This hack was initially introduced as we would export all symbols
unconditionally, including non-function definitions. This would cause
an error from the Wasmtime runtime engine, which this flag would
suppress. As we now properly export symbols, this flag is no longer
needed and any user running into this error can manually include it.
This commit also adds the `--import-symbols` ability to build.zig
This commit moves the logic from `std.build.InstallRawStep` into `zig
objcopy`. The options here are limited, but we can add features as
needed.
closes#9261
New issues can be opened for specific objcopy flag support.
There are still a few occurrences of "stage1" in the standard library
and self-hosted compiler source, however, these instances need a bit
more careful inspection to ensure no breakage.
* Export invalidFmtErr
To allow consistent use of "invalid format string" compile error
response for badly formatted format strings.
See https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/13489#issuecomment-1311759340.
* Replace format compile errors with invalidFmtErr
- Provides more consistent compile errors.
- Gives user info about the type of the badly formated value.
* Rename invalidFmtErr as invalidFmtError
For consistency. Zig seems to use “Error” more often than “Err”.
* std: add invalid format string checks to remaining custom formatters
* pass reference-trace to comp when building build file; fix checkobjectstep
When an object file or binary contains the target_features section
we can now parse and then dump its contents in string format so
we can use them in our linker tests to verify the features section.
When creating an `EmulatableRunStep`, it now correctly depends
on its own step rather than only the executable that was created.
This means we do not need to add extra `dependOn` statements on
both the emulatable step as well as the check object step.
* Sema: implement linksection on functions
* Implement function linksection in Sema.
* Don't clobber function linksection/align/addrspace in Sema.
* Fix copy-paste typo in tests.
* Add a bunch of missing test_step.dependOn.
* Fix checkInSymtab match.
Closes#12546
Before, native glibc and dynamic linker detection attempted to use the
executable's own binary if it was dynamically linked to answer both the
C ABI question and the dynamic linker question. However, this could be
problematic on a system that uses a RUNPATH for the compiler binary,
locking it to an older glibc version, while system binaries such as
/usr/bin/env use a newer glibc version. The problem is that libc.so.6
glibc version will match that of the system while the dynamic linker
will match that of the compiler binary. Executables with these versions
mismatching will fail to run.
Therefore, this commit changes the logic to be the same regardless of
whether the compiler binary is dynamically or statically linked. It
inspects `/usr/bin/env` as an ELF file to find the answer to these
questions, or if there is a shebang line, then it chases the referenced
file recursively. If that does not provide the answer, then the function
falls back to defaults.
This commit also solves a TODO to remove an Allocator parameter to the
detect() function.
Implements running and verifying the expected output when a binary is run.
Also adds warnings when a binary is skipped because of incompatibility.
This warning can be hidden by either setting the option manually through build.zig,
or by providing the option `-Dhide_foreign_warnings`.
This creates a new step that can run foreign binaries when
emulation is enabled using options such as `enable_qemu`.
When an incompatible binary is found, the binary will not be executed.
This differs from `RunStep` which will always execute a binary,
regardless of the compatibility.
This is useful for usecases where the user wishes to allow for running the
binary on any supported platform either natively or through emulation,
but not generate an error when met with an incompatibility.
The above is useful when creating test cases that rely on running the binary
and optionally verifying its output.
The addition of this Step was generated by the need for our linker tests.
For that reason, a handy function was created on `CheckObjectStep` to ease
the setup for that.
* test/link: initial wasm support
This adds basic parsing and dumping of wasm section so they
can be tested using the new linker-test infrastructure.
* test/link: all wasm sections parsing and dumping
We now parse and dump all sections for the wasm binary format.
Currently, this only dumps the name of a custom section.
Later this should also dump symbol table, name, linking metadata and relocations.
All of those live within the custom sections.
* Add wasm linker test
This also fixes a parser mistake in reading the flags.
* test/link: implement linker tests wasm & fixes
Adds several test cases to test the wasm self-hosted linker.
This also introduces fixes that were caught during the implementation
of those tests.
* test-runner: obey omit_stage2 for standalone
When a standalone test requires stage2, but stage2 is omit
from the compiler, such test case will not be included as part
of the test suite that is being ran. This is to support CI's
where we omit stage2 to lower the memory usage.
Improve testing MachO binaries by verbose printing of the symtab
which includes segment,section names for defined symbols, and
import (dylib) name for imports.
This approach is more inline with what LLVM/LLD does for testing
of their output, and seems to be more generic and easier to extend
than implementing a lot of repetitive and nontrivial comparison
logic when working directly on structures.
CheckMachOStep specialises CheckFileStep into directed (surgical)
MachO file fuzzy searches. This will be the building block for
comprehensive MachO linker tests.
