Emscripten currently implements `emscripten_return_address()` by calling
out into JavaScript and parsing a stack trace, which introduces
significant overhead that we would prefer to avoid in release builds.
This is especially problematic for allocators because the generic parts
of `std.mem.Allocator` make frequent use of `@returnAddress`, even
though very few allocator implementations even observe the return
address, which makes allocators nigh unusable for performance-critical
applications like games if the compiler is unable to devirtualize the
allocator calls.
When determining the type of RC compiler, meson passes `/?` or `--version` and then reads from `stdout` looking for particular string(s) anywhere in the output.
So, by adding the string "Microsoft Resource Compiler" to the `/?` output, meson will recognize `zig rc` as rc.exe and give it the correct options, which works fine since `zig rc` is drop-in CLI compatible with rc.exe.
This allows using `zig rc` with meson for (cross-)compiling, by either:
- Setting WINDRES="zig rc" or putting windres = ['zig', 'rc'] in the cross-file
+ This will work like rc.exe, so it will output .res files. This will only link successfully if you are using a linker that can do .res -> .obj conversion (so something like zig cc, MSVC, lld)
- Setting WINDRES="zig rc /:output-format coff" or putting windres = ['zig', 'rc', '/:output-format', 'coff'] in the cross-file
+ This will make meson pass flags as if it were rc.exe, but it will cause the resulting .res file to actually be a COFF object file, meaning it will work with any linker that handles COFF object files
Example cross file that uses `zig cc` (which can link `.res` files, so `/:output-format coff` is not necessary) and `zig rc`:
```
[binaries]
c = ['zig', 'cc', '--target=x86_64-windows-gnu']
windres = ['zig', 'rc']
[target_machine]
system = 'windows'
cpu_family = 'x86_64'
cpu = 'x86_64'
endian = 'little'
```
The code did one useless thing and two wrong things:
- ref counting was basically a noop
- last_dir_fd was chosen from the wrong index and also under the wrong
condition
This caused regular crashes on macOS which are now gone.
* use `tmp.dir.realpathAlloc()` to get full path into tmpDir instances
* use `testing.allocator` where that simplifies things (vs. manual ArenaAllocator for 1 or 2 allocs)
* Trust `TmpDir.cleanup()` to clean up contained files and sub-trees
* Remove some unnecessary absolute paths (enabling WASI to run the tests)
* Drop some no-longer necessary `[_][]const u8` casts
* Add scopes to reduce `var` usage in favor of `const`
This commits adds the following distinct integer types to std.zig.Ast:
- OptionalTokenIndex
- TokenOffset
- OptionalTokenOffset
- Node.OptionalIndex
- Node.Offset
- Node.OptionalOffset
The `Node.Index` type has also been converted to a distinct type while
`TokenIndex` remains unchanged.
`Ast.Node.Data` has also been changed to a (untagged) union to provide
safety checks.
This function checks for various possibilities that are never produced
by the parser.
Given that lastToken is unsafe to call on an Ast with errors, I also
removed code paths that would be reachable on an Ast with errors.
The bitcode format always uses little endian words. Prior to this commit, a
bitcode file produced on e.g. aarch64_be or s390x would fail to be loaded by
LLVM.
The Bernstein-Yang inversion code was meant to be used only with the
fields we currently use for the NIST curves.
But people copied that code and were confused that it didn't work as
expected with other field sizes.
It doesn't cost anything to make it work with other field sizes,
that may support in the future. So let's do it.
This also reduces the diff with the example zig code in fiat crypto.
