hasMethodSet was computed from the raw, unfiltered method set length
(ms.Len() != 0), before generic methods were excluded from numMethods
and the method set value. For a type whose only method is generic
(e.g. "func (t T) M[X int](n X) X"), this left hasMethodSet true even
though the actual (filtered) method set is empty, causing an
unnecessary empty method-set global and methodSet field to be emitted
for that type's type descriptor.
Compute hasMethodSet from the same filtered loop that produces
numMethods, so it's true only when at least one non-generic method
exists.
Go 1.27 promoted "generic methods" (methods with their own type
parameters, independent of any type parameters on the receiver) out
of the GenericMethods experiment, e.g.:
func (r *Rand) N[Int intType](n Int) Int
Boxing a value of a type with such a method into an interface caused
tinygo to panic while building the runtime type's method table:
getTypeCode -> getMethodSetValue -> getTypeCodeName
getTypeCodeName's type switch has no case for *types.TypeParam, and a
generic method's Signature carries the method's own type parameters
in its parameter/result types (e.g. "Int" above), so encoding it into
a type code name panicked with "unknown type: <param name>".
This affected any package using math/rand/v2.Rand.N, including much of
the math/rand/v2 test suite, since printing or otherwise boxing a
*Rand into an interface is common.
Upstream reflect deliberately excludes generic methods from
Type.NumMethod()/Type.Method() (they can't be instantiated implicitly,
and a generic method can never satisfy an interface method), so mirror
that behavior: add isGenericMethod, which checks whether a method's
Signature has its own type parameters, and skip such methods when
building the runtime method count, method set value, and method set
in compiler/interface.go.
Fixes a panic isolated to:
package main
type T struct{}
func (t T) M[X int](n X) X { return n }
func main() {
var t T
var i interface{} = t
_ = i
}
LLVM ComputeValueVTs recursively expands arrays and structs into one
value type per scalar leaf. SelectionDAG call lowering allocates data
structures proportional to this count, which makes very large values
exhaust memory or crash LLVM.
Count scalar leaves and use pointers for internal parameters and results
when the count exceeds 1024. A result pointer is the first parameter,
and aggregate parameters point to read-only memory. Exported function
types are unchanged.
Keep these SSA values in memory and copy them with memcpy when needed.
Handle calls, interfaces, maps, channels, selects, defers, goroutines,
phis, and multiple results. Update the expected compiler IR and re-enable
the native compress/flate tests.
The interface lowering pass used a separate formatter for method
signatures. Same-named local aliases could therefore make distinct generic
methods compare equal. Reuse getTypeCodeName so interface checks preserve
type identity.
x/tools SSA names and go/types strings can preserve the source spelling of
type arguments, so aliases can make distinct instances collide. Use the
canonical type encoding for function names, synthetic local type owners,
instantiated named types, and method sets.
* compiler: make getTypeCodeName a method on compilerContext
* testdata: add regression tests for function-local named types
* compiler: disambiguate function-local named types
* Some PR feedback
Emit fault checkpoints around compiler-generated runtime assertions so
runtimePanicAt can unwind through the existing defer/recover machinery
instead of aborting. This lets panics from bounds checks, type checks,
and other compiler-inserted runtime checks be recovered by deferred
functions.
Mark functions that call recover as noinline. Inlining such a function
into a deferred closure can make recover observe the wrong call context
and report success when it should return nil.

The compiler needs to know whether a defer is in a loop to determine whether to allocate stack or heap memory.
Previously, this performed a DFS of the CFG every time a defer was found.
This resulted in time complexity jointly proportional to the number of defers and the number of blocks in the function.
Now, the compiler will instead use Tarjan's strongly connected components algorithm to find cycles in linear time.
The search is performed lazily, so this has minimal performance impact on functions without defers.
In order to implement Tarjan's SCC algorithm, additional state needed to be attached to the blocks.
I chose to merge all of the per-block state into a single slice to simplify memory management.
TODO: Remove the go.mod/go.sum in internal/tools once doing so doesn't break CI (e.g. once we drop support for go 1.19)
* builder/cc1as.h: fix typo found by 'make spell'
* GNUmakefile: remove exception for inbetween, fix instance now found by 'make spell'
* GNUmakefile: remove exception for programmmer, fix instance now found by 'make spell'
* go.mod: use updated misspell. GNUmakefile: add spellfix target, use it.
* ignore directories properly when invoking spellchecker.
* make spell: give internal/tools its own go.mod, as misspell requires newer go
* make lint: depend on tools and run the installed revive
(which was perhaps implied by the change that added revive to internal/tools,
but not required in GNUmakefile until we gave internal/tools its own temporary go.mod)
* .github: now that 'make spell' works well, run it from CI
* GNUmakefile: make spell now aborts if it finds misspelt words, so what it finds doesn't get lost in CI logs
* GNUmakefile: tools: avoid -C option on go generate to make test-llvm15-go119 circleci job happy, see
https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/2af48cbb7d85e5fdc635e75b99f949010c607786
* internal/tools/go.mod: fix format of go version to leave out patchlevel, else go complains.
Go 1.18 has been unsupported for quite a while now (the oldest supported
version is Go 1.21). But more importantly, the golang.org/x/tools module
now requires Go 1.19 or later. So we'll drop this older version.
This is a big change: apart from removing LLVM 14 it also removes typed
pointer support (which was only fully supported in LLVM up to version
14). This removes about 200 lines of code, but more importantly removes
a ton of special cases for LLVM 14.
This usually works by chance, but leads to crashes. So we should never
ever do this.
I'm pretty sure this is the crash behind this issue: https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/issues/3894
It may also have caused this crash: https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/issues/3874
I have a suspicion this is also behind the rather crash-prone CircleCI
jobs, that we haven't been able to find the source of. But we'll find
out soon enough once this fix is merged.
To avoid hitting this issue again in the future, I've created a PR to
remove these dangerous functions altogether from the go-llvm API:
https://github.com/tinygo-org/go-llvm/pull/54
It is possible to create function-local named types:
func foo() any {
type named int
return named(0)
}
This patch makes sure they don't alias with named types declared at the
package scope.
Bug originally found by Damian Gryski while working on reflect support.
This is a big commit that changes the way runtime type information is stored in
the binary. Instead of compressing it and storing it in a number of sidetables,
it is stored similar to how the Go compiler toolchain stores it (but still more
compactly).
This has a number of advantages:
* It is much easier to add new features to reflect support. They can simply
be added to these structs without requiring massive changes (especially in
the reflect lowering pass).
* It removes the reflect lowering pass, which was a large amount of hard to
understand and debug code.
* The reflect lowering pass also required merging all LLVM IR into one
module, which is terrible for performance especially when compiling large
amounts of code. See issue 2870 for details.
* It is (probably!) easier to reason about for the compiler.
The downside is that it increases code size a bit, especially when reflect is
involved. I hope to fix some of that in later patches.
A number of llvm.Const* functions (in particular extractvalue and
insertvalue) were removed in LLVM 15, so we have to use a builder
instead. This builder will create the same constant values, it simply
uses a different API.
Go 1.19 started reformatting code in a way that makes it more obvious
how it will be rendered on pkg.go.dev. It gets it almost right, but not
entirely. Therefore, I had to modify some of the comments so that they
are formatted correctly.
For example, this commit moves the 'throw' branch of an assertion (nil
check, slice index check, etc) to the end of the function while
inserting the "continue" branch right after the insert location. This
makes the resulting IR easier to follow.
For some reason, this also reduces code size a bit on average. The
TinyGo smoke tests saw a reduction of 0.22%, mainly from WebAssembly.
The drivers repo saw little average change in code size (-0.01%).
This commit also adds a few compiler tests for the defer keyword.
