We need to make sure that we bitcast our pointers correctly before
we use get_element_ptr to compute the offset for the parent
pointer.
This also includes a small fix-up for a problem where ptrs to const
i64/u64 were not using the correct type in >1-level decl chains
(where we call lowerParentPtr recursively)
The core change here is that we no longer blindly trust that parent
pointers (.elem_ptr, .field_ptr, .eu_payload_ptr, .union_payload_ptr)
were derived from the "true" type of the underlying decl. When types
diverge, direct dereference fails and we are forced to bitcast, as
usual.
In order to maximize our chances to have a successful bitcast, this
includes several changes to the dereference procedure:
- `root` is now `parent` and is the largest Value containing the
dereference target, with the condition that its layout and the
byte offset of the target within are both well-defined.
- If the target cannot be dereferenced directly, because the
pointers were not derived from the true type of the underlying
decl, then it is returned as null.
- `beginComptimePtrDeref` now accepts an optional array_ty param,
which is used to directly dereference an array from an elem_ptr,
if necessary. This allows us to dereference array types without
well-defined layouts (e.g. `[N]?u8`) at an offset
The load_ty also allows us to correctly "over-read" an .elem_ptr to an
array of [N]T, if necessary. This makes direct dereference work for
array types even in the presence of an offset, which is necessary if
the array has no well-defined layout (e.g. loading from `[6]?u8`)
This follows the same strategy as sema.typeRequiresComptime() and
type.comptimeOnly(): Two versions of the function, one which performs
resolution just-in-time and another which asserts that resolution is
complete.
Thankfully, this doesn't cause very viral type resolution, since
auto-layout structs and unions are very common and are known to not have
a well-defined layout without resolving their fields.
LLVM backend: generate DIGlobalVariable's for non-function globals and
rename linkage names when exporting functions and globals.
zig_llvm.cpp: add some wrappers to convert a handful of DI classes
into DINode's since DIGlobalVariable is not a DIScope like the others.
zig_llvm.cpp: add some wrappers to allow replacing the LinkageName of
DISubprogram and DIGlobalVariable.
zig_llvm.cpp: fix DI class mixup causing nonsense reinterpret_cast.
The end result is that GDB is now usable since you now no longer need
to manually cast every global nor fully qualify every export.
It is possible for the value length to be longer than the type because
we allow in-memory coercing of types such as `[5:0]u8` to `[5]u8`. In
such a case, the value length is 6 but the type length if 5.
The `.repeated` value type already got this right, so this is extending
similar logic out to `.aggregate` and `.bytes`. Both scenarios are
tested in behavior tests.
Fixes#11165
This also surfaces the fact that clz, ctz and popCount didn't actually
support 128 bit integers, despite what was claimed by
226fcd7c709ec664c5d883042cf7beb3026f66cb. This was partially hidden by
the fact that the test code for popCount only exercised 128 bit integers
in a comptime context. This commit duplicates that test case for runtime
ints too.
Implements `@Type` for structs, anon structs, and tuples. This is another place that would probably benefit from a `.reified_struct` type tag but will defer for later in the interest of getting tests passing first.
Detect if we are storing an array operand to a bitcasted vector pointer.
If so, we instead reach through the bitcasted pointer to the vector pointer,
bitcast the array operand to a vector, and then lower this as a store of
a vector value to a vector pointer. This generally results in better code,
as well as working around an LLVM bug.
See #11154
This parameter is only currently needed by zig_byte_swap() and
zig_bit_reverse(). This commit adds an option to airBuiltinCall() to
allow emitting the signedness information only when needed, removing
this unused parameter from the other builtins.
This should cover not only integers, as done in
87744a7ea9a2449764a110da4210d7750e3938ee, but also void, enums with a
single field, etc...

The libc interface uses `stat` instead of `stat64` struct.
This fixes, among other things, `zig fmt` accidentally setting the
formatted file's permission to 000.
This folds the airCountZeroes() code from
226fcd7c709ec664c5d883042cf7beb3026f66cb back into airBuiltinCall(),
since most of these builtins happen to require the same arguments and
can be unified under a common function signature.
This was already done for void types, and needs to be done for 0 bit
integer types as well to align the rendered function signatures with the
effective size of extra.data.args_len as seen by airCall().
Adds 2 new AIR instructions:
* dbg_var_ptr
* dbg_var_val
Sema no longer emits dbg_stmt AIR instructions when strip=true.
LLVM backend: fixed lowerPtrToVoid when calling ptrAlignment on
the element type is problematic.
LLVM backend: fixed alloca instructions improperly getting debug
location annotated, causing chaotic debug info behavior.
zig_llvm.cpp: fixed incorrect bindings for a function that should use
unsigned integers for line and column.
A bunch of C test cases regressed because the new dbg_var AIR
instructions caused their operands to be alive, exposing latent bugs.
Mostly it's just a problem that the C backend lowers mutable
and const slices to the same C type, so we need to represent that in the
C backend instead of printing two duplicate typedefs.
In stage1, this behavior was allowed (by accident?) and also
accidentally exercised by the behavior test changed in this commit. In
discussion on Discord, Andrew decided this should not be allowed in
stage2 since there is currently on real world reason to allow this
strange edge case.
I've added the compiler test to solidify that this behavior should NOT
occur and updated the behavior test to the new valid semantics.
