* 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...
This introduces some type safety so we cannot accidently give an atom
index as a symbol index. This also means we do not have to store any
optionals and therefore allow for memory optimizations. Lastly, we can
now always simply access the symbol index of an atom, rather than having
to call `getSymbolIndex` as it is easy to forget.
We now correctly create a symbol for each exported decl with its export-
name. The symbol points to the same linker-object. We store a map from
decl to all of its exports so we can update exports if it already exists
rather than infinitely create new exports.
CodeGen will create linking objects such as symbols, function types, etc
in ZigObject, rather than in the linker driver where the final result
will be stored. They will end up in the linker driver module during
the `flush` phase instead.
This must mean we must call functions such as `addOrGetFuncType` in the
correct namespace or else it will be created in the incorrect list and
therefore return incorrect indexes.
This commit eliminates the `dbg_block_{begin,end}` instructions from
both ZIR and AIR. Instead, lexical scoping of `dbg_var_{ptr,val}`
instructions is decided based on the AIR block they exist within. This
is a much more robust system, and also results in a huge drop in ZIR
bytes - around 7% for Sema.zig.
This required some enhancements to Sema to prevent elision of blocks
when they are required for debug variable scoping. This can be observed
by looking at the AIR for the following simple test program with and
without `-fstrip`:
```zig
export fn f() void {
{
var a: u32 = 0;
_ = &a;
}
{
var a: u32 = 0;
_ = &a;
}
}
```
When `-fstrip` is passed, no AIR blocks are generated. When `-fno-strip`
is passed, the ZIR blocks are lowered to true AIR blocks to give correct
lexical scoping to the debug vars.
The changes here incidentally reolve #19060. A corresponding behavior
test has been added.
Resolves: #19060
* 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
When an argument is a 'local', which is the case when it's a parameter,
we should not attempt to load it from memory. Instead, we directly emit
it to the stack. Only when the `WValue` is ensure to live in the linear
data section do we load it from memory onto the stack.
closes#18894
Arrays are currently always passed by reference, this means that we
always keep the value in linear memory and never load it to Wasm's
stack. Scalar values however do get lowered to Wasm's stack.
This means when bitcasting from an array to a scalar value, we must
load the memory of the array as such scalar type. To bitcast
a scalar type to an array, we allocate a new temporary in the
linear data segment, and then store the scalar value there.
Use inline to vastly simplify the exposed API. This allows a
comptime-known endian parameter to be propogated, making extra functions
for a specific endianness completely unnecessary.
The main goal of this commit is to remove the `runtime_value` field from
`InternPool.Key` (and its associated representation), but there are a
few dominos. Specifically, this mostly eliminates the "maybe runtime"
concept from value resolution in Sema: so some resolution functions like
`resolveMaybeUndefValAllowVariablesMaybeRuntime` are gone. This required
a small change to struct/union/array initializers, to no longer
use `runtime_value` if a field was a `variable` - I'm not convinced this
case was even reachable, as `variable` should only ever exist as the
trivial value of a global runtime `var` decl.
Now, the only case in which a `Sema.resolveMaybeUndefVal`-esque function
can return the `variable` key is `resolveMaybeUndefValAllowVariables`,
which is directly called from `Sema.resolveInstValueAllowVariables`
(previously `Sema.resolveInstValue`), which is only used for resolving
the value of a Decl from `Module.semaDecl`.
While changing these functions, I also slightly reordered and
restructured some of them, and updated their doc comments.
Commit 5393e56500d499753dbc39704c0161b47d1e4d5c has a flaw pointed out
by @mlugg: the `ty` field of pointer values changes when comptime values
are pointer-casted. This commit introduces a new encoding which
additionally stores the "original pointer type" which is used to store
the alignment of the anonymous decl, and potentially other information
in the future such as section and pointer address space. However, this
new encoding is only used when the original pointer type differs from
the casted pointer type in a meaningful way.
I was able to make the LLVM backend and the C backend lower anonymous
decls with the appropriate alignment, however I will need some help
figuring out how to do this for the backends that lower anonymous decls
via src/codegen.zig and the wasm backend.
The min and max builtins in Zig have some intricate behavior
related to floats, that is not replicated with the min and max
wasm instructions or using simple select operations. By lowering
these instructions to compiler_rt, handling around NaNs is done
correctly.

Instead of explicitly creating a `Module.Decl` object for each anonymous
declaration, each `InternPool.Index` value is implicitly understood to
be an anonymous declaration when encountered by backend codegen.
The memory management strategy for these anonymous decls then becomes to
garbage collect them along with standard InternPool garbage.
In the interest of a smooth transition, this commit only implements this
new scheme for string literals and leaves all the previous mechanisms in
place.
* add nested packed struct/union behavior tests
* use ptr_info.packed_offset rather than trying to duplicate the logic from Sema.structFieldPtrByIndex()
* use the container_ptr_info.packed_offset to account for non-aligned nested structs.
* dedup type.packedStructFieldBitOffset() and module.structPackedFieldBitOffset()
Structs were previously using `SegmentedList` to be given indexes, but
were not actually backed by the InternPool arrays.
After this, the only remaining uses of `SegmentedList` in the compiler
are `Module.Decl` and `Module.Namespace`. Once those last two are
migrated to become backed by InternPool arrays as well, we can introduce
state serialization via writing these arrays to disk all at once.
Unfortunately there are a lot of source code locations that touch the
struct type API, so this commit is still work-in-progress. Once I get it
compiling and passing the test suite, I can provide some interesting
data points such as how it affected the InternPool memory size and
performance comparison against master branch.
I also couldn't resist migrating over a bunch of alignment API over to
use the log2 Alignment type rather than a mismash of u32 and u64 byte
units with 0 meaning something implicitly different and special at every
location. Turns out you can do all the math you need directly on the
log2 representation of alignments.
