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.
Apple has already dropped support for macOS 12.
GitHub Actions is dropping macOS 12 support now.
The Zig project is also dropping macOS 12 support now.
This commit also bumps default minimum macos version to 13.
This is necessary since isGnuLibC() is true for hurd, so we need to be able to
represent a glibc version for it.
Also add an Os.TaggedVersionRange.gnuLibCVersion() convenience function.
The old isARM() function was a portability trap. With the name it had, it seemed
like the obviously correct function to use, but it didn't include Thumb. In the
vast majority of cases where someone wants to ask "is the target Arm?", Thumb
*should* be included.
There are exactly 3 cases in the codebase where we do actually need to exclude
Thumb, although one of those is in Aro and mirrors a check in Clang that is
itself likely a bug. These rare cases can just add an extra isThumb() check.
Once we upgrade to LLVM 20, these should be lowered verbatim rather than to
simply musl. Similarly, the special case in llvmMachineAbi() should go away.
- Rename GPU address spaces to match with SPIR-V spec.
- Emit `Block` Decoration for Uniform/PushConstant variables.
- Don't emit `OpTypeForwardPointer` for non-opencl targets.
(there's still a false-positive about recursive structs)

This commit reworks how anonymous struct literals and tuples work.
Previously, an untyped anonymous struct literal
(e.g. `const x = .{ .a = 123 }`) was given an "anonymous struct type",
which is a special kind of struct which coerces using structural
equivalence. This mechanism was a holdover from before we used
RLS / result types as the primary mechanism of type inference. This
commit changes the language so that the type assigned here is a "normal"
struct type. It uses a form of equivalence based on the AST node and the
type's structure, much like a reified (`@Type`) type.
Additionally, tuples have been simplified. The distinction between
"simple" and "complex" tuple types is eliminated. All tuples, even those
explicitly declared using `struct { ... }` syntax, use structural
equivalence, and do not undergo staged type resolution. Tuples are very
restricted: they cannot have non-`auto` layouts, cannot have aligned
fields, and cannot have default values with the exception of `comptime`
fields. Tuples currently do not have optimized layout, but this can be
changed in the future.
This change simplifies the language, and fixes some problematic
coercions through pointers which led to unintuitive behavior.
Resolves: #16865
Its semantics are now documented in terms of DynamicLinker.kind(os.tag).
The idea here is two-fold:
* The term "standard" actually means something; we shouldn't return a valid
dynamic linker path for a triple for which it hasn't *actually* been
standardized. That's just incorrect. For example, previously, this function
would happily return a path for x86_64-linux-androideabi, csky-macos-gnu, or
aarch64-hurd-msvc, and other such obvious nonsense.
* Callers that use the return value from this function to do host probing (such
as std.zig.system.detectAbiAndDynamicLinker()) can now do so with greater
confidence because DynamicLinker.standard() will eagerly reject nonsensical
target triples.
hasDynamicLinker() was just kind of lying in the case of Darwin platforms for
the benefit of std.zig.system.detectAbiAndDynamicLinker(). A better name would
have been hasElfDynamicLinker() or something. It also got the answer wrong for a
bunch of platforms that don't actually use ELF. Anyway, this was clearly the
wrong layer to do this at, so remove this function and instead use
DynamicLinker.kind() + an isDarwin() check in detectAbiAndDynamicLinker().
This makes no difference presently, but if LLVM ever starts modeling features
for these, we would not get them by default for our baseline if we use the
generic model.
This matches Clang's defaults. That also means these CPU models tend to get more
testing, so they're a safer baseline choice. Anecdotally, the oldest MIPS
hardware that I've seen anyone run Zig on was also r2.
ppc64le remains the baseline CPU model. Note that there's nothing about little
endian, 64-bit PowerPC that requires the features in the ppc64le model; the
reason it exists is that 64-bit PowerPC wasn't really used in little endian mode
prior to those features being commonplace. That makes the ppc64le model a good
baseline model, but not the right choice for a generic model.
