* introduce zigrt file. it contains only weak symbols so that
multiple instances can be merged. it contains __zig_panic
so that multiple .o files can call the same panic function.
* remove `@setFnVisible` builtin and add @setGlobalLinkage builtin
which is more powerful
* add `@panic` builtin function.
* fix collision of symbols with extern prototypes and internal
function names
* add stack protector safety when linking against libc. To add
the safety mechanism without libc requires implementing
Thread Local Storage. See #276
before, when we initialized a variable by copying the
initialization value, it made the internal const value
references point to a duplicate value, resulting in
a phony duplicate global value being updated instead of
the real on. now the behavior is as expected.
thanks to hoppetosse for pointing out this bug on IRC.
* Rip out legacy code for generics
* put scope in instruction instead of AST nodes
* separate top level decl stuff from AST nodes
- remove the assumption that there is a 1:1 correspondence
between an output instruction and an AST node
- This way we won't have to clone AST nodes for generics.
* add `setFnTest`, `setFnVisible`, `setFnStaticEval`,
`setFnNoInline` builtin functions to replace previous
directive functionality
* add `coldcc` and `nakedcc` as keywords which can be used as part
of a function prototype.
* `setDebugSafety` builtin can be used to set debug safety features
at a per block scope level.
* closes#169
* Introduce the concept of packages. Closes#3
* Add support for error notes.
* Introduce `@import` and `@c_import` builtin functions and
remove the `import` and `c_import` top level declarations.
* Introduce the `use` top level declaration.
* Add `--check-unused` parameter to perform semantic
analysis and codegen on all top level declarations, not
just exported ones and ones referenced by exported ones.
* Delete the root export node and add `--library` argument.
