Sadly due to a workaround for LLD linker limitations on macOS
we cannot put libuserland into an .a file; instead we have to use object
files. Again due to linker limitations, bundling compiler_rt.o into
another relocatable object also doesn't work. So we're left with
disabling stack probing on macOS for the stage1 self-hosted code.
These workarounds could all be removed if the macos support in the LLD
linker improved, or if Zig project had its own linker that did not have
these issues.
and use it when building libuserland.a
The self-hosted part of stage1 relies on zig's compiler-rt, and so we
include it in libuserland.a.
This should potentially be the default, but for now it's behind a linker
option.
self-hosted translate-c: small progress on translating functions.
Previously if you had, for example:
extern "c" threadlocal var errno: c_int;
This would turn errno into a normal variable for --single-threaded
builds. However for variables with external linkage, there is an ABI
to uphold.
This is needed to make errno work for DragonFly BSD. See #2381.
When using `@memset` to set bytes to `undefined`, Zig notices this
case and does a single Valgrind client request rather than N.
Speeds up all allocators in safe modes.
Closes#2388
Avoid producing Zig code that doesn't compile due to mismatched
alignments between pointers.
Always emit a @alignOf instead of hardcoding the alignment value
returned by LLVM for portability sake of the generated code.
zig --help -> ok
zig --help --c-source -> ok
zig --c-source --help -> crash [fixed]
'i' was being incremented without regard for the 'argc' limit, so
we were running off the end of 'argv'.
The code creates temporary ConstExprValue with global_refs set to
nullptr and that's carried over to the final value. Doing so prevents
the deduplication mechanism to work correctly, causing all sorts of
runtime crashes.
Fixes#1636Fixes#1608 (Even though it was already fixed by #1991)
Previously, `zig fmt` on the stage1 compiler (which is what we currently
ship) would perform what equates to `zig run std/special/fmt_runner.zig`
Now, `zig fmt` is implemented with the hybrid zig/C++ strategy outlined
by #1964.
This means Zig no longer has to ship some of the stage2 .zig files, and
there is no longer a delay when running `zig fmt` for the first time.
After 4df2f3d74f test names have the word "test" in them so the
redundant word is removed from test runner. Also move the prefix/suffix
to where it logically belongs in the fully qualified symbol name.
Tests now have the symbol name of the format `test "<name>"` in order
to be more easily distinguished from functions with similar names.
See issue #2267.
This defines `@sizeOf` to be the runtime size of a type, which means
that it is zero for types such as comptime_int, type, and (enum
literal).
See #2209
const_ptr_pointee_unchecked did not take into account that if the
pointer is zero sized, then const_val->data.x_ptr.special would be
ConstPtrSpecialInvalid. This commit fixes this by also checking
that the child type of the pointer only have one possible value
and just returns that value.
This modifies the build process of Zig to put all of the source files
into libcompiler.a, except main.cpp and userland.cpp.
Next, the build process links main.cpp, userland.cpp, and libcompiler.a
into zig1. userland.cpp is a shim for functions that will later be
replaced with self-hosted implementations.
Next, the build process uses zig1 to build src-self-hosted/stage1.zig
into libuserland.a, which does not depend on any of the things that
are shimmed in userland.cpp, such as translate-c.
Finally, the build process re-links main.cpp and libcompiler.a, except
with libuserland.a instead of userland.cpp. Now the shims are replaced
with .zig code. This provides all of the Zig standard library to the
stage1 C++ compiler, and enables us to move certain things to userland,
such as translate-c.
As a proof of concept I have made the `zig zen` command use text defined
in userland. I added `zig translate-c-2` which is a work-in-progress
reimplementation of translate-c in userland, which currently calls
`std.debug.panic("unimplemented")` and you can see the stack trace makes
it all the way back into the C++ main() function (Thanks LemonBoy for
improving that!).
This could potentially let us move other things into userland, such as
hashing algorithms, the entire cache system, .d file parsing, pretty
much anything that libuserland.a itself doesn't need to depend on.
This can also let us have `zig fmt` in stage1 without the overhead
of child process execution, and without the initial compilation delay
before it gets cached.
See #1964
Previously the code for generating a panic crash expected
one of the parameters to be the error return trace. Now
it does not expect that parameter when g->have_err_ret_tracing
is false.
Closes#2276
Now that c58b802034 has removed
the "top of the comptime stack" requirement, the branch quota
can be modified somewhere other than the top of the comptime stack.
This means that the quota of a parent IrExecutable has to be
modifiable by an instruction in the child.
Closes#2261
ErrorInvalidFormat is not a fatal error so don't close the cache
manifest file right away but instead let cache_final() handle it.
Fixes the following (very common) warning when running the test suite:
Warning: Unable to write cache file [..]: unexpected seek failure
The seek failure is an lseek() system call that failed with EBADF
because the file descriptor had already been closed.
This removes the compiler_rt.setXmm0 hack. Instead, for
the functions that use i128 or u128 in their parameter and
return types, we use `@Vector(2, u64)` which generates
the LLVM IR `<2 x i64>` type that matches what Clang
generates for `typedef int ti_int __attribute__ ((mode (TI)))`
when targeting Windows x86_64.
there's a simple way to check for nan that does not need this header.
hryx on IRC reported that Linux Mint based on ubuntu 16.04, kernel
4.15.0, x86_64 did not have the isnan function.
Before only u0 was special cased in handling a dereference;
now all zero bit types are handled the same way. Dereferencing
a pointer to a zero bit type always gives a comptime-known
result.
This previously had been failing on master branch but went unnoticed
because until 846f72b57c the CI server was mistakenly not actually
running the single-threaded tests with --single-threaded.
This fixes the standard library tests with --single-threaded
--release-fast.
