The bugs here actually exist on master branch too, but they are being
caught by the new static assertions which check type size and alignment.
It turns out that MSVC's struct/union "pack" pragma and its "align"
declspec interact in undocumented ways which are extremely problematic
for generated code. Solving this will require changing how the C backend
lowers various types; the disabled tests are all tagged unions, but
there are also issues with structs with underaligned fields which the
behavior tests just happen to not currently be triggering.
Also remove `@frameSize`, closing #3654.
While the other machinery might remain depending on #23446, it is
settled that there will not be `async`/ `await` keywords in the
language.
This was done by regex substitution with `sed`. I then manually went
over the entire diff and fixed any incorrect changes.
This diff also changes a lot of `callconv(.C)` to `callconv(.c)`, since
my regex happened to also trigger here. I opted to leave these changes
in, since they *are* a correct migration, even if they're not the one I
was trying to do!
The compiler actually doesn't need any functional changes for this: Sema
does reification based on the tag indices of `std.builtin.Type` already!
So, no zig1.wasm update is necessary.
This change is necessary to disallow name clashes between fields and
decls on a type, which is a prerequisite of #9938.
What is `sparcel`, you might ask? Good question!
If you take a peek in the SPARC v8 manual, §2.2, it is quite explicit that SPARC
v8 is a big-endian architecture. No little-endian or mixed-endian support to be
found here.
On the other hand, the SPARC v9 manual, in §3.2.1.2, states that it has support
for mixed-endian operation, with big-endian mode being the default.
Ok, so `sparcel` must just be referring to SPARC v9 running in little-endian
mode, surely?
Nope:
* https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/40b4fd7a3e81d32b29364a1b15337bcf817659c0/llvm/lib/Target/Sparc/SparcTargetMachine.cpp#L226
* https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/40b4fd7a3e81d32b29364a1b15337bcf817659c0/llvm/lib/Target/Sparc/SparcTargetMachine.cpp#L104
So, `sparcel` in LLVM is referring to some sort of fantastical little-endian
SPARC v8 architecture. I've scoured the internet and I can find absolutely no
evidence that such a thing exists or has ever existed. In fact, I can find no
evidence that a little-endian implementation of SPARC v9 ever existed, either.
Or any SPARC version, actually!
The support was added here: https://reviews.llvm.org/D8741
Notably, there is no mention whatsoever of what CPU this might be referring to,
and no justification given for the "but some are little" comment added in the
patch.
My best guess is that this might have been some private exercise in creating a
little-endian version of SPARC that never saw the light of day. Given that SPARC
v8 explicitly doesn't support little-endian operation (let alone little-endian
instruction encoding!), and no CPU is known to be implemented as such, I think
it's very reasonable for us to just remove this support.
This is a misfeature that we inherited from LLVM:

* https://reviews.llvm.org/D61939
(`aarch64_32` and `arm64_32` are equivalent.)
I truly have no idea why this triple passed review in LLVM. It is, to date, the
*only* tag in the architecture component that is not, in fact, an architecture.
In reality, it is just an ILP32 ABI for AArch64 (*not* AArch32).
The triples that use `aarch64_32` look like `aarch64_32-apple-watchos`. Yes,
that triple is exactly what you think; it has no ABI component. They really,
seriously did this.
Since only Apple could come up with silliness like this, it should come as no
surprise that no one else uses `aarch64_32`. Later on, a GNU ILP32 ABI for
AArch64 was developed, and support was added to LLVM:
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D94143
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D104931
Here, sanity seems to have prevailed, and a triple using this ABI looks like
`aarch64-linux-gnu_ilp32` as you would expect.
As can be seen from the diffs in this commit, there was plenty of confusion
throughout the Zig codebase about what exactly `aarch64_32` was. So let's just
remove it. In its place, we'll use `aarch64-watchos-ilp32`,
`aarch64-linux-gnuilp32`, and so on. We'll then translate these appropriately
when talking to LLVM. Hence, this commit adds the `ilp32` ABI tag (we already
have `gnuilp32`).
Reorganize how the binOp and genBinOp functions work.
I've spent quite a while here reading exactly through the spec and so many
tests are enabled because of several critical issues the old design had.
There are some regressions that will take a long time to figure out individually
so I will ignore them for now, and pray they get fixed by themselves. When
we're closer to 100% passing is when I will start diving into them one-by-one.
- implements `airSlice`, `airBitAnd`, `airBitOr`, `airShr`.
- got a basic design going for the `airErrorName` but for some reason it simply returns
empty bytes. will investigate further.
- only generating `.got.zig` entries when not compiling an object or shared library
- reduced the total amount of ops a mnemonic can have to 3, simplifying the logic
this one is even harder to document then the last large overhaul.
TLDR;
- split apart Emit.zig into an Emit.zig and a Lower.zig
- created seperate files for the encoding, and now adding a new instruction
is as simple as just adding it to a couple of switch statements and providing the encoding.
- relocs are handled in a more sane maner, and we have a clear defining boundary between
lea_symbol and load_symbol now.
- a lot of different abstractions for things like the stack, memory, registers, and others.
- we're using x86_64's FrameIndex now, which simplifies a lot of the tougher design process.
- a lot more that I don't have the energy to document. at this point, just read the commit itself :p
LLVMABIAlignmentOfType(i128) reports 16 on this target, however the C
ABI uses align(4).
Clang in LLVM 17 does this:
%struct.foo = type { i32, i128 }
Clang in LLVM 18 does this:
%struct.foo = type <{ i32, i128 }>
Clang is working around the 16-byte alignment to use align(4) for the C
ABI by making the LLVM struct packed.
There is no way to know the expected parent pointer attributes (most
notably alignment) from the type of the field pointer, so provide them
in the first argument.
