2024-07-16Value: eliminate static recursion loop from value printingmlugg
2024-07-14riscv: `@atomicRmw`David Rubin
Now we generate debug undefined constants when the user asks for them to dedup across the function decl. This takes 2 instructions instead of 7 in the RISC-V backend. TODO, we need to dedupe across function decl boundaries.
2024-07-13InternPool: add and use a mutate mutex for each listJacob Young
This allows the mutate mutex to only be locked during actual grows, which are rare. For the lists that didn't previously have a mutex, this change has little effect since grows are rare and there is zero contention on a mutex that is only ever locked by one thread. This change allows `extra` to be mutated without racing with a grow.

2024-07-04Zcu: extract permanent state from FileAndrew Kelley
Primarily, this commit removes 2 fields from File, relying on the data being stored in the `files` field, with the key as the path digest, and the value as the struct decl corresponding to the File. This table is serialized into the compiler state that survives between incremental updates. Meanwhile, the File struct remains ephemeral data that can be reconstructed the first time it is needed by the compiler process, as well as operated on by independent worker threads. A key outcome of this commit is that there is now a stable index that can be used to refer to a File. This will be needed when serializing error messages to survive incremental compilation updates.

2024-07-04Zcu: store `LazySrcLoc` in error messagesmlugg
This change modifies `Zcu.ErrorMsg` to store a `Zcu.LazySrcLoc` rather than a `Zcu.SrcLoc`. Everything else is dominoes. The reason for this change is incremental compilation. If a failed `AnalUnit` is up-to-date on an update, we want to re-use the old error messages. However, the file containing the error location may have been modified, and `SrcLoc` cannot survive such a modification. `LazySrcLoc` is designed to be correct across incremental updates. Therefore, we defer source location resolution until `Compilation` gathers the compile errors into the `ErrorBundle`.
2024-06-22rename src/Module.zig to src/Zcu.zigAndrew Kelley
This patch is a pure rename plus only changing the file path in `@import` sites, so it is expected to not create version control conflicts, even when rebasing.
2024-04-17compiler: rework comptime pointer representation and accessmlugg
We've got a big one here! This commit reworks how we represent pointers in the InternPool, and rewrites the logic for loading and storing from them at comptime. Firstly, the pointer representation. Previously, pointers were represented in a highly structured manner: pointers to fields, array elements, etc, were explicitly represented. This works well for simple cases, but is quite difficult to handle in the cases of unusual reinterpretations, pointer casts, offsets, etc. Therefore, pointers are now represented in a more "flat" manner. For types without well-defined layouts -- such as comptime-only types, automatic-layout aggregates, and so on -- we still use this "hierarchical" structure. However, for types with well-defined layouts, we use a byte offset associated with the pointer. This allows the comptime pointer access logic to deal with reinterpreted pointers far more gracefully, because the "base address" of a pointer -- for instance a `field` -- is a single value which pointer accesses cannot exceed since the parent has undefined layout. This strategy is also more useful to most backends -- see the updated logic in `codegen.zig` and `codegen/llvm.zig`. For backends which do prefer a chain of field and elements accesses for lowering pointer values, such as SPIR-V, there is a helpful function in `Value` which creates a strategy to derive a pointer value using ideally only field and element accesses. This is actually more correct than the previous logic, since it correctly handles pointer casts which, after the dust has settled, end up referring exactly to an aggregate field or array element. In terms of the pointer access code, it has been rewritten from the ground up. The old logic had become rather a mess of special cases being added whenever bugs were hit, and was still riddled with bugs. The new logic was written to handle the "difficult" cases correctly, the most notable of which is restructuring of a comptime-only array (for instance, converting a `[3][2]comptime_int` to a `[2][3]comptime_int`. Currently, the logic for loading and storing work somewhat differently, but a future change will likely improve the loading logic to bring it more in line with the store strategy. As far as I can tell, the rewrite has fixed all bugs exposed by #19414. As a part of this, the comptime bitcast logic has also been rewritten. Previously, bitcasts simply worked by serializing the entire value into an in-memory buffer, then deserializing it. This strategy has two key weaknesses: pointers, and undefined values. Representations of these values at comptime cannot be easily serialized/deserialized whilst preserving data, which means many bitcasts would become runtime-known if pointers were involved, or would turn `undefined` values into `0xAA`. The new logic works by "flattening" the datastructure to be cast into a sequence of bit-packed atomic values, and then "unflattening" it; using serialization when necessary, but with special handling for `undefined` values and for pointers which align in virtual memory. The resulting code is definitely slower -- more on this later -- but it is correct. The pointer access and bitcast logic required some helper functions and types which are not generally useful elsewhere, so I opted to split them into separate files `Sema/comptime_ptr_access.zig` and `Sema/bitcast.zig`, with simple re-exports in `Sema.zig` for their small public APIs. Whilst working on this branch, I caught various unrelated bugs with transitive Sema errors, and with the handling of `undefined` values. These bugs have been fixed, and corresponding behavior test added. In terms of performance, I do anticipate that this commit will regress performance somewhat, because the new pointer access and bitcast logic is necessarily more complex. I have not yet taken performance measurements, but will do shortly, and post the results in this PR. If the performance regression is severe, I will do work to to optimize the new logic before merge.

2024-03-26Zcu: eliminate `Decl.alive` fieldmlugg
Legacy anon decls now have three uses: * Type owner decls * Function owner decls * `@export` and `@extern` Therefore, there are no longer any cases where we wish to explicitly omit legacy anon decls from the binary. This means we can remove the concept of an "alive" vs "dead" `Decl`, which also allows us to remove the separate `anon_work_queue` in `Compilation`.
2024-03-26compiler: eliminate legacy Value representationmlugg
Good riddance! Most of these changes are trivial. There's a fix for a minor bug this exposed in `Value.readFromPackedMemory`, but aside from that, it's all just things like changing `intern` calls to `toIntern`.
2024-03-26Zcu.Decl: remove `ty` fieldmlugg
`Decl` can no longer store un-interned values, so this field is now unnecessary. The type can instead be fetched with the new `typeOf` helper method, which just gets the type of the Decl's `Value`.

2024-03-25compiler: implement analysis-local comptime-mutable memorymlugg
This commit changes how we represent comptime-mutable memory (`comptime var`) in the compiler in order to implement the intended behavior that references to such memory can only exist at comptime. It does *not* clean up the representation of mutable values, improve the representation of comptime-known pointers, or fix the many bugs in the comptime pointer access code. These will be future enhancements. Comptime memory lives for the duration of a single Sema, and is not permitted to escape that one analysis, either by becoming runtime-known or by becoming comptime-known to other analyses. These restrictions mean that we can represent comptime allocations not via Decl, but with state local to Sema - specifically, the new `Sema.comptime_allocs` field. All comptime-mutable allocations, as well as any comptime-known const allocs containing references to such memory, live in here. This allows for relatively fast checking of whether a value references any comptime-mtuable memory, since we need only traverse values up to pointers: pointers to Decls can never reference comptime-mutable memory, and pointers into `Sema.comptime_allocs` always do. This change exposed some faulty pointer access logic in `Value.zig`. I've fixed the important cases, but there are some TODOs I've put in which are definitely possible to hit with sufficiently esoteric code. I plan to resolve these by auditing all direct accesses to pointers (most of them ought to use Sema to perform the pointer access!), but for now this is sufficient for all realistic code and to get tests passing. This change eliminates `Zcu.tmp_hack_arena`, instead using the Sema arena for comptime memory mutations, which is possible since comptime memory is now local to the current Sema. This change should allow `Decl` to store only an `InternPool.Index` rather than a full-blown `ty: Type, val: Value`. This commit does not perform this refactor.

2024-03-06InternPool: create specialized functions for loading namespace typesmlugg
Namespace types (`struct`, `enum`, `union`, `opaque`) do not use structural equality - equivalence is based on their Decl index (and soon will change to AST node + captures). However, we previously stored all other information in the corresponding `InternPool.Key` anyway. For logical consistency, it makes sense to have the key only be the true key (that is, the Decl index) and to load all other data through another function. This introduces those functions, by the name of `loadStructType` etc. It's a big diff, but most of it is no-brainer changes. In future, it might be nice to eliminate a bunch of the loaded state in favour of accessor functions on the `LoadedXyzType` types (like how we have `LoadedUnionType.size()`), but that can be explored at a later date.
