This is relevant to PIEs, which are notably enabled by default on macOS.
The build system needs to only see virtual addresses, that is, those
which do not have the slide applied; but the fuzzer itself naturally
sees relocated addresses (i.e. with the slide applied). We just need to
subtract the slide when we communicate addresses to the build system.
Like ELF, we now have `std.debug.MachOFile` for the host-independent
parts, and `std.debug.SelfInfo.MachO` for logic requiring the file to
correspond to the running program.
Apple's own headers and tbd files prefer to think of Mac Catalyst as a distinct
OS target. Earlier, when DriverKit support was added to LLVM, it was represented
a distinct OS. So why Apple decided to only represent Mac Catalyst as an ABI in
the target triple is beyond me. But this isn't the first time they've ignored
established target triple norms (see: armv7k and aarch64_32) and it probably
won't be the last.
While doing this, I also audited all Darwin OS prongs throughout the codebase
and made sure they cover all the tags.
It's easy to do FP unwinding from a CPU context: you just report the
captured ip/pc value first, and then unwind from the captured fp value.
All this really needed was a couple of new functions on the
`std.debug.cpu_context` implementations so that we don't need to rely on
`std.debug.Dwarf` to access the captured registers.
Resolves: #25576
`std.Io.tty.Config.detect` may be an expensive check (e.g. involving
syscalls), and doing it every time we need to print isn't really
necessary; under normal usage, we can compute the value once and cache
it for the whole program's execution. Since anyone outputting to stderr
may reasonably want this information (in fact they are very likely to),
it makes sense to cache it and return it from `lockStderrWriter`. Call
sites who do not need it will experience no significant overhead, and
can just ignore the TTY config with a `const w, _` destructure.
As with Solaris (dba1bf9353), we have no way to
actually audit contributions for these OSs. IBM also makes it even harder than
Oracle to actually obtain these OSs.

There is no straightforward way for the Zig team to access the Solaris system
headers; to do this, one has to create an Oracle account, accept their EULA to
download the installer ISO, and finally install it on a machine or VM. We do not
have to jump through hoops like this for any other OS that we support, and no
one on the team has expressed willingness to do it.
As a result, we cannot audit any Solaris contributions to std.c or other
similarly sensitive parts of the standard library. The best we would be able to
do is assume that Solaris and illumos are 100% compatible with no way to verify
that assumption. But at that point, the solaris and illumos OS tags would be
functionally identical anyway.
For Solaris especially, any contributions that involve APIs introduced after the
OS was made closed-source would also be inherently more risky than equivalent
contributions for other proprietary OSs due to the case of Google LLC v. Oracle
America, Inc., wherein Oracle clearly demonstrated its willingness to pursue
legal action against entities that merely copy API declarations.
Finally, Oracle laid off most of the Solaris team in 2017; the OS has been in
maintenance mode since, presumably to be retired completely sometime in the 2030s.
For these reasons, this commit removes all Oracle Solaris support.
Anyone who still wishes to use Zig on Solaris can try their luck by simply using
illumos instead of solaris in target triples - chances are it'll work. But there
will be no effort from the Zig team to support this use case; we recommend that
people move to illumos instead.
The ABIs do not define a frame pointer register, nor do they define a guaranteed
and fixed area on the stack where one might find saved registers such as a frame
pointer or return address.
The return address points to the call instruction on SPARC, so the actual return
address is 8 bytes after. This means that we shouldn't do the return address
adjustment that we normally do.
The FP would point to the register save area for the previous frame, while the
SP points to the register save area for the current frame. So use the latter.
I have no idea if this is a QEMU bug or real kernel behavior. Either way, the
register save area specifically exists for asynchronous spilling of incoming and
local registers, so there should be no harm in doing this.
I made a couple of decisions for this based on the fact that we don't expose the
signal_ucontext_t type outside of the file:
* Adding all the floating point and vector state to every ucontext_t and
mcontext_t variant was way, way too much work, especially when we don't even
use the stuff. So I deleted all that and kept only the bare minimum needed to
reach into general-purpose registers.
* There is no particularly compelling reason to stick to the naming and struct
nesting used in the system headers. So we can actually unify the access
patterns for almost all of these variants by taking some liberties here; as a
result, fromPosixSignalContext() is now much nicer to read and extend.
I broke this when porting this logic for the `std.debug` rework in
https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/25227. The offset that I copied was
actually being treated as relative to the address of the *saved* base
pointer. I think it makes more sense to do what I did and just treat all
offsets as relative to this frame's base.
