Hashing, equality checking, and expanding lazy values were not
inspecting the is_comptime field of structs, causing incorrect behavior
for tuples. When looking at a comptime value of a struct, if the
is_comptime field is true, the value must be learned from the type
rather than the value.
This commit intentions to have no functional changes. The only purpose
is to delete the struct IrInst, which is the common base struct that
both IrInstSrc (ZIR) and IrInstGen (AIR) instructions embed.
This untangles stage1 ZIR and AIR memory layout, paving the way for a
following commit to reduce memory usage.
It now displays the byte with proper printability handling. This makes
the relevant compile error test case no longer a regression in quality
from stage1 to stage2.
This is progress towards making Stage1Zir immutable, so that we can
avoid generating it for every comptime function call.
Also rename IrExecutableGen to Stage1Air.
* Extracts AstGen logic from ir.cpp into astgen.cpp. Reduces the
largest file of stage1 from 33,551 lines to 25,510.
* tokenizer: rework it completely to match the stage2 tokenizer logic.
They can now be maintained together; when one is changed, the other
can be changed in the same way.
- Each token now takes up 13 bytes instead of 64 bytes. The tokenizer
does not parse char literals, string literals, integer literals,
etc into meaningful data. Instead, that happens during parsing or
astgen.
- no longer store line offsets. Error messages scan source
files to find the line/column as needed (same as stage2).
- main loop: instead of checking the loop, handle a null byte
explicitly in the switch statements. This is a nice improvement
that we may want to backport to stage2.
- delete some dead tokens, artifacts of past syntax that no longer
exists.
* Parser: fix a TODO by parsing builtin functions as tokens rather than
`@` as a separate token. This is how stage2 does it.
* Remove some debugging infrastructure. These will need to be redone,
if at all, as the code migrates to match stage2.
- remove the ast_render code.
- remove the IR debugging stuff
- remove teh token printing code
The code would previously assume every function would start at addresses
being multiples of 16, this is not true beside some specific cases.
Moreover LLVM picks different alignment values depending on whether it's
trying to generate dense or fast code.
Let's use the minimum guaranteed alignment as base value, computed
according to how big the opcodes are.
The alignment of function pointers is always 1, a safe value that won't
cause any error at runtime. Note that this was already the case before
this commit, here we're making this choice explicit.
Let the 'alignment' field for TypeInfo of fn types reflect the ABI
alignment used by the compiler, make this field behave similarly to the
'alignment' one for pointers.
Making the enum type share the scope with the parent union means every
declaration "bleeds" into the enum scope.
Let's mint a fresh empty scope for the enum type.
Thanks to @Vexu for the test case.
Closes#7532
Don't cut any corner and properly run the type trough every single step
even though it has no fields (or, better, the sum of the size of all its
fields is zero).
Fix the logic to consider an explicit non-zero-sized tag enough to treat
the type as sized.
Closes#7451
The main idea here is that there are now 2 ways to get a stage1 zig
binary:
* The cmake path. Requirements: cmake, system C++ compiler, system
LLVM, LLD, Clang libraries, compiled by the system C++ compiler.
* The zig path. Requirements: a zig installation, system LLVM, LLD,
Clang libraries, compiled by the zig installation.
Note that the former can be used to now take the latter path.
Removed config.h.in and config.zig.in. The build.zig script no longer is
coupled to the cmake script.
cmake no longer tries to determine the zig version. A build with cmake
will yield a stage1 zig binary that reports 0.0.0+zig0. This is going to
get reverted.
`zig build` now accepts `-Dstage1` which will build the stage1 compiler,
and put the stage2 backend behind a feature flag.
build.zig is simplified to only support the use case of enabling LLVM
support when the LLVM, LLD, and Clang libraries were built by zig. This
part is probably sadly going to have to get reverted to make package
maintainers happy.
Zig build system addBuildOption supports a couple new types.
The biggest reason to make this change is that the zig path is an
attractive option for doing compiler development work on Windows. It
allows people to work on the compiler without having MSVC installed,
using only a .zip file that contains Zig + LLVM/LLD/Clang libraries.
Fill in the correct value instead of leaving everything uninitialized.
This problem can be noticed in behavior/union.zig but it's masked by
some other "optimization" kicking in at the wrong time, the following
commits will address that.
The code tried to be too smart and skipped the equality (returning true)
if the payload type was zero-sized.
This optimization is completely wrong when the union payload is a
metatype!
Fixes#7047
