Previously, this code casted the array pointer to u8 pointer, but I
removed that in a different commit. This commit restores the cast, but
instead of hard-coding u8, it uses the destination element pointer,
since memset now supports arbitrary element types.
* Sema: upgrade operands to array pointers if possible when emitting
AIR.
* Implement safety checks for length mismatch and aliasing.
* AIR: make ptrtoint support slice operands. Implement in LLVM backend.
* C backend: implement new `@memset` semantics. `@memcpy` is not done
yet.
Now they use slices or array pointers with any element type instead of
requiring byte pointers.
This is a breaking enhancement to the language.
The safety check for overlapping pointers will be implemented in a
future commit.
closes#14040
addition to #15450
createFileW does not account for failure on `LockFile`. This can result
in a file handle not being closed on failure which can be seen on test
such as `fs.test.'open file with exclusive nonblocking lock twice'`.
This reverts commit c75e11bf6aa67f2ca62b9b6677d134592777bfec.
Caused this problem on some machines:
"this step declares an upper bound of 9126805504 bytes of memory,
exceeding the available 7515721728 bytes of memory".
Instead the next commit will disable std lib tests with the C backend on
Windows.
I observed clang taking 8G to compile the output from the std lib tests
using the C backend. This commit should make the Windows CI stop failing
due to OOM.
Before this change, if a request errored before getting its `response.headers` initialized, then it would attempt to `deinit` `response.headers` which would still be `undefined`. Since all locations that set `response.headers` use the same code, it can just be done upfront in `request` instead.
Closes#15380
* docs(std.math): elaborate on difference between absCast and absInt
* docs(std.rand.Random.weightedIndex): elaborate on likelihood
I think this makes it easier to understand.
* langref: add small reminder
* docs(std.fs.path.extension): brevity
* docs(std.bit_set.StaticBitSet): mention the specific types
* std.debug.TTY: explain what purpose this struct serves
This should also make it clearer that this struct is not supposed to provide unrelated terminal manipulation functionality such as setting the cursor position or something because terminals are complicated and we should keep this struct simple and focused on debugging.
* langref(package listing): brevity
* langref: explain what exactly `threadlocal` causes to happen
* std.array_list: link between swapRemove and orderedRemove
Maybe this can serve as a TLDR and make it easier to decide.
* PrefetchOptions.locality: clarify docs that this is a range
This confused me previously and I thought I can only use either 0 or 3.
* fix typos and more
* std.builtin.CallingConvention: document some CCs
* langref: explain possibly cryptic names
I think it helps knowing what exactly these acronyms (@clz and @ctz) and
abbreviations (@popCount) mean.
* variadic function error: add missing preposition
* std.fmt.format docs: nicely hyphenate
* help menu: say what to optimize for
I think this is slightly more specific than just calling it
"optimizations". These are speed optimizations. I used the word
"performance" here.
- Add an example of iterating over consecutive integers using the
range syntax
- Add an example of iterating over multiple objects
- Update the "nested break" and "nested continue" tests to use the
range syntax, instead of a temporary array
