* AstGen: fix not emitting `struct_init_empty` when an explicit type is
present in struct initialization syntax.
* AstGen: these two syntaxes now lower to identical ZIR:
- `var a = A{ .b = c };`
- `var a = @as(A, .{ .b = c });`
* Zir: clarify `auto_enum_tag` in the doc comments.
* LLVM Backend: fix lowering of function return types when the type has
0 bits.
* prepare compiler-rt to support being compiled by stage2
- put in a few minor workarounds that will be removed later, such as
using `builtin.stage2_arch` rather than `builtin.cpu.arch`.
- only try to export a few symbols for now - we'll move more symbols
over to the "working in stage2" section as they become functional
and gain test coverage.
- use `inline fn` at function declarations rather than `@call` with an
always_inline modifier at the callsites, to avoid depending on the
anonymous array literal syntax language feature (for now).
* AIR: replace floatcast instruction with fptrunc and fpext for
shortening and widening floating point values, respectively.
* Introduce a new ZIR instruction, `export_value`, which implements
`@export` for the case when the thing to be exported is a local
comptime value that points to a function.
- AstGen: fix `@export` not properly reporting ambiguous decl
references.
* Sema: handle ExportOptions linkage. The value is now available to all
backends.
- Implement setting global linkage as appropriate in the LLVM
backend. I did not yet inspect the LLVM IR, so this still needs to
be audited. There is already a pending task to make sure the alias
stuff is working as intended, and this is related.
- Sema almost handles section, just a tiny bit more code is needed in
`resolveExportOptions`.
* Sema: implement float widening and shortening for both `@floatCast`
and float coercion.
- Implement the LLVM backend code for this as well.
Otherwise, for last sections in segments it could happen we would
not expand the segment when actually required thus exceeding the
segment's size and causing data clobbering and dyld runtime errors.
There were two things to resolve here:
* Snektron's branch edited Zir printing, but in master branch
I moved the printing code from Zir.zig to print_zir.zig. So that
just had to be moved over.
* In master branch I fleshed out coerceInMemory a bit more, which
caused one of Snektron's test cases to fail, so I had to add
addrspace awareness to that. Once I did that the tests passed again.
* introduce float_to_int and int_to_float AIR instructionts and
implement for the LLVM backend and C backend.
* Sema: implement `zirIntToFloat`.
* Sema: implement `@atomicRmw` comptime evaluation
- introduce `storePtrVal` for when one needs to store a Value to a
pointer which is a Value, and assert it happens at comptime.
* Value: introduce new functionality:
- intToFloat
- numberAddWrap
- numberSubWrap
- numberMax
- numberMin
- bitwiseAnd
- bitwiseNand (not implemented yet)
- bitwiseOr
- bitwiseXor
* Sema: hook up `zirBitwise` to the new Value bitwise implementations
* Type: rename `isFloat` to `isRuntimeFloat` because it returns `false`
for `comptime_float`.
This is a property which solely belongs to pointers to functions,
not to the functions themselves. This cannot be properly represented by
stage 2 at the moment, as type with zigTypeTag() == .Fn is overloaded for
for function pointers and function prototypes.
* test runner is improved to respect `error.SkipZigTest`
* start code is improved to `@setAlignStack(16)` before calling main()
* the newly passing behavior test has a workaround for the fact that
stage2 cannot yet call `std.Target.x86.featureSetHas()` at comptime.
This is blocking on comptime closures. The workaround is that there
is a new decl `@import("builtin").stage2_x86_cx16` which is a `bool`.
* Implement `@setAlignStack`. This language feature should be re-evaluated
at some point - I'll file an issue for it.
* LLVM backend: apply/remove the cold attribute and noinline attribute
where appropriate.
* LLVM backend: loads and stores are properly annotated with alignment
and volatile attributes.
* LLVM backend: allocas are properly annotated with alignment.
* Type: fix integers reporting wrong alignment for 256-bit integers and
beyond. Once you get to 16 byte aligned, there is no further
alignment for larger integers.
* langref: add some more "see also" links for atomics
* Add the following AIR instructions
- atomic_load
- atomic_store_unordered
- atomic_store_monotonic
- atomic_store_release
- atomic_store_seq_cst
- atomic_rmw
* Implement those AIR instructions in LLVM and C backends.
* AstGen: make the `ty` result locations for `@atomicRmw`, `@atomicLoad`,
and `@atomicStore` be `coerced_ty` to avoid unnecessary ZIR
instructions when Sema will be doing the coercions redundantly.
* Sema for `@atomicLoad` and `@atomicRmw` is done, however Sema for
`@atomicStore` is not yet implemented.
- comptime eval for `@atomicRmw` is not yet implemented.
* Sema: flesh out `coerceInMemoryAllowed` a little bit more. It can now
handle pointers.
* Added fseeki64.c from mingw-w64 9.0.0. This file was missing in Zig distribution. This file contains implementation for _fseeki64 and _ftelli64 functions.
* Implement Sema for `@cmpxchgWeak` and `@cmpxchgStrong`. Both runtime
and comptime codepaths are implement.
* Implement Codegen for LLVM backend and C backend.
* Add LazySrcLoc.node_offset_builtin_call_argX 3...5
* Sema: rework comptime control flow.
- `error.ComptimeReturn` is used to signal that a comptime function
call has returned a result (stored in the Inlining struct).
`analyzeCall` notices this and handles the result.
- The ZIR instructions `break_inline`, `block_inline`,
`condbr_inline` are now redundant and can be deleted. `break`,
`block`, and `condbr` function equivalently inside a comptime scope.
- The ZIR instructions `loop` and `repeat` also are modified to
directly perform comptime control flow inside a comptime scope,
skipping an unnecessary mechanism for analysis of runtime code.
This makes Zig perform closer to an interpreter when evaluating
comptime code.
* Sema: zirRetErrValue looks at Sema.ret_fn_ty rather than sema.func
for adding to the inferred error set. This fixes a bug for
inlined/comptime function calls.
* Implement ZIR printing for cmpxchg.
* stage1: make cmpxchg respect --single-threaded
- Our LLVM C++ API wrapper failed to expose this boolean flag before.
* Fix AIR printing for struct fields showing incorrect liveness data.
This applies to stage2 where we make use of the cache system to work
out if we need to relink objects when performing incremental updates.
When the process is restarted however, while in principle the idea is
to carry on where we left off by reparsing the prelinked binary from
file, the required machinery is not there yet, and therefore we always
fully relink upon restart.
