The last Intel Quark MCU was released in 2015. Quark was announced to be EOL in
2019, and stopped shipping entirely in 2022.
The OS tag was only meaningful for Intel's weird fork of Linux 3.8.7 with a
special ABI that differs from the regular i386 System V ABI; beyond that, the
CPU itself is just a plain old P54C (i586). We of course keep support for the
CPU itself, just not Intel's Linux fork.
* This has not seen meaningful development for about a decade.
* The Linux kernel port was never upstreamed.
* The glibc port was never upstreamed.
* GCC 15.1 recently deprecated support it.
It may still make sense to support an ILP32 ABI on AArch64 more broadly (which
we already have the Abi.ilp32 tag for), but, to the extent that it even existed
in any "official" sense, the *GNU* ILP32 ABI is certainly dead.
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.
* arm_apcs is the long dead "OABI" which we never had working support for.
* arm_aapcs16_vfp is for arm-watchos-none which is a dead target that we've
dropped support for.
* `std.builtin.Panic` -> `std.builtin.panic`, because it is a namespace.
* `root.Panic` -> `root.panic` for the same reason. There are type
checks so that we still allow the legacy `pub fn panic` strategy in
the 0.14.0 release.
* `std.debug.SimplePanic` -> `std.debug.simple_panic`, same reason.
* `std.debug.NoPanic` -> `std.debug.no_panic`, same reason.
* `std.debug.FormattedPanic` is now a function `std.debug.FullPanic`
which takes as input a `panicFn` and returns a namespace with all the
panic functions. This handles the incredibly common case of just
wanting to override how the message is printed, whilst keeping nice
formatted panics.
* Remove `std.builtin.panic.messages`; now, every safety panic has its
own function. This reduces binary bloat, as calls to these functions
no longer need to prepare any arguments (aside from the error return
trace).
* Remove some legacy declarations, since a zig1.wasm update has
happened. Most of these were related to the panic handler, but a quick
grep for "zig1" brought up a couple more results too.
Also, add some missing type checks to Sema.
Resolves: #22584

This is not *quite* using the same features as the spec'd lime1 model because
LLVM 19 doesn't have the level of feature granularity that we need for that.
This will be fixed once we upgrade to LLVM 20.
Part of #21818.
As discussed in #21818, generic is a poor baseline model because that model is a
moving target in LLVM. Instead, use mvp, which has no features enabled.
NetBSD has long since migrated to the EABI and doesn't officially support the
OABI anymore. The ABI selection logic in LLVM only actually picks OABI for
NetBSD as a last resort if the EABI isn't selected. That fallback is likely to
be removed in the future. So just remove this support in Zig entirely.
While here, I also removed some leftover 32-bit Arm and 32-bit x86 code for
Apple targets, which are long dead and unsupported by Zig.
It doesn't appear that targeting bridgeOS is meaningfully supported by Apple.
Even LLVM/Clang appear to have incomplete support for it, suggesting that Apple
never bothered to upstream that support. So there's really no sense in us
pretending to support this.
