Improve testing MachO binaries by verbose printing of the symtab
which includes segment,section names for defined symbols, and
import (dylib) name for imports.
This valid zig code produces reasonable LLVM IR, however, on the
wasm32-wasi target, when using the wasmtime runtime, the number of
locals of the `isSquare` function exceeds 50000, causing wasmtime
to refuse to execute the binary.
The `inline` keyword in Zig is intended to be used only where it is
semantically necessary; not as an optimization hint. Otherwise, this may
produce unwanted binary bloat for the -OReleaseSmall use case.
In the future, it is possible that we may end up with both `inline`
keyword, which operates as it does in status quo, and additionally
`callconv(.inline_hint)` which has no semantic impact, but may be
observed by optimization passes.
In this commit, I also cleaned up `isSquare` by eliminating an
unnecessary mutable variable, replacing it with several local constants.
Closes#11947.
MachO linker now handles `-needed-l<name>`, `-needed_library=<name>`
and `-needed_framework=<name>`. While on macOS `-l` is equivalent
to `-needed-l`, and `-framework` to `-needed_framework`, it can be
used to the same effect as on Linux if combined with `-dead_strip_dylibs`.
This commit also adds handling for `-needed_library` which is macOS
specific flag only (in addition to `-needed-l`).
Finally, in order to leverage new linker testing harness, this commit
added ability to specify lowering to those flags via `build.zig`:
`linkSystemLibraryNeeded` (and related), and `linkFrameworkNeeded`.
Before this commit, the passed in length would always be given to the RtlCaptureStackBackTrace call. Now we always give the length of the actual buffer we're using (the addr_buf_stack size of 32 or the passed in length if it's larger than 32; this matches what the doc comment says the function was meant to be doing as well).
This was causing empty stack traces for things like the GeneralPurposeAllocator leak checking.
Fixes#6687
We now ensure the "bss" section is last, which allows us to not
emit this section and let the runtime initialize the memory with 0's instead.
This allows for smaller binaries.
The order of the other segments is arbitrary and does not matter, this may
change in the future.
Includes both traditiona and incremental codepaths with one caveat that
in incremental case, the requested size cannot be smaller than the
default padding size due to prealloc required due to incremental nature
of linking.
Also parse `-headerpad_max_install_names`, however, not actionable just yet -
missing implementation.
Unlike targeting ELF-based OSes such as Linux, resolving system libs
on Darwin should follow one of two strategies: `-search_paths_first`
or `-search_dylibs_first` and hence we defer always forcing linking
a static library to the linker.
Decls will now be put into their respective segment.
e.g. a constant decl will be inserted into the "rodata" segment,
whereas an uninitialized decl will be put in the "bss" segment instead.
Ignore MachO-specific flag -search_paths_first, since it is the default
in zld and ld64.
Also see Jakub's comment[1]:
Changing topic slightly, @motiejus dunno if you noticed, with this
change building arm64 Zig binary fails on macos - it complains about
unknown -search_paths_first flag. This one is an easy fix: we should
ignore it since this is the default behaviour in both ld64 and zld.
