* Eliminate all uses of `std.debug.print` in make() functions, instead
properly using the step failure reporting mechanism.
* Introduce the concept of skipped build steps. These do not cause the
build to fail, and they do allow their dependants to run.
* RunStep gains a new flag, `skip_foreign_checks` which causes the
RunStep to be skipped if stdio mode is `check` and the binary cannot
be executed due to it being a foreign executable.
- RunStep is improved to automatically use known interpreters to
execute binaries if possible (integrating with flags such as
-fqemu and -fwasmtime). It only does this after attempting a native
execution and receiving a "exec file format" error.
- Update RunStep to use an ArrayList for the checks rather than this
ad-hoc reallocation/copying mechanism.
- `expectStdOutEqual` now also implicitly adds an exit_code==0 check
if there is not already an expected termination. This matches
previously expected behavior from older API and can be overridden by
directly setting the checks array.
* Add `dest_sub_path` to `InstallArtifactStep` which allows choosing an
arbitrary subdirectory relative to the prefix, as well as overriding
the basename.
- Delete the custom InstallWithRename step that I found deep in the
test/ directory.
* WriteFileStep will now update its step display name after the first
file is added.
* Add missing stdout checks to various standalone test case build
scripts.
* Step.init() now takes an options struct
* Step.init() now captures a small stack trace and stores it in the
Step so that it can be accessed when printing user-friendly debugging
information, including the lines of code that created the step in
question.
Changes only pertain arm64 as for x86_64 turns out we are
missing one additional feature which is synthesising unwind info
from only eh frame records, or at least this is what it looks like
when I analysed the output of Apple's ld.
When outputting the names section, we should output the actual symbol
name rather than the import name. This makes sure that symbols with
an explicit name set have the correct name but retain the import name
too.
We also now correctly mangle the name of an extern function with an
explicit library name. This ensures that functions that have a
different library name, but the same import/function name, can be
resolved correctly with other modules and don't resolve to the
same symbol.
Adds a linker test case for each possible export case. This means
one where no exports are done (i.e. no flags set), when the -dynamic
flag is set, and finally when --export=<value> flag(s) are set.
Adds a test for inferring features based on a different object file.
Also provides a test case where cpu features are explicitly set on
a library where the end result will output said target features.
* Sema: implement linksection on functions
* Implement function linksection in Sema.
* Don't clobber function linksection/align/addrspace in Sema.
* Fix copy-paste typo in tests.
* Add a bunch of missing test_step.dependOn.
* Fix checkInSymtab match.
Closes#12546
When testing the Wasm linker for the producers section
we do not ever want to strip the binary as this will remove
the producers section in release-small.
This fixes the CI errors by d086b371f0e21e5029e1b0d05838b87502eb63e6
This also turns off non-debug modes for the bss linker tests for
Wasm. This is done as it's not required to guarantee to zero out
the bss section for non-debug modes.
2c3d87b168bf522f538e78325fdae71c320e6e20 introduced a new test that
passes on macOS but fails on other operating systems. This commit makes
it only run on macOS.
Move common tests by target file format (Wasm, MachO) into helper
functions in `link.zig`, and sort alphabetically within for easier
tracking versus file organization on disk.
