* Fix codegen for splat - instead of giving vectors of length N
to shufflevector for both of the operands, it gives vectors of length
1. The mask vector is the only one that needs N elements.
* Separate Splat into SplatSrc and SplatGen; the `len` is not needed
once it gets to codegen since it is redundant with the result type.
* Refactor compile error for wrong vector element type so that the
compile error message is not duplicated in zig source code
* Improve implementation to correctly handle comptime values such as
undefined and lazy values.
* Improve compile error for bad vector element type to point to the
correct place.
* Delete dead code.
* Modify behavior test to use an array cast instead of vector element
indexing since I'm merging this splat commit out-of-order from
Shawn's patch set.
* update documentation
- move `@shuffle` to be sorted alphabetically
- remove mention of LLVM
- minor clarifications & rewording
* introduce ir_resolve_vector_elem_type to avoid duplicate compile
error message and duplicate vector element checking logic
* rework ir_analyze_shuffle_vector to solve various issues
* improve `@shuffle` to allow implicit cast of arrays
* the shuffle tests weren't being run
I change the semantics of the mask operand, to make it a little more
flexible. There is no real danger in this because it is a compile-error
if you do it the LLVM way (and there is an appropiate error to tell you
this).
v2: avoid problems with double-free
* `await @asyncCall` generates better code. See #3065
* `@asyncCall` works with a real `@Frame(func)` in addition to
a byte slice. Closes#3072
* `@asyncCall` allows passing `{}` (a void value) as the result
pointer, which uses the result location inside the frame.
Closes#3068
* support `await @asyncCall` on a non-async function. This is in
preparation for safe recursion (#1006).
It used to be that usingnamespace was only allowed at top level. This
made it OK to put the state inside the AST node data structure. However,
now usingnamespace can occur inside any aggregate data structure, and
therefore the state must be in the TopLevelDeclaration rather than in
the AST node.
There were two other problems with the usingnamespace implementation:
* It was passing the wrong destination ScopeDecl, so it could cause an
incorrect error such as "import of file outside package path".
* When doing `usingnamespace` on a file that already had
`pub usingnamespace` in it would "steal" the usingnamespace, causing
incorrect "use of undeclared identifier" errors in the target file.
