Assertion failed: Cannot set `break_last_token` and have trailing token

[jruderman]

Found with fuzz-rustc plus a new AST-guided mutator

Code

fn main() {
    x::<#[a]y::<z>>
}

What's going on

• The attribute #[a] applies to y::<z>
• The > was initially lexed as part of a >> token
• This seems to be exactly the case described by the comment above the assertion

@Aaron1011 Do you have any suggestion for this case?

The code path is going like this:

Parser eat the first one of '>' at here and set break_last_token: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/dbaf3e67aa156db0031a24383f3cc371a10da13b/compiler/rustc_parse/src/parser/mod.rs#L706

fall pass at here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/53728ff751df4c271d4ea565b6871057a3504fc5/compiler/rustc_parse/src/parser/expr.rs#L3087

So this assertion is failed: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/c0983a9aac889d16722a12602ac678051e62c3fb/compiler/rustc_parse/src/parser/attr_wrapper.rs#L295

The result is: trailing == TrailingToken::MaybeComma and break_last_token is true.

Seems the assertion missed this scenario, do we need to add a TrailingToken::Gt ?

@chenyukang The assertion I wrote is overly conservative - it really just needs to check that we don't simultaneously break a token and 'really' capture a trailing token. Specifically, we only need to panic if we actually incremented end_pos in the match block.

I think the simplest fix would be to add a captured_trailing variable, which gets set to true in the parts of the match block that increment end_pos. The assertion can then be changed to assert!(!captured_trailing, "Cannot set break_last_token and have trailing token")
