The compiler actually doesn't need any functional changes for this: Sema
does reification based on the tag indices of `std.builtin.Type` already!
So, no zig1.wasm update is necessary.
This change is necessary to disallow name clashes between fields and
decls on a type, which is a prerequisite of #9938.
* Introduce `-Ddebug-extensions` for enabling compiler debug helpers
* Replace safety mode checks with `std.debug.runtime_safety`
* Replace debugger helper checks with `!builtin.strip_debug_info`
Sometimes, you just have to debug optimized compilers...
This reverts commit 0c99ba1eab63865592bb084feb271cd4e4b0357e, reversing
changes made to 5f92b070bf284f1493b1b5d433dd3adde2f46727.
This caused a CI failure when it landed in master branch due to a
128-bit `@byteSwap` in std.mem.
Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
The idea here is that there are two ways we can reference a function at runtime:
* Through a direct call, i.e. where the function is comptime-known
* Through a function pointer
This means we can easily perform a form of rudimentary escape analysis
on functions. If we ever see a `decl_ref` or `ref` of a function, we
have a function pointer, which could "leak" into runtime code, so we
emit the function; but for a plain `decl_val`, there's no need to.
This change means that `comptime { _ = f; }` no longer forces a function
to be emitted, which was used for some things (mainly tests). These use
sites have been replaced with `_ = &f;`, which still triggers analysis
of the function body, since you're taking a pointer to the function.
Resolves: #6256Resolves: #15353
Now they use slices or array pointers with any element type instead of
requiring byte pointers.
This is a breaking enhancement to the language.
The safety check for overlapping pointers will be implemented in a
future commit.
closes#14040
There are still a few occurrences of "stage1" in the standard library
and self-hosted compiler source, however, these instances need a bit
more careful inspection to ensure no breakage.
Adds error for taking a non comptime parameter in a function returning a
comptime-only type but not when that type is dependent on a parameter.

This also adds `std.sort.sortContext` and
`std.sort.insertionSortContext` which are more advanced methods that
allow overriding the `swap` method. The former calls the latter for now
because reworking the main sort implementation is a big task that can be
done later without any changes to the API.
This reverts commit 1f10cf4edf2b645e63dedc42f5d7475914bf2311.
Re-opens #10618
I want to solve this a different way. `align(S)` where S is a 0-byte
type should work in this context.
This also caused issues such as
https://github.com/Vexu/arocc/issues/221
Calling `insert` on a `std.MultiArrayList` currently fails with a compiler error due to using a `try` without the `!` annotation on the return type
```zig
this.list.insert(allocator, 0, listener);
```
```zig
/Users/jarred/Build/zig/lib/std/multi_array_list.zig:192:13: error: expected type 'void', found '@typeInfo(@typeInfo(@TypeOf(std.multi_array_list.MultiArrayList(src.javascript.jsc.node.types.Listener).ensureUnusedCapacity)).Fn.return_type.?).ErrorUnion.error_set'
try self.ensureUnusedCapacity(gpa, 1);
```
We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
