It is possible to get comptime-known values from runtime-known values
for example the length of array. Allowing runtime only instructions to
be emitted outside function bodies allows these operations to happen.
In places where comptime-known values are required we have other methods
to ensure that and they usually result in more specific compile errors too.
Closes#12240
I have noticed this causing my terminal to stop accepting input
sometimes. The previous implementation with all of its flaws was better
in the sense that it never caused this to happen.
This commit has multiple reverts in it:
Revert "Merge pull request #13148 from r00ster91/progressfollowup"
This reverts commit cb257d59f97ea5655bf453d8e7f07bbfb0a88e58, reversing
changes made to f5f28e0d2c49d5c62914edf0bff8f1941eef721f.
Revert "`std.Progress`: fix inaccurate line truncation and use optimal
max terminal width (#12079)"
This reverts commit cd3d8f3a4ee22a41098b1daf2a36d7fbb342d0fa.
Windows gives AccessDenied if you delete a directory which contains open
file handles. This could be triggered when using CacheMode.whole when
cross compiling macho test binaries.
build.zig: add a 'compile' step to compile the self-hosted compiler
without installing it.
Compilation: set cache mode to whole when using the LLVM backend and
--enable-cache is passed.
This makes `zig build` act the same as it does with stage1. Upside is
that a second invocation of `zig build` on an unmodified source tree
will avoid redoing the compilation again. Downside is that it will
proliferate more garbage in the project-local cache (same as stage1).
This can eventually be fixed when Zig's incremental compilation is more
robust; we can go back to having LLVM use CacheMode.incremental and rely
on it detecting no changes and avoiding doing the flush() step.
enums so that we can branch to set `link_mode` properly when we iterate
over the clang arguments. also replaced `dynamic` flag in
clang_options_data.zig with proper definition similarly to `static`."
This reverts commit 6af0eeb58d1d220d407ce4c463eaeb25b35f2761.
This change needs more careful consideration. It regressed
zig-bootstrap due to cmake passing `-static -lkernel32` and zig failing
with error.UnableToStaticLink.

Currenty copy_file_range always uses at least two syscalls:
1. As many as it needs to do the initial copy (always 1 during my
testing)
2. The last one is always when offset is the size of the file.
The second syscall is used to detect the terminating condition. However,
because we do a stat for other reasons, we know the size of the file,
and we can skip the syscall.
Sparse files: since copy_file_range expands holes of sparse files, I
conclude that this layer was not intended to work with sparse files. In
other words, this commit does not make it worse for sparse file society.
Test program
------------
const std = @import("std");
pub fn main() !void {
const arg1 = std.mem.span(std.os.argv[1]);
const arg2 = std.mem.span(std.os.argv[2]);
try std.fs.cwd().copyFile(arg1, std.fs.cwd(), arg2, .{});
}
Test output (current master)
----------------------------
Observe two `copy_file_range` syscalls: one with 209 bytes, one with
zero:
$ zig build-exe cp.zig
$ strace ./cp ./cp.zig ./cp2.zig |& grep copy_file_range
copy_file_range(3, [0], 5, [0], 4294967295, 0) = 209
copy_file_range(3, [209], 5, [209], 4294967295, 0) = 0
$
Test output (this diff)
-----------------------
Observe a single `copy_file_range` syscall with 209 bytes:
$ /code/zig/build/zig build-exe cp.zig
$ strace ./cp ./cp.zig ./cp2.zig |& grep copy_file_range
copy_file_range(3, [0], 5, [0], 4294967295, 0) = 209

I did not fully wire it up in main.zig when I originally implemented
`-z nocopyreloc` in #11679 (440f5249f1a). Finish it.
If we strictly follow the rules, we should bump the cache has version,
since the field was technically added only now. But since nobody
complained thus far, I don't think many users care that much about it
and we can omit it.
When creating an `EmulatableRunStep`, it now correctly depends
on its own step rather than only the executable that was created.
This means we do not need to add extra `dependOn` statements on
both the emulatable step as well as the check object step.
same change as [68e26a2ceea85a1] "std: check for overflow in writeCurrentStackTrace"
On arm64 macOS, the address of the last frame is 0x0 rather than
a positive value like 0x1 on x86_64 macOS, therefore, we overflow
an integer trying to subtract 1 when printing the stack trace. This
patch fixes it by first checking for this condition before trying
to subtract 1.
Same behaviour on i386-windows-msvc.
Note that we do not need to signal the `SignalIterator` about this
as it will correctly detect this condition on the subsequent iteration
and return `null`, thus terminating the loop.

however, this is still implementation specific and only done for
DefaultRwLock.
- add num_reads maximum to ensure that reader threads stop if writer threads are
starved
- use relaxed orderings for the read atomic counter
- don't check at the end for non-zero read ops, since the reader threads may
only run once if they are starved
* More review changes
- Monotonic is sufficient for incrementing the reads counter
It is not yet determined whether the Zig language will land on
text-based string concatenation for inline assembly, as Zig 0.9.1
allows, and as this commit allows, or whether it will introduce a new
assembly syntax more integrated with the rest of the language. Until
this decision is made, this commit relaxes the restriction which was
preventing inline assembly expressions from using comptime expressions
for the assembly source code.
