`{}` for decls
`{p}` for enum fields
`{p_}` for struct fields and in contexts following a `.`
Elsewhere, `{p}` was used since it's equivalent to the old behavior.
Context: user provides `-` to read from stdin instead of a file.
Before: it would create a file in $ZIG_LOCAL_CACHE_DIR/tmp/ for each
invocation and leave it there.
After: it hashes the file contents and renames the file to the hash.
Result: repeated invocations of `zig cc` do not cause so much trash to
be created.
This moves .rc/.manifest compilation out of the main Zig binary, contributing towards #19063
Also:
- Make resinator use Aro as its preprocessor instead of clang
- Sync resinator with upstream
Previously, when multiple modules had builtin modules with identical
sources, two distinct `Module`s and `File`s were created pointing at the
same file path. This led to a bug later in the frontend. These modules
are now deduplicated with a simple hashmap on the builtin source.
* Introduce `-Ddebug-extensions` for enabling compiler debug helpers
* Replace safety mode checks with `std.debug.runtime_safety`
* Replace debugger helper checks with `!builtin.strip_debug_info`
Sometimes, you just have to debug optimized compilers...
Part of #19063.
Primarily, this moves Aro from deps/ to lib/compiler/ so that it can be
lazily compiled from source. src/aro_translate_c.zig is moved to
lib/compiler/aro_translate_c.zig and some of Zig CLI logic moved to a
main() function there.
aro_translate_c.zig becomes the "common" import for clang-based
translate-c.
Not all of the compiler was able to be detangled from Aro, however, so
it still, for now, remains being compiled with the main compiler
sources due to the clang-based translate-c depending on it. Once
aro-based translate-c achieves feature parity with the clang-based
translate-c implementation, the clang-based one can be removed from Zig.
Aro made it unnecessarily difficult to depend on with these .def files
and all these Zig module requirements. I looked at the .def files and
made these observations:
- The canonical source is llvm .def files.
- Therefore there is an update process to sync with llvm that involves
regenerating the .def files in Aro.
- Therefore you might as well just regenerate the .zig files directly
and check those into Aro.
- Also with a small amount of tinkering, the file size on disk of these
generated .zig files can be made many times smaller, without
compromising type safety in the usage of the data.
This would make things much easier on Zig as downstream project,
particularly we could remove those pesky stubs when bootstrapping.
I have gone ahead with these changes since they unblock me and I will
have a chat with Vexu to see what he thinks.
* make test names contain the fully qualified name
* make test filters match the fully qualified name
* allow multiple test filters, where a test is skipped if it does not
match any of the specified filters
I originally removed these in 402f967ed5339fa3d828b7fe1d57cdb5bf38dbf2.
I allowed them to be added back in #15299 because they were smuggled in
alongside a bug fix, however, I wasn't kidding when I said that I wanted
to take the design of std.http in a different direction than using this
data structure.
Instead, some headers are provided via explicit field names populated
while parsing the HTTP request/response, and some are provided via
new fields that support passing extra, arbitrary headers.
This resulted in simplification of logic in many places, as well as
elimination of the possibility of failure in many places. There is
less deinitialization code happening now.
Furthermore, it made it no longer necessary to clone the headers data
structure in order to handle redirects.
http_proxy and https_proxy fields are now pointers since it is common
for them to be unpopulated.
loadDefaultProxies is changed into initDefaultProxies to communicate
that it does not actually load anything from disk or from the network.
The function now is leaky; the API user must pass an already
instantiated arena allocator. Removes the need to deinitialize proxies.
Before, proxies stored arbitrary sets of headers. Now they only store
the authorization value.
Removed the duplicated code between https_proxy and http_proxy. Finally,
parsing failures of the environment variables result in errors being
emitted rather than silently ignoring the proxy.
error.CompressionNotSupported is renamed to
error.CompressionUnsupported, matching the naming convention from all
the other errors in the same set.
Removed documentation comments that were redundant with field and type
names.
Disabling zstd decompression in the server for now; see #18937.
I found some apparently dead code in src/Package/Fetch/git.zig. I want
to check with Ian about this.
I discovered that test/standalone/http.zig is dead code, it is only
being compiled but not being run. Furthermore it hangs at the end if you
run it manually. The previous commits in this branch were written under
the assumption that this test was being run with
`zig build test-standalone`.
This logic (currently) has a non-trivial cost (particularly in terms of
peak RSS) for tracking dependencies. Until incremental compilation is in
use in the wild, it doesn't make sense for users to pay that cost.
Pass the required lazy dependencies from the build runner to the parent
process via a tmp file instead of stdout. I'll reproduce this comment to
explain it:
The `zig build` parent process needs a way to obtain results from the
configuration phase of the child process. In the future, the make phase
will be executed in a separate process than the configure phase, and we
can then use stdout from the configuration phase for this purpose.
However, currently, both phases are in the same process, and Run Step
provides API for making the runned subprocesses inherit stdout and stderr
which means these streams are not available for passing metadata back
to the parent.
Until make and configure phases are separated into different processes,
the strategy is to choose a temporary file name ahead of time, and then
read this file in the parent to obtain the results, in the case the child
exits with code 3.
This commit also extracts some common logic from the loop that rebuilds
the build runner so that it does not run again when the build runner is
rebuilt.
Build manifest files support `lazy: true` for dependency sections.
This causes the auto-generated dependencies.zig to have 2 more
possibilities:
1. It communicates whether a dependency is lazy or not.
2. The dependency might be acknowledged, but missing due to being lazy
and not fetched.
Lazy dependencies are not fetched by default, but if they are already
fetched then they are provided to the build script.
The build runner reports the set of missing lazy dependenices that are
required to the parent process via stdout and indicates the situation
with exit code 3.
std.Build now has a `lazyDependency` function. I'll let the doc comments
speak for themselves:
When this function is called, it means that the current build does, in
fact, require this dependency. If the dependency is already fetched, it
proceeds in the same manner as `dependency`. However if the dependency
was not fetched, then when the build script is finished running, the
build will not proceed to the make phase. Instead, the parent process
will additionally fetch all the lazy dependencies that were actually
required by running the build script, rebuild the build script, and then
run it again.
In other words, if this function returns `null` it means that the only
purpose of completing the configure phase is to find out all the other
lazy dependencies that are also required.
It is allowed to use this function for non-lazy dependencies, in which
case it will never return `null`. This allows toggling laziness via
build.zig.zon without changing build.zig logic.
The CLI for `zig build` detects this situation, but the logic for then
redoing the build process with these extra dependencies fetched is not
yet implemented.
These are advanced options that make it possible to simultaneously
target the "host" computer, while overriding assumptions about the host
computer such as what CPU features are available, or what OS version
range to target.
This is useful only for the case of integrating with system package
manager builds which want to pretend the host is also the target.
