When Sema sees a store_node instruction, it now checks for
the possibility of this pattern:
%a = ret_ptr
%b = store(%a, %c)
Where %c is an error union. In such case we need to add to the
current function's inferred error set, if any.
Coercion from error union to error union will be handled ideally if the
operand is comptime known. In such case it does the appropriate
unwrapping, then wraps again.
In the future, coercion from error union to error union should do the
same thing for a runtime value; emitting a runtime branch to check if
the value is an error or not.
`Value.arrayLen` for structs returns the number of fields. This is so
that Liveness can use it for the `vector_init` instruction (soon to be
renamed to `aggregate_init`).
`const` declarations inside comptime blocks were not getting properly
evaluated at compile-time. To accomplish this there is a new ZIR
instruction, `alloc_inferred_comptime`. Actually we already had one
named that, but it got renamed to `alloc_inferred_comptime_mut` to match
the naming convention with the other similar instructions.
* pass air_tag instead of zir_tag
* also pass eval function so that the branch only happens once and the
body of zirUnaryMath is simplified
* Value.sqrt: update to handle f80 and f128 in the normalized way that
includes handling c_longdouble.
Semi-related change: fix incorrect sqrt builtin name for f80 in stage1.
Support for f128, comptime_float, and c_longdouble require improvements
to compiler_rt and will implemented in a later PR. Some of the code in
this commit could be made more generic, for instance `llvm.airSqrt`
could probably be `llvm.airUnaryMath`, but let's cross that
bridge when we get to it.
AstGen: Fixed bug where f80 types in source were triggering illegal
behavior.
Value: handle f80 in floating point arithmetic functions.
Value: implement floatRem and floatMod
This commit introduces dependencies on compiler-rt that are not
implemented. Those are a prerequisite to merging this branch.
For example, a situation like this is allowed
```zig
extern "c" var stderrp: c_int;
```
In this case, `Module.Var` wrapping `stderrp` will have `lib_name`
populated with the library name where this import is expected.
`ExternFn` will contain a maybe-lib-name if it was defined with
the `extern` keyword like so
```zig
extern "c" fn write(usize, usize, usize) usize;
```
`lib_name` will live as long as `ExternFn` decl does.
fieldVal handles pointer to pointer to array. This can happen for
example, if a pointer to an array is used as the condition expression of
a for loop.
resolveStructFully handles tuples (by doing nothing).
fixed Type comparison for tuples to handle comptime fields properly.
* resolve_inferred_alloc now gives a proper mutability attribute to the
corresponding alloc instruction. Previously, it would fail to mark
things const.
* slicing: fix the detection for when the end index equals the length
of the underlying object. Previously it was using `end - start` but
it should just use the end index directly. It also takes into account
when slicing a comptime-known slice.
* `Type.sentinel`: fix not handling all slice tags
* comptime known 0 as a numerator returns comptime 0 independent of
denominator.
* negative numerator and denominator are allowed when the remainder is
zero because that means the modulus would be also zero.
* organize math behavior tests
Takes advantage of the pattern already established with
array_init_anon. Also upgrades array_init (non-anon) to the pattern.
Implements comptime struct value equality and pointer value hashing.
AstGen:
* rename the known_has_bits flag to known_non_opv to make it better
reflect what it actually means.
* add a known_comptime_only flag.
* make the flags take advantage of identifiers of primitives and the
fact that zig has no shadowing.
* correct the known_non_opv flag for function bodies.
Sema:
* Rename `hasCodeGenBits` to `hasRuntimeBits` to better reflect what it
does.
- This function got a bit more complicated in this commit because of
the duality of function bodies: on one hand they have runtime bits,
but on the other hand they require being comptime known.
* WipAnonDecl now takes a LazySrcDecl parameter and performs the type
resolutions that it needs during finish().
* Implement comptime `@ptrToInt`.
Codegen:
* Improved handling of lowering decl_ref; make it work for
comptime-known ptr-to-int values.
- This same change had to be made many different times; perhaps we
should look into merging the implementations of `genTypedValue`
across x86, arm, aarch64, and riscv.
This commit updates stage2 to enforce the property that the syntax
`fn()void` is a function *body* not a *pointer*. To get a pointer, the
syntax `*const fn()void` is required.
ZIR puts function alignment into the func instruction rather than the
decl because this way it makes it into function types. LLVM backend
respects function alignments.
Struct and Union have methods `fieldSrcLoc` to help look up source
locations of their fields. These trigger full loading, tokenization, and
parsing of source files, so should only be called once it is confirmed
that an error message needs to be printed.
There are some nice new error hints for explaining why a type is
required to be comptime, particularly for structs that contain function
body types.
`Type.requiresComptime` is now moved into Sema because it can fail and
might need to trigger field type resolution. Comptime pointer loading
takes into account types that do not have a well-defined memory layout
and does not try to compute a byte offset for them.
`fn()void` syntax no longer secretly makes a pointer. You get a function
body type, which requires comptime. However a pointer to a function body
can be runtime known (obviously).
Compile errors that report "expected pointer, found ..." are factored
out into convenience functions `checkPtrOperand` and `checkPtrType` and
have a note about function pointers.
Implemented `Value.hash` for functions, enum literals, and undefined values.
stage1 is not updated to this (yet?), so some workarounds and disabled
tests are needed to keep everything working. Should we update stage1 to
these new type semantics? Yes probably because I don't want to add too
much conditional compilation logic in the std lib for the different
backends.
To generate better code for tuples, we detect a tuple operand in
storePtr, and analyze field loads and stores directly. This avoids
an extra allocation + memcpy which would occur if we used `coerce`.
* AIR instruction vector_init gains the ability to init arrays and
tuples in addition to vectors. This will probably also gain the
ability to initialize structs and be renamed to `aggregate_init`.
* AstGen prefers to use an `anon_array_init` ZIR instruction for
local variables when the init expr is an array literal and there is
no type.
In the behavior test listings, I had to move type_info.zig test import
to a section that did not include the x86 backend because it got to the
point where adding another test to the file, even if it was an empty
test that just returned immediately, caused a runtime failure when
executing the test binary.
Anyway, type info for opaques is implemented, and the declarations slice
is shared between it, enums, and unions.
Still TODO is the `data` field of a `Declaration`. I want to consider
removing it from the data returned from `@typeInfo` and introducing
`@declInfo` or similar for this data. This would avoid the complexity of
a lazy mechanism.
This reverts commit d48e4245b68bf25c7f41804a5012ac157a5ee546.
I have no idea why this is failing Drone CI, but in a branch, reverting
this commit solved the problem.
The ZIR instructions `switch_capture_else` and `switch_capture_ref` are
removed because they are not needed. Instead, the prong index is set to
max int for the special prong.
Else prong with error sets is not handled yet.
Adds a new behavior test because there was not a prior on to cover only
the capture value of else on a switch.
Previously, breaking from an outer block at comptime would result in
incorrect control flow. Now there is a mechanism, `error.ComptimeBreak`,
similar to `error.ComptimeReturn`, to send comptime control flow further
up the stack, to its matching block.
This commit also introduces a new log scope. To use it, pass
`--debug-log sema_zir` and you will see 1 line per ZIR instruction
semantically analyzed. This is useful when you want to understand what
comptime control flow is doing while debugging the compiler.
One more `switch` test case is passing.
Introduce `validate_array_init_comptime`, similar to
`validate_struct_init_comptime` introduced in
713d2a9b3883942491b40738245232680877cc66.
`zirValidateArrayInit` is improved to detect comptime array literals and
emit AIR accordingly. This code is very similar to the changes
introduced in that same commit for `zirValidateStructInit`.
The C backend needed some improvements to continue passing the same set
of tests:
* `resolveInst` for arrays now will add a local `static const` with the
array value and so then `elem_val` instructions reference that local.
It memoizes accesses using `value_map`, which is changed to use
`Air.Inst.Ref` as the key rather than `Air.Inst.Index`.
* This required a mechanism for writing to a "header" which is lines
that appear at the beginning of a function body, before everything
else.
* dbg_stmt output comments rather than `#line` directives.
TODO comment reproduced here:
We need to re-evaluate whether to emit these or not. If we naively emit
these directives, the output file will report bogus line numbers because
every newline after the #line directive adds one to the line.
We also don't print the filename yet, so the output is strictly unhelpful.
If we wanted to go this route, we would need to go all the way and not output
newlines until the next dbg_stmt occurs.
Perhaps an additional compilation option is in order?
`Value.elemValue` is improved to support `elem_ptr` values.
