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.
This is not complete support for asm expressions, but allows a few more
test cases from test/behavior/asm.zig to pass. Since the non-register
inputs are named `input_${n}` they can cause name collisions: I'm
wrapping the asm expressions in their own block to prevent that.
Contextually, this change also makes test/behavior/asm.zig run for
stage2, but skips individual tests for most backends (I only verified
the C and LLVM backends successfully run one new test case) and the
entire test file for aarch64, where it's running into preexisting
shortcomings.
This commit introduces a new AIR instruction `cmp_lt_errors_len`. It's
specific to this use case for two reasons:
* The total number of errors is not stable during semantic analysis; it
can only be reliably checked when flush() is called. So the backend
that is lowering the instruction must emit a relocation of some kind
and then populate it during flush().
* The fewer AIR instructions in memory, the better for compiler
performance, so we squish complex meanings into AIR tags without
hesitation.
The instruction is implemented only in the LLVM backend so far. It does
this by creating a simple function which is gutted and re-populated
with each flush().
AstGen now uses ResultLoc.coerced_ty for `@intToError` and Sema does the
coercion.
Commit 052079c994 surfaced two issues with
the generated C code:
- renderInt128() contained a seemingly unnecessary assertion to verify
that the high 64 bits of the number were nonzero, dating back to
9bf1681990. I removed it.
- renderValue() didn't have any special handling for undefined structs,
falling back to printing "{}" which generated invalid expressions
such as "return {}" for functions returning structs, whereas
"return (S){}" is the correct form. I changed it accordingly.
At the same time I'm reenabling the relevant tests.
Sema:
* queue full resolution of std.builtin.Type.Error when doing `@typeInfo`
for error sets.
LLVM backend:
* change a TODO comment to a proper explanation of why debug info
for structs is left as a fwd decl sometimes.
* remove handling of packed unions which does not match the type
information or constant generation code.
* remove copy+pasted code
* fix union debug info not matching the memory layout
* remove unnecessary error checks and type casting
This includes various fixes/improvements to the C backend to improve
error/union support. It also fixes up our handling of decls, where some
decls were not correctly marked alive.
The existing `cmp_*` instructions get their result type from `lhs`, but
vector comparison will always return a vector of bools with only the
length derived from its operands. This necessitates the creation of a
new AIR instruction.
Notably, Value.eql and Value.hash are improved to treat NaN as equal to
itself, so that Type/Value can be hash map keys. Likewise float hashing
normalizes the float value before computing the hash.
* Sema: fix `zirTypeInfo` allocating with the wrong arenas for some
stuff.
* LLVM: split `airDbgInline` into two functions, one for each AIR tag.
- remove the redundant copy to type_map_arena. This is the first
thing that lowerDebugType does so this hack was probably just
accidentally avoiding UB (which is still present prior to this
commit).
- don't store an inline fn inst into the di_map for the generic
decl.
- use a dummy function type for the debug info to avoid whatever UB
is happening.
- we are now ignoring the function type passed in with the
dbg_inline_begin and dbg_inline_end.
* behavior tests: prepare the vector tests to be enabled one at a time.
Mitigates #11199.
Adds the sentinel element to the type name to avoid ambiguous
declarations, and outputs the sentinel element (if needed) even in what
would otherwise be empty arrays.
This involved some significant reworking in order to introduce the
concept of "forward declarations" to the system to break dependency
loops.
The `lowerDebugType` function now takes an `enum { full, fwd }` and is moved
from `DeclGen` to `Object` so that it can be called from `flushModule`.
`DITypeMap` is now an `ArrayHashMap` instead of a `HashMap` so that we can
iterate over the entries in `flushModule` and finalize the forward decl
DITypes into full DITypes.
`DITypeMap` now stores `AnnotatedDITypePtr` values instead of
`*DIType` values. This is an abstraction around a `usize` which assumes
the pointers will be at least 2 bytes aligned and uses the least
significant bit to store whether it is forward decl or a fully resolved
debug info type.
`lowerDebugTypeImpl` is extracted out from `lowerDebugType` and it has a
mechanism for completing a forward decl DIType to a fully resolved one.
The function now contains lowering for struct types. Closes#11095.
There is a workaround for struct types which have not had
`resolveFieldTypes` called in Sema, even by the time `flushModule` is
called. This is a deficiency of Sema that should be addressed, and the
workaround removed. I think Sema needs a new mechanism to queue up type
resolution work instead of doing it in-line, so that it does not cause
false dependency loops. We already have one failing behavior test
because of a false dependency loop.
This resolves https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/11159
The problem was that:
1. We were not correctly deleting the field stores after recognizing
that an array initializer was a comptime-known value.
2. LLVM was not checking that the final type had no runtime bits, and
so would generate an invalid store.
This also adds several test cases for related bugs, just to check these
in for later work.
* don't store `has_well_defined_layout` in memory.
* remove struct `hasWellDefinedLayout` logic. it's just
`layout != .Auto`. This means we only need one implementation, in
Type.
* fix some of the cases being wrong in `hasWellDefinedLayout`, such as
optional pointers.
* move `tag_ty_inferred` field into a position that makes it more
obvious how the struct layout will be done. Also we don't have a
compiler that intelligently moves fields around so this layout is
better.
* Sema: don't `resolveTypeLayout` in `zirCoerceResultPtr` unless
necessary.
* Rename `ComptimePtrLoadKit` `target` field to `pointee` to avoid
confusion with `target`.
We need to make sure that we bitcast our pointers correctly before
we use get_element_ptr to compute the offset for the parent
pointer.
This also includes a small fix-up for a problem where ptrs to const
i64/u64 were not using the correct type in >1-level decl chains
(where we call lowerParentPtr recursively)
LLVM backend: generate DIGlobalVariable's for non-function globals and
rename linkage names when exporting functions and globals.
zig_llvm.cpp: add some wrappers to convert a handful of DI classes
into DINode's since DIGlobalVariable is not a DIScope like the others.
zig_llvm.cpp: add some wrappers to allow replacing the LinkageName of
DISubprogram and DIGlobalVariable.
zig_llvm.cpp: fix DI class mixup causing nonsense reinterpret_cast.
The end result is that GDB is now usable since you now no longer need
to manually cast every global nor fully qualify every export.
It is possible for the value length to be longer than the type because
we allow in-memory coercing of types such as `[5:0]u8` to `[5]u8`. In
such a case, the value length is 6 but the type length if 5.
The `.repeated` value type already got this right, so this is extending
similar logic out to `.aggregate` and `.bytes`. Both scenarios are
tested in behavior tests.
Fixes#11165
This also surfaces the fact that clz, ctz and popCount didn't actually
support 128 bit integers, despite what was claimed by
226fcd7c70. This was partially hidden by
the fact that the test code for popCount only exercised 128 bit integers
in a comptime context. This commit duplicates that test case for runtime
ints too.
