This change was mostly made with `zig fmt` and this also modified some whitespace. Note that in some files, `zig fmt` produced incorrect code, so the change was made manually.
The new plan to support hobby operating systems is #3784.
And what kind of name is "Zen" anyway? There's already a
[Zen programming language](http://zenlang.sourceforge.net/)
and that's just confusing.
* Implements #3768. This is a sweeping breaking change that requires
many (trivial) edits to Zig source code. Array values no longer
coerced to slices; however one may use `&` to obtain a reference to
an array value, which may then be coerced to a slice.
* Adds `IrInstruction::dump`, for debugging purposes. It's useful to
call to inspect the instruction when debugging Zig IR.
* Fixes bugs with result location semantics. See the new behavior test
cases, and compile error test cases.
* Fixes bugs with `@typeInfo` not properly resolving const values.
* Behavior tests are passing but std lib tests are not yet. There
is more work to do before merging this branch.
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.
Thanks to the Windows Process Environment Block, it is possible to
obtain handles to the standard input, output, and error streams without
possibility of failure.
* 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.
* 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.
* Added `std.c.unlinkat` and `std.os.unlinkat`.
* Removed `std.fs.MAX_BUF_BYTES` (this declaration never made it to
master branch)
* Added `std.fs.Dir.deleteTree` to be used on an open directory handle.
* `std.fs.deleteTree` has better behavior for both relative and
absolute paths. For absolute paths, it opens the base directory
and uses that handle for subsequent operations. For relative paths,
it does a similar strategy, using the cwd handle.
* The error set of `std.fs.deleteTree` is improved to no longer have
these possible errors:
- OutOfMemory
- FileTooBig
- IsDir
- DirNotEmpty
- PathAlreadyExists
- NoSpaceLeft
* Added `std.fs.Dir.posix_cwd` which is a statically initialized
directory representing the current working directory.
* The error set of `std.Dir.open` is improved to no longer have these
possible errors:
- FileTooBig
- IsDir
- NoSpaceLeft
- PathAlreadyExists
- OutOfMemory
* Added more alternative functions to `std.fs` for when the path
parameter is a null terminated string. This can sometimes be more
effecient on systems which have an ABI based on null terminated
strings.
* Added `std.fs.Dir.openDir`, `std.fs.Dir.deleteFile`, and
`std.fs.Dir.deleteDir` which all operate on an open directory handle.
* `std.fs.Walker.Entry` now has a `dir` field, which can be used to do
operations directly on `std.fs.Walker.Entry.basename`, avoiding
`error.NameTooLong` for deeply nested paths.
* Added more docs to `std.os.OpenError`
This commit does the POSIX components for these changes. I plan to
follow up shortly with a commit for Windows.
* 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
This removes the odd width and precision specifiers found and replacing
them with the more consistent api described in #1358.
Take the following example:
{1:5.9}
This refers to the first argument (0-indexed) in the argument list. It
will be printed with a minimum width of 5 and will have a precision of 9
(if applicable).
Not all types correctly use these parameters just yet. There are still
some missing gaps to fill in. Fill characters and alignment have yet to
be implemented.
- wip for #2046
- clang .d output must be created with `clang -MV` switch
- implemented in Zig
- hybridized for zig stage0 and stage1
- zig test src-self-hosted/dep_tokenizer.zig
stage1 translate-c actually has this wrong. When exporting a function,
it's ok to use empty parameters. But for prototypes, "no prototype"
means that it has to be emitted as a function that accepts anything,
e.g. extern fn foo(...) void;
See #1964
and use it when building libuserland.a
The self-hosted part of stage1 relies on zig's compiler-rt, and so we
include it in libuserland.a.
This should potentially be the default, but for now it's behind a linker
option.
self-hosted translate-c: small progress on translating functions.
Previously, `zig fmt` on the stage1 compiler (which is what we currently
ship) would perform what equates to `zig run std/special/fmt_runner.zig`
Now, `zig fmt` is implemented with the hybrid zig/C++ strategy outlined
by #1964.
This means Zig no longer has to ship some of the stage2 .zig files, and
there is no longer a delay when running `zig fmt` for the first time.
This modifies the build process of Zig to put all of the source files
into libcompiler.a, except main.cpp and userland.cpp.
Next, the build process links main.cpp, userland.cpp, and libcompiler.a
into zig1. userland.cpp is a shim for functions that will later be
replaced with self-hosted implementations.
Next, the build process uses zig1 to build src-self-hosted/stage1.zig
into libuserland.a, which does not depend on any of the things that
are shimmed in userland.cpp, such as translate-c.
Finally, the build process re-links main.cpp and libcompiler.a, except
with libuserland.a instead of userland.cpp. Now the shims are replaced
with .zig code. This provides all of the Zig standard library to the
stage1 C++ compiler, and enables us to move certain things to userland,
such as translate-c.
As a proof of concept I have made the `zig zen` command use text defined
in userland. I added `zig translate-c-2` which is a work-in-progress
reimplementation of translate-c in userland, which currently calls
`std.debug.panic("unimplemented")` and you can see the stack trace makes
it all the way back into the C++ main() function (Thanks LemonBoy for
improving that!).
This could potentially let us move other things into userland, such as
hashing algorithms, the entire cache system, .d file parsing, pretty
much anything that libuserland.a itself doesn't need to depend on.
This can also let us have `zig fmt` in stage1 without the overhead
of child process execution, and without the initial compilation delay
before it gets cached.
See #1964
This effectively takes one-bit from the length field and uses it as the
sign bit. It reduces the size of an Int from 40 bits to 32 bits on a
64-bit arch.
This also reduces std.Rational from 80 bits to 64 bits.
Before, allocator implementations had to provide `allocFn`,
`reallocFn`, and `freeFn`.
Now, they must provide only `reallocFn` and `shrinkFn`.
Reallocating from a zero length slice is allocation, and
shrinking to a zero length slice is freeing.
When the new memory size is less than or equal to the
previous allocation size, `reallocFn` now has the option
to return `error.OutOfMemory` to indicate that the allocator
would not be able to take advantage of the new size.
For more details see #1306. This commit closes#1306.
This commit paves the way to solving #2009.
This commit also introduces a memory leak to all coroutines.
There is an issue where a coroutine calls the function and it
frees its own stack frame, but then the return value of `shrinkFn`
is a slice, which is implemented as an sret struct. Writing to
the return pointer causes invalid memory write. We could work
around it by having a global helper function which has a void
return type and calling that instead. But instead this hack will
suffice until I rework coroutines to be non-allocating. Basically
coroutines are not supported right now until they are reworked as
in #1194.
* CLI: `-target [name]` instead of `--target-*` args.
This matches clang's API.
* `builtin.Environ` renamed to `builtin.Abi`
- likewise `builtin.environ` renamed to `builtin.abi`
* stop hiding the concept of sub-arch. closes#1526
* `zig targets` only shows available targets. closes#438
* include all targets in readme, even those that don't
print with `zig targets` but note they are Tier 4
* refactor target.cpp and make the naming conventions
more consistent
* introduce the concept of a "default C ABI" for a given
OS/Arch combo. As a rule of thumb, if the system compiler
is clang or gcc then the default C ABI is the gnu ABI.
Mostly picking the same paths as FreeBSD.
We need a little special handling for crt files, as netbsd uses its
own (and not GCC's) for those, with slightly different names.
