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.

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.
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out_clause.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out_inst.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out_pragma.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out_pred_decl.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out_term.m:
compiler/parse_tree_out_type_repn.m:
Change the code writing out parse trees to explicitly pass a stream
to every predicate that does output.
In some places, this allows us to avoid changing the identity
of the current output stream.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
compiler/hlds_out_goal.m:
compiler/hlds_out_mode.m:
compiler/hlds_out_module.m:
compiler/hlds_out_pred.m:
compiler/hlds_out_util.m:
compiler/intermod.m:
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
slighly different set of blank lines, but this should not be a problem.

compiler/llds_out_global.m:

compiler/llds_out_util.m:
compiler/opt_debug.m:

Change the code writing out the LLDS to explicitly pass a stream
to every predicate that does output. (The changes to these modules
belong in this diff because layout_out.m and rtti_out.m call
many of the output predicates in the parse tree package,
and through them, the rest of the LLDS backend is affected as well.)
compiler/make.module_dep_file.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_main.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
Replace code that sets and resets the current output stream
with code that simply passes an explicit output stream to a

Avoid -O<n> resetting previously set options.
This implements Mantis feature request #495. NEWS: Announce the change. compiler/optimization_options.m: A new module for managing optimization options. It defines a separate bespoke type for every boolean optimization option to make it harder to confuse them. It defines a tuple type (opt_tuple) for accessing optimization options quickly. It implements the turning on (but NOT turning off) of optimizations when a given optimization level is selected. tools/make_optimization_options_middle: tools/make_optimization_options_db: The script that generates the meat of optimization_options.m, and the database of option names, kinds and initial values that it uses as its input. The script also generates some code for the special_handler predicate in compiler/options.m. tools/make_optimization_options_start: tools/make_optimization_options_end: The handwritten initial and final parts of optimization_options.m. tools/make_optimization_options: The script that pulls these parts together to form optimization_options.m. compiler/options.m: Make every optimization option a special option, to be handled by the special_handler predicate. That handling consists of simply adding a representation of the option to the end of a cord of optimization options, to be processed later by optimization_options.m. That processing will record the values of these options in the opt_tuple, which is where every other part of the compiler should get them from. Change the interface of special_handler to make the above possible. Add an "optopt_" (optimization option) prefix to the name of every optimization option, to make them inaccessible to the rest of the compiler under their old name, and thus help enforce the switch to using the opt_tuple. Any access to these options to look up their values would fail anyway, since the option data would no longer be e.g. bool(yes), but bool_special, but the name change makes this failure happen at compile time, not runtime. Reclassify a few options to make the above make sense. Some options (unneeded_code_debug, unneeded_code_debug_pred_name, and common_struct_preds) were classified as oc_opt even though they control only the *debugging* of optimizations, while some options (c_optimize and inline_alloc) were not classified as oc_opt even though we do set them automatically at some optimization levels. Delete the opt_level_number option, since it was not used anywhere. Delete the code for handling -ON and --opt-space, since that is now done in optimization_options.m. Add some XXXs. compiler/handle_options.m: Switch to using getopt_io.process_options_userdata_se, as required by the new interface of the special_handler in options.m. In the absence of errors, invoke optimization_options.m to initialize the opt_tuple. Then update the opt_tuple incrementally when processing option implications that affect optimization options. compiler/globals.m: Put the opt_tuple into a new field of the globals structure. compiler/accumulator.m: compiler/add_pragma_type_spec.m: compiler/add_trail_ops.m: compiler/code_info.m: compiler/code_loc_dep.m: compiler/compile_target_code.m: compiler/const_struct.m: compiler/deforest.m: compiler/dep_par_conj.m: compiler/disj_gen.m: compiler/erl_code_gen.m: compiler/format_call.m: compiler/global_data.m: compiler/grab_modules.m: compiler/higher_order.m: compiler/hlds_pred.m: compiler/inlining.m: compiler/intermod.m: compiler/ite_gen.m: compiler/jumpopt.m: compiler/libs.m: compiler/llds_out_code_addr.m: compiler/llds_out_data.m: compiler/llds_out_file.m: compiler/llds_out_instr.m: compiler/llds_out_util.m: compiler/matching.m: compiler/mercury_compile_front_end.m: compiler/mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m: compiler/mercury_compile_main.m: compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m: compiler/mercury_compile_mlds_back_end.m: compiler/ml_disj_gen.m: compiler/ml_gen_info.m: compiler/ml_lookup_switch.m: compiler/ml_optimize.m: compiler/ml_proc_gen.m: compiler/ml_simplify_switch.m: compiler/ml_switch_gen.m: compiler/ml_unify_gen_construct.m: compiler/optimize.m: compiler/pd_util.m: compiler/peephole.m: compiler/polymorphism.m: compiler/proc_gen.m: compiler/simplify_goal_call.m: compiler/simplify_goal_scope.m: compiler/simplify_info.m: compiler/simplify_proc.m: compiler/simplify_tasks.m: compiler/stack_layout.m: compiler/stack_opt.m: compiler/switch_gen.m: compiler/switch_util.m: compiler/tag_switch.m: compiler/tupling.m: compiler/unify_gen_construct.m: compiler/unneeded_code.m: compiler/unused_args.m: Conform to the changes above, mostly by looking up optimization options in the opt_tuple. In some places, replace bools containing optimization options with the bespoke type of that specific optimization option. library/getopt_template: Fix a bug that screwed up an error message. The bug happened when processing a --file option. If one of the options in the file was a special option whose special handler failed, the code handling that failing option returned both an error indication, and the rest of the argument list read in from the file. The code handling the --file option then *ignored* the error indication from the failed special option, and returned an error message of its own complaining about the unconsumed remaining arguments in the file, believing them to be non-option arguments, even though these arguments were never looked it to see if they were options. The fix is for the code handling --flag options to check whether the code processing the file contents found any errors, and if so, return that error *without* looking at the list of remaining arguments. In an unrelated change, factor out a duplicate call. |

Flush resume vars to stack before entering a disjunct.
compiler/disj_gen.m:
When generating code for a non-final disjunct, if the resume point
across that disjunct may require the resume variables to be

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
operations on the new types. (These are currently empty and not documented.)
This change does not introduce the two 64-bit types, 'int64' and 'uint64'.
Their implementation is more complicated and is best left to a separate change.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:

types by the new int_type/0 type.

Carve four modules out of prog_data.m.
The prog_data.m module is imported by most modules of the compiler; by
359 modules out of 488, to be exact. Yet it has many parts that most of
those 359 modules don't need. This diff puts those parts into four new
modules. The number of imports of these modules:
348 modules import prog_data.m
84 modules import prog_data_foreign.m
62 modules import prog_data_pragma.m
12 modules import prog_data_event.m
5 modules import prog_data_used_modules.m

respectively with the specification of events and event sets,
interfacing to foreign languages, pragmas, and the sets of used
(i.e. not unused) modules.

Don't import anything in packages.
Packages are modules whose only job is to serve as a container for submodules. Modules like top_level.m, hlds.m, parse_tree.m and ll_backend.m are packages in this (informal) sense. Besides the include_module declarations for their submodules, most of the packages in the compiler used to import some modules, mostly other packages whose component modules their submodules may need. For example, ll_backend.m used to import parse_tree.m. This meant that modules in the ll_backend package did not have to import parse_tree.m before importing modules in the parse_tree package. However, this had a price. When we add a new module to the parse_tree package, parse_tree.int would change, and this would require the recompilation of ALL the modules in the ll_backend package, even the ones that did NOT import ANY of the modules in the parse_tree package. This happened even at one remove. Pretty much all modules in every one of the backend have to import one or more modules in the hlds package, and they therefore have import hlds.m. Since hlds.m imported transform_hlds.m, any addition of a new middle pass to the transform_hlds package required the recompilation of all backend modules, even in the usual case of the two having nothing to do with each other. This diff removes all import_module declarations from the packages, and replaces them with import_module declarations in the modules that need them. This includes only a SUBSET of their child modules and of the non-child modules that import them. |

Separate out the location-dependent parts of the code_info.
The code_info type was originally designed to be a single data structure
that holds all of the state of the LLDS code generator. It HAD to be a single
data structure then, because the DCGs we used to pass state around only
supported passing around ONE piece of state. Nevertheless, it contained
three separate kinds of information:
1 static information, which never changed during the lifetime of a code_info
structure (such as the pred and proc id of the procedure being compiled),
2 persistent information, whose updates were never undone (such as the maximum
number of temporaries that were ever needed at any one time), and
3 location dependent information, such as "which variables are stored where",
whose updates *can* be undone when the code generator jumps back to
a previously visited point in the code, e.g. to start generating code
for the next disjunct in a disjunction.
Originally, these three kinds of fields were all jumbled up together, but
about ten years ago, I grouped all the fields of the same kind together,
into substructures of code_info named code_info_static, code_info_persistent
and code_info_loc_dep respectively. This improved matters, but some problems
remained, the most important of which is that the code_info always contained
the location dependent information, even when it wasn't meaningful, and there
was no way of indicating this fact. (After initialization, the other two parts
are always meaningful.)
This diff separates out the location dependent part of the code_info
into a new type, code_loc_dep, that can be passed around independently
of the code_info, which now contains only the first two kinds of information
above. In places where the location-dependent information is not meaningful,
you don't need to have a current code_loc_dep.
This separation also makes it easier to see what updates to the code generator
state change only the persistent part (the updated code_info type), only
the location-dependent part (the new code_loc_dep type), or both.
In the process of making this change, I found several places where the
location-dependent part of the code_info (now the code_loc_dep) was being
updated, only for those updates to be thrown away, unread, a short time later.
This happened at the ends of branches in e.g. switches, with the updated
code_loc_deps being thrown away when code generation started working on
the next branch.
compiler/code_loc_dep.m:
New module containing the location-dependent part of the LLDS code
generator state. Its contents are derived from those parts of the
old contents of code_info.m that deal with location-dependent state.
Many of the predicates moved here work on only on the code_loc_dep
structure, some others work on both the code_info and code_loc_dep
structure, and a few work only on the code_info. Predicates in the last
category are in code_loc_dep.m only if they are either (a) used only
in this module, or (b) used only with other predicates in this module.

Give some fields and predicates more descriptive names.

Often this required passing an in/out pair of code_loc_deps as well as
an in/out pair of code_infos, but in many cases, one or more of these
would not be needed.
Don't make changes to the code_loc_dep at the end of an arm of a branched
control structure if those updates are about be thrown away when we
start generating code for the next arm.
In several cases, switch to a strategy of taking a snapshot of the
code_loc_dep before entering a branched control structure as a whole,
and restoring that state at the start of each arm. We used to take
a snapshot at the start of each branch, and restore it at its end,
to be ready for the next branch. The former is easier to make
correctness arguments about, since the code_loc_dep in an arm
often has limited scope.
Make some minor unrelated improvements, such as eliminating the
unnecessary use of solutions/2, and reordering tests for slightly
better performance.

Predicates with many variables, such as some of those in zm_enums.m,
Estimated hours taken: 24 Branches: main Predicates with many variables, such as some of those in zm_enums.m, tickle pretty bad behavior in the liveness and stack_alloc passes. This is because those passes manipulate sets of variables, which in such cases are large sets of variables, and the quadratic behavior of repeated operations on sets represents as sorted lists hurts us. This diff changes the representation of the sets of variables involved in those two passes, which are the prebirth, postbirth, predeath and postdeath sets in goal_infos, to be values of an abstract type (set_of_progvar). By default, these are implemented using tree_bitsets, which have much better worst case behaviour that set_ordlists. When compiling zm_enums with debugging enabled, this diff speeds up the liveness pass by about half and the stack alloc pass by about a third, with the overall speedup being about 6% (due to some other expensive passes). On tools/speedtest -l, the result is a 3.4% slowdown. Since the slowdown worsens slightly if I make the abstract representation of sets of prog_vars be the existing representation (an ordinary set), I think this slowdown is due to the conversions that are now required in some places between the abstract representation and an explicit set(prog_var) representation. As such, as other uses of set(progvar) get converted to set_of_progvar, this slowdown should disappear. compiler/set_of_var.m: The new module that contains the set_of_progvar abstract data type. This module also contains a copy of the code of the graph_colour module. Since the set_of_progvar type is private, this is necessary if we want all the set operations done by graph colouring (which does the bulk of the work of the stack alloc pass) to use the preferred set representation. compiler/graph_colour.m: Note that this module is no longer used. compiler/stack_alloc.m: compiler/liveness.m: Switch over to using the new module. compiler/parse_tree.m: Include set_of_var among the modules of this package. (It is in this package because the prog_var type is defined in this package.) compiler/test_bitset.m: A module that allows new set implementations to be tested. It is an extended and specialized version of the bitset_tester module from tests/hard_coded. compiler/hlds_llds.m: Use the set_of_progvar type for the prebirth, postbirth, predeath and postdeath sets in goal_infos, and for other liveness-related sets of variables. compiler/code_info.m: Some of the fields of the code_info structure represent sets of variables, and some of the predicates defined by this module have arguments that are sets of variables. If these sets represent entities that are computed from prebirth, postbirth, predeath and postdeath sets or from other goal_info fields that have been changed to the set_of_progvar representation, change them to use the set_of_progvar representation as well, or, in a few cases, to plain sorted lists. Conform to the above change. compiler/proc_type.m: Add a utility predicate to operate of set_of_progvar. Replace a lambda expression with a named predicate. compiler/quantification.m: Until now, quantification.m used its own private abstract type (defined as tree_bitset) to represent sets.

This eliminates a potential maintenance problem. compiler/call_gen.m: compiler/code_gen.m: compiler/commit_gen.m: compiler/delay_construct.m: compiler/disj_gen.m: compiler/hlds_out_goal.m: compiler/hlds_rtti.m: compiler/interval.m: compiler/ite_gen.m: compiler/live_vars.m: compiler/lookup_switch.m: compiler/lookup_util.m: compiler/matching.m: compiler/pd_util.m: compiler/polymorphism.m: compiler/pragma_c_gen.m: compiler/proc_gen.m: compiler/simplify.m: compiler/stack_opt.m: compiler/store_alloc.m: compiler/string_switch.m: compiler/structure_reuse.lbu.m: compiler/structure_reuse.lfu.m: compiler/structure_sharing.domain.m: compiler/switch_util.m: compiler/trace_gen.m: compiler/tupling.m: compiler/unify_gen.m: compiler/unused_args.m: Conform to the above change. library/map.m: Add a utility predicate, map.select_sorted_list, which functions the same way as map.select, but takes a sorted list as argument instead of a set. library/set_ordlist.m: Bring the interface of this module closer to set.m and tree_bitset.m to make them more easily interchangeable. This required adding the predicates is_non_empty and is_singleton, as well as adding predicate forms of union_list and intersect_list. I also added missing type_spec pragmas for some predicates frequently used by the compiler. library/tree_bitset.m: Bring the interface of this module closer to set.m and set_ordlist.m to make them more easily interchangeable. This required adding the predicates is_non_empty and is_singleton, and both function and predicate forms of union_list and intersect_list. Fix an old bug in the difference operation. Given SetA - SetB, if SetA was the empty set, then this operation would correctly return the empty set if SetB was small (represented by a leaf list), but would incorrectly return SetB if it was large (represented by an interior node list). |

Try to work around the Snow Leopard linker's performance problem with
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main
Try to work around the Snow Leopard linker's performance problem with
debug grade object files by greatly reducing the number of symbols needed
to represent the debugger's data structures.
Specifically, this diff groups all label layouts in a module, each of which
previously had its own named global variable, into only a few (one to four)
global variables, each of which is an array. References to the old global
variables are replaced by references to slots in these arrays.
This same treatment could also be applied to other layout structures. However,
most layouts are label layouts, so doing just label layouts gets most of the
available benefit.
When the library and compiler are compiled in grade asm_fast.gc.debug,
this diff leads to about a 1.5% increase in the size of their generated C
source files (from 338 to 343 Mb), but a more significant reduction (about 17%)
in the size of the corresponding object files (from 155 to 128 Mb). This leads
to an overall reduction in disk requirements from 493 to 471 Mb (about 4.5%).
Since we generate the same code and data as before, with the data just being
arranged differently, the decrease in object file sizes is coming from the
reduction in relocation information, the information processed by the linker.
This should speed up the linker.
compiler/layout.m:
Make the change described above. We now define up to four arrays:
one each for label layouts with and without information about
variables, one for the layout structures of user events,
and one for the variable number lists of user events.
compiler/layout_out.m:
Generate the new arrays that the module being compiled needs.
Use purpose-specific types instead of booleans.
compiler/trace_gen.m:
Use a new field in foreign_proc_code instructions to record the
identity of any labels whose layout structures we want to refer to,
even though layout structures have not been generated yet. The labels
will be looked up in a map (generated together with the layout
structures) by llds_out.m.
compiler/llds.m:
Add this extra field to foreign_proc_code instructions.
Add the map (which is actually in two parts) to the c_file type,
which is the data structure representing the entire LLDS.
Also add to the c_file type some other data structures that previously
we used to hand around alongside it. Some of these data structures
used to conmingle layout structures that we now separate.
compiler/stack_layout.m:
Generate array slots instead of separate structures for label layouts.
Return the different arrays separately.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Order the output of layout structures to require fewer forward
declarations. The forward declarations of the few arrays holding the
label layout structures replace a lot of the declarations previously
needed.
Include the information needed by layout_out.m in the llds_out_info,
and conform to the changes above.
As a side-effect of all these changes, we now generate proc layout
structures in the same order as the procedures' appearence in the HLDS,
which is the same as their order in the source code, modulo any
procedures added by the compiler itself (for lambdas, unification
predicates, etc).

We need new macros because the old ones assumed that the
C preprocessor can construct the address of a label's layout structure
from the name of the label, which is obviously no longer possible.
Make even existing families of macros handle in bulk up to 10 labels,
up from the previous 8.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Add macros for use by the new code in layout.m.
tests/debugger/*.{inp,exp}:

e.g. to put a breakpoint on.

Delete the old tree.m module (which did a small subset of what cords now do),
Estimated hours taken: 6 Branches: main Delete the old tree.m module (which did a small subset of what cords now do), and switch to using cords instead. This is more standard, as well as very slightly more efficient, because with cords, e.g. concatenating ten code fragments of which eight are empty doesn't allocate ten cons cells. My measurements show a 0.1% reduction in executable size and a 0.3% reduction in compilation time. Both of those are in the noise; the main reason for the change is more convenient coding. compiler/tree.m: Remove this module. compiler/libs.m: Remove the inclusion of tree.m. compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Remove the description of tree.m. compiler/bytecode.m: Switch to using cords to represent code in the bytecode backend. compiler/llds.m: Switch to using cords to represent code in the LLDS backend. compiler/mlds_to_il.m: Switch to using cords to represent IL code being built. compiler/bytecode_gen.m: compiler/call_gen.m: compiler/code_gen.m: compiler/code_info.m: compiler/commit_gen.m: compiler/dense_switch.m: compiler/disj_gen.m: compiler/ite_gen.m: compiler/lookup_switch.m: compiler/lookup_util.m: compiler/middle_rec.m: compiler/par_conj_gen.m: compiler/pragma_c_gen.m: compiler/proc_gen.m: compiler/string_switch.m: compiler/switch_case.m: compiler/switch_gen.m: compiler/tag_switch.m: compiler/trace_gen.m: compiler/unify_gen.m: compiler/var_locn.m: Conform to the changes above. library/cord.m: Add a predicate form of map. |

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.

These passes have nothing to do in from_ground_term_construct scopes,

In some modules (e.g. dead_proc_elim), some traversals had to be kept.
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.

1) Implement the saving of protected regions at disj frames ONLY for semidet
Estimated hours taken: 8 Branch: main 1) Implement the saving of protected regions at disj frames ONLY for semidet disjunctions. We need this information so as to be able to commit the regions' removals when a nonlast disjunct of a semidet disjunction succeeds. Now the fixed part of a disj frame will have 4 slots instead of 3. The extra slot is to store the number of protected regions. It will be zero for nondet disjunctions. For semidet disjunctions we can use the information in their rbmm_goal_info for protected regions and allocated-into regions. Also implement the profiling and debugging messages for the saving. 2) Fix a bug relates to the saving of region size records at ite frame. 3) Do not protect regions that are explicitly removed at the end of the condition of an if-then-else. It is because when the program reaches that point, we know for sure that the condition will succeed. 4) Improving the profiling of RBMM compiler/disj_gen.m: Implement 1).

Implement the runtime system for region-based memory management.
Estimated hours taken: 50 by quan, 8 by zs Branches: main Implement the runtime system for region-based memory management. This includes the implementation of regions, region instructions and support for backtracking. Support for backtracking deals with preventing the destruction of backward live regions and provides instant reclaiming of space in regions when backtracking reaches a resume point. This support now exploits the data in rbmm_goal_info structures. The mechanisms are documented in the papers/rbmm module of the Mercury repository. compiler/code_info.m: Change the option to control the addition of region operations from use_region to region_analysis so that no region operations are introduced when compiling a compiler in .rbmm grade. This is temporary, as is the re-adding of --region-analysis option. Make use of rbmm_goal_info when generating backtrack-supporting code for commit operations. compiler/commit_gen.m: Make use of rbmm_goal_info when generating backtrack-supporting code. compiler/disj_gen.m: Make use of rbmm_goal_info when generating semidet disjunction.

Add a first draft of the code generator support for region based memory
Estimated hours taken: 30 Branches: main Add a first draft of the code generator support for region based memory management. It is known to be incomplete; the missing parts are marked by XXXs. It may also be buggy; it will be tested after Quan adds the runtime support, i.e. the C macros invoked by the new LLDS instructions. However, the changes in this diff shouldn't affect non-RBMM operations. compiler/llds.m: Add five new LLDS instructions. Four are specific to RBMM operations. RBMM embeds three new stacks in compiler-reserved temp slots in procedure's usual Mercury stack frames, and the new LLDS instructions respectively (i) push those stack frames onto their respective stacks, (ii) fill some variable parts of those stack frames, (iii) fill fixed slots of those stack frames, and (iv) use the contents of and/or pop those stack frames. (The pushing and popping affect only the new embedded stacks, not the usual Mercury stacks.) The last instruction is a new variant of the old assign instruction. It has identical semantics, but restricts optimization. An assign (a) can be deleted if its target lval is not used, and (b) its target lval can be changed (e.g. to a temp register) as long as all the later instructions referring to that lval are changed to use the new lval instead. Neither is permitted for the new keep_assign instruction. This is required because in an earlier draft we used it to assign to stack variables (parts of the embedded stack frames) that aren't explicitly referred to in later LLDS code, but are nevertheless implicitly referred to by some instructions (specifically iv above). We now use a specialized instruction (iii above) for this (since the macro it invokes can refer to C structure names, this makes it easier to keep the compiler in sync with the runtime system), but given that keep_assign is already implemented, may be useful later and shouldn't cause appreciable slowdown of the compiler, this diff keeps it. Extend the type that describe the contents of lvals to allow it to describe the new kinds of things we can now store in them. Add types to manage and describe the new embedded stack frames, and some utility functions. Change some existing utility functions to make all this more conceptually consistent. compiler/ite_gen.m: Surround the code we generate for the condition of if-then-elses with the code required to ensure that regions that are logically removed in the condition aren't physically destroyed until we know that the condition succeeds (since the region may still be needed in the else branch), and to make sure that if the condition fails, all the memory allocated since the entry into the condition is reclaimed instantly. compiler/disj_gen.m: Surround the code we generate for disjunctions with the code required to ensure that regions that are logically removed in a disjunct aren't physically destroyed if a later disjunct needs them, and to make sure that at entry into a non-first disjunct, all the memory allocated since the entry into the disjunction is reclaimed instantly. compiler/commit_gen.m: compiler/code_info.m: The protection against destruction offered by a disjunction disappears when a commit cuts away all later alternatives in that disjunct, so we must undo that protection. We therefore surround the scope of a commit goal with goal that achieves that objective. Add some new utility predicates to code_info. Remove some old utility functions that are now in llds.m. compiler/continuation_info.m: Extend the type that describe the contents of stack slots to allow it to describe the new kinds of things we can now store in them. Rename the function symbols of that type to eliminate some ambiguities. compiler/code_gen.m: Remember the set of variables live at the start of the goal (before the pre_goal_update updates it), since the region operations need to know this. Leave the lookup of AddTrailOps (and now AddRegionOps) to the specific kinds of goals that need it (the most frequent goals, unify and call, do not). Make both AddTrailOps and AddRegionOps use a self-explanatory type instead of a boolean. compiler/lookup_switch.m: Conform to the change to AddTrailOps. Fix some misleading variable names. compiler/options.m: Add some options to control the number of stack slots needed for various purposes. These have to correspond to the sizes of some C structures in the runtime system. Eventually these will be constants, but it is handy to keep them easily changeable while the C data structures are still being worked on. Add an option for optimizing away region ops whereever possible. The intention is that these should be on all the time, but we will want to turn them off for benchmarking. compiler/dupelim.m: compiler/dupproc.m: compiler/exprn_aux.m: compiler/frameopt.m: compiler/global_data.m: compiler/jumpopt.m: compiler/livemap.m: compiler/llds_out.m: compiler/llds_to_x86_64.m: compiler/middle_rec.m: compiler/opt_debug.m: compiler/opt_util.m: compiler/par_conj_gen.m: compiler/reassign.m: compiler/stack_layout.m: compiler/stdlabel.m: compiler/trace_gen.m: compiler/use_local_vars.m: Conform to the changes above, which mostly means handling the new LLDS instructions. In some cases, factor out existing common code, turn if-then-elses into switches, group common cases in switches, rationalize argument orders or variable names, and/or put code in execution order. In reassign.m, fix some old oversights that could (in some unlikely cases) cause bugs in the generated code. compiler/pragma_c_gen.m: Exploit the capabilities of code_info.m. compiler/prog_type.m: Add a utility predicate. |

Branches: main
compiler/use_local_vars.m:
Extend this optimization to handle temporaries being both defined in
and used by foreign_proc_code instructions. This should eliminate
unnecessary accesses to the MR_fake_reg array, and thus speed up
programs that use foreign code a lot, including typeclass- and
tabling-intensive programs, since those features are implemented using
inline foreign code. I/O intensive should also benefit, but not much,

This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair
Estimated hours taken: 10 Branches: main This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair to being discriminated union types with their own function symbol. This was motivated by an error message (one of many, but the one that broke the camel's back) about "-" being used in an ambiguous manner. It will reduce the number of such messages in the future, and will make compiler data structures easier to inspect in the debugger. The most important type changed by far is hlds_goal, whose function symbol is now "hlds_goal". Second and third in importance are llds.instruction (function symbol "llds_instr") and prog_item.m's item_and_context (function symbol "item_and_context"). There are some others as well. In several places, I rearranged predicates to factor the deconstruction of goals into hlds_goal_expr and hlds_goal_into out of each clause into a single point. In many places, I changed variable names that used "Goal" to refer to just hlds_goal_exprs to use "GoalExpr" instead. I also changed variable names that used "Item" to refer to item_and_contexts to use "ItemAndContext" instead. This should make reading such code less confusing. I renamed some function symbols and predicates to avoid ambiguities. I only made one algorithmic change (at least intentionally). In assertion.m, comparing two goals for equality now ignores goal_infos for all kinds of goals, whereas previously it ignored them for most kinds of goals, but for shorthand goals it was insisting on them being equal. This seemed to me to be a bug. Pete, can you confirm this? |

Add fields to structures representing the C code itself that says whether
Estimated hours taken: 4 Branches: main Add fields to structures representing the C code itself that says whether or not the C code affects the liveness of lvals. This is intended as the basis for future improvements in the optimization of such code. Implement a new foreign_proc attribute that allows programmers to set the value of this field. Eliminate names referring to `pragma c_code' in the LLDS backend in favor of names referring to foreign_procs. compiler/llds.m: Make the changes described above. Consistently put the field containing C code last in the function symbols that contain them. compiler/prog_data.m: Make the changes described above. Rename some other function symbols to avoid ambiguity. compiler/prog_io_pragma.m: Parse the new foreign_proc attribute. doc/reference_manual.texi: Document the new attribute. compiler/pragma_c_gen.m: Rename the main predicates. compiler/opt_util.m: Change some predicates into functions, for more convenient invocation. compiler/livemap.m: Rename the predicates in this module to avoid ambiguity and the need for module qualification. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changes above. |

Fix a bug with trail usage optimization that was causing it to break the G12
Estimated hours taken: 10
Branches: main, release
Fix a bug with trail usage optimization that was causing it to break the G12
fd tests. The problem was that the optimization we were applying to model_non
disjunctions was incorrect - instead of considering trail updates along all
forward execution paths from the creation of a choicepoint to the commit, it
was only considering updates along parts of those paths.
The fix (for now) is to remove that particular part of the optimization.
(It will be possible to reinstate part of the optimization but doing so
requires creating trail specialized versions of procedures -
something that we don't currently have support for.)
compiler/trailing_analysis.m:
Treat any goal that creates a choicepoint as potentially modifying
the trail.
compiler/add_trail_ops.m:
Modify the MLDS code generator to conform to the above.
compiler/code_model.m:

conditions still works.

This diff contains no algorithmic changes.
Estimated hours taken: 8 Branches: main This diff contains no algorithmic changes. It merely renames apart a bunch of function symbols to reduce ambiguity. Basically I went through prog_data.m, prog_item.m, hlds_data.m, hlds_goal.m and hlds_pred.m looking for type definitions containing function symbol names that were either language "keywords" (e.g. "terminates", which is an annotation on foreign_procs), used with slightly different meanings in several types (e.g. "sym"), or both (e.g. "call"). When I found such type definitions, I changed the names of the function symbols, usually by adding a prefix or suffix indicating the type to all function symbols of the type. For example, the old function symbol "foreign_proc" in type "pragma_type" is now named "pragma_foreign_proc", and the names of all other function symbols in that type also start with "pragma_". All of this should yield simpler compiler error messages when we make mistakes, and will make it more likely that looking up a function symbol using a tags file will take you to the actual definition of the relevant instance of that function symbol. However, the most important benefit is the increase in the readability of unfamiliar code; the reader won't have to emulate the compiler's type ambiguity resolution algorithm (which in many cases used to require distinguishing between f/14 and f/15 by counting the arguments, e.g. for "pred_or_func"). compiler/prog_data.m: compiler/prog_item.m: compiler/hlds_data.m: compiler/hlds_goal.m: compiler/hlds_pred.m: Rename function symbols as explained above. compiler/*.m: Conform to the function symbol renames. In some cases, rename other function symbols as well. Minor style fixes, e.g. replace if-then-elses with switches, or simple det predicates with functions. |

Implement the trace goal construct we discussed, for now for the LLDS backends
Estimated hours taken: 70
Branches: main
Implement the trace goal construct we discussed, for now for the LLDS backends
only.
Since the syntax of trace goals is non-trivial, useful feedback on syntax
errors inside trace goal attributes is essential. With the previous setup, this
wasn't possible, since the code that turned terms into parse tree goals turned
*all* terms into goals; it couldn't recognize any errors, sweeping them under
the rug as calls. This diff changes that. Now, if this code recognizes a
keyword that indicates a particular construct, it insists on the rest of the
code following the syntax required for that construct, and returns error
messages if it doesn't.
We handle the trace goal attributes that specify state variables to be threaded
through the trace goal (either the I/O state or a mutable variable) in
add_clause.m, at the point at which we transform the list of items to the HLDS.
We handle the compile-time condition on trace goals in the invocation of
simplify at the end of semantics analysis, by eliminating the goal if the
compile-time condition isn't met. We handle run-time conditions on trace goals
partially in the same invocation of simplify: we transform trace goals with
runtime conditions into an if-then-else with the trace goal as the then part
and `true' as the else part, the condition being a foreign_proc that is handled
specially by the code generator, that special handling being to replace
the actual code of the foreign_proc (which is a dummy) with the evaluation of
the runtime condition.
Since these changes require significant changes to some of our key data
structures, I took the liberty of doing some renaming of function symbols
at the same time to avoid using ambiguities with respect to language keywords.
library/ops.m:
Add "trace" as an operator.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Define data types to represent the various attributes of trace goals.
Rename some function symbols to avoid ambiguities.
compiler/prog_item.m:
Extend the parse tree representation of goals with a trace goal.
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Output the new kind of goal and its components.
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
Extend the HLDS representation of scopes with a scope_reason
representing trace goals.
Add a mechanism (an extra argument in foreign_procs) to allow
the representation of goals that evaluate runtime trace conditions.
Since this requires modifying all code that traverses the HLDS,
do some renames that were long overdue: rename not as negation,
rename call as plain_call, and rename foreign_proc as
call_foreign_proc. These renames all avoid using language keywords
as function symbols.
Change the way we record goals' purities. Instead of optional features
to indicate impure or semipure, which is error-prone, use a plain
field in the goal_info, accessed in the usual way.
Add a way to represent that a goal contains a trace goal, and should
therefore be treated as if it were impure when considering whether to
optimize it away.
Reformat some comments describing function symbols.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
Output the new construct in the HLDS.
compiler/prog_io_util.m:
Generalize the maybe[123] types to allow the representation of more
than one error message. Add functions to extract the error messages.
Add a maybe4 type. Rename the function symbols of these types to
avoid massive ambiguity.
Change the order of some predicates to bring related predicates
next to each other.
compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_dcg.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Rework these modules almost completely to find and accumulate syntax
errors as terms are being parsed. In some cases, this allowed us to
replace "XXX this is a hack" markers with meaningful error-reporting
code.
In prog_io_goal.m, add code for parsing trace goals.
In a bunch of places, update obsolete coding practices, such as using
nested chains of closures instead of simple sequential code, and
using A0 and A to refer to values of different types (terms and goals
respectively). Use more meaningful variable names.
Break up some too-large predicates.
compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
Find and accumulate syntax errors as terms are being parsed.
compiler/add_clause.m:
Add code to transform trace goals from the parse tree to the HLDS.
This is where the IO state and mutable variable attributes of trace
goals are handled.
Eliminate the practice of using the naming scheme Body0 and Body
to refer to values of different types (prog_item.goal and hlds_goal
respectively).
Use error_util for some error messages.
library/private_builtin.m:
Add the predicates referred to by the transformation in add_clause.m.
compiler/goal_util.m:
Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity.
compiler/typecheck.m:
Do not print error messages about missing clauses if some errors have
been detected previously.
compiler/purity.m:
Instead of just computing purity, compute (and record) also whether
a goal contains a trace goal. However, treat trace goals as pure.
compiler/mode_info.m:
Add trace goals as a reason for locking variables.
Rename some function symbols to avoid ambiguity.
compiler/modes.m:
When analyzing trace goal scopes, lock the scope's nonlocal variables
to prevent them from being further instantiated.
compiler/det_analysis.m:
Insist on the code in trace goal scopes being det or cc_multi.
compiler/det_report.m:
Generate the error message if the code in a trace goal scope isn't det
or cc_multi.
compiler/simplify.m:
At the end of the front end, eliminate trace goal scopes if their
compile-time condition is false. Transform trace goals with runtime
conditions as described at the top.
Treat goals that contain trace goals as if they were impure when
considering whether to optimize them away.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Tell simplify when it is being invoked at the end of the front end.
Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity.
compiler/trace_params.m:
Provide the predicates simplify.m need to be able to evaluate the trace
goal conditions regarding trace levels.
compiler/trace.m:
compiler/trace_gen.m:
Rename the trace module as trace_gen, since "trace" is now an operator.
Rename some predicates exported by the module, now that it is no longer
possible to preface calls with "trace." as a module qualifier.
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
Document this name change.
compiler/options.m:
Rename the trace option as trace_level internally, since "trace"
is now an operator. The user-visible name remains the same.
Add the new --trace-flag option.
Delete an obsolete option.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Rename the function symbols of the grade_component type,
since "trace" is now an operator.
compiler/llds.m:
Extend the LLDS with a mechanism to refer to C global variables.
For now, these are used to refer to C globals that will be created
by mkinit to represent the initial values of the environment variables
referred to by trace goals.
compiler/commit_gen.m:
Check that no trace goal with a runtime condition survives to code
generation; they should have been transformed by simplify.m.
compiler/code_gen.m:
Tell commit_gen.m what kind of scope it is generating code for.
compiler/pragma_c_gen.m:
Generate code for runtime conditions when handling the foreign_procs
created by simplify.m.
compiler/code_info.m:
Allow pragma_c_gen.m to record what environment variables it has
generated references to.
compiler/proc_gen.m:
Record the set of environment variables a procedure refers to
in the LLDS procedure header, for efficient access by llds_out.m.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Handle the new LLDS construct, and tell mkinit which environment
variables need C globals created for them.
compiler/pd_util.m:
Rename some predicates to avoid ambiguity.
compiler/*.m:
Conform to the changes above, mainly the renames of function symbols
and predicates, the changed signatures of some predicates, and the new
handling of purity.
util/mkinit.c:
Generate the definitions and the initializations of any C globals
representing the initial status (set or not set) of environment
variables needed by trace goals.
library/assoc_list.m:
Add some predicates that are useful in prog_io*.m.
library/term_io.m:
Minor cleanup.
