The special case to take advantage of llvm's intrinsic
was generating invalid llvm ir:
```
Invalid bitcast
%60 = bitcast <2 x i2> %59 to i8, !dbg !3122
thread 145453 panic: LLVM module verification failed
```
fixes#10731
Thanks @nektro for previous work in #14878
This change creates a small breaking change:
It removes the `is_pub` field of a decl in `@typeInfo`
This is another minor change but still makes a visual difference and will reduce the amount you have to scroll in your terminal by a little bit.
Reasoning:
1. The `for (0..src.data.reference_trace_len)` loop will run at least once due to the `src.data.reference_trace_len > 0` check above.
2. In all 3 branches of the `if` in that `for` it will print something.
3. The 3 strings of all of those prints already end in `\n`.
Therefore, the extra `try stderr.writeByte('\n');` is unnecessary.
67d5bfef removed std.ChildProcess tests, suggesting to make them
standalone instead. This commit does exactly that after the
bug creating SIGPIPE in ReleaseFast is no more with LLVM 15.0.5.
Thanks to @x1ddos for the idea with the compile artifacts and PR
improvements.
Improvements for xxHash performance, both on small keys as well as large slices.
* std.hash: make benchmarks consistent for xxhash
There is some odd behaviour in the timings for the XXHash benchmarks
introduced in 879f0b9, specifically the changes to the allocation in
benchmarkHash. The problem is somewhere in the difference between
9628243 and 9362d61 (these are commit that were force-pushed over but
can be found in PR #15917).
* std.hash: correctly calculate throughput in benchmark
* std.hash: add hashes per sec to small key output
* std.hash: add exact and small xxhash routines
* std.hash: add --small-only flag to benchmark
* std.hash.xxhash: extract stateless Accumulator type
* std.hash.xxhash: cleanup hash() and improve small key perf
* std.hash.xxhash: port xxhash64 changes to xxhash32
* std.hash: change benchmark --small-only flag to --include-array
Specifically this is to make sure llvm data layout generation doesn't
regress. The no emit bin is to allow testing targets that can't
currently be linked. The commented out targets are ones that fail in
the linker anyway when no emit bin is passed.
