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.
This commit includes two changes:
* It makes unexported interface methods package-private, so that it's
not possible to type-assert on an unexported method in a different
package.
* It makes the globals used to identify interface methods defined
globals, so that they can (eventually) be left in the program for an
eventual non-LTO build mode.
The next commit will change the implementation of func values on Linux
as a result of switching to a task-based scheduler. To keep the
compiler/testdata/func.go test working as expected, switch to
WebAssembly tests.
Sometimes, LLVM may rename named structs when merging modules.
Therefore, we can't rely on typecodeID structs to retain their struct
names.
This commit changes the interface lowering pass to not rely on these
names. The interp package does however still rely on this name, but I
hope to fix that in the future.
This commit adds a new transform that converts reflect Implements()
calls to runtime.interfaceImplements. At the moment, the Implements()
method is not yet implemented (how ironic) but if the value passed to
Implements is known at compile time the method call can be optimized to
runtime.interfaceImplements to make it a regular interface assert.
This commit is the last change necessary to add basic support for the
encoding/json package. The json package is certainly not yet fully
supported, but some trivial objects can be converted to JSON.
This is important as golden test output and to verify that the output is
correct. Later improvements and bug fixes are clearly visible in the IR,
and unintentional changes will also be immediately spotted.
