There is no straightforward way for the Zig team to access the Solaris system
headers; to do this, one has to create an Oracle account, accept their EULA to
download the installer ISO, and finally install it on a machine or VM. We do not
have to jump through hoops like this for any other OS that we support, and no
one on the team has expressed willingness to do it.
As a result, we cannot audit any Solaris contributions to std.c or other
similarly sensitive parts of the standard library. The best we would be able to
do is assume that Solaris and illumos are 100% compatible with no way to verify
that assumption. But at that point, the solaris and illumos OS tags would be
functionally identical anyway.
For Solaris especially, any contributions that involve APIs introduced after the
OS was made closed-source would also be inherently more risky than equivalent
contributions for other proprietary OSs due to the case of Google LLC v. Oracle
America, Inc., wherein Oracle clearly demonstrated its willingness to pursue
legal action against entities that merely copy API declarations.
Finally, Oracle laid off most of the Solaris team in 2017; the OS has been in
maintenance mode since, presumably to be retired completely sometime in the 2030s.
For these reasons, this commit removes all Oracle Solaris support.
Anyone who still wishes to use Zig on Solaris can try their luck by simply using
illumos instead of solaris in target triples - chances are it'll work. But there
will be no effort from the Zig team to support this use case; we recommend that
people move to illumos instead.

This type is useful for two things:
* Doing non-local control flow with ucontext.h functions.
* Inspecting machine state in a signal handler.
The first use case is not one we support; we no longer expose bindings to those
functions in the standard library. They're also deprecated in POSIX and, as a
result, not available in musl.
The second use case is valid, but is very poorly served by the standard library.
As evidenced by my changes to std.debug.cpu_context.signal_context_t, users will
be better served rolling their own ucontext_t and especially mcontext_t types
which fit their specific situation. Further, these types tend to evolve
frequently as architectures evolve, and the standard library has not done a good
job keeping up, or even providing them for all supported targets.

Mostly on macOS, since Loris showed me a not-great stack trace, and I
spent 8 hours trying to make it better. The dyld shared cache is
designed in a way which makes this really hard to do right, and
documentation is non-existent, but this *seems* to work pretty well.
I'll leave the ruling on whether I did a good job to CI and our users.

Our usage of `ucontext_t` in the standard library was kind of
problematic. We unnecessarily mimiced libc-specific structures, and our
`getcontext` implementation was overkill for our use case of stack
tracing.
This commit introduces a new namespace, `std.debug.cpu_context`, which
contains "context" types for various architectures (currently x86,
x86_64, ARM, and AARCH64) containing the general-purpose CPU registers;
the ones needed in practice for stack unwinding. Each implementation has
a function `current` which populates the structure using inline
assembly. The structure is user-overrideable, though that should only be
necessary if the standard library does not have an implementation for
the *architecture*: that is to say, none of this is OS-dependent.
Of course, in POSIX signal handlers, we get a `ucontext_t` from the
kernel. The function `std.debug.cpu_context.fromPosixSignalContext`
converts this to a `std.debug.cpu_context.Native` with a big ol' target
switch.
This functionality is not exposed from `std.c` or `std.posix`, and
neither are `ucontext_t`, `mcontext_t`, or `getcontext`. The rationale
is that these types and functions do not conform to a specific ABI, and
in fact tend to get updated over time based on CPU features and
extensions; in addition, different libcs use different structures which
are "partially compatible" with the kernel structure. Overall, it's a
mess, but all we need is the kernel context, so we can just define a
kernel-compatible structure as long as we don't claim C compatibility by
putting it in `std.c` or `std.posix`.
This change resulted in a few nice `std.debug` simplifications, but
nothing too noteworthy. However, the main benefit of this change is that
DWARF unwinding---sometimes necessary for collecting stack traces
reliably---now requires far less target-specific integration.
Also fix a bug I noticed in `PageAllocator` (I found this due to a bug
in my distro's QEMU distribution; thanks, broken QEMU patch!) and I
think a couple of minor bugs in `std.debug`.

std: Add several sockopt-related constants and structs
|
|
|
|
Because these lists are very long in several cases and quite
varied, I opted to place them in the existing c/foo.zig files.
There are many other sets of network-related constants like this
to add over time across all the OSes. For now I picked these
because I needed a few constants from each of these namespaces for
my own project, so I tried to flesh out these namespaces
completely as best I could, at least for basic sockopt purposes.
Note windows has some of these already defined in ws2_32 as
individual constants rather than contained in a namespacing
struct. I'm not sure what to do with that in the long run (break
it and namespace them?), but this doesn't change the status quo
for windows in any case.

Previously we had a single definition of std.c.cmsghdr for all
libc-linking platforms which aliased from the Solaris definition,
a superfluous matching one in std.os.dragonfly, and no others.
The existing definition from std.c didn't actually work for Linux,
as Linux's "len" field is usize in the kernel's definition.
Emscripten follows the Linux model of course (but uses the
binary-compatible musl definition, which has an endian-sensitive
padding scheme to make the len type "socklen_t" even though the
kernel uses a usize, which is fair).
This unifies and documents all the known *nix-ish cases (I'm not
sure if wasi or windows really has cmsghdr support? Could be added
later, void for now), such that c.cmsghdr and posix.system.cmsghdr
should work correctly for all the known cases here, libc or
otherwise.

This mainly just moves stuff around.
Justifications for other changes:
* `KEVENT.FLAGS` is backed by `c_uint` because that's what the `kevent64` flags param takes (according to the 'latest' manpage from 2008)
* `MACH_RCV_NOTIFY` is a legacy name and `MACH_RCV_OVERWRITE` is deprecated (xnu/osfmk/mach/message.h), so I removed them. They were 0 anyway and thus couldn't be represented
as a packed struct field.
* `MACH.RCV` and `MACH.SEND` are technically the same 'type' because they can both be supplied at the same time to `mach_msg`. I decided to still keep them separate because
naming works out better that way and all flags except for `MACH_MSG_STRICT_REPLY` aren't shared anyway. Both are part of a packed union `mach_msg_option_t` which supplies a
helper function to combine the two types.
* `PT` is backed by `c_int` because that's what `ptrace` takes as a request arg (according to the latest manpage from 2015)

Export the sigset_t ops (sigaddset, etc) from the C library. Don't rely
on the linux.zig defintions (which will be defined to use the kernel ABI).
Move Darwin sigset and NSIG declarations into darwin.zig. Remove
extraneous (?) sigaddset. The C library sigaddset can reject some signals
being added, so need to defer to it.

Functions like isMinGW() and isGnuLibC() have a good reason to exist: They look
at multiple components of the target. But functions like isWasm(), isDarwin(),
isGnu(), etc only exist to save 4-8 characters. I don't think this is a good
enough reason to keep them, especially given that:
* It's not immediately obvious to a reader whether target.isDarwin() means the
same thing as target.os.tag.isDarwin() precisely because isMinGW() and similar
functions *do* look at multiple components.
* It's not clear where we would draw the line. The logical conclusion before
this commit would be to also wrap Arch.isX86(), Os.Tag.isSolarish(),
Abi.isOpenHarmony(), etc... this obviously quickly gets out of hand.
* It's nice to just have a single correct way of doing something.

Turns out this was already fixed in #21964.
I have no idea why GitHub showed an incorrect diff in #21273, or how applying the diff to master was even possible, but here we are.

This was done by regex substitution with `sed`. I then manually went
over the entire diff and fixed any incorrect changes.
This diff also changes a lot of `callconv(.C)` to `callconv(.c)`, since
my regex happened to also trigger here. I opted to leave these changes
in, since they *are* a correct migration, even if they're not the one I
was trying to do!

#21094
|
|
The compiler actually doesn't need any functional changes for this: Sema
does reification based on the tag indices of `std.builtin.Type` already!
So, no zig1.wasm update is necessary.
This change is necessary to disallow name clashes between fields and
decls on a type, which is a prerequisite of #9938.

It is now composed of these main sections:
* Declarations that are shared among all operating systems.
* Declarations that have the same name, but different type signatures
depending on the operating system. Often multiple operating systems
share the same type signatures however.
* Declarations that are specific to a single operating system.
- These are imported one per line so you can see where they come from,
protected by a comptime block to prevent accessing the wrong one.
Closes #19352 by changing the convention to making types `void` and
functions `{}`, so that it becomes possible to update `@hasDecl` sites
to use `@TypeOf(f) != void` or `T != void`. Happily, this ended up
removing some duplicate logic and update some bitrotted feature
detection checks.
A handful of types have been modified to gain namespacing and type
safety. This is a breaking change.
Oh, and the last usage of `usingnamespace` site is eliminated.

The eventfd system call and dup3 library call have been available
since FreeBSD 13 and 10 respectively, and are thus available in
all [FreeBSD releases not deemed EOL](<https://endoflife.date/freebsd>)
The lack of these were discovered when porting a terminal emulator
to FreeBSD. It would be nice to have them included in Zig's stdlib.

Using std.os.linux directly in e.g. std.posix.timerfd_create() causes
the function to compile but silently fail at runtime when targeting any
OS other than Linux.
To catch errors like this at compile time, std.os.linux must only be
directly accessed within std.posix where there has been a comptime check
that the target os is in fact Linux.
|
|
I believe this was accidentally broken when the E enum for errno values
was introduces. These functions are quite the special case in that they
return the error value directly rather than returning -1 and passing the
error value through the errno variable.
In any case, using a u16 as the return type at the ABI boundary where a
c_int is expected is asking for trouble.
|
|
Using structs with unspecified layout on the ABI boundry can't end well.
|

Also removes the LOCK namespace from std.c.wasi because wasi libc does
not have flock.

A pointer type already has an alignment, so this information does not
need to be duplicated on the function type. This already has precedence
with addrspace which is already disallowed on function types for this
reason. Also fixes `@TypeOf(&func)` to have the correct addrspace and
alignment.
