While the SysV ABI is not that complicated, LLVM does not allow us
direct access to enforce it. By mimicking the IR generated by clang,
we can trick LLVM into doing the right thing. This involves two main
additions:
1. `AGG` ABI class
This is not part of the spec, but since we have to track class per
eightbyte and not per struct, the current enum is not enough. I
considered adding multiple classes like: `INTEGER_INTEGER`,
`INTEGER_SSE`, `SSE_INTEGER`. However, all of those cases would trigger
the same code path so it's simpler to collapse into one. This class is
only used on SysV.
2. LLVM C ABI type
Clang uses different types in C ABI function signatures than the
original structs passed in, and does conversion. For example, this
struct: `{ i8, i8, float }` would use `{ i16, float }` at ABI boundaries.
When passed as an argument, it is instead split into two arguments `i16`
and `float`. Therefore, for every struct that passes ABI boundaries we
need to keep track of its corresponding ABI type. Here are some more
examples:
```
| Struct | ABI equivalent |
| { i8, i8, i8, i8 } | i32 |
| { float, float } | double |
| { float, i32, i8 } | { float, i64 } |
```
Then, we must update function calls, returns, parameter lists and inits
to properly convert back and forth as needed.
Before calling populateTestFunctions() we want to check
totalErrorCount() but that will read from some tables that might get
populated by the thread pool for C compilation tasks. So we wait until
all those tasks are finished before proceeding.
Frontend improvements:
* When compiling in `zig test` mode, put a task on the work queue to
analyze the main package root file. Normally, start code does
`_ = import("root");` to make Zig analyze the user's code, however in
the case of `zig test`, the root source file is the test runner.
Without this change, no tests are picked up.
* In the main pipeline, once semantic analysis is finished, if there
are no compile errors, populate the `test_functions` Decl with the
set of test functions picked up from semantic analysis.
* Value: add `array` and `slice` Tags.
LLVM backend improvements:
* Fix incremental updates of globals. Previously the
value of a global would not get replaced with a new value.
* Fix LLVM type of arrays. They were incorrectly sending
the ABI size as the element count.
* Remove the FuncGen parameter from genTypedValue. This function is for
generating global constants and there is no function available when
it is being called.
- The `ref_val` case is now commented out. I'd like to eliminate
`ref_val` as one of the possible Value Tags. Instead it should
always be done via `decl_ref`.
* Implement constant value generation for slices, arrays, and structs.
* Constant value generation for functions supports the `decl_ref` tag.
* Add AIR instruction: struct_field_val
- This is part of an effort to eliminate the AIR instruction `ref`.
- It's implemented for C backend and LLVM backend so far.
* Rename `resolvePossiblyUndefinedValue` to `resolveMaybeUndefVal` just
to save some columns on long lines.
* Sema: add `fieldVal` alongside `fieldPtr` (renamed from
`namedFieldPtr`). This is part of an effort to eliminate the AIR
instruction `ref`. The idea is to avoid unnecessary loads, stores,
stack usage, and IR instructions, by paying a DRY cost.
LLVM backend improvements:
* internal linkage vs exported linkage is implemented, along with
aliases. There is an issue with incremental updates due to missing
LLVM API for deleting aliases; see the relevant comment in this commit.
- `updateDeclExports` is hooked up to the LLVM backend now.
* Fix usage of `Type.tag() == .noreturn` rather than calling `isNoReturn()`.
* Properly mark global variables as mutable/constant.
* Fix llvm type generation of function pointers
* Fix codegen for calls of function pointers
* Implement llvm type generation of error unions and error sets.
* Implement AIR instructions: addwrap, subwrap, mul, mulwrap, div,
bit_and, bool_and, bit_or, bool_or, xor, struct_field_ptr,
struct_field_val, unwrap_errunion_err, add for floats, sub for
floats.
After this commit, `zig test` on a file with `test "example" {}`
correctly generates and executes a test binary. However the
`test_functions` slice is undefined and just happens to be going into
the .bss section, causing the length to be 0. The next step towards
`zig test` will be replacing the `test_functions` Decl Value with the
set of test function pointers, before it is sent to linker/codegen.
@select(
comptime T: type,
pred: std.meta.Vector(len, bool),
a: std.meta.Vector(len, T),
b: std.meta.Vector(len, T)
) std.meta.Vector(len, T)
Constructs a vector from a & b, based on the values in the predicate vector. For indices where the predicate value is true, the corresponding
element from the a vector is selected, and otherwise from b.
* properly set global variables to const if they are not a global
variable.
* implement global variable initializations.
* initial implementation of llvmType() for structs and functions.
* implement genTypedValue for variable tags
* implement more AIR instructions: varptr, slice_ptr, slice_len,
slice_elem_val, ptr_slice_elem_val, unwrap_errunion_payload,
unwrap_errunion_payload_ptr, unwrap_errunion_err,
unwrap_errunion_err_ptr.
These AIR instructions are the next blockers for `zig test` to work for
this backend.
After this commit, the "hello world" x86_64 test case passes for the
LLVM backend as well.
This is an initial version, todo:
- Also make this work for u64 values, as the table must be indexed by u32.
- Add support for signed integers.
- Add support for enums.
* There is now a main_pkg in addition to root_pkg. They are usually the
same. When using `zig test`, main_pkg is the user's source file and
root_pkg has the test runner.
* scanDecl no longer looks for test decls outside the package being
tested. honoring `--test-filter` is still TODO.
* test runner main function has a void return value rather than
`anyerror!void`
* Sema is improved to generate better AIR for for loops on slices.
* Sema: fix incorrect capacity calculation in zirBoolBr
* Sema: add compile errors for trying to use slice fields as an lvalue.
* Sema: fix type coercion for error unions
* Sema: fix analyzeVarRef generating garbage AIR
* C codegen: fix renderValue for error unions with 0 bit payload
* C codegen: implement function pointer calls
* CLI: fix usage text
Adds 4 new AIR instructions:
* slice_len, slice_ptr: to get the ptr and len fields of a slice.
* slice_elem_val, ptr_slice_elem_val: to get the element value of
a slice, and a pointer to a slice.
AstGen gains a new functionality:
* One of the unused flags of struct decls is now used to indicate
structs that are known to have non-zero size based on the AST alone.
