In InitSymbol(), we try to be smart and emit a memcpy when there
are a number of values to store (e.g. for arrays, structs, etc.)
Unfortunately, this wasn't working as desired for bools (i.e. i1 types),
since the SizeOf() call that tried to figure out how many bytes to
copy would return 0 bytes, due to dividing the number of bits to copy
by 8.
Fixes issue #234.
Both ReturnStmt and DeclStmt now check the values being associated
with references to make sure that they are legal (e.g. it's illegal
to assign a varying lvalue, or a compile-time constant to a reference
type). Previously we didn't catch this and would end up hitting
assertions in LLVM when code did this stuff.
Mostly fixes issue #225 (except for adding a FAQ about what this
error message means.)
Closer compatibility with C++: given a non-reference type, treat matching
to a non-const reference of that type as a better match than a const
reference of that type (rather than both being equal cost).
Issue #224.
Implicit conversion to function types is now a more standard part of
the type conversion infrastructure, rather than special cases of things
like FunctionSymbolExpr immediately returning a pointer type, etc.
Improved AddressOfExpr::TypeCheck() to actually issue errors in cases
where it's illegal to take the address of an expression.
Added AddressOfExpr::GetConstant() implementation that handles taking
the address of functions.
Issue #223.
When reporting that a function has illegally been overloaded only
by return type, include "task", "export", and "extern "C"", as appropriate
in the error message to make clear what the issue is.
Finishes issue #216.
This actually wasn't a good idea, since we'd like ispc programs to be able to
have varying globals that it uses internally among ispc code, without having
errors about varying globals when generating headers.
Issue #214.
Now, if the user specified a CPU then we base the ISA choice on that--only
if no CPU and no target is specified do we use the CPUID-based check to
pick a vector ISA.
Improvement to fix to #205.
When we have an "extern" global, now we no longer inadvertently define
storage for it. Further, we now successfully do define storage when we
encounter a definition following one or more extern declarations.
Issues #215 and #217.
This was causing functions like round() to fail on SSE2, since it has code
that does:
x += 0x1.0p23f;
x -= 0x1.0p23f;
which was in turn being undesirably optimized away.
Fixes issue #211.
We were incorrectly trying to type convert the varying offset to a
uniform value, which in turn led to an incorrect compile-time error.
Fixes issue #201.
Rather than explicitly building a DAG and doing a topological sort,
just traverse structs recursively and emit declarations for all of
their dependent structs before emitting the original struct declaration.
Not only is this simpler than the previous implementation, but it
fixes a bug where we'd hit an assert if we had a struct with multiple
contained members of another struct type.
