* some instructions are not implemented yet
* fix off-by-1 in Air.getMainBody
* Compilation: use `@import("builtin")` rather than `std.builtin`
for the values that are different for different build configurations.
* Sema: avoid calling `addType` in between
air_instructions.ensureUnusedCapacity and corresponding
appendAssumeCapacity because it can possibly add an instruction.
* Value: functions print their names
Additionally: ZIR encoding for floats now supports float literals up to
f64, not only f32. This is because we no longer need a source location
for this instruction.
Now you can pass `.unneeded` for a `LazySrcLoc` and if there ended up
being a compile error that needed it, you'll get
`error.NeededSourceLocation`.
Callsites can now exploit this error to do the expensive computation
to produce a source location object and then repeat the operation.
Now the branch is compiling again, provided that one uses
`-Dskip-non-native`, but many code paths are disabled. The code paths
can now be re-enabled one at a time and updated to conform to the new
AIR memory layout.
to the link infrastructure, instead of being stored with Module.Fn. This
moves towards a strategy to make more efficient use of memory by not
storing Air or Liveness data in the Fn struct, but computing it on
demand, immediately sending it to the backend, and then immediately
freeing it.
Backends which want to defer codegen until flush() such as SPIR-V
must move the Air/Liveness data upon `updateFunc` being called and keep
track of that data in the backend implementation itself.
This commit changes the AIR file and the documentation of the memory
layout. The actual work of modifying the surrounding code (in Sema and
codegen) is not yet done.
* Inferred error sets are stored in the return Type of the function,
owned by the Module.Fn. So it cleans up that memory in deinit().
* Sema: update the inferred error set in zirRetErrValue
- Update relevant code in wrapErrorUnion
* C backend: improve some some instructions to take advantage of
liveness analysis to avoid being emitted when unused.
* C backend: when an error union has a payload type with no runtime
bits, emit the error union as the same type as the error set.
* ZIR: add two instructions:
- ret_err_value_code
- ret_err_value
* AstGen: add countDefers and utilize it to emit more efficient ZIR for
return expressions in the presence of defers.
* AstGen: implement |err| payloads for `errdefer` syntax.
- There is not an "unused capture" error for it yet.
* AstGen: `return error.Foo` syntax gets a hot path in return
expressions, using the new ZIR instructions. This also is part of
implementing inferred error sets, since we need to tell Sema to add
an error value to the inferred error set before it gets coerced.
* Sema: implement `@setCold`.
- Implement `@setCold` support for C backend.
* `@panic` and regular safety panics such as `unreachable` now properly
invoke `std.builtin.panic`.
* C backend: improve pointer and function value rendering.
* C linker: fix redundant typedefs.
* Add Type.error_set_inferred.
* Fix Value.format for enum_literal, enum_field_index, bytes.
* Remove the C backend test that checks for identical text
I measured a 14% reduction in Total ZIR Bytes from master branch
for std/os.zig.
It now displays the byte with proper printability handling. This makes
the relevant compile error test case no longer a regression in quality
from stage1 to stage2.
In order to not regress the quality of compile errors, some improvements
had to be made.
* std.zig.parseCharLiteral is improved to return more detailed parse
failure information.
* tokenizer is improved to handle null bytes in the middle of strings,
character literals, and line comments.
* validating how many unicode escape digits in string literals is moved
to std.zig.parseStringLiteral rather than handled in the tokenizer.
* when a tokenizer error occurs, if the reported token is the 'invalid'
tag, an error note is added to point to the invalid byte location.
Further improvements would be:
- Mention the expected set of allowed bytes at this location.
- Display the invalid byte (if printable, print it, otherwise
escape-print it).
There is now a distinction between `@import` with a .zig extension and
without. Without a .zig extension it assumes it is a package name, and
returns error.PackageNotFound if not mapped into the package table.
- hash/eql functions moved into a Context object
- *Context functions pass an explicit context
- *Adapted functions pass specialized keys and contexts
- new getPtr() function returns a pointer to value
- remove functions renamed to fetchRemove
- new remove functions return bool
- removeAssertDiscard deleted, use assert(remove(...)) instead
- Keys and values are stored in separate arrays
- Entry is now {*K, *V}, the new KV is {K, V}
- BufSet/BufMap functions renamed to match other set/map types
- fixed iterating-while-modifying bug in src/link/C.zig
We've settled on the nomenclature for the artifacts the compiler
pipeline produces:
1. Tokens
2. AST (Abstract Syntax Tree)
3. ZIR (Zig Intermediate Representation)
4. AIR (Analyzed Intermediate Representation)
5. Machine Code
Renaming `ir` identifiers to `air` will come with the inevitable
air-memory-layout branch that I plan to start after the 0.8.0 release.
When scanDecls happens, we create stub Decl objects that
have not been semantically analyzed. When they get referenced,
they get semantically analyzed.
Before this commit, when they got unreferenced, they were completely
deleted, including deleted from the containing Namespace.
However, if the update did not cause the containing Namespace to get
deleted, for example, if `std.builtin.ExportOptions` is no longer
referenced, but `std.builtin` is still referenced, and then `ExportOptions`
gets referenced again, the Namespace would be incorrectly missing the
Decl, so we get an incorrect "no such member" error.
The solution is to, when dealing with a no longer referenced Decl
objects during an update, clear them to the state they would be in
on a fresh scanDecl, rather than completely deleting them.

We're going to want to improve the stage2 test harness to print
the source file name when a compile error occurs otherwise std lib
contributors are going to see some confusing CI failures when they cause
stage2 AstGen compile errors.
Previously, ZIR was per-function so we could simply allocate a slice for
all ZIR instructions. However now ZIR is whole-file, so we need a sparse
mapping of ZIR to AIR instructions in order to not waste memory.
Previously, stage2 used a global decl_table for all Decl objects, keyed
by a 16-byte name hash that was hopefully unique. Now, there is a tree
of Namespace objects that own their named Decl objects.
Previously the frontend incorrectly called freeDecl for structs, which
never got allocateDecl called for them. There was simply a missing check
for hasCodeGenBits().
Just like when new parse errors occur during an update, when new AstGen
errors occur during an update, we do not reveal compile errors for Decl
objects which are inside of a newly failed File. Once the File passes
AstGen successfully, it will be compared with the previously succeeded
ZIR and the saved Decl compile errors will be handled properly.
Previously, compile log stored full SrcLoc info, which included absolute
AST node index. This becomes invalid after an incremental compilation.
To make it survive incremental compilation, store an offset from parent
Decl instead.
* Do not report export collision errors until the very end, because it
is possible, during an update, for a new export to be added before an
old one is semantically analyzed to be deleted. In such a case there
should be no compile error.
- Likewise we defer emitting exports until the end when we know for
sure what will happen.
* Sema: Fix not adding a Decl dependency on imported files.
* Sema: Properly add Decl dependencies for all identifier and namespace
lookups.
* After semantic analysis for a Decl, if it is still marked as
`in_progress`, change it to `dependency_failure` because if the Decl
itself failed, it would have already been changed during the call to
add the compile error.
In `Module.semaDecl`, the source location being used was double-relative
to the `Decl`, causing a crash when trying to compute byte offset for
the compile error.
Change the source location to node_offset = 0 since the scope being used
makes the source location relative to the Decl, which already has the
source node index populated.
Before this change, the attempt to save the most recent successful ZIR
code only worked in some cases; this reworks the code to be more robust,
thereby fixing a crash when running the stage2 "enums" CBE test cases.

Mainly I wanted Jakub's new macOS code for respecting stack size, since
we now depend on it for debug builds able to pass one of the test cases
for recursive comptime function calls with `@setEvalBranchQuota`.
The conflicts were all trivial.
* File stores `root_decl: Decl` instead of `namespace: *Namespace`.
This maps more cleanly to the actual ownership, since the `File` does
own the root decl, but it does not directly own the `Namespace`.
* `semaFile` completes the creation of the `Decl` even when semantic
analysis fails. The `analysis` field of the `Decl` will contain the
results of semantic analysis. This prevents cleaning up of memory
still referenced by other Decl objects.
* `semaDecl` sets `Struct.zir_index` of the root struct decl, which
fixes use of undefined value in case the first update contained a ZIR
compile error.
* Compilation: iteration over the deletion_set only tries to delete the
first one, relying on Decl destroy to remove itself from the deletion
set.
* link: `freeDecl` now has to handle the possibility of freeing a Decl
that was never called with `allocateDeclIndexes`.
* `deleteDecl` recursively iterates over a Decl's Namespace sub-Decl
objects and calls `deleteDecl` on them.
- Prevents Decl objects from being destroyed when they are still in
`deletion_set`.
* Sema: fix cleanup of anonymous Decl objects when an error occurs
during semantic analysis.
* tests: update test cases for fully qualified names
This avoids causing false positive compile errors when, for example, a
file had ZIR errors, and then code tried to look up a public decl from
the failed file.
