Beside the new order being consistent with the ThreadPool API and making
more sense, this shuffling allows to write the context argument type in
terms of the startFn arguments, reducing the use of anytype (eg. less
explicit casts when using comptime_int parameters, yay).
Sorry for the breakage.
Closes#8082
I noticed that the write function does not properly use non-blocking
I/O. This file needs to be reworked for evented I/O to properly take
advantage of non-blocking writes to network sockets.
* move concurrency primitives that always operate on kernel threads to
the std.Thread namespace
* remove std.SpinLock. Nobody should use this in a non-freestanding
environment; the other primitives are always preferable. In
freestanding, it will be necessary to put custom spin logic in there,
so there are no use cases for a std lib version.
* move some std lib files to the top level fields convention
* add std.Thread.spinLoopHint
* add std.Thread.Condition
* add std.Thread.Semaphore
* new implementation of std.Thread.Mutex for Windows and non-pthreads Linux
* add std.Thread.RwLock
Implementations provided by @kprotty
Zig's format system is flexible enough to add custom formatters. This PR removes the new z/Z format specifiers that were added for printing Zig identifiers and replaces them with custom formatters.
* split std.ResetEvent into:
- ResetEvent - requires init() at runtime and it can fail. Also
requires deinit().
- StaticResetEvent - can be statically initialized and requires no
deinitialization. Initialization cannot fail.
* the POSIX sem_t implementation can in fact fail on initialization
because it is allowed to be implemented as a file descriptor.
* Completely define, clarify, and explain in detail the semantics of
these APIs. Remove the `isSet` function.
* `ResetEvent.timedWait` returns an enum instead of a possible error.
* `ResetEvent.init` takes a pointer to the ResetEvent instead of
returning a copy.
* On Darwin, `ResetEvent` is implemented using Grand Central Dispatch,
which is exposed by libSystem.
stage2 changes:
* ThreadPool: use a single, pre-initialized `ResetEvent` per worker.
* WaitGroup: now requires init() and deinit() and init() can fail.
- Add a `reset` function.
- Compilation initializes one for the work queue in creation and
re-uses it for every update.
- Rename `stop` to `finish`.
- Simplify the implementation based on the usage pattern.
extension("a.") now returns "." instead of "".
This matches both Python and Node.js standard library behavior as well
as my personal opinion on how this function should be defined.
Apologies for missing this in the code review.
* add more abosolutes
* added wrong files
* adding 2 tests and changing the function signatures because of lazy analysis not checking them
* fix a bug that got uncovered by lazy eval
* Add compile error when using WASI with openDirAbsolute and accessAbsolute
* typo
This intentionally diverges from the unix dirname command, as well as
Python and Node.js standard libraries, which all have this edge case
return the input path, unmodified. This is a footgun, and nobody should
have ever done it this way.
Even the man page contradicts the behavior. It says:
"strip last component from file name". Now consider, if you
remove the last item from an array of length 1, then you
have now an array of length 0. After you strip the last component, there
should be no components remaining. Clearly, returning the input parameter
unmodified in this case does not match the documented behavior. This is
my justification for taking a stand on this API design.

With this commit, the function tries to use more efficient syscalls, and
then falls back to non-positional reads.
The motivating use case for this change is to support something like the
following:
try io.getStdOut().writeFileAll(dest_file, .{});
