 is more common
(because types tend to be resolved because they're used in signatures at
toplevel).

Thus, to retain compatibility, the current behavior on master (where
resolvedness is no longer available) is that we always choose case 2 for
functions and case 1 for types. This inconsistency is unfortunate, but I
tried resolving this in either way (making all situations case 1 or all
case 2) and the result was too breaking.

Nevertheless, it is problematic that there is existing code that expects
case 2 beavior for types and we should help users to know what the
correct way to fix it is. The proposed resolution is thus:
1. Retain case 1 behavior for types
2. Make it a warning to use, encouraging people to explicitly import,
since we generally consider the JuliaLang#25744 case a bug.

Example:
```
julia> module Foo
         String(i::Int) = i
       end
WARNING: Type Core.String was auto-`import`ed in `Foo`.
NOTE: This behavior is deprecated and may change in future Julia versions.
NOTE: This behavior may have differed in Julia versions prior to 1.12 depending on binding resolution.
Hint: To retain the current behavior, add an explicit `import Core: String` in Foo.
Hint: To create a new generic function of the same name use `function String end`.
Main.Foo
```

…uliaLang#57426)

An upcoming optimization will skip most binding validation if no binding
replacement has taken place in (sysimage, pkgimage) modules. However, as
a special case, we would like to treat `Main` as a non-sysimage module
because the addition of new bindings in `Main` is common and we would
like this to not ruin the optimization. To make this legal, we have to
prohibit `import`ing or `using` any `Main` bindings in pkgimages. I
don't think anybody actually does this, particularly, since `Main` is
not considered loading during precompile (so you have to use the main
binding via (Core|Base|).Main), and I can't think of any good semantic
reason to want to do this, but regardless, it does add additional
restrictions to `using`/`import`, so I wanted to break it out into its
own PR.

(cherry picked from commit 726c816)
…dules (JuliaLang#57433)

This implements the optimization proposed in JuliaLang#57426 by keeping track of
whether any bindings were replaced in image modules (excluding `Main` as
facilitated by JuliaLang#57426). In addition, we augment serialization to keep
track of whether a method body contains any GlobalRefs that point to a
loaded (system or package) image. If both of these flags are true, we
can skip scanning the body of the method, since we know that we neither
need to add any additional backedges nor were any of the referenced
bindings invalidated. The performance impact on end-to-end load time is
small, but measurable. Overall `@time using ModelingToolkit`
consistently improves about 5% using this PR. However, I should note
that using time is still about 40% slower than 1.11. This is not
necessarily an Apples-to-Apples comparison as there were substantial
other changes on 1.12 (as well as current load-time-tunings targeting
older versions), but I wanted to put the number context.

I was playing with strengthening the semantics around JuliaLang#57290. However,
the particular change I was trying turned out too breaking (I may try a
weaker version of it). Still, there were a number of good changes found
in two categories:

1. We should explicitly import types when defining constructors. This
has been allowed for a long time, but we may want to consider removing
it, especially given the new binding semantics which make it more
confusing as in JuliaLang#57290.

2. There were a couple of places where I don't think it was intended for
generic functions in question not to extend Base.

(cherry picked from commit 778e079)
Other backends (in this case NVPTX) require that `invariant.load`
metadata is maintained to generate non-coherent loads.

Currently, we unconditionally strip that metadata from all loads,
since our other uses of it may have become invalid.

…ng#57453)

This reverts a portion of commit
50833c8.

This algorithm is not able to handle simple cases where there is any
internal padding, such as the example of:
```
struct LotsBytes
    a::Int8
    b::NTuple{256,Int}
    c::Int
end
```

Unfortunately fixing it is a bit of a large project right now, so
reverting now to fix correctness while working on that.

Fixes JuliaLang#55513 (indirectly, by removing broken code) Maybe reopens JuliaLang#54109,
although the latency issue it proposes to fix doesn't occur on master
even with this revert (just the mediocre looking IR result output
returns)

(cherry picked from commit 0fb5fa0)
Fixes JuliaLang#56904.

The associated PR (JuliaLang#55876) compiles a finally block, then compiles a
renumbered version of it. This works if `compile` doesn't mutate its
input, but in reality, lambda bodies were being `set!` when linearized.
The "invalid syntax" error was a result of attempting to linearize a
lambda twice.

(cherry picked from commit 414aca2)
…al (JuliaLang#57447)

The `_DECLARED` partition kind used to be considered `guard`, but we now
consider it equivalent to an Any-typed `_GLOBAL` (but with weaker
redefinition properties). That said, its `->restriction` is NULL, so add
it to the list of bindings that should return `nothing` here (and thus
`Any` from the bulitin) to fix JuliaLang#57446.
