progress towards #25312
|
|
This clarifies that it is legal to return an invalid pointer from a
function, provided that such pointer is not dereferenced.
This matches current status quo of the language. Any change to this
should be a proposal that argues for different semantics.
It is also legal in C to return a pointer to a local. The C backend
lowers such thing directly, so the corresponding warning in C must be
disabled (`-Wno-return-stack-address`).

Basically everything that has a direct replacement or no uses left.
Notable omissions:
- std.ArrayHashMap: Too much fallout, needs a separate cleanup.
- std.debug.runtime_safety: Too much fallout.
- std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator: Lots of references to it remain, not
a simple find and replace as "debug allocator" is not equivalent to
"general purpose allocator".
- std.io.Reader: Is being reworked at the moment.
- std.unicode.utf8Decode(): No replacement, needs a new API first.
- Manifest backwards compat options: Removal would break test data used
by TestFetchBuilder.
- panic handler needs to be a namespace: Many tests still rely on it
being a function, needs a separate cleanup.

While it is not allowed for a function coercion to change whether a
function is generic, it *is* okay to make existing concrete parameters
of a generic function also generic, or vice versa. Either of these cases
implies that the result is a generic function, so comptime type checks
will happen when the function is ultimately called.

The original motivation here was to fix regressions caused by #22414.
However, while working on this, I ended up discussing a language
simplification with Andrew, which changes things a little from how they
worked before #22414.
The main user-facing change here is that any reference to a prior
function parameter, even if potentially comptime-known at the usage
site or even not analyzed, now makes a function generic. This applies
even if the parameter being referenced is not a `comptime` parameter,
since it could still be populated when performing an inline call. This
is a breaking language change.
The detection of this is done in AstGen; when evaluating a parameter
type or return type, we track whether it referenced any prior parameter,
and if so, we mark this type as being "generic" in ZIR. This will cause
Sema to not evaluate it until the time of instantiation or inline call.
A lovely consequence of this from an implementation perspective is that
it eliminates the need for most of the "generic poison" system. In
particular, `error.GenericPoison` is now completely unnecessary, because
we identify generic expressions earlier in the pipeline; this simplifies
the compiler and avoids redundant work. This also entirely eliminates
the concept of the "generic poison value". The only remnant of this
system is the "generic poison type" (`Type.generic_poison` and
`InternPool.Index.generic_poison_type`). This type is used in two
places:
* During semantic analysis, to represent an unknown result type.
* When storing generic function types, to represent a generic parameter/return type.
It's possible that these use cases should instead use `.none`, but I
leave that investigation to a future adventurer.
One last thing. Prior to #22414, inline calls were a little inefficient,
because they re-evaluated even non-generic parameter types whenever they
were called. Changing this behavior is what ultimately led to #22538.
Well, because the new logic will mark a type expression as generic if
there is any change its resolved type could differ in an inline call,
this redundant work is unnecessary! So, this is another way in which the
new design reduces redundant work and complexity.

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!

Both of these instructions were previously under a special case in
`rvalue` which resulted in every reference to such an instruction adding
a new `ref` instruction. This had the effect that, for instance,
`&a != &a` for parameters. Deduplicating these `ref` instructions was
problematic for different reasons.
For `alloc_inferred`, the problem was that it's not valid to `ref` the
alloc until the allocation has been resolved (`resolve_inferred_alloc`),
but `AstGen.appendBodyWithFixups` would place the `ref` directly after
the `alloc_inferred`. This is solved by bringing
`resolve_inferred_alloc` in line with `make_ptr_const` by having it
*return* the final pointer, rather than modifying `sema.inst_map` of the
original `alloc_inferred`. That way, the `ref` refers to the
`resolve_inferred_alloc` instruction, so is placed immediately after it,
avoiding this issue.
For `param`, the problem is a bit trickier: `param` instructions live in
a body which must contain only `param` instructions, then a
`func{,_inferred,_fancy}`, then a `break_inline`. Moreover, `param`
instructions may be referenced not only by the function body, but also
by other parameters, the return type expression, etc. Each of these
bodies requires separate `ref` instructions. This is solved by pulling
entries out of `ref_table` after evaluating each component of the
function declaration, and appending the refs later on when actually
putting the bodies together. This gives way to another issue: if you
write `fn f(x: T) @TypeOf(x.foo())`, then since `x.foo()` takes a
reference to `x`, this `ref` instruction is now in a comptime context
(outside of the `@TypeOf` ZIR body), so emits a compile error. This is
solved by loosening the rules around `ref` instructions; because they
are not side-effecting, it is okay to allow `ref` of runtime values at
comptime, resulting in a runtime-known value in a comptime scope. We
already apply this mechanism in some cases; for instance, it's why
`runtime_array.len` works in a `comptime` context. In future, we will
want to give similar treatment to many operations in Sema: in general,
it's fine to apply runtime operations at comptime provided they don't
have side effects!
Resolves: #22140

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.

we can run `std.debug.print` now, with both run-time strings and integers!

- implements `airSlice`, `airBitAnd`, `airBitOr`, `airShr`.
- got a basic design going for the `airErrorName` but for some reason it simply returns
empty bytes. will investigate further.
- only generating `.got.zig` entries when not compiling an object or shared library
- reduced the total amount of ops a mnemonic can have to 3, simplifying the logic

i just hadn't realized that I placed the `riscv_start` branch in the non-simplified

Also reduce ctype pool string memory usage, remove self assignments, and
enable more warnings.

This reverts commit 0c99ba1eab63865592bb084feb271cd4e4b0357e, reversing
changes made to 5f92b070bf284f1493b1b5d433dd3adde2f46727.
This caused a CI failure when it landed in master branch due to a
128-bit `@byteSwap` in std.mem.

Some tests are now failing due to debug info changes, some tests
now pass due to improved compiler functionality.

After fixing some issues with inline assembly in the C backend, the std
cleanups have the side effect of making these functions compatible with
the backend, allowing it to be used on linux without linking libc.

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
|
|
Opaque and `noreturn` makes sense since they don't represent real
values, but `null` and `undefined` are perfectly normal
comptime-only values.
Closes #16088
