When compiling for *-windows-msvc, find the native libc_installation and
add the lib dirs to lib_dirs, so that system libs can be found.
Previously, `version` and `ole32` were detected via the mingw.libExists logic,
even on .msvc, which was a false positive. This detection logic for mingw doesn't
find uuid.lib, which was the failure that triggered this bugfix.
Only build the issue_5825 test if the native target is x86_64-windows-msvc,
since it requires the .msvc abi.
This fixes a panic in `unionAbiSize` when a 0-length array of a union is used as a struct field.
Because `resolveTypeLayout` does not resolve the `elem_ty` if `arrayLenIncludingSentinel` returns
0 for the array, the child union type is not guaranteed to have a resolved layout at this point.
Fixed this case by just returning 0 here.
I have observed the standard library tests overflowing the default WASI
stack as of the previous commit. As best as I can tell, this isn't
directly our fault: LLVM is just emitting less efficient code in debug
builds with the new codegen patterns.
This commit introduces the new `ref_coerced_ty` result type into AstGen.
This represents a expression which we want to treat as an lvalue, and
the pointer will be coerced to a given type.
This change gives known result types to many expressions, in particular
struct and array initializations. This allows certain casts to work
which previously required explicitly specifying types via `@as`. It also
eliminates our dependence on anonymous struct types for expressions of
the form `&.{ ... }` - this paves the way for #16865, and also results
in less Sema magic happening for such initializations, also leading to
potentially better runtime code.
As part of these changes, this commit also implements #17194 by
disallowing RLS on explicitly-typed struct and array initializations.
Apologies for linking these changes - it seemed rather pointless to try
and separate them, since they both make big changes to struct and array
initializations in AstGen. The rationale for this change can be found in
the proposal - in essence, performing RLS whilst maintaining the
semantics of the intermediary type is a very difficult problem to solve.
This allowed the problematic `coerce_result_ptr` ZIR instruction to be
completely eliminated, which in turn also simplified the logic for
inferred allocations in Sema - thanks to this, we almost break even on
line count!
In doing this, the ZIR instructions surrounding these initializations
have been restructured - some have been added and removed, and others
renamed for clarity (and their semantics changed slightly). In order to
optimize ZIR tag count, the `struct_init_anon_ref` and
`array_init_anon_ref` instructions have been removed in favour of using
`ref` on a standard anonymous value initialization, since these
instructions are now virtually never used.
Lastly, it's worth noting that this commit introduces a slightly strange
source of generic poison types: in the expression `@as(*anyopaque, &x)`,
the sub-expression `x` has a generic poison result type, despite no
generic code being involved. This turns out to be a logical choice,
because we don't know the result type for `x`, and the generic poison
type represents precisely this case, providing the semantics we need.

SPIR-V doesn't support true element indexing, so we probably
need to switch over to isByRef like in llvm for this to work
properly. Currently a temporary is used, which at least
seems to work.
When the tag is not known, it's set to `.none`. In this case, the value is either an
array of bytes (for extern unions) or an integer (for packed unions).
This was previously implemented by analyzing the AIR prior to the ZIR
`make_ptr_const` instruction. This solution was highly delicate, and in
particular broke down whenever there was a second `alloc` between the
`store` and `alloc` instructions, which is especially common in
destructure statements.
Sema now uses a different strategy to detect whether a `const` is
comptime-known. When the `alloc` is created, Sema begins tracking all
pointers and stores which refer to that allocation in temporary local
state. If any store is not comptime-known or has a higher runtime index
than the allocation, the allocation is marked as being runtime-known.
When we reach the `make_ptr_const` instruction, if the allocation is not
marked as runtime-known, it must be comptime-known. Sema will use the
set of `store` instructions to re-initialize the value in comptime
memory. We optimize for the common case of a single `store` instruction
by not creating a comptime alloc in this case, instead directly plucking
the result value from the instruction.

This changeset fixes the handling of alignment in several places. The
new rules are:
* `@alignOf(T)` where `T` is a runtime zero-bit type is at least 1,
maybe greater.
* Zero-bit fields in `extern` structs *do* force alignment, potentially
offsetting following fields.
* Zero-bit fields *do* have addresses within structs which can be
observed and are consistent with `@offsetOf`.
These are not necessarily all implemented correctly yet (see disabled
test), but this commit fixes all regressions compared to master, and
makes one new test pass.
Currently, the compiler (like @typeName) writes it `fn(...) Type` but
zig fmt writes it `fn (...) Type` (notice the space after `fn`).
This inconsistency is now resolved and function types are consistently
written the zig fmt way. Before this there were more `fn (...) Type`
occurrences than `fn(...) Type` already.
Safety is not a global flag that should be enabled or disabled for all
stores - it's lowered by the frontend directly into AIR instruction
semantics. The flag for this is communicated via the `store` vs
`store_safe` AIR instructions, and whether to write 0xaa bytes or not
should be decided in `airStore` and passed down via function parameters.
This commit is a step backwards since it removes functionality but it
aims our feet towards a better mountain to climb.
C99 introduced designated initializers for structs. Omitted fields are
implicitly initialized to zero. Some C APIs are designed with this in
mind. Defaulting to zero values for translated struct fields permits Zig
code to comfortably use such an API.

This introduces the concept of a "weak global name" into translate-c.
translate-c consists of two passes. The first is important, because it
discovers all global names, which are used to prevent naming conflicts:
whenever we see an identifier in the second pass, we can mangle it if it
conflicts with any global or any other in-scope identifier.
Unfortunately, this is a bit tricky for structs, unions, and enums. In
C, these types are not represented by normal identifers, but by separate
tags - `struct foo` does not prevent an unrelated identifier `foo`
existing. In general, we want to translate type names to user-friendly
ones such as `struct_foo` and `foo` where possible, but we can't
guarantee such names will not conflict with real variable names.
This is where weak global names come in. In the initial pass, when a
global type declaration is seen, `struct_foo` and `foo` are both added
as weak global names. This essentially means that we will use these
names for the type *if possible*, but if there is another global with
the same name, we will mangle the type name instead. Then, when actually
translating the declaration, we check whether there's a "true" global
with a conflicting name, in which case we mangle our name. If the
user-friendly alias `foo` conflicts, we do not attempt to mangle it: we
just don't emit it, because a mangled alias isn't particularly helpful.
