Adds 2 new AIR instructions:
* dbg_var_ptr
* dbg_var_val
Sema no longer emits dbg_stmt AIR instructions when strip=true.
LLVM backend: fixed lowerPtrToVoid when calling ptrAlignment on
the element type is problematic.
LLVM backend: fixed alloca instructions improperly getting debug
location annotated, causing chaotic debug info behavior.
zig_llvm.cpp: fixed incorrect bindings for a function that should use
unsigned integers for line and column.
A bunch of C test cases regressed because the new dbg_var AIR
instructions caused their operands to be alive, exposing latent bugs.
Mostly it's just a problem that the C backend lowers mutable
and const slices to the same C type, so we need to represent that in the
C backend instead of printing two duplicate typedefs.
* Sema: resolve type fully when emitting an alloc AIR instruction to
avoid tripping assertion for checking struct field alignment.
* LLVM backend: keep a reference to the LLVM target data alive during
lowering so that we can ask LLVM what it thinks the ABI alignment
and size of LLVM types are. We need this in order to lower tuples and
structs so that we can put in extra padding bytes when Zig disagrees
with LLVM about the size or alignment of something.
* LLVM backend: make the LLVM struct type packed that contains the most
aligned union field and the padding. This prevents the struct from
being too big according to LLVM. In the future, we may want to
consider instead emitting unions in a "flat" manner; putting the tag,
most aligned union field, and padding all in the same struct field
space.
* LLVM backend: make structs with 2 or fewer fields return isByRef=false.
This results in more efficient codegen. This required lowering of
bitcast to sometimes store the struct into an alloca, ptrcast, and
then load because LLVM does not allow bitcasting structs.
* enable more passing behavior tests.
The mechanism behind initializing a union's tag is a bit complicated,
depending on whether the union is initialized at runtime,
forced comptime, or implicit comptime.
`coerce_result_ptr` now does not force a block to be a runtime context;
instead of adding runtime instructions directly, it forwards analysis to
the respective functions for initializing optionals and error unions.
`validateUnionInit` now has logic to still emit a runtime
`set_union_tag` instruction even if the union pointer is comptime-known,
for the case of a pointer that is not comptime mutable, such as a
variable or the result of `@intToPtr`.
`validateStructInit` looks for a completely different pattern now; it
now handles the possibility of the corresponding AIR instruction for
the `field_ptr` to be missing or the corresponding `store` to be missing.
See the new comment added to the function for more details. An
equivalent change should probably be made to `validateArrayInit`.
`analyzeOptionalPayloadPtr` and `analyzeErrUnionPayloadPtr` functions now
emit a `optional_payload_ptr_set` or `errunion_payload_ptr_set`
instruction respectively if `initializing` is true and the pointer value
is not comptime-mutable.
`storePtr2` now tries the comptime pointer store before checking if the
element type has one possible value because the comptime pointer store
can have side effects of setting a union tag, setting an optional payload
non-null, or setting an error union to be non-error.
The LLVM backend `lowerParentPtr` function is improved to take into
account the differences in how the LLVM values are lowered depending on
the Zig type. It now handles unions correctly as well as additionally
handling optionals and error unions.
In the LLVM backend, the instructions `optional_payload_ptr_set` and
`errunion_payload_ptr_set` check liveness analysis and only do the side
effects in the case the result of the instruction is unused.
A few wasm and C backend test cases regressed, but they are due to TODOs
in lowering of constants, so this is progress.
Due to the new structure of lowerConstant, we can now simplify the logic in a lot of situations.
- We no longer have to check the `WValue`'s tag to determine how to load/store a value.
- We can now provide simple memcopy's for aggregate types.
- Constants are now memoized, meaning we do no longer lower constants on each callsite.
Introduce `validate_array_init_comptime`, similar to
`validate_struct_init_comptime` introduced in
713d2a9b3883942491b40738245232680877cc66.
`zirValidateArrayInit` is improved to detect comptime array literals and
emit AIR accordingly. This code is very similar to the changes
introduced in that same commit for `zirValidateStructInit`.
The C backend needed some improvements to continue passing the same set
of tests:
* `resolveInst` for arrays now will add a local `static const` with the
array value and so then `elem_val` instructions reference that local.
It memoizes accesses using `value_map`, which is changed to use
`Air.Inst.Ref` as the key rather than `Air.Inst.Index`.
* This required a mechanism for writing to a "header" which is lines
that appear at the beginning of a function body, before everything
else.
* dbg_stmt output comments rather than `#line` directives.
TODO comment reproduced here:
We need to re-evaluate whether to emit these or not. If we naively emit
these directives, the output file will report bogus line numbers because
every newline after the #line directive adds one to the line.
We also don't print the filename yet, so the output is strictly unhelpful.
If we wanted to go this route, we would need to go all the way and not output
newlines until the next dbg_stmt occurs.
Perhaps an additional compilation option is in order?
`Value.elemValue` is improved to support `elem_ptr` values.
The main problem was that the loop body was treated as an expression
that was one of the peer result values of a loop, when in reality the
loop body is noreturn and only the `break` operands are the result
values of loops.
This was solved by introducing an override that prevents rvalue() from
emitting a store to result location instruction for loop bodies.
An orthogonal change also included in this commit is switching
`elem_val` index expressions to using `coerced_ty` and doing the
coercion to `usize` inside `Sema`, resulting in smaller ZIR (since the
cast becomes implied).
I also changed the break operand expression to use `reachableExpr`,
introducing a new compile error for double break.
This makes a few more behavior tests pass for `while` and `for` loops.
* stage1: change the `@typeName` of `@TypeOf(undefined)`,
`@TypeOf(null)`, and `@TypeOf(.foo)` to match stage2.
* move passing behavior tests to the passing-for-stage2 section.
Companion commit to 61a53a587558ff1fe1b0ec98bb424022885edccf.
This commit also moves over a bunch of behavior test cases to the
passing-for-stage2 section.

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.
