Prior to this commit, the AIR arg instruction kept a reference to a ZIR
string index for the corresponding parameter name. This is used by DWARF
emitting code. However, this is a design flaw because we want AIR
objects to be independent from ZIR.
This commit saves the parameter names into memory managed by
`Module.Fn`. This is sub-optimal because we should be able to get the
parameter names from the ZIR for a function without having them
redundantly stored along with `Fn` memory. However the current way that
ZIR param instructions are encoded does not support this case. They
appear in the same ZIR body as the function instruction, just before it.
Instead, they should be embedded within the function instruction, which
will allow this TODO to be solved. That improvement is too big for this
commit, however.
After this there is one last dependency to untangle, which is for inline
assembly. The issue for that is #10784.
When Sema sees a store_node instruction, it now checks for
the possibility of this pattern:
%a = ret_ptr
%b = store(%a, %c)
Where %c is an error union. In such case we need to add to the
current function's inferred error set, if any.
Coercion from error union to error union will be handled ideally if the
operand is comptime known. In such case it does the appropriate
unwrapping, then wraps again.
In the future, coercion from error union to error union should do the
same thing for a runtime value; emitting a runtime branch to check if
the value is an error or not.
`Value.arrayLen` for structs returns the number of fields. This is so
that Liveness can use it for the `vector_init` instruction (soon to be
renamed to `aggregate_init`).
`const` declarations inside comptime blocks were not getting properly
evaluated at compile-time. To accomplish this there is a new ZIR
instruction, `alloc_inferred_comptime`. Actually we already had one
named that, but it got renamed to `alloc_inferred_comptime_mut` to match
the naming convention with the other similar instructions.
* pass air_tag instead of zir_tag
* also pass eval function so that the branch only happens once and the
body of zirUnaryMath is simplified
* Value.sqrt: update to handle f80 and f128 in the normalized way that
includes handling c_longdouble.
Semi-related change: fix incorrect sqrt builtin name for f80 in stage1.
Support for f128, comptime_float, and c_longdouble require improvements
to compiler_rt and will implemented in a later PR. Some of the code in
this commit could be made more generic, for instance `llvm.airSqrt`
could probably be `llvm.airUnaryMath`, but let's cross that
bridge when we get to it.
AstGen: Fixed bug where f80 types in source were triggering illegal
behavior.
Value: handle f80 in floating point arithmetic functions.
Value: implement floatRem and floatMod
This commit introduces dependencies on compiler-rt that are not
implemented. Those are a prerequisite to merging this branch.
For example, a situation like this is allowed
```zig
extern "c" var stderrp: c_int;
```
In this case, `Module.Var` wrapping `stderrp` will have `lib_name`
populated with the library name where this import is expected.
`ExternFn` will contain a maybe-lib-name if it was defined with
the `extern` keyword like so
```zig
extern "c" fn write(usize, usize, usize) usize;
```
`lib_name` will live as long as `ExternFn` decl does.
fieldVal handles pointer to pointer to array. This can happen for
example, if a pointer to an array is used as the condition expression of
a for loop.
resolveStructFully handles tuples (by doing nothing).
fixed Type comparison for tuples to handle comptime fields properly.
* resolve_inferred_alloc now gives a proper mutability attribute to the
corresponding alloc instruction. Previously, it would fail to mark
things const.
* slicing: fix the detection for when the end index equals the length
of the underlying object. Previously it was using `end - start` but
it should just use the end index directly. It also takes into account
when slicing a comptime-known slice.
* `Type.sentinel`: fix not handling all slice tags
* comptime known 0 as a numerator returns comptime 0 independent of
denominator.
* negative numerator and denominator are allowed when the remainder is
zero because that means the modulus would be also zero.
* organize math behavior tests
Takes advantage of the pattern already established with
array_init_anon. Also upgrades array_init (non-anon) to the pattern.
Implements comptime struct value equality and pointer value hashing.
AstGen:
* rename the known_has_bits flag to known_non_opv to make it better
reflect what it actually means.
* add a known_comptime_only flag.
* make the flags take advantage of identifiers of primitives and the
fact that zig has no shadowing.
* correct the known_non_opv flag for function bodies.
Sema:
* Rename `hasCodeGenBits` to `hasRuntimeBits` to better reflect what it
does.
- This function got a bit more complicated in this commit because of
the duality of function bodies: on one hand they have runtime bits,
but on the other hand they require being comptime known.
* WipAnonDecl now takes a LazySrcDecl parameter and performs the type
resolutions that it needs during finish().
* Implement comptime `@ptrToInt`.
Codegen:
* Improved handling of lowering decl_ref; make it work for
comptime-known ptr-to-int values.
- This same change had to be made many different times; perhaps we
should look into merging the implementations of `genTypedValue`
across x86, arm, aarch64, and riscv.
This commit updates stage2 to enforce the property that the syntax
`fn()void` is a function *body* not a *pointer*. To get a pointer, the
syntax `*const fn()void` is required.
ZIR puts function alignment into the func instruction rather than the
decl because this way it makes it into function types. LLVM backend
respects function alignments.
Struct and Union have methods `fieldSrcLoc` to help look up source
locations of their fields. These trigger full loading, tokenization, and
parsing of source files, so should only be called once it is confirmed
that an error message needs to be printed.
There are some nice new error hints for explaining why a type is
required to be comptime, particularly for structs that contain function
body types.
`Type.requiresComptime` is now moved into Sema because it can fail and
might need to trigger field type resolution. Comptime pointer loading
takes into account types that do not have a well-defined memory layout
and does not try to compute a byte offset for them.
`fn()void` syntax no longer secretly makes a pointer. You get a function
body type, which requires comptime. However a pointer to a function body
can be runtime known (obviously).
Compile errors that report "expected pointer, found ..." are factored
out into convenience functions `checkPtrOperand` and `checkPtrType` and
have a note about function pointers.
Implemented `Value.hash` for functions, enum literals, and undefined values.
stage1 is not updated to this (yet?), so some workarounds and disabled
tests are needed to keep everything working. Should we update stage1 to
these new type semantics? Yes probably because I don't want to add too
much conditional compilation logic in the std lib for the different
backends.
