The compiler actually doesn't need any functional changes for this: Sema
does reification based on the tag indices of `std.builtin.Type` already!
So, no zig1.wasm update is necessary.
This change is necessary to disallow name clashes between fields and
decls on a type, which is a prerequisite of #9938.
Implements the accepted proposal to introduce `@branchHint`. This
builtin is permitted as the first statement of a block if that block is
the direct body of any of the following:
* a function (*not* a `test`)
* either branch of an `if`
* the RHS of a `catch` or `orelse`
* a `switch` prong
* an `or` or `and` expression
It lowers to the ZIR instruction `extended(branch_hint(...))`. When Sema
encounters this instruction, it sets `sema.branch_hint` appropriately,
and `zirCondBr` etc are expected to reset this value as necessary. The
state is on `Sema` rather than `Block` to make it automatically
propagate up non-conditional blocks without special handling. If
`@panic` is reached, the branch hint is set to `.cold` if none was
already set; similarly, error branches get a hint of `.unlikely` if no
hint is explicitly provided. If a condition is comptime-known, `cold`
hints from the taken branch are allowed to propagate up, but other hints
are discarded. This is because a `likely`/`unlikely` hint just indicates
the direction this branch is likely to go, which is redundant
information when the branch is known at comptime; but `cold` hints
indicate that control flow is unlikely to ever reach this branch,
meaning if the branch is always taken from its parent, then the parent
is also unlikely to ever be reached.
This branch information is stored in AIR `cond_br` and `switch_br`. In
addition, `try` and `try_ptr` instructions have variants `try_cold` and
`try_ptr_cold` which indicate that the error case is cold (rather than
just unlikely); this is reachable through e.g. `errdefer unreachable` or
`errdefer @panic("")`.
A new API `unwrapSwitch` is introduced to `Air` to make it more
convenient to access `switch_br` instructions. In time, I plan to update
all AIR instructions to be accessed via an `unwrap` method which returns
a convenient tagged union a la `InternPool.indexToKey`.
The LLVM backend lowers branch hints for conditional branches and
switches as follows:
* If any branch is marked `unpredictable`, the instruction is marked
`!unpredictable`.
* Any branch which is marked as `cold` gets a
`llvm.assume(i1 true) [ "cold"() ]` call to mark the code path cold.
* If any branch is marked `likely` or `unlikely`, branch weight metadata
is attached with `!prof`. Likely branches get a weight of 2000, and
unlikely branches a weight of 1. In `switch` statements, un-annotated
branches get a weight of 1000 as a "middle ground" hint, since there
could be likely *and* unlikely *and* un-annotated branches.
For functions, a `cold` hint corresponds to the `cold` function
attribute, and other hints are currently ignored -- as far as I can tell
LLVM doesn't really have a way to lower them. (Ideally, we would want
the branch hint given in the function to propagate to call sites.)
The compiler and standard library do not yet use this new builtin.
Resolves: #21148
Implements the base that should usually work that is
- Check LD_LIBRARY_PATH if the binary is no setuid setgid binary
- Check /lib, /usr/lib, in that order
The missing parts are:
- DT_RPATH and DT_RUNPATH handling from the calling executable
- Reading /etc/ld.so.cache
For more details check man page of dlopen(3)
This reverts commit cb5a6be41ae0efc30d0b59a41b0763db966e5bf4.
I deeply apologize for the churn.
This change is problematic given that we do not have ranged integers
(yet? see #3806).
In the meantime, this type needs to be `usize`, matching the length and
index types for all std lib data structures.
Users who want to save memory should not use heap-allocated BoundedArray
values, since it is inherently memory-inefficient. Use a different
memory layout instead.
If #3806 is accepted and implemented, the length value can become an
integer with the appropriate range, without the footgun. If that
proposal is not accepted, len type will remain a usize.
Ensures that all runned command are visible when using `--verbose` flag,
for example `pkg-config` from Step.Compile or `git describe` from build.zig.

These are fundamentally incapable of producing accurate information for reasons
I've laid out in #20771. Since our only use of these functions is to check that
object files have the correct machine type, and since #21020 made
`std.Target.to{Coff,Elf}Machine()` more accurate, just switch these checks over
to that and compare the machine type tags instead.
Closes#20771.
* reduce iteration cost by not tracking unused entries
* avoid emitting unused abbrevs to `.debug_abbrev`
* get the compiler executable passing `llvm-dwarfdump --verify`
* make it possible to skip `.debug_line` padding much more quickly
* Indices of referenced captures
* Line and column of `@src()`
The second point aligns with a reversal of the "incremental compilation"
section of https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/2029#issuecomment-645793168.
This reversal was already done as #17688 (46a6d50), with the idea to
push incremental compilation down the line. My proposal is to keep it as
comptime-known, and simply re-analyze uses of `@src()` whenever their
line/column change.
I think this decision is reasonable for a few reasons:
* The Zig compiler is quite fast. Occasionally re-analyzing a few
functions containing `@src()` calls is perfectly acceptable and won't
noticably impact update times.
* The system described by Andrew in #2029 is currently vaporware.
* The system described by Andrew in #2029 is non-trivial to implement.
In particular, it requires some way to have backends update a single
global in certain cases, without re-doing semantic analysis. There is
no other part of incremental compilation which requires this.
* Having `@src().line` be comptime-known is useful. For instance, #17688
was justified by broken Tracy integration because the source line
couldn't be comptime-known.
In a `memoized_call`, store how many backwards braches the call
performs. Add this to `sema.branch_count` when using a memoized call. If
this exceeds the quota, perform a non-memoized call to get a correct
"exceeded X backwards branches" error.
Also, do not memoize calls which do `@setEvalBranchQuota` or similar, as
this affects global state which must apply to the caller.
Change some eval branch quotas so that the compiler itself still builds correctly.
This commit manually changes a file in Aro which is automatically
generated. The sources which generate the file are not in this repo.
Upstream Aro should make the suitable changes on their end before the
next sync of Aro sources into the Zig repo.
Closes#21132
According to the XDG Base Directory specification
(https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/#variables),
empty values for these environment variables should be treated the same
as if they are unset. Specifically, for the instances changed in this
commit,
> $XDG_DATA_HOME defines the base directory relative to which
> user-specific data files should be stored. If $XDG_DATA_HOME is either
> not set **or empty**, a default equal to $HOME/.local/share should be
> used.
and
> $XDG_CACHE_HOME defines the base directory relative to which
> user-specific non-essential data files should be stored. If
> $XDG_CACHE_HOME is either not set **or empty**, a default equal to
> $HOME/.cache should be used.
(emphasis mine)
In addition to the case mentioned in the linked issue, all other uses of
XDG environment variables were corrected.
* std.c.darwin: add missing CPUFAMILY fields
* std.zig.system.detectNativeCpuAndFeatures: add missing darwin fields
* add comment so the prong isnt lost and easily discoverable during next llvm upgrade
A compilation build step for which the binary is not required could not
be compiled previously. There were 2 issues that caused this:
- The compiler communicated only the results of the emitted binary and
did not properly communicate the result if the binary was not emitted.
This is fixed by communicating the final hash of the artifact path (the
hash of the corresponding /o/<hash> directory) and communicating this
instead of the entire path. This changes the zig build --listen protocol
to communicate hashes instead of paths, and emit_bin_path is accordingly
renamed to emit_digest.
- There was an error related to the default llvm object path when
CacheUse.Whole was selected. I'm not really sure why this didn't manifest
when the binary is also emitted.
This was fixed by improving the path handling related to flush() and
emitLlvmObject().
In general, this commit also improves some of the path handling throughout
the compiler and standard library.
This replaces the constant `Zir.Inst.Ref` tags (and the analagous tags
in `Air.Inst.Ref`, `InternPool.Index`) referring to types in
`std.builtin` with a ZIR instruction `extended(builtin_type(...))` which
instructs Sema to fetch such a type, effectively as if it were a
shorthand for the ZIR for `@import("std").builtin.xyz`.
Previously, this was achieved through constant tags in `Ref`. The
analagous `InternPool` indices began as `simple_type` values, and were
later rewritten to the correct type information. This system was kind of
brittle, and more importantly, isn't compatible with incremental
compilation of std, since incremental compilation relies on the ability
to recreate types at different indices when they change. Replacing the
old system with this instruction slightly increases the size of ZIR, but
it simplifies logic and allows incremental compilation to work correctly
on the standard library.
This shouldn't have a significant impact on ZIR size or compiler
performance, but I will take measurements in the PR to confirm this.
