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.
Previously the memory would be copied to a different aligned address in some cases where the old offset could have been used. This fixes it so that it will always try to use the old offset when possible, and only uses a different offset if the old one is truly invalid (not aligned or not enough space to store the alloc at the old offset).
The return address may not point to an area covered by the debug infos
so we hope for the best and decrement the address so that it points to
the caller instruction.
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.

* Correct parsing of DWARF line_info section
* Fix reading of udata/sdata encoded attributes
* Add definition for DW_AT_alignment
Even though it's been standardized in DWARF5 some compilers produce it
anyway for DWARF4 infos too.
* Fix reading of reference attributes
* Distinguish between absolute/relative addresses
This effectively takes one-bit from the length field and uses it as the
sign bit. It reduces the size of an Int from 40 bits to 32 bits on a
64-bit arch.
This also reduces std.Rational from 80 bits to 64 bits.
A constant Int is one which has a value of null for its allocator field.
It cannot be resized or have its limbs written. Any attempt made to
write to it will be caught with a runtime panic.
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.
The flag is for generating correct arm-thumb interwork veneers in the
assembly code __aeabi_{memcpy,memset,etc} functions.
Armv6m only does thumb code generation regardless of whether arm or
thumb is selected and armv6t2 uses the newer thumb 2 set. All other
versions that zig supports pre-armv7 need the veneers and hence the
flag. Armv5 is actually armv5t.
Relevant code from clang/lib/Basic/Targets/Arm.cpp
```c
bool ARMTargetInfo::isThumb() const {
return ArchISA == llvm::ARM::ISAKind::THUMB;
}
bool ARMTargetInfo::supportsThumb() const {
return CPUAttr.count('T') || ArchVersion >= 6;
}
bool ARMTargetInfo::supportsThumb2() const {
return CPUAttr.equals("6T2") ||
(ArchVersion >= 7 && !CPUAttr.equals("8M_BASE"));
}
```

Now returns a copy of the removed kv instead of a pointer to the removed kv. The removed kv gets overwritten when shifting the hash map after the removal, so returning a pointer to it will have another kv's values in it after the return.
This bug had some nasty downstream effects in things like BufSet and BufMap where delete would free a still in-use KV and leave the actually removed KV un-free'd.
Documentation comments copied here:
On Linux, it is possible that the thread spawned with `spawnThread`
finishes executing entirely before the clone syscall completes. In this
case, `std.os.Thread.handle` will return 0 rather than the
no-longer-existing thread's pid.
* Fixes to divsf3
Embarrassingly failed to notice a section that was unchanged from where
it was copied from mulXf3.zig. The test cases for this function series
div{s,d,t}f3 are very incomplete and don't exercise all code paths.
Remove unnecessary switch from divsf3 left during development from when
I tried to make it generic to support f32, f64, and f128 in one go.
Make runtime safety dependent on whether a test is being run.
* divsf3: switch plus to minus
This fixes comes thanks to Rich Felker from the musl libc project,
who gave me this crucial information:
"to satisfy the abi, your init code has to write the same value
to that memory location as the value passed to the [arch_prctl]
syscall"
This commit also changes the rules for when to build statically
by default. When building objects and static libraries, position
independent code is disabled if no libraries will be dynamically
linked and the target does not require position independent code.

It is sometimes useful to skip generating of the header file (e.g. https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/2173), and zig compiler provides an option `--disable-gen-h` to control that behaviour. However, setting `lib.disable_gen_h = true` in a typical `build.zig` didn't append the option to arguments. This commit fixes it and adds a convenient `setDisableGenH` setter.
Does NOT look at the locale the way the C functions do.

Before, allocator implementations had to provide `allocFn`,
`reallocFn`, and `freeFn`.
Now, they must provide only `reallocFn` and `shrinkFn`.
Reallocating from a zero length slice is allocation, and
shrinking to a zero length slice is freeing.
When the new memory size is less than or equal to the
previous allocation size, `reallocFn` now has the option
to return `error.OutOfMemory` to indicate that the allocator
would not be able to take advantage of the new size.
For more details see #1306. This commit closes#1306.
This commit paves the way to solving #2009.
This commit also introduces a memory leak to all coroutines.
There is an issue where a coroutine calls the function and it
frees its own stack frame, but then the return value of `shrinkFn`
is a slice, which is implemented as an sret struct. Writing to
the return pointer causes invalid memory write. We could work
around it by having a global helper function which has a void
return type and calling that instead. But instead this hack will
suffice until I rework coroutines to be non-allocating. Basically
coroutines are not supported right now until they are reworked as
in #1194.
`--static` is no longer an option. Instead, Zig makes things as static
as possible by default. `-dynamic` can be used to choose a dynamic
library rather than a static one.
`--enable-pic` is a new option. Usually it will be enabled
automatically, but in the case of build-exe with no dynamic libraries
on Linux or freestanding, Zig chooses off by default.

Windows doesn't have rpaths for DLLs so we instead add
search paths to Path environment variable when running
an executable that depends on DLLs built with zig build.
* in Zig build scripts, getOutputPath() is no longer a valid function
to call, unless setOutputDir() was used, or within a custom make()
function. Instead there is more convenient API to use which takes
advantage of the caching system. Search this commit diff for
`exe.run()` for an example.
* Zig build by default enables caching. All build artifacts will go
into zig-cache. If you want to access build artifacts in a convenient
location, it is recommended to add an `install` step. Otherwise
you can use the `run()` API mentioned above to execute programs
directly from their location in the cache. Closes#330.
`addSystemCommand` is available for programs not built with Zig
build.
* Please note that Zig does no cache evicting yet. You may have to
manually delete zig-cache directories periodically to keep disk
usage down. It's planned for this to be a simple Least Recently
Used eviction system eventually.
* `--output`, `--output-lib`, and `--output-h` are removed. Instead,
use `--output-dir` which defaults to the current working directory.
Or take advantage of `--cache on`, which will print the main output
path to stdout, and the other artifacts will be in the same directory
with predictable file names. `--disable-gen-h` is available when
one wants to prevent .h file generation.
* `@cImport` is always independently cached now. Closes#2015.
It always writes the generated Zig code to disk which makes debug
info and compile errors better. No more "TODO: remember C source
location to display here"
* Fix .d file parsing. (Fixes the MacOS CI failure)
* Zig no longer creates "temporary files" other than inside a
zig-cache directory.
This breaks the CLI API that Godbolt uses. The suggested new invocation
can be found in this commit diff, in the changes to `test/cli.zig`.
closes#2024
there's a new cli option `--main-pkg-path` which you can use to choose
a different root package directory besides the one inferred from the
root source file
and a corresponding build.zig API:
foo.setMainPkgPath(path)
* CLI: `-target [name]` instead of `--target-*` args.
This matches clang's API.
* `builtin.Environ` renamed to `builtin.Abi`
- likewise `builtin.environ` renamed to `builtin.abi`
* stop hiding the concept of sub-arch. closes#1526
* `zig targets` only shows available targets. closes#438
* include all targets in readme, even those that don't
print with `zig targets` but note they are Tier 4
* refactor target.cpp and make the naming conventions
more consistent
* introduce the concept of a "default C ABI" for a given
OS/Arch combo. As a rule of thumb, if the system compiler
is clang or gcc then the default C ABI is the gnu ABI.
New CLI parameter: --c-source [options] [file]
It even works with `--cache on` when there are transitive dependencies.
Instead of `builder.addCExecutable`, use `builder.addExecutable` and pass
`null` for the root source file. Then use `builder.addCSourceFile`,
which takes the path to the C code, and a list of C compiler args.
Be sure to linkSystemLibrary("c") if you want libc headers to be
available.
Merge TestStep into LibExeObjStep. That was long overdue.

Mostly picking the same paths as FreeBSD.
We need a little special handling for crt files, as netbsd uses its
