* ZIR: the `array_type_sentinel` now has a source node attached to it
for proper error reporting.
* Refactor: move `Module.arrayType` to `Type.array`
* Value: the `bytes` and `array` tags now include the sentinel, if the
type has one. This simplifies comptime evaluation logic.
* Sema: fix `zirStructInitEmpty` to properly handle when the type is
void or a sentinel-terminated array. This handles the syntax `void{}`
and `[0:X]T{}`.
* Sema: fix the logic for reporting "cannot store runtime value in
compile time variable" as well as for emitting a runtime store when a
pointer value is comptime known but it is a global variable.
* Sema: implement elemVal for double pointer to array. This can happen
with this code for example: `var a: *[1]u8 = undefined; _ = a[0];`
* Sema: Rework the `storePtrVal` function to properly handle nested
structs and arrays.
- Also it now handles comptime stores through a bitcasted pointer.
When the pointer element type and the type according to the Decl
don't match, the element value is bitcasted before storage.
* Add AIR instructions: ret_ptr, ret_load
- This allows Sema to be blissfully unaware of the backend's decision
to implement by-val/by-ref semantics for struct/union/array types.
Backends can lower these simply as alloc, load, ret instructions,
or they can take advantage of them to use a result pointer.
* Add AIR instruction: array_elem_val
- Allows for better codegen for `Sema.elemVal`.
* Implement calculation of ABI alignment and ABI size for unions.
* Before appending the following AIR instructions to a block,
resolveTypeLayout is called on the type:
- call - return type
- ret - return type
- store_ptr - elem type
* Sema: fix memory leak in `zirArrayInit` and other cleanups to this
function.
* x86_64: implement the full x86_64 C ABI according to the spec
* Type: implement `intInfo` for error sets.
* Type: implement `intTagType` for tagged unions.
The Zig type tag `Fn` is now used exclusively for function bodies.
Function pointers are modeled as `*const T` where `T` is a `Fn` type.
* The `call` AIR instruction now allows a function pointer operand as
well as a function operand.
* Sema now has a coercion from function body to function pointer.
* Function type syntax, e.g. `fn()void`, now returns zig tag type of
Pointer with child Fn, rather than Fn directly.
- I think this should probably be reverted. Will discuss the lang
specs before doing this. Idea being that function pointers would
need to be specified as `*const fn()void` rather than `fn() void`.
LLVM backend:
* Enable calling the panic handler (previously this just
emitted `@breakpoint()` since the backend could not handle the panic
function).
* Implement sret
* Introduce `isByRef` and implement it for structs and arrays. Types
that are `isByRef` are now passed as pointers to functions, and e.g.
`elem_val` will return a pointer instead of doing a load.
* Move the function type creating code from `resolveLlvmFunction` to
`llvmType` where it belongs; now there is only 1 instance of this
logic instead of two.
* Add the `nonnull` attribute to non-optional pointer parameters.
* Fix `resolveGlobalDecl` not using fully-qualified names and not using
the `decl_map`.
* Implement `genTypedValue` for pointer-like optionals.
* Fix memory leak when lowering `block` instruction and OOM occurs.
* Implement volatile checks where relevant.
New ZIR instruction: elem_ptr_imm
This saves some memory for array literals since the element indexes are
communicated as immediate values rather than as references to other ZIR
instructions.
* stage2: array mul support more types of operands
* stage2: array cat support more types of operands
* print_zir: print array_init
* stage2: implement Sema for array_init
The big change in this commit is making `semaDecl` resolve the fields if
the Decl ends up being a struct or union. It needs to do this while
the `Sema` is still in scope, because it will have the resolved AIR
instructions that the field type expressions possibly reference. We do
this after the decl is populated and set to `complete` so that a `Decl`
may reference itself.
Everything else is fixes and improvements to make the test suite pass
again after making this change.
* New AIR instruction: `ptr_elem_ptr`
- Implemented for LLVM backend
* New Type tag: `type_info` which represents `std.builtin.TypeInfo`. It
is used by AstGen for the operand type of `@Type`.
* ZIR instruction `set_float_mode` uses `coerced_ty` to avoid
superfluous `as` instruction on operand.
* ZIR instruction `Type` uses `coerced_ty` to properly handle result
location type of operand.
* Fix two instances of `enum_nonexhaustive` Value Tag not handled
properly - it should generally be handled the same as `enum_full`.
* Fix struct and union field resolution not copying Type and Value
objects into its Decl arena.
* Fix enum tag value resolution discarding the ZIR=>AIR instruction map
for the child Sema, when they still needed to be accessed.
* Fix `zirResolveInferredAlloc` use-after-free in the AIR instructions
data array.
* Fix `elemPtrArray` not respecting const/mutable attribute of pointer
in the result type.
* Fix LLVM backend crashing when `updateDeclExports` is called before
`updateDecl`/`updateFunc` (which is, according to the API, perfectly
legal for the frontend to do).
* Fix LLVM backend handling element pointer of pointer-to-array. It
needed another index in the GEP otherwise LLVM saw the wrong type.
* Fix LLVM test cases not returning 0 from main, causing test failures.
Fixes a regression introduced in
6a5094872f.
* Implement comptime shift-right.
* Implement `@Type` for integers and `@TypeInfo` for integers.
* Implement union initialization syntax.
* Implement `zirFieldType` for unions.
* Implement `elemPtrArray` for a runtime-known operand.
* Make `zirLog2IntType` support RHS of shift being `comptime_int`. In
this case it returns `comptime_int`.
The motivating test case for this commit was originally:
```zig
test "example" {
var l: List(10) = undefined;
l.array[1] = 1;
}
fn List(comptime L: usize) type {
var T = u8;
return struct {
array: [L]T,
};
}
```
However I changed it to:
```zig
test "example" {
var l: List = undefined;
l.array[1] = 1;
}
const List = blk: {
const T = [10]u8;
break :blk struct {
array: T,
};
};
```
Which ended up being a similar, smaller problem. The former test case
will require a similar solution in the implementation of comptime
function calls - checking if the result of the function call is a struct
or union, and using the child `Sema` before it is destroyed to resolve
the fields.

Master branch added `try` to a bunch of testing function calls, and some
lines also had changed how to refer to the native architecture and other
`@import("builtin")` stuff.
