Start implementing https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/4917 which is to rename instream/outstream to reader/writer. This first change allows code to use Writer/writer instead of OutStream/outStream, but still maintains the old outstream names with "Deprecated" comments.
* change miscellaneous things to more idiomatic zig style
* change the digest length to 24 bytes instead of 48. This is
still 70 more bits than UUIDs. For an analysis of probability of
collisions, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier#Collisions
* fix the API having the possibility of mismatched allocators
* fix some error paths to behave properly
* modify the guarantees about when file contents are loaded for input files
* pwrite instead of seek + write
* implement isProblematicTimestamp
* fix tests with regards to a working isProblematicTimestamp function.
this requires sleeping until the current timestamp becomes
unproblematic.
* introduce std.fs.File.INode, a cross platform type abstraction
so that cache hash implementation does not need to reach into std.os.
Remove the constants that assume a base unit in favor of explicit
x_per_y constants.
nanosecond calendar timestamps now use i128 for the type. This affects
fs.File.Stat, std.time.nanoTimestamp, and fs.File.updateTimes.
calendar timestamps are now signed, because the value can be less than
the epoch (the user can set their computer time to whatever they wish).
implement std.os.clock_gettime for Windows when clock id is
CLOCK_CALENDAR.
This rather large commit adds/fixes missing WASI functionality
in `libstd` needed to pass the `libstd` tests. As such, now by
default tests targeting `wasm32-wasi` target are enabled in
`test/tests.zig` module. However, they can be disabled by passing
the `-Dskip-wasi=true` flag when invoking the `zig build test`
command. When the flag is set to `false`, i.e., when WASI tests are
included, `wasmtime` with `--dir=.` is used as the default testing
command.
Since the majority of `libstd` tests were relying on `fs.cwd()`
call to get current working directory handle wrapped in `Dir`
struct, in order to make the tests WASI-friendly, `fs.cwd()`
call was replaced with `testing.getTestDir()` function which
resolved to either `fs.cwd()` for non-WASI targets, or tries to
fetch the preopen list from the WASI runtime and extract a
preopen for '.' path.
The summary of changes introduced by this commit:
* implement `Dir.makeDir` and `Dir.openDir` targeting WASI
* implement `Dir.deleteFile` and `Dir.deleteDir` targeting WASI
* fix `os.close` and map errors in `unlinkat`
* move WASI-specific `mkdirat` and `unlinkat` from `std.fs.wasi`
to `std.os` module
* implement `lseek_{SET, CUR, END}` targeting WASI
* implement `futimens` targeting WASI
* implement `ftruncate` targeting WASI
* implement `readv`, `writev`, `pread{v}`, `pwrite{v}` targeting WASI
* make sure ANSI escape codes are _not_ used in stderr or stdout
in WASI, as WASI always sanitizes stderr, and sanitizes stdout if
fd is a TTY
* fix specifying WASI rights when opening/creating files/dirs
* tweak `AtomicFile` to be WASI-compatible
* implement `os.renameatWasi` for WASI-compliant `os.renameat` function
* implement sleep() targeting WASI
* fix `process.getEnvMap` targeting WASI
* add TypedValue.Managed which represents a Type, a Value, and some
kind of memory management strategy.
* introduce an analysis queue
* flesh out how incremental compilation works with respect to exports
* ir.text.Module is only capable of one error message during parsing
* link.zig no longer has a decl table map and instead has structs that
exist directly on ir.Module.Decl and ir.Module.Export
* implement primitive .text block allocation
* implement linker code for updating Decls and Exports
* implement null Type
Some supporting std lib changes:
* add std.ArrayList.appendSliceAssumeCapacity
* add std.fs.File.copyRange and copyRangeAll
* fix std.HashMap having modification safety on in ReleaseSmall builds
* add std.HashMap.putAssumeCapacityNoClobber
Previously, the path and preopens helpers were prototyped in `std.os.wasi`
module, but since they are higher-level abstraction over wasi, they belong in
`std.fs.wasi` module.
Before it was possible for .intended_io_mode = .blocking,
.capable_io_mode = .evented, and then the implementation would put a
request on the fs thread, which is the wrong behavior. Now it always
calls the appropriate WriteFile/ReadFile function, passing the intended
io mode directly as a parameter.
This makes the behavior tests pass on Windows with --test-evented-io.
`flock` locks based on the file handle, instead of the process id.
This brings the file locking on unix based systems closer to file
locking on Windows.
Remove `std.fs.deleteTree`. Callers instead should use
`std.fs.cwd().deleteTree`.
Add `std.fs.deleteTreeAbsolute` for when the caller has an absolute
path.
The main goal here is to make the function pointers comptime, so that we
don't have to do the crazy stuff with async function frames.
Since InStream, OutStream, and SeekableStream are already generic
across error sets, it's not really worse to make them generic across the
vtable as well.
See #764 for the open issue acknowledging that using generics for these
abstractions is a design flaw.
See #130 for the efforts to make these abstractions non-generic.
This commit also changes the OutStream API so that `write` returns
number of bytes written, and `writeAll` is the one that loops until the
whole buffer is written.
