Move pred_name.m to the HLDS package.
This is so that it can become the home of the type currently named
pred_origin in hlds_pred.m, which (after being given new name) will become
a structured representation of predicate names.
The only thing that kept pred_name.m in the parse_tree package was the fact
that parse_pragma.m, which has no access to the hlds package, called it
to create the name of a type-specialized predicate when parsing
type_spec pragmas. The main part of this diff, apart from the trivial
updates to import hlds.pred_name instead parse_tree.pred_name, deals
with this issue.
The problem is how to ensure that the compiler invocations that create
type-specialized predicates (invocations that compile the module containing
the type_spec pragma that calls for this) and the invocations that create
the calls to those predicates (invocations that mostly compile other modules)
agree on the name of the name of the type-specialized predicate.
The old approach was this.
When reading in (say) mod1.m which contains a type_spec pragma,
we construct the name of the type-specialized predicate from
- the name of the module (mod1),
- the name of the predicate to be specialized, and
- the type substitution in the pragma.
We then record this name in the pragma.
If the compiler invocation generates code, we use this name in the
predicate definition. If the compiler invocation creates a .int file,
we record the name in the third argument of the type_spec pragma.
This third argument is NOT allowed to exist in .m files.
Other compiler invocations that read in mod1.int when compiling
another module, e.g. mod2.m, use the specialized name in the third argument
of the type_spec pragma as the name to use in calls.
In this approach, the single-source-of-truth about the name of the
type-specialized predicate is the name constructed when parsing mod1.m,
which is conveyed to compiler invocations on other modules through
the third argument of the type_spec pragma.
The new approach is this:
When reading in (say) mod1.m which contains a type_spec pragma,
we give guaranteed-to-be-unique names to all the anonymous variables
in the type_spec pragma. We also record in the type_spec pragma
the name of the module whose (source or interface) file we read
the pragma from. The name of the predicate to be specialized
was of course already in the pragma.
If the compiler invocation generates code, we construct the name
of the type-specialized version of the predicate when we add the
all-tvars-are-named type_spec pragma to the HLDS. If the compiler
invocation creates a .int file, we write out the all-tvars-are-named
version of the type_spec pragma. The pragma also contains the predicate
name to be specialized. It does not contain the name of the module,
but we will write out type_spec pragmas from module_x.m *only* to
module_x.int, never to any other .int file, so any readers of
the type_spec pragma from mod1.int will also know the name of the
module that the pragma came from.
Other compiler invocations that read in mod1.int when compiling
another module, e.g. mod2.m, therefore get exactly the same
- module name,
- the name of the predicate to be specialized, and
- the type substitution in the pragma
as the compiler invocations on mod1.m. The module name are the
predicate name are never changed by being written out and then
read back in, and *due to the explicit names given to any formerly
anonymous variables*, the type substitution is changed by this either.
This means that the compiler invocations on mod1.m and mod2.m
give the same parameters to the same function, and therefore they are
guaranteed to get the same string as the name of the type-specialized
version of the predicate.
In this approach, the single-source-of-truth about the name of the
type-specialized predicate is the function constructing that name
and its inputs.

Introduce var_table.m.
Most compiler passes need to know both the names and the types
of the variables they operate on. Until now, they had to pass along
two separate data structures for that, the varset and the vartypes,
and many operations required looking a variable up in both of these.
The var table is a single data structure that records for each variable
- its name, as the varset has traditionally done,
- its type, as the vartypes has traditionally done,
- the is_dummy_type flag which says whether its type is a dummy type,
which traditionally had to computed afresh at each lookup.
Switch the MLDS code generator to use var_tables instead of varsets and
vartypes. The code generator often needs to know the name and the type
of a variable at the same time, and it often needs to know which variables'
types are dummies, often enough that precomputing this info should be a win.
compiler/var_table.m:
Add this new module which defines the var_table.
Its operations are modelled after the operation in var_types.m.
compiler/hlds.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
Add the new module to the hlds package.
compiler/prog_type.m:
compiler/type_util.m:
Move the is_dummy_type from type_util.m, which is in the
check_hlds package, to prog_type.m, which in the parse_tree package,
to avoid having this part of the hlds package depend on check_hlds.
(It already depends on parse_tree, for a lot of different things.)
Given a function and a predicate that each took a vartypes arg,
make new versions that take a var_table arg instead.
Rationalize the argument list of the function.
compiler/ml_gen_info.m:
Replace the varset and vartypes fields of the ml_gen_info with a
var_table field.
compiler/ml_code_util.m:
Replace code that used to operate on varsets and vartypes with code
that operates on var_tables.
Create new versions of a few operations to exploit the info in var_tables.
Give some predicates more meaningful names.

into an reasonable order by moving related args next to each other.

Move pred-name-constructing code to pred_name.m.
compiler/pred_name.m:
Support the construction of predicate names for more predicate transforms,
including those done by higher_order.m and table_gen.m. Neither conformed
to the naming scheme of the other predicate transformations. For the
transforms done by higher_order.m, add XXXs noting this. For the transform
done by table_gen.m, make it generate names that do conform to our pattern.
We can do this because we only generate the affected predicates (and their
names) in minimal model own stack grades, which are not operational :-(
Move code to create names for the predicates implementing typeclass
methods here.
Move code to create names for unify, compare and index predicates here.
Include "sym_name" in the names of the predicates that construct sym_names.
Rename one of the existing transform_names to avoid ambiguity.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Change the argument order of pred_info_init, partly to put first things
first, but also to flush out places that construct predicate names.

Pack sub-word-sized ints and dummies in terms.
Previously, the only situation in which we could pack two or more arguments
of a term into a single word was when all those arguments are enums. This diff
changes that, so that the arguments can also be sub-word-sized integers
(signed or unsigned), or values of dummy types (which occupy zero bits).
This diff also records, for each argument of a function symbol, not just
whether, and if yes, how it is packed into a word, but also at *what offset*
that word is in the term's heap cell. It is more economical to compute this
once, when the representation of the type is being decided, than to compute
it over and over again when terms with that function symbol are being
constructed or deconstructed. However, for a transition period, we compute
these offsets at *both* times, to check the consistency of the new algorithm
for computing offsets that is run at "decide representation time" with
the old algorithms run at "generate code for a unification time".
compiler/du_type_layout.m:
Make the changes described above: pack sub-word-sized integers and
dummy values into argument words, if possible, and if the relevant
new option allows it. These options are temporary. If we find no problems
with the new packing algorithm in a few weeks, we should be able to
delete them.
Allow 64 bit ints and uints to be stored in unboxed in two words
on 32 bit platforms, if the relevant new option allows it. Support
for this is not yet complete, but it makes sense to implement the
RTTI changes for both this change and one described in the above
paragraph together.
For each packed argument, record not just its width, its shift and
the mask, but also the number of bits the argument takes. Previously,
we computed this on demand from the mask, but there is no real need
for that when simply storing this info is so cheap.
For all arguments, packed or not, record its offset, relative to both
the start of the arguments, and the start of the memory cell. (The two
are different if the arguments are preceded by either a remote secondary
tag, the typeinfos and/or typeclass_infos describing some existentially
typed arguments, or both.) The reason for this is given at the top.
Centralize the decision of the parameters of packing in one predicate.
If the option --inform-suboptimal-packing is given, print an informational
message whenever the code deciding type representations finds that
reordering the arguments of a function symbol would allow it to pack
the arguments of that function symbol into less space.
compiler/options.m:
Add the option --allow-packing-ints which controls whether
du_type_layout.m will attempt to pack {int,uint}{8,16,32} arguments
alongside enum arguments.
Add the option --allow-packing-dummies which controls whether
du_type_layout.m will optimize away (in other words, represent in 0 bits)
arguments of dummy types.
Add the option --allow-double-word-ints which controls whether
du_type_layout.m will store arguments of the types int64 and uint64
unboxed in two words on 32 bit platforms, the way it currently stores
double precision floats.
All three those options are off by default, which preserves binary
compatibility with existing code. However, the first two are ready
to be switched on (the third is not).
All three options are intended to be present in the compiler
only until these changes are tested. Once we deem them sufficiently
tested, I will modify the compiler to always do the packing they control,
at which point we can delete these options. This is why they are not
documented.
Add the option --inform-suboptimal-packing, whose meaning is described
above.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document --inform-suboptimal-packing.
compiler/prog_data.m:
For each argument of a function symbol in a type definition, use
a new type called arg_pos_width to record the extra information
mentioned above in (offsets for all arguments, and number of bits
for packed arguments).
For each function symbol that has some existential type constraints,
record the extra information mentioned for parse_type_defn.m below.
compiler/hlds_data.m:
Include the position, as well as the width, in the representation
of the arguments of function symbols.
Previously, we used the integer 0 as a tag for dummies. Add a tag to
represent dummy values, since this gives more information to any code
that sees that tag.
compiler/ml_unify_gen.m:
compiler/unify_gen.m:
Handle the packing of dummy values, and of sub-word-sized ints and uints.
Compare the cell offset of each argument computed using existing
algorithms here with the cell offset recorded in the argument's
representation, and abort if they are different.
In some cases, restructure code a bit to make it possible.
For example, for tuples and closures, this means that instead of
simply recording that each tuple argument or closure element
is a full word, we must record its correct offset as well.
Handle the new dummy_tag.
Add prelim (not yet finished) support for double-word int64s/uint64s
on 32 bit platforms.
When packing the values of two or more variables (or constants) into a
single word in a memory cell, optimize away operations that are no-ops,
such as shifting anything by zero bits, shifting the constant zero
by any number of bits, and ORing anything with zero. This makes the
generated code easier to read. It is probably also faster for us
to do it here than to write out a bigger expression, have the C compiler
read in the bigger expression, and then later make the same optimization.
In ml_unify_gen.m, avoid the unnecessary use of a list of the argument
variables' types separate from the list of the argument variables
themselves; just look up the type of each argument variable when it is
processed.
compiler/add_special_pred.m:
When creating special (unify and compare) predicates for tuples,
include the offsets in the representation of their arguments.
Delete an unused predicate.
compiler/llds.m:
Add a new way to create an rval: a cast. We use it to implement
the extraction of signed sub-word-sized integers from packed argument
words in terms. Masking the right N bits out of the packed word
leaves the other 32-N or 64-N bits as zeroes; a cast to int8_t,
int16_t or int32_t will copy the sign bit to these bits.
Likewise, when we pack signed int{8,16,32} values into words,
we cast them to their unsigned versions to throw away any sign-extension
bits in their original word-sized representations.
No similar change is needed for the MLDS, since that already had
a mechanism for casts.
compiler/mlds.m:
Note a potential simplification in the MLDS.
compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
Add functions to return the Mercury representation of the int64
and uint64 types.
compiler/foreign.m:
Export a specialized version of an existing predicate, to allow
ml_unify_gen.m to avoid the costs of the more general version.
compiler/hlds_out_module.m:
Always print the representations of all arguments, since the
inclusion of position information in those representation means that
the representations of even all-full-word-argument terms are of potential
interest when debugging term representations.
compiler/lco.m:
Do not try to apply LCO to arguments of dummy types. (We could optimize
them differently, by filling them in before they are "computed", but
that is a separate optimization, which is of *very* low priority.)
compiler/liveness.m:
Do not include variables of dummy types in resume points.
The reason for this is that the code that establishes a resume point
returns, for each such variable, a list of *lvals* where that variable
can be found. The new code in unify_gen.m will optimize away assignments
to values of dummy types, so there is *no* lval where they can be found.
We could allocate one, but doing so would be a pessimization. Instead,
we simply don't save and restore such values. When their value (which is
always 0) is needed, we can create them out of thin air.
compiler/ml_global_data.m:
Include the target language in the ml_global_data structure, to prevent
some of its users having to look it up in the module_info.
Add notes about the specializing the implementation of arrays of
int64s/uint64s on 32 bit platforms.
compiler/check_typeclass.m:
compiler/ml_type_gen.m:
Add sanity checks of the new precomputed fields of exist_constraints.
Conform to the changes above.
compiler/mlds_to_c.m:
Add prelim (not yet finished) support for double-word int64s/uint64s
on 32 bit platforms.
Add notes about possible optimizations.
compiler/parse_type_defn.m:
When a function symbol in a type definition contains existential
arguments, precompute and store the set of constrained and unconstrained
type variables. The code in du_type_layout.m needs this information
to compute the number of slots occupied by typeinfos and typeclass_infos
in memory cells for this function symbol, and several other places
in the compiler do too. It is easier and faster to compute this
information just once, and this is the earliest time what that can be done.
compiler/type_ctor_info.m:
Use the prerecorded information about existential types to simplify
the code here
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Add an XXX about possibly using the extra info we now record in
exist_constraints to simplify the job of polymorphism.m.
compiler/pragma_c_gen.m:
compiler/var_locn.m:
Create the values of dummy variables from scratch, if needed.
compiler/rtti.m:
Replace a bool with a bespoke type.
compiler/rtti_out.m:
compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m:
When generating RTTI information for the LLDS and MLDS backends
respectively, record new kinds of arguments as needing special
treatment. These are int64s and uint64s stored unboxed in two words
on 32 bit platforms, {int,uint}{8,16,32} values packed into words,
and dummy arguments. Each of these has a special code: its own negative
negative value in the num_bits field of the argument.
Generate slightly better formatted output.

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.

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.

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.

Construct partially instantiated direct arg functor values.
Construction unifications of partially instantiated values involving direct argument functors (where the single argument is free) did not generate any code in both low-level and high-level backends. Incorrect behaviour could result if the program tried to deconstruct the value at run-time. Also, in the LLDS backend, such a construction unification did not enter the variable into the var_state_map, leading to a compiler abort when the variable is looked up. compiler/ml_unify_gen.m: Generate code for constructions of a direct arg functor with free argument. This amounts to assigning a variable to a tagged null pointer. compiler/llds.m: Add an rval option `mkword_hole', which is like `mkword' but the pointer to be tagged is unspecified. compiler/unify_gen.m: Assign a variable to an `mkword_hole' rval, for a construction unification of a direct arg functor with a free argument.

A bunch of individually small changes to speed up the compiler when compiling
Estimated hours taken: 8
Branches: main
A bunch of individually small changes to speed up the compiler when compiling
training_cars_full.m. Altogether, the changes speed up the compiler on that
task by a bit more than 11% when the target grade is asm_fast.gc, and by a bit
more than 7% when the target grade is hlc.gc. (Several of the changes affect
the code that optimizes the LLDS; we don't have corresponding optimizers
for the MLDS.)
compiler/c_util.m:
Specialize the code that prints out quoted strings for the target
language. We don't want to check the target language during
the conversion of EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER.
compiler/dead_proc_elim.m:
When we analyze the module for inlining, we are only after the
use counts of procedures. We do not need to traverse ground structures
to get those counts.

Highlight discrepancies between comments on the declarations
of two predicates and comments on their code.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:
Reorder the bodies of some test conditions to put the cheaper and
more-frequently-failing tests first.
compiler/labelopt.m:

labelopt then throws away; allow opt_util.m not to gather those
addresses in the first place (if the unused_args optimization
is applied to it, which it is by default.)
In opt_util.m, make an unnecessarily-exported predicate private.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Use predicates in varset.m that do directly what we want, instead
of using a different predicate and then post-processing its output.
(The code was originally written before the directly useful predicate
in varset.m was available.)

at all.

Fix a number of bugs in dependent parallel conjunctions and loop control.
Don't transform left-recursive parallel loops into right-recursive loops when
loop control is enabled.
compiler/par_conj_gen.m:
If a loop control scope instantiates a non-local variable that is not
protected by a future ensure that it has a stack slot allocated, and that
the code_info state (used by the code generator) knows where this variable
will be on the stack so that once it is needed it can be used.
An example of this is the variable Y in list.map.
Use a correctly-sized (but not compressed) stack frame for the spawned off
code.
Fix a silly typeo that prevented get_future goals from being added when
they where needed.
Tidy up some code.
compiler/code_util.m:
compiler/opt_util.m:
Move instr_get_rvals_and_lvals from opt_util.m to code_util.m and export it
so that it can be used by par_conj_gen. Modify this predicate so that it
stores rvals and lvals in sets, hopefully reducing the number of rvals and
lvals that need to be represented.
compiler/dep_par_conj.m:
Because left recursion has historically been faster than right recursion,
we used to detect when it was possible to transform right into left
recursion (by swapping the conjuncts in a parallel conjunction). Now that
loop control is effective we disable this hack when loop control is
enabled.
This change made it easy for me to test non tail-recursive loop control
cases like list.map
compiler/live_vars.m:
When a parallel conjunction is transformed into a loop control scope and
then liveness analysis is applied it mis-calculates the death of variables
that die in the loop control scope.
map_foldl(M, F, [X | Xs], !Acc) :-
spawn_off(
M(X, Y),
F(Y, !Acc)
),
...
some_other_code_that_needs_stack_slots,
...
map_foldl(M, F, Xs, !Acc).
X dies after the call to M (post death), Similarly Y dies after the call to
F, depending on dep_par_conj.m Y may also need a stack slot. However,
since M is executing in parallel with
some_other_code_that_needs_stack_slots, the stack slots used by X and Y are
still being used by the spawned off code. And they may continue to be used
up to the recursive call. It is okay if they die within the spawned off
scope, but according to the some_other_code_that_needs_stack_slots, they
need to be alive. so that they have correctly allocated stack slots. They
may then die after the recursive call (at which point the barrier for the
spawned off code will have completed).
live_vars.m therefore tracks these variables and delays their death (after
resurrecting them at the end of the scope) until the recursive call.
Part of this should probably be handled in liveness.m, however the loop
control scope will still need to resurrect these variables. Additionally
there is already code in live_vars to recognize loop control scopes and
their implicit barriers.

Branches: main Add float registers to the Mercury abstract machine, implemented as an array of MR_Float in the Mercury engine structure. Float registers are only useful if a Mercury `float' is wider than a word (i.e. when using double precision floats on 32-bit platforms) so we let them exist only then. In other cases floats may simply be passed via the regular registers, as before. Currently, higher order calls still require the use of the regular registers for all arguments. As all exported procedures are potentially the target of higher order calls, exported procedures must use only the regular registers for argument passing. This can lead to more (un)boxing than if floats were simply always boxed. Until this is solved, float registers must be enabled explicitly with the developer only option `--use-float-registers'. The other aspect of this change is using two consecutive stack slots to hold a single double variable. Without that, the benefit of passing unboxed floats via dedicated float registers would be largely eroded. compiler/options.m: Add developer option `--use-float-registers'. compiler/handle_options.m: Disable `--use-float-registers' if floats are not wider than words. compiler/make_hlds_passes.m: If `--use-float-registers' is in effect, enable a previous change that allows float constructor arguments to be stored unboxed in structures. compiler/hlds_llds.m: Move `reg_type' here from llds.m and `reg_f' option. Add stack slot width to `stack_slot' type. Add register type and stack slot width to `abs_locn' type. Remember next available float register in `abs_follow_vars'. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Add register type to `arg_loc' type. compiler/llds.m: Add a new kind of lval: double-width stack slots.

Implement a new form of memory profiling, which tells the user what memory
Branches: main
Implement a new form of memory profiling, which tells the user what memory
is being retained during a program run. This is done by allocating an extra
word before each cell, which is used to "attribute" the cell to an
allocation site. The attribution, or "allocation id", is an address to an
MR_AllocSiteInfo structure generated by the Mercury compiler, giving the
procedure, filename and line number of the allocation, and the type
constructor and arity of the cell that it allocates.
The user must manually instrument the program with calls to
`benchmarking.report_memory_attribution', which forces a GC and summarises
the live objects on the heap using the attributions. The mprof tool is
extended with a new mode to parse and present that data.
Objects which are unattributed (e.g. by hand-written C code which hasn't
been updated) are still accounted for, but show up in profiles as "unknown".
Currently this profiling mode only works in conjunction with the Boehm
garbage collector, though in principle it can work with any memory allocator
for which we can access a list of the live objects. Since term size
profiling relies on the same technique of using an extra word per memory
cell, the two profiling modes are incompatible.
The output from `mprof -s' looks like this:
------ [1] some label ------
cells words cumul procedure / type (location)

Add more threadscope instrumentation.
This change introduces instrumentation that tracks sparks as well as parallel
conjunctions and their conjuncts. This should hopefully give us more
information to diagnose runtime performance issues.
As of this date the ThreadScope program hasn't been updated to read or
understand these new events.
runtime/mercury_threadscope.[ch]:
Added a function and types to register all the threadscope strings from an
array.
Add functions to post the new events (see below).
runtime/mercury_threadscope.c:
Added support for 5 new threadscope events.
Registering a string so that other messages may refer to a constant
string.
Marking the beginning and ends of parallel conjunctions.
Creating a spark for a parallel conjunct.
Finishing a parallel conjunct.
Re-arranged event IDs, I've started allocating IDs from 38 onwards for
general purposes and 100 onwards for mercury specific events after talking
with Duncan Coutts.
Trimmed excess whitespace from the end of lines.
runtime/mercury_context.h:
Post a beginning parallel conjunction message when the sync term for the
parallel conjunction is initialized.
Post an event when creating a spark for a parallel conjunction.
Add a MR_spark_id field to the MR_Spark structure, these identify sparks to
threadscope.
runtime/mercury_context.c:

Post a threadscope event when a parallel conjunct is completed.
Add a missing memory barrier.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
Create a global function pointer for the code that registers strings in the
threadscope string table, this is filled in by mkinit.
Call this function pointer immediatly after setting up threadscope.
runtime/mercury_wsdeque.[ch]:
Modify MR_wsdeque_pop_bottom to return the spark pointer (which points onto
the queue) rather then returning a result through a pointer and bool if the
operation was successful. This pointer is safe to dereference until
MR_wsdeque_push_bottom is used.
runtime/mercury_wsdeque.c:
Corrected a code comment.
runtime/mercury_engine.h:
Documented some of the fields of the engine structure that hadn't been
documented.
Add a next spark ID field to the engine structure.
Change the type of the engine ID field to MR_uint_least16_t

into the threadscope string table of the static conjunction ID.
Add a field to the c_file structure containing the threadscope string
table.

Added a new layout array name for the threadscope string table.
compiler/layout_out.m:
Implement code to write out the threadscope string table.
compiler/llds_out_file.m:
Write out the threadscope string table when writing out the c_file.
compiler/par_conj_gen.m:

init_sync_term LLDS instruction. These strings are added to a table in the
!CodeInfo and the index of the string is added to the init_sync_term
instruction.
Add an extra instruction after a parallel conjunction to post the message
that the parallel conjunction has completed.
compiler/global_data.m:
Add fields to the global data structure to represent the threadscope string
table and its current size.
Add predicates to update and retrieve the table.
Handle merging of threadscope string tables in global data by allowing the
references to the strings to be remapped.
Refactored remapping code so that a caller such as proc_gen only needs to
call one remapping predicate after merging global data..
compiler/code_info.m:
Add a table of strings for use with threadscope to the code_info_persistent
type.
Modify the code_info_init to initialise the threadscope string table fields.
Add a predicate to get the string table and another to update it.
compiler/proc_gen.m:
Build the containing goal map before code generation for procedures with
parallel conjunctions in a parallel grade. par_conj_gen.m depends on this.
Conform to changes in code_info.m and global_data.m

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).

compiler/reassign.m:
compiler/use_local_vars.m:
Conform to the changes above.
runtime/mercury_goto.h:
Add the macros used by the new code in layout_out.m and llds_out.m.
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}:
tests/debugger/declarative/*.{inp,exp}:
Update these test cases to account for the new (and better) order
of proc layout structures. Where inputs changed, this was to ensure
that we still select the same procedures from lists of procedures,
e.g. to put a breakpoint on.

Fix two problems that together caused bug Mantis bug #44.
Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Fix two problems that together caused bug Mantis bug #44. The first bug was that unify_gen.m wasn't checking whether a variable it was adding to a closure was of dummy type or not. The second bug was that the code for recognizing whether a type is dummy or not recognized only two cases: builtin dummy types such as io.state, and types with one function symbol of arity zero. In this program, there is a notag wrapper around a dummy type. Since the representation of a notag type is always the same as the type it wraps, this notag type should be recognized as a dummy type too. compiler/unify_gen.m: Fix the first bug by adding the required checks. compiler/code_info.m: Add a utility predicate to factor out some now common code in unify_gen.m. (The modifications to all the following files were to fix the second bug.) compiler/hlds_data.m: compiler/prog_type.m: Change the type_category type (in prog_type.m) and the enum_or_dummy type (in hlds_data.m) to separate out the representation of notag types from other du types. This allows the fix for the second bug, and incidentally allows some parts of the compiler to avoid the same tests over and over. To ensure that all places in the compiler that could need special handling for notag types get them, rename those types to type_ctor_category (since it does *not* take argument types into account) and du_type_kind respectively. Since the type_ctor_category type needs to be modified anyway, change it to allow code that manipulates values of the type to factor out common code fragments. Rename some predicates, and turn some into functions where this helps to make code (either here or in clients) more robust. compiler/make_tags.m: When creating a HLDS representation for a du type, record whether it is a notag type (we already recorded whether it is enum or dummy). compiler/type_util.m: Fix the predicate that tests for dummy types by recognizing the third way a type can be a dummy type. Don't test for dummyness of the argument when deciding whether a type could be a notag types; just record it as a notag type, and let later lookup code use the new fixed algorithm to do the right thing. Add a type for recording the is_dummy_type/is_not_dummy_type distinction. Rename some predicates, and turn some into functions where this helps to make code (either here or in clients) more robust.

Implement conditional structure reuse for LLDS backends using Boehm GC.
Estimated hours taken: 15
Branches: main
Implement conditional structure reuse for LLDS backends using Boehm GC.
Verify at run time, just before reusing a dead cell, that the base address of
the cell was dynamically allocated. If not, fall back to allocating a new
object on the heap. This makes structure reuse safe without having to disable
static data.
In the simple case, the generated C code looks like this:
MR_tag_reuse_or_alloc_heap(dest, tag, addr_of_reuse_cell,
MR_tag_alloc_heap(dest, tag, count));
...assign fields...
If some of the fields are known to already have the correct values then we can
avoid assigning them. We need to handle both reuse and non-reuse cases:
MR_tag_reuse_or_alloc_heap_flag(dest, flag_reg, tag, addr_of_reuse_cell,
MR_tag_alloc_heap(dest, tag, count));
/* flag_reg is non-zero iff reuse is possible */
if (flag_reg) {
goto skip;
}
...assign fields which don't need to be assigned in reuse case...
skip:
...assign fields which must be assigned in both cases...
It may be that it is not worth the branch to avoid assigning known fields.
I haven't yet checked.
compiler/llds.m:
Extend the `incr_hp' instruction to hold information for structure
reuse.
compiler/code_info.m:
Generate a label and pass it to `var_locn_assign_cell_to_var'. The
label is only needed for the type of code shown above.
compiler/var_locn.m:
Change the code generated for cell reuse. Rather than assigning the
dead cell's address to the target lval unconditionally, generate an
`incr_hp' instruction with the reuse field filled in.
Generate code that avoids filling in known fields if possible.
Abort if we see `construct_statically(_)' in
`var_locn_assign_dynamic_cell_to_var'.
runtime/mercury_heap.h:
runtime/mercury_conf_param.h:
Add a macro to check if an address is between
`GC_least_plausible_heap_addr' and `GC_greatest_plausible_heap_addr',
which are therefore in the heap.
Add macros to conditionally reuse a cell or otherwise fall back to
allocating a new object.
Make it possible to revert to unconditional structure reuse by
defining the C macro `MR_UNCONDITIONAL_STRUCTURE_REUSE'.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Call the new macros in `mercury_heap.h' for `incr_hp' instructions
with reuse information filled in.

Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate
Estimated hours taken: 40
Branches: main
Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate
more than one cons_id with a switch arm. Previously, for switches like this:
(
X = a,
goal1
;
( X = b
; X = c
),
goal2
)
we duplicated goal2. With this diff, goal2 won't be duplicated. We still
duplicate goals when that is necessary, i.e. in cases which the inner
disjunction contains code other than a functor test on the switched-on var,
like this:
(
X = a,
goal1
;
(
X = b,
goalb
;
X = c
goalc
),
goal2
)
For now, true multi-cons_id arm switches are supported only by the LLDS
backend. Supporting them on the MLDS backend is trickier, because some MLDS
target languages (e.g. Java) don't support the concept at all. So when
compiling to MLDS, we still duplicate the goal in switch detection (although
we could delay the duplication to just before code generation, if we wanted.)
compiler/options.m:
Add an internal option that tells switch detection whether to look for
multi-cons_id switch arms.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Set this option based on the back end.
Add a version of the "trans" dump level that doesn't print unification
details.
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
Extend the representation of switch cases to allow more than one
cons_id for a switch arm.
Add a type for representing switches that also includes tag information
(for use by the backends).
compiler/hlds_data.m:
For du types, record whether it is possible to speed up tests for one
cons_id (e.g. cons) by testing for the other (nil) and negating the
result. Recording this information once is faster than having
unify_gen.m trying to compute it from scratch for every single
tag test.
Add a type for representing a cons_id together with its tag.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
Print out the cheaper_tag_test information for types, and possibly
several cons_ids for each switch arm.
Add some utility predicates for describing switch arms in terms of
which cons_ids they are for.
Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types.
Make hlds_out honor is documentation, and not print out detailed
information about unifications (e.g. uniqueness and static allocation)
unless the right character ('u') is present in the control string.
compiler/add_type.m:
Fill in the information about cheaper tag tests when adding a du type.
compiler/switch_detection.m:
Extend the switch detection algorithm to detect multi-cons_id switch
arms.
When entering a switch arm, update the instmap to reflect that the
switched-on variable can now be bound only to the cons_ids that this
switch arm is for. We now need to do this, because if the arm contains
another switch on the same variable, computing the can_fail field of
that switch correctly requires us to know this information.
(Obviously, an arm for a single cons_id is unlikely to have switch on
the same variable, and for arms for several cons_ids, we previously
duplicated the arm and left the unification with the cons_id in each
copy, and this unification allowed the correct handling of any later
switches. However, the code of a multi-cons_id switch arm obviously
cannot have a unification with each cons_id in it, which is why
we now need to get the binding information from the switch itself.)
Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types, and give some
predicates better names.
compiler/instmap.m:
Provide predicates for recording that a switched-on variable has
one of several given cons_ids, for use at the starts of switch arms.
Give some predicates better names.
compiler/modes.m:
Provide predicates for updating the mode_info at the start of a
multi-cons_id switch arm.
compiler/det_report.m:
Handle multi-cons_id switch arms.
Update the instmap when entering each switch arm, since this is needed
to provide good (i.e. non-misleading) error messages when one switch on
a variable exists inside another switch on the same variable.
Since updating the instmap requires updating the module_info (since
the new inst may require a new entry in an inst table), thread the
det_info through as updateable state.
Replace some multi-clause predicate definitions with single clauses,
to make it easier to print the arguments in mdb.
Fix some misleading variable names.
compiler/det_analysis.m:
Update the instmap when entering each switch arm and thread the
det_info through as updateable state, since the predicates we call
in det_report.m require this.
compiler/det_util.m:
Handle multi-cons_id switch arms.
Rationalize the argument order of some access predicates.
compiler/switch_util.m:
Change the parts of this module that deal with string and tag switches
to optionally convert each arm to an arbitrary representation of the
arm. In the LLDS backend, the conversion process generated code for
the arm, and the arm's representation is the label at the start of
this code. This way, we can duplicate the label without duplicating
the code.
Add a new part of this module that associates each cons_id with its
tag, and (during the same pass) checks whether all the cons_ids are
integers, and if so what are min and max of these integers (needed
for dense switches). This scan is needed because the old way of making
this test had single-cons_id switch arms as one of its basic
assumptions, and doing it while adding tags to each case reduces
the number of traversals required.
Give better names to some predicates.
compiler/switch_case.m:
New module to handle the tasks associated with managing multi-cons_id
switch arms, including representing them for switch_util.m.
compiler/ll_backend.m:
Include the new module.
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
Note the new module.
compiler/llds.m:
Change the computed goto instruction to take a list of maybe labels
instead of a list of labels, with any missing labels meaning "not
reached".
compiler/string_switch.m:
compiler/tag_switch.m:
Reorganize the way these modules work. We can't generate the code of
each arm in place anymore, since it is now possible for more than one
cons_id to call for the execution of the same code. Instead, in
string_switch.m, we generate the codes of all the arms all at once,
and construct the hash index afterwards. (This approach simplifies
the code significantly.)
In tag switches (unlike string switches), we can get locality benefits
if the code testing for a cons_id is close to the code for that
cons_id, so we still try to put them next to each other when such
a locality benefit is available.
In both modules, the new approach uses a utility predicate in
switch_case.m to actually generate the code of each switch arm,
eliminating several copies the same code in the old versions of these
modules.
In tag_switch.m, don't create a local label that simply jumps to the
code address do_not_reached. Previously, we had to do this for
positions in jump tables that corresponded to cons_ids that the switch
variable could not be bound to. With the change to llds.m, we now
simply generate a "no" instead.
compiler/lookup_switch.m:
Get the info about int switch limits from our caller; don't compute it
here.
Give some variables better names.
compiler/dense_switch.m:
Generate the codes of the cases all at once, then assemble the table,
duplicate the labels as needed. This separation of concerns allows
significant simplifications.
Pack up all the information shared between the predicate that detects
whether a dense switch is appropriate and the predicate that actually
generates the dense switch.
Move some utility predicates to switch_util.
compiler/switch_gen.m:
Delete the code for tagging cons_ids, since that functionality is now
in switch_util.m.
The old version of this module could call the code generator to produce
(i.e. materialize) the switched-on variable repeatedly. We now produce
the variable once, and do the switch on the resulting rval.
compiler/unify_gen.m:
Use the information about cheaper tag tests in the type constructor's
entry in the HLDS type table, instead of trying to recompute it
every time.
Provide the predicates switch_gen.m now needs to perform tag tests
on rvals, as opposed to variables, and against possible more than one
cons_id.
Allow the caller to provide the tag corresponding to the cons_id(s)
in tag tests, since when we are generating code for switches, the
required computations have already been done.
Factor out some code to make all this possible.
Give better names to some predicates.
compiler/code_info.m:
Provide some utility predicates for the new code in other modules.
Give better names to some existing predicates.
compiler/hlds_code_util.m:
Rationalize the argument order of some predicates.
Replace some multi-clause predicate definitions with single clauses,
to make it easier to print the arguments in mdb.

Make the parallel conjunction execution mechanism more efficient.
Branches: main Make the parallel conjunction execution mechanism more efficient. 1. Don't allocate sync terms on the heap. Sync terms are now allocated in the stack frame of the procedure call which originates a parallel conjunction. 2. Don't allocate individual sparks on the heap. Sparks are now stored in preallocated, growing arrays using an algorithm that doesn't use locks. 3. Don't have one mutex per sync term. Just use one mutex to protect concurrent accesses to all sync terms (it's is rarely needed anyway). This makes sync terms smaller and saves initialising a mutex for each parallel conjunction encountered. 4. We don't bother to acquire the global sync term lock if we know a parallel conjunction couldn't be executing in parallel. In a highly parallel program, the majority of parallel conjunctions will be executed sequentially so protecting the sync terms from concurrent accesses is unnecessary. par_fib(39) is ~8.4 times faster (user time) on my laptop (Linux 2.6, x86_64), which is ~3.5 as slow as sequential execution. configure.in: Update the configuration for a changed MR_SyncTerm structure. compiler/llds.m: Make the fork instruction take a second argument, which is the base stack slot of the sync term.

Add support for foreign enumerations to Mercury.
Estimated hours taken: 50
Branches: main
Add support for foreign enumerations to Mercury. These allow the
programmer to assign foreign language values as the representation of
enumeration constructors.
e.g.
:- type status
---> optimal
; infeasible
; unbounded
; unknown.
:- pragma foreign_enum("C", status/0, [
optimal - "STATUS_OPTIMAL",
infeasible - "STATUS_INFEASIBLE",
unbounded - "STATUS_UNBOUNDED",
unknown - "STATUS_UNKNOWN"
]).
The advantage of this is that when values of type status/0 are passed to
foreign code (C in this case) no translation is necessary. This should
simplify the task of writing bindings to foreign language libraries.
Unification and comparison for foreign enumerations are the usual
unification and comparison for enumeration types, except that the default
ordering on them is determined by the foreign representation of the
constructors. User-defined equality and comparison also work for foreign
enumeration types.
In order to implement foreign enumerations we have to introduce two
new type_ctor representations. The existing ones for enum type do not
work since they use the value of an enumeration constructor to perform
table lookups in the RTTI data structures. For foreign enumerations
we need to perform a linear search at the corresponding points. This
means that some RTTI operations related to deconstruction are more
expensive.
The dummy type optimisation is not applied to foreign enumerations as
the code generators currently initialise the arguments of non-builtin
dummy type foreign_proc arguments to zero. For unit foreign enumerations
they should be initialised to the correct foreign value. (This is could be
implemented but in practice it's probably not going to be worth it.)
Currently, foreign enumerations are only supported by the C backends.

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. |

Make all functions which create strings from characters throw an exception
Estimated hours taken: 15 Branches: main Make all functions which create strings from characters throw an exception or fail if the list of characters contains a null character. This removes a potential source of security vulnerabilities where one part of the program performs checks against the whole of a string passed in by an attacker (processing the string as a list of characters or using `unsafe_index' to look past the null character), but then passes the string to another part of the program or an operating system call that only sees up to the first null character. Even if Mercury stored the length with the string, allowing the creation of strings containing nulls would be a bad idea because it would be too easy to pass a string to foreign code without checking. For examples see: <http://insecure.org/news/P55-07.txt> <http://www.securiteam.com/securitynews/5WP0B1FKKQ.html> <http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/445788> <http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/82/368750> <http://secunia.com/advisories/16420/> NEWS: Document the change. library/string.m: Throw an exception if null characters are found in string.from_char_list and string.from_rev_char_list. Add string.from_char_list_semidet and string.from_rev_char_list_semidet which fail rather throwing an exception. This doesn't match the normal naming convention, but string.from_{,rev_}char_list are widely used, so changing their determinism would be a bit too disruptive. Don't allocate an unnecessary extra word for each string created by from_char_list and from_rev_char_list. Explain that to_upper and to_lower only work on un-accented Latin letters. library/lexer.m: Check for invalid characters when reading Mercury strings and quoted names. Improve error messages by skipping to the end of any string or quoted name containing an error. Previously we just stopped processing at the error leaving an unmatched quote. library/io.m: Make io.read_line_as_string and io.read_file_as_string return an error code if the input file contains a null character. Fix an XXX: '\0\' is not recognised as a character constant, but char.det_from_int can be used to make a null character. library/char.m: Explain the workaround for '\0\' not being accepted as a char constant.

Extend this optimization to handle temporaries being both defined in
Estimated hours taken: 12
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,
since the cost of the I/O itself overwhelms the cost of the
MR_fake_reg accesses.
Group together the LLDS instructions that are handled similarly.
Factor out some common code.
compiler/opt_util.m:
Allow for the fact that foreign_proc_codes can now refer to
temporaries.

Rename the types and function symbols of the recently added
foreign_proc attributes to avoid clashing with the keywords
representing them in source code.
Add a new foreign_proc attribute, proc_may_duplicate that governs
whether the body of foreign code is allowed to be duplicated.
compiler/table_gen.m:
Include does_not_affect_liveness among the annotations for the
foreign_proc calls generated by this module. Some of these procedures
affect memory beyond their arguments, but that memory is in tables,
not in unlisted registers.
Allow some of the smaller code fragments generated by this module
to be duplicated.
compiler/inlining.m:
Respect the may_not_duplicate foreign_proc attribute.

Use the new foreign_proc attribute instead of a boolean to represent
whether a foreign code fragment may be duplicated.

Generate an error message if a may_duplicate or may_not_duplicate
attribute on a foreign_proc conflicts with a no_inline or inline pragma

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 a mechanism for growing the stacks on demand by adding new segments
Estimated hours taken: 20 Branches: main Add a mechanism for growing the stacks on demand by adding new segments to them. You can ask for the new mechanism via a new grade component, stseg (short for "stack segments"). The mechanism works by adding a test to each increment of a stack pointer (sp or maxfr). If the test indicates that we are about to run out of stack, we allocate a new stack segment, allocate a placeholder frame on the new segment, and then allocate the frame we wanted in the first place on top of the placeholder. We also override succip to make it point code that will (1) release the new segment when the newly created stack frame returns, and then (2) go to the place indicated by the original, overridden succip. For leaf procedures on the det stack, we optimize away the check of the stack pointer. We can do this because we reserve some space on each stack for the use of such stack frames. My intention is that doc/user_guide.texi and NEWS will be updated once we have used the feature ourselves for a while and it seems to be stable. runtime/mercury_grade.h: Add the new grade component. runtime/mercury_conf_param.h: Document the new grade component, and the option used to debug stack segments. runtime/mercury_context.[ch]: Add new fields to contexts to hold the list of previous segments of the det and nondet stacks. runtime/mercury_memory_zones.[ch]: Include a threshold in all zones, for use in stack segments. Set it when a zone is allocated. Restore the previous #ifdef'd out function MR_unget_zone, for use when freeing stack segments execution has fallen out of. runtime/mercury_debug.[ch]: When printing the offsets of pointers into the det and nondet stacks, print the number of the segment the pointer points into (unless it is the first, in which case we suppress this in the interest of brevity and simplicity). Make all the functions in this module take a FILE * as an input argument; don't print to stdout by default. runtime/mercury_stacks.[ch]: Modify the macros that allocate stack frames to invoke the code for adding new stack segments when we are about to run out of stack. Standardize on "nondet" over "nond" as the abbreviation referring to the nondet stack.

Mmake.workspace: Fix an old bug that prevented bootcheck from working in the new grade: when computing the gc grade, use the workspace's version of ml (which in this case understands the new grade components), rather than the installed ml (which does not). (This was a devil to track down, because neither make --debug nor strace on make revealed how the installed ml was being invoked, and there was no explicit invocation in the Makefile either; the error message appeared to come out of thin air just before the completion of the stage 2 library. It turned out the invocation happened implicitly, as a result of expanding a make variable.) |

This patch changes the parallel execution mechanism in the low level backend.
Estimated hours taken: 100 Branches: main This patch changes the parallel execution mechanism in the low level backend. The main idea is that, even in programs with only moderate parallelism, we won't have enough processors to exploit it all. We should try to reduce the cost in the common case, i.e. when a parallel conjunction gets executed sequentially. This patch does two things along those lines: (1) Instead of unconditionally executing all parallel conjuncts (but the last) in separate Mercury contexts, we allow a context to continue execution of the next conjunct of a parallel conjunction if it has just finished executing the previous conjunct. This saves on allocating unnecessary contexts, which can be a big reduction in memory usage. We also try to execute conjuncts left-to-right so as to minimise the need to suspend contexts when there are dependencies between conjuncts. (2) Conjuncts that *are* executed in parallel still need separate contexts. We used to pass variable bindings to those conjuncts by flushing input variable values to stack slots and copying the procedure's stack frame to the new context. When the conjunct finished, we would copy new variable bindings back to stack slots in the original context. What happens now is that we don't do any copying back and forth. We introduce a new abstract machine register `parent_sp' which points to the location of the stack pointer at the time that a parallel conjunction began. In parallel conjuncts we refer to all stack slots via the `parent_sp' pointer, since we could be running on a different context altogether and `sp' would be pointing into a new detstack. Since parallel conjuncts now share the procedure's stack frame, we have to allocate stack slots such that all parallel conjuncts in a procedure that could be executing simultaneously have distinct sets of stack slots. We currently use the simplest possible strategy, i.e. don't allow variables in parallel conjuncts to reuse stack slots. Note: in effect parent_sp is a frame pointer which is only set for and used by the code of parallel conjuncts. We don't call it a frame pointer as it can be confused with "frame variables" which have to do with the nondet stack. compiler/code_info.m: Add functionality to keep track of how deep inside of nested parallel conjunctions the code generator is. Add functionality to acquire and release "persistent" temporary stack slots. Unlike normal temporary stack slots, these don't get implicitly released when the code generator's location-dependent state is reset. Conform to additions of `parent_sp' and parent stack variables. compiler/exprn_aux.m: Generalise the `substitute_lval_in_*' predicates by `transform_lval_in_*' predicates. Instead of performing a fixed substitution, these take a higher order predicate which performs some operation on each lval. Redefine the substitution predicates in terms of the transformation predicates. Conform to changes in `fork', `join_and_terminate' and `join_and_continue' instructions. Conform to additions of `parent_sp' and parent stack variables. Remove `substitute_rval_in_args' and `substitute_rval_in_arg' which were unused. compiler/live_vars.m: Introduce a new type `parallel_stackvars' which is threaded through `build_live_sets_in_goal'. We accumulate the sets of variables which are assigned stack slots in each parallel conjunct. At the end of processing a parallel conjunction, use this information to force variables which are assigned stack slots to have distinct slots. compiler/llds.m: Change the semantics of the `fork' instruction. It now takes a single argument: the label of the next conjunct after the current one. The instruction now "sparks" the next conjunct to be run, either in a different context (possibly in parallel, on another Mercury engine) or is queued to be executed in the current context after the current conjunct is finished. Change the semantics of the `join_and_continue' instruction. This instruction now serves to end all parallel conjuncts, not just the last one in a parallel conjunction. Remove the `join_and_terminate' instruction (no longer used). Add the new abstract machine register `parent_sp'. Introduce "parent stack slots", which are similar to normal stack slots but relative to the `parent_sp' register. compiler/par_conj_gen.m: Change the code generated for parallel conjunctions. That is: - use the new `fork' instruction at the beginning of a parallel conjunct; - use the `join_and_continue' instruction at the end of all parallel conjuncts; - keep track of how deep the code generator currently is in parallel conjunctions; - set and restore the `parent_sp' register when entering a non-nested parallel conjunction; - after generating the code of a parallel conjunct, replace all references to stack slots by parent stack slots; - remove code to copy back output variables when a parallel conjunct finishes. Update some comments. runtime/mercury_context.c: runtime/mercury_context.h: Add the type `MR_Spark'. Sparks are allocated on the heap and contain enough information to begin execution of a single parallel conjunct. Add globals `MR_spark_queue_head' and `MR_spark_queue_tail'. These are pointers to the start and end of a global queue of sparks. Idle engines can pick up work from this queue in the same way that they can pick up work from the global context queue (the "run queue"). Add new fields to the MR_Context structure. `MR_ctxt_parent_sp' is a saved copy of the `parent_sp' register for when the context is suspended. `MR_ctxt_spark_stack' is a stack of sparks that we decided not to put on the global spark queue. Update `MR_load_context' and `MR_save_context' to save and restore `MR_ctxt_parent_sp'. Add the counters `MR_num_idle_engines' and `MR_num_outstanding_contexts_and_sparks'. These are used to decide, when a `fork' instruction is reached, whether a spark should be put on the global spark queue (with potential for parallelism but also more overhead) or on the calling context's spark stack (no parallelism and less overhead). Rename `MR_init_context' to `MR_init_context_maybe_generator'. When initialising contexts, don't reset redzones of already allocated stacks. It seems to be unnecessary (and the reset implementation is buggy anyway, though it's fine on Linux). Rename `MR_schedule' to `MR_schedule_context'. Add new functions `MR_schedule_spark_globally' and `MR_schedule_spark_locally'. In `MR_do_runnext', add code for idle engines to get work from the global spark queue. Resuming contexts are prioritised over sparks. Rename `MR_fork_new_context' to `MR_fork_new_child'. Change the definitions of `MR_fork_new_child' and `MR_join_and_continue' as per the new behaviour of the `fork' and `join_and_continue' instructions. Delete `MR_join_and_terminate'. Add a new field `MR_st_orig_context' to the MR_SyncTerm structure to record which context originated the parallel conjunction instance represented by a MR_SyncTerm instance, and update `MR_init_sync_term'. This is needed by the new behaviour of `MR_join_and_continue'. Update some comments. runtime/mercury_engine.h: runtime/mercury_regs.c: runtime/mercury_regs.h: runtime/mercury_stacks.h: Add the abstract machine register `parent_sp' and code to copy it to and from the fake_reg array. Add a macro `MR_parent_sv' to access stack slots via `parent_sp'. Add `MR_eng_parent_sp' to the MercuryEngine structure. runtime/mercury_wrapper.c: runtime/mercury_wrapper.h: Add Mercury runtime option `--max-contexts-per-thread' which is saved in the global variable `MR_max_contexts_per_thread'. The number `MR_max_outstanding_contexts' is derived from this. It sets a soft limit on the number of sparks we put in the global spark queue, relative to the number of threads we are running. We don't want to put too many sparks on the global queue if there are plenty of ready contexts or sparks already on the global queues, as they are likely to result in new contexts being allocated. When initially creating worker engines, wait until all the worker engines have acknowledged that they are idle before continuing. This is mainly so programs (especially benchmarks and test cases) with only a few fork instructions near the beginning of the program don't execute the forks before any worker engines are ready, resulting in no parallelism. runtime/mercury_engine.c: runtime/mercury_thread.c: Don't allocate a context at the time a Mercury engine is created. An engine only needs a new context when it is about to pick up a spark. configure.in: compiler/options.m: scripts/Mercury.config.in: Update to reflect the extra field in MR_SyncTerm. Add the option `--sync-term-size' and actually make use the result of the sync term size calculated during configuration. compiler/code_util.m: compiler/continuation_info.m: compiler/dupelim.m: compiler/dupproc.m: compiler/global_data.m: compiler/hlds_llds.m: compiler/jumpopt.m: compiler/livemap.m: compiler/llds_out.m: compiler/middle_rec.m: compiler/opt_debug.m: compiler/opt_util.m: compiler/reassign.m: compiler/stack_layout.m: compiler/use_local_vars.m: compiler/var_locn.m: Conform to changes in `fork', `join_and_terminate' and `join_and_continue' instructions.

One of Hans Boehm's papers says that heap cells allocated by GC_MALLOC_ATOMIC
Estimated hours taken: 5 Branches: main One of Hans Boehm's papers says that heap cells allocated by GC_MALLOC_ATOMIC are grouped together into pages, and these pages aren't scanned during the sweep phase of the garbage collector. I therefore modified the compiler to use GC_MALLOC_ATOMIC instead of GC_MALLOC whereever possible, i.e when the cell being allocated is guaranteed not to have any pointer to GCable memory inside it. My first benchmarking run showed a speedup of 4.5% in asm_fast.gc: EXTRA_MCFLAGS = --use-atomic-cells mercury_compile.01 average of 6 with ignore=1 18.30 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = --no-use-atomic-cells mercury_compile.02 average of 6 with ignore=1 19.17 However, later benchmarks, after the upgrade to version 7.0 of boehm_gc, show a less favourable and more mixed picture, with e.g. a 4% speedup in hlc.gc at -O3, a 3% slowdown in asm_fast.gc at -O4, and little effect otherwise: EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O1 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.01 average of 6 with ignore=1 23.30 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O1 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.02 average of 6 with ignore=1 23.28 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O2 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.03 average of 6 with ignore=1 18.51 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O2 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.04 average of 6 with ignore=1 18.66 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O3 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.05 average of 6 with ignore=1 18.44 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O3 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.06 average of 6 with ignore=1 18.48 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O4 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.07 average of 6 with ignore=1 18.28 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O4 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = asm_fast.gc mercury_compile.08 average of 6 with ignore=1 17.70 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O1 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.09 average of 6 with ignore=1 24.78 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O1 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.10 average of 6 with ignore=1 24.69 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O2 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.11 average of 6 with ignore=1 19.36 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O2 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.12 average of 6 with ignore=1 19.26 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O3 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.13 average of 6 with ignore=1 18.64 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O3 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.14 average of 6 with ignore=1 19.38 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O4 --use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.15 average of 6 with ignore=1 19.39 EXTRA_MCFLAGS = -O4 --no-use-atomic-cells GRADE = hlc.gc mercury_compile.16 average of 6 with ignore=1 19.41 runtime/mercury_heap.h: Define atomic equivalents of the few heap allocation macros that didn't already have one.

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.

by mkinit to represent the initial values of the environment variables
referred to by trace goals.

Provide a mechanism for collecting statistics about tabling operations,
Estimated hours taken: 60
Branches: main
Provide a mechanism for collecting statistics about tabling operations,
and provide a much more convenient mechanism for resetting tables.
Since it would too complex to do this while preserving the capability
of setting --tabling-via-extra-args to no, eliminate that capability
and the option. That option was useful only for measurements of the
performance boost from setting --tabling-via-extra-args to yes in any case,
so users lose no functionality.
Previously, the only way to debug the low level details of the tabling
mechanism was to build a runtime with a specific C macro (MR_TABLE_DEBUG)
and link with that runtime; this was cumbersome. Change that so that
every one of the debuggable tabling macros has a bool argument that says
whether debugging is enabled or not. The compiler can then set this to
MR_TRUE if the new option --table-debug is given, and to MR_FALSE otherwise.
If set to MR_FALSE, the C compiler should optimize away the debug code,
with zero impact on program size or speed.
Since these changes to macros require nontrivial bootstrapping, which we don't
want to do unnecessarily, modify the interface of the tabling macros as
required to support size limits on tables. This diff also implements the
parsing of size limit specifications on tables, but does not implement them
yet; that is for a future change.
To make the syntax simpler, this diff deletes the free-standing fast_loose_memo
pragma. The same functionality is now available with a fast_loose annotation
on an ordinary memo pragma.
Make a bunch of changes to improve readability and maintainability
in the process. These mostly take the form of renaming ambiguous and/or
not sufficiently expressive function symbols.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling.h:
Move the description of structure of tables from mercury_stack_layout.h
to mercury_tabling.h, since we now need it for statistics even if
execution tracing is not enabled.
Modify those data structures to have room for the statistics.
Don't distinguish "strict", "fast_loose" and "specified" memoing
as separate eval methods; treat them as just different kinds
of the same eval method: "memo".
Remove underscores from the names of some types that the style guide
says shouldn't be there.
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_macros.h:
Modify the approach we use for macros that implement the predicates
of library/table_builtin.m. Instead of selecting between debug and
nondebug based on whether MR_TABLE_DEBUG is defined or not, add
an explicit argument controlling this to each debuggable macro.
The advantage of the new arrangement is that it scales. Another
argument controls whether we are computing statistics (and if yes,
where do we put it), and a third argument controls whether we maintain
back links in the tries and hash tables (this last argument is present
but is ignored for now).
Since the values of the arguments will be known when the .c files
containing calls to these macros are compiled, we pay the space and
time cost of debugging, statistics gathering and the maintenance of
back links if and only we need the revelant functionality.
Provide macros for limited backward compatibility with the old set
of macros; these allow workspaces created by old compilers to work
with the new macros in the runtime. The old macros followed the
naming scheme MR_table_*, the new ones are named MR_tbl_*.
runtime/mercury_table_int_fix_index_body.h:
runtime/mercury_table_int_start_index_body.h:
runtime/mercury_table_type_body.h:
New files containing parts of the old mercury_tabling.c. Each of these
files contains the body of the functions that used to be in
mercury_tabling.c. The new mercury_tabling.c #includes each of these
files more than once, to provide more than one variant of the old
function. These variants differ in aspects such as whether debugging
is enabled or statistics is being collected. Each variant therefore
incurs only the time costs it needs to. (We pay the space cost of
having all these variants all the time of course, but this cost
is negligible.)
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_defs.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_nodefs.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_undefs.h:
New files that serve as wrappers around the newly #included files,
controlling how they handle statistics.
runtime/mercury_tabling.c:
Delete functions now in the new files, and #include them instead.
Delete the data structures that used to contain summary statistics;
the new approach keeps statistics in compiler-generated,
procedure-specific data structures.
runtime/mercury_trace_base.c:
Use the new versions of the tabling macros to access the I/O table.
runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
Update some documentation for the movement of code out of
mercury_tabling.c.
runtime/mercury_types.h:
Provide forward declarations of the identifiers denoting the new types
in mercury_tabling.h.
runtime/mercury_grade.h:
Increment the exec trace version number, since we have changed
a part of the exec trace structure.
runtime/mercury_bootstrap.h:
Fix some temporary issues that arise from some renames above.
runtime/mercury_hash_lookup_or_add_body.h:
Fix comment.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Mention the new files and the dependencies that involve them.
library/table_builtin.m:
Provide a type for representing statistics and a predicate for
printing statistics.
Use the updated versions of the macros in
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h.
compiler/prog_item.m:
Change representation of tabling pragmas to allow room for the new
attributes.
Allow an item to be marked as being generated by the compiler
as a result of a pragma memo attribute. We use this for the reset
and statistics predicates.
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Write out the new attributes of the tabling pragma.
compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_data.m:
Change the cons_id that used to refer to a procedure's call table root
to refer to the entirety of the new data structure now containing it.
The compiler now needs a way to refer to the other components of this
new data structure, since it contains the statistics.
As in the runtime, don't distinguish "strict", "fast_loose" and
"specified" memoing as separate eval methods; treat them as just
different kinds of the same eval method: "memo".
Rename some of the uses of the function symbols "c", "java", "il".
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Add an extra field in proc_infos for storing any tabling attributes.
Change the existing proc_info field that records information about
the kinds of arguments of tabled procedures to record the information
needed by the debugger too. This was needed to allow us to shift all
the RTTI for procedure-specific tables (as opposed to the RTTI for
the global I/O table) from mercury_stack_layout.h to mercury_tabling.h
without duplicating the data (which would be a maintenance problem).
Reformat some comments to make them easier to read.
compiler/layout.m:
compiler/layout_out.m:
Delete the part of the exec trace information that used to record
RTTI for tables, since this information is not generated only as
part of the debugger data structures anymore.
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Recognize the updated syntax for tabling pragmas.
compiler/add_pragma.m:
When processing tabling pragmas for inclusion in the HLDS, create
any reset and statistics predicates they ask for.
compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
Export a predicate now needed by add_pragma.m.
Handle the new attributes on tabling pragmas
compiler/globals.m:
Change the function symbols of the types describing backends and
foreign languages to say what they are. Previously, both types (as well
as several others) included the function symbol "c"; now, they are
target_c and lang_c respectively.
compiler/table_gen.m:
Implement the changes described at the top.
When passing around varsets and vartypes, pass the arguments in the
standard order.
compiler/goal_util.m:
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
When passing around varsets and vartypes, pass the arguments in the
standard order.
compiler/rtti.m:
Provide types for representing the runtime's data structures for
tabling (which are now significantly more complex than a single word)
and predicates for manipulating them, for use by both the ml and ll
backends.
compiler/llds.m:
Replace the comp_gen_c_var type with the tabling_info_struct type,
which contains the information needed to create the per-procedure
tabling data structures.
Replace references to call tables with references to the various
components of the new tabling data structures.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Add code to write out tabling_info_structs.
Delete the code required for the old, hacky way of resetting tables.
Reorder some code more logically.
compiler/proc_gen.m:
Generate tabling_info_structs.
compiler/stack_layout.m:
Don't generate the information now generated in proc_gen.m.
compiler/mlds.m:
Give mlds_proc_labels their own function symbols, instead of using
a pair. Rename some other function symbols to avoid ambiguity and add
expressiveness.
Provide for the representation of references to the various components
of the new tabling data structures, and for the representation of their
types.
compiler/ml_code_gen.m:
When generating code for a tabled procedure, generate also the data
structures required for its table.
compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m:
compiler/ml_util.m:
Move some predicates from rtti_to_mlds.m to ml_util.m, since we
now also want to call them from ml_code_gen.m.
compiler/name_mangle.m:
Add some utility predicates.
compiler/options.m:
Delete the old --allow-table-reset option.
Add the new --table-debug option.
Comment out an implementor-only option.

Make the names of the function symbols of the proc_label type more
expressive and less ambiguous.

mdbcomp/mdbcomp.m:
mdbcomp/program_representation.m:
mdbcomp/rtti_access.m:

browser/declarative_oracle.m:
browser/declarative_tree.m:
Conform the change to mdbcomp/prim_data.m.
tests/debugger/Mercury.options:
Don't specify --allow-table-reset for fib.m, since that option
doesn't exist anymore.
tests/debugger/fib.m:
Use the new mechanism for resetting the table.
tests/debugger/print_table.m:
Use the new syntax for pragma memo attributes.
tests/invalid/specified.{m,err_exp}:
Use to the new syntax and reset method for pragma memo attributes.
Test the handling of errors in the new attribute syntax.
tests/tabling/Mercury.options:
Don't specify --allow-table-reset for specified.m, since that option
doesn't exist anymore.
tests/tabling/specified.m:
Use the new syntax for pragma memo attributes, and use the new
mechanism for resetting tables. We could also use this test case
for testing the printing of statistics, but the format of that
output is still not final.
tests/tabling/fast_loose.m:
Use the new syntax for pragma memo attributes, and use the new
mechanism for resetting tables.
trace/mercury_trace.c:
trace/mercury_trace_cmd_developer.c:
Conform to the changes in the RTTI data structures regarding tabling.
Remove underscores from the names of some types that the style guide
says shouldn't be there.
library/robdd.m:
Comment out the tabling pragma until this change is bootstrapped.
Without this, the conflict between the old calls to macros generated
by the existing compiler and the new definition of those macros
in the runtime would cause errors from the C compiler.
