According to the spec and C ABIs, the contents of padding is undefined.
This was breaking dstress creal_01,02,03,07,08,09 and 20 on x86-64.
The code was apparently added to fix creal_13,14 and 15, which explicitly
compare padding and assert if it's different. I'd argue those tests are broken.
(Also, on x86-64 they *also* fail)
The tests this fixes, on the other hand, are basic arithmetic.
functions.
There's no need to waste cycles with extern(D), which we get to define
ourselves. Fixes tests/mini/asm8.d. (Since the asm abiret code already assumed
{xmm0, xmm1} returns)
llvm::OStream provides all std::ostream functionality (by holding a
std::ostream* internally), but
* doesn't include <iostream>, avoiding per-file overhead.
* allows the stream pointer to be null, and the (inlined) operators do nothing
when that's the case. (This also allows removal of the ofstream("/dev/null")
hack Logger used when disabled, which presumably wasn't very portable)
- Moved main() into its own file gen/main.cpp
- Fixed basic cross compilation
- removed the option for setting OS
- added support for llc's mattr, mcpu and mtriple switches
- added basic ABI abstraction for return value rewrites, it's not perfect and will probably be completely rewritten once I get to handling parameter rewrites as well.
- x86-64 extern(C) abi for cfloat returns now match (llvm-)gcc.
Note: For a backward compatible interface, use the new bin/ldmd script. It
supports all old options while passing on anything it doesn't recognize.
Some changes caused by this:
* -debug and -version are now -d-debug and -d-version due to a conflict with
standard LLVM options.
* All "flag" options now allow an optional =true/=1/=false/=0 suffix.
* Some "hidden debug switches" starting with "--" were renamed because LLVM
doesn't care about the number of dashes, so they were conflicting with other
options (such as -c).
The new versions start with "-hidden-debug-" instead of "--"
* --help works, but has a non-zero exit code. This breaks some Tango scripts
which use it to test for compiler existence. See tango.patch.
Some changes not (directly) caused by this;
* (-enable/-disable)-FOO options are now available for pre- and postconditions.
* -march is used instead of -m (like other LLVM programs), but -m is an alias
for it.
* -defaultlib, -debuglib, -d-debug and -d-version allow comma-separated values.
The effect should be identical to specifying the same option multiple times.
I decided against allowing these for some other options because paths might
contain commas on some systems.
* -fPIC is removed in favor of the standard LLVM option -relocation-model=pic
Bug:
* If -run is specified as the last argument in DFLAGS, no error is generated.
(Not very serious IMHO)
The assembler was miscompiling "add" (specifically, the "add reg/mem, imm"
variations).
The change that caused this seems to have been made because without it, some
"add"s didn't compile at all.
This patch reverts the previous change, and makes sure assembler operands are
remapped correctly even though the input operands auto-generated due to
updating operations aren't explicitly used.
I think that technically, using "*m0" instead of "*0" allows LLVM to pick
between using the same memory as output 0 and using a new memory location.
(So far I haven't been able to construct a testcase that actually breaks
because of this, though)
The first was that unless otherwise specified, inputs are assumed to be in
registers even if they specify a "matching output" that's in memory.
While testing that fix, I also ran into a bug causing the generated "matching
output" for any input was always the first one instead of the correct one.
CFGSimplification pass.
The pass was originally added as a workaround for a LLVM 2.4 bug where debug
info would reference labels that have been optimized away.
While emitting a template instantiation only once is good for compile times
and binary sizes, it doesn't work with linkonce linkage as inlined function
bodies could be discarded. Since we don't want to inhibit inlining, templates
are reverted to the previous behavior, where an instantiation is emitted for
each module using it.
In the future, a custom inlining pass may allow us to switch back to
common/weak linkage and reenable smart template instance emission.
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 .
