Private Function

std.zig.AstGen.fetchRemoveRefEntries

fn fetchRemoveRefEntries(astgen: *AstGen, param_insts: []const Zir.Inst.Index) ![]Zir.Inst.Index

Given a list of instructions, returns a list of all instructions which are a ref of one of the originals, from astgen.ref_table, non-recursively. The entries are removed from astgen.ref_table, and the returned slice can then be treated as its own body, to append ref instructions to a body other than the one they would normally exist in.

This is used when lowering functions. Very rarely, the callconv expression, align expression, etc may reference function parameters via &param; in this case, we need to lower to a ref instruction in the callconv/align/etc body, rather than in the declaration body. However, we don't append these bodies to extra until we've evaluated all of the bodies into a big GenZir stack. Therefore, we use this function to pull out these per-body ref instructions which must be emitted.

Params

astgen: *AstGen
param_insts: []const Zir.Inst.Index
