    the variables that will be put into the closure.

c4dce74bb4 Improve the treatment of promises.
compiler/check_promise.m:
    Fix github issue #50. If a promise is imported from another module,
    do not process it. Processing would require the pred_id/proc_id slots
    in plain_calls to have been filled in by typechecking, but we don't
    invoke the typechecker on imported code.

compiler/assertion.m:
    Improve the documentation of the predicates that test whether
    an assertion falls into a given category of assertion. Provide variants
    of those predicates that work on goals as well as on assert_ids, so later
    we can test whether assertions fall into any of those categories.

    Add an XXX for what I am pretty sure is a bug.

cc9912faa8 Don't import anything in packages.
Packages are modules whose only job is to serve as a container for submodules.
Modules like top_level.m, hlds.m, parse_tree.m and ll_backend.m are packages
in this (informal) sense.

Besides the include_module declarations for their submodules, most of the
packages in the compiler used to import some modules, mostly other packages
whose component modules their submodules may need. For example, ll_backend.m
used to import parse_tree.m. This meant that modules in the ll_backend package
did not have to import parse_tree.m before importing modules in the parse_tree
package.

However, this had a price. When we add a new module to the parse_tree package,
parse_tree.int would change, and this would require the recompilation of ALL
the modules in the ll_backend package, even the ones that did NOT import ANY
of the modules in the parse_tree package.

This happened even at one remove. Pretty much all modules in every one
of the backend have to import one or more modules in the hlds package,
and they therefore have import hlds.m. Since hlds.m imported transform_hlds.m,
any addition of a new middle pass to the transform_hlds package required
the recompilation of all backend modules, even in the usual case of the two
having nothing to do with each other.

This diff removes all import_module declarations from the packages,
and replaces them with import_module declarations in the modules that need
them. This includes only a SUBSET of their child modules and of the non-child
modules that import them.

c34f6dd4e8 Let the compiler bootstrap in decldebug grades again.
The big diff that replaced the item list with proper parse trees included code
that the compiler couldn't handle in decldebug grades, aborting with a message
about liveness mismatch between different switch arms. The problem occurred
when compiling this code in generate_missing_start_section_warning_int,
which is one arm of a switch on !.MissingStartSectionWarning:

    !.MissingStartSectionWarning =
        have_not_given_missing_section_start_warning,
    !:MissingStartSectionWarning =
        have_given_missing_section_start_warning,
    Pieces = [invis_order_default_start(1), ...],
    _Spec = error_spec(severity_error, phase_term_to_parse_tree,
        [simple_msg(Context, [always(Pieces)])])

The problem was liveness.m's handling of the from_ground_term_construct
scope that is generated for the assigmnet of the ground term to Pieces.

compiler/liveness.m:
    During the first pass through the procedure body, the liveness pass,
    replace with the empty conjunction any from_ground_term_construct scopes
    that construct terms to assign to dead variables. This prevents the
    second pass, the deadness pass, from including the dead variable
    (Pieces in the above example, after the assignment to _Spec was
    optimized away by earlier passes) in the set of variables that
    have been seen, since obviously, they won't be seen in the other arms.
    This inclusion was the cause of the assertion failure that led to
    the compiler abort.

    Improve the existing debugging infrastructure to help find bugs like this,
    by printing out what the selected procedure's body looks like before
    as well as after the initial requantification.

compiler/quantification.m:
    Replace from_ground_term_construct scopes whose ground term is assigned
    to a dead variable with empty conjunctions, so that the compiler passes
    between the first quantification after mode checking and the liveness
    pass also see a smaller HLDS.

    Implement an unrelated improvement whose possibility I discovered when
    investigating why a version of the test case *without* the from_ground_term
    scope wasn't getting the abort. When processing unifications, build up the
    set of variables in the unification directly, not by recording a bunch
    of maybe(somethings)s and then processing the somethings, if they existed,
    later. This yields code that is shorter, simpler *and* faster.

tests/valid/liveness_disagree.m:
    A new test case for this bug. It is a cut-down version of
    generate_missing_start_section_warning_int.

    them, I got errors about excessive overloading.

    Do some other cleanups as well.

7d20d3e623 Simplify the representation of clauses.
compiler/hlds_clauses.m:
    Instead of representing the list of clauses as either a forward list,
    a reversed list or both, represent it as just a cord. It can be added
    to in O(1) time, and can be flattened to a list in O(N) time, like
    the previous representation, but unlike the previous representation,
    the flattened version can be appended to again, and it never duplicates
    the list.

    Provide three separate predicates for getting the clause list, and one
    for getting just the first clause, for use in different circumstances.
    These replace two previous predicates.

f2043fc9bd Replace the item list with more structured ASTs.
The parts of the compiler that run before the HLDS is constructed used to use
a raw list of items to represent source files (.m), interface files (.int0,
.int3, .int2 and .int) and optimization files (.opt, and .trans_opt).
These lists had structure, but this structure was implicit, not explicit,
and its invariants were never really documented.

This diff changes that. It replaces the item list with FIVE separate types.

Three of these each represent the unprocessed content of one file:

- parse_tree_int represents the contents of one interface file;
- parse_tree_opt represents the contents of one optimization file;
- parse_tree_src represents the contents of one source file.

Two of these each represent the processed contents of one or more files:

- raw_compilation_unit represents the contents of one module in a source file.
  (The source file may contain several nested modules; the compilation unit
  represents just one.)
- aug_compilation_unit represents the contents of one module in a source file,
  just like raw_compilation_unit, but it is augmented with the contents of the
  interface and optimization files of the other modules imported (directly or
  indirectly) by the original module.

These five separate concepts all used to be represented by the same type,
list(item), but different invariants applied to the structure of those lists.
The most important of those invariants at least are now explicit in the types.
I think it is entirely possible that there are other invariants I haven't
discovered and documented (for example, .int3 files must have stricter
invariants on what can appear in them than .int files), but discovering
and documenting these should be MUCH easier after this change.

I have marked many further opportunities for improvements with "XXX ITEM_LIST".
Some of these include moving code between modules, and the creation of new
modules. However, I have left acting on those XXXs until later, in order to
keep the size of this diff down as much as possible, for easier reviewing.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Define the five new AST types described above, and utility predicates
    that operate on them.

    In the rest of this change, I tried, as much as possible, to change
    predicates that used to take item lists as arguments to make them change
    one of these types instead. In many cases, this required putting
    the argument lists of those predicates into a more consistent order.
    (Often, predicates that operated on the contents of the module
    took the name of the module and the list of items in the module
    not just as separate arguments, but as separate arguments that
    weren't even next to each other.)

    Define types that identify the different kinds of interface and
    optimization files (.int, .int2 etc). These replace the string suffixes
    we used to use to identify file types. Predicates that used to take strings
    representing suffixes as arguments now have to specify whether they can
    handle all these file types (source, interface and optimization),
    or just (e.g.) all interface file types.

    We used to have items corresponding to `:- module' and `:- end_module'.
    Delete these; this information is now implicit in the structure of the
    relevant AST. The parser handles the corresponding terms as markers,
    not items; these markers are live only during parsing.

    We used to have module_defns corresponding to `:- interface' and
    `:- implementation'. Delete these; this information is now also implicit
    in the structure of the relevant AST. Delete also, for the same reason,
    the module_defns used to mark the starts of sublists in the overall lists
    of items whose items came from the interface files or optimization files
    of other modules. The former are now markers during parsing. The latter
    are never parsed, but are created directly, after parsing has been done.

    Delete the pragma type for `:- pragma source_file'. This is never
    needed later; it is now a marker during parsing.

    Change the internal representation of `:- import' and `:- use'.
    It used to store a list of module names, but that list was an actual list
    only during parsing; after that, it always had exactly one element.
    It now stores one module name, and the parser has a mechanism to convert
    one read-in term to more than one item, for use with terms such as
    `:- import_module a, b'.

    Delete the internal representation of `:- export', which was never
    implemented, since if it IS ever implemented, it will almost certainly
    be in a different form, which will need different support.

    Document some further opportunities for simplification, later.
    (This diff is already more than big enough.)

compiler/prog_io_item.m:
    Rewrite the top-level part of this module. Instead of returning an item
    for every parsed term, distinguish between parsing items that end up
    in item lists inside ASTs, and parsing markers that end up creating
    the STRUCTURE of those ASTs.

compiler/prog_io.m:
    Rewrite the meat of this module. Instead of reading in a simple item list,
    we now have to read in three different parse trees with three different
    grammars, each of which is more complex than a simple list.

compiler/read_modules.m:
    We used to have a map that mapped file names to the contents of those
    files. We now need three separate maps, for interface files, optimization
    files and source files, due to their separate types.
    (We don't actually use the map for optimization files, which seems
    to be a potential performance bug. The root cause of that problem
    us that while intermod.m and the grab_*modules part of modules.m do
    similar jobs, they don't use the same mechanisms.)

    Replace the read_module predicate with the predicates read_module_src
    and read_module_int, since these now return different types.

    To avoid having to create AST-type-specialized variants of
    read_module_ignore_errors and read_module_if_changed, give each of
    read_module_{src,int} arguments that optionally tell them to ignore errors
    and/or to read the module only if changed (though the "and" part of
    "and/or" should not be needed.) These options already existed, but
    they weren't exported.

compiler/timestamp.m:
    Define the type we use for this option in read_modules.

compiler/status.m:
    New module, containing mostly

    - stuff carved out of hlds_pred.m, which defines the import_status type,
      and the predicates that operate on it;
    - stuff carved out of make_hlds_passes.m, which defines the item_status
      type and the predicates that operate on that; and
    - stuff carved out prog_data.m, which defines the section (now
      module_section) and import_locn types.

    It also contains the new section kinds we now use to represent item blocks
    that were imported from interface and optimization files.

compiler/parse_tree.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
    Add status.m to the parse_tree package.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/prog_data.m:
    Remove the stuff now in status.m.

compiler/error_util.m:
    Provide a mechanism to control the order of messages with respect to
    ALL other messages, not just those that also specify ordering.

compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
    Provide predicates for printing out parse_tree_* and *_compilation_unit,
    since printing out a simple item list is no longer enough for debugging.

    Pretty-print type definitions nicely.

    Replace a boolean with a purpose-specific enum.

compiler/modules.m:
    Rewrite virtually all this module to make it work on the new AST
    representations. Generate more detailed error messages for duplicate
    module inclusions. Note lots of possibilities for further improvements,
    including in the documentation. Mark places I am still not sure about,
    especially places where I am not sure *why* the code is doing
    what it is doing.

compiler/module_imports.m:
    This module stores the data structure in which we accumulate the stuff
    imported into a compilation unit, i.e. it is in these data structures
    that a raw_compilation_unit becomes an aug_compilation_unit. Modify
    the data structure and the predicates that operate on it to work on the
    new AST representations, not on an (apparently) simple list of items.

    Avoid ambiguities by adding a prefix to field names.

    Add some convenience predicates.

compiler/module_qual.m:
    Perform module qualification on both raw lists of items (for use when
    generating .int3 files) but also on item blocks (for use pretty much
    in every other situation).

    Generate warnings about module imports that are unnecessarily in the
    module interface using the module's context (the context of the `:- module'
    declaration), not line 1 of the relevant file.

compiler/prog_io_error.m:
    Split some error categories more finely, since some error kinds here
    actually used to be reported for more than one distinct situation.

compiler/prog_io_util.m:
    Provide utility predicates that operate on nonempty lists.

compiler/recompilation.version.m:
    Make the comparison of the old and new contents of the interface file
    work on two parse_tree_ints, not on two raw sequences of items.

    Delete a boolean option that was always `yes', never 'no'.

compiler/recompilation.m:
    Turn some functions into predicates to allow the use of state variable
    notation.

    Avoid ambiguities by adding a prefix to field names.

compiler/write_module_interface_files.m:
    Besides updating the code in this module to work on the new parse tree
    representations, also use cords instead of reversed lists in several cases.
    Note many possibilities for further improvements.

library/list.m:
    Move the type one_or_more here from the compiler directory, since
    we now use it in more than one compiler module, and this is its natural
    home.

mdbcomp/sym_name.m:
    Rename "match_sym_name" to "partial_sym_name_matches_full", since this
    better describes its job.

    Add a det version of sym_name_get_module_name.

b86f973fa9 Allow the use of Mercury abstract machine float registers for passing
Branches: main

Allow the use of Mercury abstract machine float registers for passing
double-precision float arguments in higher order calls.

In of itself this is not so useful for typical Mercury code.  However, as
all non-local procedures are potentially the targets of higher order calls,
without this change first order calls to non-local procedures could not use
float registers either.  That is the actual motivation for this change.

The basic mechanism is straightforward.  As before, do_call_closure_* is
invoked to place the closure's hidden arguments into r1, ..., rN, and extra
input arguments shifted into rN+1, etc.  With float registers, extra input
arguments may also be in f1, f2, etc. and the closure may also have hidden
float arguments.  Optimising for calls, we order the closure's hidden
arguments so that all float register arguments come after all regular
register arguments in the vector.  Having the arguments out of order does
complicate code which needs to deconstruct closures, but that is not so
important.

Polymorphism complicates things.  A closure with type pred(float) may be
passed to a procedure expecting pred(T).  Due to the `float' argument type,
the closure expects its argument in a float register.  But when passed to the
procedure, the polymorphic argument type means it would be called with the
argument in a regular register.

Higher-order insts already contain information about the calling convention,
without which a higher-order term cannot be called.  We extend higher-order
insts to include information about the register class required for each
argument.  For example, we can distinguish between:

	pred(in) is semidet /* arg regs: [reg_f] */
and
	pred(in) is semidet /* arg regs: [reg_r] */

Using this information, we can create a wrapper around a higher-order
variable if it appears in a context requiring a different calling convention.
We do this in a new HLDS pass, called float_regs.m.

Note: Mercury code has a tendency to lose insts for higher-order terms, then
"recover" them by hacky means.  The float_regs pass depends on higher-order
insts; it is impossible to create a wrapper for a procedure without knowing
how to call it.  The float_regs pass will report errors which we otherwise
accepted, due to higher-order insts being unavailable.  It should be possible
for the user to adjust the code to satisfy the pass, though the user may not
understand why it should be necessary.  In most cases, it probably really
*is* unnecessary.  We may be able to make the float_regs pass more tolerant
of missing higher-order insts in the future.

Class method calls do not use float registers because I didn't want to deal
with them yet.

	passed via regular registers despite their types.

	Add a field to `pred_sub_info' to record the original unsubstituted

	This is reused by float_regs.m to create wrapper closures.

	Add an argument to `expand_lambda' to set the reg_r_headvars field on
	the newly created procedure.

	Delete some unused fields from `lambda_info'.

compiler/arg_info.m:
	Make `generate_proc_arg_info' no longer always use regular registers
	for calls to exported procedures.  Do always use regular registers for
	class methods calls.

	Add a version of `make_arg_infos' which takes an explicit list of
	argument registers.  Rename the previous version.

	Add `generic_call_arg_reg_types' to return the argument registers
	for a generic call.

	Add a version of `compute_in_and_out_vars' which additionally separates
	arguments for float and regular registers.

	Use float registers for argument passing in higher-order calls, as
	directed by the new field in `generic_call'.

compiler/code_util.m:
	Add a function to encode the number of regular and float register

	Move float register arguments to the end of a closure's hidden

	Count hidden regular and float register arguments separately, but
	encode them in the same word in the closure.  This is preferable to
	using two words because it reduces the differences between grades
	with and without float registers present.

	Disable generating code which creates a closure from an existing
	closure, if float registers exist.  That code does not understand the
	reordered hidden arguments vector yet.

compiler/continuation_info.m:
	Replace an argument's type_info in the closure layout if the argument

d00ea69529 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.

	Replace almost all occurrences of set(prog_var) with set_of_progvar.

b3fa535100 A rewrite of the state variable transformation from the ground up.
Estimated hours taken: 60
Branches: main

A rewrite of the state variable transformation from the ground up.

The initial aim was to avoid situations (encountered in the g12 project)
in which the old state variable transformation generated code that
did not satisfy the mode checker, due to unnecessary unifications.
The new system tries hard to minimize the number of unifications added to the
program. It does this by relying extensively on the idea that in a branched
structure such as an disjunction, if two branches both update the same state
variable, and the variables representing the last state of the state variable
in the two branches are (say) X and Y, and we pick X to represent the current
state after the disjunction, then we don't have to put the assignment X := Y
into the second branch; instead, we can RENAME Y to X in that branch.
To avoid renaming a goal several times (for itself, for its parent, for its
grandparent etc), we delay all renamings until the end, when we do it all
in one traversal.

The old state var system was opaque and hard to understand, partly because
its basic operations did different things in different contexts. The new system
is a much more direct expression of the intuitive meaning of state variables;
it keeps track of their state much as the programmer writing the original code
would. It should therefore be significantly easier to understand and to modify
in the future.

The new system can also detect more kinds of errors in the use of state
variables. For example it can discover that some branches of a disjunction or
if-then-else set the initial value of a state variable and some do not.
This is ok if the non-setting-branch cannot succeed; if it can, then it is
a bug. We therefore generate messages about such branches, but print them
only if mode analysis finds a bug in the procedure, since in that case,
the lack of initialization may be the cause of the bug.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
	Replaced an old example that didn't know what it was talking about,
	and thoroughly confused the issue of what is legal use of state
	variables and what is not.

compiler/state_var.m:
	Rewrite this module along the lines mentioned above.

compiler/options.m:
	Add two new options. One, warn-state-var-shadowing, controls whether
	we generate warnings for one state var shadowing another (which
	G12 has lots of). The other, --allow-defn-for-builtins, is for
	developers only; it is needed to bootstrap changes that add new
	builtins. I needed this for a form of the state variable transformation
	that used calls to a new builtin predicate to copy the values of state
	variables in branches that did not modify them, even though other
	branches did. I ultimately used unifications to do this copying,
	for reasons documented in state_var.m.

compiler/add_clause.m:
compiler/add_pragma.m:
	Respect the new --allow-defn-for-builtins option.
	(Previously, we changed the code that now looks up the value of the
	option.)

doc/user_guide.texi:
	Document the --warn-state-var-shadowing option.

	Fix some old documentation about dump options.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Fix an old oversight: list the predicates in table_builtin.m that may
	have calls introduced to them by table_gen.m.

compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
compiler/field_access.m:
compiler/add_clause.m:
compiler/goal_expr_to_goal.m:
	Together with state_var.m, these modules contain the transformation
	from the parse tree to the HLDS. Since the change to state_var.m
	involves significant changes in its interface (such as separating out
	the persistent and location-dependent aspects of the information needed
	by the state variable transformation), and needing callbacks at
	different points than the old transformation, these modules had to
	change extensively as well to conform.

	goal_expr_to_goal.m is a new module carved out of add_clause.m.
	It deserves a module of its own because its code has a significantly
	different purpose than add_clause.m. The two separate modules each
	have much better cohesion than the old conjoined module did.

	In superhomogeneous.m, replace two predicates that did the same thing
	with one predicate.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html.m:
	Mention the new module.

	variable transformation needs.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add an extra piece of information to clauses and proc_infos:
	a list of informational messages generated by the state variable
	transformation about some branches of branched goals not giving initial
	values to some state variables, while other branches do.

	The state variable transformation fills in this field in clauses
	where relevant.

compiler/clause_to_proc.m:
	Copy this list of messages from clauses to proc_infos.

compiler/modes.m:
	When generating an error message for a procedure, include this list
	of messages from the state var transformation in the output.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Add a dump alias for debugging the state var transformation.

compiler/hlds_out_goal.m:
	Add a predicate that is useful in trace messages when debugging
	the compiler.

compiler/hlds_out_pred.m:
	Print goal path and goal id information in clauses as well as
	proc_infos, since the state var transformation now uses goal ids.

compiler/prog_item.m:
	In lists of quantified vars in scope headers, separate out the vars
	introduced as !S from those introduced as !.S and !:S. This makes it
	easier for the state var transformation to handle them.

	Document that we expect lists of quantified variables and state
	variables to contain no duplicates. The state var transformation
	is slightly simpler if we impose this requirement, and quantifying
	a variable twice in the same scope does not make sense, and is
	therefore almost certainly an error.

	Generate error messages when a variable or state variable IS
	listed twice in the same quantification list.

c509c49bdc Add a mechanism for generating warnings when the various clauses of a predicate
Estimated hours taken: 24
Branches: main

Add a mechanism for generating warnings when the various clauses of a predicate
or function are not contiguous.

This mechanism consists of two options:

	--warn-non-contiguous-clauses
	--warn-non-contiguous-foreign-procs

The first option generates warnings when the Mercury clauses of a predicate
or function are not contiguous, but it ignores any foreign_procs of that
predicate or function, and thus allows these to be away from the Mercury
clauses and each other. This option is enabled by default.

The second option generating warnings unless both the Mercury clauses and
all the foreign_procs of the predicate or function are all contiguous.
This option is not enabled by default, because many library modules
group foreign_procs not by predicate, but by foreign language. (All C foreign
procs for a group of predicates, then all the Java foreign procs for that group
of predicates, etc.)

compiler/hlds_clauses.m:
	Store, next to the representation of each clause list, information
	about the locations (item numbers and context) of the clauses.
	We store two versions of this information, one version for each option.

	Make the predicates that access the clause list access the location
	information as well, to ensure that any code that adds clauses also
	records their location.

	Add a predicate that tests for non-contiguity.

	Add a specific type to represent the modes that a clause applies to.
	This replaces the error-prone scheme we used to use that represented
	the notion "this clause applies to all modes" with an empty list of
	modes. This allows us to remove the code in add_pragma.m that used
	to replace these empty lists with the list of actual modes they
	represented.

	Change the prefix on the fields of clauses_info to avoid ambiguities.
	Add a prefix to the names of the function symbols of the clauses_rep
	type to avoid ambiguities.

compiler/add_clause.m:
compiler/add_pragma.m:
	When adding Mercury clauses and pragma foreign_procs to a predicate or
	function, record the location of the clause or foreign_procs. We do so
	even if the clause or foreign_proc is overridden by another. For
	example, when compiling to C, a Mercury clause overrides an Erlang
	foreign_proc, and a C foreign_proc overrides a Mercury clause.

	Fix an old bug where a foreign_proc that should override Mercury
	clauses overrode only one Mercury clause, and left the others
	in the predicate, to yield a disjunction with some Mercury disjuncts
	and a foreign_proc disjunct. This disjunction would then yield
	determinism errors if it had outputs.

	The new code that fixes the bug has a much more direct implicit
	correctness argument, and should be significantly easier to understand.
	It also avoids doing unnecessary work. (The old code could make a
	decision to ignore a clause, yet still proceed to transform it,
	just to ignore the result of the transformation.)

d69ba1a1f0 Include the type_ctor in cons_ids for user-defined types.
Estimated hours taken: 32
Branches: main

Include the type_ctor in cons_ids for user-defined types. The intention is
two-fold:

- It prepares for a future in which we allow more than one function symbol to
  with the same name to be defined in a module.

- It makes the HLDS code more self-contained. In many places, processing
  construction and deconstruction unifications required knowing which type
  the cons_id belongs to, but until now, code couldn't know that unless it
  kept track of the type of the variable unified with the cons_id.

With this diff, user-defined cons_ids are represented as

	cons(SymName, Arity, TypeCtor)

The last field is filled in during post-typecheck. After that time, any module
qualification in the SymName (which may initially be partial) is redundant,
since it is also available in the TypeCtor.

In the future, we could make all those SymNames be just unqualified(_) at that
time. We could also replace the current maps in HLDS type definitions with
full cons_id keys with just name/arity keys (since the module qualifier is a
given for any given type definition), we could also support partially
qualified cons_ids in source code using a map from name/arity pairs to a list
of all the type_ctors that have function symbols with that name/arity, instead
of our current practice of inserting all possible partially module qualified
version of every cons_id into a single giant table, and we could do the same
thing with the field names table.

This diff also separates tuples out from user-defined types, since in many
respects they are different (they don't have a single type_ctor, for starters).
It also separates out character constants, since they were alreay treated
specially in most places, though not in some places where they *ought* to
have been treated specially. Take the opportunity to give some other cons_ids
better names.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Make the change described above, and document it.

	Put the implementations of the predicates declared in each part
	of this module next to the declarations, instead of keeping all the
	code until the very end (where it was usually far from their
	declarations).

	Remove three predicates with identical definitions from inst_match.m,
	inst_util.m and mode_constraints.m, and put the common definition
	in prog_data.m.

library/term_io.m:
	Add a new predicate that is basically a reversible version of
	the existing function espaced_char, since the definition of char_consts
	needs reversibilty.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	For functors of user-defined types, record their type_ctor. For tuples
	and char constants, record them as such.

compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
compiler/parse_tree.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	New module to centralize knowledge about builtin types, specially
	handled library types, and their function symbols. Previously,
	the stuff now in this module used to be in several different places,
	including prog_type.m and stm_expand.m, and some of it was duplicated.

	Add some predicates now needed by builtin_lib_types.m.

	Factor out some duplicated code.

cc8923b7f7 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.  The reason for this is given
in try_expand.m.


library/ops.m:
	Add three new operators: try, catch, catch_any.

library/exception.m:
	Add forwarding predicates so that code generated by the try goal
	transformation doesn't need to import `univ'.

compiler/prog_item.m:
	Add representations of try goals to parse tree.

	Parse try goals.

	Call the try_expand pass near the end of the front-end pass.

compiler/module_imports.m:
	Implicitly import `exception' if a `try' goal is seen.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Conform to addition of try goals in HLDS.  Make it not wrap a commit
	scope around the intermediate try goal (as it might if there are no
	outputs) as it is inappropriate.

edda5238a1 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.

5ad9a27793 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

a00596c283 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/file_util.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.

	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.

	both human-written and machine-written (such as interface and
	optimization files).

7460aadbf8 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.  This is not currently required for anything.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
	Document the new feature, and update existing documentation on
	solver types and negated contexts.

tests/valid/Mmakefile:
tests/valid/ho_any_inst.m:
	New test case for some valid code using higher-order any insts.

tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
tests/invalid/ho_any_inst.err_exp:
tests/invalid/ho_any_inst.m:
	New test case for some illegal code.

tests/invalid/anys_in_negated_contexts.err_exp:
	Update expected error message for this test case.  We now report
	that the expression should be `any', rather than impure.

compiler/*.m:
	Handle the new fields.

cc88711d63 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.

Estimated hours taken: 5
Branches: main

Fix the failure of the invalid/modes_erroneous test case, whose symptom was
an error message about a "mode error in unification of `X' and `X'".
The root cause of the problem was that the renaming of head variables
computed by headvar_names.m was being applied too early, during typechecking.
The fix is to apply it after the frontend (all the passes that can generate
error messages).

To avoid slowdowns from larger pred_infos, this diff also moves the least
frequently used fields of pred_infos to a subterm. (Proc_infos already had
a subterm.) This leads to an almost 3% speedup.

compiler/headvar_names.m:
	Store the renaming instead of applying it.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Apply the renaming in invocations after the front end, since doing so
	may allow some excess assignments to be eliminated.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add fields to pred_infos and proc_infos for the renaming.

	Move the least frequently used fields of pred_infos into a
	pred_sub_info.

	Some fields of pred_infos were being accessed using predicates
	that did not follow our naming conventions, and some were accessed
	using field access functions that are now inappropriate; fix them all.

	Require the caller to provide the renaming when creating new pred_infos
	and proc_infos. This is to force the compiler components that do this
	to propagate the renaming fields of the original predicates and/or
	procedures to their modified versions.

	Convert that some old code that used if-then-elses to use switches
	instead.

ba93a52fe7 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?

5eee81204e A big step towards cleaning up the way we handle errors.
Estimated hours taken: 28
Branches: main

A big step towards cleaning up the way we handle errors. The main changes are

- the provision, in error_util.m, of a mechanism for completely specifying
  everything to do with a single error in one data structure,

- the conversion of typecheck_errors.m from using io.write_string to
  using this new capability,

- the conversion of mode_errors.m and det_report.m from using
  write_error_pieces to using this new capability, and

- consistently using the quoting style `symname'/N instead of `symname/N'
  in error_util and hlds_error_util (previously, error_util used the former
  but hlds_error_util used the latter).

This diff sets up later diffs which will collect all error specifications
in a central place and print them all at once, in order.

compiler/error_util.m:
	The new type error_spec, which completely specifies an error.
	An error_spec may have multiple components with different contexts
	and may have parts which are printed only under certain conditions,
	e.g. a given option being set. Each error_spec has a severity
	and also records which phase found the error.

	The new predicate write_error_spec takes care of updates of the exit
	status for errors and (if --halt-at-warn is set) for warnings. It also
	takes care of setting the flag that calls for the reminder about -E
	at the end.

	This diff also makes it simpler to use the ability to print arbitrary
	output. It adds the ability to include integers in messages directly,
	and the ability to create blank lines. It renames some function symbols
	to avoid ambiguities.

	Move a predicate that only used by typecheck_errors.m to that file.

compiler/hlds_error_util.m:
	Switch to the `symname'/N quoting style for describing predicates and
	procedures.

compiler/prog_util.m:
	Switch to the `symname'/N quoting style for describing
	sym_name_and_arity.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Provide a predicate to increment the number of errors not by one,
	but by the number of errors printed by write_error_spec.

	Fix some documentation rot.

compiler/typecheck_errors.m:
	Use write_error_spec instead of io.write_strings to print error
	messages. In several cases, improve the formatting of the messages
	printed.

	Mark a number of places where we don't (yet) update the number of
	errors in the module_info correctly.

	Rename the checkpoint predicate to avoid potential ambiguity with
	similar predicates in e.g. mode_info.

compiler/typecheck_info.m:
	Group the code for writing stuff out together in one bunch. For each
	such predicate, create another that returns a list of format components
	instead of doing I/O directly.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Move the code for writing inference messages here from
	typecheck_errors.m, since these messages aren't errors.

compiler/mode_errors.m:
compiler/det_report.m:
	Use write_error_spec instead of write_error_pieces. In the case of
	mode_errors.m, this means we now get correct the set of circumstances
	in which we set the flag that calls for the reminder about -E.

compiler/add_pragma.m:
compiler/add_type.m:
	Convert some code that used to use write_error_pieces to print error
	messages to use write_error_spec instead.

compiler/assertion.m:
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	Assertion.m used to contain some code to check for assertions in the
	interface that mention predicates that are not exported. Move most
	of this code to post_typecheck.m (which is where this code used to be
	called from). One small part, which is a test for a particular property
	of import_statuses, is moved to hlds_pred.m to be with all the other
	similar tests of import_statuses.

2b2f3d3cbe 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").

9d23d8e2e7 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.

	Eliminate the practice of using the naming scheme Body0 and Body
	to refer to values of different types (prog_item.goal and hlds_goal
	respectively).

	Use error_util for some error messages.

library/private_builtin.m:
	Add the predicates referred to by the transformation in add_clause.m.

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Do not print error messages about missing clauses if some errors have
	been detected previously.

compiler/purity.m:
	Instead of just computing purity, compute (and record) also whether
	a goal contains a trace goal. However, treat trace goals as pure.

compiler/mode_info.m:
	Add trace goals as a reason for locking variables.

	Rename some function symbols to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/modes.m:
	When analyzing trace goal scopes, lock the scope's nonlocal variables
	to prevent them from being further instantiated.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Insist on the code in trace goal scopes being det or cc_multi.

compiler/det_report.m:
	Generate the error message if the code in a trace goal scope isn't det
	or cc_multi.

compiler/simplify.m:
	At the end of the front end, eliminate trace goal scopes if their
	compile-time condition is false. Transform trace goals with runtime
	conditions as described at the top.

	Treat goals that contain trace goals as if they were impure when
	considering whether to optimize them away.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Tell simplify when it is being invoked at the end of the front end.

	Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/trace_params.m:
	Provide the predicates simplify.m need to be able to evaluate the trace
	goal conditions regarding trace levels.

compiler/trace.m:
compiler/trace_gen.m:

Move the all-solutions predicates from the library module std_util into their

Move semidet_fail, semidet_succeed, cc_multi_equal and dynamic cast from
std_util.m into builtin.m.

Add some more utility functions for performing determinism or purity casts.
(The later are primarily intended for use by solver implementors.)

	Move the all-solutions predicates into their own module, solutions.m.
	For now there are (obsolete) forwarding predicates from this module to
	the new one.  The forwarding predicates will be included in the
	upcoming 0.13 release and then removed in later versions.

	Move semidet_succeed, semidet_fail, cc_multi_equal and dynamic_cast

library/solutions.m:
	New file.  This is the new home for the all-solutions predicates.
	This is pretty much cut and pasted from std_util (with module
	qualifiers updated accordingly).  I've rearranged the code in a more

library/builtin.m:
	Move semidet_fail/0, semidet_succeed/0, cc_multi_equal/2 and
	dynamic_cast/2 to this module.

	Add semidet_true/0 and semidet_false/0 as synonyms for semidet_fail/0

5b8f96f61d 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).

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.

Estimated hours taken: 8
Branches: main

Improve the error messages generated for determinism errors involving committed
choice contexts. Previously, we printed a message to the effect that e.g.
a cc pred is called in context that requires all solutions, but we didn't say
*why* the context requires all solutions. We now keep track of all the goals
to the right that could fail, since it is these goals that may reject the first
solution of a committed choice goal.

The motivation for this diff was the fact that I found that locating the
failing goal can be very difficult if the conjunction to the right is
a couple of hundred lines long. This would have been a nontrivial problem,
since (a) unifications involving values of user-defined types are committed
choice goals, and (b) we can expect uses of user-defined types to increase.
