1. For incomplete arrays with initializer list (`int x[] = {1};`) use the
initializer size as the array size.
2. For arrays initialized with a string literal translate it as an array
of character literals instead of `[*c]const u8`
3. Don't crash if an empty initializer is used for an incomplete array.
4. Add a test for multi-character character constants
Additionally lay some groundwork for supporting wide string literals.
fixes#4831#7832#7842
The CLI gains -flto and -fno-lto options to override the default.
However, the cool thing about this is that the defaults are great! In
general when you use build-exe in release mode, Zig will enable LTO if
it would work and it would help.
zig cc supports detecting and honoring the -flto and -fno-lto flags as
well. The linkWithLld functions are improved to all be the same with
regards to copying the artifact instead of trying to pass single objects
through LLD with -r. There is possibly a future improvement here as
well; see the respective TODOs.
stage1 is updated to support outputting LLVM bitcode instead of machine
code when lto is enabled. This allows LLVM to optimize across the Zig and
C/C++ code boundary.

string literals and error set types were allocating the ty/val fields of
the anonymous Decl into the owner Decl's arena, rather than the
new anonymous Decl's arena as intended. This caused use of undefined
value later on in the pipeline.
Previously you had to recompile if you wanted to change the log scopes
that get printed. Now, log scopes can be set at runtime, and -Dlog
controls whether all logging is available at runtime.
Purpose here is a nicer development experience. Most likely stage2
developers will always want -Dlog enabled and then pass --debug-log
scopes when debugging particular issues.
ideal capacity is now determined by e.g.
x += x / f
rather than
x = x * b / a
This turns a multiplication into an addition, making it less likely to
overflow the integer. This commit also introduces padToIdeal() which
does saturating arithmetic so that no overflow is possible when
calculating ideal capacity.
closes#7830
The following AST avoids unnecessary derefs now:
* error set decl
* field access
* array access
* for loops: replace ensure_indexable and deref on the len_ptr with a
special purpose ZIR instruction called indexable_ptr_len.
Added an error note when for loop operand is the wrong type.
I also accidentally implemented `@field`.
* fix wrong pointer const-ness when unwrapping optionals
* allow grouped expressions and orelse as lvalues
* ZIR for unwrapping optionals: no redundant deref
- add notes to please don't use rlWrapPtr, this function should be
deleted
* catch and orelse: better ZIR for non-lvalue: no redundant deref;
operate entirely on values. lvalue case still works properly.
- properly propagate the result location into the target expression
* Test harness: better output when tests fail due to compile errors.
* TZIR: add instruction variants. These allow fewer TZIR instructions to
be emitted from zir_sema. See the commit diff for per-instruction
documentation.
- is_null
- is_non_null
- is_null_ptr
- is_non_null_ptr
- is_err
- is_err_ptr

* TZIR: removed old naming convention instructions:
- isnonnull
- isnull
- iserr
- unwrap_optional
* ZIR: add instruction variants. These allow fewer ZIR instructions to
be emitted from astgen. See the commit diff for per-instruction
documentation.

Also, force rewriting of code signature padding at every update so
that we take into account possible section relocs and expansion of
the last preceeding section, e.g., the string table.
This commit also tweak the logic responsible for managing debug lines
in `DebugSymbols`. In particular, in case we update the same function,
we'd previously incorrectly create a cycle adding pointer to the same
`SrcFn` to itself.
Add support for L'<wchar_t>', u'<char16_t>', and U'<char32_t>'. Currently
this just translates wide char literals to \u{NNNNNN} escape codes
(e.g. U'💯' -> '\u{1f4af}')
Another approach would be to emit UTF-8 encoded character literals
directly, but in my opinion this approaches Unicode-complete because it
would require knowledge of which Unicode codepoints have graphical
representations for the emitted source to be readable.
We could also just emit integer literals, but the current method makes
it clear that we have translated a wide character literal and not just
an integer constant.
When codegen ends in failure, we need to manually clean up any fixups
that may have been gathered during that `codegen.generateSymbol` call.
Otherwise, we will end trapping.
* Implement error notes
- note: other symbol exported here
- note: previous else prong is here
- note: previous '_' prong is here
* Add Compilation.CObject.ErrorMsg. This object properly converts to
AllErrors.Message when the time comes.
* Add Compilation.CObject.failure_retryable. Properly handles
out-of-memory and other transient failures.
* Introduce Module.SrcLoc which has not only a byte offset but also
references the file which the byte offset applies to.
* Scope.Block now contains both a pointer to the "owner" Decl and the
"source" Decl. As an example, during inline function call, the
"owner" will be the Decl of the caller and the "source" will be the
Decl of the callee.
* Module.ErrorMsg now sports a `file_scope` field so that notes can
refer to source locations in a file other than the parent error
message.
* Some instances where a `*Scope` was stored, now store a
`*Scope.Container`.
* Some methods in the `Scope` namespace were moved to the more specific
type, since there was only an implementation for one particular tag.
- `removeDecl` moved to `Scope.Container`
- `destroy` moved to `Scope.File`
* Two kinds of Scope deleted:
- zir_module
- decl
* astgen: properly use DeclVal / DeclRef. DeclVal was incorrectly
changed to be a reference; this commit fixes it. Fewer ZIR
instructions processed as a result.
- declval_in_module is renamed to declval
- previous declval ZIR instruction is deleted; it was only for .zir
files.
* Test harness: friendlier diagnostics when an unexpected set of errors
is encountered.
* zir_sema: fix analyzeInstBlockFlat by properly calling resolvingInst
on the last zir instruction in the block.
Compile log implementation:
* Write to a buffer rather than directly to stderr.
* Only keep track of 1 callsite per Decl.
* No longer mutate the ZIR Inst struct data.
* "Compile log statement found" errors are only emitted when there are
no other compile errors.
-femit-zir and support for .zir source files is regressed. If we wanted
to support this again, outputting .zir would need to be done as yet
another backend rather than in the haphazard way it was previously
implemented.
For parsing .zir, it was implemented previously in a way that was not
helpful for debugging. We need tighter integration with the test harness
for it to be useful; so clearly a rewrite is needed. Given that a
rewrite is needed, and it was getting in the way of progress and
organization of the rest of stage2, I regressed the feature.
