The copy builtin is defined as follows by the Go language spec:
copy(dst, src []T) int
copy(dst []byte, src string) int
In other words, it returns an int. The runtime.sliceCopy compiler
intrinsic returned a uintptr instead, which led to a problem while
compiling the strings package for AVR.
No other architecture should be affected by this change as the
conversion from an uintptr to an int is a no-op on most architectures.
This fixes an error like the following:
E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found.
N: Is the package apt-transport-https installed?
Apparently apt.llvm.org has been switched over to HTTPS. One solution
could be to install apt-transport-https, but another (easier) solution
is to switch to a newer container.
Note: I did not switch the other containers, to make sure TinyGo is
still built with an older Debian release. That ensures the resulting
binaries are relatively portable across distros, even relatively old
distros.
This makes the `make wasi-libc` command much more reliable and makes the
CI configuration simpler. Also, it avoids warnings when they are not
relevant.
Previously using defer with an exported function generated an invalid function call due to differences between TinyGo's calling convention and the C calling convention.
This adds an optimization to EmitPointerPack when all values are constants.
The values are stored in a constant global instead of on the heap.
This eliminates a heap allocation, and can reduce binary size.
This marks the libc function abort as non-returning. This allows LLVM to optimize away code after panics. Also, this allows deadlocks to be properly propogated with the coroutines scheduler.
This allows TinyGo-built binaries to run under wasmtime, for example:
tinygo build -o test.wasm -no-debug -target=wasm examples/test
wasmtime run test.wasm 0
This avoids problems with goroutines in WebAssembly, and is generally a
good thing. It fixes some cases of the following problem:
LLVM ERROR: Coroutines cannot handle non static allocas yet
Thanks to Kyle Lemons for the inspiration and original design. The
implementation in this commit is very different however, building on top
of the software vectoring needed in RISC-V. The result is a flexible
interrupt handler that does not take up any RAM for configuration.
This is the same problem as in
https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/605, but other targets also
suffer from it.
Discovered with the GBA target, but as pointed out in
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42881#c1 this appears to be a bug
in the way external globals are declared, not in LLVM. Therefore I
decided that fixing it everywhere would be the best thing to do.
