This moves .rc/.manifest compilation out of the main Zig binary, contributing towards #19063
Also:
- Make resinator use Aro as its preprocessor instead of clang
- Sync resinator with upstream
This fixes a bug where, at least with the LLVM backend, `@extern` calls
which had the same name as a normal `extern` in the same Zcu would
result in the `@extern` incorrectly suffixing the identifier `.2`.
Usually, the LLVM backend has a system to change the generated globals
to "collapse" them all together, but it only works if `updateDecl` is
called!
Previously, when multiple modules had builtin modules with identical
sources, two distinct `Module`s and `File`s were created pointing at the
same file path. This led to a bug later in the frontend. These modules
are now deduplicated with a simple hashmap on the builtin source.
This fixes an issue with the implementation of #18816. Consider the
following code:
```zig
pub fn Wrap(comptime T: type) type {
return struct {
pub const T1 = T;
inner: struct { x: T1 },
};
}
```
Previously, the type of `inner` was not considered to be "capturing" any
value, as `T1` is a decl. However, since it is declared within a generic
function, this decl reference depends on the context, and thus should be
treated as a capture.
AstGen has been augmented to tunnel references to decls through closure
when the decl was declared in a potentially-generic context (i.e. within
a function).
This implements the accepted proposal #18816. Namespace-owning types
(struct, enum, union, opaque) are no longer unique whenever analysed;
instead, their identity is determined based on their AST node and the
set of values they capture.
Reified types (`@Type`) are deduplicated based on the structure of the
type created. For instance, if two structs are created by the same
reification with identical fields, layout, etc, they will be the same
type.
This commit does not produce a working compiler; the next commit, adding
captures for decl references, is necessary. It felt appropriate to split
this up.
Resolves: #18816
Namespace types (`struct`, `enum`, `union`, `opaque`) do not use
structural equality - equivalence is based on their Decl index (and soon
will change to AST node + captures). However, we previously stored all
other information in the corresponding `InternPool.Key` anyway. For
logical consistency, it makes sense to have the key only be the true key
(that is, the Decl index) and to load all other data through another
function. This introduces those functions, by the name of
`loadStructType` etc. It's a big diff, but most of it is no-brainer
changes.
In future, it might be nice to eliminate a bunch of the loaded state in
favour of accessor functions on the `LoadedXyzType` types (like how we
have `LoadedUnionType.size()`), but that can be explored at a later
date.
This changes the representation of closures in Zir and Sema. Rather than
a pair of instructions `closure_capture` and `closure_get`, the system
now works as follows:
* Each ZIR type declaration (`struct_decl` etc) contains a list of
captures in the form of ZIR indices (or, for efficiency, direct
references to parent captures). This is an ordered list; indexes into
it are used to refer to captured values.
* The `extended(closure_get)` ZIR instruction refers to a value in this
list via a 16-bit index (limiting this index to 16 bits allows us to
store this in `extended`).
* `Module.Namespace` has a new field `captures` which contains the list
of values captured in a given namespace. This is initialized based on
the ZIR capture list whenever a type declaration is analyzed.
This change eliminates `CaptureScope` from semantic analysis, which is a
nice simplification; but the main motivation here is that this change is
a prerequisite for #18816.
Fixes a mismatch where the manifests would be written to the local cache dir, but the .def/.lib files themselves would be written to the global cache dir. This meant that if you cleared your global cache, your local cache would still think that the .lib files existed in the cache and it'd lead to 'No such file or directory' errors at linktime.
This mismatch was introduced in the stage1 -> stage2 transition of this code.
* Introduce `-Ddebug-extensions` for enabling compiler debug helpers
* Replace safety mode checks with `std.debug.runtime_safety`
* Replace debugger helper checks with `!builtin.strip_debug_info`
Sometimes, you just have to debug optimized compilers...
In `ld -r` mode, the linker will emit `N_GSYM` for any defined
external symbols as well as private externals. In the former case,
the thing is easy since `N_EXT` bit will be set in the nlist's type.
In the latter however we will encounter a local symbol with `N_PEXT`
bit set (non-extern, but was private external) which we also need
to include when resolving symbol stabs.
The major change in the logic for parsing symbol stabs per input
object file is that we no longer try to force-resolve a `N_GSYM`
as a global symbol. This was a mistake since every symbol stab
always describes a symbol defined within the parsed input object file.
We then work out if we should forward `N_GSYM` in the output symtab
after we have resolved all symbols, but never before - intel we lack
when initially parsing symbol stabs. Therefore, we simply record
which symbol has a debug symbol stab, and work out its precise type
when emitting output symtab after symbol resolution has been done.
