This commit changes the `root_module` field of `std.Build.Step.Compile`
to be a `*Module` rather than a `Module`. This is a breaking change, but
an incredibly minor one (the full potential extent of the breakage can
be seen in the modified standalone test).
This change will be necessary for an upcoming improvement, so it was
convenient to make it here.
The error messages here aren't amazing yet, but this is an improvement
on status quo, because the current behavior allows false negative
compile errors, so effectively miscompiles.

There are several test decls inside `/src` that are not currently being
tested and have bitrotted as a result. This commit revives those tests
and adds the `test-compiler-internals` set of tests which tests
everything reachable from `/src/main.zig`.
The goal here is to support both levels of unwind tables (sync and async) in
zig cc and zig build. Previously, the LLVM backend always used async tables
while zig cc was partially influenced by whatever was Clang's default.
Both of these instructions were previously under a special case in
`rvalue` which resulted in every reference to such an instruction adding
a new `ref` instruction. This had the effect that, for instance,
`&a != &a` for parameters. Deduplicating these `ref` instructions was
problematic for different reasons.
For `alloc_inferred`, the problem was that it's not valid to `ref` the
alloc until the allocation has been resolved (`resolve_inferred_alloc`),
but `AstGen.appendBodyWithFixups` would place the `ref` directly after
the `alloc_inferred`. This is solved by bringing
`resolve_inferred_alloc` in line with `make_ptr_const` by having it
*return* the final pointer, rather than modifying `sema.inst_map` of the
original `alloc_inferred`. That way, the `ref` refers to the
`resolve_inferred_alloc` instruction, so is placed immediately after it,
avoiding this issue.
For `param`, the problem is a bit trickier: `param` instructions live in
a body which must contain only `param` instructions, then a
`func{,_inferred,_fancy}`, then a `break_inline`. Moreover, `param`
instructions may be referenced not only by the function body, but also
by other parameters, the return type expression, etc. Each of these
bodies requires separate `ref` instructions. This is solved by pulling
entries out of `ref_table` after evaluating each component of the
function declaration, and appending the refs later on when actually
putting the bodies together. This gives way to another issue: if you
write `fn f(x: T) @TypeOf(x.foo())`, then since `x.foo()` takes a
reference to `x`, this `ref` instruction is now in a comptime context
(outside of the `@TypeOf` ZIR body), so emits a compile error. This is
solved by loosening the rules around `ref` instructions; because they
are not side-effecting, it is okay to allow `ref` of runtime values at
comptime, resulting in a runtime-known value in a comptime scope. We
already apply this mechanism in some cases; for instance, it's why
`runtime_array.len` works in a `comptime` context. In future, we will
want to give similar treatment to many operations in Sema: in general,
it's fine to apply runtime operations at comptime provided they don't
have side effects!
Resolves: #22140
This commit enhances AstGen to introduce a form of error resilience
which allows valid ZIR to be emitted even when AstGen errors occur.
When a non-fatal AstGen error (e.g. `appendErrorNode`) occurs, ZIR
generation is not affected; the error is added to `astgen.errors` and
ultimately to the errors stored in `extra`, but that doesn't stop us
getting valid ZIR. Fatal AstGen errors (e.g. `failNode`) are a bit
trickier. These errors return `error.AnalysisFail`, which is propagated
up the stack. In theory, any parent expression can catch this error and
handle it, continuing ZIR generation whilst throwing away whatever was
lost. For now, we only do this in one place: when creating declarations.
If a call to `fnDecl`, `comptimeDecl`, `globalVarDecl`, etc, returns
`error.AnalysisFail`, the `declaration` instruction is still created,
but its body simply contains the new `extended(astgen_error())`
instruction, which instructs Sema to terminate semantic analysis with a
transitive error. This means that a fatal AstGen error causes the
innermost declaration containing the error to fail, but the rest of the
file remains intact.
If a source file contains parse errors, or an `error.AnalysisFail`
happens when lowering the top-level struct (e.g. there is an error in
one of its fields, or a name has multiple declarations), then lowering
for the entire file fails. Alongside the existing `Zir.hasCompileErrors`
query, this commit introduces `Zir.loweringFailed`, which returns `true`
only in this case.
The end result here is that files with AstGen failures will almost
always still emit valid ZIR, and hence can undergo semantic analysis on
the parts of the file which are (from AstGen's perspective) valid. This
is a noteworthy improvement to UX, but the main motivation here is
actually incremental compilation. Previously, AstGen failures caused
lots of semantic analysis work to be thrown out, because all `AnalUnit`s
in the file required re-analysis so as to trigger necessary transitive
failures and remove stored compile errors which would no longer make
sense (because a fresh compilation of this code would not emit those
errors, as the units those errors applied to would fail sooner due to
referencing a failed file). Now, this case only applies when a file has
severe top-level errors, which is far less common than something like
having an unused variable.
Lastly, this commit changes a few errors in `AstGen` to become fatal
when they were previously non-fatal and vice versa. If there is still a
reasonable way to continue AstGen and lower to ZIR after an error, it is
non-fatal; otherwise, it is fatal. For instance, `comptime const`, while
redundant syntax, has a clear meaning we can lower; on the other hand,
using an undeclared identifer has no sane lowering, so must trigger a
fatal error.
It doesn't appear that targeting bridgeOS is meaningfully supported by Apple.
Even LLVM/Clang appear to have incomplete support for it, suggesting that Apple
never bothered to upstream that support. So there's really no sense in us
pretending to support this.
The freestanding and other OS targets by default need to just @trap in the
default Panic implementation.
And `isValidMemory` won't work with freestanding or other targets.
Update the unwind_freestanding.zig test case to also run on the 'other' OS
target, too. This should keep the Zig's stacktrace generation from
regressing on the standalone targets.
Without doing this, we don't actually test whether the data layout string we
generate matches LLVM's.
A number of targets had to be commented out due to this change:
* Some are using a non-working experimental LLVM backend (arc, csky, ...).
* Some don't have working LLD support (lanai, sparc, ...).
* Some don't have working self-hosted linker support (nvptx).
* Some are using ABIs that haven't been standardized (loongarch32).
Finally, all non-x86 uefi targets are hopelessly broken and can't really be
fixed until we change our emit logic to lower *-uefi-* verbatim rather than to
*-windows-*. See: https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/21630
Previously, stepping from the single statement within the loop would
always exit the loop because all of the code unrolled from the loop is
associated with the same line and treated by the debugger as one line.

This is necessary since isGnuLibC() is true for hurd, so we need to be able to
represent a glibc version for it.
Also add an Os.TaggedVersionRange.gnuLibCVersion() convenience function.
