* AstGen: restore the param_type ZIR instruction and pass it to the
expression for function call arguments. This does not solve the
problem for generic function parameters, but it catches stage2 up to
stage1 which also does not solve the problem for generic function
parameters.
- Most of the enhancements in this commit will still be needed for a
more sophisticated further improvement to handle generic function
types.
- In Sema, handling of `as` coercion recognizes the `var_args_param`
Type Tag and passes the operand through doing no coercion.
- That was the last ZIR tag and we are now using all 256 ZIR tags.
* AstGen: array init and struct init expressions use the anon form even
when the result location has a type. Prevents the type system
incorrectly believing, for example, that a tuple is actually an array
when the result location is a param_type of a function with `anytype`
parameter.
* Sema: add missing coercion in `unionInit` to coerce the init to the
corresponding union field type.
* `Value.fieldValue` now takes a type and does not take an allocator.

After this commit, stage2 passes all the parser tests.
Closures are not necessarily constant values. For example, Zig
code might do something like this:
fn foo(x: anytype) void {
const S = struct {field: @TypeOf(x)};
}
...in which case the closure_capture instruction has access to a
runtime value only. In such case we preserve the type and use a
dummy runtime value.
closes#11292
This also fixes a bug that I didn't see causing any problems yet in
generic function instantiation where it would read from a GetOrPutResult
too late.
Also it delays full resolution of generic function type parameters until
after the function body is finished being analyzed.
closes#11291
The code for detecting when a local const initialization expression
ended up being comptime-known gave up when it encountered dbg_stmt
instructions, but such instructions are not supposed to matter.
* std.meta: correct use of `default_value` in reification. stage1
accepted a wrong type for `null`.
* Sema: after instantiating a generic function, if the return type ends
up being a comptime-known type, then we return an error, undoing the
generic function instantiation, and making a comptime function call
instead.
- We also needed to clean up the dependency graph in this case.
* Sema: reified enums set tag_ty_inferred to false since an integer tag
type is provided. This is a limitation of the `@Type` builtin which
will be addressed with #10710.
* Sema: fix resolveInferredErrorSet incorrectly calling
ensureFuncBodyAnalyzed on generic functions.
That happens after a function body is analyzed. This prevents circular
dependency compile errors and yet a way to mark types that need to be
fully resolved before a given function is sent to the codegen backend.
The runtime behavior allowed this in both stage1 and stage2, but stage1
fails with index out of bounds during comptime. This behavior makes
sense to support, and comptime behavior should match runtime behavior. I
implement this fix only in stage2.
We were enforcing bounds on the index of an elem_ptr in pointerDeref,
but we want to support out-of-bounds accesses by reinterpreting memory.
This removes that check, so that the deref falls back to bitcasting, as
usual.
This was masked by another bug that was forcing bitcasts incorrectly,
which is why this wasn't noticed earlier.
Sema.pointerDeref() assumes that elem_ptrs have been "flattened" when
they were created, so that you an elem_ptr will never be the array_ptr
of another elem_ptr when they share the same type.
Value.elemPtr does this already, but a couple of places in Sema were
bypassing this logic.
This flag is used when building stage1 to omit the stage2 backends from
the compiler to save memory on the CI server. It regressed with the
merging of e8813b296bc55a13b534bd9b2a03e1f6af366915 because Value
functions started calling into Sema functions.
The end goal for this build option is to eliminate it.
This commit adds a new optional argument to several Value methods which
provides the ability to resolve types if it comes to it. This prevents
having duplicated logic inside both Sema and Value.
With this commit, the "struct contains slice of itself" test is passing
by exploiting the new lazy_align Value Tag.
Also update std/build.zig to use stage2 function pointer semantics.
This gets us a little bit closer to `zig build` working, although it is
now hitting a new crash in the compiler.
Made most `Value` functions require a `Type`. If the provided type is a
vector, then automatically vectorize the operation and return with
another vector. The Sema side can then automatically become vectorized
with minimal changes. There are already a few manually vectorized
instructions, but we can simplify those later.
The existing `cmp_*` instructions get their result type from `lhs`, but
vector comparison will always return a vector of bools with only the
length derived from its operands. This necessitates the creation of a
new AIR instruction.
