`getExternalExecutor` is moved from `std.zig.CrossTarget` to
`std.zig.system.NativeTargetInfo.getExternalExecutor`.
The function also now communicates a bit more information about *why*
the host is unable to execute a binary. The CLI is updated to report
this information in a useful manner.
`getExternalExecutor` is also improved to detect such patterns as:
* x86_64 is able to execute x86 binaries
* aarch64 is able to execute arm binaries
* etc.
Added qemu-hexagon support to `getExternalExecutor`.
`std.Target.canExecBinaries` of is removed; callers should use the more
powerful `getExternalExecutor` instead.
Now that `zig test` tries to run the resulting binary no matter what,
this commit has a follow-up change to the build system and docgen to
utilize the `getExternalExecutor` function and pass `--test-no-exec`
in some cases to avoid getting the error.
Additionally:
* refactor: extract NativePaths and NativeTargetInfo into their own
files named after the structs.
* small improvement to langref to reduce the complexity of the `callconv`
expression in a couple examples.
If a partial read occurs past the halfway point, buf.len - i will be
less than i, which is illegal. The end bound is also entirely unecessary
in this case, so just remove it.
This is mainly because arm64 macOS doesn't support all
versions supported by x86_64 macOS. This is just a temporary
thing until both architectures support the same set of OSes.
We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
This is now no longer limited to targeting macOS natively but also
tries to detect the sysroot when targeting different Apple platforms
from macOS; for instance targeting iPhone Simulator from macOS. In
this case, Zig will try detecting the SDK path by invoking
`xcrun --sdk iphonesimulator --show-sdk-path`, and if the command
fails because the SDK doesn't exist (case when having CLT installed only)
or not having either Xcode or CLT installed, we simply return null
signaling that the user has to provide the sysroot themselves.

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.
The CPU detection code is nearly at feature parity, we do support
detecting the native CPU on Sparc systems and macos, our ARM/AArch64
model list is quite comprehensive and so is our PPC one.
The only missing pieces are:
- ARM32 detection on Darwin hosts (I don't think anybody is planning on
running the compiler on a old-ass iPhone)
- s390x detection on Linux hosts, this can be easily added at a later
stage.
There are some small problems here and there, mostly due to the pointers
having the lsb set and disrupting the fn alignment tests and the
`@FrameSize` implementation.
The macOS version is now obtained by parsing `SystemVersion.plist`.
Test cases added for plist files that date back to '2005 Panther and up
to the recent '2020 Big Sur 11.1 release of macOS.
Thus we are now able to reliably identify 10.3...11.1 and higher.
- drop use of kern.osproductversion sysctl
- drop use of kern.osversion sysctl (fallback)
- drop kern.osversion tests
- add `lib.std.zig.system.detect()`
- add minimalistic parser for `SystemVersion.plist`
- add test cases for { 10.3, 10.3.9, 10.15.6, 11.0, 11.1 }
closes#7569
This commit adds default search paths for system frameworks
on macOS while also adding `-isysroot` for OS versions at least BigSur.
Since BigSur (11.0.1), neither headers nor libs exist in standard
root locations (`/usr/include`, `/System/Library/Frameworks`). Instead, they
are now exclusively part of the installed developer toolchain (either
via XCode.app or CLT), and specifying `-isysroot` allows us to keep
using universal search paths such as `/System/Library/Frameworks` while
only changing the include flag from `-iframework` to
`-iframeworkwithsysroot`.
This commit fixes linking issue on macOS 11 BigSur by appending
a prefix path to all lib and framework search paths known as
`-syslibroot`.
The reason this is needed is that in macOS 11, the system libraries
and frameworks are no longer readily available in the filesystem.
Instead, the new macOS ships with a built-in dynamic linker cache
of all system-provided libraries, and hence, when linking with either
`lld.ld64` or `ld64`, it is required to pass in `-syslibroot [dir]`.
The latter can usually be obtained by invoking `xcrun --show-sdk-path`.
With this commit, Zig will do this automatically when compiling natively
on macOS. However, it also provides a flag `-syslibroot` which can be
used to overwrite the automtically populated value.
To summarise, with this change, the user of Zig is not required to
generate and append their own syslibroot path. Standard invocations
such as `zig build-exe hello.zig` or `zig build` for projects will
work out of the box. The only missing bit is `zig cc` and `zig c++`
since the addition of the `-syslibroot` option would be a mismatch
between the values provided by `clang` itself and Zig's wrapper.
On some distros (e.g. Void Linux) the release field of the tsname
struct may contain an underscore followed by a revision number at the
end. (e.g. 5.8.12_2).
* update to the new cache hash API
* std.Target defaultVersionRange moves to std.Target.Os.Tag
* std.Target.Os gains getVersionRange which returns a tagged union
* start the process of splitting Module into Compilation and "zig
module".
- The parts of Module having to do with only compiling zig code are
extracted into ZigModule.zig.
- Next step is to rename Module to Compilation.
- After that rename ZigModule back to Module.
* implement proper cache hash usage when compiling C objects, and
properly manage the file lock of the build artifacts.
* make versions optional to match recent changes to master branch.
* proper cache hash integration for compiling zig code
* proper cache hash integration for linking even when not compiling zig
code.
* ELF LLD linking integrates with the caching system. A comment from
the source code:
Here we want to determine whether we can save time by not invoking LLD when the
output is unchanged. None of the linker options or the object files that are being
linked are in the hash that namespaces the directory we are outputting to. Therefore,
we must hash those now, and the resulting digest will form the "id" of the linking
job we are about to perform.
After a successful link, we store the id in the metadata of a symlink named "id.txt" in
the artifact directory. So, now, we check if this symlink exists, and if it matches
our digest. If so, we can skip linking. Otherwise, we proceed with invoking LLD.
* implement disable_c_depfile option
* add tracy to a few more functions
