GenZir struct now has rl_ty_inst field which tracks the result location
type (if any) a block expects all of its results to be coerced to.
Remove a redundant coercion on const local initialization with a
specified type.
Switch expressions, during elision of store_to_block_ptr instructions,
now re-purpose them to be type coercion when the block has a type in the
result location.
* use the proper result location strategy even when there are noreturn
prongs in the switch expression
* when using break_operand strategy, actually omit the
store_to_block_ptr instructions rather than eliding them.
* for both strategies, properly handle noreturn prongs.
The switch_br ZIR instructions are now switch_block instructions. This
avoids a pointless block always surrounding a switchbr in emitted ZIR
code.
Introduce typeof_elem ZIR instruction for getting the type of the
element of a pointer value in 1 instruction.
Change typeof to be un_node, not un_tok.
Introduce switch_capture ZIR instructions for obtaining the capture
value of switch prongs.
Introduce Sema.resolveBody for when you want to extract a *Inst out of a
block and you know that there is only going to be 1 break from it.
What's not working yet: AstGen does not correctly elide
store instructions when it turns out that the result location does not
need to be used as a pointer.
Also Sema validation code for duplicate switch items is not yet
implemented.
The logic for putting ranges into the else prong is moved from AstGen to
Sema. However, logic to emit multi-items the same as single-items cannot
be done until TZIR supports mapping multiple items to the same block of
code. This will be simple to represent when we do the upcoming TZIR memory
layout changes.
Not yet implemented in this commit is the validation of duplicate
values. The trick is going to be emitting error messages with accurate
source locations, without adding extra source nodes to the ZIR
switch instruction.
This will be done by computing the respective AST node based on the
switch node (which we do have available), only when a compile error
occurs and we need to know the source location to attach the message to.
Here's what I think the ZIR should be. AstGen is not yet implemented to
match this, and the main implementation of analyzeSwitch in Sema is not
yet implemented to match it either.
Here are some example byte size reductions from master branch, with the
ZIR memory layout from this commit:
```
switch (foo) {
a => 1,
b => 2,
c => 3,
d => 4,
}
```
184 bytes (master) => 40 bytes (this branch)
```
switch (foo) {
a, b => 1,
c..d, e, f => 2,
g => 3,
else => 4,
}
```
240 bytes (master) => 80 bytes (this branch)
This makes a few changes to the base64 codecs.
* The padding character is optional. The common "URL-safe" variant, in
particular, is generally not used with padding. This is also the case for
password hashes, so having this will avoid code duplication with bcrypt,
scrypt and other functions.
* The URL-safe variant is added. Instead of having individual constants
for each parameter of each variant, we are now grouping these in a
struct. So, `standard_pad_char` just becomes `standard.pad_char`.
* Types are not `snake_case`'d any more. So, `standard_encoder` becomes
`standard.Encoder`, as it is a type.
* Creating a decoder with ignored characters required the alphabet and
padding. Now, `standard.decoderWithIgnore(<ignored chars>)` returns a
decoder with the standard parameters and the set of ignored chars.
* Whatever applies to `standard.*` obviously also works with `url_safe.*`
* the `calcSize()` interface was inconsistent, taking a length in the
encoder, and a slice in the encoder. Rename the variant that takes a
slice to `calcSizeForSlice()`.
* In the decoder with ignored characters, add `calcSizeUpperBound()`,
which is more useful than the one that takes a slice in order to size
a fixed buffer before we have the data.
* Return `error.InvalidCharacter` when the input actually contains
characters that are neither padding nor part of the alphabet. If we
hit a padding issue (which includes extra bits at the end),
consistently return `error.InvalidPadding`.
* Don't keep the `char_in_alphabet` array permanently in a decoder;
it is only required for sanity checks during initialization.
* Tests are unchanged, but now cover both the standard (padded) and
the url-safe (non-padded) variants.
* Add an error set, rename `OutputTooSmallError` to `NoSpaceLeft`
to match the `hex2bin` equivalent.
Also fixed abiAlignment - for pointers it was returning the abi
alignment inside the type, rather than of the pointer itself. There is
now `ptrAlignment` for getting the alignment inside the type of
pointers.
* zir.Code: introduce a decls array. This is so that `decl_val` and
`decl_ref` instructions can refer to a Decl with a u32 and therefore
they can also store a source location. This is needed for proper
compile error reporting.
* astgen uses a hash map to avoid redundantly adding a Decl to the
decls array.
* fixed reporting "instruction illegal outside function body" instead
of the desired message "unable to resolve comptime value".
* astgen skips emitting dbg_stmt instructions in comptime scopes.
* astgen has some logic to avoid adding unnecessary type coercion
instructions for common values.
Introduce "inline" variants of ZIR tags:
* block => block_inline
* repeat => repeat_inline
* break => break_inline
* condbr => condbr_inline
The inline variants perform control flow at compile-time, and they
utilize the return value of `Sema.analyzeBody`.
`analyzeBody` now returns an Index, not a Ref, which is the ZIR index of
a break instruction. This effectively communicates both the intended
break target block as well as the operand, allowing parent blocks to
find out whether they, in turn, should return the break instruction up the
call stack, or accept the operand as the block's result and continue
analyzing instructions in the block.
Additionally:
* removed the deprecated ZIR tag `block_comptime`.
* removed `break_void_node` so that all break instructions use the same Data.
* zir.Code: remove the `root_start` and `root_len` fields. There is now
implied to be a block at index 0 for the root body. This is so that
`break_inline` has something to point at and we no longer need the
special instruction `break_flat`.
* implement source location byteOffset() for .node_offset_if_cond
.node_offset_for_cond is probably redundant and can be deleted.
We don't have `comptime var` supported yet, so this commit adds a test
that at least makes sure the condition is required to be comptime known
for `inline while`.
* Module.addBreak and addBreakVoid return zir.Inst.Index not Ref
because Index is the simpler type and we never need a Ref for these.
* astgen: make noreturn stuff return the unreachable_value and avoid
unnecessary calls to rvalue()
* breakExpr: avoid unnecessary access into the tokens array
* breakExpr: fix incorrect `@intCast` (previously this unsafely
casted an Index to a Ref)
