- Implement x86-64 extern(C), hopefully correctly.
- Tried to be a bit smarter about extern(D) while I was there.
Interestingly, this code seems to be generating more efficient code than
gcc and llvm-gcc in some edge cases, like returning a `{ [7 x i8] }` loaded from
a stack slot from an extern(C) function. (gcc generates 7 1-byte loads, while
this code generates a 4-byte, a 2-byte and a 1-byte load)
I also added some changes to make sure structs being returned from functions or
passed in as parameters are stored in memory where the rest of the backend seems
to expect them to be. These should be removed when support for first-class
aggregates improves.
Applied patch from ticket #129 to compile against latest LLVM. Thanks Frits van Bommel.
Fixed implicit return by asm block at the end of a function on x86-32. Other architectures will produce an error at the moment. Adding support for new targets is fairly simple.
Fixed return calling convention for complex numbers, ST and ST(1) were switched around.
Added some testcases.
I've run a dstress test and there are no regressions. However, the runtime does not seem to compile with symbolic debug information. -O3 -release -inline works well and is what I used for the dstress run. Tango does not compile, a small workaround is needed in tango.io.digest.Digest.Digest.hexDigest. See ticket #206 .
Fixed function literals in static initializers.
Changed alignment of delegates from 2*PTRSIZE to just PTRSIZE.
Changed errors to go to stderr instead of stdout.
Fairly major rewriting of struct/union/class handling, STILL A BIT BUGGY !!!
Changed the way struct/class fields are added, first small part of cleaning up these...
Make struct/class/union fields aware of any anonymous struct/union they might be part of, not yet really useful, but part of getting better union support.
Reimplemented support for nested functions/class using a new approach.
Added error on taking address of intrinsic.
Fixed problems with the ->syntaxCopy of TypeFunction delegate exp.
Removed DtoDType and replaced all uses with ->toBasetype() instead.
Removed unused inplace stuff.
Fixed a bunch of issues in the runtime unittests, not complete yet.
Added mini tests.
It is now possible to add label scopes in IrFunction and all labels names will be prefixed accordingly.
Also disallow goto into finally blocks.
Fixes nocompile/finally_02 and others.
Changed the tryfinally handlers to a more generalized EnclosingHandler.
Changed ClassInfoS to be mutable so they can be used as locks.
Added new BB after throw ala return/break etc.
Changed: removed the crappy realloc based dynamic memory runtime and started moving over to DMD style runtime support, part of moving to real GC.
Fixed: dynamic arrays now use GC runtime for allocating memory.
Fixed: new expression now use GC for allocating memory.
Changed: revamped the dynamic array support routines related to dynamic memory.
Fixed: assertions no longer create exsessive allocas.
Changed: misc. minor cleanups.
