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.
Previously the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release was conflicting with the
"distribution" directory `release`. I renamed this to `dist` so that
it won't conflict with any build types.
It was using __GNUC__ < 8 to check if _xgetbv intrinsic is available.
Since we always use zig cc with this header, we know we have clang 9,
which does have this intrinsic.
After upgrading to LLVM 9 we now have the emscripten OS available. Fix
the compile error in this function by specifying the default ABI for
emscripten.
* 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.
