ci(stable): fix build issues to prepare for v1.28.0 release

[rami3l]

Before merging, we should also:

• Wait for Linkage error when cross-compiling for i686-pc-windows-gnu aws/aws-lc-rs#620 to land in a new release.
• Drop the DROP ME commit.

---

FWIW, because of rustls's migration to aws-lc-rs, with this PR:

• The reqwest/rustls/aws-lc-rs combo has become the default download backend on Linux for riscv*, s390x* and ppc32 platforms.
• netbsd and illumos builds have switched to reqwest/rustls/native-tls by default.

[heiher]

We need to temporarily disable the rustls feature for loongarch64-linux-{gnu,musl} until the libclang-dev adds support the LoongArch target.

@heiher Thanks for the heads up! I guess removing reqwest-rustls-tls would be enough as a last resort (#4094 (comment)). In the meantime, I'll try to configure bindgen-cli for the rest of the failures.

I tested the rustup-init-loongarch64-unknown-linux-gnu, and the following error was thrown when downloading:

error: could not download file from 'https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/channel-rust-stable.toml.sha256' to '/home/hev/.rustup/tmp/nf3c6b3n2mqj5w73_file': failed to make network request: download backend 'reqwest rustls' unavailable

@heiher Despite being not idiomatic, that's the expected behavior currently, as reqwest-rustls-tls is the new default now, so you'll need to export RUSTUP_USE_RUSTLS=0:

rustup/src/utils/mod.rs

Lines 251 to 253 in 14470b2

	let use_rustls = process
	.var_os("RUSTUP_USE_RUSTLS")
	.is_none_or(|it| it != "0");

... it'd definitely be nice to add cfg!() to the predicate before actually shipping this build, I believe.

@rami3l Thank you. Could you include this patch together as well?

@heiher Done! I guess it should be working now?

Acked. 👍

[rami3l]

Blocking on aws/aws-lc-rs#620.

[rami3l]

Oops, it looks like https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen/releases/tag/v0.71.0 has suddenly broken everything...

Not only are the prebuilt binaries and installer missing (as reported in rust-lang/rust-bindgen#3038, though our fallback to cargo install did work perfectly), but all bindgen-cli related workflows, namely those that depend on aws-lc, are now failing.

[rami3l]

I could lock the bindgen-cli version back to the old one, though I do think it's better to figure out what happened first.

[rami3l]

I strongly suspect that rust-lang/rust-bindgen#3039 has caused the build failure; checking --version upfront seems to be pretty standard WRT calling any subprocess.

Update: theory confirmed (https://github.com/aws/aws-lc-rs/blob/a7a70cbe163b22f6a4cd438ad2d0c668e2fbdc58/aws-lc-sys/builder/main.rs#L700).

[rami3l]

As aws/aws-lc-rs#627 is now open, I'll request the team's review first.

Of course, I'll finish the checklist before actually merging this PR.

I'm not yet familiar with rustup's CI setup. Is skip-master kept because we still expect master to fail after this PR is merged?

@ChrisDenton We don't run everything on master (that's how things had always been done way before my CI refactoring last year), and essentially the only moment we need to make sure all workflows are green is during a release, which is related to the stable CI rather than the master one.

I've already triggered the stable CI last week, and it failed; according to the parts that have failed during that run, I have temporarily enabled some workflows just for this PR. They will be disabled again before this PR is merged.

@ChrisDenton BTW if you're wondering why the master CI is currently failing, that's not related to the build-time behavior, but rather aws-cli, so essentially not an issue on our side, unfortunately :(

Update: I've made #4111.

[rami3l]

@djc aws-lc-* deps have been updated and are verified to build in https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup/actions/runs/12384929706 (don't mind the illumos build failure, I've now switched aws-lc-rs off for it while rebasing). As such, this PR is ready to be merged.

[djc]

Thanks for all the work on this so far!
