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
There are still a few occurrences of "stage1" in the standard library
and self-hosted compiler source, however, these instances need a bit
more careful inspection to ensure no breakage.
Packed memory has a well-defined layout that doesn't require
conversion from an integer to read from. Let's use it :-)
This change means that for bitcasting to/from a packed value that
is N layers deep, we no longer have to create N temporary big-ints
and perform N copies.
Other miscellaneous improvements:
- Adds support for casting to packed enums and vectors
- Fixes bitcasting to/from vectors outside of a packed struct
- Adds a fast path for bitcasting <= u/i64
- Fixes bug when bitcasting f80 which would clear following fields
This also changes the bitcast memory layout of exotic integers on
big-endian systems to match what's empirically observed on our targets.
Technically, this layout is not guaranteed by LLVM so we should probably
ban bitcasts that reveal these padding bits, but for now this is an
improvement.
