This check for primitives is already handled by the generic logic that
checks if the body ends up being empty. I kept this commit in the git
history in case we ever want that nodePrimitive function again in the
future, it might be useful.
The main purpose of this commit is to prepare to implement support for
callconv(), align(), linksection(), and addrspace() annotations on
generic functions where the provided expression depends on comptime
parameters (making the function generic).
It's a rather involved change, so this commit only makes the necessary
changes to AstGen without regressing any behavior, and a follow-up
commit can finish the task by making the enhancements to Sema.
By my quick estimation, the new encoding for functions is a negligible
improvement - along the lines of 0.005% fewer total ZIR bytes on
average. Still, it's nice that this commit, while adding more
data into ZIR, actually ends up reducing the storage size thanks to a
slightly more sophisticated encoding.
Zir.Inst.ExtendedFunc is renamed to Zir.Inst.FuncFancy to eliminate
confusion about it being an extended instruction (it used to be but is
no longer). The encoding for this instruction is completely reworked.
The encoding for Zir.Inst.Func is also changed slightly - when the
return type body length is 1, then only a Zir.Inst.Ref is provided; not
a full body.
linksection() and addrspace() are now communicated via func_fancy ZIR
instruction rather than as part of the corresponding decl. This allows
their expressions to observe comptime parameters.
Prior to this change, for an example compiler error test case with
multiple identical errors messages such as
```
:1:2: error: foo
:1:2: error: foo
```
the test harness would never increment the error index thus only
marking the very first error message as handled yielding a false
positive.
Additionally, while here, regress `dereference_anyopaque` test case
as not passing on `wasm32-wasi` target.
SPARC does not have an explicit notion of saving/restoring registers.
The usual windowing mechanism (save/restore/return) already takes care of that
for us.
Additionally:
* Sema: fix array cat/mul not setting the sentinel value
- This required an LLVM backend enhancement to the handling of the
AIR instruction aggregate_init that likely needs to be
propagated to the other backends.
* Sema: report integer overflow of array concatenation in a proper
compile error instead of crashing.
* Sema: fix not using proper pointer address space for array cat/mul
With this change, we are now correctly lowering `sub_with_overflow`
for signed and unsigned integers of register-sized integers (32-
or 64-bit precisely). We also match LLVM's behavior and so, the
condition flags we now set are:
* unsigned:
- `add_with_overflow`: `hs`/`cs` (carry set)
- `sub_with_overflow`: `lo`/`cc` (carry clear)
* signed:
- `add_with_overflow`/`sub_with_overflow`: `vs` (overflow)
This is needed because pointers to zero-bit types are not necessarily
comptime known, but when doing a load, only the element type having one
possible value is relevant.
* `?E` where E is an error set with only one field now lowers the same
as `bool`.
* Fix implementation of errUnionErrOffset and errUnionPayloadOffset to
properly compute the offset of each field. Also name them the same
as the corresponding LLVM functions and have the same function
signature, to avoid confusion. This fixes a bug where wasm was
passing the error union type instead of the payload type.
* Fix C backend handling of optionals with zero-bit payload types.
* C backend: separate out airOptionalPayload and airOptionalPayloadPtr
which reduces branching and cleans up control flow.
* Make Type.isNoReturn return true for error sets with no fields.
* Make `?error{}` have only one possible value (null).
Based on the size of the payload the native backends will lower
the error union with its fields (errorset & payload) in the correct order.
e.g. ErrorA!u8 will first lower the error set's value and then the payload.
In the event of ErrorA!u32 will lower the payload first.
* Sema: avoid unnecessary safety checks when an error set is empty.
* Sema: make zirErrorToInt handle comptime errors that are represented
as integers.
* Sema: make empty error sets properly integrate with
typeHasOnePossibleValue.
* Type: correct the ABI alignment and size of error unions which have
both zero-bit error set and zero-bit payload. The previous code did
not account for the fact that we still need to store a bit for
whether there is an error.
* LLVM: lower error unions possibly with the payload first or with the
error code first, depending on alignment. Previously it always put
the error code first and used a padding array.
* LLVM: lower functions which have an empty error set as the return
type the same as anyerror, so that they can be used where
fn()anyerror function pointers are expected. In such functions, Zig
will lower ret to returning zero instead of void.
As a result, one more behavior test is passing.
This is a temporary addition to stage2 in order to match stage1 behavior,
however the end-game once the lang spec is settled will be to use a global
InternPool for comptime memoized objects, making this behavior consistent
across all types, not only string literals. Or, we might decide to not
guarantee string literals to have equal comptime pointers, in which case
this commit can be reverted.
