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.
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 bit odd, because this value doesn't actually exist:
see #15909. This gets all the empty enum/union behavior tests passing.
Also adds an assertion to `Sema.analyzeBodyInner` which would have
helped figure out the issue here much more quickly.
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%.
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.
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.
I'm seeing a new assertion trip: the call to `enumTagFieldIndex` in the
implementation of `@Type` is attempting to query the field index of an
union's enum tag, but the type of the enum tag value provided is not the
same as the union's tag type. Most likely this is a problem with type
coercion, since values are now typed.
Another problem is that I added some hacks in std.builtin because I
didn't see any convenient way to access them from Sema. That should
definitely be cleaned up before merging this branch.
Unlike unions and structs, enums are actually *encoded* into the
InternPool directly, rather than using the SegmentedList trick. This
results in them being quite compact, and greatly improved the ergonomics
of using enum types throughout the compiler.
It did however require introducing a new concept to the InternPool which
is an "incomplete" item - something that is added to gain a permanent
Index, but which is then mutated in place. This was necessary because
enum tag values and tag types may reference the namespaces created by
the enum itself, which required constructing the namespace, decl, and
calling analyzeDecl on the decl, which required the decl value, which
required the enum type, which required an InternPool index to be
assigned and for it to be meaningful.
The API for updating enums in place turned out to be quite slick and
efficient - the methods directly populate pre-allocated arrays and
return the information necessary to output the same compilation errors
as before.
This commit changes a lot of `*const Module` to `*Module` to make it
work, since accessing the integer tag type of an enum might need to
mutate the InternPool by adding a new integer type into it.
An alternate strategy would be to pre-heat the InternPool with the
integer tag type when creating an enum type, which would make it so that
intTagType could accept a const Module instead of a mutable one,
asserting that the InternPool already had the integer tag type.
Instead of doing everything at once which is a hopelessly large task,
this introduces a piecemeal transition that can be done in small
increments at a time.
This is a minimal changeset that keeps the compiler compiling. It only
uses the InternPool for a small set of types.
Behavior tests are not passing.
Air.Inst.Ref and Zir.Inst.Ref are separated into different enums but
compile-time verified to have the same fields in the same order.
The large set of changes is mainly to deal with the fact that most Type
and Value methods now require a Module to be passed in, so that the
InternPool object can be accessed.
Previously we did not write any missing padding bytes after the smallest
field (either tag or payload, depending on alignment). This resulted in
writing too few bytes and not matching the full abisize of the union.
* move `ptrBitWidth` from Arch to Target since it needs to know about the abi
* double isn't always 8 bits
* AVR uses 1-byte alignment for everything in GCC
