compiler/mercury_compile_make_hlds.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_mlds_back_end.m:
    Pass progress and error streams explicitly in these top modules
    of the compiler. Use "XXX STREAM" to mark places where we could switch
    from using stderr for both the progress and error streams to using
    module-specific files as the progress and/or error streams.

compiler/passes_aux.m:
    Add a "maybe_" prefix to the names of the predicates that print progress
    messages at the appropriate verbosity levels, as their printing of those
    messages is conditional.

    Provide versions of those predicates that take explicitly specified
    streams to write to, and mark the versions that write to the current
    output stream as obsolete.

    The predicate that wrote progress messages for procedures
    used to have two versions, one taking a pred_proc_id, and one taking
    a pred_id/proc_id pair. Delete the latter, because the arity difference
    that differentiated the two versions is now needed for the difference
    between supplying and not supplying an explicit stream.

compiler/file_util.m:
compiler/hlds_error_util.m:
compiler/write_error_spec.m:
    Delete several predicates that wrote to the current output stream,
    since all their callers now use the versions that specify an explicit
    output stream.

    Get these modules to take an explicitly specified stream to which
    to write progress messages when they are invoked from mercury_compile_*.m.

    For predicates in these modules that can be invoked both directly
    by mercury_compile_*.m *and* by other modules, the latter effectively
    as a subcontractor, make them take a maybe(stream), with the intention
    being that all the other modules that use the predicate as a subcontractor
    would pass a "no". This avoids the need to pass progress streams
    down to the internals of other passes, and also avoids overwhelming
    the user invoking the compiler with unnecessary details.

    As above, and also delete a progress message that shouldn't be needed
    anymore.

    Move a test of option value compatibility from
    mercury_compile_middle_passes.m to handle_options.m, where it belongs.

compiler/float_regs.m:
    Write a debug message to the debug stream.

compiler/pd_info.m:
    Include the progress stream in the pd_info structure, because this is
    the simplest way to ensure that all parts of the partial deduction pass
    have access to it.

compiler/make.build.m:
compiler/make.program_target.m:
compiler/make.track_flags.m:
    Make the minimal changes needed to conform to the changes above.
    The rest can be done when the make package is converted to consistently
    use explicit streams.

compiler/bytecode_gen.m:
compiler/structure_reuse.direct.m:
compiler/structure_reuse.versions.m:
compiler/structure_sharing.analysis.m:
    Make the minimal changes needed to conform to the changes above.
    The rest can be done when these modules start being maintained again.

compiler/Mercury.options:
    Stop specifying --no-warn-implicit-stream-calls for mercury_compile_*.m,
    since this diff makes that unnecessary.

    Start specifying --no-warn-implicit-stream-calls for some modules that
    are not currently being actively maintained, because the addition of
    progress-reporting predicates that take explicitly specified streams
    would otherwise cause the generation of such warnings for them.

f7355f708b Move var_db and var_{name,type}_source to var_db.m.
In the process, restrict the use of these types to just those modules
that need to provide services both other modules that use var_tables,
and modules that do not. The latter are modules that either can,
or always do, execute before var_tables are set up.

In some cases, code that previously operated on e.g. var_name_sources
had all its callers converted to use var_tables. In those cases, replace
the use of var_name_sources with var_tables directly.

In other cases, code that previously operated on e.g. var_name_sources
still has some callers that use varsets. In those cases,

- provide versions using var_tables if most callers use var_tables,
  renaming predicates/functions to make this the version seem the default,

- leave the operation to work on var_name_sources if some its callers
  also have only var_name_sources,

- if there are no such callers, keep just the two versions operating
  on varsets and var_tables respectively.

compiler/var_db.m:
compiler/var_table.m:
    Move the part of var_table.m that contains the definitions
    of the above three types, and the operations on them, to the
    new module var_db.m. Only 25 modules currently need var_db.m,
    compared to 176 for var_table.m.

compiler/parse_tree.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
    Add and document the new module.

compiler/parse_tree_out_term.m:
    Add a "_vs" suffix to the names of operations that print variables
    or terms using varsets, and reuse their old names for versions
    that use var_table arguments. For the operations that need var_name_source
    versions, make it just select between the varset and var_table versions.

    to operate on var_tables.

    In hlds_out_mode.m, delete some unused predicates, and stop exporting
    a predicate whose only caller is local.

93bf6018d5 More changes making using var_tables the default.
compiler/goal_util.m:
    Add a "_vs" suffix to the names of predicates that use varsets, and
    delete the "_table" suffix from the names of predicates that use
    var_tables.

compiler/hlds_out_pred.m:
    Delete one of two predicates that write out var tables, and use only
    the other one.

compiler/prog_util.m:
    Delete make_n_fresh_vars_vt, since it put dummy information in
    new var_table_entries, requiring them to be filled in with real info later.
    All users of it switched to constructing var_table_entries with
    real information from the start.

2a1c2bb88a Make quantification using var_tables the default.
compiler/quantification.m:
    Add a "_vs" suffix to the names of predicates that use varsets, and
    delete the "_vt" suffix from the names of predicates that use var_tables.

    Keep private a predicate that now has no callers outside this module.

    Shorten the names of some function symbols.

compiler/recompute_instmap_deltas.m:
    Shorten the names of some function symbols.

d787ee9355 Store var_tables in proc_infos.
This fixes the performance problem reported in Mantis bug #562.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    Instead of storing a varset and a vartypes in each proc_info,
    store just a var_table. Update the predicates that create
    or clone procedures accordingly.

    Where we had operations on proc_infos that had two versions,
    one operating on a varset/vartypes pair and one operating on var_table,
    keep only the latter, with the (shorter) name of the former.

    Delete the arity argument of proc_info_init, because the only
    valid value of that argument is the length of the list of the
    argument types. (In other words, this arg has been redundant
    all along.)

    Change the operations that create new variables in a procedure
    to get the caller to specify the (base) name of the new variable
    up front.

    Delete the unused predicate proc_info_ensure_unique_names.

compiler/type_util.m:
    Due to the change above, we now construct var_tables during the
    construction of the HLDS. The code that does that needs to fill in
    the field that says whether the type of each variable in the table
    is a dummy type or not. However, at this time, the pass that decides
    type representations has not been run yet. The code of is_type_a_dummy
    used to throw an exception in such situations.

    Change this so that in such situations, is_type_a_dummy returns
    a placeholder, not-guaranteed-to-be-correct value. Document why
    this is ok.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:
    Replace the placeholder values in vte_is_dummy fields in all
    the entries in the var_tables in all (valid) predicates with valid data.
    (If there are any invalid predicates, the compilation will fail anyway.)
    The clause_to_proc pass will copy these updated var_tables
    to be the initial var_tables in procedures.

compiler/make_goal.m:
    Change the operations that create new variables in a procedure
    to get the caller to specify the (base) name of the new variable
    up front. This is simpler than the old method, which created new
    variables without a name, and had the caller give them a name as
    a separate operation. And since var_tables need this info,
    get the caller to also specify whether the type is a dummy,
    if the type is not a builtin type which is known not to be a dummy.

compiler/var_table.m:
    Document the times when the types and is_dummy fields in var_table
    entries become meaningful.

    Fix a potential bug: when performing type substitutions in
    var_table entries, updating a variable's type may change whether
    that variable is a dummy or not, so recompute that info.
    It is quite possible that we *never* replace a nondummy type
    with a dummy type or vice versa, but in the absence of a convincing
    correctness argument for that proposition, better safe than sorry.

    Export the previously-private predicate transform_var_table
    to post_typecheck.

    Add code to implement the unused predicate deleted from hlds_pred.m:
    at the time I wrote it, I haven't yet realised that it was unused.
    The code I wrote here is therefore unused as well, so it is commented out.
    I did not delete it, because it may be useful later on.

    to a varset and a vartypes cried foul.

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.

3f3045c9e2 Get and set varsets/vartypes in proc_infos together.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    We eventually want to replace the varset and vartypes fields in
    each proc_info with a var_table, but it is not practical to do so
    at once; it will have to be done gradually, a few modules at most
    at a time. During this process, we will need a way either

    - to let already converted modules get a var_table out of the proc_info,
      and put an updated var_table back into a proc_info, even though
      proc_infos still contain varset and vartypes fields, or

    - to let not-yet-converted modules get varsets and vartypes out of the
      proc_info, and put updated varsets and vartypes back into a proc_info,
      even though proc_infos already store a var_table.

    The latter cannot be done in two halves (i.e. set the varset half
    of the var_table, and then set its vartypes half), and while the former
    *can* be done that way, it is more efficient to do them at the same time.

    Therefore as a first step, this diff replaces the indiviual getter
    and setter predicates of the varset and vartypes fields of proc_info
    with a getter that gets both and a setter that sets both.

    Put the varset and vartypes next to each other in a structure.

    Print both the initial "% " at the start of the message, and the space
    between the message and the id of the predicate or procedure, so that
    callers don't have to. The fact that one caller was missing the "% "
    was the motive for this diff.

    After each message, flush the output. This is required in some use cases.

5f50259d16 Write to explicitly named streams in many modules.
Right now, most parts of the compiler write to the "current output stream".
This was a pragmatic choice at the time, but has not aged well. The problem
is that the answer to the question "where is the current output stream going?"
is not obvious in *all* places in the compiler (although it is obvious in
most). When using such implicit streams, finding where the output is going
to in a given predicate requires inspecting not just the ancestors of that
predicate, but also all their older siblings (since any of them could have
changed the current stream), *including* their entire call trees. This is
usually an infeasible task. By constrast, if we explicitly pass streams
to all output operations, we need only follow the places where the variable
representing that stream is bound, which the mode system makes easy.

This diff switches large parts of the compiler over to doing output only
to explicitly passed streams, never to the implicit "current output stream".
The parts it switches over are the parts that rely to a significant degree
on the innermost change, which is to the "output" typeclass in
parse_tree_out_info.m. This is the part that has to be switched over to
explicit streams first, because (a) many modules such as mercury_to_mercury.m
rely on the output typeclass, and (b) most other modules that do output
call predicates in these modules. Starting anywhere else would be like
building a skyscraper starting at the top.

This typeclass, output(U), has two instances: output(io), and output(string),
so you could output either to the current output stream, or to a string.
To allow the specification of the destination stream in the first case,
this diff changes the typeclass to output(S, U) with a functional dependency
from U to S, with the two instances being output(io.text_output_stream, io)
and output(unit, string). (The unit arg is ignored in the second case.)

There is a complication with the output typeclass method, add_list, that
outputs a list of items. The complication is that each item is output
by a predicate supplied by the caller, but the separator between the items
(usually a comma) is output by add_list itself. We don't want to give
callers of this method the opportunity to screw up by specifying (possibly
implicitly) two different output streams for these two purposes, so we want
(a) the caller to tell add_list where to put the separators, and then
(b) for add_list, not its caller, tell the user-supplied predicate what
stream to write to. This works only if the stream argument is just before
the di,uo pair of I/O state arguments, which differs from our usual practice
of passing the stream at or near the left edge of the argument list,
not near the right. The result of this complication is that two categories
of predicates that are and are not used to print items in a list differ
in where they put the stream in their argument lists. This makes it easy
to pass the stream in the wrong argument position if you call a predicate
without looking up its signature, and may require *changing* the argument
order when a predicate is used to print an item in a list for the first time.
A complete switch over to always passing the stream just before !IO
would fix this inconsistency, but is far to big a change to make all at once.

compiler/parse_tree_out_info.m:
    Make the changes described above.

    Add write_out_list, which is a variant of io.write_list specifically
    designed to address the "complication" described above. It also has
    the arguments in an order that is better suited for higher-order use.

    Make the same change to argument order in the class method add_list
    as well.

Almost all of the following changes consist of passing an extra stream
argument to output predicates. In some places, where I thought this would
aid readability, I replaced sequences of calls to output predicates
with a single io.format.

compiler/prog_out.m:
    This module had many predicates that wrote things to the current output
    stream. This diff adds versions of these predicates that take an
    explicit stream argument.

    If the originals are still needed after the changes to the other modules,
    keep them, but add "_to_cur_stream" to the end of their names.
    Otherwise, delete them. (Many of the changes below replace
    write_xyz(..., !IO) with io.write_string(Stream, xyz_to_string(...), !IO),
    especially when write_xyz did nothing except call xyz_to_string
    and wrote out the result.)

compiler/c_util.m:
    Add either an explicit stream argument to the argument list, or a
    "_current_stream" suffix to the name, of every predicate defined
    in this module that does output.

    Add a new predicate to print out the block comment containing
    input for mkinit. This factors out common code in the LLDS and MLDS
    backends.

compiler/name_mangle.m:
    Delete all predicates that used to write to the current output stream,
    after replacing them if necessary with functions that return a string,
    which the caller can print to wherever it wants. (The "if necessary"
    part is there because some of the "replacement" functions already
    existed.)

    When converting a proc_label to a string, *always* require the caller
    to say whether the label prefix should be added to the string,
    instead of silently assuming "yes, add it", as calls to one of the old,
    now deleted predicates had it.

compiler/file_util.m:
    Add output_to_file_stream, a version of output_to_file which
    simply passes the output file stream it opens to the predicate
    that is intended to define the contents of the newly created or
    updated file. The existing output_to_file, which instead sets
    and resets the current output stream around the equivalent
    predicate call, is still needed e.g. by the MLDS backend,
    but hopefully for not too long.

    Change the code writing out HLDS code to explicitly pass a stream
    to every predicate that does output. (The changes to these modules
    belong in this diff because these modules call many of the output
    predicates in the parse tree package.)

    In hlds_out_util.m, delete some write_to_xyz(...) predicates that wrote
    the result of xyz_to_string(...) to the current output stream.
    Replace calls to the deleted predicates with calls to io.write_string
    with the string being written being computed by xyz_to_string.

    Add a predicate to hlds_out_util.m that outputs a comment containing
    the current context, if it is valid. This factors out code that used
    to be common to several of the other modules.

    In a few places in hlds_out_module.m, the new code generates a

206cc8503b Revisit valid vs all proc_ids in a pred_info.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    We have several predicates that retrieve selected subsets of all
    the proc_ids in a pred_info. For those that retrieve the proc_ids
    of only valid procedures, put "valid" into their names.

    Fix a bug in the implementation of pred_info_all_non_imported_proc_ids,
    which, despite its name, used to return the proc_ids of only the
    *valid* non-imported procedures.

    The distinction between all procedures and only valid procedures
    only really matters between mode analysis and the end of the front end.
    A procedure is valid if it has no mode errors, so before mode analysis,
    all procedures are valid by default, and if any procedure has any
    mode errors, the compiler should terminate after the front end is done.

    However, the distinction matters for readability, so this diff changes
    things so that we get all proc_ids in code executed before mode analysis,
    and valid proc_ids after the front end, with calls handled on a case-by-
    case basis in between.

    The distinction also matters in the presence of errors. For example,
    we shouldn't tell users that a predicate has no modes when it has
    modes that all happen to be invalid, and we should dump procedures
    into .hlds_dump files even if they are invalid, since their invalidity
    may be exactly what the user is trying to debug.

df9420c3e6 Flatten the unify_mode structure.
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
    Change the unify_mode structure from

        unify_modes_lhs_rhs(from_to_insts(LI, LF), from_to_insts(RI, RF))

    to

        unify_modes_li_lf_ri_rf(LI, LF, RI, RF)

    This requires fewer memory allocations (1 vs 3) and less memory
    (4 words vs 6), though the performance improvement is too small
    to measure.

    It should also require writing fewer function symbols in code.

compiler/instmap.m:
compiler/mode_util.m:
    For each utility predicate that works with from_to_insts, provide
    a version that works with the separate insts contained in it.
    Delete the from_to_insts version if no longer needed.

compiler/prog_mode.m:
    Delete utility predicates on from_to_insts that are not needed anymore.

cfcfde1db7 Simplify the representation of modes of unifications.
Unifications (x = y) have long had two descriptions of their modes.
One is the unify_mode, which used to look like this:
    (initx -> finalx) - (inity -> finaly)
and other is the uni_mode, which used to look like this:
    (initx - inity) -> (finalx - finaly)
Each unification had one unify_mode, and each unification that includes
a function symbol had one uni_mode per argument of that function symbol.

The two forms of mode information looked similar enough to be easily
confusable, but were subtly different. As it turns out, there was no
particular reason for the difference, so this diff eliminates the
uni_mode type, and the difference along with it.

What rationale there was for the uni_mode type was that the two modes
it represented (one for each side of the unification) both had their
initial and final insts directly available. This is not true for modes
in general: a value of the mer_mode type could have the form
"InitInst -> FinalInst" (which this diff renames "from_to_mode(InitInst,
FinalInst)", but could also be a "user_defined_inst(...)", which required
a table lookup to turn it into an initial/final pair of insts. This matters,
because almost all code that processes the modes of unifications
works with the initial and final insts.

This diff therefore creates a new type, from_to_insts, which represents
mode information only in the form of terms such as "from_to_insts(InitInst,
FinalInst)", and makes a unify_mode take two values of this type, not mer_mode,
as arguments.

As discussed on m-rev, this diff also renames the old, deceptively named
"arg_mode" type: its new name is "top_functor_mode".

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
    As mentioned above, avoid using "->" as a function symbol, and replace
    both -> and - with bespoke function symbols.

compiler/mode_util.m:
    Add some utility predicates and functions on the new types, and
    delete the old utility routines that operated on uni_modes.

    Code that uses the new functions and predicates should have a higher level
    of abstraction than the code that used to do the same job "manually".

compiler/*.m:
    Conform to the changes above, using the new utility predicates and
    functions where relevant. In several cases, this required fixing
    confusion of the kind described at the top. In all but one case,
    the confusion affected only variable names, but in one case,
    deconstruct_functor in make_goal.m, it caused a bug. The bug has
    had no effect up till now because deconstruct_functor is called
    only from three places: try_expand.m, stm_expand.m, and untupling.m.
    The incorrect mode (which was the nonsensical ground -> free)
    generated by the code of try_expand.m itself was discarded and
    overwritten when try_expand.m invoked the modechecker. (I don't
    know whether this bugfix makes that invocation redundant or not.)
    The other two modules, stm_expand.m and untupling.m, may do something
    similar, but in any case, they don't yet work for other reasons.
    (A bootcheck with --untupling causes a compiler abort when compiling
    deep_profiler/query.m in stage 2 both without and with this fix.)

    Delete no-longer-needed imports of the pair module (and of some other
    modules).

    Put the arguments of some predicates into a more logical order.

    In bytecode_gen.m, replace clauses with disjunctions, and delete the
    arguments that this step has revealed to be unused.

7f5a08eb37 Split parts of inst_match.m into a new module, inst_test.m
Most modules that imported inst_match did so in order to use
predicates such as inst_is_ground to test properties of insts.
These predicates are split into a new module, leaving the more
complex parts of inst_match to be imported in fewer places.
This makes it easier to change inst_match (for example, to
address mantis bug 264) without unintentional changes to
the rest of the compiler.

compiler/inst_test.m:
    New module containing code from inst_match.m.

compiler/check_hlds.m:
    Include the new module.

compiler/inst_match.m:
    Move code to the new module.

compiler/inst_util.m:
    Move inst_expand and inst_expand_and_remove_constrained_inst_vars
    here rather than the new module, since they make more sense here.

62ec97d443 Report imports shadowed by other imports.
If a module has two or more import_module or use_module declarations
for the same module, (typically, but not always, one being in its interface
and one in its implementation), generate an informational message about
each redundant declaration if --warn-unused-imports is enabled.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
    We used to record the set of imported/used modules, and the set of
    modules imported/used in the interface of the current module. However,
    these sets

    - did not record the distinction between imports and uses;
    - did not allow distinction between single and multiple imports/uses;
    - did not record the locations of the imports/uses.

    The first distinction was needed only by module_qual.m, which *did*
    pay attention to it; the other two were not needed at all.

    To generate messages for imports/uses shadowing other imports/uses,
    we need all three, so change the data structure storing such information
    for *direct* imports to one that records all three of the above kinds
    of information. (For imports made by read-in interface and optimization
    files, the old set of modules approach is fine, and this diff leaves
    the set of thus *indirectly* imported module names alone.)

compiler/unused_imports.m:
    Use the extra information now available to generate a
    severity_informational message about any import or use that is made
    redundant by an earlier, more general import or use.

    Fix two bugs in the code that generated warnings for just plain unused
    modules.

    (1) It did not consider that a use of the builtin type char justified
    an import of char.m, but without that import, the type is not visible.

    (2) It scanned cons_ids in goals in procedure bodies, but did not scan
    cons_ids that have been put into the const_struct_db. (I did not update
    the code here when I added the const_struct_db.)

    Also, add a (hopefully temporary) workaround for a bug in
    make_hlds_passes.m, which is noted below.

    However, there are at least three problems that prevent us from enabling
    --warn-unused-imports by default.

    (1) In some places, the import of a module is used only by clauses for
    a predicate that also has foreign procs. When compiled in a grade that
    selects one of those foreign_procs as the implementation of the predicate,
    the clauses are discarded *without* being added to the HLDS at all.
    This leads unused_imports.m to generate an uncalled-for warning in such
    cases. To fix this, we would need to preserve the Mercury clauses for
    *all* predicates, even those with foreign procs, and do all the semantic
    checks on them before throwing them away. (I tried to do this once, and
    failed, but the task should be easier after the item list change.)

    (2) We have two pieces of code to generate import warnings. The one in
    unused_imports.m operates on the HLDS after type and mode checking,
    while module_qual.m operates on the parse tree before the creation of
    the HLDS. The former is more powerful, since it knows e.g. what types and
    modes are used in the bodies of predicates, and hence can generate warnings
    about an import being unused *anywhere* in a module, as opposed to just
    unused in its interface.

    If --warn-unused-imports is enabled, we will get two separate set of
    reports about an interface import being unused in the interface,
    *unless* we get a type or mode error, in which case unused_imports.m
    won't be invoked. But in case we do get such errors, we don't want to
    throw away the warnings from module_qual.m. We could store them and
    throw them away only after we know we won't need them, or just get
    the two modules to generate identical error_specs for each warning,
    so that the sort_and_remove_dups of the error specs will do the
    throwing away for us for free, if we get that far.

    (3) The valid/bug100.m test case was added as a regression test for a bug
    that was fixed in module_qual.m. However the bug is still present in
    unused_imports.m.

compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
    Give hlds_module.m the extra information it now needs for each item_avail.

    Add an XXX for a bug that cannot be fixed right now: the setting of
    the status of abstract instances to abstract_imported. (The "abstract"
    part is correct; the "imported" part may not be.)

compiler/intermod.m:
compiler/try_expand.m:
compiler/xml_documentation.m:
    Conform to the change in hlds_module.m.

compiler/module_qual.m:
    Update the documentation of the relationship of this module
    with unused_imports.m.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
    Document a problem with the status of instance definitions.

compiler/hlds_out_module.m:
    Update the code that prints out the module_info to conform to the change
    to hlds_module.m.

    Print status information about instances, which was needed to diagnose
    one of the bugs in unused_imports.m. Format the output for instances
    nicer.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Add a convenience predicate.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Remove a type synonym that makes things harder to understand, not easier.

compiler/modules.m:
    Delete an XXX that asks for the feature this diff implements.
    Add another XXX about how that feature could be improved.

compiler/Mercury.options.m:
    Add some more modules to the list of modules on which the compiler
    should be invoked with --no-warn-unused-imports.

compiler/*.m:
library/*.m:
mdbcomp/*.m:
browser/*.m:
deep_profiler/*.m:
mfilterjavac/*.m:
    Delete unneeded imports. Many of these shadow other imports, and some
    are just plain unneeded, as shown by --warn-unused-imports. In a few
    modules, there were a *lot* of unneeded imports, but most had just
    one or two.

    In a few cases, removing an import from a module, because it *itself*
    does not need it, required adding that same import to those of its
    submodules which *do* need it.

    In a few cases, conform to other changes above.

tests/invalid/Mercury.options:
    Test the generation of messages about import shadowing on the existing
    import_in_parent.m test case (although it was also tested very thoroughly
    when giving me the information needed for the deletion of all the
    unneeded imports above).

tests/*/*.{m,*exp}:
    Delete unneeded imports, and update any expected error messages
    to expect the now-smaller line numbers.

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.

efb56544ed Speed up pred_info's setter predicates a bit.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    If the new value of a field of pred_info is likely to be bit-identical
    to the old value, then test the old and new bits for equality in the
    setter, and if they are the same, do not allocate a new pred_info
    structure that is guaranteed to be the same as the old one.

    By avoiding unnecessary memory turnover, this speeds up the compiler a bit,
    though I cannot nail down by how much. I measured it several times, with
    the results being no change, a speedup of 1%, and a speedup of 2%.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

	passed via regular registers despite their types.

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

	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.

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.

77a6a6c10c Implement several more changes that together speed up compilation time
Estimated hours taken: 16
Branches: main

Implement several more changes that together speed up compilation time
on training_cars_full by 12%, and also improve tools/speedtest -h by 7.2%
and tools/speedtest by 1.6%.

The first change is designed to eliminate the time that the compiler spends
constructing error messages that are then ignored. The working predicates of
prog_io_sym_name used to always return a single result, which either gave
a description of the thing being looked, or an error message. However,
in many places, the caller did not consider not finding the thing being looked
for to be an error, and thus threw away the error message, keeping only
the "not found" indication. For each predicate with such callers, this diff
provides a parallel predicate that indicates "not found" simply by failing.
This allows us to eliminate the construction of the error message, the
preparation for the construction of the error message (usually by describing
the context), and the construction of the "ok" wrapper.

The second change is to specialize the handling of from_ground_term_construct
scopes in the termination analyzer. To make this easier, I also cleaned up
of the infrastructure of the termination analyzer.

The third change is to avoid traversing from_ground_term_construct scopes
in quantification.m when finding the variables in a goal, since termination
analysis no longer needs the information it gathers.

The fourth change is to avoid traversing second and later conjuncts in
conjunctions twice. The first step in handling conjunctions is to call
implicitly_quantify_conj, which builds up a data structure that pairs each
conjunct with the variables that occur free in all the conjuncts following it.
However, after this was done and each conjunct was annotated with its
nonlocals, we used to compute the variables that occur free in the conjunction
as a whole from scratch. This diff changes the code so that we now compute that
set based on the information we gathered earlier, avoiding a redundant
traversal.

The fifth change is to create specialized, lower-arity versions of many of
the predicates in quantification.m. These versions are intended for traversals
that take place after the compiler has replaced lambda expressions with
references to separate procedures. These traversals do not need to pass around
arguments representing the variables occurring free in the (now non-existent)
lambda expressions.

compiler/prog_io_sym_name.m:
	Make the first change described above.

	Change some predicate names to adopt a consistent naming scheme
	in which predicates that do the same job and differ only in how they
	handle errors have names that differ only in a "try_" prefix.

	Add some predicate versions that do common tests on the output
	of the base versions. For example, try_parse_sym_name_and_no_args
	is a version of try_parse_sym_name_and_args that insists on finding
	an empty argument list.

	Remove the unused "error term" argument that we used to need a while
	ago.

	Move some predicate definitions to make their order match the order of
	their declarations.

	Turn a predicate into a function for its caller's convenience.

compiler/term_constr_build.m:
	Make the second change described above by modeling each
	from_ground_term_construct scope as a single unification,
	assigning the total size of the ground term to the variable being
	built.

compiler/term_constr_util.m:
	Put the arguments of some predicates into a more standard order.

compiler/lp_rational.m:
	Change the names of some function symbols to avoid both the use of
	graphic characters that require quoting and clashes with other types.

	Change the names of some predicates to make their purpose clear,
	and to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/quantification.m:
	Make the third, fourth and fifth changes described above.

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

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

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

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

With this diff, user-defined cons_ids are represented as

	cons(SymName, Arity, TypeCtor)

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

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

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

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

	Put the implementations of the predicates declared in each part

	in prog_data.m.

	Add a new predicate that is basically a reversible version of

cc8923b7f7 Add support for `try' goals, syntactic sugar on top of the exception handling
Branches: main

Add support for `try' goals, syntactic sugar on top of the exception handling
predicates in the standard library.  The syntax is documented in the reference
manual.  Currently one of the proposed try parameters, io(!IO), is implemented.

Try goals are implemented by *two* source-to-source transformations, one at the
parse tree level, then a later one on the HLDS.  The reason for this is given
in try_expand.m.


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

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

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

compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
	Parse try goals.

	Unrelated: fix spelling of "parameter".

compiler/add_clause.m:
	Perform the initial transformation on try goals.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add try goals to HLDS, as shorthand goals.

compiler/try_expand.m:
	New module to perform the latter transformation on try goals.

compiler/check_hlds.m:
	Import the new module.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Call the try_expand pass near the end of the front-end pass.

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

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

	Conform to parse tree changes.

edda5238a1 Fix two bugs preventing the use of or_else alternatives to atomic
transaction scopes and nested atomic scopes.

The main issue was the code assuming that the inner stm interface variables
were the same for the main goal and the or_else goals, but quantification
renames these variables to be distinct.


library/stm_builtin.m
    Rename stm_from_outer_to_inner_io and stm_from_inner_to_outer_io, dropping
    the _io suffix. They are used when the outer type is stm as well as io.

compiler/hlds_goal.m
    Add a field to the atomic_goal structure to hold the names of the STM
    interface variables used in each or_else alternative, since quantification
    renames these variables to be distinct from those used in the main atomic
    goal.

compiler/purity.m
    Insert calls to the (renamed) dummy predicates stm_from_outer_to_inner and
    stm_from_inner_to_outer regardless of the type of the outer variable,
    instead of using the nonexistent stm_from_*_to_*_stm versions when the
    outer type is stm. Also use the inner STM interface variables specific to
    each or_else alternative when generating these calls.

compiler/quantification.m
    Explicitly rename the inner STM interface variables in each of the or_else
    alternatives before calling implicitly_quantify_disj, so that the new names
    of these variables can be stored in the atomic_goal structure.

compiler/typecheck.m
    Ensure all the inner STM interface variables are typed stm, not just the
    ones in the main goal.

5ad9a27793 Speed up the compiler's handling of code that constructs large ground terms
Estimated hours taken: 80
Branches: main

Speed up the compiler's handling of code that constructs large ground terms
by specializing the treatment of such code.

This diff reduces the compilation time for training_cars_full.m from 106.9
seconds to 30.3 seconds on alys, my laptop. The time on tools/speedtest
stays pretty much the same.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Record the classification of from_ground_term scopes as purely
	constructing terms, purely deconstructing them or something other.

	Fix an old potential bug: variables inside the construct_how fields
	of unifications weren't being renamed along with other variables.
	This is a bug if any part of the compiler later looks at those
	variables. (I am not sure whether or not this happens.)

compiler/superhomogenous.m:
	Provisionally mark newly constructed static terms as being
	from_ground_term_construct. Mode checking will either confirm this
	or change the scope kind.

compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
	Add a new option, from_ground_term_threshold, that allows the user to
	set the boundary between ground terms that get scopes and ground terms
	do not. I plan to experiment with different settings later.

compiler/modes.m:
	Make this classification. For scopes that construct ground terms,
	use a specialized algorithm that avoids quadratic behavior.
	(It does not access the unify_inst_table, which is where the
	factor of N other than the length of the goal list came from.)
	The total size of the instmap_deltas, if printed out, still looks like
	O(N^2) in size, but due to structure sharing it needs only O(N) memory.

	For scopes that construct ground terms, set the determinism information
	so that det_analysis.m doesn't have to traverse such scopes.

	When handling disjunctions, check whether some nonlocals of the
	disjunctions are constructed by from_ground_term_construct scopes.
	For any such nonlocals, set their insts to just ground, throwing away
	the precise information we have about exactly what function symbols
	they and ALL their subterms are bound to. This is HUGE win, since
	it allows us avoid spending a lot of time building a huge merge_inst
	table, which later passes of the compiler (e.g. equiv_type_hlds) would
	then have to spend similarly huge times traversing.

	This approach does have a down side. If lots of arms of a disjunction
	bind a nonlocal to a large ground term, but a few bind it to a SMALL
	ground term, a term below the from_ground_term_threshold, this
	optimization won't kick in. That could be one purpose of the new
	option. It isn't documented yet; I will seek feedback about its
	usefulness first.

compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
	Handle the three different kinds of right hand sides separately.
	This yields a small speedup, because now we don't test rhs_vars and
	rhs_functors (the common right hand sides) for a special case
	(goals containing "any" insts) that is applicable only to
	rhs_lambda_goals.

compiler/unique_modes.m:
	Don't traverse scopes that construct ground terms, since modes.m has
	already done everything that needs to be done.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Don't traverse scopes that construct ground terms, since modes.m has
	already done the needed work.

compiler/instmap.m:
	Add a new predicate for use by modes.m.

	Many predicate names in this module were quite uninformative; give them
	informative names.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	If this pass invalidates the from_ground_term_construct invariants,
	then mark the relevant scope as from_ground_term_other.

	Delete two unused access predicates.

compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m:
	Don't traverse scopes that construct ground terms, since modes.m
	ensures that their instmap deltas do not contain typed insts, and
	thus the scope cannot contain types that need to be expanded.

	Convert some predicates to single clauses.

compiler/goal_form.m:
compiler/goal_util.m:
	In predicates that test goals for various properties, don't traverse
	scopes that construct ground terms when the outcome of the test
	is the same for all such scopes.

	Convert some predicates to single clauses.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Do not look for common structs in from_ground_term_construct scopes,
	both because this speeds up the compiler, and because retaining
	references to ground terms is in fact a pessimization, not an
	optimization. This is because (a) those references need to be stored in
	stack slots across calls, and (b) the C code generators ensure that
	the cells representing ground terms will be shared as needed.

	If all arms of a switch are from_ground_term_construct scopes,
	do not merge the instmap_deltas from those arms, since this is
	both time-consuming (even after the other changes in this diff)
	and extremely unlikely to improve the instmap_delta.

	Disable common_struct in from_ground_term_construct scopes,
	since for these scopes, it is actually a pessimization.

	Do not delete from_ground_term_construct scopes, since many
	compiler passes can now use them.

	Do some manual deforestation, break up some large predicates,
	and give better names to some.

compiler/liveness.m
	Special-case the handling from_ground_term_construct scopes. This
	allows us to traverse them just once instead of three times, and this
	traversal is simpler and faster than any of the three.

	In some traversals, we were switching on the goal type twice; once
	in e.g. detect_liveness_in_goal_2, and once by calling
	goal_expr_has_subgoals. Eliminate the double switching by merging
	the relevant predicates. (The double-switching structure was easier
	to work with before we had multi-cons-id switches.)

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Move a lookup after a test, so we don't have to do it if the test
	fails.

	Provide a specialized mode for a predicate. This should allow the
	compiler to eliminate an argument and a test in the common case.

	Note a possible chance for a speedup.

compiler/typecheck_info.m:
	Don't apply empty substitutions to the types of a possibly very large
	set of variables.

compiler/quantification.m:
	Don't quantify from_ground_term_construct scopes. They are created
	correctly quantified, and any compiler pass that invalidates that
	quantification also removes the from_ground_term_construct mark.

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

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

	Make some predicate names better reflect what the predicate does.

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

compiler/pd_info.m:
	Add prefixes on field names to avoid ambiguities.

8424003542 Fix an old bug in the transformation that implements dependent parallel
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main

Fix an old bug in the transformation that implements dependent parallel
conjunctions. The bug occurred when some arms of a branched control structure
consumed a shared variable, and some arms didn't. For code like this

	q(X::in, Y::in, Z::out) :-
	    ( Y = 2 ->
		A = Y
	    ;
		A = X
	    ),
	    Z = X + A

where X is a shared variable in a conjunction that calls q, the transformation
yielded code that waited for the future version of X only in the else branch,
not in the then branch. Since each wait was the producer of X from FutureX,
this led directly to a mode inconsistency between the branches, and hence
to a compiler crash.

The main part of the fix is to make sure that the code that inserts waits into
branched goals always inserts the wait either into every branch (if the
variable is consumed by at least one branch), or into no branch (if no branch
consumes the variable).

The other part of the fix is to replace the code which tried to ensure,
in a general sort of way, the invariant that the conjuncts of a parallel
conjunction should not have any of their shared variables in their nonlocal
set, with code that directly ensures that shared variables are always renamed
in their consuming conjuncts. Unlike the earlier approach, this approach
generates code that is obviously correct by construction. It also takes
much less code to implement, and should take less compilation time.

compiler/dep_par_conj.m:
	Implement the fixes above.

	Separate out the different parts of the transformation. For each
	part, pass around only the information that part requires, document
	which parts of this information are read-only. Give more descriptive
	names to each function, including using a distinct set of prefixes
	for different parts of the transformation.

	Improve the documentation.

	Remove the code that used to handle the case of grades that do not
	support parallel conjunctions, since it cluttered up other code.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Check just once whether the grade supports parallel conjunctions.
	If not, call the code in a new module parallel_to_plain_conj.

	The dep_par_conj pass creates specialized versions of procedures
	and redirects calls to them, so it may leave the original versions
	without any calls and thus dead, so invoke the dead procedure
	elimination pass immediately after it.

	Move the final dead procedure elimination pass *after* the dep_par_conj
	pass, and after some some other passes (that may also create dead
	procedures).

compiler/parallel_to_plain_conj.m:
	Downgrade all parallel conjunctions to plain conjunctions.

compiler/transform_hlds.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.m:
	Add the new module.

compiler/dead_proc_elim.m:
	Rename the parameter of the main procedure of this module to avoid
	a false dichotomy (the invocation of dead_proc_elim after the
	dep_par_conj pass is neither for warnings nor a final optimization).

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Give a predicate a more meaningful name. Export a predicate for use by
	dep_par_conj.

compiler/pd_util.m:
	Rename some predicates to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/deforest.m:
compiler/delay_partial_inst.m:

	Conform to the change to goal_util and/or pd_util.

7460aadbf8 Implement higher-order any' insts. Pred or func expressions with an any'
Estimated hours taken: 100
Branches: main

Implement higher-order `any' insts.  Pred or func expressions with an `any'
inst may bind non-local solver variables, but themselves must not be
called in a negated context.  (The existing ground pred and func expressions
may not bind non-local solver variables, but may be called in a negated
context.)

Higher-order `any' insts are specified by using `any_pred' and `any_func'
in place of `pred' and `func', respectively.

We implement these insts by adding a new field to the any/1 constructor of
mer_inst, which is identical to the ground_inst_info field of the ground/2
constructor.  Both are given the new type `ho_inst_info'.  We then relax the
locking of non-local variables in these pred and func expressions, and extend
call/N and apply/N to also accept the new insts (provided the variables are
not locked).

We also store the groundness (ho_ground or ho_any) of each lambda expression
in a unification, in a new field in the rhs_lambda_goal constructor.

NEWS:
	Mention the new feature.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Rename the ground_inst_info type ho_inst_info, and update its
	documentation.

	Add the ho_inst_info field to the any constructor in mer_inst.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add the rhs_groundness field to rhs_lambda_goal in unify_rhs.

compiler/inst_match.m:
	Propagate inst matching into the pred_inst_infos of any insts,
	if they exist.

compiler/inst_util.m:
	Propagate abstract unification and inst merging into the
	pred_inst_infos of any insts, if they exist.  May use of this
	information when building ground, any, shared and mostly_unique
	versions of insts.

compiler/modecheck_call.m:
	Allow an `any' inst as the pred (func) argument to call/N (apply/N),
	but check that the variable is not locked.  If the variable is
	locked, report a mode error which suggests using the ground inst.
	(We could also suggest that the goal be made impure, but it is
	best to point users towards the pure approach.)

compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
	Relax the locking of non-locals when processing non-ground lambda
	goals.

	Update documentation.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Propagate type information into the pred_inst_infos of any insts.

compiler/mode_errors.m:
	Change the purity error "lambda should be impure" to "lambda
	should be any", since this is better advice.  Also provide an
	example of correct syntax if the verbose errors option is given.

compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
	Parse the new kinds of expressions, returning the groundness along
	with the existing information about lambda expressions.

compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
	Use the above groundness when building the lambda unification.

compiler/prog_io_util.m:
	Parse the new kind of insts, filling in the new ho_inst_info field
	where appropriate.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Handle the new fields.  Assume that the shorthand form of lambda
	expressions always defines a ground inst -- if users want non-ground
	higher-order expressions they will need to use an explicit any_pred
	or any_func expression.

compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m:
	Replace equivalent types in the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts.

compiler/module_qual.m:
	Module qualify the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts.

compiler/recompilation.usage.m:
compiler/unused_imports.m:
	Look for items or imports used by insts in the pred_inst_infos of
	`any' insts.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Output the new lambda expressions and insts in the correct format.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Treat all pred and func types as solver types.  (Effectively they
	are, since all such types can now have non-ground values, with
	call/N and apply/N acting as constraints.)

compiler/lambda.m:
	Pass the groundness value when building procedures for lambda
	expressions.  This is not currently required for anything.

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

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

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

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

	Handle the new fields.

cc88711d63 Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate
Estimated hours taken: 40
Branches: main

Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate
more than one cons_id with a switch arm. Previously, for switches like this:

	(
		X = a,
		goal1
	;
		( X = b
		; X = c
		),
		goal2
	)

we duplicated goal2. With this diff, goal2 won't be duplicated. We still
duplicate goals when that is necessary, i.e. in cases which the inner
disjunction contains code other than a functor test on the switched-on var,
like this:

	(
		X = a,
		goal1
	;
		(
			X = b,
			goalb
		;
			X = c
			goalc
		),
		goal2
	)

For now, true multi-cons_id arm switches are supported only by the LLDS
backend. Supporting them on the MLDS backend is trickier, because some MLDS
target languages (e.g. Java) don't support the concept at all. So when
compiling to MLDS, we still duplicate the goal in switch detection (although
we could delay the duplication to just before code generation, if we wanted.)

compiler/options.m:
	Add an internal option that tells switch detection whether to look for
	multi-cons_id switch arms.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Set this option based on the back end.

	Add a version of the "trans" dump level that doesn't print unification
	details.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Extend the representation of switch cases to allow more than one
	cons_id for a switch arm.

	Add a type for representing switches that also includes tag information
	(for use by the backends).

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	For du types, record whether it is possible to speed up tests for one
	cons_id (e.g. cons) by testing for the other (nil) and negating the
	result. Recording this information once is faster than having
	unify_gen.m trying to compute it from scratch for every single
	tag test.

	Add a type for representing a cons_id together with its tag.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Print out the cheaper_tag_test information for types, and possibly
	several cons_ids for each switch arm.

	Add some utility predicates for describing switch arms in terms of
	which cons_ids they are for.

	Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types.

	Make hlds_out honor is documentation, and not print out detailed
	information about unifications (e.g. uniqueness and static allocation)
	unless the right character ('u') is present in the control string.

compiler/add_type.m:
	Fill in the information about cheaper tag tests when adding a du type.

compiler/switch_detection.m:
	Extend the switch detection algorithm to detect multi-cons_id switch
	arms.

	When entering a switch arm, update the instmap to reflect that the
	switched-on variable can now be bound only to the cons_ids that this
	switch arm is for. We now need to do this, because if the arm contains
	another switch on the same variable, computing the can_fail field of
	that switch correctly requires us to know this information.
	(Obviously, an arm for a single cons_id is unlikely to have switch on
	the same variable, and for arms for several cons_ids, we previously
	duplicated the arm and left the unification with the cons_id in each
	copy, and this unification allowed the correct handling of any later
	switches. However, the code of a multi-cons_id switch arm obviously
	cannot have a unification with each cons_id in it, which is why
	we now need to get the binding information from the switch itself.)

	Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types, and give some
	predicates better names.

compiler/instmap.m:
	Provide predicates for recording that a switched-on variable has
	one of several given cons_ids, for use at the starts of switch arms.

	Give some predicates better names.

compiler/modes.m:
	Provide predicates for updating the mode_info at the start of a
	multi-cons_id switch arm.

compiler/det_report.m:
	Handle multi-cons_id switch arms.

	Update the instmap when entering each switch arm, since this is needed
	to provide good (i.e. non-misleading) error messages when one switch on
	a variable exists inside another switch on the same variable.

	Since updating the instmap requires updating the module_info (since
	the new inst may require a new entry in an inst table), thread the
	det_info through as updateable state.

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

	Fix some misleading variable names.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Update the instmap when entering each switch arm and thread the
	det_info through as updateable state, since the predicates we call
	in det_report.m require this.

compiler/det_util.m:
	Handle multi-cons_id switch arms.

	Rationalize the argument order of some access predicates.

compiler/switch_util.m:
	Change the parts of this module that deal with string and tag switches
	to optionally convert each arm to an arbitrary representation of the
	arm. In the LLDS backend, the conversion process generated code for
	the arm, and the arm's representation is the label at the start of
	this code. This way, we can duplicate the label without duplicating
	the code.

	Add a new part of this module that associates each cons_id with its
	tag, and (during the same pass) checks whether all the cons_ids are
	integers, and if so what are min and max of these integers (needed
	for dense switches). This scan is needed because the old way of making
	this test had single-cons_id switch arms as one of its basic
	assumptions, and doing it while adding tags to each case reduces
	the number of traversals required.

	Give better names to some predicates.

compiler/switch_case.m:
	New module to handle the tasks associated with managing multi-cons_id
	switch arms, including representing them for switch_util.m.

compiler/ll_backend.m:
	Include the new module.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Note the new module.

compiler/llds.m:
	Change the computed goto instruction to take a list of maybe labels
	instead of a list of labels, with any missing labels meaning "not
	reached".

compiler/string_switch.m:
compiler/tag_switch.m:
	Reorganize the way these modules work. We can't generate the code of
	each arm in place anymore, since it is now possible for more than one
	cons_id to call for the execution of the same code. Instead, in
	string_switch.m, we generate the codes of all the arms all at once,
	and construct the hash index afterwards. (This approach simplifies
	the code significantly.)

	In tag switches (unlike string switches), we can get locality benefits
	if the code testing for a cons_id is close to the code for that
	cons_id, so we still try to put them next to each other when such
	a locality benefit is available.

	In both modules, the new approach uses a utility predicate in
	switch_case.m to actually generate the code of each switch arm,
	eliminating several copies the same code in the old versions of these
	modules.

	In tag_switch.m, don't create a local label that simply jumps to the
	code address do_not_reached. Previously, we had to do this for
	positions in jump tables that corresponded to cons_ids that the switch
	variable could not be bound to. With the change to llds.m, we now
	simply generate a "no" instead.

compiler/lookup_switch.m:
	Get the info about int switch limits from our caller; don't compute it
	here.

	Give some variables better names.

compiler/dense_switch.m:
	Generate the codes of the cases all at once, then assemble the table,
	duplicate the labels as needed. This separation of concerns allows
	significant simplifications.

	Pack up all the information shared between the predicate that detects
	whether a dense switch is appropriate and the predicate that actually
	generates the dense switch.

	Move some utility predicates to switch_util.

compiler/switch_gen.m:
	Delete the code for tagging cons_ids, since that functionality is now
	in switch_util.m.

	The old version of this module could call the code generator to produce
	(i.e. materialize) the switched-on variable repeatedly. We now produce
	the variable once, and do the switch on the resulting rval.

compiler/unify_gen.m:
	Use the information about cheaper tag tests in the type constructor's
	entry in the HLDS type table, instead of trying to recompute it
	every time.

	Provide the predicates switch_gen.m now needs to perform tag tests
	on rvals, as opposed to variables, and against possible more than one
	cons_id.

	Allow the caller to provide the tag corresponding to the cons_id(s)
	in tag tests, since when we are generating code for switches, the
	required computations have already been done.

	Factor out some code to make all this possible.

	Give better names to some predicates.

compiler/code_info.m:
	Provide some utility predicates for the new code in other modules.
	Give better names to some existing predicates.

compiler/hlds_code_util.m:
	Rationalize the argument order of some predicates.

Add new fields to the goal_info structure for region based memory management.
The fields are currently unused, but (a) Quan will add the code to fill them
in, and then (b) I will modify the code generator to use the filled in fields.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Make the change described above.

	Group all the procedures that access goal_info components together.
	Some of the getters were predicates while some were functions, so
	this diff changes them all to be functions. (The setters remain
	predicates.)

compiler/*.m:
	Trivial changes to conform to the change in hlds_goal.m.

	In simplify.m, break up a huge (800+ line) predicate into smaller
	pieces.

Estimated hours taken: 30
Branches: main

Add a post-processing pass directly after mode checking that tries to transform
procedures to avoid intermediate partially instantiated data structures.  The
Erlang backend in particular cannot handle partially instantiated data
structures.

compiler/delay_partial_inst.m:
	New module.

compiler/check_hlds.m:
	Import delay_partial_inst.m

compiler/modes.m:
	Call the delay partial instantiations pass after mode checking succeeds
	if it is enabled.

compiler/options.m:
	Add a new internal option `--delay-partial-instantiations', disabled by
	default.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Make Erlang target imply --delay-partial-instantiations.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Mention delay_partial_inst.m

tests/hard_coded/delay_partial_test.m:
tests/hard_coded/delay_partial_test2.exp:
tests/hard_coded/delay_partial_test2.m:
	Add test cases for --delay-partial-instantiations.

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Fix a comment.
