This should add all remaining missing return types to all builtin
functions.
For @clz, @ctz, and @popCount it uses anytype for the lack of a better
alternative. We already use this return type for other builtin functions in the langref
to indicate that the type is not always the same.
It is not possible to use anytype as the return type for regular
functions but builtin functions are special.
These are great permutations, and there's nothing wrong with them
from a practical security perspective.
However, both were competing in the NIST lightweight crypto
competition.
Gimli didn't pass the 3rd selection round, and is not much used
in the wild besides Zig and libhydrogen. It will never be
standardized and is unlikely to get more traction in the future.
Xoodyak, that Xoodoo is the permutation of, was a finalist.
It has a lot of advantages and *might* be standardized without NIST.
But this is too early to tell, and too risky to commit to it
in a standard library.
For lightweight crypto, Ascon is the one that we know NIST will
standardize and that we can safely rely on from a usage perspective.
Switch to a traditional ChaCha-based CSPRNG, with an Ascon-based one
as an option for constrained systems.
Add a RNG benchmark by the way.
Gimli and Xoodoo served us well. Their code will be maintained,
but outside the standard library.
It is reasonable to pass -Dskip-non-native when unable to run foreign
binaries, however there is no option for being able to run foreign
static binaries but unable to run foreign dynamic binaries. This can
occur when qemu is installed but not cross glibc.
There are now very few stage1 cases remaining:
* `cases/compile_errors/stage1/obj/*` currently don't work correctly on
stage2. There are 6 of these, and most of them are probably fairly
simple to fix.
* `cases/compile_errors/async/*` and all remaining `safety/*` depend on
async; see #6025.
Resolves: #14849
In case the compiler outputted an object file that is not slicable
into subsections, entry point may overlap with a section atom which
is perfectly fine, so don't panic in that case.
as documented at
https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html
It is now equivalent to do
```
zig objcopy --only-keep-debug bar foo.debug
zig objcopy -g bar foo.tmp
zig objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=foo.debug foo.tmp foo
rm foo.tmp
```
or
```
zig objcopy --only-keep-debug bar foo foo.debug
zig objcopy -g --add-gnu-debuglink=foo.debug bar foo
```
or
```
zig objcopy -g --extract-to=foo.debug bar foo
```
Support for the use case:
`zig objcopy --strip-all program stripped --extract-to stripped.dbg`
to separate the debug & symbols sections out to a companion file, with a corresponding a .gnu_debuglink.
note: this is "a minimal effort implementation"
It doesn't support all possibile elf files: there may be some sections type that need fixups, the program header may need fix up, ...
It was written for a specific use case (strip debug info to a sperate file, for linux 64-bits executables built with `zig` or `zig c++` )
It doesn't support 32-bit files, or file with non-native endianess.
* Fix GetFileInformationByHandle compile error
The wrapper function was mistakenly referencing ntdll.zig when the actual function is declared in kernel32.zig.
* delete GetFileInformationByHandle since it's not used by the stdlib
