Replaces the empty stub that relied on 'RV64 registers are always
sign-extended' assumption. Now emits addiw rd, rs, 0 for proper
32-to-64 bit sign extension, matching arm64's sxtw behavior.
Verified on Spacemit X100: tests2 pass (125_atomic_misc has a
pre-existing intermittent segfault, not caused by this change).
Add sign/zero extension for char/short to int casts using
slli+srai (signed) or slli+srli/andi (unsigned) sequences.
Also adds RISCV64 to the gen_cvt_csti fast-path conditional
in tccgen.c:3466, matching arm64/i386/x86_64.
Verified on Spacemit X100: all tests2 pass, no regressions.
Other mature backends (i386, x86_64, arm64) all define PROMOTE_RET,
which forces explicit sign/zero extension of narrow return types at the
caller side. Without it, riscv64 relied on the assumption that RV64
registers are always sign-extended, which may not hold when interfacing
with non-TCC compilers.
Verified on Spacemit X100 (riscv64): self-compilation is self-consistent
across 3 layers. test3 reference mismatch is expected — the test
intentionally invokes UB via type-punned function pointers (csf macro).
tccpe.c:
- fix arm64 unwind codes (to make native set/longjmp() work)
sizeof(RUNTIME_FUNCTION) is 8 on arm64 in the first place
no need to note stack slots if we don't save any registers anyway
arm64-gen.c:
- fix long double reg-move
- fix arm64_hfa() for structs with float arrays
- gfunc_prolog(): setup stackframe eariler (simplifies unwind codes)
- new function gv_addr(RC);
win32/include/setjmp.h:
- provide correct definition for setjmo() (frameoffset = 224)
tccasm.c:
- support ".quad" with symbol & relocation
- support ".size"
- fix ". - symbol" arithmetic
win32/lib/crt1.c and win32/include/stdlib.h:
- do not write to __argc/__argv which reside in msvcrt.dll
(msvcrt.dll on arm64 does not like that, crashes on unload)
tcc.c,libtcc.c:
- new functions tcc_fopen/fclose to avoid different stdio unstances
in tcc.exe & libtcc.dll
tests & github workflow:
- add test-win32.bat to run tests with a tcc compiled by build-tcc.bat
- add msvcrt_start.c for gcc/clang to use the same runtime as tcc
the problem is that newer gcc as well as clang and cl are
linking to newer runtimes (such as UCRT) that have partially
different printf format behavior which makes tcctest fail.
the solution here is to force these compilers to link with
msvcrt.dll just like tcc.
Also, there is no gcc on arm64-win32 currently at all.
Anyway, this approach to running the github CI tests
does not require msys2. But It does rely on gnumake
as well as on some 'sh' shell though which seems to be
installed somewhere (maybe it is the one from git).

This and the previous commits on mob is selected parts

It is not, for example:
- unrelated whitespace changes in many files
- a "pin msvcrt.dll" feature in tccpe.c (why that)
- a native getenv() replacement in tcc.c (why that)
- larger changes to the win32/lib runtime and tccrun.c (not needed)

- lots of rather basic test files in the win32 folder

AttachConsole has been exported from kernel32.dll since Windows XP
but was absent from TCC's import definitions, causing
"undefined symbol 'AttachConsole'" at link time for code that uses it.
When -g is set, cleanup_sections() preserves all sections after relocate,
including the SHT_RELX relocation sections. cleanup_symbols() drops all
STB_LOCAL symbols from the symbol table, which renumbers the remaining
globals. The kept relas still hold r_info indices from the pre-cleanup
numbering, but nothing rewrites them. A later elf_output_obj() call ends
up in sort_syms() / update_relocs(), which allocates old_to_new_syms[]
sized for the post-cleanup (smaller) symtab and then indexes it with the
stale (larger) sym_index values from those rela entries, reading past
the end of the array.
Fix: when do_debug is set, build an old->new index map while re-adding
globals, then walk every retained SHT_RELX section linked to the symtab
and rewrite its r_info entries. Locals (and the undef sym at 0) map to
0 by tcc_mallocz, so relocations against dropped locals now refer to
SHN_UNDEF - the best we can do without preserving the locals themselves.
Reproducible with libtcc_debug.c if the program contains enough static
helpers / string literals for the symtab to actually shrink; observed
under valgrind in jitc (https://github.com/cyanogilvie/jitc) when
compiling re2c-generated state machines with -g.

Code like:
#include <stdatomic.h>
_Atomic const int ai; int aiGet(void){ return atomic_load(&ai); }
has been raising "warning: assignment of read-only location".
This is due to `__typeof__ (*ptr) tmp;` not rvalue-converting the target
type.
This reverts the crap from an unknown committer "OpenCode[AI]", that added an extension to TinyCC,
which is incompatible to the C standard and not available in any other mainstream C compiler:
* Revert "No More ; needed"
This reverts commit 6547ea47d6
* Revert "Add AGENTS.md"
This reverts commit 898f496dc9.
This also reverts a regression fix by "Zuhaitz.dev", which fixed a small part of the OpenCode-AI chaos:
* Revert "tccgen: Fix optional semicolon regression"
This reverts commit 169628a6ab

load() used a raw o() call to emit xor-zero which lost bit 3 of the
register number via REG_VALUE():
o(0xc031 + REG_VALUE(r) * 0x900);
For r >= 8, this emitted the wrong instruction (e.g. xor %ebx,%ebx
for TREG_R11 instead of xor %r11d,%r11d), clobbering the wrong
register.
Use orex() to emit the REX prefix, consistent with all adjacent
branches in load().
When load() in x86_64-gen.c generates a zero constant for a 64-bit
register, it uses:
o(0xc031 + REG_VALUE(r) * 0x900);
REG_VALUE(r) masks to (r & 7), losing bit 3, and no orex() call
emits the REX prefix needed for registers r8-r15. For TREG_R11
(used by gcall_or_jmp for indirect calls), this emits
"xor %ebx,%ebx" (31 db) instead of "xor %r11d,%r11d" (45 31 db),
clobbering the wrong register.
The test compiles an indirect call through a null function pointer
((void(*)(void))0)() via libtcc, then inspects the generated machine
code for the incorrect encoding.
Improve the warning about an integer constant overflow with the used
overflown value and the potentially aimed value.
This helps spotting the 0 to much in 0x80000000000000000.
Track R_RISCV_PCREL_HI20/GOT_HI20 relocations by address and resolve LO12 relocations against the referenced HI, instead of only using the last seen HI.
Also reset/free the per-link relocation map in TCCState.
Moving the u128_t struct may invoke calls to memcpy/memmove when
compiled with tinycc, which would depend on libc.
For example, some configure scripts get confused if they fail to build
test programs involving long doubles. I'm not sure if this is the root
cause, though.
This reverts commit 41fa74fc84.
Reasons for the revert:
1. The commit message is lacking and the use case is not obvious.
At the very least a concrete example of use case should be given
(likely cross-building tcc on platform X for running on platform Y),
followed by an issue description in such use case, and fix descr.
(e.g. "On platform X, when running ./configure ... && make ..., the
build fails because whatever. this commit does Y and fixes it").
2. assign_opt is used incorrectly: 1st arg must be --OPTNAME=VALUE
but it's not. The only thing it does is unconditional host_cc=gcc
if --cross-prefix=... is used - no need for "assign_opt" at all.
3. cross-building tcc currently has several triggers: build/target
cpu differ, or build/target OS differ, or --cross-prefix=... is
used, but that commit only covers the --cross-prefix=... case.
It's possible that it's intentional to only cover one case, but
if so then it's not explained why.
4. The var name host_cc is likely incorrect and probably meant to be
"native_cc", judging by the assigned value "gcc".
5. "gcc" is used unconditionally in such case, without any way to use
a different native compiler (assuming that's indeed the goal).
A better approach is likely supporting --native-cc=... option which
defaults to $cc (which already defaults to "gcc") _before_
$cross_prefix is added in-front.
workflow:
- revert 'pinact for security' for readability
from 831c3fa184
tccpp.c:
- remove code that allows tcc to parse numbers incorrectly (*)
from 829c848520
tccgen.c:
- Revert "Relaxed the 'incompatible pointer type' warning a bit" (*)
from d9ec17d334.
tccrun.c:
- remove support for -nostdlib -run
for simplicity, we require "main" with tcc -run always
tccpp.c:
- Revert "Free all preprocessor memmory in case of error."
from c96f0cad61
Remove TinyAlloc->limit instead. Thus it can do also bigger
allocs. Big TokenStrings (like 200kb+ when compiling tcc)
may come from inline functions or from large initializers.
Makefile/configure:
- use --config-pie for configuring tcc output only
- use -fPIC with clang-x86_64 to avoid 32-bit relocs
libtcc.c:
- fix "tcc file.c -run" i.e. -run as last argument
i386-gen.c:
- PIC refactor
(*) sorry, but code in tcc should have a minimum of generic relevance
I tried several gdb/lldb options to debug libtcc generated code.
But gdb/lldb complained that they could not load symbols or
that module does not exist. There was also another problem. The
code itself was in memory (string) and gdb/lldb do not have
functions to acces it.
So I came up with a new api for debugging libtcc code.
First you enable debugging with: tcc_set_options(s, "-g")
Then compile the code with: tcc_compile_string_file(s, program, "<file>.c")
Then call tcc_relocate().
And finaly write the object file to disk: elf_output_obj(s, "<file>.o")
Now you can start the debugger and put an breakpoint after the
elf_output_obj() code. Then use gdb command add-symbol-file <file>.o
and from there on you can set breakpoints in the libtcc generated code.
You can also step/print variables/...
I could not find a simular function in lldb yet.
When debugging is done you remove the tcc_set_options(s, "-g").
All other code can remain because tcc_compile_string_file and
elf_output_obj do not output any file any more is debug is not set.
See also tests/libtcc_debug.c
Some targets (netbsd) require that code is
compiled with -fPIE.
i386-gen.c:
Lot of changes to load/store code
i386-link.c:
Set PCRELATIVE_DLLPLT depending on configuration
tccelf.c:
Change some relocations and add get_pc_thunk.o
Makefile lib/Makefile lib/get_pc_thunk.S:
Add new file get_pc_thunk.o
According to AAPCS64, when an argument requires 16-byte alignment
and is passed on the stack, the stack address must be rounded up
to the next 16-byte boundary.
TCC previously failed to perform this alignment check in gen_va_arg,
leading to data corruption when a 16-byte aligned argument followed
an 8-byte argument on the stack.
Note: This issue is most prominent on Mach-O/Apple Silicon where
variadic arguments are passed entirely on the stack. Testing shows
this fix resolves the failure on macOS while remaining compatible
with Linux/ARM64 (e.g., Raspberry Pi).
Modified gen_va_arg to perform a round-up (addr + 15) & ~15 when
align == 16.
