The "Zig Test" section of the language reference has been moved between the
current "Hello World" section and the "Comments" section. This was done to
introduce the Zig test syntax before it is used in later sections.
The description of the Zig test feature has NOT been updated in this commit.
Closes#5837
* less branching by passing parameters in the main op code switch.
* properly pass the target when asking the type system for int info.
* handle u8, i16, etc when it is represented using
int_unsigned/int_signed tag.
* compile error instead of assertion failure for unimplemented cases
(greater than 64 bits integer).
* control flow cleanups
* zig.h: expand macros into inline functions
* reduce the complexity of the test case by making it one test case
that calls multiple functions. Also fix the problem of c_int max
value mismatch between host and target.
* Inferred error sets are stored in the return Type of the function,
owned by the Module.Fn. So it cleans up that memory in deinit().
* Sema: update the inferred error set in zirRetErrValue
- Update relevant code in wrapErrorUnion
* C backend: improve some some instructions to take advantage of
liveness analysis to avoid being emitted when unused.
* C backend: when an error union has a payload type with no runtime
bits, emit the error union as the same type as the error set.
AstGen had the then-else logic backwards for if expressions
on error unions. This commit fixes it.
Turns out AstGen only really needs `is_non_null` and `is_non_err`,
and does not need the `is_null` or `is_err` variants. So I removed the
`is_null{,_ptr}` and `is_err{,_ptr}` ZIR instructions (-4) and
added `is_non_err`, `is_non_err_ptr` ZIR instructions (+2) for
a total of (-2) ZIR instructions, giving us a tiny bit more headroom
within the 256 tag limit. This required swapping the order of
then/else blocks in a handful of cases, but ultimately means the
ZIR will be in the same as source order, which is convenient
when debugging.
AIR code on the other hand, gains the `is_non_err` and `is_non_err_ptr`
instructions.
Sema: fix logic in zirErrUnionCode and zirErrUnionCodePtr returning the
wrong result type.
* implement enough of ret_err_value to pass wasm tests
* only do the proper `@panic` implementation for the backends which
support it, which is currently only the C backend. The other backends
will see `@breakpoint(); unreachable;` same as before.
- I plan to do AIR memory layout reworking as a prerequisite to
fixing other backends, because that will help me put all the
constants up front, which will allow the codegen to lower to memory
without jumps.
* `@panic` is implemented using anon decls for the message. Makes it
easier on the backends. Might want to look into re-using decls for
this in the future.
* implement DWARF .debug_info for pointer-like optionals.
* ZIR: add two instructions:
- ret_err_value_code
- ret_err_value
* AstGen: add countDefers and utilize it to emit more efficient ZIR for
return expressions in the presence of defers.
* AstGen: implement |err| payloads for `errdefer` syntax.
- There is not an "unused capture" error for it yet.
* AstGen: `return error.Foo` syntax gets a hot path in return
expressions, using the new ZIR instructions. This also is part of
implementing inferred error sets, since we need to tell Sema to add
an error value to the inferred error set before it gets coerced.
* Sema: implement `@setCold`.
- Implement `@setCold` support for C backend.
* `@panic` and regular safety panics such as `unreachable` now properly
invoke `std.builtin.panic`.
* C backend: improve pointer and function value rendering.
* C linker: fix redundant typedefs.
* Add Type.error_set_inferred.
* Fix Value.format for enum_literal, enum_field_index, bytes.
* Remove the C backend test that checks for identical text
I measured a 14% reduction in Total ZIR Bytes from master branch
for std/os.zig.
Hashing, equality checking, and expanding lazy values were not
inspecting the is_comptime field of structs, causing incorrect behavior
for tuples. When looking at a comptime value of a struct, if the
is_comptime field is true, the value must be learned from the type
rather than the value.
When putting ZigValues into a hash map. The hash of a lazy value
and a fully resolved value must equal, and so we must resolve
the lazy values prior. The hash function asserts that none of
the values are lazy.
This commit intentions to have no functional changes. The only purpose
is to delete the struct IrInst, which is the common base struct that
both IrInstSrc (ZIR) and IrInstGen (AIR) instructions embed.
This untangles stage1 ZIR and AIR memory layout, paving the way for a
following commit to reduce memory usage.
It now displays the byte with proper printability handling. This makes
the relevant compile error test case no longer a regression in quality
from stage1 to stage2.
