The problem was that types of non-anytype parameters were being included
as part of the check to see if generic function instantiations were
equal. Now, Module.Fn additionally stores the information for whether each
parameter is anytype or not. `generic_poison` cannot be used to signal
this because the type is still needed for comptime arguments; in such
case the type will not be present in the newly generated function
prototype.
This presented one additional challenge: we need to compare equality of
two values where one of them is post-coercion and the other is not. So
we make some minor adjustments to `Type.eql` to support this. I think
this small complexity tradeoff is worth it because it means the compiler
does much less work on the hot path that a generic function is called
and there is already an existing matching instantiation.

Sometimes we will want to generate debug info for a constant that
has been lowered to memory and not copied anywhere else. For this
we will need to defer resolution on PIE platforms until all locals
(including GOT entries) have been allocated.
Prior to this, Liveness encoded `asm`, `call`, and `aggregate_init` with
a single 32-bit integer, allowing up to 35 operands (3 are provided by
the regular tomb_bits). However, the Zig language allows function calls
with more than 35 arguments, inline assembly with more than 35 inputs,
and anonymous tuples with more than 35 elements.
The new encoding stores an index to the extra array instead of the bits
directly, and then as many extra elements as needed to encode all the
operands. The MSB is used as a flag to tell which element is the last
one, allowing for 31 bits per element.
Prior to this, print_air did not bother correctly printing tombstones
for these instructions; now it does.
In addition to updating the BigTomb iteration logic in the machine code
backends, this commit extracts the common logic into the Liveness namespace.
Previously it would fail as `renameW` do not ever fail with
`PathAlreadyExists`.
As a workaround we check for dest dir existence before rename
on Windows.
Compile error test cases can now be given as a sequence of files:
- "foo.1.zig"
- "foo.2.zig"
- "foo.3.zig"
- etc.
This sequence of files is tested as incremental compilation updates to a
single "foo.zig" source file.
To help avoid mistakes, we enforce strict ordering for these files.
"foo.zig" cannot co-exist with "foo.X.zig", the sequence must include
"foo.1.zig", and no numbers may be skipped.
This causes false positive "foo depends on itself" errors. Prior to some
recent enhancements, this type resolution was needed, however, we now
have a more sophisticated type resolution mechanism that fully
resolves types for the backend, but only after the Decl is fully
analyzed, avoiding dependency loops.
Previously, Zig would try to generate a function whose type contained
structs or unions which had not been fully resolved due to circular
dependency errors. With this commit, `resolveTypeFully` will be sure to
return `error.AnalysisFail` even in this scenario, leading to proper
display of compilation errors instead of a crash.
Rather than using blocks and control flow to check which operand is the maximum or minimum,
we use wasm's `select` instruction which returns us the operand based on a result from a comparison.
This saves us the need of control flow, as well as reduce the instruction count from 13 to 7.
Fixes#11353
The renderer treats comments and doc comments differently since doc
comments are parsed into the Ast. This commit adds a check after getting
the text for the doc comment and trims whitespace at the end before
rendering.
The `a = 0,` in the test is here to avoid a ParseError while parsing the
test.
Add support for emitting debug info for local variables within a subprogram.
This required moving bits responsible for populating the debug info back to
`CodeGen` from `Emit` as we require the operand to be resolved at callsite
plus we need to know its type. Without enforcing this, we could end up
with a `dead` mcv.
