Apple's own headers and tbd files prefer to think of Mac Catalyst as a distinct
OS target. Earlier, when DriverKit support was added to LLVM, it was represented
a distinct OS. So why Apple decided to only represent Mac Catalyst as an ABI in
the target triple is beyond me. But this isn't the first time they've ignored
established target triple norms (see: armv7k and aarch64_32) and it probably
won't be the last.
While doing this, I also audited all Darwin OS prongs throughout the codebase
and made sure they cover all the tags.
There is no straightforward way for the Zig team to access the Solaris system
headers; to do this, one has to create an Oracle account, accept their EULA to
download the installer ISO, and finally install it on a machine or VM. We do not
have to jump through hoops like this for any other OS that we support, and no
one on the team has expressed willingness to do it.
As a result, we cannot audit any Solaris contributions to std.c or other
similarly sensitive parts of the standard library. The best we would be able to
do is assume that Solaris and illumos are 100% compatible with no way to verify
that assumption. But at that point, the solaris and illumos OS tags would be
functionally identical anyway.
For Solaris especially, any contributions that involve APIs introduced after the
OS was made closed-source would also be inherently more risky than equivalent
contributions for other proprietary OSs due to the case of Google LLC v. Oracle
America, Inc., wherein Oracle clearly demonstrated its willingness to pursue
legal action against entities that merely copy API declarations.
Finally, Oracle laid off most of the Solaris team in 2017; the OS has been in
maintenance mode since, presumably to be retired completely sometime in the 2030s.
For these reasons, this commit removes all Oracle Solaris support.
Anyone who still wishes to use Zig on Solaris can try their luck by simply using
illumos instead of solaris in target triples - chances are it'll work. But there
will be no effort from the Zig team to support this use case; we recommend that
people move to illumos instead.
Basically everything that has a direct replacement or no uses left.
Notable omissions:
- std.ArrayHashMap: Too much fallout, needs a separate cleanup.
- std.debug.runtime_safety: Too much fallout.
- std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator: Lots of references to it remain, not
a simple find and replace as "debug allocator" is not equivalent to
"general purpose allocator".
- std.io.Reader: Is being reworked at the moment.
- std.unicode.utf8Decode(): No replacement, needs a new API first.
- Manifest backwards compat options: Removal would break test data used
by TestFetchBuilder.
- panic handler needs to be a namespace: Many tests still rely on it
being a function, needs a separate cleanup.
* fix compilation errors for fs and fs.Dir
* mem.span instead of mem.sliceTo
* Updating symLinkAbsoluteW function parameters
* Update with expected rename semantics
Deprecates std.fs.atomicSymLink and removes the allocator requirement
from the new std.fs.Dir.atomicSymLink. Replaces the two usages of this
within std.
I did not include the TODOs from the original code that were based
off of `switch (err) { ..., else => return err }` not having correct
inference that cases handled in `...` are impossible in the error
union return type because these are not specified in many places but
I can add them back if wanted.
Thank you @squeek502 for help with fixing buffer overflows!
Deprecated aliases that are now compile errors:
- `std.fs.MAX_PATH_BYTES` (renamed to `std.fs.max_path_bytes`)
- `std.mem.tokenize` (split into `tokenizeAny`, `tokenizeSequence`, `tokenizeScalar`)
- `std.mem.split` (split into `splitSequence`, `splitAny`, `splitScalar`)
- `std.mem.splitBackwards` (split into `splitBackwardsSequence`, `splitBackwardsAny`, `splitBackwardsScalar`)
- `std.unicode`
+ `utf16leToUtf8Alloc`, `utf16leToUtf8AllocZ`, `utf16leToUtf8`, `fmtUtf16le` (all renamed to have capitalized `Le`)
+ `utf8ToUtf16LeWithNull` (renamed to `utf8ToUtf16LeAllocZ`)
- `std.zig.CrossTarget` (moved to `std.Target.Query`)
Deprecated `lib/std/std.zig` decls were deleted instead of made a `@compileError` because the `refAllDecls` in the test block would trigger the `@compileError`. The deleted top-level `std` namespaces are:
- `std.rand` (renamed to `std.Random`)
- `std.TailQueue` (renamed to `std.DoublyLinkedList`)
- `std.ChildProcess` (renamed/moved to `std.process.Child`)
This is not exhaustive. Deprecated aliases that I didn't touch:
+ `std.io.*`
+ `std.Build.*`
+ `std.builtin.Mode`
+ `std.zig.c_translation.CIntLiteralRadix`
+ anything in `src/`
This implementation is now a direct replacement for the `kernel32` one.
New bitflags for named pipes and other generic ones were added based on
browsing the ReactOS sources.
`UNICODE_STRING.Buffer` has also been changed to be nullable, as
this is what makes the implementation work.
This required some changes to places accesssing the buffer after a
`SUCCESS`ful return, most notably `QueryObjectName` which even referred
to it being nullable.
A lot of these "shorthand" doc comments were redundant, low quality
filler content. Better to let the actual modules speak for themselves
with top level doc comments rather than trying to document their
aliases.
InvalidHandle in OpenError is no longer a possible error on any platform. In the past it was able to be returned in `openOptionsFromFlagsWasi`, but the implementation was changed in 7680c5330c to make it no longer possible.
InvalidHandle in RealPathError was a holdover from before d5312d53a0, which made realpath a compile error on WASI. However, InvalidHandle was also a possible error in the FreeBSD fallback implementation added in 537624734c. This commit changes the FreeBSD fallback implementation to return FileNotFound instead of InvalidHandle which matches how EBADF is handled in all the other `realpath` implementations (including the FreeBSD non-fallback implementation).
Closes#19084
Windows paths now use WTF-16 <-> WTF-8 conversion everywhere, which is lossless. Previously, conversion of ill-formed UTF-16 paths would either fail or invoke illegal behavior.
WASI paths must be valid UTF-8, and the relevant function calls have been updated to handle the possibility of failure due to paths not being encoded/encodable as valid UTF-8.
