When a `.build` target doesn't match the host, the runner can't execute the example here, so it verifies via `sx ir --target` only: asserts exit + the `.ir` snapshot (stdout) + diagnostics (stderr), never `.stdout`. An `.ir` snapshot is REQUIRED in ir-only mode — its absence is a loud failure, never a silent pass. - corpus_run.test.zig: ir_only flag (target set & !hostMatchesTarget); first dispatch arm runs `sx ir`, sets act_exit/act_err/act_ir; skip stdout in both update and verify modes; require ir_raw. - lock fixture 1639-platform-target-cross (asm-free main, target x86_64-linux, checked-in .ir). Verified: corrupt .ir => IR mismatch; delete .ir => require failure. Test-infra only; no compiler code. zig build test green (647 corpus, 444 unit).

# sx Inline Assembly — Checkpoint (ASM stream)
|
||
|
||
Companion to `current/PLAN-ASM.md`; design in
|
||
[docs/inline-asm-design.md](../docs/inline-asm-design.md). Update after every
|
||
commit, one step at a time per the cadence rule (no commit may both add a test
|
||
and make it pass).
|
||
|
||
## Last completed step
|
||
**0.1** — corpus runner **ir-only branch** for cross-target examples. Replaced
|
||
0.0's loud placeholder bail: when `cfg.target` doesn't match the host (`ir_only`),
|
||
`sweepRoot` skips run/build/exec and verifies via `sx ir --target` only —
|
||
asserting `.exit` (ir cmd) + `.ir` (normalized stdout) + `.stderr`, never
|
||
`.stdout` (write skipped in update mode, assertion skipped in verify mode). An
|
||
`.ir` snapshot is **required** in ir-only mode — its absence is a loud failure
|
||
("needs an .ir snapshot for ir-only mode"). Locked with
|
||
`examples/1639-platform-target-cross.sx` (asm-free `main :: () -> i64 { return 0;
|
||
}`), `.build` `{ "target": "x86_64-linux" }`, + checked-in `.ir`. Verified both
|
||
guards fire: corrupting the `.ir` → IR mismatch; deleting it → the require-failure.
|
||
`zig build test` green (647 corpus, 0 failed; 444 unit). Files:
|
||
`src/corpus_run.test.zig`, `examples/1639-*`.
|
||
|
||
## Current state
|
||
Phase 0 steps 0.0 + 0.1 landed (test-infra only — no compiler code). The corpus
|
||
runner reads `expected/<name>.build` (JSON `{ aot, target }`), threads `--target`,
|
||
and gates on host arch+os: a matching target **executes** (full exit/stdout/stderr
|
||
+ optional `.ir`); a mismatch runs **ir-only** (`sx ir --target`, asserting
|
||
exit+ir+stderr, `.ir` required). Phase A–E feasibility already confirmed against
|
||
the live tree (`LLVMGetInlineAsm` / `LLVMBuildCall2` / `LLVMAppendModuleInlineAsm`
|
||
in LLVM@19 `Core.h`; ERR-stream `extractvalue`→tuple in `emit_llvm.zig:726-927`;
|
||
lib-less `extern`, 60 sites; `--target` a global CLI flag).
|
||
|
||
## Next step
|
||
**0.2** — docs: update CLAUDE.md §"Testing"/§"Test layout" to document the
|
||
`<name>.build` JSON config (`aot` + `target` keys, ir-only gating) replacing the
|
||
standalone `.aot` marker prose (~lines 435, 492). Then Phase A (`kw_asm` keyword +
|
||
lex test). See `PLAN-ASM.md` Phase 0 / Phase A.
|
||
|
||
## Log
|
||
- (init) Plan + design doc written; ASM stream opened.
|
||
- (0.0) Corpus runner target-gating: `<name>.build` JSON config (replaces `.aot`
|
||
marker), `--target` threading, `hostMatchesTarget` execute-gate, loud
|
||
cross-target placeholder bail. Migrated 1226/1227 `.aot`→`.build`; locked with
|
||
1638 fixture + unit tests. `zig build test` green.
|
||
- (0.1) ir-only branch: cross-target examples verify via `sx ir --target` only
|
||
(exit+ir+stderr, no stdout; `.ir` required). Locked with 1639 fixture; verified
|
||
corrupt-.ir → mismatch and missing-.ir → loud failure. `zig build test` green.
|
||
|
||
## Known issues
|
||
None yet.
