The big change in this commit is making `semaDecl` resolve the fields if
the Decl ends up being a struct or union. It needs to do this while
the `Sema` is still in scope, because it will have the resolved AIR
instructions that the field type expressions possibly reference. We do
this after the decl is populated and set to `complete` so that a `Decl`
may reference itself.
Everything else is fixes and improvements to make the test suite pass
again after making this change.
* New AIR instruction: `ptr_elem_ptr`
- Implemented for LLVM backend
* New Type tag: `type_info` which represents `std.builtin.TypeInfo`. It
is used by AstGen for the operand type of `@Type`.
* ZIR instruction `set_float_mode` uses `coerced_ty` to avoid
superfluous `as` instruction on operand.
* ZIR instruction `Type` uses `coerced_ty` to properly handle result
location type of operand.
* Fix two instances of `enum_nonexhaustive` Value Tag not handled
properly - it should generally be handled the same as `enum_full`.
* Fix struct and union field resolution not copying Type and Value
objects into its Decl arena.
* Fix enum tag value resolution discarding the ZIR=>AIR instruction map
for the child Sema, when they still needed to be accessed.
* Fix `zirResolveInferredAlloc` use-after-free in the AIR instructions
data array.
* Fix `elemPtrArray` not respecting const/mutable attribute of pointer
in the result type.
* Fix LLVM backend crashing when `updateDeclExports` is called before
`updateDecl`/`updateFunc` (which is, according to the API, perfectly
legal for the frontend to do).
* Fix LLVM backend handling element pointer of pointer-to-array. It
needed another index in the GEP otherwise LLVM saw the wrong type.
* Fix LLVM test cases not returning 0 from main, causing test failures.
Fixes a regression introduced in
6a5094872f.
* Implement comptime shift-right.
* Implement `@Type` for integers and `@TypeInfo` for integers.
* Implement union initialization syntax.
* Implement `zirFieldType` for unions.
* Implement `elemPtrArray` for a runtime-known operand.
* Make `zirLog2IntType` support RHS of shift being `comptime_int`. In
this case it returns `comptime_int`.
The motivating test case for this commit was originally:
```zig
test "example" {
var l: List(10) = undefined;
l.array[1] = 1;
}
fn List(comptime L: usize) type {
var T = u8;
return struct {
array: [L]T,
};
}
```
However I changed it to:
```zig
test "example" {
var l: List = undefined;
l.array[1] = 1;
}
const List = blk: {
const T = [10]u8;
break :blk struct {
array: T,
};
};
```
Which ended up being a similar, smaller problem. The former test case
will require a similar solution in the implementation of comptime
function calls - checking if the result of the function call is a struct
or union, and using the child `Sema` before it is destroyed to resolve
the fields.
* Now it supports being an lvalue (see additional lines in the test
case).
* Properly handles a pointer result location (see additional lines in
the test case that assign the result of the orelse to a variable
rather than a const).
* Properly sets the result location type when possible, so that type
inference of an `orelse` operand expression knows its result type.
We can now codegen optionals! This includes the following instructions:
- is_null
- is_null_ptr
- is_non_null
- is_non_null_ptr
- optional_payload
- optional_payload_ptr
- br_void
Also includes a test for optionals.
The following AST avoids unnecessary derefs now:
* error set decl
* field access
* array access
* for loops: replace ensure_indexable and deref on the len_ptr with a
special purpose ZIR instruction called indexable_ptr_len.
Added an error note when for loop operand is the wrong type.
I also accidentally implemented `@field`.
