`std.Io.tty.Config.detect` may be an expensive check (e.g. involving
syscalls), and doing it every time we need to print isn't really
necessary; under normal usage, we can compute the value once and cache
it for the whole program's execution. Since anyone outputting to stderr
may reasonably want this information (in fact they are very likely to),
it makes sense to cache it and return it from `lockStderrWriter`. Call
sites who do not need it will experience no significant overhead, and
can just ignore the TTY config with a `const w, _` destructure.

only thing remaining is using libc dns resolution when linking libc

This allows more bytes to be referenced by a smaller index range.
Closes #22867

Far simpler, because everything which `crash_report.zig` did is now
handled pretty well by `std.debug` anyway. All we want is to print some
context around panics and segfaults. Using the new ability to override
the default segfault handler while still having std handle the
target-specific bits for us, that's really simple.

This iteration already has significantly better incremental support.

If the `nav_ty` is resolved by the `nav_val`, then we need to also mark
the `nav_ty` as in progress when we begin resolving the `nav_val`.

This bug was manifesting for user as a nasty link error because they
were calling their application's main entry point as a coerced function,
which essentially broke reference tracking for the entire ZCU, causing
exported symbols to silently not get exported.
I've been a little unsure about how coerced functions should interact
with the unit graph before, but the solution is actually really obvious
now: they shouldn't! `Sema` is now responsible for unwrapping
possibly-coerced functions *before* queuing analysis or marking unit
references. This makes the reference graph optimal (there are no
redundant edges representing coerced versions of the same function) and
simplifies logic elsewhere at the expense of just a few lines in Sema.
|
|
|
|
In the best case, this is redundant work, because we aren't actually
going to emit a working binary this update. In the worst case, it causes
bugs because the linker may not have *seen* the thing being exported due
to the compile errors.

This commit expands on the foundations laid by https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/23177
and moves even more `Sema`-only functionality from `Value`
to `Sema.arith`. Specifically all shift and bitwise operations,
`@truncate`, `@bitReverse` and `@byteSwap` have been moved and
adapted to the new rules around `undefined`.
Especially the comptime shift operations have been basically
rewritten, fixing many open issues in the process.
New rules applied to operators:
* `<<`, `@shlExact`, `@shlWithOverflow`, `>>`, `@shrExact`: compile error if any operand is undef
* `<<|`, `~`, `^`, `@truncate`, `@bitReverse`, `@byteSwap`: return undef if any operand is undef
* `&`, `|`: Return undef if both operands are undef, turn undef into actual `0xAA` bytes otherwise
Additionally this commit canonicalizes the representation of
aggregates with all-undefined members in the `InternPool` by
disallowing them and enforcing the usage of a single typed
`undef` value instead. This reduces the amount of edge cases
and fixes a bunch of bugs related to partially undefined vecs.
List of operations directly affected by this patch:
* `<<`, `<<|`, `@shlExact`, `@shlWithOverflow`
* `>>`, `@shrExact`
* `&`, `|`, `~`, `^` and their atomic rmw + reduce pendants
* `@truncate`, `@bitReverse`, `@byteSwap`

spirv: refactor and remove deduplication ISel

This use case is handled by ArrayListUnmanaged via the "...Bounded"
method variants, and it's more optimal to share machine code, versus
generating multiple versions of each function for differing array

This commit replaces the "fuzzer" UI, previously accessed with the
`--fuzz` and `--port` flags, with a more interesting web UI which allows
more interactions with the Zig build system. Most notably, it allows
accessing the data emitted by a new "time report" system, which allows
users to see which parts of Zig programs take the longest to compile.
The option to expose the web UI is `--webui`. By default, it will listen
on `[::1]` on a random port, but any IPv6 or IPv4 address can be
specified with e.g. `--webui=[::1]:8000` or `--webui=127.0.0.1:8000`.
The options `--fuzz` and `--time-report` both imply `--webui` if not
given. Currently, `--webui` is incompatible with `--watch`; specifying
both will cause `zig build` to exit with a fatal error.
When the web UI is enabled, the build runner spawns the web server as
soon as the configure phase completes. The frontend code consists of one
HTML file, one JavaScript file, two CSS files, and a few Zig source
files which are built into a WASM blob on-demand -- this is all very
similar to the old fuzzer UI. Also inherited from the fuzzer UI is that
the build system communicates with web clients over a WebSocket
connection.
When the build finishes, if `--webui` was passed (i.e. if the web server
is running), the build runner does not terminate; it continues running
to serve web requests, allowing interactive control of the build system.
In the web interface is an overall "status" indicating whether a build
is currently running, and also a list of all steps in this build. There
are visual indicators (colors and spinners) for in-progress, succeeded,
and failed steps. There is a "Rebuild" button which will cause the build
system to reset the state of every step (note that this does not affect
caching) and evaluate the step graph again.
If `--time-report` is passed to `zig build`, a new section of the
interface becomes visible, which associates every build step with a
"time report". For most steps, this is just a simple "time taken" value.
However, for `Compile` steps, the compiler communicates with the build
system to provide it with much more interesting information: time taken
for various pipeline phases, with a per-declaration and per-file
breakdown, sorted by slowest declarations/files first. This feature is
still in its early stages: the data can be a little tricky to
understand, and there is no way to, for instance, sort by different
properties, or filter to certain files. However, it has already given us
some interesting statistics, and can be useful for spotting, for
instance, particularly complex and slow compile-time logic.
Additionally, if a compilation uses LLVM, its time report includes the
"LLVM pass timing" information, which was previously accessible with the
(now removed) `-ftime-report` compiler flag.
To make time reports more useful, ZIR and compilation caches are ignored
by the Zig compiler when they are enabled -- in other words, `Compile`
steps *always* run, even if their result should be cached. This means
that the flag can be used to analyze a project's compile time without
having to repeatedly clear cache directory, for instance. However, when
using `-fincremental`, updates other than the first will only show you
the statistics for what changed on that particular update. Notably, this
gives us a fairly nice way to see exactly which declarations were
re-analyzed by an incremental update.
If `--fuzz` is passed to `zig build`, another section of the web
interface becomes visible, this time exposing the fuzzer. This is quite
similar to the fuzzer UI this commit replaces, with only a few cosmetic
tweaks. The interface is closer than before to supporting multiple fuzz
steps at a time (in line with the overall strategy for this build UI,
the goal will be for all of the fuzz steps to be accessible in the same
interface), but still doesn't actually support it. The fuzzer UI looks
quite different under the hood: as a result, various bugs are fixed,
although other bugs remain. For instance, viewing the source code of any
file other than the root of the main module is completely broken (as on
master) due to some bogus file-to-module assignment logic in the fuzzer
UI.
Implementation notes:
* The `lib/build-web/` directory holds the client side of the web UI.
* The general server logic is in `std.Build.WebServer`.
* Fuzzing-specific logic is in `std.Build.Fuzz`.
* `std.Build.abi` is the new home of `std.Build.Fuzz.abi`, since it now
relates to the build system web UI in general.
* The build runner now has an **actual** general-purpose allocator,
because thanks to `--watch` and `--webui`, the process can be
arbitrarily long-lived. The gpa is `std.heap.DebugAllocator`, but the
arena remains backed by `std.heap.page_allocator` for efficiency. I
fixed several crashes caused by conflation of `gpa` and `arena` in the
build runner and `std.Build`, but there may still be some I have
missed.
* The I/O logic in `std.Build.WebServer` is pretty gnarly; there are a
*lot* of threads involved. I anticipate this situation improving
significantly once the `std.Io` interface (with concurrency support)
is introduced.

until now these were stringly typed.
it's kinda obvious when you think about it.

Rather than having the endian-suffixed functions be the preferred ones
the unsuffixed ones are the preferred ones and the tricky functions get
a special suffix.
Makes packed structs read and written the same as integers.

Did you know that allocators reuse addresses? If not, then don't feel
bad, because apparently I don't either! This dumb mistake was probably
responsible for the CI failures on `master` yesterday.

I messed up atomic orderings on this variable because they changed in a
local refactor at some point. We need to always release on the store and
acquire on the loads so that a linker thread observing `.ready` sees the
stored MIR.

Update the estimated total items for the codegen and link progress nodes
earlier. Rather than waiting for the main thread to dispatch the tasks,
we can add the item to the estimated total as soon as we queue the main
task. The only difference is we need to complete it even in error cases.
|

Previously, `PerThread.populateTestFunctions` was analyzing the
`test_functions` declaration if it hadn't already been analyzed, so that
it could then populate it. However, the logic for doing this wasn't
actually correct, because it didn't trigger the necessary type
resolution. I could have tried to fix this, but there's actually a
simpler solution! If the `test_functions` declaration isn't referenced
or has a compile error, then we simply don't need to update it; either
it's unreferenced so its value doesn't matter, or we're going to get a
compile error anyway. Either way, we can just give up early. This avoids
doing semantic analysis after `performAllTheWork` finishes.
Also, get rid of the "Code Generation" progress node while updating the
test decl: this is a linking task.

* "Flush" nodes ("LLVM Emit Object", "ELF Flush") appear under "Linking"
* "Code Generation" disappears when all analysis and codegen is done
* We only show one node under "Semantic Analysis" to accurately convey
that analysis isn't happening in parallel, but rather that we're
pausing one task to do another

When the name strategy is `.parent`, the DWARF info really wants to know
what `Nav` we were named after to emit a more optimal hierarchy.

Previously, various doc comments heavily disagreed with the
implementation on both what lives where on the filesystem at what time,
and how that was represented in code. Notably, the combination of emit
paths outside the cache and `disable_lld_caching` created a kind of
ad-hoc "cache disable" mechanism -- which didn't actually *work* very
well, 'most everything still ended up in this cache. There was also a
long-standing issue where building using the LLVM backend would put a
random object file in your cwd.
This commit reworks how emit paths are specified in
`Compilation.CreateOptions`, how they are represented internally, and
how the cache usage is specified.
There are now 3 options for `Compilation.CacheMode`:
* `.none`: do not use the cache. The paths we have to emit to are
relative to the compiler cwd (they're either user-specified, or
defaults inferred from the root name). If we create any temporary
files (e.g. the ZCU object when using the LLVM backend) they are
emitted to a directory in `local_cache/tmp/`, which is deleted once
the update finishes.
* `.whole`: cache the compilation based on all inputs, including file
contents. All emit paths are computed by the compiler (and will be
stored as relative to the local cache directory); it is a CLI error to
specify an explicit emit path. Artifacts (including temporary files)
are written to a directory under `local_cache/tmp/`, which is later
renamed to an appropriate `local_cache/o/`. The caller (who is using
`--listen`; e.g. the build system) learns the name of this directory,
and can get the artifacts from it.
* `.incremental`: similar to `.whole`, but Zig source file contents, and
anything else which incremental compilation can handle changes for, is
not included in the cache manifest. We don't need to do the dance
where the output directory is initially in `tmp/`, because our digest
is computed entirely from CLI inputs.
To be clear, the difference between `CacheMode.whole` and
`CacheMode.incremental` is unchanged. `CacheMode.none` is new
(previously it was sort of poorly imitated with `CacheMode.whole`). The
defined behavior for temporary/intermediate files is new.
`.none` is used for direct CLI invocations like `zig build-exe foo.zig`.
The other cache modes are reserved for `--listen`, and the cache mode in
use is currently just based on the presence of the `-fincremental` flag.
There are two cases in which `CacheMode.whole` is used despite there
being no `--listen` flag: `zig test` and `zig run`. Unless an explicit
`-femit-bin=xxx` argument is passed on the CLI, these subcommands will
use `CacheMode.whole`, so that they can put the output somewhere without
polluting the cwd (plus, caching is potentially more useful for direct
usage of these subcommands).
Users of `--listen` (such as the build system) can now use
`std.zig.EmitArtifact.cacheName` to find out what an output will be
named. This avoids having to synchronize logic between the compiler and
all users of `--listen`.

Unfortunately, the self-hosted SPIR-V backend is quite tightly coupled
with the self-hosted SPIR-V linker through its `Object` concept (which
is much like `llvm.Object`). Reworking this would be too much work for
this branch. So, for now, I have introduced a special case (similar to
the LLVM backend's special case) to the codegen logic when using this
backend. We will want to delete this special case at some point, but it
need not block this work.
|
|
As of this commit, every backend other than self-hosted Wasm and
self-hosted SPIR-V compiles and (at least somewhat) functions again.
Those two backends are currently disabled with panics.
Note that `Zcu.Feature.separate_thread` is *not* enabled for the fixed
backends. Avoiding linker references from codegen is a non-trivial task,
and can be done after this branch.
|
|
The idea here is that instead of the linker calling into codegen,
instead codegen should run before we touch the linker, and after MIR is
produced, it is sent to the linker. Aside from simplifying the call
graph (by preventing N linkers from each calling into M codegen
backends!), this has the huge benefit that it is possible to
parallellize codegen separately from linking. The threading model can
look like this:
* 1 semantic analysis thread, which generates AIR
* N codegen threads, which process AIR into MIR
* 1 linker thread, which emits MIR to the binary
The codegen threads are also responsible for `Air.Legalize` and
`Air.Liveness`; it's more efficient to do this work here instead of
blocking the main thread for this trivially parallel task.
I have repurposed the `Zcu.Feature.separate_thread` backend feature to
indicate support for this 1:N:1 threading pattern. This commit makes the
C backend support this feature, since it was relatively easy to divorce
from `link.C`: it just required eliminating some shared buffers. Other
backends don't currently support this feature. In fact, they don't even
compile -- the next few commits will fix them back up.

The main goal of this commit is to make it easier to decouple codegen
from the linkers by being able to do LLVM codegen without going through
the `link.File`; however, this ended up being a nice refactor anyway.
Previously, every linker stored an optional `llvm.Object`, which was
populated when using LLVM for the ZCU *and* linking an output binary;
and `Zcu` also stored an optional `llvm.Object`, which was used only
when we needed LLVM for the ZCU (e.g. for `-femit-llvm-bc`) but were not
emitting a binary.
This situation was incredibly silly. It meant there were N+1 places the
LLVM object might be instead of just 1, and it meant that every linker
had to start a bunch of methods by checking for an LLVM object, and just
dispatching to the corresponding method on *it* instead if it was not
`null`.
Instead, we now always store the LLVM object on the `Zcu` -- which makes
sense, because it corresponds to the object emitted by, well, the Zig
Compilation Unit! The linkers now mostly don't make reference to LLVM.
`Compilation` makes sure to emit the LLVM object if necessary before
calling `flush`, so it is ready for the linker. Also, all of the
`link.File` methods which act on the ZCU -- like `updateNav` -- now
check for the LLVM object in `link.zig` instead of in every single
individual linker implementation. Notably, the change to LLVM emit
improves this rather ludicrous call chain in the `-fllvm -flld` case:
* Compilation.flush
* link.File.flush
* link.Elf.flush
* link.Elf.linkWithLLD
* link.Elf.flushModule
* link.emitLlvmObject
* Compilation.emitLlvmObject
* llvm.Object.emit
Replacing it with this one:
* Compilation.flush
* llvm.Object.emit
...although we do currently still end up in `link.Elf.linkWithLLD` to do
the actual linking. The logic for invoking LLD should probably also be
unified at least somewhat; I haven't done that in this commit.
|
|
* The `codegen_nav`, `codegen_func`, `codegen_type` tasks are renamed to
`link_nav`, `link_func`, and `link_type`, to more accurately reflect
their purpose of sending data to the *linker*. Currently, `link_func`
remains responsible for codegen; this will change in an upcoming
commit.
* Don't go on a pointless detour through `PerThread` when linking ZCU
functions/`Nav`s; so, the `linkerUpdateNav` etc logic now lives in
`link.zig`. Currently, `linkerUpdateFunc` is an exception, because it
has broader responsibilities including codegen, but this will be
solved in an upcoming commit.

Runtime `@shuffle` has two cases which backends generally want to handle
differently for efficiency:
* One runtime vector operand; some result elements may be comptime-known
* Two runtime vector operands; some result elements may be undefined
The latter case happens if both vectors given to `@shuffle` are
runtime-known and they are both used (i.e. the mask refers to them).
Otherwise, if the result is not entirely comptime-known, we are in the
former case. `Sema` now diffentiates these two cases in the AIR so that
backends can easily handle them however they want to. Note that this
*doesn't* really involve Sema doing any more work than it would
otherwise need to, so there's not really a negative here!
Most existing backends have their lowerings for `@shuffle` migrated in
this commit. The LLVM backend uses new lowerings suggested by Jacob as
ones which it will handle effectively. The x86_64 backend has not yet
been migrated; for now there's a panic in there. Jacob will implement
that before this is merged anywhere.

This adds 4 `Legalize.Feature`s:
* `expand_intcast_safe`
* `expand_add_safe`
* `expand_sub_safe`
* `expand_mul_safe`
These do pretty much what they say on the tin. This logic was previously
in Sema, used when `Zcu.Feature.safety_checked_instructions` was not
supported by the backend. That `Zcu.Feature` has been removed in favour
of this legalization.
