Functions like isMinGW() and isGnuLibC() have a good reason to exist: They look
at multiple components of the target. But functions like isWasm(), isDarwin(),
isGnu(), etc only exist to save 4-8 characters. I don't think this is a good
enough reason to keep them, especially given that:
* It's not immediately obvious to a reader whether target.isDarwin() means the
same thing as target.os.tag.isDarwin() precisely because isMinGW() and similar
functions *do* look at multiple components.
* It's not clear where we would draw the line. The logical conclusion before
this commit would be to also wrap Arch.isX86(), Os.Tag.isSolarish(),
Abi.isOpenHarmony(), etc... this obviously quickly gets out of hand.
* It's nice to just have a single correct way of doing something.
Acts as a replacement for `addSharedLibrary` and `addStaticLibrary`, but
linking mode can be changed more easily in build.zig, for example:
In library:
```zig
const linkage = b.option(std.builtin.LinkMode, "linkage", "Link mode for a foo_bar library") orelse .static; // or other default
const lib = b.addLibrary(.{
.linkage = linkage,
.name = "foo_bar",
.root_module = mod,
});
```
In consumer:
```zig
const dep_foo_bar = b.dependency("foo_bar", .{
.target = target,
.optimize = optimize,
.linkage = .static // or dynamic
});
mod.linkLibrary(dep_foor_bar.artifact("foo_bar"));
```
It also matches nicely with `linkLibrary` name.

The goal here is to support both levels of unwind tables (sync and async) in
zig cc and zig build. Previously, the LLVM backend always used async tables
while zig cc was partially influenced by whatever was Clang's default.
The freestanding and other OS targets by default need to just @trap in the
default Panic implementation.
And `isValidMemory` won't work with freestanding or other targets.
Update the unwind_freestanding.zig test case to also run on the 'other' OS
target, too. This should keep the Zig's stacktrace generation from
regressing on the standalone targets.
- look up the debuglink file in the directory of the executable file (instead of the cwd)
- fix parsing of debuglink section (the 4-byte alignement is within the file, unrelated to the in-memory address)
PR https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/20679 ("std.c reorganization")
switched feature-detection code to use "T != void" checks in place of
"@hasDecl". However, the std.posix.system struct is empty, so
compile-time feature detection against symbols in there (specifically
`std.posix.system.ucontext_t` in this case), fail at compile time on
freestanding targets.
This PR adds a void ucontext_t into the std.posix.system default.
This PR also adds pseudo-"freestanding" variation of the StackIterator
"unwind" test. It is sort of hacky (its freestanding, but assumes it can
invoke a Linux exit syscall), but it does detect this problem.
Fixes#20710
This change is seemingly insignificant but I actually agonized over this
for three days. Some other things I considered:
* (status quo in master branch) make Compile step creation functions
accept a Target.Query and delete the ResolvedTarget struct.
- downside: redundantly resolve target queries many times
* same as before but additionally add a hash map to cache target query
resolutions.
- downside: now there is a hash map that doesn't actually need to
exist, just to make the API more ergonomic.
* add is_native_os and is_native_abi fields to std.Target and use it
directly as the result of resolving a target query.
- downside: they really don't belong there. They would be available
as comptime booleans via `@import("builtin")` but they should not
be exposed that way.
With this change the downsides are:
* the option name of addExecutable and friends is `target` instead of
`resolved_target` matching the type name.
- upside: this does not break compatibility with existing build
scripts
* you likely end up seeing `target.result.cpu.arch` rather than
`target.cpu.arch`.
- upside: this is an improvement over `target.target.cpu.arch` which
it was before this commit.
- downside: `b.host.target` is now `b.host.result`.
Introduce the concept of "target query" and "resolved target". A target
query is what the user specifies, with some things left to default. A
resolved target has the default things discovered and populated.
In the future, std.zig.CrossTarget will be rename to std.Target.Query.
Introduces `std.Build.resolveTargetQuery` to get from one to the other.
The concept of `main_mod_path` is gone, no longer supported. You have to
put the root source file at the module root now.
* remove deprecated API
* update build.zig for the breaking API changes in this branch
* move std.Build.Step.Compile.BuildId to std.zig.BuildId
* add more options to std.Build.ExecutableOptions, std.Build.ObjectOptions,
std.Build.SharedLibraryOptions, std.Build.StaticLibraryOptions, and
std.Build.TestOptions.
* remove `std.Build.constructCMacro`. There is no use for this API.
* deprecate `std.Build.Step.Compile.defineCMacro`. Instead,
`std.Build.Module.addCMacro` is provided.
- remove `std.Build.Step.Compile.defineCMacroRaw`.
* deprecate `std.Build.Step.Compile.linkFrameworkNeeded`
- use `std.Build.Module.linkFramework`
* deprecate `std.Build.Step.Compile.linkFrameworkWeak`
- use `std.Build.Module.linkFramework`
* move more logic into `std.Build.Module`
* allow `target` and `optimize` to be `null` when creating a Module.
Along with other fields, those unspecified options will be inherited
from parent `Module` when inserted into an import table.
* the `target` field of `addExecutable` is now required. pass `b.host`
to get the host target.
