Artistic-1.0 AND BSD-3-Clause
* Sat Apr 05 2025 Jaime Marquínez Ferrándiz <jaime.marquinez.ferrandiz@fastmail.net>
- Update to 1.40.1:
* Big news
- Frontend and druntime bumped to version 2.110.0 final. (#4854, #4868)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages bumped to v19.1.7. (#4822)
- New prebuilt package for Alpine Linux x86_64 with musl libc. It's
currently generated on Alpine v3.21, using its default LLVM 19. Most
bundled executables are fully static and can be run on ~all distros.
(#4826, #4862)
- Revived dynamic-compile (JIT) functionality (formerly unsupported since
LLVM 12), supporting LLVM 18+ now. (#4774)
- ldc2.conf: %%ldcversion%% placeholder added, allowing to refer to
version-specific directories.
- Windows: The prebuilt packages now bundle an official libcurl build (from
https://curl.se/windows/), currently v8.12.1. The static library
(curl_a.lib) isn't available anymore. When bundling this libcurl.dll with
your binaries, make sure to include curl-ca-bundle.crt too (in the same
directory as the DLL), to prevent 'SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key
was not OK' exceptions. (#4855, #4875)
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 15 - 19.
- Initial compiler and runtime support for ppc64 and ppc64le systems that
use IEEE 754R 128-bit floating-point as the default 128-bit
floating-point format. (#4833, #4840)
- Initial support for Windows on ARM64. The prebuilt Windows multilib
package/installer bundles prebuilt arm64 druntime and Phobos;
cross-compiling works out of the box via -mtriple=aarch64-windows-msvc,
but you currently need to set up a suited MSVC arm64 build environment
before yourself (e.g., by running vsdevcmd.bat -arch=arm64
- host_arch=x64). (#4835, #4846)
* Bug fixes
- Prebuilt macOS universal package: Fix automatic bundled libLTO.dylib
usage when linking with LTO. (#4857)
- Building multi-file D applications with control-flow protection will no
longer cause LDC to throw an internal compiler error. (#4828)
* Sun Dec 29 2024 Matthias Eliasson <elimat@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.40.0:
* Big news
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version ~2.110.0.
(#4707, #4737, #4749, #4768, #4784, #4792, #4798)
- Support for LLVM 19. The prebuilt packages use v19.1.3 (incl. macOS arm64).
(#4712, #4735, #4763, #4772)
- Objective-C: The compiler now properly supports Objective-C classes and protocols,
as well as swift stub classes (via the @swift UDA). (#4777)
- Android: NDK for prebuilt package bumped from r26d to r27c. (#4711, #4772)
- ldc2.conf: %%ldcconfigpath%% placeholder added - specifies the directory where
current configuration file is located. (#4717)
- Add support for building against a system copy of zlib through
- DPHOBOS_SYSTEM_ZLIB=ON. (#4742)
- Emscripten: The compiler now mimicks a musl Linux platform wrt.
extra predefined versions (linux, Posix, CRuntime_Musl, CppRuntime_LLVM). (#4750)
* Bug fixes
- Fix potentially corrupt IR layouts for bit fields. (#4646, #4708)
- Fix potentially corrupt IR layouts for explicitly under-aligned aggregates,
a regression introduced in LDC v1.31. (#4734, #4736)
- ELF: Emit (most) instantiated symbols in COMDATs for proper link-time culling. (#3589, #4748)
- Support scalar right-hand-sides when bit-shifting vectors. (#3606, #4781)
- Fix LLVM data layout for the SPIR-V target used in D-Compute on LLVM 19+. (#4772)
* Tue Sep 03 2024 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.39.0:
- Drop upstream patch merge in 1.34.0:
* riscv64-default-target.patch
* Wed Dec 06 2023 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
- riscv64-default-target.patch: Default to rv64gc for hosted riscv64
target
- Enable build on riscv64
* Fri Jul 07 2023 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.32.2:
* Big news
- New command-line option --fwarn-stack-size=<threshold> with
LLVM 13+. (#4378)
- New command-line option --fsplit-stack for incremental stack
allocations, see https://llvm.org/docs/SegmentedStacks.html. (#4379)
- New UDA ldc.attributes.noSplitStack disables it on a per-function
basis. (#4382)
- New command-line option --indent for the timetrace2txt tool.
(#4391)
* Bug fixes
- Fix potentially huge compile slowdowns with -g and LLVM 15+.
(#4354, #4393)
- Treat all LLVM warnings as regular warnings (e.g., errors
with -w). Requires LLVM 13+. (#4384)
- Skipped 1.32.1:
* Big news
- The prebuilt Linux packages are now generated on a Ubuntu 20.04
box, so the min required glibc version has been raised from
2.26 to 2.31. (#4367)
* Bug fixes
- Fix empty ldc.gccbuiltins_* modules with LLVM 15+.
(#4347, #4350)
- Fix v1.31 regression wrt. potentially wrong constant pointer
offsets. (#4362, #4365)
- Windows: Fix v1.32 regression wrt. leaking Throwable.info
backtraces. (#4369)
- Fix C assert calls for newlib targets. (#4351)
* Fri Jul 07 2023 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Do not use %{_includedir}/d to be able to install/use multiple
D compilers in parallel - boo#1212913
* Fri Apr 21 2023 Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
- Add specific conflict from runtime-devel to the old/previous
libdruntime-ldc99. which contained an unversioned file.
* Thu Apr 20 2023 Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
- Only move bash-completion from /etc to /usr/share if this was not
properly installed. There was an error that
bash-completion-devel did not actually contain the .cmake file
which in turn resulted in this package mis-installing despite the
correct build deps.
* Tue Apr 11 2023 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Move %{_libdir}/ldc_rt.dso.o to runtime-devel package
* Thu Apr 06 2023 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Use llvm15 when available (Tumbleweed + Leap 15.5)
- Update to 1.32.0:
* Big news
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.102.2. (#4323, #4341) (new)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages bumped to v15.0.7. (#4311)
- Linker-level dead code elimination is enabled by default for Apple,
wasm and all ELF targets too now. (#4320)
- Vector comparisons (==, !=, <, <=, >, >=) now yield a vector mask.
Identity comparisons (is, !is) still yield a scalar bool. (3a59ee8)
- New timetrace2txt tool for easier inspection of --ftime-trace
output. (#4335) (new)
- --ftime-trace now also traces CTFE execution: the start
expression of CTFE and function calls during CTFE. (#4339) (new)
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 9.0 - 15.0.
- Now supports -mabi for RISC-V targets. (#4322)
* Bug fixes
- GC closures including variables with alignment > 16 bytes are
now properly aligned. (ef8ba48)
- Fix regression with LLVM 13+: some errors in inline assembly
don't stop compilation. (#4293, #4331)
- Changelog from skipped 1.31.0:
* Big news
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.101.2. (#4141, #4279)
- Bit fields support. (#4015)
- macOS on Apple M1: linking with -g is working again without
unaligned pointer warnings/errors. This fixes file:line debug
information in exception backtraces (requiring atos, a macOS
development tool installed with Xcode), without the need to set
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=11 and using a modified LLVM. (#4291)
- Preliminary support for LLVM 15, incl. adding support for the
'new' pass manager (-passmanager) and opaque IR pointers
(-opaque-pointers). (way too many PRs to list!)
- New command-line option -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks,
mimicking the same option of GCC and Clang. (#4297)
- New UDA ldc.attributes.callingConvention("..."), which
overrides the default calling convention. For expert use only! (#4299)
- New command-line option -fno-discard-value-names to keep
value names in LLVM IR. (#4012)
- dcompute: Support for OpenCL image I/O. (#3835)
* Platform support
- Initial ABI support for 64-bit RISC-V. (#4007)
* Bug fixes
- dcompute: Fix v1.29 regression when trying to use
intrinsics. (#4266, #4267)
- Fix 64-bit symbol offsets. (#4264, #4283)
- Add missing 32-bit LTO versions of druntime & Phobos to
Linux multilib package. (#4234, #4235)
- Fix compiler crash. (#4130, #4135)
* Internals
- The former druntime and dmd-testsuite git submodules are now
part of the LDC repo directly, leaving Phobos as single
remaining submodule. We are now using a subset of the DMD
repo (which includes druntime since v2.101), rewritten via
git filter-repo and exposed as dmd-rewrite-* branches/tags
in the LDC repo, to merge newer frontend+druntime+tests from
upstream DMD. The tests/d2/dmd-testsuite dir was moved to
tests/dmd. (#4274, #4276)
- Changelog from skipped 1.30.0:
* Big news
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.100.1.
(#3970, #4008, #4009) (new)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages bumped to v14.0.3.
(#3952, #3979)
- All LLVM targets are enabled now (=> more targets for
cross-compilation).
- For the Mac package, the minimum supported macOS version
has been raised to v10.12.
- The minimum D version for bootstrapping has been raised to
v2.079 (for GDC: v9.4), in line with DMD. (#3956)
- The minimum LLVM version has been raised to v9.0. (#3960)
- New LeakSanitizer support via -fsanitize=leak (not (yet?)
supported on Windows). (#4005) (new)
- New prebuilt universal macOS package, runnable on both
x86_64 and arm64, and enabling x86_64/arm64 macOS/iOS
cross-compilation targets out of the box (-mtriple={x86_64,arm64}-apple-{macos,ios}).
The x86_64 package doesn't bundle any arm64 libs anymore;
the arm64 package newly bundles iOS libs (arm64). (#3958)
- Avoid an external x86_64-only dub, use the bundled universal
dub executable instead.
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 9.0 - 14.0.
* Bug fixes
- Enable output of variable names in ASan and MSan error
reporting. (#4004) (new)
- Report unexpected type repaints as fatal ICEs instead of
crashing. (#3990, #3991) (new)
* Internals
- Main CI was moved from Azure Pipelines to GitHub Actions.
Any fork on GitHub can trivially reuse the fully automated
prebuilt packages generation & upload to a GitHub release. (#3978)
* Fri Nov 25 2022 Max Lin <mlin@suse.com>
- Force to use llvm14 in Leap 15.5 since the default llvm version is
now llvm15
* Mon Nov 21 2022 Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
- Do not have the main package recommend the bash-completion
sub-package, but rather have the subpackage supplement the
combination of ldc and bash-completion.
* Fri Oct 07 2022 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Build against llvm14 for Tumbleweed since llvm15 is not
supported yet
* Tue May 10 2022 Fabian Vogt <fvogt@suse.com>
- Use gcc-d (gdc) for bootstrapping as recommended by upstream.
Only gdc is needed for bootstrapping instead of various older ldc
versions, which also allows to use newer versions of LLVM
(boo#1199054). On top of that, this allows ldc to use the shared
runtime built with itself.
- Drop use of binutils-gold, 1.29.0 does not use it by default anymore
- Mention %so_ver in %files
* Tue Apr 12 2022 Chris Josten <chris+suse@netsoj.nl>
- Update to 1.29.0:
* Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.099.1
* Support for LLVM 13 and LLVM 14
* New @hidden UDA (as counterpart of export).
* Support 'raw mangles' via leading \1 in pragma(mangle) strings,
e.g., to access magic linker symbols on Mac.
* New @noSanitize UDA to selectively disable sanitizer
instrumentation of functions.
* WebAssembly: Larger default stack size (1 MB) and protection
against stack overflow overwriting global memory.
* LDC doesn't default to the ld.gold linker anymore. The
combination of LLVM 13+ and older gold linkers can apparently
cause problems. We recommend using LLD, e.g., via -linker=lld
or by setting your default /usr/bin/ld symlink; it's
significantly faster too.
* -linkonce-templates is less aggressive by default now and
IMHO production-ready.
* When linking manually (not via LDC) against shared druntime, it
is now required to link the bundled lib/ldc_rt.dso.o[bj] object
file into each binary. It replaces the previously
Windows-specific dso_windows.obj.
* Basic compiler support for Newlib targets, i.e., triples
like arm-none-newlibeabi.
* dcompute: Add support for OpenCL image I/O.
* Revamped and improved -ftime-trace implementation for compiler
profiling/tracing, now excluding LLVM-internal traces, adding
frontend memory tracing, source file location infos etc
* Implement core.atomic.pause() for some architectures.
* Bug fixes:
* Linux: Make LTO work with LLD.
* Capture NRVO variable by ref for stack closures.
* -ftime-trace: JSON-escape filenames.
* RISC-V: Use 128-bit quadruple real.
* Linux x86/x64: Fix TLS range with static druntime and bfd/lld
linkers.
* Support rdtscp in DMD-style inline assembly.
* Fix dynamic casts across binary boundaries (DLLs etc.).
* Don't silently ignore invalid external tool specifications.
* LLVM v11.1: Add missing PGO ldc-profdata tool.
* ICE for 64-bit targets with 32-bit pointer size.
* Breaking ABI changes:
* extern(D): formal parameters of non-variadic functions aren't
reversed anymore, in line with the spec.
* Mon May 17 2021 Ferdinand Thiessen <rpm@fthiessen.de>
- Update to 1.26.0:
* Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.096.1+
incl. new ldmd2 command-line option -gdwarf=<version>
* Supports LLVM 6.0 - 12.0
* LDC invocations can now be nicely profiled via --ftime-trace.
* Struct TypeInfos are emitted into referencing object files only,
and special TypeInfo member functions into the owning object
file only.
* Bug fixes:
* TypeInfo for interface gives invalid string for name.
* dcompute: Don’t reject CUDA versions 7.x - 8.0.0.
* Don’t enforce the frame pointer for functions with GCC-style
inline asm.
* Fix some cases of insufficient alignment for arguments and
parameters.
* Fix a few issues with LLVM 12.
* Add source location information for TypeInfo diagnostics
with -betterC.
* Keep init symbols of built-in TypeInfo classes mutable just
like any other TypeInfo, so that e.g. synchronized() can be
used on the implicit monitor.
* Predefine version FreeStanding when targeting bare-metal.
* druntime: Define rt.aaA.AA as naked pointer, no struct wrapper
* Misc. fixes and improvements for the CMake scripts,
incl. new defaults for LDC_INSTALL_{LTOPLUGIN,LLVM_RUNTIME_LIBS}
* -cleanup-obj: Put object files into unique temporary directory
by default.
* druntime: Add missing core.atomic.atomicFetch{Add,Sub}.
* Fix regression wrt. non-deleted temporary -run executable.
* Breaking ABI changes:
* extern(D): Pass non-PODs by ref to temporary.
* -linkonce-templates comes with a new experimental template
emission scheme and is now suited for projects consisting of
multiple object files too.
- 1.13+ is now required for 1.26+ on 32bit
* Mon Dec 28 2020 Matthias Eliasson <elimat@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.24.0:
Big news
* Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.094.1+, incl. new command-line options -cov=ctfe, -vtemplates=list-instances and -HC=<silent|verbose> . (#3560, #3582, #3588, #3593)
* Support for LLVM 11. The prebuilt packages use v11.0.0; x86 packages newly include the LLVM backend for AMD GPUs. (#3546, #3586)
* Experimental support for macOS on 64-bit ARM, thanks Guillaume! All druntime/Phobos unit tests pass. The macOS package includes prebuilt druntime/Phobos; adapt the SDK path in etc/ldc2.conf and then use -mtriple=arm64-apple-macos to cross-compile. If you know how to work around the countless linker warnings, please let us know. (dlang/druntime#3226, #3583)
Platform support
* Supports LLVM 6.0 - 11.0.
Bug fixes
* Fix potentially wrong context pointers when calling delegate literals. (#3553, #3554)
* Fix alignment issue when casting vector rvalue to static array. (c8889a9)
* Make sure lambdas in pragma(inline, true) functions are emitted into each referencing compilation unit. (#3570)
* Fix -Xcc=-Wl,... by dropping support for comma-separated list of cc options. (c61b135)
* Fix ThreadSanitizer support by not detaching main thread upon program termination. (#3572)
* Traverse full chain of nested aggregates when resolving a nested variable. (#3556, #3558)
Internals
* CI: Linux AArch64 is now also tested by a Travis job, because Shippable has sadly become unreliable. (#3469)
* Building LDC with an LDC host compiler might be somewhat faster now (requires -DLDC_LINK_MANUALLY=OFF in the CMake command-line on non-Windows hosts). (#3575)
Known issues
* When building LDC, old LDC 0.17.*/ltsmaster host compilers miscompile LDC ≥ 1.21, leading to potential segfaults of the built LDC. Ltsmaster can still be used to bootstrap a first compiler and then let that compiler compile itself. (#3354)
* Buggy older ld.bfd linker versions may wrongly strip out required symbols, e.g., ModuleInfos (so that e.g. no module ctors/dtors are run). LDC defaults to ld.gold on Linux.
* LDC does not zero the padding area of a real variable. This may lead to wrong results if the padding area is also considered. See #770. Does not apply to real members inside structs etc.
* Wed Nov 25 2020 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Fix aarch64 build: Drop '-mbranch-protection=standard' option
as llvm7 does not support it
* Thu Oct 01 2020 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.23.0:
Bug news
* Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.093.1+,
incl. new command-line option -vtemplates. (#3476, #3538, #3541)
* New -platformlib CLI option to override the default linked-with
platform libraries, e.g., when targeting bare-metal. (#3374, #3475)
Platform support
* Supports LLVM 6.0 - 10.0.
Bug fixes
* Fix regression since v1.22: shared druntime potentially overriding
libstdc++ symbols and breaking exceptions in C++ libraries. (#3530, #3537)
* Fix naked DMD-style asm emission for non-Mac x86 Darwin targets
(e.g., iOS simulators). (#3478)
* -betterC: Don't use unsupported EH for handling clean-ups. (#3479, #3482)
* dcompute: Fix wrong address space loads and stores. Thx Rob! (#3428)
* Fix ICE wrt. missing IR declarations for some forward-declared
functions. (#3496, #3503)
* Fix ICE wrt. inline IR and empty parameter types tuple. (#3509)
* Fix PGO issues. (#3375, #3511, #3512, #3524)
* Improve support for LLVM's ThreadSanitizer. (#3522)
* Fix linker cmdline length limitation via response files. (#3535, #3536)
Internals
* Compiler performance wrt. string literals emission has been improved.
Thx @looked-at-me! (#3490, #3492)
* Link libstdc++ statically for libldc-jit.so of prebuilt Linux packages,
to increase portability. (#3473, #3474)
* Set up Visual D when using the Visual Studio CMake generator, making
LDC compiler development on Windows a smooth out-of-the-box experience. (#3494)
Known issues
* When building LDC, old LDC 0.17.*/ltsmaster host compilers miscompile
LDC ≥ 1.21, leading to potential segfaults of the built LDC. Ltsmaster
can still be used to bootstrap a first compiler and then let that compiler
compile itself. (#3354)
* Buggy older ld.bfd linker versions may wrongly strip out required symbols,
e.g., ModuleInfos (so that e.g. no module ctors/dtors are run).
LDC defaults to ld.gold on Linux.
* LDC does not zero the padding area of a real variable. This may
lead to wrong results if the padding area is also considered.
See #770. Does not apply to real members inside structs etc.
* Sun Aug 09 2020 Matthias Eliasson <elimat@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.22.0:
Big news
* Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.092.1+.
(#3413, #3416, #3429, #3434, #3452, #3467) (new)
* AArch64: All known ABI issues have been fixed. C(++) interop should now be
on par with x86_64, and variadics usable with core.{vararg,stdc.stdarg}.
(#3421)
* Windows hosts: DMD's Visual C++ toolchain detection has been adopted. As
that's orders of magnitude faster than the previous method involving the MS
batch file, auto-detection has been enabled by default, so if you have a
non-ancient Visual C++ installation, it will now be used automatically for
linking. The environment setup has been reduced to the bare minimum
(LIB and PATH). (#3415)
* FreeBSD x64: CI with CirrusCI is now fully green and includes automated
prebuilt package generation. The package depends on the llvm ports package
and should currently work on FreeBSD 11-13. (#3453, #3464) (new)
* Link-time overridable @weak functions are now emulated for Windows targets
and work properly for ELF platforms. For ELF, LDC doesn't emit any COMDATs
anymore. (#3424)
* New ldc.gccbuiltins_{amdgcn,nvvm} for AMD GCN and NVIDIA PTX targets.
(#3411)
* druntime: Significant speed-up for core.math.ldexp. (#3440, #3446)
Platform support
* Supports LLVM 3.9 - 10.0.
Bug fixes
* Cross-module inlining (incl. pragma(inline, true)): Enable emission into
multiple object files. This may have a significant impact on performance
(incl. druntime/Phobos) when not using LTO. (#3126, #3442)
* Android: Fix TLS initialization regression (introduced in v1.21) and
potential alignment issues. Unfortunately, the ld.bfd linker is required
for our custom TLS emulation scheme, unless you're willing to use a custom
linker script. So -linker=bfd is the new default for Android targets.
(#3462) (new)
* Casting (static and dynamic) arrays to vectors now loads the data instead
of splatting the first element. (#3418, #3419)
* Fix return statements potentially accessing memory from destructed
temporaries. (#3426)
* Add proper support for -checkaction=halt. (#3430, #3431)
* druntime: Include core.stdcpp.* modules. (#3103, #3158)
* GCC-style asm: Add support for indirect input operands ("m"). (#3438)
* FreeBSD: Fix backtraces for optimized code by switching to external
libexecinfo. (#3108, #3453)
* FreeBSD: Fix C math related issues (incl. CTFE math issues) by bringing
core.stdc.{math,tgmath} up to speed. (dlang/druntime#3119)
* Fix ICE for captured parameters not passed on the LLVM level. (#3441)
* Convenience fixes for RISC-V and other exotic targets. (#3457, #3460) (new)
Internals
* When printing compile-time reals to hex strings (mangling, .di headers),
LDC now uses LLVM instead of the host C runtime, for proper and consistent
results. (#3410)
* One limitation for exotic hosts wrt. C long double precision has been
lifted. (#3414)
* For AVR targets, the compiler now predefines AVR and emits all TLS globals
as regular __gshared ones. (#3420)
* WebAssembly: New memory grow/size intrinsics. (ldc-developers/druntime#187)
(new)
* New -fno-plt option to avoid PLT external calls. (#3443)
* iOS/arm64 CI, running the debug druntime & Phobos unittests on an iPhone
6S. Thx Jacob for this tedious work! (#3379, #3450)
Known issues
* When building LDC, old LDC 0.17.*/ltsmaster host compilers miscompile LDC ≥

switches -verror-style and -HC, -HCd, -HCf. (#3333, #3399)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages upgraded to v10.0.0. Android NDK version
bumped to r21. (#3307, #3387, #3398)
- Initial support for GCC/GDC-style inline assembly syntax, besides
DMD-style inline asm and LDC-specific __asm, enabling to write inline
asm that is portable across GDC/LDC and corresponds to the GCC syntax
in C. See ldc-developers/druntime#171 for examples wrt. how to
transition from __asm to similar GCC-style asm. (#3304)
- Inline assembly diagnostics have been extended by the D source
location. (#3339)
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 3.9 - 10.0.
* Bug fixes
- Fixed tail calls in thunks, affecting AArch64 (the debug libraries now work)
and possibly other architectures. (#3329, #3332)
- Windows: Do not emit any column infos for CodeView by default
(like clang) & add -gcolumn-info. (#3102, #3388)
- Windows: Do not leak MSVC-environment-setup into -run child processes.
A new LDC_VSDIR_FORCE environment variable can be used to enforce MSVC
toolchain setup. (#3340, #3341)
- Windows: Fix memory leak when throwing exceptions in threads.
(#3369, ldc-developers/druntime#181)
- Try to use memcmp for (in)equality of non-mutable static arrays and
mutable slices. (#3400, #3401)
- ldc.gccbuiltins_*: Lift 256-bit vector limit, adding 174 AVX512
builtins for x86; 512-bit vector aliases have been added to core.simd.
(#3405, #3406)
* Internals
- core.bitop.{bts,btr,btc} are now CTFE-able. (ldc-developers/druntime#182)

(#3382)
- WebAssembly: Switch from legacy linked-list ModuleInfo registry to
__minfo section. (#3348)
- Windows: Bundled libcurl upgraded to v7.69.1, incl. the option to link
it statically. (#3378)
- Windows: Switch to wide wmain C entry point in druntime. (#3351)
- druntime unittests are now compiled with -checkaction=context.
* Known issues
- NEW: When building LDC, old LDC 0.17.*/ltsmaster host compilers
miscompile LDC ≥ 1.21, leading to potential segfaults of the built LDC.
Ltsmaster can still be used to bootstrap a first compiler and then let
that compiler compile itself. (#3354)
- Buggy older ld.bfd linker versions may wrongly strip out required
symbols, e.g., ModuleInfos (so that e.g. no module ctors/dtors are run).
LDC defaults to ld.gold on Linux.
- LDC does not zero the padding area of a real variable. This may lead to
wrong results if the padding area is also considered. See #770. Does
not apply to real members inside structs etc.
* Tue Jul 09 2019 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Switch to llvm7 for Tumbleweed as llvm8 is not able to build
bootstrap version 0.17.6
See https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/3109
- Disable -flto=4 option as llvm does not recognize this option
* Tue Jul 09 2019 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>

* Sat Apr 20 2019 Matthias Eliasson <elimat@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.15.0
* Big news
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.085.1, incl. new
command-line options -preview, -revert, -checkaction=context,
- verrors-context and -extern-std. (#3003, #3039, #3053) (new)
+ The Objective-C improvements from DMD 2.085 are not implemented
(#3007)
- Support for LLVM 8.0. The prebuilt packages have been upgraded to
LLVM 8.0.0 and include the Khronos SPIRV-LLVM-Translator, so that
dcompute can now emit OpenCL too. (#3005)
- Compiler memory requirements can now be reduced via the new -lowmem
switch, which enables the garbage collector for the front-end and
sacrifices compile times for less required memory. In some cases, the
overall max process memory can be reduced by more than 60%; see #2916
(comment) for some numbers. (#2916)
+ Note for package maintainers: this feature requires a recent D host
compiler (most notably, it doesn't work with ltsmaster), ideally
LDC 1.15 itself due to important GC memory overhead improvements in
2.085 druntime.
- Support for generic @llvmAttr("name") parameter UDAs, incl. new
@restrict with C-like semantics. (#3043) (new)
- macOS: 32-bit support was dropped in the sense of not being CI-tested
anymore and the prebuilt macOS package now containing x86_64 libraries
only. MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET for the prebuilt package has been raised
from 10.8 to 10.9.
- Prebuilt packages don't depend on libtinfo and libedit anymore.
(#1827, #3019)
- x86: SSSE3 isn't required for the prebuilt packages and generated
optimized binaries anymore. (#3045) (new)
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 3.9 - 8.0.
* Bug fixes
- Implicit cross-module-inlining of functions annotated with
pragma(inline, true) without explicit -enable-cross-module-inlining has
been restored. (#2552, #3014)
- Propagate well-known length of newly allocated dynamic arrays for
better optimizability. (#3041, #3042) (new)
- JIT: Support implicit __chkstk calls for Windows targets, e.g., for
large stack allocations. (#3051) (new)
- Update so_version to 85
* Fri Jan 25 2019 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Requires binutils.gold as ldc uses ld.gold by default since version 1.13.0
* Mon Jan 21 2019 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Enable bootstrap again for all flavours, otherwise ldc will require old
.so file instead of new one
- Use ldc 1.12.0 as intermediate build on 32-bit, due to upstream bug:
* https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/2947
* Thu Jan 10 2019 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Remove wrong requires to 'ldc-utils' as there is no such package
* Tue Dec 18 2018 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>

- Add bash-completion sub-package
* Tue Dec 18 2018 Guillaume GARDET <guillaume.gardet@opensuse.org>
- Update to 1.13.0:
* Big news
- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.083.1.
(#2878, #2893, #2920, #2933) (new)
- The Windows packages are now fully self-sufficient, i.e., a
Visual Studio/C++ Build Tools installation isn't required anymore,
as we now ship with MinGW-w64-based libraries, similar to DMD. Check out
the included README.txt for all relevant details.
(dlang/installer#346, #2886, Wiki: Cross-compiling with LDC)
- Debug info improvements:
- For GDB: printing global and imported symbols, non-member
and member function calls. (#2826)
- For Visual Studio and mago: names, by-value params, nested
variables. (#2895, #2908, #2909, #2912)
- Associative arrays now showing up properly (at least with mago),
not as opaque void* anymore. (#2869)
- -gc now translates D names to C++ ones, e.g., to use the regular
Visual Studio debugger (bypassing mago) and as preparation for VS Code
debugging with Microsoft's C/C++ plug-in (screenshots). Thanks to
Oleksandr for this contribution and the AA fix! (#2869)
- New command-line option -fvisibility=hidden to hide functions/globals
not marked as export (for non-Windows targets), primarily to reduce the
size of shared libraries. Thanks to Andrey for stepping up! (#2894, #2923)
- Dropped support for LLVM 3.7 and 3.8. (#2872)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages upgraded to v7.0.1. (new)
- Linux: now defaulting to ld.gold linker in general, not just with
- flto=thin, as buggy older ld.bfd versions may wrongly strip out required
symbols (change with -linker). (#2870)
- Improved support for Android/x86[_64], musl libc and FreeBSD/AArch64.
(#2917, ldc-developers/druntime#146) (new)
- LDC-specific druntime: ldc.simd.inlineIR moved/renamed to ldc.llvmasm.__ir
(with deprecated legacy alias). (#2931) (new)
- New CMake option COMPILE_D_MODULES_SEPARATELY builds D files in the DDMD
frontend separately to reduce the time required to build LDC with many
CPU cores and/or for iterative development. (#2914)
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 3.9 - 7.0.
- Alpine linux/x64: built against Musl libc to support Docker images based on
the Alpine distro, requires the llvm5-libs, musl-dev, binutils-gold and gcc
packages to build and link D apps and the tzdata and curl-dev packages for
certain stdlib modules.
* Bug fixes
- 32-bit Android/ARM regression introduced in v1.12. (#2892)
- Non-Windows x86_64 ABI fixes wrt. what's passed in registers,
relevant for C[++] interop. (#2864)

- Frontend, druntime and Phobos are at version 2.082.1.
(#2818, #2837, #2858, #2873) (new)
Significant performance improvements for some transcendental
std.math functions in single and double precision, at least
for x86. (dlang/phobos#6272 (comment))
- Support for LLVM 7, which is used for the prebuilt packages.
Due to an LLVM 7.0.0 regression, the prebuilt x86[_64] LDC
binaries require a CPU with SSSE3, and so will your optimized
binaries (unless compiling with -mattr=-ssse3). (#2850)
- JIT compilation: new ldc.dynamic_compile.bind function with
interface similar to C++ std::bind, allowing to generate
efficient specialized versions of functions (much like
Easy::jit for C++). (#2726)
- LTO now working for Win64 too; the prebuilt package includes
the required external LLD linker and the optional LTO default
libs. Enable as usual with -flto=<thin|full>
[-defaultlib=druntime-ldc-lto,phobos2-ldc-lto]. (#2774)
- Config file: new lib-dirs array for directories to be searched
for libraries, incl. LLVM compiler-rt libraries. (#2790)
* Platform support
- Supports LLVM 3.7 - 7.0.
- Windows: Supports Visual Studio/C++ Build Tools 2015 and 2017.
- Alpine linux/x64: built against Musl libc to support Docker
images based on the Alpine distro, requires the llvm5-libs,
musl-dev, and gcc packages to build and link D apps and the
tzdata and libcurl packages for certain stdlib modules.
- Android/ARM: This release slightly changes the way emulated TLS
is interfaced, but is missing a patch for 32-bit ARM. See the
wiki for instructions on patching that file manually before
cross-compiling the runtime libraries for 32-bit Android/ARM.
* Bug fixes
- Fix IR-based PGO on Windows (requires our LLVM fork). (#2539)
- Fix C++ class construction with D new on Posix. (#2801)

- betterC and/or a minimal (d)runtime. (#2765)
- LLVM for prebuilt packages upgraded to v6.0.1.
The x86_64 packages feature some more LLVM targets for
cross-compilation (experiments): MIPS, MSP430, RISC-V
and WebAssembly. (#2760)
- Rudimentary support for compiling & linking directly to
WebAssembly. See the dedicated Wiki page for how to get
started. (#2766, #2779, #2785)
- AArch64 (64-bit ARM) now mostly working on Linux/glibc
and Android. Current ltsmaster is able to bootstrap v1.11,
which can also bootstrap itself; most tests pass.
(Preliminary) CI has been set up. (#2802, #2817, #2813) (new)
- LDC on Windows now uses 80-bit compile-time reals. This allows
for seamless cross-compilation to other x86(_64) targets,
e.g., without real.min underflowing to 0 and real.max
overflowing to infinity. (#2752)
- New @naked UDA in ldc.attributes & enhanced functionality
for @llvmAttr("<name>"). (#2773)
* Platform support:
- Supports LLVM 3.7 - 6.0.
- Windows: Supports Visual Studio/C++ Build Tools 2015 and 2017.

* Bug fixes:
- extern(C++) on Posix: Pass non-PODs indirectly by value.
(#2728)
- extern(C++) on Windows/MSVC: Methods return all structs via
hidden sret pointer. (#2720, #1935)
- Make GC2Stack IR optimization pass work as intended. (#2750)
- Work around inline assembly regression with LLVM 6 on Win32.
The prebuilt Win32 package is now using LLVM 6.0.1 too. (#2629, #2770)
- Fix overzealous check for multiple main() functions. (#2778) (new)
- Fix corrupt prefix in integrated LLD's console output. (#2781) (new)
- No context ptr for nested non-extern(D) functions. (#2808, #2809) (new)
* Known issues:
- LDC does not zero the padding area of a real variable. This may
lead to wrong results if the padding area is also considered.
See #770. Does not apply to real members inside structs etc.
- Update bootstrap version to 0.17.6:
* Added support for LLVM 6.0 and 7.0. (#2600, #2825)
