307b1dc148 Split up error_util.m into five modules.
compiler/error_spec.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that defines
    the error_spec type, and some functions that can help construct pieces
    of error_specs. Most modules of the compiler that deal with errors
    will need to import only this part of the old error_util.m.

    This change also renames the format_component type to format_piece,
    which matches our long-standing naming convention for variables containing
    (lists of) values of this type.

compiler/write_error_spec.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that
    writes out error specs, and converts them to strings.

    This diff marks as obsolete the versions of predicates that
    write out error specs to the current output stream, without
    *explicitly* specifying the intended stream.

compiler/error_sort.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that
    sorts lists of error specs and error msgs.

compiler/error_type_util.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that
    convert types to format_pieces that generate readable output.

compiler/parse_tree.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
    Include and document the new modules.

compiler/error_util.m:
    The code remaining in the original error_util.m consists of
    general utility predicates and functions that don't fit into
    any of the modules above.

    Delete an unneeded pair of I/O states from the argument list
    of a predicate.

compiler/file_util.m:
    Move the unable_to_open_file predicate here from error_util.m,
    since it belongs here. Mark another predicate that writes
    to the current output stream as obsolete.

compiler/hlds_error_util.m:
    Mark two predicates that wrote out error_spec to the current output
    stream as obsolete, and add versions that take an explicit output stream.

compiler/Mercury.options:
    Compile the modules that call the newly obsoleted predicates
    with --no-warn-obsolete, for the time being.

compiler/*.m:
    Conform to the changes above, mostly by updating import_module
    declarations, and renaming format_component to format_piece.

1927c8ee21 Separate always_treat_as_first from treat_as_first.
compiler/error_util.m:
    The internal operation of formatting error messages requires knowing
    whether an error_msg should be treated as the first message, or not.
    (First messages get indented 1 space; other messages get indented by 3.)
    We use the treat_at_first type for this.

    In the past, we also used this type in error_msgs themselves, but there,
    one of the alternatives of the type, do_not_treat_as_first, is misleading.
    Such messages will in fact be treated as first if they are in fact
    the first error_msg in an error_spec, which happens quite frequently,
    since *most* error_specs contain only one error_msg.

    This diff therefore defines a new type, always_treat_as_first,
    whose two values have names that *accurately* reflect their meaning:
    always_treat_as_first, and treat_based_on_posn. Make all code outside
    error_util.m itself use this type; restrict the use of the treat_as_first
    type to just the code that does error message formatting.

9789375cc5 Make pre-HLDS passes use file-kind-specific parse trees.
Replacing item blocks file-kind-specific kinds of section markers with
file-kind-specific parse trees has several benefits.

- It allows us to encode the structural invariants of each kind of file
  we read in within the type of its representation. This makes the detection
  of any accidental violations of those invariants trivial.

- Since each file-kind-specific parse tree has separate lists for separate
  kinds of items, code that wants to operate on one or a few kinds of items
  can just operate on those kinds of items, without having to traverse
  item blocks containing many other kinds of items as well. The most
  important consequence of this is not the improved efficiency, though
  that is nice, but the increased clarity of the code.

- The new design is much more flexible. For example, it should be possible
  to record that e.g. an interface file we read in as a indirect dependency
  (i.e. a file we read not because its module was imported by the module
  we are compiling, but because its module was imported by *another* imported
  module) should be used *only* for the purpose it was read in for. This should
  avoid situations where deleting an import of A from a module, because it
  is not needed anymore, leads the compiler to generate an error message
  about a missing import of module B. This can happen if (a) module B
  always *should* have been imported, since it is used, but (b) module A's
  import of module B lead to module B's interface being available *without*
  an import of B.

  Specifically, this flexibility should enable us to establish each module's
  .int file as the single source of truth about how values of each type
  defined in that module should be represented. When compiling each source
  file, this approach requires the compiler to read in that module's .int file
  but using only the type_repn items from that .int file, and nothing else.

- By recording a single parse tree for each file we have read, instead of
  a varying number of item blocks, it should be significantly easier to
  derive the contents of .d files directly from the records of those
  parse trees, *without* having to maintain a separate set of fields
  in the module_and_imports structure for that purpose. We could also
  trivially avoid any possibility of inconsistencies between these two
  different sources of truth. (We currently fill in the fields used to
  drive the generation of .d files using two different pieces of code,
  one used for --generate-dependencies and one used for all other invocations,
  and these two *definitely* generate inconsistent results, as the significant
  differences in .d files between (a) just after an invocation of
  --generate-dependencies and (b) just after any other compiler invocation
  can witness.)

This change is big and therefore hard to review. Therefore in many files,
this change adds "XXX CLEANUP" comments to draw attention to places that
have issues that should be fixed, but whose fixes should come later, in
separate diffs.

compiler/module_imports.m:
    The compiler uses the module_and_imports structure defined here
    to go from a raw compilation unit (essentially a module to be compiled)
    to an augmented compilation unit (a raw compilation unit together
    with all the interface and optimization files its compilation needs).
    We used to store the contents of both the source file and of
    the interface and optimization files in the module_and_imports structure
    as item blocks. This diff replaces all those item blocks with
    file-kind-specific parse trees, for the reasons mentioned above.

    Separate out the .int0 files of ancestors modules from the .intN
    files for N>0 of directly imported modules. (Their item blocks
    used to be stored in the same list.)

    Maintain a database of the source, interface and optimization files
    we have read in so far. We use it to avoid reading in interface files
    if we have already read in a file for the same module that contains
    strictly more information (either an interface file with a smaller
    number as a suffix, or the source file itself).

    Shorten some field names.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Define data structures for storing information about include_module,
    import_module and use_module declarations, both in a form that allows
    the representation of possibly erroneous code in actual source files,
    and in checked-and-cleaned-up form which is guaranteed to be free
    of the relevant kinds of errors. Add a block comment at the start
    of the module about the need for this distinction.

    Define parse_tree_module_src, a data structure for representing
    the source code of a single module. This is different from the existing
    parse_tree_src type, which represents the contents of a single source file
    but which may contain *more* than one module, and also different from
    a raw_compilation_unit, which is based on item blocks and is thus
    unable to express to invariants such as "no clauses in the interface".

    Modify the existing parse_tree_intN types to express the distinction
    mentioned just above, and to unify them "culturally", i.e. if they
    store the same information, make them store it using the same types.

    Fix a mistake by allowing promises to appear in .opt files.
    I originally ruled them out because the code that generates .opt files
    does not have any code to write out promises, but some of the predicates
    whose clauses it writes out have goal_type_promise, which means that
    they originated as promises, and get written out as promises.

    Split the existing pragma item kind into three item kinds, which have
    different invariants applying to them.

    - The decl (short for declarative) pragmas give the compiler some
      information, such as that a predicate is obsolete or that we
      want to type specialize some predicate or function, that is in effect
      part of the module's interface. Decl pragmas may appear in module
      interfaces, and the compiler may put them into interface files;
      neither statement is true of the other two kinds of pragmas.

    - The impl (short for implementation) pragmas are named so
      precisely because they may appear only in implementation sections.
      They give the compiler information that is private to that module.
      Examples include foreign_decls, foreign_codes, foreign_procs,
      and promises of clause equivalence, and requests for inlining,
      tabling etc. These will never be put into interface files,
      though some of them can affect the compilation of other modules
      by being included in .opt files.

    - The gen (short for generated) pragmas can never (legally) appear
      in source files at all. They record the results of compiler
      analyses e.g. about which arguments of a predicate are unused,
      or what exceptions a function can throw, and accordingly they
      should only ever occur in compiler-generated interface files.

    Use the new type differences between the three kinds of pragmas
    to encode the above invariants about which kinds of pragmas can appear
    where into the various kinds of parse trees.

    Make the augmented compilation unit, which is computed from
    the final module_and_imports structure, likewise switch from
    storing item blocks to storing the whole parse trees of the
    files that went into its construction. With each such parse tree,
    record *why* we read it, since this controls what permissions
    the source module being compiled has for access to the entities
    in the parse tree.

    Simplify the contains_foreign_code type, since one of three
    function symbols was equivalent to one possible use of another
    function symbol.

    Provide a way to record which method of which class a compiler-generated
    predicate is for. (See hlds_pred.m below.)

    Move the code of almost all utility operations to item_util.m
    (which is imported by many fewer modules than prog_item.m),
    keeping just the most "popular" ones.

compiler/item_util.m:
    Move most of the previously-existing utility operations here from
    prog_item.m, most in a pretty heavily modified form.

    Add a whole bunch of other utility operations that are needed
    in more than one other module.

compiler/convert_parse_tree.m:
    Provide predicates to convert from raw compilation units to
    parse_tree_module_srcs, and vice versa (though the reverse
    shouldn't be needed much longer).

    Update the conversion operations between the general parse_tree_int
    and the specific parse_tree_intN forms for the changes in prog_item.m
    mentioned above. In doing so, use a consistent approach, based on
    new operations in item_util.m, to detect errors such as duplicate
    include_module and import/use_module declarations in all kinds
    of parse trees.

    Enforce the invariants that the types of parse trees of various kinds
    can now express in types, generating error messages for their violations.

    Delete some utility operations that have been moved to item_util.m
    because now they are also needed by other modules.

compiler/grab_modules.m:
    Delete code that did tests on raw compilation units that are now done
    when that raw compilation unit is converted to a parse_tree_module_src.
    Use the results of the checks done during that conversion to decide
    which modules are imported/used and in which module section.

    Record a single reason for why we reading in each interface and
    optimization file. The code of make_hlds_separate_items.m will use
    this reason to set up the appropriate permissions for each item
    in those files.

    Use separate code for handling different kinds of interface and
    optimization files. Using generic traversal code was acceptable economy
    when we used the same data structure for every kind of interface file,
    but now that we *can* express different invariants for different kinds
    of interface and optimization file, we want to execute not just different
    code for each kind of file, but the data structures we want to work on
    are also of different types. Using file-kind-specific code is a bit
    longer, but it is significantly simpler and more robust, and it is
    *much* easier to read and understand.

    Delete the code that separates the parts of the implementation section
    that are exported to submodules, and the part that isn't, since that task
    is now done in make_hlds_separate_items.m.

    Pass a database of the files we have read through the relevant predicates.

    Give some predicates more meaningful names.

compiler/notes/interface_files.html:
    Note a problem with the current operation of grab_modules.

compiler/get_dependencies.m:
    Add operations to gather implicit references to builtin modules
    (which have to be made available even without an explicit import_module
    or use_module declaration) in all kinds of parse trees. These have
    more code overall, but will be at runtime, since we need only look at
    the item kinds that may *have* such implicit references.

    Add a mechanism to record the result of these gathering operations
    in import_and_or_use_maps.

    Give some types, function symbols, predicates and variables
    more meaningful names.

compiler/make_hlds_separate_items.m:
    When we stored the contents of the source module and the
    interface and optimization files we read in to augment it
    in the module_and_imports structure as a bunch of item blocks,
    the job of this module was to separate out the different kinds of items
    in the item blocks, returning a single list of each kind of item,
    with each such item being packaged up with its status (which encodes
    a set of permissions saying what the source module is allowed
    to do with it).

    Now that the module_and_imports structure stores this info in
    file-kind-specific parse trees, all of which have separate lists
    for each kind of item and none of which contain item blocks,
    the job of this module has changed. Now its job is to convert
    the reason why each file was read in into the (one or more) statuses
    that apply to the different kinds of items stored in it, wrap up
    each item with its status, and return the resulting overall list
    of status/item pairs for each kind of item.

compiler/read_modules.m:
    Add predicates that, when reading an interface file, return its contents
    in the tightest possible file-kind-specific parse tree.

    Refine the database of files we have read to allow us to store
    more file-kind-specific parse trees.

    Don't require that files in the database have associated timestamps,
    since in some cases, we read files we can put into the database
    *without* getting their timestamps.

    Allow the database to record that an attempt to read a file failed.

compiler/split_parse_tree_src.m:
    Rearchitect how this module separates out nested submodules from within
    the main module in a file.

    Another of the jobs of this module is to generate error messages for
    when module A includes module B twice, whether via nesting or via
    include_module declarations, with one special exception for the case
    where A's interface contains nested submodule A.B's interface,
    and A's implementation contains nested submodule A.B's implementation.
    The problem ironically was that while it reported duplicate include_module
    declarations as errors, split_parse_tree_src.m also *generated*
    duplicate include_module declarations. Since it replaced each nested
    submodule occurrence with an include_module declaration, in the scenario
    above, it generated two include_module declarations for A.B. Even worse,
    the interface incarnation of submodule A.B could contain
    (the interface of) its own nested submodule A.B.C, while its
    implementation incarnation could contain (the implementation section of)
    A.B.C. Each occurrence of A.B.C would be its only occurrence in the
    including part of its parent A.B, which means local tests for duplicates
    do not work. (I found this out the hard way.)

    The solution we now adopt adds include_module declarations to the
    parents of any submodule only once the parse tree of the entire
    file has been processed, since only then do we know all the
    includer/included relationships among nested modules. Until then,
    we just record such relationships in a database as we discover them,
    reporting duplicates when needed (e.g. when A includes B twice
    *in the same section*), but not reporting duplicates when not needed
    (e.g. when A.B includes A.B.C in *different* sections).

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Add a new type, pf_sym_name_and_arity, that exactly specifies
    a predicate or function. It is a clone of the existing simple_call_id
    type, but its name does NOT imply that the predicate or function
    is being called.

    Add XXXs that call for some other improvements in type names.

compiler/prog_data_foreign.m:
    Give a type, and the operations on that type, a more specific name.

compiler/error_util.m:
    Add an id field to all error_specs, which by convention should be
    filled in with $pred. Print out the value in this field if the compiler
    is invoked with the developer-only option --print-error-spec-id.
    This allows a person debugging the compiler find out where in the code
    an undesired error message is coming from significantly easier
    than was previously possible.

    Most of the modules that have changes only "to conform to the changes
    above" will be for this change. In many cases, the updated code
    will also simplify the creation of the affected error_specs.

    Fix a bug that looked for a phase in only one kind of error_spec.

    Add some utility operations needed by other parts of this change.

    Delete a previously internal function that has been moved to
    mdbcomp/prim_data.m to make it accessible in other modules as well.

compiler/Mercury.options:
    Ask the compiler to warn about dead predicates in every module
    touched by this change (at least in one its earlier versions).

compiler/add_foreign_enum.m:
    Replace a check for an inappropriately placed foreign_enum declaration
    with a sanity check, since with this diff, the error should be caught
    earlier.

compiler/add_mutable_aux_preds.m:
    Delete a check for an inappropriately placed mutable declaration,
    since with this diff, the error should be caught earlier.

compiler/add_pragma.m:
    Instead of adding pass2 and pass3 pragmas, add decl and impl and
    generated pragmas.

    Delete the tests for generated pragma occurring anywhere except
    .opt files, since those tests are now done earlier.

    Shorten some too-long predicate names.

compiler/comp_unit_interface.m:
    Operate on as specific kinds of parse trees as the interface of this
    module will allow. (We could operate on more specific parse trees
    if we changed the interface, but that is future work).

    Use the same predicates for handling duplicate include_module,
    import_module and use_module declarations as everywhere else.

    Delete the code of an experiment that shouldn't be needed anymore.

compiler/equiv_type.m:
    Replace code that operated on item blocks with code that operates
    on various kinds of parse trees.

    Move a giant block of comments to the front, where it belongs.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
    Add a field to the module_info that lets us avoid generating
    misleading error messages above missing definitions of predicates
    or functions when those definitions were present but were not
    added to the HLDS because they had errors.

    Give a field and its access predicates a more specific name.

    Mark a spot where an existing type cannot express everything
    it is supposed to.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    For predicates which the compiler creates to represent a class method
    (the virtual function, in OOP terms), record not just this fact,
    but the id of the class and of the method. Using this extra info
    in progress messages (with mmc -V) prevents the compiler from printing e.g.

        % Checking typeclass constraints on class method
        % Checking typeclass constraints on class method
        % Checking typeclass constraints on class method

    when checking three such predicates.

compiler/make.m:
    Provide a slot in the make_info structure to allow the database
    of the files we have read in to be passed around.

compiler/make_hlds_error.m:
    Delete predicates that are needed in just one other module,
    and have therefore been moved there.

compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
    Add decl, impl and generated pragma separately, instead of adding
    pass2 and pass3 pragmas separately.

    Do not generate error messages for clauses, initialises or finalises
    in module interfaces, since with this diff, such errors should be
    caught earlier.

compiler/mercury_compile_main.m:
compiler/recompilation.check.m:
    Explicitly pass around the expanded database of parse trees
    of files that have been read in.

compiler/module_qual.collect_mq_info.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/module_qual.qualify_items.m:
    Collect module qualification information, and do module qualification
    respectively on parse trees of various kinds, not item blocks.
    Take information about what the module may do with the contents
    of each interface or optimization file from the record of why
    we read that file, not from the section markers in item blocks.

    Break up some too-large predicates by carving smaller ones out of them.

compiler/options.m:
    Add an option to control whether errors and/or warnings detecting
    when deciding what should go into a .intN file be printed,
    thus (potentially) preventing the creation of that file.

    Add commented-out documentation for a previously totally undocumented
    option.

doc/user_guide.texi:
    Document the new option.

NEWS:
    Announce the new option.

    Mention that we now generate warnings for unused import_module and
    use_module declarations in the interface even if the module has
    submodules.

compiler/write_module_interface_files.m:
    Let the new option control whether we filter out any messages generated
    when deciding what should go into a .intN file.

compiler/parse_item.m:
    Delete actually_read_module_opt, since it is no longer needed;
    its callers now call actually_read_module_{plain,trans}_opt instead.

    Delete unneeded arguments from some predicates.

compiler/parse_module.m:
    Delete some long unused predicates.

compiler/parse_pragma.m:
    When parsing pragmas, wrap them up in the new decl, impl or generated
    pragma kinds.

compiler/parse_tree_out.m:
    Add predicates to write out each of the file-kind-specific parse trees.

compiler/parse_tree_out_pragma.m:
    Add predicates to write out decl, impl and generated pragmas.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
    Add a conditionally-enabled progress message, which can be useful
    in tracking down problems.

compiler/prog_item_stats.m:
    Conform NOT to the changes above beyond what is needed to let this module
    compile. Let that work be done the next time the functionality of
    this module is needed, by which time the affected data structures
    maybe have changed further.

compiler/typecheck.m:
    Fix a performance problem. With intermodule optimization, we read in
    .opt files, some of which (e.g. list.opt and int.opt) contain promises.
    These promises are read in as predicates with goal_type_promise,
    but they do not have declarations of the types of their arguments
    (since promises do not have declarations as such). Those argument types
    therefore have to be inferred. That inference replaces the original
    "I don't know" argument types with their actual types.

    The performance problem is that when we change the recorded argument types
    of a predicate, we require another loop over all the predicates in the
    module, so that any calls to this predicate can be checked against
    the updated types. This is as it should be for callable predicates,
    but promises are not callable. So if all the *only* predicates whose
    recorded argument types change during the first iteration to fixpoint
    are promises, then a second iteration is not needed, yet we used to do it.

    The fix is to replace the "Have the recorded types of this predicate
    changed?" boolean flag with a bespoke enum that says "Did the checking
    of this predicate discover a need for another iteration", and not
    setting it when processing predicates whose type is goal_type_promise.

compiler/typecheck_errors.m:
    Do not generate an error message for a predicate missing its clauses
    is the clauses existed but were not added to the HLDS because they were
    in the interface section.

    When reporting on ambiguities (when a call can match more than one
    predicate or function), sort the possible matches before reporting
    them.

    files, (c) .mh/.mih files or (d) .c files between the stage 1 and
    stage 2 library directories. The reason for the restriction
    to the library directory is that any problems affecting the
    generation of any of these kinds of files are likely to manifest
    themselves in the library directory, and if they do, the bootcheck

a5da615a9d Don't use exceptions internally for foreign include file errors.
Use normal return values to signal errors internally if a file
referenced by an `include_file' in a foreign_decl or foreign_code
declaration is missing or there is some error reading from it,
instead of throwing and catching an exception. This allows a compiler
built in a deep profiling grade to continue without aborting.

compiler/file_util.m
    Make the closure argument to output_to_file return a list of error
    strings, and make output_to_file return a boolean indicating if
    there were any errors.

    output_to_file.

    Make write_include_file_contents and
    write_include_file_contents_cur_stream return an error instead of
    throwing an exception if the include file could not be opened or
    copied to the output stream.

    Delete the include_file_error type. Don't throw or catch exceptions
    of that type.

c6cbc43448 Add new require_tail_recursion pragma.
This patch allows the pragma to be parsed, and records the information from
the pragma in the proc_info structure for the relevant procedures.

The patch uses the pragma for the MLDS backend.  However because mutual
recursion is not yet supported on the MLDS backend, mutually recursive calls
are ignored by the pragma.

The patch also documents the pragma in the reference manual, this
documentation is commented out until it is implemented for both LLDS and
MLDS backends.

The patch does not implement the SCC feature discussed on the mailing list.
That can be added later.

4ebe3d0d7e Stop storing globals in the I/O state, and divide mercury_compile.m
Estimated hours taken: 60
Branches: main

Stop storing globals in the I/O state, and divide mercury_compile.m
into smaller, more cohesive modules. (This diff started out as doing
only the latter, but it became clear that this was effectively impossible
without the former, and the former ended up accounting for the bulk of the
changes.)

Taking the globals out of the I/O state required figuring out how globals
data flowed between pieces of code that were often widely separated.
Such flows were invisible when globals could be hidden in the I/O state,
but now they are visible, because the affected code now passes around
globals structures explicitly.

In some cases, the old flow looked buggy, as when one job invoked by
mmc --make could affect the globals value of its parent or the globals value
passed to the next job. I tried to fix such problems when I saw them. I am
not 100% sure I succeeded in every case (I may have replaced old bugs with
new ones), but at least now the flow is out in the open, and any bugs
should be much easier to track down and fix.

In most cases, changes the globals after the initial setup are intended to be
in effect only during the invocation of a few calls. This used to be done
by remembering the initial values of the to-be-changed options, changing their
values in the globals in the I/O state, making the calls, and restoring the old
values of the options. We now simply create a new version of the globals
structure, pass it to the calls to be affected, and then discard it.

In two cases, when discovering reasons why (1) smart recompilation should
not be done or (2) item version numbers should not be generated, the record
of the discovery needs to survive this discarding. This is why in those cases,
we record the discovery by setting a mutable attached to the I/O state.
We use pure code (with I/O states) both to read and to write the mutables,
so this is no worse semantically than storing the information in the globals
structure inside the I/O state. (Also, we were already using such a mutable
for recording whether -E could add more information.)

In many modules, the globals information had to be threaded through
several predicates in the module. In some places, this was made more
difficult by predicates being defined by many clauses. In those cases,
this diff converts those predicates to using explicit disjunctions.

compiler/globals.m:
	Stop storing the globals structure in the I/O state, and remove
	the predicates that accessed it there.

	Move a mutable and its access predicate here from handle_options.m,
	since here is when the mutables treated the same way are.

	In a couple of cases, the value of an option is available in a mutable
	for speed of access from inside performance-critical code. Set the
	values of those mutables from the option when the processing of option
	values is finished, not when it is starting, since otherwise the copies
	of each option could end up inconsistent.

	Validate the reuse strategy option here, since doing it during ctgc
	analysis (a) is too late, and (b) would require an update to the
	globals to be done at an otherwise inconvenient place in the code.
	Put the reuse strategy into the globals structure.

	Two fields in the globals structure were unused. One
	(have_printed_usage) was made redundant when the one predicate
	that used it itself became unused; the other (source_file_map)
	was effectively replaced by a mutable some time ago. Delete
	these fields from the globals.

	Give the fields of the globals structure a distinguishing prefix.

	Put the type declarations, predicate declarations and predicate
	definitions in a consistent order.

compiler/source_file_map.m:
	Record this module's results only in the mutable (it serves as a
	cache), not in globals structure. Use explicitly passed globals
	structure for other purposes.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Rename handle_options as handle_given_options, since it does not
	process THE options to the program, but the options it is given,
	and even during the processing of a single module, it can be invoked
	up the three times in a row, each time being given different options.
	(It was up to four times in a row before this diff.)

	Make handle_given_options explicitly return the globals structure it
	creates. Since it does not take an old global structure as input
	and globals are not stored in the I/O state, it is now clear that
	the globals structure it returns is affected only by the default values
	of the options and the options it processes. Before this diff,
	in the presence of errors in the options, handle_options *could*
	return (implicitly, in the I/O state) the globals structure that
	happened to be in the I/O state when it was invoked.

	Provide a separate predicate for generating a dummy globals based only
	on the default values of options. This allows by mercury_compile.m
	to stop abusing a more general-purpose predicate from handle_options.m,
	which we no longer export.

	Remove the mutable and access predicate moved to globals.m.

compiler/options.m:
	Document the fact that two options, smart_recompilation and
	generate_item_version_numbers, should not be used without seeing
	whether the functionalities they call for have been disabled.

compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_mlds_back_end.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_erl_back_end.m:
	New modules carved out of the old mercury_compile.m. They each cover

	Each of the modules is more cohesive than the old mercury_compile.m.
	Their code is also arranged in a more logical order, with predicates
	representing compiler passes being defined in the order of their
	invocation.

	Some of these modules export predicates for use by their siblings,
	showing the dependencies between the groups of passes.

compiler/top_level.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Add the new modules.

compiler/mark_static_terms.m:
	Move this module from the ml_backend package to the hlds package,
	since (a) it does not depend on the MLDS in any way, and (b) it is
	also needed by a compiler pass (loop invariants) in the middle passes.

compiler/hlds.m:

compiler/passes_aux.m:

	mercury_compile.m, since the new modules also need them.

	Look up globals in the HLDS, not the I/O state.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Store the prefix (common part) of HLDS dump file names in the HLDS
	itself, so that the code moved to passes_aux.m can figure out the
	file name for a HLDS dump without doing system calls.

	Give the field names of some structures prefixes to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Remove the code moved to the other modules. This module now looks
	after only option handling (such as deciding whether to generate .int3
	files, .int files, .opt files etc), and the compilation passes
	up to and including the creation of the first version of the HLDS.
	Everything after that is subcontracted to the new modules.

	Simplify and make explicit the flow of globals information.
	When invoking predicates that could disable smart recompilation,
	check whether they have done so, and if yes, update the globals
	accordingly.

	When compiling via gcc, we need to link into the executable
	the object files of any separate C files we generate for C code
	foreign_procs, which we cannot translate into gcc's internal
	structures without becoming a C compiler as well as a Mercury compiler.
	Instead of adding such files to the accumulating option for extra
	object files in the globals structure, we return their names using
	the already existing mechanism we have always used to link the object
	files of fact tables into the executable.

	Give several predicates more descriptive names. Put predicates
	in a more logical order.

	Require callers to supply globals structures explicitly, not via the
	I/O state. Afterward pass them around explicitly, passing modified
	versions to mercury_compile.m when invoking it with module- and/or
	task-specific options.

	Due the extensive use of partial application for higher order code
	in these modules, passing around the globals structures explicitly
	is quite tricky here. There may be cases where a predicate uses
	an old globals structure it got from a closure instead of the updated
	module- and/or task-specific globals it should be using, or vice versa.
	However, it is just as likely that, this diff fixes old problems
	by preventing the implicit flow of updated-only-for-one-invocation
	globals structures back to the original invoking context.

	Although I have tried to be careful about this, it is also possible
	that in some places, the code is using an updated-for-an-invocation
	globals structure in some but not all of the places where it
	SHOULD be used.

Estimated hours taken: 1.5
Branches: main

Move the stuff currently in hlds_pred.m that deals with clauses into a new
module, hlds_clauses.m.

Move the stuff currently in hlds_pred.m that deals with RTTI into a new
module, hlds_rtti.m.

Move the stuff currently in hlds_module.m that deals with predicate tables
into a new module, pred_table.m.

These changes make hlds_pred.m and hlds_module.m much more cohesive, but there
are no changes in algorithms.

compiler/hlds_clauses.m:
compiler/hlds_rtti.m:
compiler/pred_table.m:
	New modules as described above. In some cases, fix mixleading or
	ambiguous predicate names in the process, and convert a few predicates
	to functions.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Delete the stuff moved to other modules.

compiler/*.m:
	In modules that need the functionality moved a new module, import
	the new module. It is rare for all the new modules to be needed,
	and many modules don't need any of the new modules at all. (For
	example, of the 200+ modules that import hlds_module.m, only about 40
	need pred_table.m.)

	Conform to the few minor changes to e.g. predicate names.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Document the new modules.

Estimated hours taken: 0.1
Branches: main

compiler/compiler_util.m:
	Add expect/3 as a replacement for require/2 in the compiler.

compiler/notes/coding_standards.html:
	Update some references: s/error_util/compiler_util/

	Mention that in the compiler we should use expect/3 rather
	than require/2.

5f589e98fb Various cleanups for the modules in the compiler directory.
Estimated hours taken: 4
Branches: main

Various cleanups for the modules in the compiler directory.  The are
no changes to algorithms except the replacement of some if-then-elses
that would naturally be switches with switches and the replacement of
most of the calls to error/1.

compiler/*.m:
	Convert calls to error/1 to calls to unexpected/2 or sorry/2 as
	appropriate throughout most or the compiler.

	Fix inaccurate assertion failure messages, e.g. identifying the
	assertion failure as taking place in the wrong module.

	Add :- end_module declarations.

	Fix formatting problems and bring the positioning of comments
	into line with our current coding standards.

	Fix some overlong lines.

	Convert some more modules to 4-space indentation.  Fix some spots
	where previous conversions to 4-space indentation have stuffed
	the formatting of the code up.

	Fix a bunch of typos in comments.

	Use state variables in more places; use library predicates
	from the sv* modules where appropriate.

	Delete unnecessary and duplicate module imports.

	Misc. other small cleanups.

f9fe8dcf61 Improve the error messages generated for determinism errors involving committed
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.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Keep track of goals to the right of the current goal that could fail,
	and include them in the error representation if required.

compiler/det_report.m:
	Include the list of failing goals to the right in the representations
	of determinism errors involving committed committed choice goals.

	Convert the last part of this module that wasn't using error_util
	to use error_util. Make most parts of this module just construct
	error message specifications; print those specifications (using
	error_util) in only a few places.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Add a function for use by the new code in det_report.m.

compiler/error_util.m:
	Add a function for use by the new code in det_report.m.

compiler/error_util.m:
compiler/compiler_util.m:
	Error_util is still changing reasonably often, and yet it is
	included in lots of modules, most of which need only a few simple
	non-parse-tree-related predicates from it (e.g. unexpected).
	Move those predicates to a new module, compiler_util.m. This also
	eliminates some undesirable dependencies from libs to parse_tree.

compiler/libs.m:
	Include compiler_util.m.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Document compiler_util.m, and fix the documentation of some other
	modules.

compiler/*.m:
	Import compiler_util instead of or in addition to error_util.
	To make this easier, consistently use . instead of __ for module
	qualifying module names.

tests/invalid/det_errors_cc.{m,err_exp}:
	Add this new test case to test the error messages for cc contexts.

tests/invalid/det_errors_deet.{m,err_exp}:
	Add this new test case to test the error messages for unifications
	inside function symbols.

tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
	Add the new test cases.

tests/invalid/det_errors.err_exp:
tests/invalid/magicbox.err_exp:
	Change the expected output to conform to the change in det_report.m,
	which is now more consistent.
