LDC_never_inline is a complementary intrinsic to LDC_allow_inline.
It tells the LLVM optimizer to never inline a function. This can be
useful if inlining creates incorrect code.
A possible application is core.thread.getStackTop().
This reverts commit c4adbedcc, which would have fixed the
problem at its roots, but caused strange template function
attribute inference failures in D-YAML, presumably due to
the different order of semantic3 execution on the templates.
DMD has the obscure functionality to install functions starting with
_STI_ as global ctors and funtions starting with _STD_ as global
dtors. IMHO a pragma is a better way to specify the behaviour.
This commit adds pragma(LDC_global_crt_ctor) and
pragma(LDC_global_crt_dtor). If the pragma is specified on a function
or static method then an entry is made in the corresponding list. E.g.
in monitor_.d:
extern (C) {
#pragma(LDC_global_crt_ctor)
void _STI_monitor_staticctor()
{
// ...
}
}
This works on Linux without problems. On Windows with MS C Runtime
ctors work always but dtors are invoked only if linked against the
static C runtime. Dtors on Windows require at least LLVM 3.2.
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 !!!
