reads on eg. connected TCP sockets can fail with ETIMEDOUT, and ENOTCONN
happens eg. if you try to read a TCP socket that has not been connected
yet.
interestingly read() was already handling CONNRESET & TIMEDOUT, but
readv(), pread(), and preadv() were somewhat inconsistent.
A parameter like this is not always optional, even if that is
usually implied. SPIR-V tools fail to parse a module with an
OpLoopMerge instruction where the loop control parameter is
left out.
* move std.atomic.Atomic to std.atomic.Value
* fix incorrect argument order passed to testing.expectEqual
* make the functions be a thin wrapper over the atomic builtins and
stick to the naming conventions.
* remove pointless functions loadUnchecked and storeUnchecked. Instead,
name the field `raw` instead of `value` (which is redundant with the
type name).
* simplify the tests by not passing every possible combination. Many
cases were iterating over every possible combinations but then not
even using the for loop element value!
* remove the redundant compile errors which are already implemented by
the language itself.
* remove dead x86 inline assembly. this should be implemented in the
language if at all.
This reverts commit da94227f783ec3c92859c4713b80a668f1183f96, reversing
changes made to 8f943b3d33432a26b7e242c1181e4220ed400501.
I was against this change originally, but decided to approve it to keep
an open mind. After a year of trying it in practice, I firmly believe
that the previous way of doing it was better.
In this case it improved maintainability because magic number `4` is no
longer repeated 3 times, and there is no longer a redundant branch in
the loop.
In general, I don't like the idea of std.meta.trait, and so I am
providing some guidance by deleting the entire namespace from the
standard library and compiler codebase.
My main criticism is that it's overcomplicated machinery that bloats
compile times and is ultimately unnecessary given the existence of Zig's
strong type system and reference traces.
Users who want this can create a third party package that provides this
functionality.
closes#18051
Instead of `zig init-lib` and `zig init-exe`, now there is only
`zig init`, which initializes any of the template files that do not
already exist, and makes a package that contains both an executable and
a static library. The idea is that the user can delete whatever they
don't want. In fact, I think even more things should be added to the
build.zig template.
When a local variable is never used as an lvalue, we can determine that
`const` would be sufficient for this variable, so emit an error in this
case. More sophisticated checking is unfortunately not possible with
Zig's current analysis model, since whether an lvalue is actually
mutated depends on semantic analysis, in which some code paths may not
be analyzed, so attempting to determine this would result in false
positive compile errors.
It's worth noting that an unfortunate consequence of this is that any
field call `a.b()` will allow `a` to be `var`, even if `b` does not take
a pointer as its first parameter - this is again a necessary compromise
because the parameter type is not known until semantic analysis.
Also update `translate-c` to not trigger these errors. This is done by
replacing the `_ = @TypeOf(x)` emitted with `_ = &x` - the reference
there means that the local is permitted to be `var`. A similar strategy
will be used to prevent compile errors in the behavior tests, where we
sometimes want to force a value to be runtime-known.
