stage1 did this by accident by unconditionally semantically analyzing
std.builtin.panic, which imports the root source file to look for a
panic handler override. But stage2 is smarter; it will only semantically
analyze std.builtin.panic if any panic calls are emitted. So for very
simple compilations, the root source file was being ignored, even if it
contained `export` functions in it.
* Add a yield pattern for PowerPC64
* Fix compile error on pre-v6 ARM targets
* Use isb instead of yield on AArch64 to give the CPU a chance to enter
low-power states.
* Make the hint an inline function, the call overhead can be avoided.
Currently the default install prefix is $BUILD_ROOT/zig-cache,
but mixing cache and artifacts makes little sense. Instead make
$BUILD_ROOT/zig-out the default.
Should be good enough to unblock progress on the stage2 compiler.
Unifying this parser and the regular one (and perhaps rewrite it, #2207)
is left as an exercise for the reader.
* Remove some unused imports in AstGen.zig. I think it would make sense
to start decoupling AstGen from the rest of the compiler code,
similar to how the tokenizer and parser are decoupled.
* AstGen: For decls, move the block_inline instructions to the top of
the function so that they get lower ZIR instruction indexes. With
this, the block_inline instruction index combined with its corresponding
break_inline instruction index can be used to form a ZIR instruction
range. This is useful for allocating an array to map ZIR instructions
to semantically analyzed instructions.
* Module: extract emit-h functionality into a struct, and only allocate
it when emit-h is activated.
* Module: remove the `decl_table` field. This previously was a table of
all Decls in the entire Module. A "name hash" strategy was used to
find decls within a given namespace, using this global table. Now,
each Namespace has its own map of name to children Decls.
- Additionally, there were 3 places that relied on iterating over
decl_table in order to function:
- C backend and SPIR-V backend. These now have their own decl_table
that they keep populated when `updateDecl` and `removeDecl` are
called.
- emit-h. A `decl_table` field has been added to the new GlobalEmitH
struct which is only allocated when emit-h is activated.
* Module: fix ZIR serialization/deserialization bug in debug mode having
to do with the secret safety tag for untagged unions. There is still an
open TODO to investigate a friendlier solution to this problem with
the language.
* Module: improve deserialization of ZIR to allocate only exactly as
much capacity as length in the instructions array so as to not waste
space.
* Module: move `srcHashEql` to `std.zig` to live next to the definition
of `SrcHash` itself.
* Module: re-introduce the logic for scanning top level declarations
within a namespace.
* Compilation: add an `analyze_pkg` Job which is used to kick off the
start of semantic analysis by doing the equivalent of
`_ = @import("std");`. The `analyze_pkg` job is unconditionally added
to the work queue on every update(), with pkg set to the std lib pkg.
* Rename TZIR to AIR in a few places. A more comprehensive rename will
come later.
* 25519: remove unused const, safeguard against unreduced scalars
No behavior change, but it makes the existing code better match
the forthcoming code for other curves.
Rename nonAdjacentForm() to slide(), remove an unneeded and
confusing constant, and do a reduction in slide() if 257 bits would
be required.
Note that in all the high-level functions, the top bit is always
cleared, so the reduction is never necessary. But since the low-level
functions are public, the check is a safe thing to have.
* 25519: make identityElement public, deprecate neutralElement
Also fix a few comments by the way.
This reverts commit 77cb45f59f7b37c316af1762298d6032e2b130b5.
Zig's error return traces will point to the return token if they
happen to occur, so having multiple return statements makes those
stack traces really helpful. This destroys debuggability.
* #8454 Fix for std.mem.replacementSize adjacent matches bug.
When two 'needle' values are adjacent in the 'input' slice, the size is not
counted correctly. The 2nd 'needle' value is not matched because the index is
incremented by one after changing the index to account for the first value.
The impact is the the size returned is incorrect, and could cause UB when this
amount is used to size of the buffer passed to std.mem.replace.
* Apply changes from PR review:
- Add assert checking that the needle is non-empty and doc for this.
- Add minimal test that an empty input works.
- Use testing.expectEqualStrings.
Flush all the register windows to stack before starting the stack walk,
we may otherwise try to read garbage and crash and burn.
Add a few comptime annotations to debloat some functions.
A little function to complement the existing crypto.utils.timingSafeEql
function with a way to compare large numbers serialized as arrays.
This is useful to compare nonces and to check that group elements are
in canonical form.
Absence of side channels remains a best effort, reusing the common
pattern we use elsewhere.
Kick-start initial work on new cross-platform abstraction for
sockets. Adds a test for read timeouts and a test for creating
a non-blocking socket pair on Linux.
The new Socket abstraction is barebones and is made to support both
blocking and non-blocking abstractions, alongside different socket
protocols and domains.
Support for platform-dependant socket options that handles unsupported
platforms gracefully via. comptime checks is provided for the new Socket
abstraction.
This also marks the first out of many commits for introducing breaking
changes to the standard library in a separate `x` folder, which was
pre-approved by @andrewrk.
The intent for the new `x` package is to introduce new async, event loop,
networking, and operating system abstractions that would require breaking
the standard library significantly. By having the `x` package, code in the
standard library and compiler may then slowly be refactored to use the `x`
package. Once modules in the `x` package are stabilized, they can be moved
out of the `x` package, and a global 'grep' can be done to update import
paths that resolve to the stabilized module in the `x` package.
Notably this exposed an issue with the language having to do with the
secret safety tag on untagged unions. How can we have our cake and eat
it too? Not solved in this commit. I will file a language proposal to
tackle this issue soon.
Fixes a compile error in `std.fs.File.readvAll`.
Instead of having one function per precedence level, mirroring the BNF grammar,
this uses the "precedence climbing" algorithm with a table of operator
precedences (and a few special cases that don't fit into the table as it is).
This is a first pass -- it's probably possible to put more of the parser
into this form, e.g. to support prefix/suffix operators with precedence, if
necessary, or just to simplify the code more.
It may also be possible to speed this up by putting more useful information
into the tokens during tokenization, to avoid the extra branch on the token in
operInfo.
