Prior to this change, `__DATA,__bss` and `__DATA,__thread_bss` would
get actually, physically written out to the output file, unnecessarily
filling the output file with 0s.
This was originally introduced in 4d48948b526337947ef59a83f7dbc81b70aa5723
but broken immediately afterwards in c8af00c66e8b6f62e4dd6ac4d86a3de03e9ea354.
This is more like a temp hack than anything else - I think the
mechanism we use for adjusting the stack when pushing args onto
the stack could/should be reused - i.e., we should just calculate
the stack alignment before each call and then reset the `rsp`
rather than relying on the current hack in `gen()` logic.
* push the arguments in reverse order
* add logic for pushing args of any abi size to stack - very similar to
`genSetStack` however, uses `.rsp` as the base register
* increment and decrement `.rsp` if we called a function with args on
the stack in `airCall`
* add logic for recovering args from the caller's stack in the callee
* rename `entry` to `entry_symbol_name` for the zig build API
* integrate with `zig cc` command line options
* integrate with COFF linking with LLD
* integrate with self-hosted ELF linker
* don't put it in the hash for MachO since it is ignored
In the behavior test listings, I had to move type_info.zig test import
to a section that did not include the x86 backend because it got to the
point where adding another test to the file, even if it was an empty
test that just returned immediately, caused a runtime failure when
executing the test binary.
Anyway, type info for opaques is implemented, and the declarations slice
is shared between it, enums, and unions.
Still TODO is the `data` field of a `Declaration`. I want to consider
removing it from the data returned from `@typeInfo` and introducing
`@declInfo` or similar for this data. This would avoid the complexity of
a lazy mechanism.
This reverts commit d48e4245b68bf25c7f41804a5012ac157a5ee546.
I have no idea why this is failing Drone CI, but in a branch, reverting
this commit solved the problem.
* introduce new Mir tag `mov_mem_index_imm` which selects instruction
of the form `OP ptr [reg + rax*1 + imm32], imm32` where the encoded
flags select the appropriate ptr width for memory store operation
(note that scale is fixed and set at 1)
Instead use the standarized option for communicating the
zig compiler backend at comptime, which is `zig_backend`. This was
introduced in commit 1c24ef0d0b09a12a1fe98056f2fc04de78a82df3.
The ZIR instructions `switch_capture_else` and `switch_capture_ref` are
removed because they are not needed. Instead, the prong index is set to
max int for the special prong.
Else prong with error sets is not handled yet.
Adds a new behavior test because there was not a prior on to cover only
the capture value of else on a switch.
Previously, breaking from an outer block at comptime would result in
incorrect control flow. Now there is a mechanism, `error.ComptimeBreak`,
similar to `error.ComptimeReturn`, to send comptime control flow further
up the stack, to its matching block.
This commit also introduces a new log scope. To use it, pass
`--debug-log sema_zir` and you will see 1 line per ZIR instruction
semantically analyzed. This is useful when you want to understand what
comptime control flow is doing while debugging the compiler.
One more `switch` test case is passing.
* implement `genSetStack` for `ptr_stack_offset`
* handle `ptr_add`
* implement storing from register into pointer in register
* split alignment and array tests into those that pass on x86_64 and
those that do not
* pass more tests on x86_64
* Fix incorrect result when the first digit after the decimal point is not 0-9 - eg 0x0.ap0
* Fix compiler panic when the number starts with `0X` with a capital `X` - eg 0X0p0
* Fix compiler panic when the number has a decimal point immediately after `0x` - eg 0x.0p0
Calling `insert` on a `std.MultiArrayList` currently fails with a compiler error due to using a `try` without the `!` annotation on the return type
```zig
this.list.insert(allocator, 0, listener);
```
```zig
/Users/jarred/Build/zig/lib/std/multi_array_list.zig:192:13: error: expected type 'void', found '@typeInfo(@typeInfo(@TypeOf(std.multi_array_list.MultiArrayList(src.javascript.jsc.node.types.Listener).ensureUnusedCapacity)).Fn.return_type.?).ErrorUnion.error_set'
try self.ensureUnusedCapacity(gpa, 1);
```
There is a mechanism to avoid redundant `as` ZIR instructions which is
to pass `ResultLoc.coerced_ty` instead of `ResultLoc.ty` when it is
known by AstGen that Sema will do the coercion.
This commit downgrades `coerced_ty` to `ty` when a result location
passes through an expression that branches, such as `if`, `switch`,
`while`, and `for`, causing the `as` ZIR instruction to be emitted.
This ensures that the type of a result location will be applied to, e.g.
a `comptime_int` on either side of a branch on a runtime condition.
