We now parse each CFI to read its encoding as opposed to assuming that
all CFIs within the same EH_Frame uses the same encoding. FDEs are now
iterated in a per-CFI manner.
All allocas for temporary objects are now placed in the beginning of the
function. Allocas for on-temporary objects are not modified because
these variables may appear in a loop and thus must be uniquely
allocated by different allocas.
Previously, the IR which sets up the call to the target function will
have its debug location pointing at the last argument of the function
call instead of the function call itself.
All allocas for temporary objects are now placed in the beginning of the
function. Allocas for on-temporary objects are not modified because
these variables may appear in a loop and thus must be uniquely
represented.
old_loop_target is only assigned if ctx.loop_target is overwritten,
meaning that if ctx.loop_target is never overwritten, ctx.loop_target
will always be overwritten to None.
We fix this by only restoring from old_loop_target if we previously
assigned to old_loop_target.
All parameters with a structure type in extern functions are marked as
`byref` instead of `byval`, as most ABIs require the first several
arguments to be passed in registers before spilling into the stack.
`byval` breaks this contract by explicitly requiring all arguments to be
passed in the stack, breaking interop with libraries written in other
languages.
In LLVM, i1 represents a 1-byte integer with a single valid bit; The
rest of the 7 upper bits are undefined. This causes problems when
using these variables in memory operations (e.g. memcpy/memmove as
needed by List slicing and assignment).
We fix this by treating all local boolean variables as i8 so that they
are well-defined for memory operations. Function ABIs will continue to
use i1, as memory operations cannot be directly performed on function
arguments or return types, instead they are always converted back into
local boolean variables (which are i8s anyways).
Fixes#315.
