When using llvm opaque pointers, typed pointers and pointer bitcasts are
no longer needed. This also avoids needing packed struct layouts that
are nested inside pointers, letting us avoid computing struct layouts
in Sema that could cause unnecessary dependency loops.
Otherwise, we were prematurely committing `__LINKEDIT` segment LC
with outdated size (i.e., without code signature being taken into account).
This would scaffold into strict validation failures by Apple tooling.
The extended instructions starting with opcode `0xFC` are refactored
to make the work the same as the SIMD instructions. This means a
`Mir` instruction no longer contains a field 'secondary'. Instead,
we use the `payload` field to store the index into the extra list
which contains the extended opcode value. In case of instructions
such as 'memory.fill' which also have an immediate value, such
values will also be stored in the extra list right after the
instruction itself. This makes each `Mir` instruction smaller.
This merges the paths from flushModule and linkWithZld to a single
function that will write the entire WebAssembly module to the file.
This reduces the chance of mistakes as we do not have to duplicate
the logic. A similar action may be needed later for linkWithLLD.
Normally when we want a pointer to the end of a struct we just add 1 to
the struct pointer. However, when it is a zero-bit struct, the pointer
type being used during lowering is often a dummy pointer type that
actually points to a non-zero-bit type, so we actually want to add 0
instead, since a zero-bit struct begins and ends at the same address.
* Initialize `big_align` with 1 as 0 is not a valid alignment.
* Add an assert to `alignForwardGeneric` to catch this issue earlier.
* Refactor valid alignment checks to call a more descriptive function.
* Handle a `null` return from `llvmFieldIndex`.
* Add a behavior test to test this code path.
* Reword this test name, which incorrectly described how pointers to
zero-bit fields behave, and instead describe the actual test.
When an atom has one or multiple aliasses, we we could not find the
target atom from the alias'd symbol. This is solved by ensuring that
we also insert each alias symbol in the symbol-atom map.
* Handle a `null` return from `llvmFieldIndex`.
* Add a behavior test to test this code path.
* Reword this test name, which incorrectly described how pointers to
zero-bit fields behave, and instead describe the actual test.
Previously we used the relocation index to find the corresponding
symbol that represents the type. However, the index actually
represents the index into the list of types. We solved this by
first retrieving the original type, and then finding its location
in the new list of types. When the atom file is 'null', it means
the type originates from a Zig function pointer or a synthetic
function. In both cases, the final type index was already resolved
and therefore equals to relocation's index value.
