Currently llvm-linkage mode (static vs dynamic) decides linkage mode
for system libstdc++/libc++ .
A previous commit only tested static mode for *BSD and netbsd was
reported to not work in dynamic mode.
We now special-case freebsd, openbsd, netbsd and dragonfly for dynamic
linking too.
- Revert the addition of CLANG_SYSTEM_LIBARIES and LLVM_SYSTEM_LIBRARIES
- Change addCMakeLibraryList to parse non-absolute path .lib dependencies as system libraries
Using zig cc with CMake on Windows was failing during compiler
detection. -nostdinc was causing the crt not to be linked, and Coff/lld.zig
assumed that wWinMainCRTStartup would be present in this case.
-nostdlib did not prevent the default behaviour of linking libc++ when
zig c++ was used. This caused libc++ to be built when CMake ran
ABI detection using zig c++, which fails as libcxxabi cannot compile
under MSVC.
- Change the behaviour of COFF -nostdinc to set /entry to the function that the
default CRT method for the specified subsystem would have called.
- Fix -ENTRY being passed twice if it was specified explicitly and -nostdlib was present.
- Add support for /pdb, /version, /implib, and /subsystem as linker args (passed by CMake)
- Remove -Ddisable-zstd, no longer needed
- Add -Ddisable-libcpp for use when bootstrapping on msvc
- add support for passing through .def files to the linker,
required for building libLTO.dll in LLVM
- fixup libcpp linking conditionals
- add option to skip linking zstd for use in bootstrapping (when
building against an LLVM with LLVM_ENABLE_ZSTD=OFF)
When building with LLVM, always do -lole32 -lversion -luuid even when
using the cmake-provided build stuff. Otherwise we get undefined symbols
when linking.
In general, we prefer compiler code to use relative paths based on open
directory handles because this is the most portable. However, sometimes
absolute paths are used, and sometimes relative paths are used that go
up a directory.
The recent improvements in 81d2135ca6
regressed the use case when an absolute path is used for the zig lib
directory mixed with a relative path used for the root source file. This
could happen when, for example, running the standard library tests, like
this:
stage3/bin/zig test ../lib/std/std.zig
This happened because the zig lib dir was inferred to be an absolute
directory based on the zig executable directory, while the root source
file was detected as a relative path. There was no common prefix and so
it was not determined that the std.zig file was inside the lib
directory.
This commit adds a function for resolving paths that preserves relative
path names while allowing absolute paths, and converting relative
upwards paths (e.g. "../foo") to absolute paths. This restores the
previous functionality while remaining compatible with systems such as
WASI that cannot deal with absolute paths.
* Old cmake option: `-DZIG_SKIP_INSTALL_LIB_FILES=ON`
* New cmake option: `-DZIG_NO_LIB=ON`
* Old build.zig option: `-Dskip-install-lib-files`
* New build.zig option: `-Dno-lib`
Motivation is making build commands easier to type.
This option can be used to produce a C backend build of the self-hosted
compiler, which only has the C backend enabled. Once the C backend is
capable of self-hosting, this will be a way for us to replace our stage1
codebase with a C backend build of self-hosted, which we can then use
for bootstrapping. See #5246 for more details.
Using this option right now results in a crash because the C backend is
not yet passing all the behavior tests.
build.zig: add a 'compile' step to compile the self-hosted compiler
without installing it.
Compilation: set cache mode to whole when using the LLVM backend and
--enable-cache is passed.
This makes `zig build` act the same as it does with stage1. Upside is
that a second invocation of `zig build` on an unmodified source tree
will avoid redoing the compilation again. Downside is that it will
proliferate more garbage in the project-local cache (same as stage1).
This can eventually be fixed when Zig's incremental compilation is more
robust; we can go back to having LLVM use CacheMode.incremental and rely
on it detecting no changes and avoiding doing the flush() step.
Previously, you might obtain `-lLLVM-15` from the CMake configuration,
but we might not be able to locate the library if it's not in your
system library path.

No longer introduce build options for tests. Instead, ZIG_EXE
environment variable is added to any invocation of `zig run` or `zig
test`.
The end result of this branch is the same: there is no longer a
mandatory positional command line argument when invoking zig test
binaries directly.
