* 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.
* apply late symbol resolution for globals - instead of resolving
the exact location of a symbol in locals, globals or undefs,
we postpone the exact resolution until we have a full picture
for relocation resolution.
* fixup stubs to defined symbols - this is currently a hack rather
than a final solution. I'll need to work out the details to make
it more approachable. Currently, we preemptively create a stub
for a lazy bound global and fix up stub offsets in stub helper
routine if the global turns out to be undefined only. This is quite
wasteful in terms of space as we create stub, stub helper and lazy ptr
atoms but don't use them for defined globals.
* change log scope to .link for macho.
* remove redundant code paths from Object and Atom.
* drastically simplify the contents of Relocation struct (i.e., it is
now a simple superset of macho.relocation_info), clean up relocation
parsing and resolution logic.
* Add AIR instructions: ret_ptr, ret_load
- This allows Sema to be blissfully unaware of the backend's decision
to implement by-val/by-ref semantics for struct/union/array types.
Backends can lower these simply as alloc, load, ret instructions,
or they can take advantage of them to use a result pointer.
* Add AIR instruction: array_elem_val
- Allows for better codegen for `Sema.elemVal`.
* Implement calculation of ABI alignment and ABI size for unions.
* Before appending the following AIR instructions to a block,
resolveTypeLayout is called on the type:
- call - return type
- ret - return type
- store_ptr - elem type
* Sema: fix memory leak in `zirArrayInit` and other cleanups to this
function.
* x86_64: implement the full x86_64 C ABI according to the spec
* Type: implement `intInfo` for error sets.
* Type: implement `intTagType` for tagged unions.
The Zig type tag `Fn` is now used exclusively for function bodies.
Function pointers are modeled as `*const T` where `T` is a `Fn` type.
* The `call` AIR instruction now allows a function pointer operand as
well as a function operand.
* Sema now has a coercion from function body to function pointer.
* Function type syntax, e.g. `fn()void`, now returns zig tag type of
Pointer with child Fn, rather than Fn directly.
- I think this should probably be reverted. Will discuss the lang
specs before doing this. Idea being that function pointers would
need to be specified as `*const fn()void` rather than `fn() void`.
LLVM backend:
* Enable calling the panic handler (previously this just
emitted `@breakpoint()` since the backend could not handle the panic
function).
* Implement sret
* Introduce `isByRef` and implement it for structs and arrays. Types
that are `isByRef` are now passed as pointers to functions, and e.g.
`elem_val` will return a pointer instead of doing a load.
* Move the function type creating code from `resolveLlvmFunction` to
`llvmType` where it belongs; now there is only 1 instance of this
logic instead of two.
* Add the `nonnull` attribute to non-optional pointer parameters.
* Fix `resolveGlobalDecl` not using fully-qualified names and not using
the `decl_map`.
* Implement `genTypedValue` for pointer-like optionals.
* Fix memory leak when lowering `block` instruction and OOM occurs.
* Implement volatile checks where relevant.
Also improve the LLVM backend to support lowering bigints to LLVM
values.
Moves over a bunch of math.zig test cases to the "passing for stage2"
section.
* Remove the builtins `@addWithSaturation`, `@subWithSaturation`,
`@mulWithSaturation`, and `@shlWithSaturation` now that we have
first-class syntax for saturating arithmetic.
* langref: Clarify the behavior of `@shlExact`.
* Ast: rename `bit_shift_left` to `shl` and `bit_shift_right` to `shr`
for consistency.
* Air: rename to include underscore separator with consistency with
the rest of the ops.
* Air: add shl_exact instruction
* Use non-extended tags for saturating arithmetic, to keep it
simple so that all the arithmetic operations can be done the same
way.
- Sema: unify analyzeArithmetic with analyzeSatArithmetic
- implement comptime `+|`, `-|`, and `*|`
- allow float operands to saturating arithmetic
* `<<|` allows any integer type for the RHS.
* C backend: fix rebase conflicts
* LLVM backend: reduce the amount of branching for arithmetic ops
* zig.h: fix magic number not matching actual size of C integer types
- adds initial support for the operators +|, -|, *|, <<|, +|=, -|=, *|=, <<|=
- uses operators in addition to builtins in behavior test
- adds binOpExt() and assignBinOpExt() to AstGen.zig. these need to be audited
* AIR: add `mod` instruction for modulus division
- Implement for LLVM backend
* Sema: implement `@mod`, `@rem`, and `%`.
* Sema: fix comptime switch evaluation
* Sema: implement comptime shift left
* Sema: fix the logic inside analyzeArithmetic to handle all the
nuances between the different mathematical operations.
- Implement comptime wrapping operations
* AIR: add `get_union_tag` instruction
- implement in LLVM backend
* Sema: implement == and != for union and enum literal
- Also implement coercion from union to its own tag type
* Value: implement hashing for union values
The motivating example is this snippet:
comptime assert(@typeInfo(T) == .Float);
This was the next blocker for stage2 building compiler-rt.
Now it is switch at compile-time on an integer.
* AIR instructions struct_field_ptr and related functions now are also
emitted by the frontend for unions. Backends must inspect the type
of the pointer operand to lower the instructions correctly.
- These will be renamed to `agg_field_ptr` (short for "aggregate") in
the future.
* Introduce the new `set_union_tag` AIR instruction.
* Introduce `Module.EnumNumbered` and associated `Type` methods. This
is for enums which have no decls, but do have the possibility of
overriding the integer tag type and tag values.
* Sema: Implement support for union tag types in both the
auto-generated and explicitly-provided cases, as well as explicitly
provided enum tag values in union declarations.
* LLVM backend: implement lowering union types, union field pointer
instructions, and the new `set_union_tag` instruction.
* prepare compiler-rt to support being compiled by stage2
- put in a few minor workarounds that will be removed later, such as
using `builtin.stage2_arch` rather than `builtin.cpu.arch`.
- only try to export a few symbols for now - we'll move more symbols
over to the "working in stage2" section as they become functional
and gain test coverage.
- use `inline fn` at function declarations rather than `@call` with an
always_inline modifier at the callsites, to avoid depending on the
anonymous array literal syntax language feature (for now).
* AIR: replace floatcast instruction with fptrunc and fpext for
shortening and widening floating point values, respectively.
* Introduce a new ZIR instruction, `export_value`, which implements
`@export` for the case when the thing to be exported is a local
comptime value that points to a function.
- AstGen: fix `@export` not properly reporting ambiguous decl
references.
* Sema: handle ExportOptions linkage. The value is now available to all
backends.
- Implement setting global linkage as appropriate in the LLVM
backend. I did not yet inspect the LLVM IR, so this still needs to
be audited. There is already a pending task to make sure the alias
stuff is working as intended, and this is related.
- Sema almost handles section, just a tiny bit more code is needed in
`resolveExportOptions`.
* Sema: implement float widening and shortening for both `@floatCast`
and float coercion.
- Implement the LLVM backend code for this as well.
There were two things to resolve here:
* Snektron's branch edited Zir printing, but in master branch
I moved the printing code from Zir.zig to print_zir.zig. So that
just had to be moved over.
* In master branch I fleshed out coerceInMemory a bit more, which
caused one of Snektron's test cases to fail, so I had to add
addrspace awareness to that. Once I did that the tests passed again.
* introduce float_to_int and int_to_float AIR instructionts and
implement for the LLVM backend and C backend.
* Sema: implement `zirIntToFloat`.
* Sema: implement `@atomicRmw` comptime evaluation
- introduce `storePtrVal` for when one needs to store a Value to a
pointer which is a Value, and assert it happens at comptime.
* Value: introduce new functionality:
- intToFloat
- numberAddWrap
- numberSubWrap
- numberMax
- numberMin
- bitwiseAnd
- bitwiseNand (not implemented yet)
- bitwiseOr
- bitwiseXor
* Sema: hook up `zirBitwise` to the new Value bitwise implementations
* Type: rename `isFloat` to `isRuntimeFloat` because it returns `false`
for `comptime_float`.
* langref: add some more "see also" links for atomics
* Add the following AIR instructions
- atomic_load
- atomic_store_unordered
- atomic_store_monotonic
- atomic_store_release
- atomic_store_seq_cst
- atomic_rmw
* Implement those AIR instructions in LLVM and C backends.
* AstGen: make the `ty` result locations for `@atomicRmw`, `@atomicLoad`,
and `@atomicStore` be `coerced_ty` to avoid unnecessary ZIR
instructions when Sema will be doing the coercions redundantly.
* Sema for `@atomicLoad` and `@atomicRmw` is done, however Sema for
`@atomicStore` is not yet implemented.
- comptime eval for `@atomicRmw` is not yet implemented.
* Sema: flesh out `coerceInMemoryAllowed` a little bit more. It can now
handle pointers.
* Implement Sema for `@cmpxchgWeak` and `@cmpxchgStrong`. Both runtime
and comptime codepaths are implement.
* Implement Codegen for LLVM backend and C backend.
* Add LazySrcLoc.node_offset_builtin_call_argX 3...5
* Sema: rework comptime control flow.
- `error.ComptimeReturn` is used to signal that a comptime function
call has returned a result (stored in the Inlining struct).
`analyzeCall` notices this and handles the result.
- The ZIR instructions `break_inline`, `block_inline`,
`condbr_inline` are now redundant and can be deleted. `break`,
`block`, and `condbr` function equivalently inside a comptime scope.
- The ZIR instructions `loop` and `repeat` also are modified to
directly perform comptime control flow inside a comptime scope,
skipping an unnecessary mechanism for analysis of runtime code.
This makes Zig perform closer to an interpreter when evaluating
comptime code.
* Sema: zirRetErrValue looks at Sema.ret_fn_ty rather than sema.func
for adding to the inferred error set. This fixes a bug for
inlined/comptime function calls.
* Implement ZIR printing for cmpxchg.
* stage1: make cmpxchg respect --single-threaded
- Our LLVM C++ API wrapper failed to expose this boolean flag before.
* Fix AIR printing for struct fields showing incorrect liveness data.
In some cases (such as bitcast), an operand may be the same MCValue as
the result. If that operand died and was a register, it was freed by
processDeath. We have to "re-allocate" the register.
The big change in this commit is making `semaDecl` resolve the fields if
the Decl ends up being a struct or union. It needs to do this while
the `Sema` is still in scope, because it will have the resolved AIR
instructions that the field type expressions possibly reference. We do
this after the decl is populated and set to `complete` so that a `Decl`
may reference itself.
Everything else is fixes and improvements to make the test suite pass
again after making this change.
* New AIR instruction: `ptr_elem_ptr`
- Implemented for LLVM backend
* New Type tag: `type_info` which represents `std.builtin.TypeInfo`. It
is used by AstGen for the operand type of `@Type`.
* ZIR instruction `set_float_mode` uses `coerced_ty` to avoid
superfluous `as` instruction on operand.
* ZIR instruction `Type` uses `coerced_ty` to properly handle result
location type of operand.
* Fix two instances of `enum_nonexhaustive` Value Tag not handled
properly - it should generally be handled the same as `enum_full`.
* Fix struct and union field resolution not copying Type and Value
objects into its Decl arena.
* Fix enum tag value resolution discarding the ZIR=>AIR instruction map
for the child Sema, when they still needed to be accessed.
* Fix `zirResolveInferredAlloc` use-after-free in the AIR instructions
data array.
* Fix `elemPtrArray` not respecting const/mutable attribute of pointer
in the result type.
* Fix LLVM backend crashing when `updateDeclExports` is called before
`updateDecl`/`updateFunc` (which is, according to the API, perfectly
legal for the frontend to do).
* Fix LLVM backend handling element pointer of pointer-to-array. It
needed another index in the GEP otherwise LLVM saw the wrong type.
* Fix LLVM test cases not returning 0 from main, causing test failures.
Fixes a regression introduced in
6a5094872f10acc629543cc7f10533b438d0283a.
* Implement comptime shift-right.
* Implement `@Type` for integers and `@TypeInfo` for integers.
* Implement union initialization syntax.
* Implement `zirFieldType` for unions.
* Implement `elemPtrArray` for a runtime-known operand.
* Make `zirLog2IntType` support RHS of shift being `comptime_int`. In
this case it returns `comptime_int`.
The motivating test case for this commit was originally:
```zig
test "example" {
var l: List(10) = undefined;
l.array[1] = 1;
}
fn List(comptime L: usize) type {
var T = u8;
return struct {
array: [L]T,
};
}
```
However I changed it to:
```zig
test "example" {
var l: List = undefined;
l.array[1] = 1;
}
const List = blk: {
const T = [10]u8;
break :blk struct {
array: T,
};
};
```
Which ended up being a similar, smaller problem. The former test case
will require a similar solution in the implementation of comptime
function calls - checking if the result of the function call is a struct
or union, and using the child `Sema` before it is destroyed to resolve
the fields.
instead of globally storing unresolved and tentative defs,
store indices to actual symbols in the functions that are responsible
for symbol resolution.
* Value: rename `error_union` to `eu_payload` and clarify the intended
usage in the doc comments. The way error unions is represented with
Value is fixed to not have ambiguous values.
* Fix codegen for error union constants in all the backends.
* Implement the AIR instructions having to do with error unions in the
LLVM backend.
* New AIR instructions: ptr_add, ptr_sub, ptr_elem_val, ptr_ptr_elem_val
- See the doc comments for details.
* Sema: implement runtime pointer arithmetic.
* Sema: implement elem_val for many-pointers.
* Sema: support coercion from `*[N:s]T` to `[*]T`.
* Type: isIndexable handles many-pointers.
