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.
added adapter to AnyWriter and GenericWriter to help bridge the gap
between old and new API
make std.testing.expectFmt work at compile-time
std.fmt no longer has a dependency on std.unicode. Formatted printing
was never properly unicode-aware. Now it no longer pretends to be.
Breakage/deprecations:
* std.fs.File.reader -> std.fs.File.deprecatedReader
* std.fs.File.writer -> std.fs.File.deprecatedWriter
* std.io.GenericReader -> std.io.Reader
* std.io.GenericWriter -> std.io.Writer
* std.io.AnyReader -> std.io.Reader
* std.io.AnyWriter -> std.io.Writer
* std.fmt.format -> std.fmt.deprecatedFormat
* std.fmt.fmtSliceEscapeLower -> std.ascii.hexEscape
* std.fmt.fmtSliceEscapeUpper -> std.ascii.hexEscape
* std.fmt.fmtSliceHexLower -> {x}
* std.fmt.fmtSliceHexUpper -> {X}
* std.fmt.fmtIntSizeDec -> {B}
* std.fmt.fmtIntSizeBin -> {Bi}
* std.fmt.fmtDuration -> {D}
* std.fmt.fmtDurationSigned -> {D}
* {} -> {f} when there is a format method
* format method signature
- anytype -> *std.io.Writer
- inferred error set -> error{WriteFailed}
- options -> (deleted)
* std.fmt.Formatted
- now takes context type explicitly
- no fmt string
For C code the macros SIGRTMIN and SIGRTMAX provide these values. In
practice what looks like a constant is actually provided by a libc call.
So the Zig implementations are explicitly function calls.
glibc (and Musl) export a run-time minimum "real-time" signal number,
based on how many signals are reserved for internal implementation details
(generally threading). In practice, on Linux, sigrtmin() is 35 on glibc
with the older LinuxThread and 34 with the newer NPTL-based
implementation. Musl always returns 35. The maximum "real-time" signal
number is NSIG - 1 (64 on most Linux kernels, but 128 on MIPS).
When not linking a C Library, Zig can report the full range of "rt"
signals (none are reserved by Zig).
Fixes#21189
By returning an initialized sigset (instead of taking the set as an output
parameter), these functions can be used to directly initialize the `mask`
parameter of a `Sigaction` instance.
When linking a libc, Zig should defer to the C library for sigset
operations. The pre-filled constants signal sets (empty_sigset,
filled_sigset) are not compatible with C library initialization, so remove
them and use the runtime `sigemptyset` and `sigfillset` methods to
initialize any sigset.
Unify the C library sigset_t and Linux native sigset_t and the accessor
operations.
Add tests that the various sigset_t operations are working. And clean up
existing tests a bit.
These started failing with LLVM 20 for unclear reasons:

Unfortunately, neither GDB nor LLDB want to play nice with qemu-mips64(el) at
the moment, so I can't easily debug these failures.
* use `tmp.dir.realpathAlloc()` to get full path into tmpDir instances
* use `testing.allocator` where that simplifies things (vs. manual ArenaAllocator for 1 or 2 allocs)
* Trust `TmpDir.cleanup()` to clean up contained files and sub-trees
* Remove some unnecessary absolute paths (enabling WASI to run the tests)
* Drop some no-longer necessary `[_][]const u8` casts
* Add scopes to reduce `var` usage in favor of `const`
Four tests in lib/std/posix/test.zig were disabled because they created
fixed-name files in the current working directory, and this caused
problems if tests were running in parallel with other build's tests.
This PR fixes those tests to all use `std.testing.tmpDir` to create unique
temporary names and directories.
Also clean the tests up to more consistently use `defer` to clean up, or
to just rely on tmpDir cleanup to remove individual files.
Working on these tests revealed a bunch of stale WASI code paths in
posix.zig, fixed by replacing stale `wast.AT.FDCWD` references with just
`AT.FDCWD`.
Fixes#14968.
Zig's copy of the `SYMLINK_{NO,}FOLLOW` constants from wasi-musl was
wrong, as were the `IFIFO` and `IFSOCK` file type flags. Fix these up,
and add comments pointing to exactly where they come from (as the
wasi-musl source has lots of unused, different definitions of these
constants).
Add tests for the Zig convention that WASM preopen 3 is the current
working directory. This is true for WASM with or without libc.
Enable several fs and posix tests that are now passing (not necessarily
because of this change) on wasm targets.
Fixes#20890.
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!
On s390x-linux, fstat() does not have nanosecond precision, but fstatat() does.
As a result, comparing Stat structs returned from these syscalls is doomed to
fail.
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.
The signature is documented as:
int link(const char *, const char *);
(see https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/link.2.html or https://man.netbsd.org/link.2)
And its not some Linux extension, the [syscall
implementation](21b136cc63/fs/namei.c (L4794-L4797))
only expects two arguments too.
It probably *should* have a flags parameter, but its too late now.
I am a bit surprised that linking glibc or musl against code that invokes
a 'link' with three parameters doesn't fail (at least, I couldn't get any
local test cases to trigger a compile or link error).
The test case in std/posix/test.zig is currently disabled, but if I
manually enable it, it works with this change.
The set of signals that cannot have their action changed is documented in POSIX,
and any additional, non-standard signals are documented by the specific OS. I
see no valid reason why EINVAL should be considered an unpredictable error here.
It is now composed of these main sections:
* Declarations that are shared among all operating systems.
* Declarations that have the same name, but different type signatures
depending on the operating system. Often multiple operating systems
share the same type signatures however.
* Declarations that are specific to a single operating system.
- These are imported one per line so you can see where they come from,
protected by a comptime block to prevent accessing the wrong one.
Closes#19352 by changing the convention to making types `void` and
functions `{}`, so that it becomes possible to update `@hasDecl` sites
to use `@TypeOf(f) != void` or `T != void`. Happily, this ended up
removing some duplicate logic and update some bitrotted feature
detection checks.
A handful of types have been modified to gain namespacing and type
safety. This is a breaking change.
Oh, and the last usage of `usingnamespace` site is eliminated.
Deprecated aliases that are now compile errors:
- `std.fs.MAX_PATH_BYTES` (renamed to `std.fs.max_path_bytes`)
- `std.mem.tokenize` (split into `tokenizeAny`, `tokenizeSequence`, `tokenizeScalar`)
- `std.mem.split` (split into `splitSequence`, `splitAny`, `splitScalar`)
- `std.mem.splitBackwards` (split into `splitBackwardsSequence`, `splitBackwardsAny`, `splitBackwardsScalar`)
- `std.unicode`
+ `utf16leToUtf8Alloc`, `utf16leToUtf8AllocZ`, `utf16leToUtf8`, `fmtUtf16le` (all renamed to have capitalized `Le`)
+ `utf8ToUtf16LeWithNull` (renamed to `utf8ToUtf16LeAllocZ`)
- `std.zig.CrossTarget` (moved to `std.Target.Query`)
Deprecated `lib/std/std.zig` decls were deleted instead of made a `@compileError` because the `refAllDecls` in the test block would trigger the `@compileError`. The deleted top-level `std` namespaces are:
- `std.rand` (renamed to `std.Random`)
- `std.TailQueue` (renamed to `std.DoublyLinkedList`)
- `std.ChildProcess` (renamed/moved to `std.process.Child`)
This is not exhaustive. Deprecated aliases that I didn't touch:
+ `std.io.*`
+ `std.Build.*`
+ `std.builtin.Mode`
+ `std.zig.c_translation.CIntLiteralRadix`
+ anything in `src/`
