Since the Zig language documentation claims support for `.Min` and
`.Max` in `@atomicRmw` with floats, allow in Sema and implement for both
the llvm and C backends.
This commit enables producing 64-bit DWARF format for Zig executables
that are produced through the LLVM backend. This is achieved by exposing
both command-line flags and CompileStep flags. The production of the
64-bit format only affects binaries that use the DWARF format and it is
disabled on MacOS due to it being problematic. This commit, despite
generating the interface for the Zig user to be able to tell the compile
which format is wanted, is just implemented for the LLVM backend, so
clang and the self-hosted backends will need this to be implemented in a
future commit.
This is an effort to work around #7962, since the emission of the 64-bit
format automatically produces 64-bit relocations. Further investigation
will be needed to make DWARF 32-bit format to emit bigger relocations
when needed and not make the linker angry.
When using llvm opaque pointers, typed pointers and pointer bitcasts are
no longer needed. This also avoids needing packed struct layouts that
are nested inside pointers, letting us avoid computing struct layouts
in Sema that could cause unnecessary dependency loops.
This commit changes the way Zig is intended to deal with variable
declaration for exotic targets. Where previously the idea was to
enfore local/global variables to be placed into their respective
address spaces, depending on the target, this is now fixed to the
generic address space.
To facilitate this for targets where local variables _must_ be
generated into a specific address space (ex. amdgcn where locals
must be generated into the private address space), the variable
allocations (alloca) are generated into the right address space
and then addrspace-casted back to the generic address space. While this
could be less efficient in theory, LLVM will hopefull deal with figuring
out the actual correct address space for a pointer for us. HIP seems to
do the same thing in this regard.
Global variables are handled in a similar way.
These const qualifiers on pointers to opaque types do not serve any
purpose. If anything they are misleading since the underlying pointers
very likely point to objects that are in fact mutated.
This commit does not change any behavior.
This bug manifested as a segfault in stage1 when calling this function.
The C++ code looks like this:
```c++
entry->llvm_di_type = ZigLLVMCreateDebugForwardDeclType(g->dbuilder,
ZigLLVMTag_DW_structure_type(), full_name,
import ? ZigLLVMFileToScope(import->data.structure.root_struct->di_file) : nullptr,
import ? import->data.structure.root_struct->di_file : nullptr,
line);
```
There is actually no problem here - what happened is that because
cross-language LTO was enabled between zig and c++ code, and because
Zig annotated the file parameter (3rd line) as being non-null, the C++
code assumed that parameter could not be null, and eagerly dereferenced
`import->...`, causing a segfault, since it was null.
I verified that this commit fixed the problem and I also verified this
hypothesis by disabling LTO and noticing that it indeed avoided the
problem.
As part of the Opaque Pointers upgrade documentation, LLVM says that the
function LLVMGetGEPSourceElementType() can be used to obtain element
type information in lieu of LLVMGetElementType(), however, this function
actually returns the struct type, not the field type. The GEP
instruction does store the information we need, however, this is not
exposed in the C API. It seems like they accidentally exposed the wrong
field, because one would never need the struct type since one must
already pass it directly to the GEP instruction, so one will always have
it handy, whereas one will usually not have the field type handy.
Previously, the Zig ABI size and LLVM ABI size of these types disagreed
sometimes. This code also corrects the logging messages to not trigger
LLVM assertions.
Rather than lowering float negation as `0.0 - x`.
* Add AIR instruction for float negation.
* Add compiler-rt functions for f128, f80 negation
closes#11853
llvm: dump failed module when -femit-llvm-ir set
print_air:
* print fully qualified name
* use Type.fmt and Value.fmtValue, fmtDebug is useless
TypedValue
* handle anon structs and tuples
* fix bugs
The previous implementation of calling conventions was hacky and broken.
This commit reworks lowerFnParamTy into iterateParamTypes which returns
enum tags indicating how to handle each parameter. This is then used in
the three places that matter:
* lowering a function type to llvm type
* converting function parameters to the canonical type representation
(with respect to isByRef).
* converting canonical type representation to function arguments at
callsites (again with respect to isByRef).
As a result, we are one step closer to the C ABI tests passing. Before
this commit, attempting to build them crashed the compiler. I isolated
the broken function and verified that it now is lowered correctly. I
will keep working on this one piece at a time until all the C ABI tests
pass, and then I will enable all of them in the CI.
So far it's supported by the LLVM backend only. I recommend for the
other backends to wait for the resolution of #10761 before adding
support for this feature.
* std.math.snan: fix compilation error. Also make it and nan inline.
* LLVM: use a proper enum type for float op instead of enum literal.
Also various cleanups.
* LLVM: use LLVMBuildVectorSplat for vector splat AIR instruction.
- also the bindings had parameter order wrong
* LLVM: additionally handle f16 lowering. For now all targets report OK
but I think we will need to add some exceptions to this list.
Updates stage2 to manually lower softfloat operations for all unary
floating point operations and arithmetic.
Softfloat support still needs to be added for conversion operators
(float<->float and int<->float)
Notably, Value.eql and Value.hash are improved to treat NaN as equal to
itself, so that Type/Value can be hash map keys. Likewise float hashing
normalizes the float value before computing the hash.
LLVM backend: generate DIGlobalVariable's for non-function globals and
rename linkage names when exporting functions and globals.
zig_llvm.cpp: add some wrappers to convert a handful of DI classes
into DINode's since DIGlobalVariable is not a DIScope like the others.
zig_llvm.cpp: add some wrappers to allow replacing the LinkageName of
DISubprogram and DIGlobalVariable.
zig_llvm.cpp: fix DI class mixup causing nonsense reinterpret_cast.
The end result is that GDB is now usable since you now no longer need
to manually cast every global nor fully qualify every export.
