ZIR instructions updated: atomic_load, atomic_rmw, atomic_store, cmpxchg
These no longer construct a pointer type as the result location. This
solves a TODO that was preventing the pointer from possibly being
volatile, as well as properly handling allowzero and addrspace.
It also allows the pointer to be over-aligned, which may be needed
depending on the target. As a consequence, the element type needs to be
communicated in the ZIR. This is done by strategically making one of the
operands be ResultLoc.ty instead of ResultLoc.coerced_ty if possible, or
otherwise explicitly adding elem_type into the ZIR encoding, such as in
the case of atomic_load.
The pointer type of atomic operations is now checked in Sema by coercing
it to an expected pointer type, that maybe over-aligned according to
target requirements.
Together with the previous commit, Zig now has smaller alignment for
large integers, depending on the target, and yet still has type safety
for atomic operations that specially require higher alignment.
Sema avoids adding map entries for certain instructions such as
`set_eval_branch_quota` and `atomic_store`. This means that result
location semantics in AstGen must not emit any instructions that attempt
to use the result of any of these instructions.
This commit makes AstGen replace such instructions with
`Zir.Inst.Ref.void_value` if their result value ends up being
referenced.
This fixes a compiler crash when running std lib atomic tests.
Instead use the standarized option for communicating the
zig compiler backend at comptime, which is `zig_backend`. This was
introduced in commit 1c24ef0d0b09a12a1fe98056f2fc04de78a82df3.
* introduce float_to_int and int_to_float AIR instructionts and
implement for the LLVM backend and C backend.
* Sema: implement `zirIntToFloat`.
* Sema: implement `@atomicRmw` comptime evaluation
- introduce `storePtrVal` for when one needs to store a Value to a
pointer which is a Value, and assert it happens at comptime.
* Value: introduce new functionality:
- intToFloat
- numberAddWrap
- numberSubWrap
- numberMax
- numberMin
- bitwiseAnd
- bitwiseNand (not implemented yet)
- bitwiseOr
- bitwiseXor
* Sema: hook up `zirBitwise` to the new Value bitwise implementations
* Type: rename `isFloat` to `isRuntimeFloat` because it returns `false`
for `comptime_float`.
* test runner is improved to respect `error.SkipZigTest`
* start code is improved to `@setAlignStack(16)` before calling main()
* the newly passing behavior test has a workaround for the fact that
stage2 cannot yet call `std.Target.x86.featureSetHas()` at comptime.
This is blocking on comptime closures. The workaround is that there
is a new decl `@import("builtin").stage2_x86_cx16` which is a `bool`.
* Implement `@setAlignStack`. This language feature should be re-evaluated
at some point - I'll file an issue for it.
* LLVM backend: apply/remove the cold attribute and noinline attribute
where appropriate.
* LLVM backend: loads and stores are properly annotated with alignment
and volatile attributes.
* LLVM backend: allocas are properly annotated with alignment.
* Type: fix integers reporting wrong alignment for 256-bit integers and
beyond. Once you get to 16 byte aligned, there is no further
alignment for larger integers.
* langref: add some more "see also" links for atomics
* Add the following AIR instructions
- atomic_load
- atomic_store_unordered
- atomic_store_monotonic
- atomic_store_release
- atomic_store_seq_cst
- atomic_rmw
* Implement those AIR instructions in LLVM and C backends.
* AstGen: make the `ty` result locations for `@atomicRmw`, `@atomicLoad`,
and `@atomicStore` be `coerced_ty` to avoid unnecessary ZIR
instructions when Sema will be doing the coercions redundantly.
* Sema for `@atomicLoad` and `@atomicRmw` is done, however Sema for
`@atomicStore` is not yet implemented.
- comptime eval for `@atomicRmw` is not yet implemented.
* Sema: flesh out `coerceInMemoryAllowed` a little bit more. It can now
handle pointers.
* Implement Sema for `@cmpxchgWeak` and `@cmpxchgStrong`. Both runtime
and comptime codepaths are implement.
* Implement Codegen for LLVM backend and C backend.
* Add LazySrcLoc.node_offset_builtin_call_argX 3...5
* Sema: rework comptime control flow.
- `error.ComptimeReturn` is used to signal that a comptime function
call has returned a result (stored in the Inlining struct).
`analyzeCall` notices this and handles the result.
- The ZIR instructions `break_inline`, `block_inline`,
`condbr_inline` are now redundant and can be deleted. `break`,
`block`, and `condbr` function equivalently inside a comptime scope.
- The ZIR instructions `loop` and `repeat` also are modified to
directly perform comptime control flow inside a comptime scope,
skipping an unnecessary mechanism for analysis of runtime code.
This makes Zig perform closer to an interpreter when evaluating
comptime code.
* Sema: zirRetErrValue looks at Sema.ret_fn_ty rather than sema.func
for adding to the inferred error set. This fixes a bug for
inlined/comptime function calls.
* Implement ZIR printing for cmpxchg.
* stage1: make cmpxchg respect --single-threaded
- Our LLVM C++ API wrapper failed to expose this boolean flag before.
* Fix AIR printing for struct fields showing incorrect liveness data.
Bitcast the pointer and operands to integer types having the same size,
working around LLVM inability to lower a LL/SC operation when the
operands have floating-point types (and are reasonably sized).

Master branch added `try` to a bunch of testing function calls, and some
lines also had changed how to refer to the native architecture and other
`@import("builtin")` stuff.
