- extracted functions
- factorised extern "C" into a block containing all function prototypes instead of writing macros all over the place
- using intermediate buffers instead of writing directly to the output file
this also deletes C string literals from the language, and then makes
the std lib changes and compiler changes necessary to get the behavior
tests and std lib tests passing again.
This removes the remaining hack in the implementation of anonymous
struct literals, and they can now therefore now have greater than 16
fields/elements.
This implements stage1 parser support for anonymous struct literal
syntax (see #685), as well as semantic analysis support for anonymous
struct literals and anonymous list literals (see #208). The semantic
analysis works when there is a type coercion in the result location;
inferring the struct type based on the values in the literal is not
implemented yet. Also remaining to do is zig fmt support for this new
syntax and documentation updates.
This commit also hooks up type coercion (previously called implicit
casting) into the result location mechanism, and additionally hooks up
variable declarations, maintaining the property that:
var a: T = b;
is semantically equivalent to:
var a = @as(T, b);

* delete the std/event/net directory
* `std.event.Loop.waitUntilFdReadable` and related functions
no longer have possibility of failure. On Linux, they fall
back to poll() and then fall back to sleep().
* add some missing `noasync` decorations in `std.event.Loop`
* redo the `std.net.Server` API. it's quite nice now, but
shutdown does not work cleanly. There is a race condition with
close() that I am actively working on.
* move `std.io.OutStream` to its own file to match `std.io.InStream`.
I started working on making `write` integrated with evented I/O,
but it got tricky so I backed off and filed #3557. However
I did integrate `std.os.writev` and `std.os.pwritev` with evented I/O.
* add `std.Target.stack_align`
* move networking tests to `lib/std/net/test.zig`
* add `std.net.tcpConnectToHost` and `std.net.tcpConnectToAddress`.
* rename `error.UnknownName` to `error.UnknownHostName` within the
context of DNS resolution.
* add `std.os.readv`, which is integrated with evented I/O.
* `std.os.preadv`, is now integrated with evented I/O.
* `std.os.accept4` now asserts that ENOTSOCK and EOPNOTSUPP never
occur (misuse of API), instead of returning errors.
* `std.os.connect` is now integrated with evented I/O.
`std.os.connect_async` is gone. Just use `std.os.connect`.
* fix false positive dependency loop regarding async function frames
* add more compile notes to help when dependency loops occur
in determining whether a function is async.
* ir: change an assert to ir_assert to make it easier to find
workarounds for when such an assert is triggered. In this case
it was trying to parse an IPv4 address at comptime.
d91fc0fdd8 changed zig's behavior to
disable the SSE feature when cross compiling for i386-freestanding.
This commit does the same when compiling C Code.
Clang does not support -march=native for all targets.
Arguably it should always work, but in reality it gives:
error: the clang compiler does not support '-march=native'
If we move CPU detection logic into Zig itelf, we will not need this,
instead we will always pass target features and CPU configuration explicitly.
For now, we simply avoid passing the flag when it is known to not be
supported.
* All the data types from `@import("builtin")` are moved to
`@import("std").builtin`. The target-related types are moved
to `std.Target`. This allows the data types to have methods, such as
`std.Target.current.isDarwin()`.
* `std.os.windows.subsystem` is moved to
`std.Target.current.subsystem`.
* Remove the concept of the panic package from the compiler
implementation. Instead, `std.builtin.panic` is always the panic
function. It checks for `@hasDecl(@import("root"), "panic")`,
or else provides a default implementation.
This is an important step for multibuilds (#3028). Without this change,
the types inside the builtin namespace look like different types, when
trying to merge builds with different target settings. With this change,
Zig can figure out that, e.g., `std.builtin.Os` (the enum type) from one
compilation and `std.builtin.Os` from another compilation are the same
type, even if the target OS value differs.
This brings the std lib tests down from 3.51 GiB memory usage
to 3.41 GiB, by making two fields that were 64 bits 32 bits.
This is a small thing; the bigger wins will come from the strategy
outlined in the previous commit.
* use erase rest of line escape code.
* use `stderr.supportsAnsiEscapeCodes` rather than `isTty`.
* respect `--color off`
* avoid unnecessary recursion
* add `Progress.log`
* disable the progress std lib test since it's noisy and uses
`time.sleep()`.
* enable/integrate progress printing with the default test runner
previously zig would look for all the .defs even when not needed,
wasting time. also, we only had samsrv definitions for some architectures.
remove cross compiling support for this.
`ir_resolve_str()` bug returns array expression even when when sliced
to a lesser length. Fix is to return array if slice.len == array.len,
otherwise return slice.
Bug report use-case is based on one builtin function. However, at least
the following builtins were exposed to the bug:
`@byteOffsetOf`
`@cDefine`
`@cImport`
`@cInclude`
`@cUndef`
`@compileError`
`@embedFile`
`@export`
`@fieldParentPtr`
`@hasDecl`
`@hasField`
`@import`
`@unionInit`
closes#3384
And then get the struct field astNodes through the containerDecl astNode.
The type of a struct field is still stored in the types array, but the
static information is in the astNodes.
Lift some code from llvm-dlltool, the lld code is meant to follow what
gnu ld does but that's not much useful for our purposes.
Also use the `--kill-at` option when generating the .lib files out of
mingw's .def files: this way our building process closely matches the
one use by the upstream and now finally generates files that allow both
C code and Zig code to link.
- during diagnostics the string representation for root was empty
and now is `(root)`
- retrofitted all other namespace-qualified type naming to elide
prefixing with root
closes#2032
- decls brought in via `usingnamespace` were not always found
because lookup was performed directly against decl_table and
use_decls was never consulted
- fix to use find_container_decl() path instead
- closes#3367
This commit adds `-fgenerate-docs` CLI option, and it outputs:
* doc/index.html
* doc/data.js
* doc/main.js
In this strategy, we have 1 static html page and 1 static javascript
file, which loads the semantic analysis dump directly and renders it
using dom manipulation.
Currently, all it does is list the declarations. But there is a lot more
data available to work with. The next step would be making the
declarations hyperlinks, and handling page navigation.
Another strategy would be to generate a static site with no javascript,
based on the semantic analysis dump that zig now provides. I invite the
Zig community to take on such a project. However this version which
heavily relies on javascript will also be a direction explored.
I also welcome contributors to improve the html, css, and javascript of
what this commit started, as well as whatever improvements are necessary
to the static analysis dumping code to provide more information.
See #21.
This commit adds -fdump-analysis which creates
a `$NAME-analysis.json` file with all of the finished
semantic analysis that the stage1 compiler produced.
It contains types, packages, declarations, and files.
This is an initial implementation; some data will be
missing. However it's easy to improve the implementation,
which is in `src/dump_analysis.cpp`.
The next step for #21 will be to create Zig code which parses
this json file and creates user-facing HTML documentation.
This feature has other uses, however; for example, it could
be used for IDE integration features until the self-hosted
compiler is available.
See #1964
translate_c.cpp now exclusively uses the clang API via zig_clang.h
shaves off 5 seconds from building zig when translate_c.cpp
(or any h files it uses) change.
previously zig would search up directory parents for
lib/zig/std/std.zig. It still does that, but now it also accepts
lib/std/std.zig. This will probably be how we start shipping windows
.zip files, since the extra directory is pointless.
It also means you can run zig binaries from subdirectories of the zig
source tree without lib files being installed.

armv8 removed the coprocessor instructions other than cp14, so
on an armv8 system the related hwcaps should never be set.
new llvm complains about the use of coprocessor instructions in
armv8-a mode (even though they are never executed at runtime),
so ifdef them out when musl is built for armv8.
<dalias> i think the patch looks ok
Until ability to specify target CPU features (#2883) is done, this
commit gives riscv target better default features.
This side-steps #3275 which is a deficiency in compiler-rt when features
do not include 32 bit integer division.
With this commit, RISC-V compiler-rt tests pass and Hello World works
both pure-zig and with musl libc.
Previously if the type parameter was a pointer, it would assert that the
size of the type was resolved. It used to be that the size of pointers was
always resolved, however with lazy values, pointers gained the
possibility of not having their size resolved.
Now, type_allowed_in_extern triggers the resolution of whether a pointer
is zero bits, and returns a possible error if the resolution fails.
This fixes a compiler assertion when building the
[zootdeck project](https://github.com/donpdonp/zootdeck). I do not have
a test case reduction for the issue.
* add zig build option `-Dskip-libc` to skip tests that build libc
(e.g. if you don't want to wait for musl to build)
* add `-Denable-wine` option which uses wine to run cross compiled
windows tests on non-windows hosts
* add `-Denable-qemu` option which uses qemu to run cross compiled
foreign architecture tests
* add `-Denable-foreign-glibc=path` option which combined with
`-Denable-qemu` enables running cross compiled tests that link
against glibc. See
https://github.com/ziglang/zig/wiki/Updating-libc#glibc for how to
produce this directory.
* the test matrix is done manually. release test builds are only
enabled by default for the native target. this should save us some CI
time, while still providing decent coverage of release builds.
- add test coverage for `x86_64-linux-musl -lc` (building musl libc)
- add test coverage for `x86_64-linux-gnu -lc` (building glibc)
- add test coverage for `aarch64v8_5a-linux-none`
- add test coverage for `aarch64v8_5a-linux-musl -lc` (building musl libc)
- add test coverage for `aarch64v8_5a-linux-gnu -lc` (building glibc)
- add test coverage for `arm-linux-none`
- test coverage for `arm-linux-musleabihf -lc` (building musl libc) is
disabled due to #3286
- test coverage for `arm-linux-gnueabihf -lc` (building glibc) is disabled
due to #3287
- test coverage for `x86_64-windows-gnu -lc` (building mingw-w64) is
disabled due to #3285
* enable qemu testing on the Linux CI job. There's not really a good
reason to enable wine, since we have a Windows CI job as well.
* remove the no longer needed `--build-file ../build.zig` from CI
scripts
* fix bug in glibc compilation where it wasn't properly reading the abi
list txt files, resulting in "key not found" error.
* std.build.Target gains:
- isNetBSD
- isLinux
- osRequiresLibC
- getArchPtrBitWidth
- getExternalExecutor
* zig build system gains support for enabling wine and enabling qemu.
`artifact.enable_wine = true;`, `artifact.enable_qemu = true;`. This
communicates that the system has these tools installed and the build
system will use them to run tests.
* zig build system gains support for overriding the dynamic linker of
an executable artifact.
* fix std.c.lseek prototype. makes behavior tests for
arm-linux-musleabihf pass.
* disable std lib tests that are failing on ARM. See #3288, #3289
* provide `std.os.off_t`.
* disable some of the compiler_rt symbols for arm 32 bit. Fixes
compiler_rt tests for arm 32 bit
* add __stack_chk_guard when linking against glibc. Fixes std lib tests
for aarch64-linux-gnu
* workaround for "unable to inline function" using `@inlineCall`. Fixes
compiler_rt tests for arm 32 bit.
- bug presented on FreeBSD when `/proc` filesystem is not mounted
- bogus `cc` was used as exename, causing incorrect executable spawn
- llvm::sys::fs::getMainExecutable() has platform-specific code
to get exename and fallback is to use param argv0
- linux fallback is rare because `/proc` is usually mounted
- *BSD fallback is not rare because `/proc` is often not mounted
- macOS doesn't ever fallback: bug cannot present
- windows doesn't ever fallback: bug cannot present
- other Posix will always present
Currently, slices are passed via reference, even though it would be
better to pass the ptr and len as separate arguments (#561). This means
that any function call with a slice parameter cannot be a tail call,
because according to LLVM spec:
> Both [tail,musttail] markers imply that the callee does not access
> allocas from the caller
There was one other place we were setting `tail` and I made that
conditional on whether or not the argument referenced allocas in the
caller.
This was causing undefined behavior in the compiler when it hit asserts,
causing it to print garbage memory to the terminal. See #3262 for
example.
