compiler/type_util.m:
    For predicates which had both varset/vartypes and var_table versions,
    but the former is not used anymore because all its callers have been
    switched to the latter,

    - delete the former, and
    - rename the latter to the name of the former.

    In goal_util.m, switch two currently-unused predicates to use var_tables
    instead of varsets/vartypes, in case they are needed again.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    Likewise replace define_new_pred with define_new_pred_vt, but also
    change its implementation to use var_table for everything except
    the final construction of the proc_info.

de9a82e97e Convert inlining and deforestation to var_tables.
compiler/constraint.m:
compiler/deforest.m:
compiler/inlining.m:
compiler/pd_info.m:
compiler/pd_util.m:
    Convert the inlining and deforestation passes to var_tables.
    (constraint.m, pd_info.m and pd_util.m are part of deforestation.)

    Improve the argument order of a few predicates.

compiler/goal_util.m:
    Add back a bit of flexibility to clone_variables that its var table
    versions have not needed until now: the ability to take the data
    of the var being cloned from a var_table that is separate from
    the one being updated.

compiler/dep_par_conj.m:
compiler/quantification.m:
    Conform to the changes above.

compiler/var_table.m:
    Add a utility function.

ea4f95a7ed Use var_tables in lco.m, and when dumping goals.
Since this is the first converted module that dumps out goals when
debugging trace flags are enabled, this required generalizing the code
that does that, to take either varsets or var_tables as a means of
specifying the names of variables. We do this via a new type,
var_name_source, which contains either a varset or a var_table.

Almost all of this diff is there to implement this generalization.
A large part of it affects code in the parse_tree package that we use
to write out the parts of HLDS goals that are defined by types defined
in that package. Since we want to avoid making any part of the parse_tree
package dependent on the hlds package, this required defining the
var_name_source type in the parse_tree package, which in turn requires
var_table.m to be in that same package.

compiler/lco.m:
    Convert this module to use var_tables instead of varsets and vartypes.

compiler/var_table.m:
    Move this module from the hlds package to the parse_tree package.

    To make this, possible, move the parts that required access to the HLDS
    to hlds_pred.m, from where it was usually invoked.

    Export some utility predicates to allow the moved code to work
    in hlds_pred.m without access to the actual definition of the
    var_table type.

    Define the var_name_source type.

    Add some utility functions for use by code writing out variable names.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    Add the code moved from var_table.m.

compiler/vartypes.m:
    Move this module from the hlds package to the parse_tree package,
    for symmetry with var_table.m. It did not depend on being in hlds
    in any way.

compiler/hlds.m:
compiler/parse_tree.m:
    Move vartypes.m and var_table.m from the hlds package
    to the parse_tree package.

compiler/hlds_out_goal.m:
    Change all the predicates in this module to take a var_name_source
    instead of a prog_varset.

    Fix some comments.

compiler/hlds_out_util.m:
    Change some of the predicates in this module (those called from
    hlds_out_goal.m) to take a var_name_source instead of a prog_varset.

compiler/parse_tree_out_term.m:
    Provide variants of some existing predicates and functions that take
    var_name_sources instead of varsets. The code of the copies
    duplicates the logic of the originals, though I hope that this
    duplication can be done away with at the end of the transition.
    (The best solution would be to use a typeclass with methods
    that convert vars to their names, but we would want to ensure
    that the compiler can specialize all the affected predicates
    and functions to the two instances of this typeclass, which is
    something that we cannot do yet. In the meantime, the lack of
    any generalization in the old versions preserves their performance.)

tools/sort_imports:
tools/filter_sort_imports:
    A new tool that automatically sorts any occurrences of consecutive
    ":- import_module" declarations in the named files. The sorting is done
    in filter_sort_imports; sort_imports loops over the named files.

    After automatically replacing all occurrences of hlds.{vartypes,var_table}
    in import_module declarations with their parse_tree versions, the updated
    import_module declarations were usually out of order with respect to
    their neighbours. I used this script to fix that, and some earlier
    out-of-order imports.

41c2fe79e8 Add a new language construct, the disable_warnings scope.
Its syntax is

    disable_warnings [warning_category1, ...] Goal

Its semantics is identical to Goal's semantics, with the only difference
being that the compiler will not generate warnings belonging to the listed
categories for code inside Goal.

At the moment, we support the disabling of two warning categories:
singleton variable warnings, and warnings about recursive calls that are not
*tail* recursive. However, the documentation of the latter is commented out
until we use the same code for generating such warnings regardless of what
backend generates code.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
    Document the new language extension.

NEWS:
    Mention the new language extension.

library/ops.m:
    Make "disable_warnings" (and its "disable_warning" variant) binary prefix
    operators, as required for the syntax of the new scope.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Add disable_warnings_expr as a new kind of goal in the parse tree.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
    Add disable_warnings as a new kind of scope goal in the HLDS.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Add a type that represents the set of warnings that may be disabled.

    This type cannot be in prog_item.m, because it is needed by the HLDS,
    and we don't want the HLDS to depend on prog_item.m.

compiler/parse_goal.m:
    Parse the new kind of goal, transforming it from source code to parse tree.

compiler/goal_expr_to_goal.m:
    Transform the new kind of goal from parse tree to HLDS.

compiler/prog_out.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out_clause.m:
compiler/hlds_out_goal.m:
    Output the new kinds of parse tree and HLDS goals.

compiler/make_hlds_warn.m:
    Disable singleton variable warnings when the new scope asks for that.

compiler/mark_tail_calls.m:
    Disable warnings about non-tail-recursive recursive calls
    when the new scope asks for that.

    Improve a warning message.

compiler/ml_tailcall.m:
    Document why this sort-of-duplicate implementation of the
    warnings about non-tail-recursive recursive calls cannot respect
    the new scope. (I believe this sort-of-duplicate code should be deleted.)

    Improve the same warning message as in mark_tail_calls.m.

    Wrap a disable_warnings scope around one of the non-tail-recursive
    recursive calls we used to get a warning about, and expect that
    we don't get this warning anymore. (We still do get this warning in grades
    that use ml_tailcall.m instead of mark_tail_calls.m to generate such
    warnings, as mentioned above.)

    Specify Mercury syntax highlighting for the source file.
    Expect the improved wording of a warning.

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.

04dec8c205 Carve vartypes.m, prog_detism.m and prog_rename.m out of prog_data.m.
Besides defining most of the types representing the smaller parts of
parse trees (parts smaller than items), prog_data.m also has many utility
predicates that operate on values of these types. Carve the three substantial
clusters of predicates out of prog_data.m, and move them into their own
modules, which are each imported by fewer modules than prog_data.m itself.

compiler/vartypes.m:
    New module containing the vartypes type and the predicates that operate
    on it. The new module has *much* better cohesion than the old prog_data.m.

    The vartypes type does not appear in any parse tree; it is used only
    in the HLDS. So make vartypes.m part of the hlds.m package, not
    parse_tree.m.

    Move three predicates that perform renamings and substitutions on vartypes
    here from prog_type_subst.m, since the latter is part of the parse_tree.m
    package, and thus doesn't have access to hlds.vartypes. Make private
    the service predicate that these three moved predicates used to rely on,
    since it has no other callers.

compiler/prog_detism.m:
    New module containing utility predicates that operate on determinisms
    and determinism components.

compiler/prog_rename.m:
    New module containing utility predicates that rename variables in
    various data structures.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Remove the stuff now in the three new modules.

compiler/prog_type_subst.m:
    Remove the three predicates now in vartypes.m.

compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
    Delete an unneded predicate, which was the only part of this module
    that referred to vartypes.

compiler/prog_type.m:
compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
compiler/type_util.m:
    Move some utility predicates that refer to vartypes from prog_type.m
    and builtin_lib_types.m (both part of parse_tree.m) to type_util.m
    (part of check_hlds.m).

3080515d3a Add require_switch_arms_{det,semidet,...} to the language.
The new construct looks like this:

    require_switch_arms_det [C] (
        (
            C = 'a',
            ... compute Out ...
        ;
            C = 'b',
            ... compute Out ...
        )
    )

If any of the goals computing Out are not det, the compiler will generate
an error message. The det at the end of the keyword can be replaced
by any of the other seven determinisms, though I don't think either
require_switch_arms_failure or require_switch_arms_erroneous will see much use.

This diff adds only the implementation. I will add the documentation
and the NEWS item after we all had a chance to install this diff and
try it out.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
    Add a scope representing this kind of goal in the HLDS.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Add a goal expression for this kind of goal in the parse tree.

compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
    Look for the new kind of goal expression in terms when creating
    the parse tree.

    Factor out some commonalities between the parsing of the new goal
    expression and existing types of goal expressions.

compiler/goal_expr_to_goal.m:
    Convert the new kind of goal expression to the new scope in the HLDS.

compiler/det_report.m:
    Implement the checks that the new goal type calls for.

    Factor out some commonalities between the implementation of the new goal
    type and existing goal types.

    Move the types and predicates dealing with comparisons of determinisms
    from here to prog_data.m, due to the sort-of-bugfix to modecheck_call.m.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Move the types and predicates dealing with comparisons of determinisms
    from det_report.m to here. The old code for this was intended for only one
    requirement, and did not deal well with comparisons of two determinisms
    in which each determinism makes an assertion the other does not make.
    Create a way to represent such comparison results.

compiler/modecheck_call.m:
    When deciding which mode of a procedure to call, we prefer determinisms
    that make more assertions about solution counts. However, when comparing
    incomparable determinisms (such as semidet vs multi, each of which makes
    an assertion the other doesn't), the algorithm chose based solely
    on the ORDER of the modes. We now explicitly prefer modes that promise
    lower maximum solution counts, giving less importance to cannot_fail
    assertions.

compiler/*.m:
    Conform to the change to hlds_goal.m or prog_item.m.

library/ops.m:
    Add the new keywords as operators.

tests/hard_coded/require_scopes.{m,exp}:
    Extend this test case to test the new construct in the absence of errors.

tests/invalid/require_scopes.{m,exp}:
    Extend this test case to test the new construct in the presence of errors.

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.


compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
	Always enable float registers in low-level C grades when floats are
	wider than a word.

compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
	Always allow double word floats to be stored unboxed in cells on C
	grades.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add an extra field to `generic_call' which gives the register class
	to use for each argument.  This is set by the float_regs pass.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add an extra field to `pred_inst_info' which records the register class
	to use for each argument.  This is set by the float_regs pass.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add a field to `proc_sub_info' which lists the headvars which must be
	passed via regular registers despite their types.

	Add a field to `pred_sub_info' to record the original unsubstituted
	argument types for instance method predicates.

compiler/check_typeclass.m:
	In the pred_info of an instance method predicate, record the original
	argument types before substituting the type variables for the instance.

compiler/float_regs.m:
compiler/transform_hlds.m:
	Add the new HLDS pass.

compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
	Run the new pass if float registers are enabled.

compiler/lambda.m:
	Export the predicate to produce a predicate from a lambda.
	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.

compiler/call_gen.m:
	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
	arguments when making a higher-order call.

compiler/llds.m:
	Say that the `do_call_closure_N' functions only work for zero float
	register arguments.

compiler/follow_vars.m:
compiler/interval.m:
	Account for the use of float registers by generic call goals in these
	passes.

compiler/unify_gen.m:
	Move float register arguments to the end of a closure's hidden
	arguments vector, after regular register arguments.

	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
	is a float *and* is passed via a regular register, when floats are
	normally passed via float registers.  Instead, give it the type_info
	for `private_builtin.float_box'.

compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
	Add function to return the type of `private_builtin.float_box/0'.

compiler/hlds_out_goal.m:
compiler/hlds_out_pred.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Dump the new fields added to `generic_call', `pred_inst_info' and
	`proc_sub_info'.

compiler/prog_type.m:
	Add helper predicate.

compiler/*.m:
	Conform to changes.

library/private_builtin.m:
	Add a type `float_box'.

runtime/mercury_ho_call.h:
	Describe the modified closure representation.

	Rename the field which counts the number of hidden arguments to prevent
	it being used incorrectly, as it now encodes two numbers (potentially).

	Add macros to unpack the encoded field.

runtime/mercury_ho_call.c:
	Update the description of how higher-order calls work.

	arguments being reordered in the hidden arguments vector.

runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
	Add helper function.

	Update the generated do_call_closure_* functions to place float
	register arguments.

0e6792f106 Prepare to enable tail recursion in loop controlled code.
This patch prevents dep_par_conj.m from inserting get_future goals where they
are not necessary.  These goals where preventing tail recursion in examples
such as map_foldl (not the library predicate, but the one in our paper).

This patch also modifies the loop control scope reason, adding an extra field
that says if the spawned off code may use the parent stack or should setup a
new stack frame.

This patch makes it possible for Zoltan to begin contributing the missing parts
in the code generator.  Meanwhile I will work on the runtime system and the
par_loop_control.m code.

compiler/dep_par_conj.m:
    Don't insert calls to get_future if they're not needed.

    They prevent tail recursion from being possible and are not being optimized
    away.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
    Add a new field to the loop_control scope reason, lc_use_parent_stack.
    This field is used to tell the code generator if it should generate
    references to the parent stack frame or if it should create a new stack
    frame on the child's stack.

138ac7f0c4 Propose changes to the HLDS that are needed by the loop control transformation.
The loop control transformation will introduce code that needs to be executed
by a different context, This code will need to communicate with the context
that created it, for parallel conjunctions this is done using an extra stack
pointer, the parent stack pointer.  We've chosen to use the same communication
mechanism for loop control, this means that the code generator must generate
instructions that use the parent stack pointer instead of the normal stack
pointer.  A extra labels and a join_and_terminate call must also be inserted by
the code generator.

So that the code generator can do this we've introduced a new scope reason,
code that would be forked off will be contained within such a scope, informing
the code generator that special code needs to be generated.  The scope reason
also contains two variables, the loop control and loop control slot variables.
These variables are needed by the join and terminate code.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
    Introduce new scope reason that marks code that must be handled differently
    during code generation Such code has had the loop control transformation
    applied to it and must be forked off to be executed on a different context.

585c1d623c Fix a problem with from_ground_term scopes.
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main

Fix a problem with from_ground_term scopes. When they are built, the scopes
are tentantively marked as from_ground_term_construct scopes, and the
unifications inside them are in a top down order. Mode analysis therefore
expected the unifications inside from_ground_term_construct scopes to have
that order.

The problem was that mode analysis, when it confirmed that a
from_ground_term scope is indeed a from_ground_term_construct scope,
itself reversed the order of the unifications, putting them in a bottom up
order. When mode analysis is reinvoked, either for unique mode checking, or
after cse_detection finds common subexpressions, this meant that
mode analysis found the unifications in the "wrong" order, and therefore
disregarded the scope, discarding all its performance benefits.

This diff separates out the two notions that we previously conflated.
The scope kind from_ground_term_construct now refers only to scopes
which are definitely known to construct ground terms. We can know that
only after mode analysis. Until then, from_ground_term scopes are now marked
as from_ground_term_initial. The two kinds have different though overlapping
sets of invariants; in particular, they promise different orderings of the
unifications in the scope.

This diff reduces the time needed to compile mas_objects.data.m
from about 221 seconds to about 8.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add the from_ground_term_initial kind. Document the invariants
	that each kind of from_ground_term scope promises.

compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
	Mark from_ground_term scopes initially as from_ground_term_initial,
	not from_ground_term_construct.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	Make the predicate that converts function calls that look like
	unifications (such as X = int.min) into actual function calls
	say whether it performed such a conversion.

compiler/purity.m:
	Use the new functionality in post_typecheck.m to convert
	from_ground_term_initial scopes into from_ground_term_other scopes
	if the conversion of a unification into a call means that we have to
	break an invariant expected of from_ground_term_initial scopes.

compiler/cse_detection.m:
compiler/switch_detection.m:
	Maintain the invariants we now expect of from_ground_term_deconstruct
	scopes.

compiler/modecheck_goal.m:
	Maintain the invariants we now expect of the different
	from_ground_term scopes.

	Avoid traversing such scopes if a previous invocation of mode analysis
	says we can.

	Optimize away from_ground_term_construct scopes if the variable being
	constructed is not needed later.

compiler/quantification.m:
	If the variable named in a from_ground_term_initial or
	from_ground_term_construct scope is not referred to outside the scope,
	set the nonlocals set of the scope to empty, which allows later
	compiler passes to optimize it away.

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.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Replace almost all occurrences of set(prog_var) with set_of_progvar.
	The main exceptions are the types supporting rbmm.

compiler/set_of_var.m:
	Add some more predicates and functions that previous existed on sets
	but not yet on set_of_vars.

	shouldn't have to be converted to a set.

e77bcdc4ba Add two new kinds of scopes to the language: one that requires the goal inside
Estimated hours taken: 12
Branches: main

Add two new kinds of scopes to the language: one that requires the goal inside
the scope to have a given determinism, and one that requires it
to be complete, i.e. to have arms for all the function symbols in the type of
the switched-on variable.

The first kind of scope adds the keywords

	require_det require_semidet
	require_multi require_nondet
	require_cc_multi require_cc_nondet
	require_erroneous require_failure

to the language. They are intended to be used like this:

	test_detism_scope(A, !IO) :-
	    (
		A > 10,
		require_det (
		    B = A * 2,
		    C = B mod 3
		),
		C = 1
	    ->
		X = C
	    ;
		X = A
	    ),
	    io.format("test_detism_scope(%d) = %d\n", [i(A), i(X)], !IO).

The second kind of scope adds the keyword require_complete_switch to
the language. They are intended to be used like this:

	do_test_switch_scope(A, X) :-
	    require_complete_switch [A] (
		(
		    A = f1,
		    fail
		;
		    A = f2,
		    ( X = 1
		    ; X = 2
		    )
		;
		    A = f3(B),
		    ( X = 3
		    ; X = B
		    ; X = B + 1
		    )
		)

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
	correctly quantified, and any compiler pass that invalidates that
	quantification also removes the from_ground_term_construct mark.

	Don't apply empty renamings to a possibly very large set of variables.

	Move the code for handling scopes to its own predicate, to avoid
	overwhelming the code that handles other kinds of goals. Even from
	this, factor out the renaming code, since it is needed only for
	some kinds of scopes.

	Make some predicate names better reflect what the predicate does.

compiler/pd_cost.m:
	For from_ground_term_construct scopes, instead of computing their cost
	by adding up the costs of the goals inside, make their cost a constant,
	since binding a variable to a static term takes constant time.

	Add prefixes on field names to avoid ambiguities.

8c4bcaf297 Make the intermodule analysis framework not require the I/O state for looking
Estimated hours taken: 6
Branches: main

Make the intermodule analysis framework not require the I/O state for looking
up and recording analysis results.  The I/O state was required because
analysis files were loaded "on demand" but in most cases this was pointless.
Now we just load all the analysis files of transitively imported modules
before we run anything that uses the analysis framework.

	Make the main change above.

	Use `unexpected' instead of `error' for fatal errors.

	Replace `{Call, Answer, analysis_status}' tuples by a new type

	Rename the existing existentially-typed `analysis_result' to
	`some_analysis_result'.

	Remove the `module_is_local' method from the `compiler' typeclass.
	Replace it by a plain procedure that takes an `analysis_info' as
	input, instead of using the I/O state.

	Use trace goals for debugging output, where we no longer have the I/O
	state.

	Clean up some code.

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.

	Replace some multi-clause predicate definitions with single clauses,
	to make it easier to print the arguments in mdb.

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?

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:
	Rename the trace module as trace_gen, since "trace" is now an operator.

	Rename some predicates exported by the module, now that it is no longer
	possible to preface calls with "trace." as a module qualifier.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Document this name change.

compiler/options.m:
