The following patch attempts to implement the C++26 P3378R2 - constexpr
exception types paper.
This is quite complicated, because most of these classes which should
be constexpr-ized use solely or mostly out of line definitions in
libstdc++, both for historical, code size and dual ABI reasons, so that
one can throw these as exceptions between TUs with old vs. new (or vice
versa) ABIs.
For this reason, logic_error/runtime_error and classes derived from it
have the old ABI std::string object inside of them and the exported
APIs from libstdc++.so.6 ensure the right thing.
Now, because new invoked during constant evaluation needs to be deleted
during the same constant evaluation and can't leak into the constant
expressions, I think we don't have to use COW strings under the hood
(which aren't constexpr I guess because of reference counting/COW) and
we can use something else, the patch uses heap allocated std::string
object (where __cow_constexpr_string class has just a pointer to that).
As I think we still want to hide the ugly details if !consteval in the
library, the patch exports 8 __cow_string class symbols (6 existing which
were previously just not exported and 2 new ones) and if !consteval
calls those through extern "C" _Zmangled_name symbols. The functions
are always_inline.
And then logic_error etc. have for C++26 (precisely for
__cpp_lib_constexpr_exceptions >= 202502L) constexpr definitions of
cdtors/methods. This results in slightly larger code (a few insns at most)
at runtime for C++26, e.g. instead of calling say some logic error
cdtor/method with 2 arguments it calls some __cow_string one with 2
arguments but + 8 bytes pointer additions on both.
The patch also removes the __throw_format_error forward declaration
which apparently wasn't needed for anything as all __throw_format_error
users were either in <format> or included <format> before the uses,
reverts the
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/libstdc++/2025-July/062598.html
patch and makes sure __throw_* functions (only those for exception types
which the P3378R2 or P3068R5 papers made constexpr usable and there are
actually constexpr/consteval uses of those) are constexpr for C++26
constexpr exceptions.
The patch does that by splitting the bits/functexcept.h header:
1) bits/functexcept.h stays for the __throw_* functions which are (at
least for now) never constexpr (the <ios>, <system_error>, <future>
and <functional> std::exception derived classes) or are never used
or never used in constexpr/consteval contexts (<exception>, <typeinfo>
std::exception derived classes and std::range_error).
2) bits/new_{throw,except}.h for __throw_bad_alloc/__throw_bad_array_new_length
and std::bad_alloc/std::bad_array_new_length (where <new> includes
<bits/new_except.h> and <bits/new_throw.h> as well for the C++26 constexpr
exceptions case)
3) for the most complicated <stdexcept> stuff, one header
addition to bits/stdexcept.h one header for the __throw_logic_error etc.
forward declarations, one header for the __throw_logic_error etc.
definitions and one header without header guards which will
depending on __glibcxx_exc_in_string include one or the other because
<string> vs. <string_view> vs. <stdexcept> have heavy interdependencies
