This option can be used to produce a C backend build of the self-hosted
compiler, which only has the C backend enabled. Once the C backend is
capable of self-hosting, this will be a way for us to replace our stage1
codebase with a C backend build of self-hosted, which we can then use
for bootstrapping. See #5246 for more details.
Using this option right now results in a crash because the C backend is
not yet passing all the behavior tests.
CMake recognizes the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH environment variable for some
things, and also the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH cache variable for other things.
However, it does not relate these two things, i.e. if the environment
variable is set, CMake does not populate the cache variable in a
corresponding manner. Some package systems, such as Homebrew, set the
environment variable but not the cache variable. Furthermore, the
environment variable follows the system path separator, such as ':' on
POSIX and ';' on Windows, but the cache variable follows CMake's array
behavior, i.e. always ';' for a separator.
Closes#13242
This documents status of routines and adds the next work item
"Decimal float library routines", which are only recommended for
binary data. Complete absence of tests is also documented.
This does not document the various aliases, e.g. those for ARM.
Missing Integer library routines:
- __addvsi3
- __addvdi3
- __addvti3
- __addvdi3
- __addvti3
- __subvsi3
- __subvdi3
- __subvti3
- __subvdi3
- __subvti3
- __mulvsi3
- __mulvdi3
- __mulvti3
- __mulvdi3
- __mulvti3
Missing floating library routines:
- __powisf2
- __powidf2
- __powitf2
- __powixf2
Missing routines for symbol-level compatibility to gcc:
- __ashlsi3
- __ashrsi3
- __lshrsi3
cmp.zig was accidently being referenced twice, rather than importing
memcmp.zig. This means that its symbols were also not included in
the generated compiler-rt output.
1. If an object file was not compiled with `MH_SUBSECTIONS_VIA_SYMBOLS`
such a hand-written ASM on x86_64, treat the entire object file as
not suitable for dead code stripping aka a GC root.
2. If there are non-extern relocs within a section, treat the entire
section as a root, at least temporarily until we work out the exact
conditions for marking the atoms live.
Instead of adding 3 fields to every `Block`, this adds just one. The
function-level information is saved in the `Sema` struct instead,
which is created/copied more rarely.
Previously, we'd overwrite the errors in a circular buffer. Now that
error return traces are intended to follow a stack discipline, we no
longer have to support the index rolling over. By treating the trace
like a saturating stack, any pop/restore code still behaves correctly
past-the-end of the trace.
As a bonus, this adds a small blurb to let the user know when the trace
saturated and x number of frames were dropped.
