Running `go install` on MacOS produces the following warning:
# github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo
ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/homebrew/opt/libffi/lib'
It doesn't look like libffi is used anywhere, so I simply removed it.
Not sure why it was included in the first place.
(I updated the Makefile for consistency, but we really should be
removing that Makefile especially because the Go bindings are removed in
upstream LLVM).
Switch over to LLVM 14 for static builds. Keep using LLVM 13 for regular
builds for now.
This uses a branch of the upstream Espressif branch to fix an issue,
see: https://github.com/espressif/llvm-project/pull/59
ThinLTO optimizes across LLVM modules at link time. This means that
optimizations (such as inlining and const-propagation) are possible
between C and Go. This makes this change especially useful for CGo, but
not just for CGo. By doing some optimizations at link time, the linker
can discard some unused functions and this leads to a size reduction on
average. It does increase code size in some cases, but that's true for
most optimizations.
I've excluded a number of targets for now (wasm, avr, xtensa, windows,
macos). They can probably be supported with some more work, but that
should be done in separate PRs.
Overall, this change results in an average 3.24% size reduction over all
the tinygo.org/x/drivers smoke tests.
TODO: this commit runs part of the pass pipeline twice. We should set
the PrepareForThinLTO flag in the PassManagerBuilder for even further
reduced code size (0.7%) and improved compilation speed.
This adds support for building with `-tags=llvm13` and switches to LLVM
13 for tinygo binaries that are statically linked against LLVM.
Some notes on this commit:
* Added `-mfloat-abi=soft` to all Cortex-M targets because otherwise
nrfx would complain that floating point was enabled on Cortex-M0.
That's not the case, but with `-mfloat-abi=soft` the `__SOFTFP__`
macro is defined which silences this warning.
See: https://reviews.llvm.org/D100372
* Changed from `--sysroot=<root>` to `-nostdlib -isystem <root>` for
musl because with Clang 13, even with `--sysroot` some system
libraries are used which we don't want.
* Changed all `-Xclang -internal-isystem -Xclang` to simply
`-isystem`, for consistency with the above change. It appears to
have the same effect.
* Moved WebAssembly function declarations to the top of the file in
task_asyncify_wasm.S because (apparently) the assembler has become
more strict.
This change uses flock (when available) to acquire locks for build operations.
This allows multiple tinygo processes to run concurrently without building the same thing twice.
This commit switches from the previous behavior of compiling the whole
program at once, to compiling every package in parallel and linking the
LLVM bitcode files together for further whole-program optimization.
This is a small performance win, but it has several advantages in the
future:
- There are many more things that can be done per package in parallel,
avoiding the bottleneck at the end of the compiler phase. This
should speed up the compiler futher.
- This change is a necessary step towards a non-LTO build mode for
fast incremental builds that only rebuild the changed package, when
compiler speed is more important than binary size.
- This change refactors the compiler in such a way that it will be
easier to inspect the IR for one package only. Inspecting this IR
will be very helpful for compiler developers.
Bump version to 1.1.2 in order to support darwin/arm64 within tinygo.

This can be useful to test improvements in LLVM master and to make it
possible to support LLVM 11 for the most part already before the next
release. That also allows catching LLVM bugs early to fix them upstream.
Note that tests do not yet pass for this LLVM version, but the TinyGo
compiler can be built with the binaries from apt.llvm.org (at the time
of making this commit).
This fixes issue https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/issues/1418. In
short, it appears there was a race condition that was only visible on
GOARCH=386 but not on GOARCH=amd64. Updating to a more recent chromedp
version fixes the issue.
Clean up the go.mod and go.sum which have gotten a bit messy, and add an
extra line to go.sum that keeps reappearing locally for some reason (so
it seems important).
This commit also adds a bit of version independence, in particular for
external commands. It also adds the LLVM version to the `tinygo version`
command, which might help while debugging.
