Adds an `include_paths` field to RcSourceFile that takes a slice of LazyPaths. The paths are resolved and subsequently appended to the -rcflags as `/I <resolved path>`.
This fixes an accidental regression from https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/19174. Before that PR, all Win32 resource compilation would inherit the CC flags (via `addCCArgs`), which included things like include directories. After that PR, though, that is no longer the case.
However, this commit intentionally does not restore the previous behavior (inheriting the C include paths). Instead, each .rc file will need to have its include paths specified directly and the include paths only apply to one particular resource script. This allows more fine-grained control and has less potentially surprising behavior (at the cost of some convenience).
Closes#19605
This commit reverts the handling of partially-undefined values in
bitcasting to transform these bits into an arbitrary numeric value,
like happens on `master` today.
As @andrewrk rightly points out, #19634 has unfortunate consequences
for the standard library, and likely requires more thought. To avoid
a major breaking change, it has been decided to revert this design
decision for now, and make a more informed decision further down the
line.
I have noted several latent bugs in the handling of packed memory on
big-endian targets, and one of them has been exposed by the previous
commit, triggering this test failure. I am opting to disable it for now
on the ground that the commit preceding this one helps far more than it
hurts.
We've got a big one here! This commit reworks how we represent pointers
in the InternPool, and rewrites the logic for loading and storing from
them at comptime.
Firstly, the pointer representation. Previously, pointers were
represented in a highly structured manner: pointers to fields, array
elements, etc, were explicitly represented. This works well for simple
cases, but is quite difficult to handle in the cases of unusual
reinterpretations, pointer casts, offsets, etc. Therefore, pointers are
now represented in a more "flat" manner. For types without well-defined
layouts -- such as comptime-only types, automatic-layout aggregates, and
so on -- we still use this "hierarchical" structure. However, for types
with well-defined layouts, we use a byte offset associated with the
pointer. This allows the comptime pointer access logic to deal with
reinterpreted pointers far more gracefully, because the "base address"
of a pointer -- for instance a `field` -- is a single value which
pointer accesses cannot exceed since the parent has undefined layout.
This strategy is also more useful to most backends -- see the updated
logic in `codegen.zig` and `codegen/llvm.zig`. For backends which do
prefer a chain of field and elements accesses for lowering pointer
values, such as SPIR-V, there is a helpful function in `Value` which
creates a strategy to derive a pointer value using ideally only field
and element accesses. This is actually more correct than the previous
logic, since it correctly handles pointer casts which, after the dust
has settled, end up referring exactly to an aggregate field or array
element.
In terms of the pointer access code, it has been rewritten from the
ground up. The old logic had become rather a mess of special cases being
added whenever bugs were hit, and was still riddled with bugs. The new
logic was written to handle the "difficult" cases correctly, the most
notable of which is restructuring of a comptime-only array (for
instance, converting a `[3][2]comptime_int` to a `[2][3]comptime_int`.
Currently, the logic for loading and storing work somewhat differently,
but a future change will likely improve the loading logic to bring it
more in line with the store strategy. As far as I can tell, the rewrite
has fixed all bugs exposed by #19414.
As a part of this, the comptime bitcast logic has also been rewritten.
Previously, bitcasts simply worked by serializing the entire value into
an in-memory buffer, then deserializing it. This strategy has two key
weaknesses: pointers, and undefined values. Representations of these
values at comptime cannot be easily serialized/deserialized whilst
preserving data, which means many bitcasts would become runtime-known if
pointers were involved, or would turn `undefined` values into `0xAA`.
The new logic works by "flattening" the datastructure to be cast into a
sequence of bit-packed atomic values, and then "unflattening" it; using
serialization when necessary, but with special handling for `undefined`
values and for pointers which align in virtual memory. The resulting
code is definitely slower -- more on this later -- but it is correct.
The pointer access and bitcast logic required some helper functions and
types which are not generally useful elsewhere, so I opted to split them
into separate files `Sema/comptime_ptr_access.zig` and
`Sema/bitcast.zig`, with simple re-exports in `Sema.zig` for their small
public APIs.
Whilst working on this branch, I caught various unrelated bugs with
transitive Sema errors, and with the handling of `undefined` values.
These bugs have been fixed, and corresponding behavior test added.
In terms of performance, I do anticipate that this commit will regress
performance somewhat, because the new pointer access and bitcast logic
is necessarily more complex. I have not yet taken performance
measurements, but will do shortly, and post the results in this PR. If
the performance regression is severe, I will do work to to optimize the
new logic before merge.

On Windows, the command line arguments of a program are a single WTF-16 encoded string and it's up to the program to split it into an array of strings. In C/C++, the entry point of the C runtime takes care of splitting the command line and passing argc/argv to the main function.
https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/18309 updated ArgIteratorWindows to match the behavior of CommandLineToArgvW, but it turns out that CommandLineToArgvW's behavior does not match the behavior of the C runtime post-2008. In 2008, the C runtime argv splitting changed how it handles consecutive double quotes within a quoted argument (it's now considered an escaped quote, e.g. `"foo""bar"` post-2008 would get parsed into `foo"bar`), and the rules around argv[0] were also changed.
This commit makes ArgIteratorWindows match the behavior of the post-2008 C runtime, and adds a standalone test that verifies the behavior matches both the MSVC and MinGW argv splitting exactly in all cases (it checks that randomly generated command line strings get split the same way).
The motivation here is roughly the same as when the same change was made in Rust (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87580), that is (paraphrased):
- Consistent behavior between Zig and modern C/C++ programs
- Allows users to escape double quotes in a way that can be more straightforward
Additionally, the suggested mitigation for BatBadBut (https://flatt.tech/research/posts/batbadbut-you-cant-securely-execute-commands-on-windows/) relies on the post-2008 argv splitting behavior for roundtripping of the arguments given to `cmd.exe`. Note: it's not necessary for the suggested mitigation to work, but it is necessary for the suggested escaping to be parsed back into the intended argv by ArgIteratorWindows after being run through a `.bat` file.
This adds the *std.Build owner to LazyPath so that lazy paths returned
from a dependency can be used in the application without friction or
footguns.
closes#19313
There is no way to know the expected parent pointer attributes (most
notably alignment) from the type of the field pointer, so provide them
in the first argument.
