This broke build scripts that wanted to refer to `exe_dir` or
`install_path`.
There has also been some pushback and discussion on this breaking
change. I think it should be re-evaluated.
This reverts commit a1a1929cf4ff979bdaba17f858d4ce8647e87a65.
We generally get away with atomic primitives, however a lock is required
around the refresh function since it traverses the Node graph, and we
need to be sure no references to Nodes remain after end() is called.
* Field global_cache_root was added to Builder struct along with
mandatory argument for build_runner.zig. Logic for using the custom
global cache was also added.
* The arguments --cache-dir and --global-cache-dir are no longer passed
directly through to build_runner.zig and are instead only passed through the
mandatory cache_root and global_cache_root arguments.
Let's a void any kind of compilation/LLVM errors for niche targets such
as AVR/MSP430 or ARM v6m. By not exporting any atomic builtin anymore
the user is free to provide their own implementation (that disable the
IRQs) or to provide the --single-threaded switch and forget about this.
The previous clone() definition was written for 32bit PPC targets,
trying to execute it on a PPC64 machine lead to countless crashes.
Use the clone() definition kindly lifted from Musl libc.
Comparisons with absolute epsilons are usually useful when comparing
numbers to zero, for non-zero numbers it's advised to switch to relative
epsilons instead to obtain meaningful results (check [1] for more
details).
The new API introduces approxEqAbs and approxEqRel, where the former
aliases and deprecated the old `approxEq`, allowing the user to pick the
right tool for the job.
The documentation is meant to guide the user in the choice of the
correct alternative.

Unlike glibc and musl, MinGW provides no libssp symbols leading to
countless compile errors if FORTIFY_SOURCE is defined.
Add a (incomplete) implementation of libssp written in Zig so that
linking succeeds.
Closes#6492
As part of this:
* add std.process.cleanExit. closes#6395
- use it in several places
* adjust the alignment of text in `zig build --help` menu
* Cache: support the concept of "unhit" so that we properly keep track
of the cache when we find out using the secondary hash that the cache
"hit" was actually a miss. Use this to fix false negatives of caching
of stage1 build artifacts.
* fix not deleting the symlink hash for stage1 build artifacts causing
false positives.
* implement support for Package arguments in stage1 build artifacts
* update and add missing usage text
* add --override-lib-dir and --enable-cache CLI options
- `--enable-cache` takes the place of `--cache on`
* CLI supports -femit-bin=foo combined with --enable-cache to do an
"update file" operation. --enable-cache without that argument
will build the output into a cache directory and then print the path
to stdout (matching master branch behavior).
* errors surfacing from main() now print "error: Foo" instead of
"error: error.Foo".
`std.builtin.StackTrace` gains a `format` function.
GeneralPurposeAllocator uses `std.log.err` instead of directly printing
to stderr. Some errors are recoverable.
The test runner is modified to fail the test run if any log messages of
"err" or worse severity are encountered.
self-hosted is modified to always print log messages of "err" severity
or worse even if they have not been explicitly enabled.
This makes GeneralPurposeAllocator available on the freestanding target.
