This commit adds -fdump-analysis which creates
a `$NAME-analysis.json` file with all of the finished
semantic analysis that the stage1 compiler produced.
It contains types, packages, declarations, and files.
This is an initial implementation; some data will be
missing. However it's easy to improve the implementation,
which is in `src/dump_analysis.cpp`.
The next step for #21 will be to create Zig code which parses
this json file and creates user-facing HTML documentation.
This feature has other uses, however; for example, it could
be used for IDE integration features until the self-hosted
compiler is available.
This moves the installation of shipped source files from large
CMakeLists.txt lists to zig build recursive directory installation.
On my computer a cmake `make install` takes 2.4 seconds even when it has
to do nothing, and prints a lot of unnecessary lines to stdout that say
"up-to-date: [some file it is installing]".
After this commit, the default output of `make` is down to 1
second, and it does not print any junk to stdout. Further, a `make
install` is no longer required and `make` is sufficient.
This closes#2874.
It also closes#2585. `make` now always invokes `zig build` for
installing files and libuserland.a, and zig's own caching system makes
that go fast.
This is the beginning of supporting minimum GLIBC version as part of the
target. See #2509 for the motivation.
The dummy libc zig files are removed. A future commit will build them
on-the-fly, using the generated text files generated by the new tool,
which are checked into source control and distributed along with zig.
These generated text files are, together, 142KB (20KB gzipped).
Compare that to a naive bundling of the .abilist files, which would be
2.2MiB (375KB gzipped).
This is based on glibc 2.29.
Not all of the softfloat library is being built....
Vector support is very buggy at the moment, but should work when the bugs are fixed.

* introduce wasm32-freestanding-musl .h files to fix
conflicts with stddef.h and errno.h
* fix an issue with zig build system regarding installation of
webassembly libraries
* add implementations to zig's libc:
- strcmp
- strncmp
- strerror
- strlen
See #514
- wip for #2046
- clang .d output must be created with `clang -MV` switch
- implemented in Zig
- hybridized for zig stage0 and stage1
- zig test src-self-hosted/dep_tokenizer.zig
* rename std/special/builtin.zig to std/special/c.zig
not to be confused with @import("builtin") which is entirely
different, this is zig's multi-target libc implementation.
* WebAssembly: build-exe is for executables which have a main().
build-lib is for building libraries of functions to use from,
for example, a web browser environment.
- for now pass --export-all for libraries when there are any
C objects because we have no way to detect the list of exports
when compiling C code.
- stop passing --no-entry for executables. if you want --no-entry
then use build-lib.
* make the "musl" ABI the default ABI for wasm32-freestanding.
* zig provides libc for wasm32-freestanding-musl.
Previously, `zig fmt` on the stage1 compiler (which is what we currently
ship) would perform what equates to `zig run std/special/fmt_runner.zig`
Now, `zig fmt` is implemented with the hybrid zig/C++ strategy outlined
by #1964.
This means Zig no longer has to ship some of the stage2 .zig files, and
there is no longer a delay when running `zig fmt` for the first time.
On macOS building with Xcode/clang the linker complains loudly when
symbol visibility is inconsistent. This option syncs visibilty setting
of both LLVM and Zig.
Previously libuserland was being built for the native target,
which could depend on native CPU features such as AVX. The
CI infrastructure is intending to create binaries that are
widely compatible and do not make use of specific CPU features.
There could be something to gain from enabling native CPU features
sometimes, by introducing a new cmake configuration option, but
since it's planned to eventually ship self-hosted rather than stage1,
I don't think it really matters.
closes#2348
This modifies the build process of Zig to put all of the source files
into libcompiler.a, except main.cpp and userland.cpp.
Next, the build process links main.cpp, userland.cpp, and libcompiler.a
into zig1. userland.cpp is a shim for functions that will later be
replaced with self-hosted implementations.
Next, the build process uses zig1 to build src-self-hosted/stage1.zig
into libuserland.a, which does not depend on any of the things that
are shimmed in userland.cpp, such as translate-c.
Finally, the build process re-links main.cpp and libcompiler.a, except
with libuserland.a instead of userland.cpp. Now the shims are replaced
with .zig code. This provides all of the Zig standard library to the
stage1 C++ compiler, and enables us to move certain things to userland,
such as translate-c.
As a proof of concept I have made the `zig zen` command use text defined
in userland. I added `zig translate-c-2` which is a work-in-progress
reimplementation of translate-c in userland, which currently calls
`std.debug.panic("unimplemented")` and you can see the stack trace makes
it all the way back into the C++ main() function (Thanks LemonBoy for
improving that!).
This could potentially let us move other things into userland, such as
hashing algorithms, the entire cache system, .d file parsing, pretty
much anything that libuserland.a itself doesn't need to depend on.
This can also let us have `zig fmt` in stage1 without the overhead
of child process execution, and without the initial compilation delay
before it gets cached.

Unlike the other glibc source code checked into the repo, `csu/init.c`
did not have a license clause that allowed linking without restrictions.
`_IO_stdin_used` is the only symbol in the file and appears to be a 20
year old compatibility shim for the glibc 2.0 ABI. Obsolete in 2.1.

there's a new cli option `--main-pkg-path` which you can use to choose
a different root package directory besides the one inferred from the
root source file
and a corresponding build.zig API:
foo.setMainPkgPath(path)
* better libc detection
This introduces a new command `zig libc` which prints
the various paths of libc files. It outputs them to stdout
in a simple text file format that it is capable of parsing.
You can use `zig libc libc.txt` to validate a file.
These arguments are gone:
--libc-lib-dir [path] directory where libc crt1.o resides
--libc-static-lib-dir [path] directory where libc crtbegin.o resides
--msvc-lib-dir [path] (windows) directory where vcruntime.lib resides
--kernel32-lib-dir [path] (windows) directory where kernel32.lib resides
Instead we have this argument:
--libc [file] Provide a file which specifies libc paths
This is used to pass a libc text file (which can be generated with
`zig libc`). So it is easier to manage multiple cross compilation
environments.
`--cache on` now works when linking against libc.
`ZigTarget` now has a bool field `is_native`
Better error messaging when you try to link against libc or use
`@cImport` but the various paths cannot be found. It should also be
faster.
* save native_libc.txt in zig-cache
This avoids having to detect libc at runtime on every invocation.
Mostly picking the same paths as FreeBSD.
We need a little special handling for crt files, as netbsd uses its
own (and not GCC's) for those, with slightly different names.
This is not intended to be the long-term implementation as it doesn't
provide various properties that we eventually will want (e.g.
round-tripping, denormal support). It also uses f64 internally so the
wider f128 will be inaccurate.
Previously, std.debug.assert would `@panic` in test builds,
if the assertion failed. Now, it's always `unreachable`.
This makes release mode test builds more accurately test
the actual code that will be run.
However this requires tests to call `std.testing.expect`
rather than `std.debug.assert` to make sure output is correct.
Here is the explanation of when to use either one, copied from
the assert doc comments:
Inside a test block, it is best to use the `std.testing` module
rather than assert, because assert may not detect a test failure
in ReleaseFast and ReleaseSafe mode. Outside of a test block, assert
is the correct function to use.
closes#1304
this should actually improve CI times a bit too
See the description at the top of std/os/startup.zig (deleted in this
commit) for a more detailed understanding of what this commit does.
And add std.math.f128_* constants.
The routines are:
__fixdfdi, __fixdfsi, __fixdfti,
__fixsfdi, __fixsfsi, __fixsfti,
__fixtfdi, __fixtfsi, __fixtfti.
These all call fixint which is a generic zig function that does the
conversion:
pub fn fixint(comptime fp_t: type, comptime fixint_t: type, a: fp_t) fixint_t
There are also a set tests:
__fixdfdi_test, __fixdfsi_test, __fixdfti_test,
__fixsfdi_test, __fixsfsi_test, __fixsfti_test,
__fixtfdi_test, __fixtfsi_test, __fixtfti_test.

These are translated from [monocypher](https://monocypher.org/) which
has fairly competitive performance while remaining quite simple.
Initial performance comparision:
Zig:
Poly1305: 1423 MiB/s
X25519: 8671 exchanges per second
Monocypher:
Poly1305: 1567 MiB/s
X25519: 10539 exchanges per second
There is room for improvement and no real effort has been made at all in
optimization beyond a direct translation.
* add std.event.RwLock and std.event.RwLocked
* std.debug.warn does its printing locked
* add std.Mutex, however it's currently implemented as a spinlock
* rename std.event.Group.cancelAll to std.event.Group.deinit and change
the docs and assumptions.
* add std.HashMap.clone
* introduce std.atomic.Int
* add src-self-hosted/test.zig which is tested by the main test suite
- it fully utilizes the multithreaded async/await event loop so the
tests should Go Fast
* `stage2/bin/zig build-obj test.zig` is able to spit out an error if 2 exported
functions collide
* ability for `zig test` to accept `--object` and `--assembly`
arguments
* std.build: TestStep supports addLibPath and addObjectFile
Git was called in the build directory and not the source directory.
This works fine when the build directory resides within the source
repository, but doesn't work for out-of-source builds. Example:
```
~/zigbuild$ cmake ../zig
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
Configuring zig version 0.2.0+
```
Use Git's `-C <path>` flag to always point to the source directory so
that it doesn't matter where the build directory lives.
Add support for half-precision floating point operations.
Introduce `__extendhfsf2` and `__truncsfhf2` in std/special/compiler_rt.
Add `__gnu_h2f_ieee` and `__gnu_f2h_ieee` as aliases that are used in
Windows builds.
The logic in std/special/compiler_rt/extendXfYf2.zig has been reworked
and can now operate on 16 bits floating point types.
`extendXfYf2()` and `truncXfYf2()` are marked `inline` to work around
a not entirely understood stack alignment issue on Windows when calling
the f16 versions of the builtins.

when the integer part does not fit in the destination integer type
* Also fix incorrect safety triggered for integer casting an
`i32` to a `u7`. closes#1138
* adds compiler-rt function: `__floatuntidf`
A few notes on the implementation:
- Any unsigned power of two integer type less than 64 bits in size is supported
as a Limb type.
- The algorithms used are kept simple for the moment. More complicated
algorithms are generally only more useful as integer sizes increase a
lot and I don't expect our current usage to be used for this purpose
just yet.
- All branches (practically) have been covered by tests.
See 986a2b3243/bench
for rough performance comparison numbers.
