Optimize Vec::insert for the case where index == len. #98755

By skipping the call to copy with a zero length. This makes it closer
to push.

I did this recently for SmallVec
(servo/rust-smallvec#282) and it was a big perf win in
one case. Although I don't have a specific use case in mind, it seems
worth doing it for Vec as well.

Things to note:

  • In the index < len case, the number of conditions checked is
    unchanged.
  • In the index == len case, the number of conditions checked increases
    by one, but the more expensive zero-length copy is avoided.
  • In the index > len case the code now reserves space for the extra
    element before panicking. This seems like an unimportant change.

Hey! It looks like you've submitted a new PR for the library teams!

If this PR contains changes to any rust-lang/rust public library APIs then please comment with @rustbot label +T-libs-api -T-libs to tag it appropriately. If this PR contains changes to any unstable APIs please edit the PR description to add a link to the relevant API Change Proposal or create one if you haven't already. If you're unsure where your change falls no worries, just leave it as is and the reviewer will take a look and make a decision to forward on if necessary.

Examples of T-libs-api changes:

  • Stabilizing library features
  • Introducing insta-stable changes such as new implementations of existing stable traits on existing stable types
  • Introducing new or changing existing unstable library APIs (excluding permanently unstable features / features without a tracking issue)
  • Changing public documentation in ways that create new stability guarantees
  • Changing observable runtime behavior of library APIs

OK -- let's merge alone for perf, but I'm not sure if it's used anywhere in the compiler anyway.

Cargo
-----
- [Packages can now inherit settings from the workspace so that
  the settings can be centralized in one place.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10859) See
  [`workspace.package`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-workspacepackage-table)
  and
  [`workspace.dependencies`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-workspacedependencies-table)
  for more details on how to define these common settings.
- [Cargo commands can now accept multiple `--target` flags to build
  for multiple targets at once]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10766), and the
  [`build.target`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/config.html#buildtarget)
  config option may now take an array of multiple targets.
- [The `--jobs` argument can now take a negative number to count
  backwards from the max CPUs.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10844)
- [`cargo add` will now update `Cargo.lock`.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10902)
- [Added](rust-lang/cargo#10838) the
  [`--crate-type`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/commands/cargo-rustc.html#option-cargo-rustc---crate-type)
  flag to `cargo rustc` to override the crate type.
- [Significantly improved the performance fetching git dependencies from GitHub
  when using a hash in the `rev` field.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10079)

Misc
----
- [The `rust-analyzer` rustup component is now available on the stable channel.]
  (rust-lang/rust#98640)

Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- The minimum required versions for all `-linux-gnu` targets are
  now at least kernel 3.2 and glibc 2.17, for targets that previously
  supported older versions: [Increase the minimum linux-gnu
  versions](rust-lang/rust#95026)
- [Network primitives are now implemented with the ideal Rust
  layout, not the C system layout]
  (rust-lang/rust#78802). This can
  cause problems when transmuting the types.
- [Add assertion that `transmute_copy`'s `U` is not larger than `T`]
  (rust-lang/rust#98839)
- [A soundness bug in `BTreeMap` was fixed]
  (rust-lang/rust#99413) that allowed data
  it was borrowing to be dropped before the container.
- [The Drop behavior of C-like enums cast to ints has changed]
  (rust-lang/rust#96862). These are already
  discouraged by a compiler warning.
- [Relate late-bound closure lifetimes to parent fn in NLL]
  (rust-lang/rust#98835)
- [Errors at const-eval time are now in future incompatibility reports]
  (rust-lang/rust#97743)
- On the `thumbv6m-none-eabi` target, some incorrect `asm!` statements
  were erroneously accepted if they used the high registers (r8 to
  r14) as an input/output operand. [This is no longer accepted]
  (rust-lang/rust#99155).
- [`impl Trait` was accidentally accepted as the associated type
  value of return-position `impl Trait`]
  (rust-lang/rust#97346), without
  fulfilling all the trait bounds of that associated type, as long
  as the hidden type satisfies said bounds. This has been fixed.

Internal Changes
----------------

These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they
represent significant improvements to the performance or internals
of rustc and related tools.

- Windows builds now use profile-guided optimization, providing
  10-20% improvements to compiler performance: [Utilize PGO for
  windows x64 rustc dist builds]
  (rust-lang/rust#96978)
- [Stop keeping metadata in memory before writing it to disk]
  (rust-lang/rust#96544)
- [compiletest: strip debuginfo by default for mode=ui]
  (rust-lang/rust#98140)
- Many improvements to generated code for derives, including
  performance improvements:
  - [Don't use match-destructuring for derived ops on structs.]
    (rust-lang/rust#98446)
  - [Many small deriving cleanups]
    (rust-lang/rust#98741)
  - [More derive output improvements]
    (rust-lang/rust#98758)
  - [Clarify deriving code](rust-lang/rust#98915)
  - [Final derive output improvements]
    (rust-lang/rust#99046)
  - [Stop injecting `#[allow(unused_qualifications)]` in generated
    `derive` implementations](rust-lang/rust#99485)
  - [Improve `derive(Debug)`](rust-lang/rust#98190)
- [Bump to clap 3](rust-lang/rust#98213)
- [fully move dropck to mir](rust-lang/rust#98641)
- [Optimize `Vec::insert` for the case where `index == len`.]
  (rust-lang/rust#98755)
- [Convert rust-analyzer to an in-tree tool]
  (rust-lang/rust#99603)
netbsd-srcmastr pushed a commit to NetBSD/pkgsrc that referenced this pull request Nov 16, 2022
Pkgsrc changes:
 * This package now contains rust-analyzer, so implicitly
   conflicts with that pkgsrc package.  The same goes for
   the rust-src package.
 * Add NetBSD/arm6 port
 * Add unfinished NetBSD/mipsel port
 * Revert the use of the internal LLVM,
   should now build with the new pkgsrc LLVM (15).
 * Add depndence on compat80 for sparc64 to fix the build
 * Adapt patches
 * Add CHECK_INTERPRETER_SKIP for a few (mostly unused) files.
   (A proper fix may come later.)

Cargo
-----
- [Packages can now inherit settings from the workspace so that
  the settings can be centralized in one place.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10859) See
  [`workspace.package`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-workspacepackage-table)
  and
  [`workspace.dependencies`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-workspacedependencies-table)
  for more details on how to define these common settings.
- [Cargo commands can now accept multiple `--target` flags to build
  for multiple targets at once]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10766), and the
  [`build.target`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/config.html#buildtarget)
  config option may now take an array of multiple targets.
- [The `--jobs` argument can now take a negative number to count
  backwards from the max CPUs.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10844)
- [`cargo add` will now update `Cargo.lock`.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10902)
- [Added](rust-lang/cargo#10838) the
  [`--crate-type`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/commands/cargo-rustc.html#option-cargo-rustc---crate-type)
  flag to `cargo rustc` to override the crate type.
- [Significantly improved the performance fetching git dependencies from GitHub
  when using a hash in the `rev` field.]
  (rust-lang/cargo#10079)

Misc
----
- [The `rust-analyzer` rustup component is now available on the stable channel.]
  (rust-lang/rust#98640)

Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- The minimum required versions for all `-linux-gnu` targets are
  now at least kernel 3.2 and glibc 2.17, for targets that previously
  supported older versions: [Increase the minimum linux-gnu
  versions](rust-lang/rust#95026)
- [Network primitives are now implemented with the ideal Rust
  layout, not the C system layout]
  (rust-lang/rust#78802). This can
  cause problems when transmuting the types.
- [Add assertion that `transmute_copy`'s `U` is not larger than `T`]
  (rust-lang/rust#98839)
- [A soundness bug in `BTreeMap` was fixed]
  (rust-lang/rust#99413) that allowed data
  it was borrowing to be dropped before the container.
- [The Drop behavior of C-like enums cast to ints has changed]
  (rust-lang/rust#96862). These are already
  discouraged by a compiler warning.
- [Relate late-bound closure lifetimes to parent fn in NLL]
  (rust-lang/rust#98835)
- [Errors at const-eval time are now in future incompatibility reports]
  (rust-lang/rust#97743)
- On the `thumbv6m-none-eabi` target, some incorrect `asm!` statements
  were erroneously accepted if they used the high registers (r8 to
  r14) as an input/output operand. [This is no longer accepted]
  (rust-lang/rust#99155).
- [`impl Trait` was accidentally accepted as the associated type
  value of return-position `impl Trait`]
  (rust-lang/rust#97346), without
  fulfilling all the trait bounds of that associated type, as long
  as the hidden type satisfies said bounds. This has been fixed.

Internal Changes
----------------

These changes do not affect any public interfaces of Rust, but they
represent significant improvements to the performance or internals
of rustc and related tools.

- Windows builds now use profile-guided optimization, providing
  10-20% improvements to compiler performance: [Utilize PGO for
  windows x64 rustc dist builds]
  (rust-lang/rust#96978)
- [Stop keeping metadata in memory before writing it to disk]
  (rust-lang/rust#96544)
- [compiletest: strip debuginfo by default for mode=ui]
  (rust-lang/rust#98140)
- Many improvements to generated code for derives, including
  performance improvements:
  - [Don't use match-destructuring for derived ops on structs.]
    (rust-lang/rust#98446)
  - [Many small deriving cleanups]
    (rust-lang/rust#98741)
  - [More derive output improvements]
    (rust-lang/rust#98758)
  - [Clarify deriving code](rust-lang/rust#98915)
  - [Final derive output improvements]
    (rust-lang/rust#99046)
  - [Stop injecting `#[allow(unused_qualifications)]` in generated
    `derive` implementations](rust-lang/rust#99485)
  - [Improve `derive(Debug)`](rust-lang/rust#98190)
- [Bump to clap 3](rust-lang/rust#98213)
- [fully move dropck to mir](rust-lang/rust#98641)
- [Optimize `Vec::insert` for the case where `index == len`.]
  (rust-lang/rust#98755)
- [Convert rust-analyzer to an in-tree tool]
  (rust-lang/rust#99603)
