CMake has a surprising default behavior where looking up a library by
multiple names gives the name order higher priority than the directory
search order.
For example, if your system provides "llvm-config-14" and
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH includes "llvm-config", CMake will always end up
choosing the system-provided llvm-config-14.
This change add NAMES_PER_DIR to request the more sensible behavior:
directory search order has higher priority than name order, so
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH always wins over system-provided tools/libraries.
LLVM 14 deprecated a bunch of C API functions in preparation for opaque
pointer changes. However, they did not actually implement opaque pointer
semantics, so the deprecations are largely masturbatory. I have nothing
against masturbation, I am just busy trying to get the self hosted
compiler done for 0.10.0, so we will come back to this later.
Rather than lowering float negation as `0.0 - x`.
* Add AIR instruction for float negation.
* Add compiler-rt functions for f128, f80 negation
closes#11853
After doing performance testing, it seems that multi-compilation-unit
compiler-rt did not bring the performance improvements that we expected
it to. The idea is that it makes linking faster, however, it incurred a
cost in the frontend that was not offset by any gains in linking.
Furthermore, the single-object compiler-rt (with -ffunction-sections and
--gc-sections) ends up being fewer bytes on disk and so it's actually
the same or faster linking speed than the multi-compilation-unit
version.
So we are planning to keep using single-compilation-unit compiler-rt for
the foreseeable future, but may experiment with this again in the
future, in which case this commit can be reverted.
The purpose of this branch is to switch to using an object file for each
independent function, in order to make linking simpler - instead of
relying on `-ffunction-sections` and `--gc-sections`, which involves the
linker doing the work of linking everything and then undoing work via
garbage collection, this will allow the linker to only include the
compilation units that are depended on in the first place.
This commit makes progress towards that goal.
Rename all references of sparcv9 to sparc64, to make Zig align more with
other projects. Also, added new function to convert glibc arch name to Zig
arch name, since it refers to the architecture as sparcv9.
This is based on the suggestion by @kubkon in PR 11847.

stage2: change logic for detecting whether the main package is inside
the std package. Previously it relied on realpath() which is not portable.
This uses resolve() which is how imports already work.
* stage2: fix cleanup bug when creating Module
* flatten lib/std/special/* to lib/*
- this was motivated by making main_pkg_is_inside_std false for
compiler_rt & friends.
* rename "mini libc" to "universal libc"
* unify the logic for exporting math functions from compiler-rt,
with the appropriate suffixes and prefixes.
- add all missing f128 and f80 exports. Functions with missing
implementations call other functions and have TODO comments.
- also add f16 functions
* move math functions from freestanding libc to compiler-rt (#7265)
* enable all the f128 and f80 code in the stage2 compiler and behavior
tests (#11161).
* update std lib to use builtins rather than `std.math`.
Add placeholder files for Codegen, Emit, and Mir stages, complete with
a placeholder implementation of generate() to make it able to be plugged in
to the frontend. At the moment the implementation just panics, it'll be
worked on incrementally later.
Also, this registers the sparcv9 backend files into CMakeLists.txt.
Currently, the new API will only be available on macOS with
the intention of adding more POSIX systems to it incrementally
(such as Linux, etc.).
Changes:
* add `posix_spawn` wrappers in a separate container in
`os/posix_spawn.zig`
* rewrite `ChildProcess.spawnPosix` using `posix_spawn` targeting macOS
as `ChildProcess.spawnMacos`
* introduce a `posix_spawn` specific `std.c.waitpid` wrapper which
does return an error in case the child process failed to exec - this
is required for any process that was spawned using `posix_spawn`
mechanism as, by definition, the errors returned by `posix_spawn`
routine cover only the `fork`-equivalent; `pre-exec()` and `exec()`
steps are covered by a catch-all error `ECHILD` returned by `waitpid`
on unsuccessful execution, e.g., no such file error, etc.
- neg can only overflow, if a == MIN
- case `-0` is properly handled by hardware, so overflow check by comparing
`a == MIN` is sufficient
- tests: MIN, MIN+1, MIN+4, -42, -7, -1, 0, 1, 7..
See #1290
- abs can only overflow, if a == MIN
- comparing the sign change from wrapping addition is branchless
- tests: MIN, MIN+1,..MIN+4, -42, -7, -1, 0, 1, 7..
See #1290
- adds __cmpsi2, __cmpdi2, __cmpti2
- adds __ucmpsi2, __ucmpdi2, __ucmpti2
- use 2 if statements with 2 temporaries and a constant
- tests: MIN, MIN+1, MIN/2, -1, 0, 1, MAX/2, MAX-1, MAX if applicable
See #1290
- use negXi2.zig to prevent confusion with negXf2.zig
- used for size optimized builds and machines without carry instruction
- tests: special cases 0, -INT_MIN
* use divTrunc range and shift with constant offsets
See #1290
- each byte gets masked, shifted and combined
- use boring masks instead of comptime for readability
- tests: bit patterns with reverse operation, if applicable
See #1290
`getExternalExecutor` is moved from `std.zig.CrossTarget` to
`std.zig.system.NativeTargetInfo.getExternalExecutor`.
The function also now communicates a bit more information about *why*
the host is unable to execute a binary. The CLI is updated to report
this information in a useful manner.
`getExternalExecutor` is also improved to detect such patterns as:
* x86_64 is able to execute x86 binaries
* aarch64 is able to execute arm binaries
* etc.
Added qemu-hexagon support to `getExternalExecutor`.
`std.Target.canExecBinaries` of is removed; callers should use the more
powerful `getExternalExecutor` instead.
Now that `zig test` tries to run the resulting binary no matter what,
this commit has a follow-up change to the build system and docgen to
utilize the `getExternalExecutor` function and pass `--test-no-exec`
in some cases to avoid getting the error.
Additionally:
* refactor: extract NativePaths and NativeTargetInfo into their own
files named after the structs.
* small improvement to langref to reduce the complexity of the `callconv`
expression in a couple examples.

Add additional search paths pointing at homebrew prefixes as Apple
doesn't ship a static libncurses for linking - only a stub for dynamic
linking `libncurses.tbd`.
* wasm: Move wasm's codegen to arch/wasm/CodeGen.zig
* wasm: Define Wasm's Mir
This declares the initial most-used instructions for wasm as
well as the data that represents them.
TODO: Add binary operand opcodes.
By re-using the wasm opcode values, we can emit each opcode very easily
by simply using `@enumToInt()`. However, this poses a possible problem:
If we use all of wasm's opcodes, it leaves us no room to use synthetic opcodes such as debugging instructions.
We could use reserved opcodes, but the wasm spec may use them at some point.
TODO: Check if we should perhaps use a 16bit tag where the highest bits are used for synthetic opcodes.
* wasm: Define basic Emit structure
* wasm: Implement corresponding Emit functions for MIR
* wasm: Initial lowering to MIR
- This implements lowering to MIR from AIR for storing and loading of locals
as well as emitting immediates.
- Relocating function indexes has been simplified a lot as well as we no
longer need to patch offsets and we write a relocatable value instead.
- Locals are now emitted at the beginning of the function section entry
meaning all offsets we generate are stable.
* wasm: Lower all AIR instructions to MIR
* wasm: Implement remaining MIR instructions
* wasm: Fix function relocations
* wasm: Get all tests working
* wasm: Make `Data` 4 bytes instead of 8.
- 64bit immediates are now stored in 2 seperate u32's.
- 64bit floats are now stored in 2 seperate u32's.
- `mem_arg` is now stored as a seperate payload in extra.
