Support Windows ARM

[retep998]

Windows does exist on ARM devices, so it makes sense for Rust to try to support it.

We want this too. Is anyone else working on this? I've been working on it for about a week and am stuck on the following error.

	LLVM ERROR: Cannot select: t10: ch = cleanupret t9

I have not been able to find much information on cleanupret, but I think this error may have to do something with exception handling. Any suggestions on how to debug this issue further would be appreciated.

[jordanrh1]

After enabling debugging options in config.toml, I'm seeing a different error:

LLVM ERROR: target does not implement codeview register mapping
error: Could not compile `core`.

I captured a dump of the failing call stack. Surprisingly, the rust code has source line information, and windbg can pull up the source code. But the LLVM code, which is C++, does not have source information. It looks like the llvm code is compiled directly into the rustc_codegen_llvm_llvm module, which already has private PDB symbols loaded.

Any ideas why there's no debug information for the llvm code? Also, any information on the actual LLVM error would be appreciated!

I think it has to do with lack of Clang/LLVM support for EH exceptions on ARM. I wrote a simple test that throws an exception and tried to compile it with clang++ for arm-pc-windows-msvc. It fails with the following message.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdexcept>

int main()
{
        printf("Hello ...\n");
        try {
                throw std::runtime_error("this is an exception message");
        } catch (const std::exception& ex) {
                fprintf(stderr, "Error: %s\n", ex.what());
        }

        printf("World\n");
        return 0;
}

Output:

Can we try with panic=abort?

[jordanrh1]

Yep, I got past it by setting panic_strategy=PanicStrategy::Abort in the target spec. After working through a number of other issues I'm now able to generate executables. Current issue is that callback entries in the TLS Directory do not have the thumb bit set, which causes an illegal instruction exception when the loader tries to run the TLS callbacks at load time.

[jordanrh1]

Got rust binaries running on Windows/ARM by changing LLVM target from armv7 to thumbv7a.
