Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
* move `ptrBitWidth` from Arch to Target since it needs to know about the abi
* double isn't always 8 bits
* AVR uses 1-byte alignment for everything in GCC
Also get rid of the TTY wrapper struct, which was exlusively used as a
namespace - this is done by the tty.zig root struct now.
detectTTYConfig has been renamed to just detectConfig, which is enough
given the new namespace. Additionally, a doc comment had been added.
This can be used to escape the usual meaning of `_` to indicate a
non-exhaustive enum and create an enum tag that is a literal underscore,
so zig fmt should allow this syntax.
Before, zig fmt changes
const E = enum { @"_" };
to the semantically different
const E = enum { _ };
After, it remains the same.
The majority of these are in comments, some in doc comments which might
affect the generated documentation, and a few in parameter names -
nothing that should be breaking, however.
Now they use slices or array pointers with any element type instead of
requiring byte pointers.
This is a breaking enhancement to the language.
The safety check for overlapping pointers will be implemented in a
future commit.
closes#14040
The CI now runs C backend tests in addition to compiling them. It uses
-std=c99 -pedantic -Werror in order to catch non-conformant C code.
This necessitated disabling a test case that caused a C compile error,
in addition to disabling a handful of warnings that are already being
triggered by Zig's C backend output for the behavior tests.
The upshot is that I was able to, very cleanly, integrate the C backend
tests into the build system, so that it communicates via the test runner
protocol along with all the other behavior tests.
std.Build.addTest creates a CompileStep as before, however, this kind of
step no longer actually runs the unit tests. Instead it only compiles
it, and one must additionally create a RunStep from the CompileStep in
order to actually run the tests.
RunStep gains integration with the default test runner, which now
supports the standard --listen=- argument in order to communicate over
stdin and stdout. It also reports test statistics; how many passed,
failed, and leaked, as well as directly associating the relevant stderr
with the particular test name that failed.
This separation of CompileStep and RunStep means that
`CompileStep.Kind.test_exe` is no longer needed, and therefore has been
removed in this commit.
* build runner: show unit test statistics in build summary
* added Step.writeManifest since many steps want to treat it as a
warning and emit the same message if it fails.
* RunStep: fixed error message that prints the failed command printing
the original argv and not the adjusted argv in case an interpreter
was used.
* RunStep: fixed not passing the command line arguments to the
interpreter.
* move src/Server.zig to std.zig.Server so that the default test runner
can use it.
* the simpler test runner function which is used by work-in-progress
backends now no longer prints to stderr, which is necessary in order
for the build runner to not print the stderr as a warning message.
std.zig.system.NativeTargetInfo.getExternalExecutor previously would
incorrectly communicate that wine could be used to run aarch64-windows
binaries on x86_64-linux, and x86_64-windows binaries on aarch64-linux.
Neither of these things are true.
* std.zig.ErrorBundle: support rendering options for whether to include
the reference trace, whether to include the source line, and TTY
configuration.
* build runner: don't print progress in dumb terminals
* std.Build.CompileStep:
- add a way to expect compilation errors via the new `expect_errors`
field. This is an advanced setting that can change the intent of
the CompileStep. If this slice has nonzero length, it means that
the CompileStep exists to check for compile errors and return
*success* if they match, and failure otherwise.
- remove the object format parameter from `checkObject`. The object
format is known based on the CompileStep's target.
- Avoid passing -L and -I flags for nonexistent directories within
search_prefixes. This prevents a warning, that should probably be
upgraded to an error in Zig's CLI parsing code, when the linker
sees an -L directory that does not exist.
* std.Build.Step:
- When spawning the zig compiler process, takes advantage of the new
`std.Progress.Node.setName` API to avoid ticking up a meaningless
number at every progress update.
The compiler now provides a server protocol for an interactive session
with another process. The build runner uses this protocol to communicate
compilation errors semantically from zig compiler subprocesses to the
build runner.
The protocol is exposed via stdin/stdout, or on a network socket,
depending on whether the CLI flag `--listen=-` or e.g.
`--listen=127.0.0.1:1337` is used.
Additionally:
* add the zig version string to the build runner cache prefix
* remove --prominent-compile-errors CLI flag because it no longer does
anything. Compilation errors are now unconditionally displayed at the
bottom of the build summary output when using the terminal-based
build runner.
* Remove the color field from std.Build. The build steps are no longer
supposed to interact with stderr directly. Instead they communicate
semantically back to the build runner, which has its own logic about
TTY configuration.
* Use the cleanExit() pattern in the build runner.
* Build steps can now use error.MakeFailed when they have already
properly reported an error, or they can fail with any other error
code in which case the build runner will create a simple message
based on this error code.
Introduces std.zig.ErrorBundle which is a trivially serializeable set
of compilation errors. This is in the standard library so that both
the compiler and the build runner can use it. The idea is they will
use it to communicate compilation errors over a binary protocol.
The binary encoding of ErrorBundle is a bit problematic - I got a little
too aggressive with compaction. I need to change it in a follow-up
commit to use some indirection in the error message list, otherwise
iteration is too unergonomic. In fact it's so problematic right now that
the logic getAllErrorsAlloc() actually fails to produce a viable
ErrorBundle because it puts SourceLocation data in between the root
level ErrorMessage data.
This commit has a simplification - redundant logic for rendering AST
errors to stderr has been removed in favor of moving the logic for
lowering AST errors into AstGen. So even if we get parse errors, the
errors will get lowered into ZIR before being reported. I believe this
will be useful when working on --autofix. Either way, some redundant
brittle logic was happily deleted.
In Compilation, updateSubCompilation() is improved to properly perform
error reporting when a sub-compilation object fails. It no longer dumps
directly to stderr; instead it populates an ErrorBundle object, which
gets added to the parent one during getAllErrorsAlloc().
In package fetching code, instead of dumping directly to stderr, it now
populates an ErrorBundle object, and gets properly reported at the CLI
layer of abstraction.
* Scan from line start when finding tag in tokenizer
This resolves a crash that can occur for invalid bytes like carriage
returns that are valid characters when not parsed from within literals.
There are potentially other edge cases this could resolve as well, as
the calling code for this function didn't account for any potential
'pending_invalid_tokens' that could be queued up by the tokenizer from
within another state.
* Fix carriage return crash in multiline string
Follow the guidance of #38:
> However CR directly before NL is interpreted as only a newline and not part of the multiline string. zig fmt will delete the CR.
Zig fmt already had code for deleting carriage returns, but would still
crash - now it no longer does so. Carriage returns encountered before
line-feeds are now appropriately removed on program compilation as well.
* Only accept carriage returns before line feeds
Previous commit was much less strict about this, this more closely
matches the desired spec of only allow CR characters in a CRLF pair, but
not otherwise.
* Fix CR being rejected when used as whitespace
Missed this comment from ziglang/zig-spec#83:
> CR used as whitespace, whether directly preceding NL or stray, is still unambiguously whitespace. It is accepted by the grammar and replaced by the canonical whitespace by zig fmt.
* Add tests for carriage return handling
