Upstream, some of the nonshared functions moved to be different for hurd
and for linux. Since our glibc is linux-only we update to use the
linux-specific files.
This fixes std lib tests for x86_64 when linking glibc.
This commit introduces tools/update_glibc.zig to update the start files
for next time.
Some notable changes in recent glibc:
* abi-note.S has been changed to abi-note.c but we resist the change to
keep it easier to compile the start files.
* elf-init.c has been deleted upstream. Further testing should be done
to verify that binaries against glibc omitting elf-init.c still run
properly on oldel glibc linux systems.
Closes#4926
execve can return EBADLIB on Linux. I observed this when passing
an x86_64 interpreter path to qemu-i386.
This error code is Linux and Solaris-only. I came up with an improved
pattern for dealing with OS-specific error codes.
Since `BoundedArray.insert` internally reserves space for the element
to be inserted, it can support inserting at the position that is
the current length of the array. Change the check for the insertion position
to allow this.
- adds __cmpsi2, __cmpdi2, __cmpti2
- adds __ucmpsi2, __ucmpdi2, __ucmpti2
- use 2 if statements with 2 temporaries and a constant
- tests: MIN, MIN+1, MIN/2, -1, 0, 1, MAX/2, MAX-1, MAX if applicable
See #1290
- use negXi2.zig to prevent confusion with negXf2.zig
- used for size optimized builds and machines without carry instruction
- tests: special cases 0, -INT_MIN
* use divTrunc range and shift with constant offsets
See #1290
Notating a symbol to be exported in code will only tell the linker
where to find this symbol, so other object files can find it. However, this does not mean
said symbol will also be exported to the host environment. Currently, we 'fix' this by force
exporting every single symbol that is visible. This creates bigger binaries and means host environments
have access to symbols that they perhaps shouldn't have. Now, users can tell Zig which symbols
are to be exported, meaning all other symbols that are not specified will not be exported.
Another change is we now support `-rdynamic` in the wasm linker as well, meaning all symbols will
be put in the dynamic symbol table. This is the same behavior as with ELF. This means there's a 3rd strategy
users will have to build their wasm binary.
While investigating slow build times with [a large project](https://github.com/hexops/mach/issues/124),
I found that the compiler was reading from disk nearly every C source file in my project
when rebuilding despite no changes having been made. This accounted for several seconds of
time (approx. 20-30% of running `zig build` without any changes to the sources.)
The cause of this was that comparisons of file mtimes would _always_ fail (the mtime of the file on
disk was always newer than that stored in the cache manifest), and so the cache logic would always
fall back to byte-for-byte file content comparisons with what is on disk vs. in the cache-reading every
C source file in my project from disk during each rebuild. Because file contents were the same, a cache
hit occurred, and _despite the mtime being different the cache manifest would not be updated._
One can reproduce this by building a Zig project so the cache is populated, and then changing mtimes
of their C source files to be newer than what is in the cache (without altering file contents.)
The fix is rather simple: we should always write the updated cache manifest regardless of
whether or not a cache hit occurred (a cache hit doesn't indicate if a manifest is dirty) Luckily,
`writeManifest` already contains logic to determine if a manifest is dirty and becomes no-op if no
change to the manifest file is necessary-so we merely need to ensure it is invoked.

When the Zig compiler is statically linked, it inspects the
/usr/bin/env ELF file to determine the native glibc version, by checking
the DT_RUNPATH, and then calling readlink() on the libc.so file, because
typically the symlink will have e.g. libc-2.33.so in the name, revealing
the glibc version.
Fortunately, this information is also in readlink() of ld.so, which is
available as the "INTERP" file path. This commit looks for e.g.
`ld-2.33.so` on the symlink data for the dynamic linker.
In theory a more complete solution would also look at `/etc/ld.so.cache`
if necessary, and finally fall back to some hard coded paths, in order
to resolve the location of libc.so, in order to do this readlink() trick
on the resulting path. You can find that flow chart with `man ld.so`.
But I think this logic will be enough to get a correct answer in all real
world cases.
This has been tested on Debian Buster and glibc-based Void Linux.
Fixes#6469
This commit upgrades glibc shared library stub-creating code to use the
new abilists file which is generated by the new glibc-abi-tool project:
https://github.com/ziglang/glibc-abi-tool/
The abilists file is different in these ways:
* It additionally encodes whether a symbol is a function or an object,
and if it is an object, it additionally encodes the size in bytes.
* It additionally encodes migrations of symbols from one library to
another between glibc versions.
* It is binary data instead of ascii.
* It is one file instead of three.
* It is 165 KB instead of 200 KB.
This solves three bugs:
Fixes#7667Fixes#8714Fixes#8896
This way, we will inform the user that there are unresolved symbols
in addition to missing library/framework as requested on the linker
line. If all symbols were resolved on the other hand, we still
flag up that the library/framework cannot be found.
Example behaviour:
```
$ zig cc hello.c -framework MyFoundation --verbose
warning(link): framework not found for '-framework MyFoundation'
warning(link): Framework search paths:
warning(link): /Library/Frameworks
warning(link): /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks
thread 1079397 panic: attempt to unwrap error: FrameworkNotFound
...stack trace...
```
and
```
❯ zig cc hello.c -lWAT --verbose
warning(link): library not found for '-lWAT'
warning(link): Library search paths:
warning(link): /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib
warning(link): /usr/local/lib
thread 1079824 panic: attempt to unwrap error: LibraryNotFound
...stack trace...
```
We now respect both `-fallow-shlib-undefined` and
`-Wl,"-undefined=dynamic_lookup"` flags. This is the first step
towards solving issues #8180 and #3000. We currently do not expose
any other ld64 equivalent flag for `-undefined` flag - we basically
throw an error should the user specify a different flag. Support for
those is conditional on closing #8180. As a result of this change,
it is now possible to generate a valid native Node.js addon with Zig
for macOS.
- each byte gets masked, shifted and combined
- use boring masks instead of comptime for readability
- tests: bit patterns with reverse operation, if applicable
