2023-09-21compiler: fix structFieldName crash for tuplesAndrew Kelley
When struct types have no field names, the names are implicitly understood to be strings corresponding to the field indexes in declaration order. It used to be the case that a NullTerminatedString would be stored for each field in this case, however, now, callers must handle the possibility that there are no names stored at all. This commit introduces `legacyStructFieldName`, a function to fake the previous behavior. Probably something better could be done by reworking all the callsites of this function.
2023-09-21type: give empty unions 1-byte alignmentmlugg
Zero-byte alignment is no longer valid for runtime types. I made most of these changes in an earlier commit, but missed this case.
2023-09-21InternPool,Sema,type,llvm: alignment fixesmlugg
This changeset fixes the handling of alignment in several places. The new rules are: * `@alignOf(T)` where `T` is a runtime zero-bit type is at least 1, maybe greater. * Zero-bit fields in `extern` structs *do* force alignment, potentially offsetting following fields. * Zero-bit fields *do* have addresses within structs which can be observed and are consistent with `@offsetOf`. These are not necessarily all implemented correctly yet (see disabled test), but this commit fixes all regressions compared to master, and makes one new test pass.

2023-09-21compiler: move struct types into InternPool properAndrew Kelley
Structs were previously using `SegmentedList` to be given indexes, but were not actually backed by the InternPool arrays. After this, the only remaining uses of `SegmentedList` in the compiler are `Module.Decl` and `Module.Namespace`. Once those last two are migrated to become backed by InternPool arrays as well, we can introduce state serialization via writing these arrays to disk all at once. Unfortunately there are a lot of source code locations that touch the struct type API, so this commit is still work-in-progress. Once I get it compiling and passing the test suite, I can provide some interesting data points such as how it affected the InternPool memory size and performance comparison against master branch. I also couldn't resist migrating over a bunch of alignment API over to use the log2 Alignment type rather than a mismash of u32 and u64 byte units with 0 meaning something implicitly different and special at every location. Turns out you can do all the math you need directly on the log2 representation of alignments.
2023-09-19write function types consistently with a space before `fn` keywordr00ster91
Currently, the compiler (like @typeName) writes it `fn(...) Type` but zig fmt writes it `fn (...) Type` (notice the space after `fn`). This inconsistency is now resolved and function types are consistently written the zig fmt way. Before this there were more `fn (...) Type` occurrences than `fn(...) Type` already.
2023-09-15Sema: mark pointers to inline functions as comptime-onlymlugg
This is supposed to be the case, similar to how pointers to generic functions are comptime-only (several pieces of logic already assumed this). These types being considered runtime was causing `dbg_var_val` AIR instructions to be wrongly emitted for such values, causing codegen backends to create a runtime reference to the inline function, which (at least on the LLVM backend) triggers an error. Resolves: #38
2023-09-12InternPool: prevent anon struct UAF bugs with type safetyAndrew Kelley
Instead of using actual slices for InternPool.Key.AnonStructType, this commit changes to use Slice types instead, which store a long-lived index rather than a pointer. This is a follow-up to 7ef1eb1c27754cb0349fdc10db1f02ff2dddd99b.
2023-08-22compiler: move unions into InternPoolAndrew Kelley
There are a couple concepts here worth understanding: Key.UnionType - This type is available *before* resolving the union's fields. The enum tag type, number of fields, and field names, field types, and field alignments are not available with this. InternPool.UnionType - This one can be obtained from the above type with `InternPool.loadUnionType` which asserts that the union's enum tag type has been resolved. This one has all the information available. Additionally: * ZIR: Turn an unused bit into `any_aligned_fields` flag to help semantic analysis know whether a union has explicit alignment on any fields (usually not). * Sema: delete `resolveTypeRequiresComptime` which had the same type signature and near-duplicate logic to `typeRequiresComptime`. - Make opaque types not report comptime-only (this was inconsistent between the two implementations of this function). * Implement accepted proposal #12556 which is a breaking change.
2023-08-17InternPool: safer enum APIAndrew Kelley
The key changes in this commit are: ```diff - names: []const NullTerminatedString, + names: NullTerminatedString.Slice, - values: []const Index, + values: Index.Slice, ``` Which eliminates the slices from `InternPool.Key.EnumType` and replaces them with structs that contain `start` and `len` indexes. This makes the lifetime of `EnumType` change from expiring with updates to InternPool, to expiring when the InternPool is garbage-collected, which is currently never. This is gearing up for a larger change I started working on locally which moves union types into InternPool. As a bonus, I fixed some unnecessary instances of `@as`.

2023-08-09AstGen: handle `ty` result location for struct and array init correctlymlugg
Well, this was a journey! The original issue I was trying to fix is covered by the new behavior test in array.zig: in essence, `ty` and `coerced_ty` result locations were not correctly propagated. While fixing this, I noticed a similar bug in struct inits: the type was propagated to *fields* fine, but the actual struct init was unnecessarily anonymous, which could lead to unnecessary copies. Note that the behavior test added in struct.zig was already passing - the bug here didn't change any easy-to-test behavior - but I figured I'd add it anyway. This is a little harder than it seems, because the result type may not itself be an array/struct type: it could be an optional / error union wrapper. A new ZIR instruction is introduced to unwrap these. This is also made a little tricky by the fact that it's possible for result types to be unknown at the time of semantic analysis (due to `anytype` parameters), leading to generic poison. In these cases, we must essentially downgrade to an anonymous initialization. Fixing these issues exposed *another* bug, related to type resolution in Sema. That issue is now tracked by #16603. As a temporary workaround for this bug, a few result locations for builtin function operands have been disabled in AstGen. This is technically a breaking change, but it's very minor: I doubt it'll cause any breakage in the wild.
2023-08-09Sema: remove `validateRunTimeType`Jacob Young
This function does not seem to differ in any interesting way from `!typeRequiresComptime`, other than the `is_extern` param which is only used in one place, and some differences did not seem correct anyway. My reasoning for changing opaque types to be comptime-only is that `explainWhyTypeIsComptime` is quite happy to explain why they are. :D
2023-07-22Sema: handle adhoc inferred error sets in helper functionsAndrew Kelley
There were two missing places. Regressed in the #16318 branch. Found from compiling Bun. Unfortunately we do not have a behavior test reduction for this bug.
2023-07-18compiler: fix branch regressionsAndrew Kelley
* getOwnedFunctionIndex no longer checks if the value is actually a function. * The callsites to `intern` that I added want to avoid the `getCoerced` call, so I added `intern2`. * Adding to inferred error sets should not happen if the destination error set is not the inferred error set of the current Sema instance. * adhoc_inferred_error_set_type can be seen by the backend. Treat it like anyerror.
2023-07-18frontend: fix inferred error sets of comptime/inline callsAndrew Kelley
Previously, they shared function index with the owner decl, but that would clobber the data stored for inferred error sets of runtime calls. Now there is an adhoc_inferred_error_set_type which models the problem much more correctly.
2023-07-18Type.print: fix inferred error set crashAndrew Kelley
The index is a function, not an inferred error set.
2023-07-18InternPool: implement getExternFuncAndrew Kelley
2023-07-18compiler: rework inferred error setsAndrew Kelley
* move inferred error sets into InternPool. - they are now represented by pointing directly at the corresponding function body value. * inferred error set working memory is now in Sema and expires after the Sema for the function corresponding to the inferred error set is finished having its body analyzed. * error sets use a InternPool.Index.Slice rather than an actual slice to avoid lifetime issues.
2023-07-18rework generic function callsAndrew Kelley
Abridged summary: * Move `Module.Fn` into `InternPool`. * Delete a lot of confusing and problematic `Sema` logic related to generic function calls. This commit removes `Module.Fn` and replaces it with two new `InternPool.Tag` values: * `func_decl` - corresponding to a function declared in the source code. This one contains line/column numbers, zir_body_inst, etc. * `func_instance` - one for each monomorphization of a generic function. Contains a reference to the `func_decl` from whence the instantiation came, along with the `comptime` parameter values (or types in the case of `anytype`) Since `InternPool` provides deduplication on these values, these fields are now deleted from `Module`: * `monomorphed_func_keys` * `monomorphed_funcs` * `align_stack_fns` Instead of these, Sema logic for generic function instantiation now unconditionally evaluates the function prototype expression for every generic callsite. This is technically required in order for type coercions to work. The previous code had some dubious, probably wrong hacks to make things work, such as `hashUncoerced`. I'm not 100% sure how we were able to eliminate that function and still pass all the behavior tests, but I'm pretty sure things were still broken without doing type coercion for every generic function call argument. After the function prototype is evaluated, it produces a deduplicated `func_instance` `InternPool.Index` which can then be used for the generic function call. Some other nice things made by this simplification are the removal of `comptime_args_fn_inst` and `preallocated_new_func` from `Sema`, and the messy logic associated with them. I have not yet been able to measure the perf of this against master branch. On one hand, it reduces memory usage and pointer chasing of the most heavily used `InternPool` Tag - function bodies - but on the other hand, it does evaluate function prototype expressions more than before. We will soon find out.

2023-06-24all: migrate code to new cast builtin syntaxmlugg
Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix: * `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten * `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors * Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change

2023-06-10compiler: eliminate Decl.value_arena and Sema.perm_arenaAndrew Kelley
The main motivation for this commit is eliminating Decl.value_arena. Everything else is dominoes. Decl.name used to be stored in the GPA, now it is stored in InternPool. It ended up being simpler to migrate other strings to be interned as well, such as struct field names, union field names, and a few others. This ended up requiring a big diff, sorry about that. But the changes are pretty nice, we finally start to take advantage of InternPool's existence. global_error_set and error_name_list are simplified. Now it is a single ArrayHashMap(NullTerminatedString, void) and the index is the error tag value. Module.tmp_hack_arena is re-introduced (it was removed in eeff407941560ce8eb5b737b2436dfa93cfd3a0c) in order to deal with comptime_args, optimized_order, and struct and union fields. After structs and unions get moved into InternPool properly, tmp_hack_arena can be deleted again.
2023-06-10InternPool: remove memoized_declAndrew Kelley
This is neither a type nor a value. Simplifies `addStrLit` as well as the many places that switch on `InternPool.Key`. This is a partial revert of bec29b9e498e08202679aa29a45dab2a06a69a1e.

Being able to create a pointer to the non-opv sentinel means that these types have to actually be stored.
2023-06-10InternPool: add representation for value of empty enums and unionsmlugg
This is a bit odd, because this value doesn't actually exist: see #15909. This gets all the empty enum/union behavior tests passing. Also adds an assertion to `Sema.analyzeBodyInner` which would have helped figure out the issue here much more quickly.

2023-06-10InternPool: improve hashing performanceAndrew Kelley
Key.PtrType is now an extern struct so that hashing it can be done by reinterpreting bytes directly. It also uses the same representation for type_pointer Tag encoding and the Key. Accessing pointer attributes now requires packed struct access, however, many operations are now a copy of a u32 rather than several independent fields. This function moves the top two most used Key variants - pointer types and pointer values - to use a single-shot hash function that branches for small keys instead of calling memcpy. As a result, perf against merge-base went from 1.17x ± 0.04 slower to 1.12x ± 0.04 slower. After the pointer value hashing was changed, total CPU instructions spent in memcpy went from 4.40% to 4.08%, and after additionally improving pointer type hashing, it further decreased to 3.72%.
2023-06-10InternPool: pass by const pointerAndrew Kelley
The Zig language allows the compiler to make this optimization automatically. We should definitely make the compiler do that, and revert this commit. However, that will not happen in this branch, and I want to continue to explore achieving performance parity with merge-base. So, this commit changes all InternPool parameters to be passed by const pointer rather than by value. I measured a 1.03x ± 0.03 speedup vs the previous commit compiling the (set of passing) behavior tests. Against merge-base, this commit is 1.17x ± 0.04 slower, which is an improvement from the previous measurement of 1.22x ± 0.02. Related issue: #13510 Related issue: #14129 Related issue: #15688
