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
Anecdote 1: The generic version is way more popular than the non-generic
one in Zig codebase:
git grep -w alignForward | wc -l
56
git grep -w alignForwardGeneric | wc -l
149
git grep -w alignBackward | wc -l
6
git grep -w alignBackwardGeneric | wc -l
15
Anecdote 2: In my project (turbonss) that does much arithmetic and
alignment I exclusively use the Generic functions.
Anecdote 3: we used only the Generic versions in the Macho Man's linker
workshop.
Calling into coercion logic here is a little opaque, and more to the
point wholly unnecessary. Instead, the (very short) logic is now
implemented directly in Sema.
Resolves: #16033
The existing logic for peer type resolution was quite convoluted and
buggy. This rewrite makes it much more resilient, readable, and
extensible. The algorithm works by first iterating over the types to
select a "strategy", then applying that strategy, possibly applying peer
resolution recursively.
Several new tests have been added to cover cases which the old logic did
not correctly handle.

To do this, I expanded SwitchProngSrc a bit. Several of the tags there
aren't actually used by any current errors, but they're there for
consistency and if we ever need them.
Also delete a now-redundant test and fix another.
These tags are unnecessary, as this information can be more efficiently
encoded within the switch_block instruction itself. We also use a neat
little trick to avoid needing a dummy instruction (like is used for
errdefer captures): since the switch_block itself cannot otherwise be
referenced within a prong, we can repurpose its index within prongs to
refer to the captured value.
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
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>
In an effort to delete `Value.hashUncoerced`, generic instantiation has
been redesigned. Instead of just storing instantiations in
`monomorphed_funcs`, partially instantiated generic argument types are
also cached. This isn't quite the single `getOrPut` that it used to be,
but one `get` per generic argument plus one get for the instantiation,
with an equal number of `put`s per unique instantiation isn't bad.
InternPool is nice in some ways but it also comes with its own set of
footguns. This commit fixes 5 instances. I see quite a few Valgrind
warnings remaining when running the behavior tests.
Perhaps the solution is to have stringToSlice return a struct with start
and length as indexes, which has a format function?
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.
Key.PtrType is now an extern struct so that hashing it can be done by
reinterpreting bytes directly. It also uses the same representation for
type_pointer Tag encoding and the Key. Accessing pointer attributes now
requires packed struct access, however, many operations are now a copy
of a u32 rather than several independent fields.
This function moves the top two most used Key variants - pointer types
and pointer values - to use a single-shot hash function that branches
for small keys instead of calling memcpy.
As a result, perf against merge-base went from 1.17x ± 0.04 slower to
1.12x ± 0.04 slower. After the pointer value hashing was changed, total
CPU instructions spent in memcpy went from 4.40% to 4.08%, and after
additionally improving pointer type hashing, it further decreased to
3.72%.
The Zig language allows the compiler to make this optimization
automatically. We should definitely make the compiler do that, and
revert this commit. However, that will not happen in this branch, and I
want to continue to explore achieving performance parity with
merge-base. So, this commit changes all InternPool parameters to be
passed by const pointer rather than by value.
I measured a 1.03x ± 0.03 speedup vs the previous commit compiling the
(set of passing) behavior tests. Against merge-base, this commit is
1.17x ± 0.04 slower, which is an improvement from the previous
measurement of 1.22x ± 0.02.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this to happen, and
it should become obsolete when comptime mutation is rewritten
and the remaining legacy value tags are remove, so keeping this
as a separate revertable commit.
Store `InternPool.Index` as the key instead which means that an AIR
instruction no longer needs to be burned to store the type, and also
that we can use AutoArrayHashMap instead of an ArrayList, which avoids
storing duplicates into the set, potentially saving CPU time.
This allows some code (like struct initializers) to use interned types
while other code (such as comptime mutation) continues to use legacy
types.
With these changes, an `zig build-obj empty.zig` gets to a crash on
missing interned error union types.
One change worth noting in this commit is that `module.global_error_set`
is no longer kept strictly up-to-date. The previous code reserved
integer error values when dealing with error set types, but this is no
longer needed because the integer values are not needed for semantic
analysis unless `@errorToInt` or `@intToError` are used and therefore
may be assigned lazily.
Also I moved `anyframe` from being represented by `SimpleType` to being
represented by the `none` tag of `anyframe_type` because most code wants
to handle these two types together.
