This reduces the size of the Docker image from 13GB to 1.71GB, and
should therefore make CI of the drivers package much faster. It should
hopefully also avoid the out-of-space problem we currently have when
building the smoke tests for the drivers repo.
This size reduction is done by using multistage builds and only copying
the necessary files in the final stage.
- Use compiler-rt and picolibc instead of avr-libc.
- Use ld.lld instead of avr-ld (or avr-gcc).
This makes it much easier to get started with TinyGo on AVR because
installing these extra tools (gcc-avr, avr-libc) can be a hassle.
It also opens the door for future improvements such as ThinLTO.
There is a code size increase but I think it's worth it in the long run.
The code size increase can hopefully be reduced with improvements to the
LLVM AVR backend and to compiler-rt.
The Espressif fork of LLVM now has Xtensa support in the linker LLD.
(This support was written mosly by me). This means we don't have to use
the Espressif GNU toolchain anymore and makes installing TinyGo simpler.
In the future, this also paves the way for ThinLTO support. Right now it
is mostly just a way to simplify TinyGo installation and speed up CI
slightly.
This change implements a new "scheduler" for WebAssembly using binaryen's asyncify transform.
This is more reliable than the current "coroutines" transform, and works with non-Go code in the call stack.
runtime (js/wasm): handle scheduler nesting
If WASM calls into JS which calls back into WASM, it is possible for the scheduler to nest.
The event from the callback must be handled immediately, so the task cannot simply be deferred to the outer scheduler.
This creates a minimal scheduler loop which is used to handle such nesting.
This is really just a preparatory commit for musl support. The idea is
to store not just the archive file (.a) but also an include directory.
This is optional for picolibc but required for musl, so the main purpose
of this commit is the refactor needed for this change.
This adds support for stdio in picolibc and fixes wasm_exec.js so that
it can also support C puts. With this, C stdout works on all supported
platforms.
This commit also adds a bit of version independence, in particular for
external commands. It also adds the LLVM version to the `tinygo version`
command, which might help while debugging.
This should make it more maintainable. Another big advantage that
generation time (including gofmt) is now 3 times faster. No real attempt
at refactoring has been made, that will need to be done at a later time.
LLD version 8 has added support for armv6m:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D55555
This means we can use LLD instead of arm-none-eabi-ld, eliminating our
dependency on GNU binutils.
There are small differences in code size, but never more than a few
bytes.
Currently, if the user hasn't run
`git submodule update --init` beforehand, the docker build will fail
This little addition makes the build atomic and ready for automatic CI tests for the future
