This ensures that the Zig version will be re-computed when jumping
through the source tree, which is especially important if bisecting
across AstGen- or other changes that must not use the old cache.
* 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.
CMake recognizes the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH environment variable for some
things, and also the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH cache variable for other things.
However, it does not relate these two things, i.e. if the environment
variable is set, CMake does not populate the cache variable in a
corresponding manner. Some package systems, such as Homebrew, set the
environment variable but not the cache variable. Furthermore, the
environment variable follows the system path separator, such as ':' on
POSIX and ';' on Windows, but the cache variable follows CMake's array
behavior, i.e. always ';' for a separator.

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.
* CMakeLists: pass `-Dstrip` for release zig builds
* pass -target and -mcpu to zig1. works around llvm on freebsd
incorrectly detecting "freestanding" instead of "freebsd" for the
native OS.
* ci.ziglang.org is now responsible for creating aarch64-macos tarballs
rather than Azure.
This is a simplification of the cmake build script which introduces a
new "stage3" target that is built by default, which builds and installs
a stage3 zig.
It greatly simplifies the build instructions for Zig, making it conform
to the regular cmake routine, while still producing a stage3 artifact.
Now instead of zig.h being baked into the compiler binary, it is a
header file distributed along with all the other header files
distributed with Zig.
Closes#11643
This commit reworks the LLVM/Clang/LLD discovery process for CMake. The
biggest changes are that:
1. We search for LLVM from most preferred directory to least, skipping
any `llvm-config` that is the wrong version, or that doesn't
support the requested link mode ("static" or "shared").
2. `ZIG_PREFER_CLANG_CPP_DYLIB` has been renamed to `ZIG_SHARED_LLVM`,
to better align with `ZIG_STATIC_LLVM`.
3. We only search for LLVM in the same directory alongside LLVM.
4. LLVM's link mode is forwarded to Clang, so that we can look for the
appropriate shared/static libraries.
5. We use `--link-static` when querying `--system-libs` from llvm-config,
so that this will include libz and other dependencies for
statically linking LLD
CMake has a surprising default behavior where looking up a library by
multiple names gives the name order higher priority than the directory
search order.
For example, if your system provides "llvm-config-14" and
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH includes "llvm-config", CMake will always end up
choosing the system-provided llvm-config-14.
This change add NAMES_PER_DIR to request the more sensible behavior:
directory search order has higher priority than name order, so
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH always wins over system-provided tools/libraries.
LLVM 14 deprecated a bunch of C API functions in preparation for opaque
pointer changes. However, they did not actually implement opaque pointer
semantics, so the deprecations are largely masturbatory. I have nothing
against masturbation, I am just busy trying to get the self hosted
compiler done for 0.10.0, so we will come back to this later.
Rather than lowering float negation as `0.0 - x`.
* Add AIR instruction for float negation.
* Add compiler-rt functions for f128, f80 negation
closes#11853
After doing performance testing, it seems that multi-compilation-unit
compiler-rt did not bring the performance improvements that we expected
it to. The idea is that it makes linking faster, however, it incurred a
cost in the frontend that was not offset by any gains in linking.
Furthermore, the single-object compiler-rt (with -ffunction-sections and
--gc-sections) ends up being fewer bytes on disk and so it's actually
the same or faster linking speed than the multi-compilation-unit
version.
So we are planning to keep using single-compilation-unit compiler-rt for
the foreseeable future, but may experiment with this again in the
future, in which case this commit can be reverted.
The purpose of this branch is to switch to using an object file for each
independent function, in order to make linking simpler - instead of
relying on `-ffunction-sections` and `--gc-sections`, which involves the
linker doing the work of linking everything and then undoing work via
garbage collection, this will allow the linker to only include the
compilation units that are depended on in the first place.
This commit makes progress towards that goal.
Rename all references of sparcv9 to sparc64, to make Zig align more with
other projects. Also, added new function to convert glibc arch name to Zig
arch name, since it refers to the architecture as sparcv9.
This is based on the suggestion by @kubkon in PR 11847.

stage2: change logic for detecting whether the main package is inside
the std package. Previously it relied on realpath() which is not portable.
This uses resolve() which is how imports already work.
* stage2: fix cleanup bug when creating Module
* flatten lib/std/special/* to lib/*
- this was motivated by making main_pkg_is_inside_std false for
compiler_rt & friends.
* rename "mini libc" to "universal libc"
* unify the logic for exporting math functions from compiler-rt,
with the appropriate suffixes and prefixes.
- add all missing f128 and f80 exports. Functions with missing
implementations call other functions and have TODO comments.
- also add f16 functions
* move math functions from freestanding libc to compiler-rt (#7265)
* enable all the f128 and f80 code in the stage2 compiler and behavior
tests (#11161).
* update std lib to use builtins rather than `std.math`.
Add placeholder files for Codegen, Emit, and Mir stages, complete with
a placeholder implementation of generate() to make it able to be plugged in
to the frontend. At the moment the implementation just panics, it'll be
worked on incrementally later.
Also, this registers the sparcv9 backend files into CMakeLists.txt.
