This function is called from runtime.printitf, which is called from
runtime._panic, and is therefore the leaf function of many call paths.
This makes analyzing stack usage very difficult.
Also forwarding printuint32 to printuint64 as it reduces code size in
the few examples I've tested. Printing numbers is not often done so it
doesn't matter if it's a bit slow (the serial connection is probably
slower anyway).
The GC stack scanning code was implemented in the Cortex-M assembly, which meant that it was not available on the GBA which is pre-cortex.
This change adds a copy of the relevant code into a new asembly file which is used on the GBA.
Previously, a blocking select on a nil channel would result in a nil panic inside the channel runtime code.
This change fixes the nil checks so that the select works as intended.
This is the kind that is used in Go (actually CGo) for exporting
functions. I think it's best to use //export instead of our custom
//go:export pragma, for consistency (they are equivalent in TinyGo).
Therefore I've updated all instances to the standard format (except for
two that are updated in https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/1024).
No smoke tests changed (when comparing the output hash), except for some
wasm tests that include DWARF debug info and tend to be flaky anyway.
Previously, the compiler used LLVM's shift instructions directly, which have UB whenever the shifts are large or negative.
This commit adds runtime checks for negative shifts, and handles oversized shifts.
This gives the optimizer a bit more information about what the calls do.
This should result in slightly better generated code.
Code size sometimes goes up and sometimes goes down. I blame the code
size going up on the inliner which inlines more functions, because
compiling the smoke tests in the drivers repository with -opt=1 results
in a slight code size reduction in all cases.
This replaces the custom runtime.memcpy and runtime.memmove functions
with calls to LLVM builtins that should hopefully allow LLVM to better
optimize such calls. They will be lowered to regular libc memcpy/memmove
when they can't be optimized away.
When testing this change with some smoke tests, I found that many smoke
tests resulted in slightly larger binary sizes with this commit applied.
I looked into it and it appears that machine.sendUSBPacket was not
inlined before while it is with this commit applied. Additionally, when
I compared all driver smoke tests with -opt=1 I saw that many were
reduced slightly in binary size and none increased in size.
This hack was originally introduced in
https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/251 to fix an escape analysis
regression after https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/222
introduced nil checks. Since a new optimization in LLVM (see
https://reviews.llvm.org/D60047) this hack is not necessary anymore and
can be removed.
I've compared all regular tests and smoke tests before and after to
check the size. In most cases this change was an improvement although
there are a few regressions.
This is necessary for better CGo support on bare metal. Existing
libraries expect to be able to include parts of libc and expect to be
able to link to those symbols.
Because with this all targets have a working libc, it is now possible to
add tests to check that a libc in fact works basically.
Not all parts of picolibc are included, such as the math or stdio parts.
These should be added later, when needed.
This commit also avoids the need for the custom memcpy/memset/memcmp
symbols that are sometimes emitted by LLVM. The C library will take care
of that.
This adds support for the `-scheduler=tasks` flag for AVR. On most AVR
chips you wouldn't want to run a real scheduler but it may be useful in
some cases, especially on devices with more RAM. It is disabled by
default.
This patch is a combination of two related changes:
1. The compiler now allows other types than `int` when specifying the
size of a channel in a make(chan ..., size) call.
2. The compiler now checks for maximum allowed channel sizes. Such
checks are trivially optimized out in the vast majority of cases as
channel sizes are usually constant.
I discovered this issue when trying out channels on AVR.
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 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
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.
This commit adds support for software vectoring in the PLIC interrupt.
The interrupt table is created by the compiler, which leads to very
compact code while retaining the flexibility that the interrupt API
provides.
This might sound crazy, but I think it's better to enable the GC by
default to avoid surprises. It costs 1130 bytes of flash and 16 bytes of
RAM (plus heap overhead) so it's not exactly free, but if needed it can
easily be disabled with `-gc=leaking`. On the Uno (32kB flash, 2kB RAM)
that's not massive, on the DigiSpark (8kB flash, 0.5kB RAM) that may be
too much depending on the application.
This implementation simply casts types without special support to an
interface, to make the implementation simpler and possibly reducing the
code size too. It will likely be slower than the canonical Go
implementation though (which builds special compare and hash functions
at compile time).
This allows CGo code to call some libc functions. Additionally, by
putting memset/memmove/memcpy in an archive they're not included anymore
when not necessary, reducing code size for small programs.
This commit lets the compiler know about interrupts and allows
optimizations to be performed based on that: interrupts are eliminated
when they appear to be unused in a program. This is done with a new
pseudo-call (runtime/interrupt.New) that is treated specially by the
compiler.
This can be useful for debugging critical bugs in code. I haven't added
human-readable exceptions (such as "illegal instruction" or "stack
overflow") yet, they can be added when they happen in practice (to avoid
increasing code size too much).
This commit adds support for timer interrupts, replacing the busy loop
that was used before. It is perhaps the most simple interrupt to
implement and should serve as the basis for further interrupt support in
RISC-V.
The CLINT is implemented both on the fe310-g002 chip and in the sifive_e
QEMU machine type. Therefore, use that peripheral for consistency.
The only difference is the clock speed, which runs at 10MHz in QEMU for
some reason instead of 32.768kHz as on the physical HiFive1 boards.
QEMU doesn't support the RTC peripheral yet so work around it for now.
This makes the following command work:
tinygo run -target=hifive1-qemu ./testdata/coroutines.go
These all-caps constants aren't in the Go style, so rename it to
CPUFrequency (which is more aligned with Go style). Additionally, make
it a function so that it is possible to add support for changing the
frequency in the future.
Tested by running `make smoketest`. None of the outputs did change.
