These ifs were missing a case for f80 which should have shifted by one,
but we can just compute the correct value instead. Also, we want the
fractional bits to be a multiple of four, not the mantissa bits, since
the mantissa could have a leading one which we want to be separated.
This makes it easier to understand how control flow should happen in
various cases; already just by doing this it is revealed that
UndefinedSymbol and UndefinedSymbolReference should be merged, and that
MissingMainEntrypoint should be removed in favor of the ErrorFlags
mechanism thath we already have for missing the main entrypoint.
The main motivation for this change, however, is preventing a compile
error when there is conditional compilation inside linker
implementations, causing the flush() error set to depend on compilation
options. With this change, the error set is fixed, and, notably, the
`-Donly-c` flag no longer has compilation errors due to this error set.
The larger alignment on this platform means that long double reports
a sizeof 16 bytes, but it's underlying size is really just the 10
bytes of `f80`
C doesn't give us a way to see the "underlying" size of a type, so
this has to be caught by hand or by monitoring runtime memory. Luckily,
x86 and x86-64 are the only platforms that seem to use a non-power-of-two
type like this.
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 value corresponds to clang/gcc's `__alignof` (rather than
`_Alignof` which reports the minimum alignment). We don't use this
information yet, but it might be useful for implementing ABIs so it
is included here.
