Having the matrix of test targets for incremental compilation in the
individual test manifests has turned out to be inconvenient for a few
reasons: the tests are almost certain to accidentally get out of sync,
disabling targets entirely is annoying to do, and incr-check needs to
take care to print the target in all error messages (which currently
does not always happen).
If I recall correctly, I originally designed it this way because it
allows targets to be disabled at the granularity of individual tests,
but there's an easier approach to that: just let a test manifest that it
should be *skipped* on a certain target! As skipping is the rare case,
and also the case you want readers to notice, it makes sense for *it* to
be explicitly specified, like how unit tests use `error.SkipZigTest`.
So, `incr-check` no longer runs through a list of targets specified in
the manifest. Instead, it accepts (and, in fact, requires) a single
target on the command line, and runs the test for that specific target.
If the file contains a `#skip_target` directive for that target, then
`incr-check` exits immediately, so we can still disable targets at
individual test granularity, but you can also disable a target for all
tests by just commenting it out of the matrix in `test/tests.zig`.
As a nice bonus, this also allows the build system to run different
incremental test targets in parallel, because the targets are now
different steps.
This definitely seems like a better way to split the work between the
build system and incr-check---sorry for getting this wrong initially!
This PR enables all incremental tests under the `test/incremental` directory, except one: `change_exports`, which is currently ignored as it requires a non-trivial amount of work on the linker, since we do not currently support exporting data symbols.
To enable the other tests, the following fixes were needed:
1. `src/link/Wasm.zig`: instead of chasing function type through Nav, get it directly.
2. `src/target.zig`: `.panic_fn` appears to work fine with the wasm backend.
3. `src/codegen/wasm/CodeGen.zig`: there was a liveness related bug that caused some `ArenaAllocator` code to crash the backend.
More info on (3), the liveness and local reuse code in the backend for years in unfinished state. For example there is currently no branch merging and reuse happens only when inst die in same block level. I initially considered doing a large refactor to implement everything correctly, but aborted due to its sheer size and currently! no clear idea about how to do this efficiently.
Instead, I fixed the bug with minimal changes and removed useless code, keeping the old solution otherwise intact.
These all pass now! I have also removed the warning about the LLVM
backend not supporting incremental compilation; I expect it will work
sort of okay in practice by now.
On Windows, it is sometimes problematic to depend on ws2_32.dll. Before,
users of std.Io.Threaded would have to call ioBasic() rather than io()
in order to avoid unnecessary dependencies on ws2_32.dll. Now, the
application can disable networking with std.Options.
This change is necessary due to moving networking functionality to
be based on Io.Operation, which is a tagged union.
`castTruncatedData` was a poorly worded error (all shrinking casts
"truncate bits", it's just that we assume those bits to be zext/sext of
the other bits!), and `negativeToUnsigned` was a pointless distinction
which forced the compiler to emit worse code (since two separate safety
checks were required for casting e.g. 'i32' to 'u16') and wasn't even
implemented correctly. This commit combines those safety panics into one
function, `integerOutOfBounds`. The name maybe isn't perfect, but that's
not hugely important; what matters is the new default message, which is
clearer than the old ones: "integer does not fit in destination type".
* `std.builtin.Panic` -> `std.builtin.panic`, because it is a namespace.
* `root.Panic` -> `root.panic` for the same reason. There are type
checks so that we still allow the legacy `pub fn panic` strategy in
the 0.14.0 release.
* `std.debug.SimplePanic` -> `std.debug.simple_panic`, same reason.
* `std.debug.NoPanic` -> `std.debug.no_panic`, same reason.
* `std.debug.FormattedPanic` is now a function `std.debug.FullPanic`
which takes as input a `panicFn` and returns a namespace with all the
panic functions. This handles the incredibly common case of just
wanting to override how the message is printed, whilst keeping nice
formatted panics.
* Remove `std.builtin.panic.messages`; now, every safety panic has its
own function. This reduces binary bloat, as calls to these functions
no longer need to prepare any arguments (aside from the error return
trace).
* Remove some legacy declarations, since a zig1.wasm update has
happened. Most of these were related to the panic handler, but a quick
grep for "zig1" brought up a couple more results too.
Also, add some missing type checks to Sema.
