* remove unused download page html. It's now handled in the
www.ziglang.org website repo.
* add netbsd to the downloads index.json file that we send to
the www.ziglang.org website repo.
* shallow clone the website repo to avoid downloading old copies of
data.js unnecessarily.
Implement io_uring submission queue entry preparation methods for
epoll_ctl, poll_add and poll_remove.
Poll masks are designated as 32-bit little-endian integers as
specified in liburing's definitions.
Updated io_uring_prep_rw to take in an unsigned 64-bit address instead
of an anytype. io_uring_sqe by default assumes that the address
specified in a submission queue entry is an unsigned 64-bit integer.
For stage1 ZIR instructions and stage1 AIR instructions, the instruction
op code was taking up 8 bytes due to padding even though it only needed
1 byte. This commit reduces the ref_count field from uint32_t to
uint16_t because the code only really cares if instructions are
referenced at all, not how many times they are referenced. With the
ref_count field reduced to uint16_t the uint8_t op code is now placed in
the freed up space.
Empirically, this saves 382 MiB of peak RAM usage when building the
self-hosted compiler, which is a reduction of 5%. Consequently this
resulted in a 3% reduction of cache-misses when building the self-hosted
compiler.
This was @SpexGuy's idea, committed by me because we tested it on my
computer.
* rename files to adhere to conventions
* remove unnecessary function / optionality
* fix merge conflict
* better panic message
* remove unnecessary TODO comment
* proper namespacing of declarations
* clean up documentation comments
* no copyright header needed for a brand new zig file that is not
copied from anywhere
Xoroshiro128+ is the current default non-cryptographic random
number generator.
This algorithm was designed to generate floating-point numbers, by
only using the top 53 bits. Lower bits have a significant bias, that
contradicts the documented properties for `rand.DefaultPrng`. This
also has implications on everything using `Random.fill()`, including
the way we generate random floating-point numbers.
In addition, Xoroshiro128+ has known issues. See for example:
- https://lemire.me/blog/2017/08/22/cracking-random-number-generators-xoroshiro128/
- https://www.pcg-random.org/posts/xoroshiro-fails-truncated.html
Xoshiro256++ addresses these issues, while remaining very fast.
The "Zig Test" section of the language reference has been moved between the
current "Hello World" section and the "Comments" section. This was done to
introduce the Zig test syntax before it is used in later sections.
The description of the Zig test feature has NOT been updated in this commit.
Closes#5837
* less branching by passing parameters in the main op code switch.
* properly pass the target when asking the type system for int info.
* handle u8, i16, etc when it is represented using
int_unsigned/int_signed tag.
* compile error instead of assertion failure for unimplemented cases
(greater than 64 bits integer).
* control flow cleanups
* zig.h: expand macros into inline functions
* reduce the complexity of the test case by making it one test case
that calls multiple functions. Also fix the problem of c_int max
value mismatch between host and target.
