Fix a problem with from_ground_term scopes.
Estimated hours taken: 20 Branches: main Fix a problem with from_ground_term scopes. When they are built, the scopes are tentantively marked as from_ground_term_construct scopes, and the unifications inside them are in a top down order. Mode analysis therefore expected the unifications inside from_ground_term_construct scopes to have that order. The problem was that mode analysis, when it confirmed that a from_ground_term scope is indeed a from_ground_term_construct scope, itself reversed the order of the unifications, putting them in a bottom up order. When mode analysis is reinvoked, either for unique mode checking, or after cse_detection finds common subexpressions, this meant that mode analysis found the unifications in the "wrong" order, and therefore disregarded the scope, discarding all its performance benefits. This diff separates out the two notions that we previously conflated. The scope kind from_ground_term_construct now refers only to scopes which are definitely known to construct ground terms. We can know that only after mode analysis. Until then, from_ground_term scopes are now marked as from_ground_term_initial. The two kinds have different though overlapping sets of invariants; in particular, they promise different orderings of the unifications in the scope. This diff reduces the time needed to compile mas_objects.data.m from about 221 seconds to about 8. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Add the from_ground_term_initial kind. Document the invariants that each kind of from_ground_term scope promises. compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Mark from_ground_term scopes initially as from_ground_term_initial, not from_ground_term_construct. compiler/post_typecheck.m: Make the predicate that converts function calls that look like unifications (such as X = int.min) into actual function calls say whether it performed such a conversion. compiler/purity.m: Use the new functionality in post_typecheck.m to convert from_ground_term_initial scopes into from_ground_term_other scopes if the conversion of a unification into a call means that we have to break an invariant expected of from_ground_term_initial scopes. compiler/cse_detection.m: compiler/switch_detection.m: Maintain the invariants we now expect of from_ground_term_deconstruct scopes. compiler/modecheck_goal.m: Maintain the invariants we now expect of the different from_ground_term scopes. Avoid traversing such scopes if a previous invocation of mode analysis says we can. Optimize away from_ground_term_construct scopes if the variable being constructed is not needed later. compiler/quantification.m: If the variable named in a from_ground_term_initial or from_ground_term_construct scope is not referred to outside the scope, set the nonlocals set of the scope to empty, which allows later compiler passes to optimize it away. Avoid some unnecessary work by the compiler. compiler/add_trail_ops.m: compiler/closure_analysis.m: compiler/constraint.m: compiler/dead_proc_elim.m: compiler/deep_profile.m: compiler/deforest.m: compiler/delay_construct.m: compiler/delay_partial_inst.m: compiler/dep_par_conj.m: compiler/dependency_graph.m: compiler/exception_analysis.m: compiler/follow_code.m: compiler/follow_vars.m: compiler/goal_form.m: compiler/goal_util.m: compiler/granularity.m: compiler/inlining.m: compiler/interval.m: compiler/lambda.m: compiler/lco.m: compiler/middle_rec.m: compiler/mode_util.m: compiler/parallel_to_plain.m: compiler/simplify.m: compiler/stm_expand.m: compiler/stratify.m: compiler/tabling_analysis.m: compiler/term_pass1.m: compiler/try_expand.m: compiler/tupling.m: compiler/untupling.m: compiler/unused_args.m: Avoid traversing from_ground_term_deconstruct scopes in cases where the invariants that now hold (mainly the absence of anything but deconstruct unifications) make such traversals unnecessary. compiler/live_vars.m: compiler/liveness.m: compiler/structure_reuse.lbu.m: Add comments about exploiting from_ground_term_deconstruct scopes. compiler/det_analysis.m: compiler/hlds_out_goal.m: compiler/polymorphism.m: compiler/saved_vars.m: compiler/unique_modes.m: Handle from_ground_term_initial scopes. compiler/handle_options.m: Add a dump verbosity option that is useful for comparing HLDS dumps created by two different compilers. compiler/type_util.m: Minor speedup. compiler/mode_info.m: compiler/modecheck_conj.m: compiler/prog_data.m: compiler/rbmm.region_transformation.m: compiler/typecheck.m: Improve documentation. |

Switch from using set(prog_var), which is represented using set_ordlist,
Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Switch from using set(prog_var), which is represented using set_ordlist, to set_of_progvar, which is represented using tree_bitset, for most sets of variables in the compiler, including the nonlocals sets in goal_infos. This diff yields about a 5% speedup when compiling the training_cars_full.m stress test, but also about a 1% slowdown on tools/speedtest. Both of these are with the current default state in which tree_bitset is compiled with a whole bunch of sanity checks. If these are disabled, we get roughly a 1% speedup on tools/speedtest. I intend to disable those sanity checks after a shakedown period of a week or two in which the updated version of the compiler is installed on our platforms. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Replace almost all occurrences of set(prog_var) with set_of_progvar. The main exceptions are the types supporting rbmm. compiler/set_of_var.m: Add some more predicates and functions that previous existed on sets but not yet on set_of_vars. compiler/*.m: Conform to the change in hlds_goal.m, and make similar changes in set representations. library/bag.m: Add a predicate and function for creating a bag from a sorted list. We already had them for creating a bag from a set, but a set_of_progvar shouldn't have to be converted to a set. library/robdd.m: Fix deviations from our programming style. |

Change the way the typechecker iterates over the predicates of the program.
Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Change the way the typechecker iterates over the predicates of the program. We used to do it by looking up each predicate in the module_info, typechecking it, and putting it back into the module_info. We now do it by converting the predicate table into a list, iterating over the list transforming each pred_info in it, converting the updated list back to a predicate table. The original intention of this change was to allow different predicates to be typechecked in parallel by removing a synchronization bottleneck: the typechecking of a predicate now doesn't have to wait for the typechecking of the previous predicate to generate the updated version of the module_info. However, it turned out that the change is good for sequential execution as well, improving the time on tools/speedtest from 11.33 seconds to 11.08 seconds, a speedup of 2.2%. On tools/speedtest -l, which tests the compilation of more modules, the speedup is even better: 3.1% (from 32.63 to 31.60s). compiler/typecheck.m: Implement the above change. compiler/hlds_module.m: compiler/pred_table.m: Add a new operation, setting the list of valid pred_ids, now needed by typecheck.m, to both modules. Make the names of the predicates for accessing the predicate table more expressive, and make them conform to our naming conventions. compiler/*.m: Trivial changes to conform to the change in hlds_module.m. library/assoc_list.m: Add new predicates used by the new version of typecheck.m (at some time in its development). NEWS: Mention the new predicates. library/list.m: Improve documentation that is now copied to assoc_list.m. tools/speedtest: Make the test command more easily configurable. |

Split up three big compiler modules: llds_out.m, hlds_out.m (5000+ lines each)
Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Split up three big compiler modules: llds_out.m, hlds_out.m (5000+ lines each) and deep_profiling.m (3000+ lines). Put the predicates in the resulting smaller modules into cohesive groups where possible. A few of the predicates in the original modules were unused; this diff deletes them. There are no algorithmic changes. compiler/llds_out_code_addr.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that outputs code addresses and labels. compiler/llds_out_data.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that outputs lvals, rvals and their components. compiler/llds_out_global.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that generates global static C data structures. compiler/llds_out_instr.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that outputs instructions compiler/llds_out_file.m: New module containing the top level part of llds_out.m, which coordinates the generation of a whole C source file. compiler/llds_out_util.m: New module containing the utility parts of llds_out.m. compiler/llds_out.m: Replace everything in this file with just the includes of the submodules that now have all its previous contents. compiler/hlds_llds.m: Move a predicate here from llds_out.m, since it is a utility predicate operating on a type defined here. compiler/rtti_out.m: Move a predicate here from llds_out.m, since it is a predicate generating output from a rtti type. compiler/hlds_out_mode.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out insts and modes. compiler/hlds_out_goal.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out goals. compiler/hlds_out_pred.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out predicates and procedures. compiler/hlds_out_module.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out module-wide tables. compiler/hlds_out_util.m: Parts of hlds_out.m that don't fit in anywhere else. compiler/hlds_out.m: Replace everything in this file with just the includes of the submodules that now have all its previous contents. compiler/simplify.m: compiler/hlds_goal.m: Move some insts from simplify.m to hlds_goal.m to allow hlds_out_goal.m to use them also. compiler/coverage_profiling.m: The part of deep_profiling.m that deals with coverage profiling. compiler/deep_profiling.m: Remove the code moved to coverage_profiling.m, and export the utility predicates needed by coverage_profiling.m.

Implement several more changes that together speed up compilation time
Estimated hours taken: 16 Branches: main Implement several more changes that together speed up compilation time on training_cars_full by 12%, and also improve tools/speedtest -h by 7.2% and tools/speedtest by 1.6%. The first change is designed to eliminate the time that the compiler spends constructing error messages that are then ignored. The working predicates of prog_io_sym_name used to always return a single result, which either gave a description of the thing being looked, or an error message. However, in many places, the caller did not consider not finding the thing being looked for to be an error, and thus threw away the error message, keeping only the "not found" indication. For each predicate with such callers, this diff provides a parallel predicate that indicates "not found" simply by failing. This allows us to eliminate the construction of the error message, the preparation for the construction of the error message (usually by describing the context), and the construction of the "ok" wrapper. The second change is to specialize the handling of from_ground_term_construct scopes in the termination analyzer. To make this easier, I also cleaned up of the infrastructure of the termination analyzer. The third change is to avoid traversing from_ground_term_construct scopes in quantification.m when finding the variables in a goal, since termination analysis no longer needs the information it gathers. The fourth change is to avoid traversing second and later conjuncts in conjunctions twice. The first step in handling conjunctions is to call implicitly_quantify_conj, which builds up a data structure that pairs each conjunct with the variables that occur free in all the conjuncts following it. However, after this was done and each conjunct was annotated with its nonlocals, we used to compute the variables that occur free in the conjunction as a whole from scratch. This diff changes the code so that we now compute that set based on the information we gathered earlier, avoiding a redundant traversal. The fifth change is to create specialized, lower-arity versions of many of the predicates in quantification.m. These versions are intended for traversals that take place after the compiler has replaced lambda expressions with references to separate procedures. These traversals do not need to pass around arguments representing the variables occurring free in the (now non-existent) lambda expressions. compiler/prog_io_sym_name.m: Make the first change described above. Change some predicate names to adopt a consistent naming scheme in which predicates that do the same job and differ only in how they handle errors have names that differ only in a "try_" prefix. Add some predicate versions that do common tests on the output of the base versions. For example, try_parse_sym_name_and_no_args is a version of try_parse_sym_name_and_args that insists on finding an empty argument list. Remove the unused "error term" argument that we used to need a while ago. Move some predicate definitions to make their order match the order of their declarations. Turn a predicate into a function for its caller's convenience. compiler/term_constr_build.m: Make the second change described above by modeling each from_ground_term_construct scope as a single unification, assigning the total size of the ground term to the variable being built. compiler/term_constr_util.m: Put the arguments of some predicates into a more standard order. compiler/lp_rational.m: Change the names of some function symbols to avoid both the use of graphic characters that require quoting and clashes with other types. Change the names of some predicates to make their purpose clear, and to avoid ambiguity. compiler/quantification.m: Make the third, fourth and fifth changes described above. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changes above. |

Make the mode analysis pass return errors as a single list of error
Estimated hours taken: 10 Branches: main Make the mode analysis pass return errors as a single list of error specifications, instead of printing those error specifications out in bits and pieces as it goes along.

Rationalize the argument orders of some predicates. compiler/modes.m: compiler/unify_proc.m: Move the code for modechecking the procedures in the requested unify procedure queue from unify_proc.m to modes.m, since that is where all the related code is.

Add support for `try' goals, syntactic sugar on top of the exception handling
Branches: main Add support for `try' goals, syntactic sugar on top of the exception handling predicates in the standard library. The syntax is documented in the reference manual. Currently one of the proposed try parameters, io(!IO), is implemented. Try goals are implemented by *two* source-to-source transformations, one at the parse tree level, then a later one on the HLDS.

Fix two bugs preventing the use of or_else alternatives to atomic
transaction scopes and nested atomic scopes.
The main issue was the code assuming that the inner stm interface variables
were the same for the main goal and the or_else goals, but quantification
renames these variables to be distinct.
library/stm_builtin.m
Rename stm_from_outer_to_inner_io and stm_from_inner_to_outer_io, dropping
the _io suffix. They are used when the outer type is stm as well as io.
compiler/hlds_goal.m
Add a field to the atomic_goal structure to hold the names of the STM
interface variables used in each or_else alternative, since quantification
renames these variables to be distinct from those used in the main atomic
goal.
compiler/purity.m
Insert calls to the (renamed) dummy predicates stm_from_outer_to_inner and
stm_from_inner_to_outer regardless of the type of the outer variable,
instead of using the nonexistent stm_from_*_to_*_stm versions when the
outer type is stm. Also use the inner STM interface variables specific to
each or_else alternative when generating these calls.
compiler/quantification.m
Explicitly rename the inner STM interface variables in each of the or_else
alternatives before calling implicitly_quantify_disj, so that the new names
of these variables can be stored in the atomic_goal structure.
compiler/typecheck.m
Ensure all the inner STM interface variables are typed stm, not just the
ones in the main goal.

Speed up the compiler's handling of code that constructs large ground terms
Estimated hours taken: 80
Branches: main
Speed up the compiler's handling of code that constructs large ground terms
by specializing the treatment of such code.
This diff reduces the compilation time for training_cars_full.m from 106.9
seconds to 30.3 seconds on alys, my laptop. The time on tools/speedtest
stays pretty much the same.
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
Record the classification of from_ground_term scopes as purely
constructing terms, purely deconstructing them or something other.
Fix an old potential bug: variables inside the construct_how fields
of unifications weren't being renamed along with other variables.
This is a bug if any part of the compiler later looks at those
variables. (I am not sure whether or not this happens.)
compiler/superhomogenous.m:
Provisionally mark newly constructed static terms as being
from_ground_term_construct. Mode checking will either confirm this
or change the scope kind.
compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
Add a new option, from_ground_term_threshold, that allows the user to
set the boundary between ground terms that get scopes and ground terms
do not. I plan to experiment with different settings later.
compiler/modes.m:
Make this classification. For scopes that construct ground terms,
use a specialized algorithm that avoids quadratic behavior.
(It does not access the unify_inst_table, which is where the
factor of N other than the length of the goal list came from.)
The total size of the instmap_deltas, if printed out, still looks like
O(N^2) in size, but due to structure sharing it needs only O(N) memory.
For scopes that construct ground terms, set the determinism information
so that det_analysis.m doesn't have to traverse such scopes.
When handling disjunctions, check whether some nonlocals of the
disjunctions are constructed by from_ground_term_construct scopes.
For any such nonlocals, set their insts to just ground, throwing away
the precise information we have about exactly what function symbols
they and ALL their subterms are bound to. This is HUGE win, since
it allows us avoid spending a lot of time building a huge merge_inst
table, which later passes of the compiler (e.g. equiv_type_hlds) would
then have to spend similarly huge times traversing.
This approach does have a down side. If lots of arms of a disjunction
bind a nonlocal to a large ground term, but a few bind it to a SMALL
ground term, a term below the from_ground_term_threshold, this
optimization won't kick in. That could be one purpose of the new
option. It isn't documented yet; I will seek feedback about its
usefulness first.
compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
Handle the three different kinds of right hand sides separately.
This yields a small speedup, because now we don't test rhs_vars and
rhs_functors (the common right hand sides) for a special case
(goals containing "any" insts) that is applicable only to
rhs_lambda_goals.
compiler/unique_modes.m:
Don't traverse scopes that construct ground terms, since modes.m has
already done everything that needs to be done.
compiler/det_analysis.m:
Don't traverse scopes that construct ground terms, since modes.m has
already done the needed work.
compiler/instmap.m:
Add a new predicate for use by modes.m.
Many predicate names in this module were quite uninformative; give them
informative names.
compiler/polymorphism.m:
If this pass invalidates the from_ground_term_construct invariants,
then mark the relevant scope as from_ground_term_other.
Delete two unused access predicates.
compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m:
Don't traverse scopes that construct ground terms, since modes.m
ensures that their instmap deltas do not contain typed insts, and
thus the scope cannot contain types that need to be expanded.
Convert some predicates to single clauses.
compiler/goal_form.m:
compiler/goal_util.m:
In predicates that test goals for various properties, don't traverse
scopes that construct ground terms when the outcome of the test
is the same for all such scopes.
Convert some predicates to single clauses.
compiler/simplify.m:
Do not look for common structs in from_ground_term_construct scopes,
both because this speeds up the compiler, and because retaining
references to ground terms is in fact a pessimization, not an
optimization. This is because (a) those references need to be stored in
stack slots across calls, and (b) the C code generators ensure that
the cells representing ground terms will be shared as needed.
If all arms of a switch are from_ground_term_construct scopes,
do not merge the instmap_deltas from those arms, since this is
both time-consuming (even after the other changes in this diff)
and extremely unlikely to improve the instmap_delta.
Disable common_struct in from_ground_term_construct scopes,
since for these scopes, it is actually a pessimization.
Do not delete from_ground_term_construct scopes, since many
compiler passes can now use them.
Do some manual deforestation, break up some large predicates,
and give better names to some.
compiler/liveness.m
Special-case the handling from_ground_term_construct scopes. This
allows us to traverse them just once instead of three times, and this
traversal is simpler and faster than any of the three.
In some traversals, we were switching on the goal type twice; once
in e.g. detect_liveness_in_goal_2, and once by calling
goal_expr_has_subgoals. Eliminate the double switching by merging
the relevant predicates. (The double-switching structure was easier
to work with before we had multi-cons-id switches.)
compiler/typecheck.m:
Move a lookup after a test, so we don't have to do it if the test
fails.
Provide a specialized mode for a predicate. This should allow the
compiler to eliminate an argument and a test in the common case.
Note a possible chance for a speedup.
compiler/typecheck_info.m:
Don't apply empty substitutions to the types of a possibly very large
set of variables.
compiler/quantification.m:
Don't quantify from_ground_term_construct scopes. They are created
correctly quantified, and any compiler pass that invalidates that
quantification also removes the from_ground_term_construct mark.
Don't apply empty renamings to a possibly very large set of variables.
Move the code for handling scopes to its own predicate, to avoid
overwhelming the code that handles other kinds of goals. Even from
this, factor out the renaming code, since it is needed only for
some kinds of scopes.
Make some predicate names better reflect what the predicate does.
compiler/pd_cost.m:
For from_ground_term_construct scopes, instead of computing their cost
by adding up the costs of the goals inside, make their cost a constant,
since binding a variable to a static term takes constant time.
compiler/pd_info.m:
Add prefixes on field names to avoid ambiguities.

In some modules (e.g. dead_proc_elim), some traversals had to be kept.
In loop_inv.m, replace a code structure that updated accumulators
with functions (which prevented the natural use of state variables),
that in lots of places reconstructed the term it had just
deconstructed, and obscured the identical handling of different kinds
of goals, with a structure based on predicates, state variables and
shared code for different goal types where possible.

The file modules.m contains lots of different kinds of functionality.
Estimated hours taken: 16 Branches: main The file modules.m contains lots of different kinds of functionality. While much of it belongs together, much of it does not. This diff moves most of the functionality that does not belong with the rest to several new modules: libs.file_util parse_tree.deps_map parse_tree.file_names parse_tree.module_cmds parse_tree.module_imports parse_tree.read_module parse_tree.write_deps_file To make them coherent, move some predicates from hlds.passes_aux, parse_tree.prog_io and parse_tree.prog_out to the new modules, making them more accessible, reducing the required access from the hlds package to parse_tree, or from the parse_tree package to libs. In the same spirit, this diff also moves some simple predicates and functions dealing with sym_names from prog_util.m to mdbcomp/prim_data.m. This allows several modules to avoid depending on parse_tree.prog_util. Rename some of the moved predicates and function symbols where this avoids ambiguity. (There were several that differed from other predicates or function symbols only in arity.) Replace several uses of bools with purpose-specific types. This makes some of the code significantly easier to read. This diff moves modules.m from being by far the largest module, to being only the seventh largest, from 8900+ lines to just 4200+. It also reduces the number of modules that import parse_tree.modules considerably; most modules that imported it now import only one or two of the new modules instead. Despite the size of the diff, there should be no algorithmic changes. compiler/modules.m: compiler/passes_aux.m: compiler/prog_io.m: compiler/prog_out.m: Delete the moved functionality. compiler/file_util.m: New module in the libs package. Its predicates search for files and do simple error or progress reporting. compiler/file_names.m: New module in the parse_tree package. It contains predicates for converting module names to file names. compiler/module_cmds.m: New module in the parse_tree package. Its predicates handle the commands for manipulating interface files of various kinds. compiler/module_import.m: New module in the parse_tree package. It contains the module_imports type and its access predicates, and the predicates that compute various sorts of direct dependencies (those caused by imports) between modules. compiler/deps_map.m: New module in the parse_tree package. It contains the data structure for recording indirect dependencies between modules, and the predicates for creating it. compiler/read_module.m: New module in the parse_tree package.

Provide compiler support for Software Transactional Memory through the new
Estimated hours taken: 80 by zs, and lots more by lmika Branches: main Provide compiler support for Software Transactional Memory through the new atomic goal. This work was done by Leon Mika; I merely brought it up to date, resolved conflicts, and cleaned up a few things. There are still several aspects that are as yet incomplete. library/ops.m: Add the operators needed for the syntax of atomic scopes. library/stm_builtin.m: Add the builtin operations needed for the implementation of atomic goals. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Add a new HLDS goal type, which represents an atomic goal and its possible fallbacks (in case an earlier goal throws an exception).

In some cases, add prefixes to the names of function symbols and predicates, for the same reason. In some cases, rename the variables holding the structures, when doing so improves the clarity of code. (When a module passes around structures of more than one kind, it shouldn't name *both* of them just "Info".)

Implement higher-order any' insts. Pred or func expressions with an any'
Estimated hours taken: 100 Branches: main Implement higher-order `any' insts. Pred or func expressions with an `any' inst may bind non-local solver variables, but themselves must not be called in a negated context. (The existing ground pred and func expressions may not bind non-local solver variables, but may be called in a negated context.) Higher-order `any' insts are specified by using `any_pred' and `any_func' in place of `pred' and `func', respectively. We implement these insts by adding a new field to the any/1 constructor of mer_inst, which is identical to the ground_inst_info field of the ground/2 constructor. Both are given the new type `ho_inst_info'. We then relax the locking of non-local variables in these pred and func expressions, and extend call/N and apply/N to also accept the new insts (provided the variables are not locked). We also store the groundness (ho_ground or ho_any) of each lambda expression in a unification, in a new field in the rhs_lambda_goal constructor. NEWS: Mention the new feature. compiler/prog_data.m: Rename the ground_inst_info type ho_inst_info, and update its documentation. Add the ho_inst_info field to the any constructor in mer_inst. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Add the rhs_groundness field to rhs_lambda_goal in unify_rhs. compiler/inst_match.m: Propagate inst matching into the pred_inst_infos of any insts, if they exist. compiler/inst_util.m: Propagate abstract unification and inst merging into the pred_inst_infos of any insts, if they exist. May use of this information when building ground, any, shared and mostly_unique versions of insts. compiler/modecheck_call.m: Allow an `any' inst as the pred (func) argument to call/N (apply/N), but check that the variable is not locked. If the variable is locked, report a mode error which suggests using the ground inst. (We could also suggest that the goal be made impure, but it is best to point users towards the pure approach.) compiler/modecheck_unify.m: Relax the locking of non-locals when processing non-ground lambda goals. Update documentation. compiler/mode_util.m: Propagate type information into the pred_inst_infos of any insts. compiler/mode_errors.m: Change the purity error "lambda should be impure" to "lambda should be any", since this is better advice. Also provide an example of correct syntax if the verbose errors option is given. compiler/prog_io_goal.m: Parse the new kinds of expressions, returning the groundness along with the existing information about lambda expressions. compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Use the above groundness when building the lambda unification. compiler/prog_io_util.m: Parse the new kind of insts, filling in the new ho_inst_info field where appropriate. compiler/polymorphism.m: Handle the new fields. Assume that the shorthand form of lambda expressions always defines a ground inst -- if users want non-ground higher-order expressions they will need to use an explicit any_pred or any_func expression. compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m: Replace equivalent types in the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts. compiler/module_qual.m: Module qualify the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts. compiler/recompilation.usage.m: compiler/unused_imports.m: Look for items or imports used by insts in the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts. compiler/hlds_out.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Output the new lambda expressions and insts in the correct format. compiler/type_util.m: Treat all pred and func types as solver types. (Effectively they are, since all such types can now have non-ground values, with call/N and apply/N acting as constraints.) compiler/lambda.m: Pass the groundness value when building procedures for lambda expressions.

Convert predicates that used to have one clause for each kind of
Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main compiler/*.m: Convert predicates that used to have one clause for each kind of HLDS goal into explicit disjunctions, since this gives the debugger a meaningful name for each argument. In some cases, this exposed arguments that were used by *no* clause. In other cases, it allowed factoring out common code, as well as code that *should* have been common but wasn't. Put the disjuncts in a meaningful order. In too many cases, they were almost random. Merge the resulting predicates into their parents, in places where the Prolog indexing one could get from separate clauses was the only reason for separating those predicates from their parents in the first place. Similarly, merge child predicates handling generic call kinds and such back into the main predicate where this improves clarity. In some cases, this allows putting the extraction of hlds_goal_expr from a hlds_goal into one place, instead of repeating it in lots of places. Give some predicates more descriptive names. In some cases, rationalize argument order. In some cases, rationalize the order of predicates in the module. Replace some uses of booleans with purpose-specific types. Give some fields names, and put type-identifying prefixes on the names of other fields, to make tag files work better. In some cases, reorder fields to them put into related groups. Use more standard and/or more descriptive variable names Use a standard syntax for if-then-else in each module. Follow our style convention for comments. |

Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate
Estimated hours taken: 40
Branches: main
Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate
more than one cons_id with a switch arm. Previously, for switches like this:
(
X = a,
goal1
;
( X = b
; X = c
),
goal2
)
we duplicated goal2. With this diff, goal2 won't be duplicated. We still
duplicate goals when that is necessary, i.e. in cases which the inner
disjunction contains code other than a functor test on the switched-on var,
like this:
(
X = a,
goal1
;
(
X = b,
goalb
;
X = c
goalc
),
goal2
)
For now, true multi-cons_id arm switches are supported only by the LLDS
backend. Supporting them on the MLDS backend is trickier, because some MLDS
target languages (e.g. Java) don't support the concept at all. So when
compiling to MLDS, we still duplicate the goal in switch detection (although
we could delay the duplication to just before code generation, if we wanted.)
compiler/options.m:
Add an internal option that tells switch detection whether to look for
multi-cons_id switch arms.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Set this option based on the back end.
Add a version of the "trans" dump level that doesn't print unification
details.
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
Extend the representation of switch cases to allow more than one
cons_id for a switch arm.
Add a type for representing switches that also includes tag information
(for use by the backends).
compiler/hlds_data.m:
For du types, record whether it is possible to speed up tests for one
cons_id (e.g. cons) by testing for the other (nil) and negating the
result. Recording this information once is faster than having
unify_gen.m trying to compute it from scratch for every single
tag test.
Add a type for representing a cons_id together with its tag.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
Print out the cheaper_tag_test information for types, and possibly
several cons_ids for each switch arm.
Add some utility predicates for describing switch arms in terms of
which cons_ids they are for.
Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types.
Make hlds_out honor is documentation, and not print out detailed
information about unifications (e.g. uniqueness and static allocation)
unless the right character ('u') is present in the control string.
compiler/add_type.m:
Fill in the information about cheaper tag tests when adding a du type.
compiler/switch_detection.m:
Extend the switch detection algorithm to detect multi-cons_id switch
arms.
When entering a switch arm, update the instmap to reflect that the
switched-on variable can now be bound only to the cons_ids that this
switch arm is for. We now need to do this, because if the arm contains
another switch on the same variable, computing the can_fail field of
that switch correctly requires us to know this information.
(Obviously, an arm for a single cons_id is unlikely to have switch on
the same variable, and for arms for several cons_ids, we previously
duplicated the arm and left the unification with the cons_id in each
copy, and this unification allowed the correct handling of any later
switches. However, the code of a multi-cons_id switch arm obviously
cannot have a unification with each cons_id in it, which is why
we now need to get the binding information from the switch itself.)
Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types, and give some
predicates better names.
compiler/instmap.m:
Provide predicates for recording that a switched-on variable has
one of several given cons_ids, for use at the starts of switch arms.
Give some predicates better names.
compiler/modes.m:
Provide predicates for updating the mode_info at the start of a
multi-cons_id switch arm.
compiler/det_report.m:
Handle multi-cons_id switch arms.
Update the instmap when entering each switch arm, since this is needed
to provide good (i.e. non-misleading) error messages when one switch on
a variable exists inside another switch on the same variable.
Since updating the instmap requires updating the module_info (since
the new inst may require a new entry in an inst table), thread the
det_info through as updateable state.
Replace some multi-clause predicate definitions with single clauses,
to make it easier to print the arguments in mdb.
Fix some misleading variable names.
compiler/det_analysis.m:
Update the instmap when entering each switch arm and thread the
det_info through as updateable state, since the predicates we call
in det_report.m require this.
compiler/det_util.m:
Handle multi-cons_id switch arms.
Rationalize the argument order of some access predicates.
compiler/switch_util.m:
Change the parts of this module that deal with string and tag switches
to optionally convert each arm to an arbitrary representation of the
arm. In the LLDS backend, the conversion process generated code for
the arm, and the arm's representation is the label at the start of
this code. This way, we can duplicate the label without duplicating
the code.
Add a new part of this module that associates each cons_id with its
tag, and (during the same pass) checks whether all the cons_ids are
integers, and if so what are min and max of these integers (needed
for dense switches). This scan is needed because the old way of making
this test had single-cons_id switch arms as one of its basic
assumptions, and doing it while adding tags to each case reduces
the number of traversals required.
Give better names to some predicates.
compiler/switch_case.m:
New module to handle the tasks associated with managing multi-cons_id
switch arms, including representing them for switch_util.m.
compiler/ll_backend.m:
Include the new module.
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
Note the new module.
compiler/llds.m:
Change the computed goto instruction to take a list of maybe labels
instead of a list of labels, with any missing labels meaning "not
reached".
compiler/string_switch.m:
compiler/tag_switch.m:
Reorganize the way these modules work. We can't generate the code of
each arm in place anymore, since it is now possible for more than one
cons_id to call for the execution of the same code. Instead, in
string_switch.m, we generate the codes of all the arms all at once,
and construct the hash index afterwards. (This approach simplifies
the code significantly.)
In tag switches (unlike string switches), we can get locality benefits
if the code testing for a cons_id is close to the code for that
cons_id, so we still try to put them next to each other when such
a locality benefit is available.
In both modules, the new approach uses a utility predicate in
switch_case.m to actually generate the code of each switch arm,
eliminating several copies the same code in the old versions of these
modules.
In tag_switch.m, don't create a local label that simply jumps to the
code address do_not_reached. Previously, we had to do this for
positions in jump tables that corresponded to cons_ids that the switch
variable could not be bound to. With the change to llds.m, we now
simply generate a "no" instead.
compiler/lookup_switch.m:
Get the info about int switch limits from our caller; don't compute it
here.
Give some variables better names.
compiler/dense_switch.m:
Generate the codes of the cases all at once, then assemble the table,
duplicate the labels as needed. This separation of concerns allows
significant simplifications.
Pack up all the information shared between the predicate that detects
whether a dense switch is appropriate and the predicate that actually
generates the dense switch.
Move some utility predicates to switch_util.
compiler/switch_gen.m:
Delete the code for tagging cons_ids, since that functionality is now
in switch_util.m.
The old version of this module could call the code generator to produce
(i.e. materialize) the switched-on variable repeatedly. We now produce
the variable once, and do the switch on the resulting rval.
compiler/unify_gen.m:
Use the information about cheaper tag tests in the type constructor's
entry in the HLDS type table, instead of trying to recompute it
every time.
Provide the predicates switch_gen.m now needs to perform tag tests
on rvals, as opposed to variables, and against possible more than one
cons_id.
Allow the caller to provide the tag corresponding to the cons_id(s)
in tag tests, since when we are generating code for switches, the
required computations have already been done.
Factor out some code to make all this possible.
Give better names to some predicates.
compiler/code_info.m:
Provide some utility predicates for the new code in other modules.
Give better names to some existing predicates.
compiler/hlds_code_util.m:
Rationalize the argument order of some predicates.
Replace some multi-clause predicate definitions with single clauses,
to make it easier to print the arguments in mdb.

Only report mode warnings if they occur in all modes.
Estimated hours taken: 5 Branches: main Only report mode warnings if they occur in all modes. simplify.m already had code to remove error_specs that do not occur in all modes, so move this code to error_util.m and reuse it in modes.m. Also only report mode warnings for user defined predicates. Do not report them for compiler generated predicates (after making the change in the previous paragraph, the compiler issued a warning for a generated unification predicate in term_to_xml.m). compiler/cse_detection.m: Conform to new interface of modecheck_proc. compiler/error_util.m: Add an abstract type error_spec_accumulator and predicates for working with this type. The new type is used for accumulating errors over multiple modes of a predicate. The code for accumulating error specs has been moved from simplify.m. There was a bug in this code caused by the arguments of the pair in the error_spec_accumulator type getting mixed up. This bug has now been fixed. Add mode_report_control to the modecheck phase, so we can mark which error specs should only be reported if they occur in all modes. compiler/mode_errors.m: Delete report_mode_errors and report_mode_warnings, since these are no longer used. Export mode_error_info_to_spec and mode_warning_info_to_spec for converting mode errors and warnings to error specs. Conform to changes in error_util.m. compiler/modecheck_unify.m: Do not supress warnings if the mode may use a subtype, since we want such warnings to be displayed if the occur in all modes. Only report mode warnings if the predicate is not a compiler generated predicate. compiler/modes.m: Delete modecheck_pred_mode and modecheck_proc_info, since they are not used anywhere. In modecheck_proc and modecheck_proc_general report a list of error specs, instead of the number of errors. These predicates are now no longer responsible for printing the errors, they just return the error specs. We need to do it this way so we can accumulate the errors over all modes (eliminating any warnings that don't occur in all modes) before printing them. Report errors in modecheck_pred_mode_2, after all modes have been processed. Accumulate the error specs in modecheck_procs, using the new predicates in error_util.m. Move the code for only reporting the first error encountered for a proc from mode_errors.m to here. Also improve the comment for that bit of code.

Fix a bug that caused bootchecks with --optimize-constructor-last-call to fail.
Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Fix a bug that caused bootchecks with --optimize-constructor-last-call to fail. The problem was not in lco.m, but in follow_code.m. In some cases, (specifically, the LCMC version of insert_2 in sparse_bitset.m), follow_code.m moved an impure goal (store_at_ref) into the arms of an if-then-else without marking those arms, or the if-then-else, as impure. The next pass, simplify, then deleted the entire if-then-else, since it had no outputs. (The store_at_ref that originally appeared after the if-then-else was the only consumer of its only output.) The fix is to get follow_code.m to make branched control structures such as if-then-elses, as well as their arms, semipure or impure if a goal being moved into them is semipure or impure, or if they came from an semipure or impure conjunction. Improve the optimization of the LCMC version of sparse_bitset.insert_2, which had a foreign_proc invocation of bits_per_int in it: replace such invocations with a unification of the bits_per_int constant if not cross compiling. Add a new option, --optimize-constructor-last-call-null. When set, LCMC will assign NULLs to the fields not yet filled in, to avoid any junk happens to be there from being followed by the garbage collector's mark phase. This diff also makes several other changes that helped me to track down the bug above. compiler/follow_code.m: Make the fix described above. Delete all the provisions for --prev-code; it won't be implemented. Don't export a predicate that is not now used anywhere else. compiler/simplify.m: Make the optimization described above. compiler/lco.m: Make sure that the LCMC specialized procedure is a predicate, not a function: having a function with the mode LCMC_insert_2(in, in) = in looks wrong. To avoid name collisions when a function and a predicate with the same name and arity have LCMC applied to them, include the predicate vs function status of the original procedure included in the name of the new procedure. Update the sym_name of calls to LCMC variants, not just the pred_id, because without that, the HLDS dump looks misleading. compiler/pred_table.m: Don't have optimizations like LCMC insert new predicates at the front of the list of predicates. Maintain the list of predicates in the module as a two part list, to allow efficient addition of new pred_ids at the (logical) end without using O(N^2) algorithms. Having predicates in chronological order makes it easier to look at HLDS dumps and .c files. compiler/hlds_module.m: Make module_info_predids return a module_info that is physically updated though logically unchanged. compiler/options.m: Add --optimize-constructor-last-call-null. Make the options --dump-hlds-pred-id, --debug-opt-pred-id and --debug-opt-pred-name into accumulating options, to allow the user to specify more than one predicate to be dumped (e.g. insert_2 and its LCMC variant). Delete --prev-code. doc/user_guide.texi: Document the changes in options.m. compiler/code_info.m: Record the value of --optimize-constructor-last-call-null in the code_info, to avoid lookup at every cell construction. compiler/unify_gen.m: compiler/var_locn.m: When deciding whether a cell can be static or not, make sure that we never make static a cell that has some fields initialized with dummy zeros, to be filled in for real later. compiler/hlds_out.m: For goals that are semipure or impure, note this fact. This info was lost when I changed the representation of impurity from markers to a field. mdbcomp/prim_data.m: Rename some ambiguous function symbols. compiler/intermod.m: compiler/trans_opt.m: Rename the main predicates (and some function symbols) of these modules to avoid ambiguity and to make them more expressive. compiler/llds.m: Don't print line numbers for foreign_code fragments if the user has specified --no-line-numbers. compiler/make.dependencies.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: compiler/recompilation.usage.m: Don't use io.write to write out information to files we may need to parse again, because this is vulnerable to changes to the names of function symbols (e.g. the one to mdbcomp/prim_data.m). The compiler still contains some uses of io.write, but they are for debugging. I added an item to the todo list of the one exception, ilasm.m. compiler/recompilation.m: Rename a misleading function symbol name. compiler/parse_tree.m: Don't import recompilation.m here. It is not needed (all the components of parse_tree that need recompilation.m already import it themselves), and deleting the import avoids recompiling almost everything when recompilation.m changes. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changes above. compiler/*.m: browser/*.m: slice/*.m: Conform to the change to mdbcomp. library/sparse_bitset.m: Use some better variable names. |

This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair
Estimated hours taken: 10 Branches: main This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair to being discriminated union types with their own function symbol. This was motivated by an error message (one of many, but the one that broke the camel's back) about "-" being used in an ambiguous manner. It will reduce the number of such messages in the future, and will make compiler data structures easier to inspect in the debugger. The most important type changed by far is hlds_goal, whose function symbol is now "hlds_goal". Second and third in importance are llds.instruction (function symbol "llds_instr") and prog_item.m's item_and_context (function symbol "item_and_context"). There are some others as well. In several places, I rearranged predicates to factor the deconstruction of goals into hlds_goal_expr and hlds_goal_into out of each clause into a single point. In many places, I changed variable names that used "Goal" to refer to just hlds_goal_exprs to use "GoalExpr" instead. I also changed variable names that used "Item" to refer to item_and_contexts to use "ItemAndContext" instead. This should make reading such code less confusing. I renamed some function symbols and predicates to avoid ambiguities. I only made one algorithmic change (at least intentionally). In assertion.m, comparing two goals for equality now ignores goal_infos for all kinds of goals, whereas previously it ignored them for most kinds of goals, but for shorthand goals it was insisting on them being equal. This seemed to me to be a bug. Pete, can you confirm this? |

This diff contains no algorithmic changes.
Estimated hours taken: 8 Branches: main This diff contains no algorithmic changes. It merely renames apart a bunch of function symbols to reduce ambiguity. Basically I went through prog_data.m, prog_item.m, hlds_data.m, hlds_goal.m and hlds_pred.m looking for type definitions containing function symbol names that were either language "keywords" (e.g. "terminates", which is an annotation on foreign_procs), used with slightly different meanings in several types (e.g. "sym"), or both (e.g. "call"). When I found such type definitions, I changed the names of the function symbols, usually by adding a prefix or suffix indicating the type to all function symbols of the type. For example, the old function symbol "foreign_proc" in type "pragma_type" is now named "pragma_foreign_proc", and the names of all other function symbols in that type also start with "pragma_". All of this should yield simpler compiler error messages when we make mistakes, and will make it more likely that looking up a function symbol using a tags file will take you to the actual definition of the relevant instance of that function symbol. However, the most important benefit is the increase in the readability of unfamiliar code; the reader won't have to emulate the compiler's type ambiguity resolution algorithm (which in many cases used to require distinguishing between f/14 and f/15 by counting the arguments, e.g. for "pred_or_func"). compiler/prog_data.m: compiler/prog_item.m: compiler/hlds_data.m: compiler/hlds_goal.m: compiler/hlds_pred.m: Rename function symbols as explained above. compiler/*.m: Conform to the function symbol renames.

Implement the trace goal construct we discussed, for now for the LLDS backends
Estimated hours taken: 70
Branches: main
Implement the trace goal construct we discussed, for now for the LLDS backends
only.
Since the syntax of trace goals is non-trivial, useful feedback on syntax
errors inside trace goal attributes is essential. With the previous setup, this
wasn't possible, since the code that turned terms into parse tree goals turned
*all* terms into goals; it couldn't recognize any errors, sweeping them under
the rug as calls. This diff changes that. Now, if this code recognizes a
keyword that indicates a particular construct, it insists on the rest of the
code following the syntax required for that construct, and returns error
messages if it doesn't.
We handle the trace goal attributes that specify state variables to be threaded
through the trace goal (either the I/O state or a mutable variable) in
add_clause.m, at the point at which we transform the list of items to the HLDS.
We handle the compile-time condition on trace goals in the invocation of
simplify at the end of semantics analysis, by eliminating the goal if the
compile-time condition isn't met. We handle run-time conditions on trace goals
partially in the same invocation of simplify: we transform trace goals with
runtime conditions into an if-then-else with the trace goal as the then part
and `true' as the else part, the condition being a foreign_proc that is handled
specially by the code generator, that special handling being to replace
the actual code of the foreign_proc (which is a dummy) with the evaluation of
the runtime condition.
Since these changes require significant changes to some of our key data
structures, I took the liberty of doing some renaming of function symbols
at the same time to avoid using ambiguities with respect to language keywords.
library/ops.m:
Add "trace" as an operator.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Define data types to represent the various attributes of trace goals.
Rename some function symbols to avoid ambiguities.
compiler/prog_item.m:
Extend the parse tree representation of goals with a trace goal.
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Output the new kind of goal and its components.
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
Extend the HLDS representation of scopes with a scope_reason
representing trace goals.
Add a mechanism (an extra argument in foreign_procs) to allow
the representation of goals that evaluate runtime trace conditions.
Since this requires modifying all code that traverses the HLDS,
do some renames that were long overdue: rename not as negation,
rename call as plain_call, and rename foreign_proc as
call_foreign_proc. These renames all avoid using language keywords
as function symbols.
Change the way we record goals' purities. Instead of optional features
to indicate impure or semipure, which is error-prone, use a plain
field in the goal_info, accessed in the usual way.
Add a way to represent that a goal contains a trace goal, and should
therefore be treated as if it were impure when considering whether to
optimize it away.
Reformat some comments describing function symbols.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
Output the new construct in the HLDS.
compiler/prog_io_util.m:
Generalize the maybe[123] types to allow the representation of more
than one error message. Add functions to extract the error messages.
Add a maybe4 type. Rename the function symbols of these types to
avoid massive ambiguity.
Change the order of some predicates to bring related predicates
next to each other.
compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_dcg.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Rework these modules almost completely to find and accumulate syntax
errors as terms are being parsed. In some cases, this allowed us to
replace "XXX this is a hack" markers with meaningful error-reporting
code.
In prog_io_goal.m, add code for parsing trace goals.
In a bunch of places, update obsolete coding practices, such as using
nested chains of closures instead of simple sequential code, and
using A0 and A to refer to values of different types (terms and goals
respectively). Use more meaningful variable names.
Break up some too-large predicates.
compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
Find and accumulate syntax errors as terms are being parsed.
compiler/add_clause.m:
Add code to transform trace goals from the parse tree to the HLDS.
This is where the IO state and mutable variable attributes of trace
goals are handled.

Fix several performance bugs that showed up when the compiler was invoked on
Estimated hours taken: 20 Branches: main Fix several performance bugs that showed up when the compiler was invoked on Douglas Auclair's training_cars example. Also fix some minor problems that made it harder to find the information needed to localize those problems. training_cars.m is hard to compile quickly because it is big in two dimensions: it has lots of clauses, and each clause has big terms. My laptop still tries to swap itself to death on the full version of training_cars.m (it has only 512 Mb), but the compiler now works fine on a version containing about 20% of its clauses, whereas previously it couldn't compile it at all. In most cases, the changes convert N^2 algorithms to NlogN algorithms. They probably have higher constant factors and may yield small slowdowns for small N, but this is probably not noticeable. Avoiding bad worst case behavior is more important. compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Record the number of goals inserted in each goal being converted to superhomogeneous form. If this exceeds a threshold, wrap a from_ground_term scope around it. Put the predicates into a more cohesive sequence. compiler/field_access.m: Work with the code in superhomogeneous to record the number of inserted goals. Reorder the arguments of some performances to be consistent with the predicates in superhomogeneous.m. compiler/modes.m: Use the from_ground_term scope to reverse the list of inserted unifications if necessary. It is much more efficient to do this here than to let it happen by sequences of delays and wakeups. That would have quadratic complexity; this is linear. This is what I originally introduced from_ground_term scopes for. Then, the overhead was too high, because I added one scope per function symbol. This version should be fine, since there is at most one scope added per argument of an atom (clause head or call). compiler/modes.m: compiler/unique_modes.m: When we are processing goals inside a from_ground_term scope, record this fact. compiler/mode_info.m: Make it possible to record this fact. compiler/modecheck_unify.m: When we are inside a from_ground_term scope, don't try to update the insts of vars on the right hand sides of construction unifications. Since these variables came from expansion to superhomogeneous form, those variables won't occur in any following code, so updating their state is useless, and the algorithm we used to do so is linear in the size of the inst. Since the size of an inst of a variable that results from superhomogeneous expansion is itself on average proportional to the size of the original term, this change turns a quadratic algorithm into a linear one. compiler/inst_match.m: Use balanced trees instead of ordered lists to represents sets of expansions, since these sets can be large. Note an opportunity for further improvement. compiler/inst_util.m: Note another opportunity for further improvement. compiler/instmap.m: Rename several predicates to avoid ambiguities. compiler/cse_detection.m: We used to print statistics for the processing of each procedure without saying which procedure it is for; fix this. compiler/switch_detection.m: Don't print progress messages for predicates with no procedures, since they would be misleading. compiler/higher_order.m: Change an algorithm that was quadratic in the number of arms for merging the information from the different arms of disjunctions and switches to an NlogN algorithm. Change the algorithm for merging the info from two branches that quadratic in the number of variables per arm to an NlogN algorithm. Changed some type equivalences to notag types to aid robustness. compiler/quantification.m: Rename several predicates to avoid ambiguities. The sets of variables in different arms of disjunctions and switches tend to have relatively small intersections. Yet the algorithms we used to compute the set of variables free in the disjunction or switch included the variables from the already processed arms in the sets being accumulated when processing later arms, leading to the quadratic behavior. This diff changes the algorithm to process each arm independently, and then use a more balanced algorithm to summarize the result. Specialize the predicates that compute sets of free vars in various HLDS fragments to work either with ordinary_nonlocals or code_gen_nonlocals without making the same decision repeatedly. Move some code out of large predicates into predicates of their own. compiler/Mercury.options: Specify the compiler option that can exploit this specialization to make the code run faster. compiler/simplify.m: Use a more efficient data structure for recording the parameters of an invocation of simplification. Change some predicate names and function symbol names to avoid ambiguity. compiler/common.m: compiler/deforest.m: compiler/deforest.m: compiler/make_hlds_warn.m: compiler/mercury_compile.m: compiler/pd_util.m: compiler/stack_opt.m: compiler/term_constr_build.m: Conform to the changes in simplify.m and/or instmap.m. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Fix a bug in progress messages for polymorphism.m. compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m: Most of the time, substitutions inside insts have no effect, because very few insts include any reference to a types. Instead of the old approach of building new insts and then throwing them away if they are the same as the old ones, don't build new insts at all if the old inst contains no types. compiler/common.m: Change some predicate names to make them clearer. compiler/hlds_clauses.m: Record the number of clauses so far, to allow a more informative progress message to be printed. compiler/add_clause.m: Print this more informative progress message. Conform to the changes in superhomogeneous.m. compiler/code_gen.m: Use the context of the predicate's first clause (which will be the context of the first clause head) as the context of the predicate's interface events. Unlike the context of the body goal, this won't be affected by program transformations such as wrapping a from_ground_term scope around some goals. It is better for users anyway, since the old policy lead to contexts in the middle of procedure bodies if the top level goal was a disjunction, switch or if-then-else. tests/debugger/*.exp: Update the expected outputs to conform to the change to code_gen.m. |

Prepare for an extension of promise_equivalent_solutions that will allow us
Estimated hours taken: 5 Branches: main Prepare for an extension of promise_equivalent_solutions that will allow us to better handle values of user-defined types. The problem is that currently, the deconstruction of a value of such a type can be followed only by code that cannot fail, otherwise the cc_multi deconstruction is not in the required single-solution context. If the following code is naturally semidet, this can be worked around by turning it into det code returning a maybe and testing the maybe outside the promise_equivalent_solutions, but this is inefficient, and in any case it does not generalize to nondet code without even more horrendous inefficiency and inconvenience. (You have to create a nondet closure and call it outside the promise_equivalent_solutions.) The solution I came up with is something is to have a construct that contains - a list of deconstructions on types with user-defined equality, - a goal, and - the list of outputs of that goal. The idea is that this would be transformed into a conjunction of the first and second items, and wrapped inside a special kind of conj that provides a scope for the implicit promise, which is that the set of solutions of the goal in the second item doesn't depend on what concrete terms the deconstructions in the first item return out of the set of concrete terms they *could* return. The deconstructions in the first item would be marked to tell determinism analysis to effectively ignore the fact that they involve user-defined equality. The actual addition of that construct is left for a future change, after we agree on the syntax. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Generalize the existing promise_equivalent_solutions scope to a promise_solutions scope with a flag that says whether in the source code it was originally the existing "promise_equivalent_solutions" construct or the new construct (which doesn't exist yet, but is indicated by the symbol "same_solutions" for now). Replace the conj and par_conj hlds_goal_exprs with a single goal expression: conj with an additional argument which is either plain_conj or parallel_conj. This was part of an earlier design in which a third kind of disjunction took the role now assigned to the new kind of promise_solutions scope, but turned out to be a good idea anyway, since in many places the compiler does treat the two kinds of conjunctions the same. This part of the change is responsible for the fact that this change results in a net *reduction* of about 40 lines. Move the most frequently used kinds of goal expressions to the front of the type declaration to allow the compiler to make better decisions about tag allocation. Add the goal marker we will add to the deconstructions in the first item. Replace the true_goal and fail_goal predicates with functions to make them easier to use, and rename their variants that take a context argument to avoid unnecessary ambiguity. compiler/*.m: Conform to the change in hlds_goal.m. Misc changes to make code more robust, e.g. replacing semidet predicates on goal expressions with functions returning bool. Misc cleanups, e.g. removal of unnecessary module qualifications that made lines too long, renaming predicates whose names include "disj" if they are also used to process parallel conjunctions (since in both parallel conjunctions and in disjunctions the goals are independent), and turning semidet predicates that switch on goal expressions into bool functions (to make similar changes more rebust in the future). |

Remove support for the Aditi backend. It is a pain to have to update it every
Estimated hours taken: 2 Branches: main Remove support for the Aditi backend. It is a pain to have to update it every time a data structure changes when we don't see any benefit from it, and its presence makes compilation of the compiler directory take about 10% longer (since the Aditi backend modules are roughly 10% of the code in the compiler directory). Deleting the Aditi-specific data structures from the HLDS should also speed up compilation a little bit. I have spoken to Rao and he is fine with this step. Aditi users, if there are any, can continue to use the Aditi support in release 0.12.*. I also tagged the last version on the trunk to support aditi with the name "last_aditi". The need for modifications in this Aditi support is likely to be very rare to nonexistent, if the recent past is any guide: the Aditi backend hasn't seen a nontrivial modification in a year or more.

This option is not visible to users. compiler/handle_options.m: Set detailed_statistics only if -v and -S are both set. compiler/mercury_compile.m: compiler/modes.m: compiler/modules.m: compiler/optimize.m: compiler/typecheck_errors.m: In a bunch of places where progress messages are enabled only with -V and not with -v, consult detailed_statistics instead of statistics to decide whether to print statistics, in order to make sure you get only interpretable statistics. compiler/make_hlds_passes.m: Print messages before two statistics reports, because otherwise the statistics are not interpretable. Don't print stats for module optimization, since it is now a no-op. compiler/cse_detection.m: Print statistics if detailed_statistics is set. This is useful because in some cases, cse_detection can be expensive (it reruns mode analysis). compiler/simplify.m: Print statistics if detailed_statistics is set. This is useful because in some cases, simplify can be expensive. |

Rename the types 'type', 'inst' and 'mode' to 'mer_type', 'mer_inst'
Estimated hours taken: 8 Branches: main compiler/*.m: Rename the types 'type', 'inst' and 'mode' to 'mer_type', 'mer_inst' and 'mer_mode'. This is to avoid the need to parenthesize these type names in some contexts, and to prepare for the possibility of a parser that considers those words to be reserved words. Rename some other uses of those names (e.g. as item types in recompilation.m). Delete some redundant synonyms (prog_type, mercury_type) for mer_type. Change some type names (e.g. mlds__type) and predicate names (e.g. deforest__goal) to make them unique even without module qualification. Rename the function symbols (e.g. pure, &) that need to be renamed to avoid the need to parenthesize them. Make their replacement names more expressive. Convert some more modules to four space indentation. Avoid excessively long lines, such as those resulting from the automatic substitution of 'mer_type' for 'type'. |

way we currently optimize io.state and store.store.
runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
Add a new type_ctor_rep for dummy types.
runtime/mercury_tabling.h:
Add a representation for "tabled" dummy types, which don't actually
have a level in the trie, so that the runtime system can handle that
fact.
runtime/mercury_ml_expand_body.h:
When deconstructing a value of a dummy type, ignore the actual value
(since it will contain garbage) and instead return the only possible
value of the type.

Add a new type_ctor_rep for dummy types, and fix some previous
discrepancies in type_ctor_reps.
mdbcomp/prim_data.m:
Move a bunch of predicates for manipulating special_pred_ids here from
the browser and compiler directories.
Rename the function symbols of the special_pred_id type to avoid the
need to parenthesize the old `initialise' function symbol.
Convert to four-space indentation.
mdbcomp/rtti_access.m:
Don't hardcode the names of special preds: use the predicates in
prim_data.m.
Convert to four-space indentation.
browser/declarative_execution.m:
Delete some predicates whose functionality is now in
mdbcomp/prim_data.m.
compiler/hlds_data.m:
Replace the part of du type that says whether a type an enum, which
used to be a bool, with something that also says whether the type is a
dummy type.
Convert to four-space indentation.
compiler/make_tags.m:
Compute the value for the new field of du type definitions.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
Write out the new field of du type definitions.

Modify the data structures we use to create type_ctor_infos to allow
for dummy types.
Convert to four-space indentation.
compiler/type_ctor_info.m:
Modify the code that generates type_ctor_infos to handle dummy types.
compiler/type_util.m:
Provide predicates for recognizing dummy types.
Convert to four-space indentation.
compiler/unify_proc.m:
Generate the unify and compare predicates of dummy types using a new
code scheme that avoids referencing arguments that contain garbage.
When generating code for unifying or comparing other types, ignore
any arguments of function symbols that are dummy types.
Don't use DCG style access predicates.
compiler/higher_order.m:
Specialize the unification and comparison of values of dummy types.
Break up an excessively large predicate, and factor out common code
from the conditions of a chain of if-then-elses.
compiler/llds.m:
For each input and output of a foreign_proc, include a field saying
whether the value is of a dummy type.

and document the restriction.
Add a predicate for creating simple tests.
Add a utility predicate for setting the context of a goal directly.
compiler/modules.m:
Include dummy types interface files, even if they are private to the
module. This is necessary because with the MLDS backend, the generated
code inside the module and outside the module must agree whether a
function returning a value of the type returns a real value or a void
value, and this requires them to agree on whether the type is dummy
or not.
The impact on interface files is minimal, since very few types are
dummy types, and changing a type from a dummy type to a non-dummy type
or vice versa is an ever rarer change.

Provide a representation in the compiler of the trie step for dummy
types.

Change the representation of types in the compiler.
Estimated hours taken: 30 Branches: main Change the representation of types in the compiler. We also add some support for handling kinds, which will be used later when we have a kind system. There are a number of places where kinds are not yet handled correctly -- we assume that all kinds will be `star'. Each of these locations is flagged with a comment that contains "XXX kind inference:". compiler/prog_data.m: Implement the new version of type (type). Change the definition of type_param to be a variable instead of a term, since all parameters must be variables anyway. Implement versions of varset.merge_* which work with tvarsets and produce renamings instead of substitutions. Renamings are more convenient than substitutions because we don't need to know the kinds of type variables in order to build the renaming, and in any case the substitutions shouldn't have anything other than variables in the range so renamings will be more efficient and safe. Define the type of kinds, and provide a couple of utility predicates to operate on them. compiler/prog_io.m: Parse type definition heads as a sym_name and list of type_params, rather than a functor. Handle this change in other predicates. Allow parse errors to be returned by get_with_type/3, and handle these errors. Remove parse_type/2. This predicate didn't do any processing, it just forwarded handling to convert_type/2. compiler/prog_io_typeclass.m: Change type_is_functor_and_vars to handle the new representation of types. In doing so, we retain the old behaviour that pure predicates pass this test, but no other pred or func types. This behaviour is arguably incorrect, but there is little point changing the behaviour at the moment. Instead we should remove these kind of restrictions entirely, but that should be done later. compiler/prog_io_util.m: Provide predicates to both parse and unparse types. We need to unparse types before printing them out, since we do a lot of special case handling when printing out terms and we don't want to duplicate this functionality for types. compiler/module_qual.m: Remove report_invalid_type. We now report ill-formed types during parsing. compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Handle errors from the parsing of type expressions. compiler/prog_out.m: Provide a predicate to convert builtin_types to their string names, and vice-versa. compiler/prog_type.m: Add a bunch of simple tests to use on types which may have kind annotations present. In such cases, types do not have a canonical representation so the simple handling of these tests is not what we want. (Note that these are only required in early phases. The kind annotations -- when they are implemented -- will be removed before type checking.) Consistently handle the application of renamings, substitutions and recursive substitutions to various data structures. compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Implement mercury_output_type, mercury_format_type and mercury_type_to_string. These convert the type to a term before formatting -- the reason for this is so that appropriate parentheses are used when formatting operators. This results in some slight changes to error messages, which are reflected in changes to the expected output files in the tests. Remove the old version of mercury_type_to_string. Change the argument ordering of mercury_format_var to be consistent with mercury_format_type. (Other predicates in this module should probably be changed in a similar way, since this argument ordering is more amenable to higher-order programming. But that can be left for another change.) compiler/type_util.m: Implement type unification. The behaviour is much the same as the previous behaviour, except that we now handle apply/N types properly, and we also allow for kind annotations. Implement an occurs check for types. Remove the example definition of replace_eqv_type. It isn't used and would no longer work anyway even if it would have worked before. Add a tvar_kind_map field to ctor_defn. The functions type_info_type and type_ctor_info_type now return types with `void' as their argument, rather than the type that the type_info or type_ctor_info was for. Remove type_util.real_vars/2, since it no longer does anything different from prog_type.vars/2. Remove the commented out implementation of type_to_ctor_and_args/3. Its implementation is in prog_type.m, and has changed significantly in any case. compiler/add_clause.m: Move parse_purity_annotation/3 to prog_io_util.m. compiler/check_typeclass.m: Remove apply_substitution_to_var_list/3, since we now have predicates in prog_type.m to handle such things. compiler/continuation_info.m: compiler/trace.m: Use prog_type.vars/2 instead of type_util.real_vars/2. The two predicates have the same meaning now since type_infos don't contain any type variables. compiler/hlds_data.m: Add tvar_kind_map fields to hlds_type_defn and hlds_class_defn. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Add a tvar_kind_map field to pred_info. compiler/polymorphism.m: Add a tvar_kind_map field to poly_info. Remove unify_corresponding_types, which is no longer used. compiler/hlds_out.m: Use mercury_output_type/5 instead of term_io__write_term/4 and mercury_output_term/5. compiler/post_typecheck.m: Build the void substitution directly rather than building intermediate lists. compiler/recompilation.version.m: Use term__list_subsumes instead of type_list_subsumes, which now operates only on types. This follows up on what was suggested in an XXX comment. compiler/typecheck_errors.m: Use unparse_type/2 to format error messages. compiler/typecheck_info.m: Don't export write_type_with_bindings/5. It is no longer used outside of this module. compiler/*.m: Conform to the above changes. library/rtti_implementation.m: Fix a syntax error that went undetected in our previous implementation, and amazingly enough was compiled correctly anyway. library/term.m: Move the versions of term__unify, term__unify_list and term__list_subsumes that were implemented specifically for types to here. The version of term_unify that takes a list of bound variables (i.e., variables that should not be bound any further) is used by the subsumption check, which in turn is used by recompilation.version.m. tests/invalid/kind.err_exp: tests/invalid/tc_err1.err_exp: tests/invalid/tc_err2.err_exp: tests/misc_tests/pretty_print_test.exp: Update the expected output of these tests to match what we now do. |
