This is a misfeature that we inherited from LLVM:
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D61259
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D61939
(`aarch64_32` and `arm64_32` are equivalent.)
I truly have no idea why this triple passed review in LLVM. It is, to date, the
*only* tag in the architecture component that is not, in fact, an architecture.
In reality, it is just an ILP32 ABI for AArch64 (*not* AArch32).
The triples that use `aarch64_32` look like `aarch64_32-apple-watchos`. Yes,
that triple is exactly what you think; it has no ABI component. They really,
seriously did this.
Since only Apple could come up with silliness like this, it should come as no
surprise that no one else uses `aarch64_32`. Later on, a GNU ILP32 ABI for
AArch64 was developed, and support was added to LLVM:
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D94143
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D104931
Here, sanity seems to have prevailed, and a triple using this ABI looks like
`aarch64-linux-gnu_ilp32` as you would expect.
As can be seen from the diffs in this commit, there was plenty of confusion
throughout the Zig codebase about what exactly `aarch64_32` was. So let's just
remove it. In its place, we'll use `aarch64-watchos-ilp32`,
`aarch64-linux-gnuilp32`, and so on. We'll then translate these appropriately
when talking to LLVM. Hence, this commit adds the `ilp32` ABI tag (we already
have `gnuilp32`).
Remove --debug-incremental
This flag is also added to the build system. Importantly, this tells
Compile step whether or not to keep the compiler running between
rebuilds. It defaults off because it is currently crashing
zirUpdateRefs.
This allows the mutate mutex to only be locked during actual grows,
which are rare. For the lists that didn't previously have a mutex, this
change has little effect since grows are rare and there is zero
contention on a mutex that is only ever locked by one thread. This
change allows `extra` to be mutated without racing with a grow.
The purpose of using path digest was to reference a file in a
serializable manner. Now that there is a stable index associated with
files, it is a superior way to accomplish that goal, since removes one
layer of indirection, and makes TrackedInst 8 bytes instead of 20.
The saved Zig Compiler State file for "hello world" goes from 1.3M to
1.2M with this change.
Primarily, this commit removes 2 fields from File, relying on the data
being stored in the `files` field, with the key as the path digest, and
the value as the struct decl corresponding to the File. This table is
serialized into the compiler state that survives between incremental
updates.
Meanwhile, the File struct remains ephemeral data that can be
reconstructed the first time it is needed by the compiler process, as
well as operated on by independent worker threads.
A key outcome of this commit is that there is now a stable index that
can be used to refer to a File. This will be needed when serializing
error messages to survive incremental compilation updates.
I'm so sorry.
This commit was just meant to be making all types fully resolve by
queueing resolution at the moment of their creation. Unfortunately, a
lot of dominoes ended up falling. Here's what happened:
* I added a work queue job to fully resolve a type.
* I realised that from here we could eliminate `Sema.types_to_resolve`
if we made function codegen a separate job. This is desirable for
simplicity of both spec and implementation.
* This led to a new AIR traversal to detect whether any required type is
unresolved. If a type in the AIR failed to resolve, then we can't run
codegen.
* Because full type resolution now occurs by the work queue job, a bug
was exposed whereby error messages for type resolution were associated
with the wrong `Decl`, resulting in duplicate error messages when the
type was also resolved "by" its owner `Decl` (which really *all*
resolution should be done on).
* A correct fix for this requires using a different `Sema` when
performing type resolution: we need a `Sema` owned by the type. Also
note that this fix is necessary for incremental compilation.
* This means a whole bunch of functions no longer need to take `Sema`s.
* First-order effects: `resolveTypeFields`, `resolveTypeLayout`, etc
* Second-order effects: `Type.abiAlignmentAdvanced`, `Value.orderAgainstZeroAdvanced`, etc
The end result of this is, in short, a more correct compiler and a
simpler language specification. This regressed a few error notes in the
test cases, but nothing that seems worth blocking this change.
Oh, also, I ripped out the old code in `test/src/Cases.zig` which
introduced a dependency on `Compilation`. This dependency was
problematic at best, and this code has been unused for a while. When we
re-enable incremental test cases, we must rewrite their executor to use
the compiler server protocol.
This change modifies `Zcu.ErrorMsg` to store a `Zcu.LazySrcLoc` rather
than a `Zcu.SrcLoc`. Everything else is dominoes.
The reason for this change is incremental compilation. If a failed
`AnalUnit` is up-to-date on an update, we want to re-use the old error
messages. However, the file containing the error location may have been
modified, and `SrcLoc` cannot survive such a modification. `LazySrcLoc`
is designed to be correct across incremental updates. Therefore, we
defer source location resolution until `Compilation` gathers the compile
errors into the `ErrorBundle`.
Previously, `reference_table` mapped from a `Decl` being referenced to
the `Decl` that performed the reference. This is convenient for
constructing error messages, but problematic for incremental
compilation. This is because on an incremental update, we want to
efficiently remove all references triggered by an `AnalUnit` which is
being re-analyzed.
For this reason, `reference_table` now maps the other way: from the
`AnalUnit` *performing* the reference, to the `AnalUnit` whose analysis
was triggered. As a general rule, any call to any of the following
functions should be preceded by a call to `Sema.addReferenceEntry`:
* `Zcu.ensureDeclAnalyzed`
* `Sema.ensureDeclAnalyzed`
* `Zcu.ensureFuncBodyAnalyzed`
* `Zcu.ensureFuncBodyAnalysisQueued`
This is not just important for error messages, but also more
fundamentally for incremental compilation. When an incremental update
occurs, we must determine whether any `AnalUnit` has become
unreferenced: in this case, we should ignore its associated error
messages, and perhaps even remove it from the binary. For this reason,
we no longer store only one reference to every `AnalUnit`, but every
reference. At the end of an update, `Zcu.resolveReferences` will
construct the reverse mapping, and as such identify which `AnalUnit`s
are still referenced. The current implementation doesn't quite do what
we need for incremental compilation here, but the framework is in place.
Note that `Zcu.resolveReferences` does constitute a non-trivial amount
of work on every incremental update. However, for incremental
compilation, this work -- which will effectively be a graph traversal
over all `AnalUnit` references -- seems strictly necessary. At the
moment, this work is only done if the `Zcu` has any errors, when
collecting them into the final `ErrorBundle`.
An unsolved problem here is how to represent inline function calls in
the reference trace. If `foo` performs an inline call to `bar` which
references `qux`, then ideally, `bar` would be shown on the reference
trace between `foo` and `qux`, but this is not currently the case. The
solution here is probably for `Zcu.Reference` to store information about
the source locations of active inline calls betweeen the referencer and
its reference.
This change seeks to more appropriately model the way semantic analysis
works by drawing a more clear line between errors emitted by analyzing a
`Decl` (in future a `Cau`) and errors emitted by analyzing a runtime
function.
This does change a few compile errors surrounding compile logs by adding
more "also here" notes. The new notes are more technically correct, but
perhaps not so helpful. They're not doing enough harm for me to put
extensive thought into this for now.
This commit reworks our representation of exported Decls and values in
Zcu to be memory-optimized and trivially serialized.
All exports are now stored in the `all_exports` array on `Zcu`. An
`AnalUnit` which performs an export (either through an `export`
annotation or by containing an analyzed `@export`) gains an entry into
`single_exports` if it performs only one export, or `multi_exports` if
it performs multiple.
We no longer store a persistent mapping from a `Decl`/value to all
exports of that entity; this state is not necessary for the majority of
the pipeline. Instead, we construct it in `Zcu.processExports`, just
before flush. This does not affect the algorithmic complexity of
`processExports`, since this function already iterates all exports in
the `Zcu`.
The elimination of `decl_exports` and `value_exports` led to a few
non-trivial backend changes. The LLVM backend has been wrangled into a
more reasonable state in general regarding exports and externs. The C
backend is currently disabled in this commit, because its support for
`export` was quite broken, and that was exposed by this work -- I'm
hoping @jacobly0 will be able to pick this up!
This is essentially just a rename. I also changed the representation of
`AnalSubject` to use a `packed struct` rather than a non-exhaustive
enum, but that change is relatively trivial.
This patch is a pure rename plus only changing the file path in
`@import` sites, so it is expected to not create version control
conflicts, even when rebasing.
LLVM fails to notice that in release builds, `logFn` ignores its
arguments, so their computation can be elided. So, LLVM fails to elide
this hashmap lookup. Its cost isn't too significant, but doing it in the
hottest loop in Sema adds up!
Technically, we could do the lookup a single time, before the loop, but
it was cleanest (and a little faster) to just disable this log call at
comptime when debug logging is disabled.
Since we track `reify` instructions across incremental updates, it is
acceptable to treat it as the baseline for a relative source location.
This turns out to be a good idea, since it makes it easy to define the
source location for a reified type.
