07f877bc3f Carve term_context.m out of term.m.
library/term.m:
library/term_context.m:
    As above.

    Rename the term.context type as term_context.term_context, with
    term.context now being defined as an equivalence type.

    Replace the context_init function and predicate and the dummy_context_init
    function with just one function: dummy_context. This name includes
    the important part (the fact that it return a *dummy* context) and deletes
    the nonimportant part (dummy contexts are just about never updated,
    so the function does not really "initialize" them).

    Reduce function/predicate pairs that do the same thing to just a function.

library/MODULES_DOC:
library/library.m:
    Add the new module to the list of standard library modules.

NEWS:
    Mention the new module, and the obsoleting of the moved predicates
    and functions in term.m.

9ba0dca846 Describe pred_origins separarely for users & devs.
compiler/pred_name.m:
    Replace pred_info_id_to_string, which was intended to generate ids
    of predicates for both users and developers, with two predicates,
    pred_origin_to_{user,dev}_string, that each target only one audience.
    The version for developers includes all the details that compiler
    developers may need, while the version for users does not, since
    it is just useless clutter from their point view.

    The new versions also take only a pred_origin as input, not the whole
    pred_info containing the pred_origin. This is needed, because for
    the base predicate whose transformation a pred_origin may record,
    we have *only* its pred_origin, not its pred_info.

    Record more information for some pred_origins. Record the promise type
    for predicates created for assertions (which we can longer look up
    in the pred_info). And record the file name and line number of
    initialise and finalise declarations, since a development wouldn't like
    being told "this is a predicate that implements an initialise declaration"
    if the module contained more than one, and the difference actually
    mattered.

    Switch from record pred_form arities to user arities for the pred_origins
    of tabling aux predicates, for consistency with other pred_origins.

compiler/hlds_out_util.m:
    Make the corresponding changes to the functions that used to call
    pred_info_id_to_string.

    Use pred_origin_to_dev_string to identify procedures that some cons_ids
    can refer to, since those cons_ids can appear only in compiler-generated
    code, which is of interest only to developers.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Switch from record pred_form arities to user arities for the parse_tree
    version of pred_origins of tabling aux predicates.

compiler/prog_out.m:
    Provide versions of some functions that do not put quotes around
    the sym_names when converting them to strings. The
    pred_origin_to_dev_string does not want quotes, because our use of
    unmatched quotes `' can screw up syntax highlighting in HLDS dumps.

5cada10369 Rename pred_table to pred_id_table.
compiler/pred_table.m:
    As above. This addresses half of an old XXX, which is that the two types
    defined in this module, predicate_table and pred_table (as it was then)
    should have names that (a) say what they do, and (b) are distinct.
    Addressing the other half requires a more descriptive but not-too-long
    name to replace "predicate_table".

    Rename the predicates that operate on the type to follow the name change.

    Add a distinguishing prefix to the names of the fields of the
    predicate_table type.

    Conform to the change in pred_table.m.

    Refer to values of the renamed type using a consistent naming scheme.

    When the affected code repeats the body of existing helper predicates
    for lookup up a pred_info or proc_info, or updating a proc_info
    inside a pred_info, or updating a pred_info inside a module_info,
    call the helper predicate instead. This makes code shorter and less
    cluttered, and the use of the helper predicates for updates automatically
    ensures that we don't accidentally update a stale version of the relevant
    table. (This has sometimes been a problem in the past.)

    In a few places, carve a new predicate for processing one element
    of a list out of an existing predicate for processing all list elements.

40725f170e Replace ten int cons_ids with one.
We currently have one function symbol in the cons_id type for each
of our ten types of integer constants: signed vs unsigned, and
word-sized, 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit. In most places in the compiler,
these are all treated the same, and it gets tedious to have to write
the same logic ten times. This diff therefore changes things so that
the distinction between int constants of these ten types is pushed
to one level lower than the cons_id type.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Replace the ten cons_ids {int,uint}{,8,16,32,64}_const with just one,
    some_int_const, whose argument now has those function symbols.

    Add some utility functions on integer constants.

compiler/prog_out.m:
    Add a utility predicate for converting int constants to strings.

compiler/parse_tree_to_term.m:
    Add a utility predicate for converting int constants to terms.

4d14d48991 Use an enum to identify impl defined literals.
compiler/prog_data.m:
    Replace the cons_id impl_defined_const(string), where the string
    has only five legal values, with a impl_defined_const() wrapped
    around an enum with those five values. This makes some illegal states
    unrepresentable.

compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
    Make the predicate that converts term.implementation_defined functors
    to cons_ids check for the five legal strings, convert each to its
    enum value, and return an error message instead of a cons_id if the
    string is *not* one of the permitted five.

    Delete the code moved to parse_util.m (see the next entry).

compiler/prog_util.m:
    There was another predicate in prog_util.m that also converted
    term functors to cons_ids, which had to be kept in sync
    with the code in superhomogeneous.m that did the same job.
    The version in prog_util.m, even though it had code to handle
    all term functors, was only ever called from parse_inst_mode_name.m,
    which called it *only* on integer, float and string constants.

    Converting float and string functors to cons_ids is trivial,
    but converting integer functors is not, due to our support for
    ten different kinds of integers. However, instead of updating
    the integer conversion code in both superhomogeneous.m and prog_util.m,
    replace both with a single predicate. Since this predicate does
    a parsing job, and is used only during the construction of the
    initial HLDS, put it in parse_util.m.

compiler/parse_util.m:
    Base this unified predicate on the code that used to be in
    superhomogeneous.m since this is the only one that can generate
    error messages for integer constants that are outside the range
    of their type.

compiler/parse_inst_mode_name.m:
    Conform to the changes above. The code in parse_util.m now generates
    an error message if an integer const in a bound inst is too big
    to be represented by its type, which is much better than the
    compiler abort by the now-deleted code in prog_util.m that such
    code would have resulted in.

tests/invalid/undef_impl_def_literal.err_exp:
    Expect the error message from the new code in superhomogeneous.m
    for $nosuchthing, instead of the generic error message about
    "undefined symbol `$nosuchthing' (which implicitly implies that
    the error could be fixed by *defining* $nosuchthing).

9a909ddc7f Avoid misleading occurs check warnings.
compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
    Record a unification between X and f(Yi) as possibly leading to
    an occurs check warning only if f is known to be a data constructor,
    either user defined or the builtin tuple constructor.

compiler/hlds_cons.m:
    Add a version of the search_cons_table predicate that does not construct
    the list of hlds_cons_defns that match the given cons_id. The new code
    in superhomogeneous.m needs to know whether a cons_id is a known data
    constructor, but it does not need to know its matching definitions,
    and constructing that list is reasonably expensive when it has to be
    executed for every single function symbol in every clause.

    Add some documentation of the existing predicates, and separate their
    implementations from each other with lines.

tests/warnings/occurs.{m,exp}:
    Extend this test case both with a unifications we should warn about
    (a circular unification whose top level cons_id is a tuple constructor)
    and one we should not warn about (when the cons_is is NOT a data
    constructor of any kind).

f519e26173 Add builtin 64-bit integer types -- Part 1.
Add the new builtin types: int64 and uint64.

Support for these new types will need to be bootstrapped over several changes.
This is the first such change and does the following:

- Extends the compiler to recognise 'int64' and 'uint64' as builtin types.
- Extends the set of builtin arithmetic, bitwise and relational operators
  to cover the new types.
- Adds the new internal option '--unboxed-int64s' to the compiler; this will be
  used to control whether 64-bit integer types are boxed or not.
- Extends all of the code generators to handle the new types.
- Extends the runtimes to support the new types.
- Adds new modules to the standard library intend to contain basic operations
  on the new types.  (These are currently empty and not documented.)

There are bunch of limitations marks with "XXX INT64"; these will be lifted in
part 2 of this change.  Also, 64-bit integer types are currently always boxed,
again this limitation will be lifted in later changes.

8a240ba3f0 Add builtin 8, 16 and 32 bit integer types -- Part 1.
Add the new builtin types: int8, uint8, int16, uint16, int32 and uint32.
Support for these new types will need to be bootstrapped over several changes.
This is the first such change and does the following:

- Extends the compiler to recognise 'int8', 'uint8', 'int16', 'uint16', 'int32'
  and 'uint32' as builtin types.
- Extends the set of builtin arithmetic, bitwise and relational operators to
  cover the new types.
- Extends all of the code generators to handle new types.  There currently lots
  of limitations and placeholders marked by 'XXX FIXED SIZE INT'.  These will
  be lifted in later changes.
- Extends the runtimes to support the new types.
- Adds new modules to the standard library intended to hold the basic

092e175f45 Add a builtin unsigned word sized integer type -- Part 1.
Add a new builtin type: uint, which is an unsigned word sized integer type.
Support for this new type will need be bootstrapped over several changes.
This is the first such change and does the following:

- Extends the compiler to recognize 'uint' as a builtin type.
- Extends the set of builtin operations to include relational and (some)
  arithmetic operations on uints.
- Extends all of the code generators to handle the above.  There are some
  limitations currently marked by 'XXX UINT'.  These will be lifted once
  the compiler recognised uint and additional library support becomes
  available.
- Extends the runtime to support uints.

compiler/prog_type.m:
compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
    Recognize uint as a builtin type.

    Add a new alternative to the cons_id/0 type corresponding to the uint type
    -- for bootstrapping purposes its argument is currently an int.

compiler/builtin_ops.m:
    Add builtin relational and arithmetic operations on uints.  Note that the
    existing 'unsigned_le' operation is actually intended for use with signed
    values.  Rather than attempt to modify its meaning, I have just added new
    operations specific to the uint type.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
    Add a new tag type for uints.

8a6ffaab19 Fix Mantis bug #354.
I/O tabling has two main purposes. The first and more important is to allow the
debugger to replay parts of the program execution for the programmer, which
requires making I/O operations idempotent (so that we get the same results on
the second, third etc "execution" as on the first). The second purpose is to
let the person using the debugger actually see a list of the I/O actions, and
their results.

The root of the problem here is that the compiler can do the second part
only if it has access to the type_infos describing the types of the arguments
of the I/O action. With the current infrastructure for representing typeclass
information, this is not always possible in the presence of typeclass
constraints on I/O action predicates. The reason is that polymorphism.m can
put the typeinfo for a type variable that is subject to a typeclass constraint
arbitrarily deep inside the typeclass_info for that constraint, but the RTTI
can encode such locations only up to a fixed depth (currently only the
shallowest embedded is encodable).

Before this fix, the test case for this bug got a compiler abort when the
I/O tabling transformation tried to figure out how to table the typeclass
info representing the typeclass constraint on a I/O action predicate.

We still cannot table typeclass infos. We could store them (I/O tabling
does not require anything more complicated), but the problem of deeply buried
typeinfos inside them would still remain. So this fix consists of two parts:

- for typeclass constrained I/O primitives, recording only enough information
  to allow them to replayed (the first purpose above), and not to print them
  out (the second purpose), and
- getting the runtime system to understand this, and not crash with a core dump
  in the absence of the information required for the second purpose.

This second part requires changes to the RTTI used by I/O tabling. These
changes BREAK BINARY COMPATIBILITY in debug grades.

runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
    Rename the MR_TableIoDecl structure as the MR_TableIoEntry structure,
    since the I/O table entries that it describes are used not just for
    declarative debugging, but also for printing out I/O actions.

    Add a field to it that specifies whether the fields describing
    the types of the I/O action's arguments are meaningful.

runtime/mercury_grade.h:
    Bump the debug-only binary compatibility version number, since
    the change to mercury_stack_layout.h requires it.

runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]:
    When returning information about a tabled I/O action, return a boolean
    that says whether the information abouts its arguments is actually
    present or not. Do not return information about the arguments if
    we cannot convert them into univs due to missing type information.

browser/io_action.m:
    Pay attention to the new info returned by MR_trace_get_action,
    and avoid a potential core dump by generating a description of the
    requested I/O action only if the argument type information needed
    to generate that description is actually available.

trace/mercury_trace_vars.c:
    Pay attention to the new info returned by MR_trace_get_action.
    When the argument type information needed to generate an accurate
    description of the I/O action is not available, generate a
    "description" that mentions this fact.

trace/mercury_trace_cmd_browsing.c:
    Make the fix to mercury_trace_vars.c easier to test by adding a mechanism
    to print out all existing I/O actions, as long as there aren't too many
    of them.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:

    of its arguments at runtime.

884838b9df If the backend supports constant structures, and we do not need unifications
Estimated hours taken: 8
Branches: main

If the backend supports constant structures, and we do not need unifications
to retain their original shapes, then convert each from_ground_term scope
into a unification with a cons_id that represents the ground term being
built up.

This speeds up the compilation of training_cars_full.m by about 6%.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Make the conversion if enabled. By doing the conversion in this phase,
	we don't have to teach the semantic analysis passes about unifications
	with the new cons_id, but we do get the benefit of later passes being
	faster, because they have less code to process.

compiler/const_struct.m:
	The declarative debugger does not yet know how to handle the new
	cons_id, so do not introduce it if we are preparing for declarative
	debugging.

compiler/trace_params.m:
	Export a predicate for const_struct.m.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add the new cons_id, ground_term_const.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add the tag of the new cons_id, ground_term_const_tag.

compiler/hlds_code_util.m:
	Convert the new cons_id to the new cons_tag.

	Fix an old problem with that conversion process: it always converted
	tuple_cons to single_functor_tag. However, arity-zero tuples are
	(dummy) constants, not heap cells, so we now convert them to a (dummy)
	integer tag. This matters now because the process that generates
	code (actually data) for constant structures handles the cons_tags that
	build constants and heap cells separately. As a side benefit, we
	no longer reserve a word-sized heap cell for arity-zero tuples.

compiler/unify_gen.m:
compiler/ml_unify_gen.m:
	Implement the generation of code for arbitrary constant structures,
	not just those that can implement typeinfos and typeclass_infos.

compiler/term_norm.m:

	Manage the computation of sizes of ground terms.

	Simplify and thereby speed up a predicate.

compiler/term_constr_build.m:
	Note that we should manage the computation of sizes of ground terms.

	Simplify the style of a predicate.

ee63cb8d84 Heavily polymorphic code, such as that generated by g12, often builds the same
Estimated hours taken: 80
Branches: main

Heavily polymorphic code, such as that generated by g12, often builds the same
typeinfos and typeclass infos over and over again. We have long had caches
that avoid building a new typeinfo or typeclass info if some variable in the
current scope already contains the right value, but a program that has many
scopes may still build the same typeinfo or typeclass info many times.
If that typeinfo or typeclass info is a ground term, the code generators
will recognize that fact, and will turn all the constructions of that ground
term in different scopes into referencess to the same constant structure.
However, in the meantime, the program can be much bigger than necessary.
In the motivating test case for this change, a single call to fdic_post
is preceded by 133 goals that build the four typeclass infos it needs.

The main idea of this diff is to construct constant typeinfos and typeclass
infos out of line, in a separate data structure. Polymorphism then binds
variables representing typeinfo and typeclass infos to reference to these
constant structures. In the motivating example, this allows polymorphism.m
to insert just four goals before the call to fdic_post, the minimal possible
number: one for each typeclass info that predicate needs.

On Leslie's bug344 program, this change speeds up the compiler by a factor
of five to eight (reducing compile time from about 80 or 85 seconds to
10 or 15).

There is a drawback to this scheme, but it is minor. That drawback is that
once a constant structure is entered into our database of constant structures,
it cannot (yet) be removed. Even if all the references to a constant structure
are eliminated by optimizations, the structure will remain.

------------------------------------------

CHANGES IN THE FRONT END

compiler/const_struct.m:
	A new module to look after our new database of constant structures.
	Currently, its use is enable only on the LLDS and MLDS C backends.

compiler/hlds.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Add the new module to the HLDS package.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Include the constant structure database in the module_info.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add two new cons_ids, which refer to typeinfos and typeclass infos
	implemented as constant structures.

	Move the code for calculating the number of extra instance args
	in base_typeclass_infos here from base_typeclass_info.m, since
	polymorphism.m now needs it too. We can now also eliminate the
	duplicate copy of that code in higher_order.m.

	Make an independent optimization: make the restrict_list_elements
	function more efficient by avoiding redundant tests.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	When building typeinfo and typeclass infos, keep track of whether
	the structure being built is constant. If it is, then put it in the
	database of constant structures, and replace the code building it
	with a simple reference to that new entry.

	Since I now expect most goal sequences inserted before goals to be
	short, consistent use lists of goals to represent these, since the
	costs of conversions to and from cord form are unlikely to be paid back
	by the higher efficiency of cord operations on longer sequences.

	When we want to get the typeclass info of a superclass out of the
	typeclass info of a subclass, if the typeclass info of the subclass
	is known, do the extraction here. We used to do this optimization
	only in higher_order.m, but doing so here reduces the size of the HLDS
	between polymorphism.m and higher_order.m, and thus improves
	compilation time.

	Reorganize some of the structure of this module to make the above
	changes possible. In particular, our new approach requires making
	snapshots of the varsets and vartypes, and later restoring those
	snapshots if the variables allocated turn out to be unnecessary,
	due to all of them describing the components of a constant structure.
	The correctness of such code is much easier to check if the taking
	and restoring of each snapshot takes places in a single predicate.

	Remove the code moved to higher_order.m.

	Add some debugging code for now. If no issues arise in the next few
	weeks, it can be deleted.

compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
	Treat unifications whose right hand side has a cons_id referring to a
	constant structure specially.

compiler/base_typeclass_info.m:
	Replace the code that is now in num_extra_instance_args with a call
	to that predicate.

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

compiler/higher_order.m:
	When looking up the components of existing typeclass infos, handle
	cases where those typeclass infos are constant structures.

	Give some types, fields and variables better names.

	Avoid a redundant map search.

	Avoid some redundant tests by providing separate predicates to handle
	higher order calls and method calls.

	Move the predicate is_typeclass_info_manipulator here from
	polymorphism.m, since this is the only module that uses that predicate.

------------------------------------------

CHANGES IN THE LLDS BACKEND:

compiler/llds.m:
	Add a type to map constant structure numbers to rvals together with
	their LLDS types.

	Introduce a type to represent rvals together with their LLDS types.

compiler/mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m:
	Before we generate code for the predicates of the module, convert
	the constant structures to typed LLDS rvals. Create a map mapping
	each constant structure number to the corresponding typed rvals.

compiler/proc_gen.m:
	Take that map, and put it into the code_info, to allow references
	to those structures to be translated.

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

compiler/code_info.m:
	Include a map giving the representation of each constant structure
	in the code_info.

compiler/unify_gen.m:
	Add the predicates needed to convert the constant structures of a
	module to LLDS rvals. For now, this code works only on the kinds of
	constant structures generated by polymorphism.m.

	Handle unifications whose right hand side is a reference to a constant
	structure.

compiler/global_data.m:
compiler/stack_layout.m:
	Use the new typed_rval type where relevant.

------------------------------------------

CHANGES IN THE MLDS BACKEND:

compiler/ml_proc_gen.m:
	Before we generate code for the predicates of the module, convert
	the constant structures to typed MLDS rvals. Create a map mapping
	each constant structure number to the corresponding typed rvals.

	Factor out some code into a predicate of its own.

compiler/ml_gen_info.m:
	Include a map giving the representation of each constant structure
	in the ml_gen_info.

	Also add to the ml_gen_info an indication of what GC system we are
	generating code for, since the code generator needs to know this often.

compiler/ml_unify_gen.m:
	Add the predicates needed to convert the constant structures of a
	module to MLDS rvals. For now, this code works only on the kinds of
	constant structures generated by polymorphism.m.

	Handle unifications whose right hand side is a reference to a constant
	structure.

	Simplify some existing code.

------------------------------------------

MINOR CHANGES:

mdbcomp/prim_data.m:
	Add a predicate that gets both the module name and the base name
	from a sym_name at the same time. This is used for minor speedups
	in other code updated in this diff.

compiler/dead_proc_elim.m:
	Scan constant structures for references to entities that need to be
	kept alive.

compiler/term_constr_build.m:
compiler/term_traversal.m:
	Do not build size constraints from references to constant structures.
	The sizes of constant terms don't change, so they are irrelevant
	when building constraints for finding argument size changes.

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.

	Update code which extracts closure arguments to take account the
	arguments being reordered in the hidden arguments vector.

543fc6e342 Change the way the typechecker iterates over the predicates of the program.
Estimated hours taken: 12
Branches: main

Change the way the typechecker iterates over the predicates of the program.
We used to do it by looking up each predicate in the module_info,
typechecking it, and putting it back into the module_info. We now do it
by converting the predicate table into a list, iterating over the list
transforming each pred_info in it, converting the updated list back to
a predicate table.

The original intention of this change was to allow different predicates
to be typechecked in parallel by removing a synchronization bottleneck:
the typechecking of a predicate now doesn't have to wait for the typechecking
of the previous predicate to generate the updated version of the module_info.
However, it turned out that the change is good for sequential execution
as well, improving the time on tools/speedtest from 11.33 seconds to 11.08
seconds, a speedup of 2.2%. On tools/speedtest -l, which tests the compilation
of more modules, the speedup is even better: 3.1% (from 32.63 to 31.60s).

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

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

This mechanism consists of two options:

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

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

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

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

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

	Add a predicate that tests for non-contiguity.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

With this diff, user-defined cons_ids are represented as

	cons(SymName, Arity, TypeCtor)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
compiler/parse_tree.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	New module to centralize knowledge about builtin types, specially

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.

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