This removes the parentHandle argument from the internal calling convention.
It was formerly used to implment coroutines.
Now that coroutines have been removed, it is no longer necessary.
The target triples have to match mostly to be able to link LLVM modules.
Linking LLVM modules is already possible (the triples already match),
but testing becomes much easier when they match exactly.
For macOS, I picked "macosx10.12.0". That's an old and unsupported
version, but I had to pick _something_. Clang by default uses
"macos10.4.0", which is much older.
This layout parameter is currently always nil and ignored, but will
eventually contain a pointer to a memory layout.
This commit also adds module verification to the transform tests, as I
found out that it didn't (and therefore didn't initially catch all
bugs).
This attribute is also set by Clang when it compiles C source files
(unless -fexceptions is set). The advantage is that no unwind tables are
emitted on Linux (and perhaps other systems). It also avoids
__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0 on ARM when using the musl libc.
This commit changes a target triple like "armv6m-none-eabi" to
"armv6m-unknown-unknow-eabi". The reason is that while the former is
correctly parsed in Clang (due to normalization), it wasn't parsed
correctly in LLVM meaning that the environment wasn't set to EABI.
This change normalizes all target triples and uses the EABI environment
(-eabi in the triple) for Cortex-M targets.
This change also drops the `--target=` flag in the target JSON files,
the flag is now added implicitly in `(*compileopts.Config).CFlags()`.
This removes some duplication in target JSON files.
Unfortunately, this change also increases code size for Cortex-M
targets. It looks like LLVM now emits calls like __aeabi_memmove instead
of memmove, which pull in slightly more code (they basically just call
the regular C functions) and the calls themself don't seem to be as
efficient as they could be. Perhaps this is a LLVM bug that will be
fixed in the future, as this is a very common occurrence.
