* std.os: take advantage of `@minimum`. It's probably time to
deprecate `std.min` and `std.max`.
* New AIR instructions: min and max
* Introduce SIMD vector support to stage2
* Add `@Type` support for vectors
* Sema: add `checkSimdBinOp` which can be re-used for other arithmatic
operators that want to support vectors.
* Implement coercion from vectors to arrays.
- In backends this is handled with bitcast for vector to array,
however maybe we want to reduce the amount of branching by
introducing an explicit AIR instruction for it in the future.
* LLVM backend: implement lowering vector types
* Sema: Implement `slice.ptr` at comptime
* Value: improve `numberMin` and `numberMax` to support floats in
addition to integers, and make them behave properly in the presence
of NaN.
* work around a stage1 miscompilation leading to the wrong integer
comparison predicate being emitted.
* fix the bug of not annotating callsites with the calling convention
of the callee, leading to undefined behavior.
* add the `nobuiltin` attribute when building freestanding libc or
compiler_rt libraries to prevent e.g. memcpy from being "optimized"
into a call to itself.
* compiler-rt: change a call to be comptime to make the generated LLVM
IR simpler and easier to study.
I still can't enable the widening tests due to the compiler-rt compare
function being miscompiled in some not-yet-diagnosed way.
libc requires this to use `long double` which is sometimes the same as
f128, sometimes not.
Also for an unknown reason, aarch64 is getting an invalid result for the
`@mulAdd` behavior test for f128. See #9900.
* move fmaq from freestanding libc to compiler_rt, unconditionally
exported weak_odr.
* stage1: add fmaf, fmal, fmaq as symbols that compiler-rt might
generate calls to.
* stage1: lower `@mulAdd` directly to a call to `fmaq` instead of to
the LLVM intrinsic because LLVM will lower it to `fmal` even when the
target's `long double` is not equivalent to `f128`.
This commit is intended to fix the test suite which is failing on the
previous commit.
std: add f128 implementations of fma, frexp, and ilogb. Expose `fmal` in
zig's freestanding libc. This makes `@mulAdd` work correctly for f128.
Fixes a CI regression from yesterday, where I added a usage of f128
`@mulAdd` into the self-hosted compiler.
Before, Sema for comptime `@bitCast` would return the same Value but
change the Type. This gave invalid results because, for example, an
integer Value when the Type is a float would be interpreted numerically,
but `@bitCast` needs it to reinterpret how they would be stored in
memory.
This requires a mechanism to serialize a Value to a byte buffer and
deserialize a Value from a byte buffer.
Not done yet, but needs to happen: comptime dereferencing a pointer
to a Decl needs to perform a comptime bitcast on the loaded value.
Currently the value is silently wrong in the same way that `@bitCast`
was silently wrong before this commit.
The logic in Value for handling readFromMemory for large integers is
only correct for small integers. It needs to be fleshed out for proper
big integers.
As part of this change:
* std.math.big.Int: initial implementations of readTwosComplement and
writeTwosComplement. They only support bit_count <= 128 so far and
panic otherwise.
* compiler-rt: move the compareXf2 exports over to the stage2 section.
Even with the improvements in this commit, I'm still seeing test
failures in the widening behavior tests; more investigation is
needed.
This function can be used to initialize a big integer to either the upper
or lower limit of a 2s-complement integer. Note that the result is still
in sign-magnitude representation, though in order to convert it into twos
complement all one has to do is take the absolute value.
lladd is now implemented in terms of lladdcarry, which returns the carry limb.
Similarly, llsub is implemented using llsubcarry, which returns the borrow limb.
