* remove deprecated `std.fs.Dir` APIs
* `std.fs.Dir.openDir` now takes a options struct with bool fields for
`access_sub_paths` and `iterate`. It's now much more clear how
opening directories works.
* fixed the std lib and various zig code calling the wrong openDir
function.
* the runtime safety check for dir flags is removed in favor of the
cheaper option of putting a comment on the same line as handling
EBADF / ACCESS_DENIED, since that will show up in stack traces.
Add std.Target.Cpu.Model.generic which is even more empty than baseline.
CPU model and feature detection uses this rather than baseline.
Rename cpu_detected to cpu_detection_unimplemented and flip the logic.
It can be relied on by stage2.zig to decide whether the LLVM workaround
is needed without also checking the CrossTarget.
Move the CPU detection to after the OS detection, and use the detected
OS for the CPU detection. This is relevant because operating systems
sometimes emulate certain CPU features, so knowing the OS and version is
relevant for determining CPU features.
Prepare for #4592 by passing the CPU arch to the detection code, instead
of having it rely on Target.current.
The CPU model & feature detection logic is modified. Before:
* Detect actual features
* Use as hint when detecting CPU model
* Populate dependencies of CPU model features
* Merge that into the actual features set
After:
* Detect actual features
* Use as hint when detecting CPU model
* Add known CPU model features to actual features
* Detect actual features again, overriding known CPU model features
* Populate dependencies
* rework os.sendfile and add macosx support, and a fallback
implementation for any OS.
* fix sendto compile error
* std.os write functions support partial writes. closes#3443.
* std.os pread / pwrite functions can now return `error.Unseekable`.
* std.fs.File read/write functions now have readAll/writeAll variants
which loop to complete operations even when partial reads/writes
happen.
* Audit std.os read/write functions with respect to Linux returning
EINVAL for lengths greater than 0x7fff0000.
* std.os read/write shim functions do not unnecessarily loop. Since
partial reads/writes are part of the API, the caller will be forced
to loop anyway, and so that would just be code bloat.
* Improve doc comments
* Add a non-trivial test for std.os.sendfile
* Fix std.os.pread on 32 bit Linux
* Add missing SYS_sendfile bit on aarch64
* `std.Target.getStandardDynamicLinkerPath` =>
`std.Target.standardDynamicLinkerPath`
* it now takes a pointer to fixed size array rather than an allocator
* `std.zig.system.NativeTargetInfo.detect` now supports reading
PT_INTERP from /usr/bin/env
* re-introduce `std.build.Target` which is distinct from `std.Target`.
`std.build.Target` wraps `std.Target` so that it can be annotated as
"the native target" or an explicitly specified target.
* `std.Target.Os` is moved to `std.Target.Os.Tag`. The former is now a
struct which has the tag as well as version range information.
* `std.elf` gains some more ELF header constants.
* `std.Target.parse` gains the ability to parse operating system
version ranges as well as glibc version.
* Added `std.Target.isGnuLibC()`.
* self-hosted dynamic linker detection and glibc version detection.
This also adds the improved logic using `/usr/bin/env` rather than
invoking the system C compiler to find the dynamic linker when zig
is statically linked. Related: #2084
Note: this `/usr/bin/env` code is work-in-progress.
* `-target-glibc` CLI option is removed in favor of the new `-target`
syntax. Example: `-target x86_64-linux-gnu.2.27`
closes#1907
std.os.getenv and std.os.getenvZ have nice compile errors when not linking
libc and using Windows.
std.os.getenvW is provided as a Windows-only API that does not require
an allocator. It uses the Process Environment Block.
std.process.getEnvVarOwned is improved to be a simple wrapper on top of
std.os.getenvW.
std.process.getEnvMap is improved to use the Process Environment Block
rather than calling GetEnvironmentVariableW.
std.zig.system.NativePaths uses process.getEnvVarOwned instead of
std.os.getenvZ, which works on Windows as well as POSIX.
