There are a couple concepts here worth understanding:
Key.UnionType - This type is available *before* resolving the union's
fields. The enum tag type, number of fields, and field names, field
types, and field alignments are not available with this.
InternPool.UnionType - This one can be obtained from the above type with
`InternPool.loadUnionType` which asserts that the union's enum tag type
has been resolved. This one has all the information available.
Additionally:
* ZIR: Turn an unused bit into `any_aligned_fields` flag to help
semantic analysis know whether a union has explicit alignment on any
fields (usually not).
* Sema: delete `resolveTypeRequiresComptime` which had the same type
signature and near-duplicate logic to `typeRequiresComptime`.
- Make opaque types not report comptime-only (this was inconsistent
between the two implementations of this function).
* Implement accepted proposal #12556 which is a breaking change.
The key changes in this commit are:
```diff
- names: []const NullTerminatedString,
+ names: NullTerminatedString.Slice,
- values: []const Index,
+ values: Index.Slice,
```
Which eliminates the slices from `InternPool.Key.EnumType` and replaces
them with structs that contain `start` and `len` indexes. This makes the
lifetime of `EnumType` change from expiring with updates to InternPool,
to expiring when the InternPool is garbage-collected, which is currently
never.
This is gearing up for a larger change I started working on locally
which moves union types into InternPool.
As a bonus, I fixed some unnecessary instances of `@as`.
Some builtin types have a special InternPool index (e.g.
`.type_info_type`) so that AstGen can refer to them before semantic
analysis. Unfortunately, this previously led to a second index existing
to refer to the type once it was resolved, complicating Sema by having
the concept of an "unresolved" type index.
This change makes Sema modify these InternPool indices in-place to
contain the expanded representation when resolved. The analysis of the
corresponding decls is caught in `Module.semaDecl`, and a field is set
on Sema telling it which index to place struct/union/enum types at. This
system could break if `std.builtin` contained complex decls which
evaluate multiple struct types, but this will be caught by the
assertions in `InternPool.resolveBuiltinType`.
The AstGen result types which were disabled in 6917a8c have been
re-enabled.
Resolves: #16603
Since the same Key.Func data structure is used for coerced function
bodies as well as uncoerced function bodies, there is danger of them
being hashed and equality-checked as the same. When that happens, the
type of a function body value might be wrong, causing lots of problems.
In this instance, it causes an assertion failure.
This commit fixes it by introducing an `uncoerced_ty` field which
is different than `ty` in the case of `func_coerced` and is used to
differentiate when doing hashing and equality checking.
I have a new behavior test to cover this bug, but it revealed *another*
bug at the same time, so I will fix it in the next commit and and add
the new test therein.
* Introduce InternPool.Tag.func_coerced to handle the case of a
function body coerced to a new type. `InternPool.getCoerced` is now
implemented for function bodies in this branch.
* implement resolution of ad-hoc inferred error sets in
`Sema.analyzeCall`.
* fix generic_owner being set wrong for child Sema bodies of param
expressions.
* fix `Sema.resolveInferredErrorSetTy` when passed `anyerror`.
Previously, they shared function index with the owner decl, but that
would clobber the data stored for inferred error sets of runtime calls.
Now there is an adhoc_inferred_error_set_type which models the problem
much more correctly.
Before, it incorrectly passed an InternPool.Index where an extra array
index was expected (to the function which is renamed to `extraErrorSet`
in this commit).
There is one case where function types may be inequal but we still want
to find the same function body instance in InternPool.
In the case of the functions having an inferred error set, the key used
to find an existing function body will necessarily have a unique
inferred error set type, because it refers to the function body
InternPool Index. To make this case work we omit the inferred error set
from the equality and hashing functions.
* move inferred error sets into InternPool.
- they are now represented by pointing directly at the corresponding
function body value.
* inferred error set working memory is now in Sema and expires after
the Sema for the function corresponding to the inferred error set is
finished having its body analyzed.
* error sets use a InternPool.Index.Slice rather than an actual slice
to avoid lifetime issues.
The idea here is to move towards a future where anonymous decls are
represented entirely by an `InternPool.Index`. This was needed to start
implementing `InternPool.getFuncDecl` which requires moving creation and
deletion of Decl objects into InternPool.
* remove `Namespace.anon_decls`
* remove the concept of cleaning up resources from anonymous decls,
relying on InternPool instead.
* move namespace and decl object allocation into InternPool
Abridged summary:
* Move `Module.Fn` into `InternPool`.
* Delete a lot of confusing and problematic `Sema` logic related to
generic function calls.
This commit removes `Module.Fn` and replaces it with two new
`InternPool.Tag` values:
* `func_decl` - corresponding to a function declared in the source
code. This one contains line/column numbers, zir_body_inst, etc.
* `func_instance` - one for each monomorphization of a generic
function. Contains a reference to the `func_decl` from whence the
instantiation came, along with the `comptime` parameter values (or
types in the case of `anytype`)
Since `InternPool` provides deduplication on these values, these fields
are now deleted from `Module`:
* `monomorphed_func_keys`
* `monomorphed_funcs`
* `align_stack_fns`
Instead of these, Sema logic for generic function instantiation now
unconditionally evaluates the function prototype expression for every
generic callsite. This is technically required in order for type
coercions to work. The previous code had some dubious, probably wrong
hacks to make things work, such as `hashUncoerced`. I'm not 100% sure
how we were able to eliminate that function and still pass all the
behavior tests, but I'm pretty sure things were still broken without
doing type coercion for every generic function call argument.
After the function prototype is evaluated, it produces a deduplicated
`func_instance` `InternPool.Index` which can then be used for the
generic function call.
Some other nice things made by this simplification are the removal of
`comptime_args_fn_inst` and `preallocated_new_func` from `Sema`, and the
messy logic associated with them.
I have not yet been able to measure the perf of this against master
branch. On one hand, it reduces memory usage and pointer chasing of the
most heavily used `InternPool` Tag - function bodies - but on the other
hand, it does evaluate function prototype expressions more than before.
We will soon find out.
All of the std except these few functions call it "eql" instead of "eq".
This has previously tripped me up when I expected the equality check function to be called "eql"
(just like all the rest of the std) instead of "eq".
The motivation is consistency.
If search "eq" on Autodoc, these functions stick out and it looks inconsistent.
I just noticed there are also a few functions spelling it out as "equal" (such as std.mem.allEqual).
Maybe those functions should also spell it "eql" but that can be done in a future PR.
Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
Previously, this logic was split between Sema.coerceValueInMemory and
InternPool.getCoerced. This led to issues when trying to coerce e.g. an
optional containing an aggregate, because we'd call through to
InternPool's version which only recurses on itself so could not coerce
aggregates. Unifying them is fairly simple, and also simplified a bit of
logic in Sema.
Also fixes a key lifetime bug in aggregate coercion.
These are frequently invalidated whenever a string is interned, so avoid
creating pointers to `string_bytes` wherever possible. This is an
attempt to fix random CI failures.
All but 2 test cases now pass (tested on x86_64 Linux, native only). The
remaining two signify an issue requiring a larger refactor, which I will
do in a separate commit.
Notable changes:
* Fix uninitialized memory when allocating objects from free lists
* Implement TypedValue printing for pointers
* Fix some TypedValue printing logic
* Work around non-existence of InternPool.remove implementation
Instead of carrying an optimized version of wyhash in the compiler for
small keys, put it into the std lib where it belongs.
...except it does not match the official test cases. This will need to
be fixed before merging into master. This is an extremely
contributor-friendly task.
Related issue: #15916
This is a workaround for InternPool currently not handling
non-null-terminated strings. It avoids using the `bytes` storage for
aggregates if there are any null bytes.
In the future this should be changed so that the `bytes` storage can be
used regardless of whether there are any null bytes. This is important
for use cases such as `@embedFile`.
However, this fixes a bug for now, and after this commit, stage2
self-hosts again.
mlugg: stage5 passes all enabled behavior tests on my system.
Commit message edited by Andrew Kelley <andrew@ziglang.org>
The main motivation for this commit is eliminating Decl.value_arena.
Everything else is dominoes.
Decl.name used to be stored in the GPA, now it is stored in InternPool.
It ended up being simpler to migrate other strings to be interned as
well, such as struct field names, union field names, and a few others.
This ended up requiring a big diff, sorry about that. But the changes
are pretty nice, we finally start to take advantage of InternPool's
existence.
global_error_set and error_name_list are simplified. Now it is a single
ArrayHashMap(NullTerminatedString, void) and the index is the error tag
value.
Module.tmp_hack_arena is re-introduced (it was removed in
eeff407941560ce8eb5b737b2436dfa93cfd3a0c) in order to deal with
comptime_args, optimized_order, and struct and union fields. After
structs and unions get moved into InternPool properly, tmp_hack_arena
can be deleted again.
This is neither a type nor a value. Simplifies `addStrLit` as well as
the many places that switch on `InternPool.Key`.
This is a partial revert of bec29b9e498e08202679aa29a45dab2a06a69a1e.
This is a continuation of 2f24228c758bc8a35d13379703bc1695008212b0.
This commit comes with smaller gains, but gains nonetheless. memcpy is
showing up as much less interesting in callgrind output for behavior
tests.
