* `@clz`, `@ctz`, `@popCount`, `@bswap`, `@bitreverse` now
have a type parameter
* rename @bitreverse to @bitReverse
* rename @bswap to @byteSwap
Closes#2119Closes#2120
* fix crash when doing field access of slice types. closes#2486
* remove the deprecated Child property from slice types
* add -Dskip-non-native build option to build script
stage1 translate-c actually has this wrong. When exporting a function,
it's ok to use empty parameters. But for prototypes, "no prototype"
means that it has to be emitted as a function that accepts anything,
e.g. extern fn foo(...) void;
See #1964
Avoid producing Zig code that doesn't compile due to mismatched
alignments between pointers.
Always emit a @alignOf instead of hardcoding the alignment value
returned by LLVM for portability sake of the generated code.
The code creates temporary ConstExprValue with global_refs set to
nullptr and that's carried over to the final value. Doing so prevents
the deduplication mechanism to work correctly, causing all sorts of
runtime crashes.
Fixes#1636Fixes#1608 (Even though it was already fixed by #1991)
This defines `@sizeOf` to be the runtime size of a type, which means
that it is zero for types such as comptime_int, type, and (enum
literal).
See #2209
const_ptr_pointee_unchecked did not take into account that if the
pointer is zero sized, then const_val->data.x_ptr.special would be
ConstPtrSpecialInvalid. This commit fixes this by also checking
that the child type of the pointer only have one possible value
and just returns that value.
This fixes comes thanks to Rich Felker from the musl libc project,
who gave me this crucial information:
"to satisfy the abi, your init code has to write the same value
to that memory location as the value passed to the [arch_prctl]
syscall"
This commit also changes the rules for when to build statically
by default. When building objects and static libraries, position
independent code is disabled if no libraries will be dynamically
linked and the target does not require position independent code.
