When running the example from the readme or anything else that uses libfringe like tokio-fibers i'm getting a segmenetation fault. Here's the stacktrace

(Not related to actual bug: in the future, please surround stacktraces in ``` ``` when you post them; now this issue is linked back from the first four issues in the repository.)

Unfortunately GitHub doesn't ever remove these backlinks, hence "in the future".

i know, don't even know how i forgot to use the code fence, sorry again

Can you reproduce this with current master? We're fixing a bunch of plumbing issues and unsafety that got into 1.x right now, and I'm working on releasing 2.0.0 soon.

Okay, can reproduce with the branch I'm working on. Welp.

After spending a while in confusion, I've figured out what's up:

(rr) x/2i $pc-1
   0x5619a1b72a20 <fringe::arch::imp::init::trampoline_2>:	jmp    0x5619a1b72a22 <fringe::arch::imp::init::trampoline_2+2>
   0x5619a1b72a22 <fringe::arch::imp::init::trampoline_2+2>:	nop

I'm not sure how this jmp is being generated - it's definitely not from our assembly. We add 1 byte to the instruction pointer to skip over this nop, but because of the jmp everything decodes rather differently, producing the segfault:

(rr) x/2i $pc
=> 0x5619a1b72a21 <fringe::arch::imp::init::trampoline_2+1>:	add    %dl,0x102454ff(%rax)
   0x5619a1b72a27 <fringe::arch::imp::init::trampoline_2+7>:	retq   

Still unsure why all the libfringe tests are working given all this..

The tests are passing because we build them with optimisations, causing rustc to eliminate the extra jmp.
I can either do an awful workaround, or I can wait for this to be fixed in rustc, since it should not be generating code into naked functions, and @eddyb is already working on a rustc patch.

@edef1c Just add a nopsled there.

@whitequark already did that, but there's more broken stuff (unwinding doesn't find a landing pad) - though maybe I can solve that with even more nops?
Either way, fixing this in rustc fixes it for all arches, and imo this is broken #[naked] behaviour.

Improve the LLVM IR we generate for trivial functions, especially #[naked] ones.

These two small changes fix edef1c/libfringe#68:
* Don't emit ZST allocas, such as when returning `()`
* Don't emit a branch from LLVM's entry block to MIR's `START_BLOCK` unless needed
  * That is, if a loop branches back to it, although I'm not sure that's even valid MIR
