6f82724091 Pass streams explicitly at the top levels.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Change some predicates that used to operate on var_{name,type}_sources
    to operate on var_tables.

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Delete the unused predicate proc_info_ensure_unique_names.

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Export the previously-private predicate transform_var_table
    to post_typecheck.

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

    - not passing a module_info to get a var_table out of a proc_info, but
    - having to pass a module_info to code that either constructs a var_table,
      or adds entries to a var_table (since we now need the type table
      to figure out whether variables' types are dummies).

4c9d04434a Classify pred_names into four categories.
compiler/pred_name.m:
    Group pred_origins into four categories, giving each category its own
    function symbol. The categories are

    - predicates that contain, or may contain, code directly written
      by the user;
    - predicates created wholly by the compiler,
    - predicates created by the compiler by transforming a predicate, and
    - predicates created by the compiler by transforming a procedure.

    We distinguish between the first two because we want to report
    errors only in user-written code, since reporting an error that
    the user is powerless to fix is not a good idea.

    We distinguish between the last two just to allow us to store
    the proc_id of the transformed procedure next to its pred_id.

compiler/higher_order.m:
    Replace a boolean with value of a bespoke type.

    Rename some predicates to avoid ambiguity.

08365979d0 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.

compiler/hlds.m:

compiler/pred_name.m:
    Move pred_name.m from the parse_tree package to the hlds package.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Change the representation of type_spec pragmas to

    - delete the name of the specialized predicate, and replace it with
    - the name of the module the pragma was read in from.

compiler/parse_pragma.m:
    Delete the code for parsing the third argument of type_spec pragmas.
    Allow them to exist for a short transition period, but ignore them.
    (If we read in files containing them, the result will be a link error
    if the type substitution contains anonymous variables. In that case,
    a rebuild of the program with all modules compiled using the *same
    compiler version* will work.)

    Give guaranteed-to-be-unique names to all anonymous type variable
    in the type substitution part of the type_spec pragma we construct.

compiler/add_pragma_type_spec.m:
    Construct the name of the type-specialized predicate as the type_spec
    pragma is added to the HLDS.

compiler/parse_tree_out_pragma.m:
    Never write out a type_spec par_loop_control with a third argument.

    Delete the var_name_print argument of the predicate that writes out
    type_spec pragmas. Instead, *always* use print_name_only.

af196031ea Move pred_origin towards a structured pred_name.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    Add a long comment about using pred_origin as a structured pred name.

    Delete the origin_created pred_origin with origin_deforestation,
    which was one of two ways that the compiler could create new predicates
    that weren't derived from one existing predicate, procedure, or other
    single Mercury construct. (Deforestation picks a conjunction of two
    or more goals, and created a new predicate out of *them*.)
    Replace the other, created_by_io_tabling, with a pred_transformation,
    since in that case, the new predicate *is* derived from a single
    existing predicate.

    Add a mechanism for recording the predicates created by the distance
    granularity transformation, which previously was recorded in the predicate
    name, but not in the pred_origin.

    Deleted the dnf predicate transform, since it hasn't been used
    since the Aditi backend was deleted in 2006.

    Include the pred_or_func distinction, and the original user arity,
    in the pred_origin of user defined predicates and functions.

    Include in most other pred transformations the parameters that are
    now recorded in the corresponding transform_name used in pred_name.m,
    with the exception of the pred_or_func distinction, since it is now
    available by following the chain of transforms to the base pred_origin,
    which should include that info.

    Use a type_ctor, not its components, in a pred origin.

    Shorten the too-long names of some function symbols.

compiler/distance_granularity.m:
    Record the transform done by this module.

    Use state variables where appropriate.

    Use more consistent variable names.

    Eliminate excessive indentation in the example transformation
    in the module introduction comment.

compiler/loop_inv.m:
    Fix a bug. The sequence number field of the transform_name
    was being filled with something other than a sequence number,
    which could be the same for two transformations. (Or at least,
    I have seen no convincing argument for why they couldn't be.
    If such an argument existed, the sequence number field would
    not be needed, so the old code would still have been wrong,
    just for a different reason :-)

    Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
    Add the per-context counter needed by the new code in loop_inv.m.

compiler/pd_info.m:
    The predicate that defines a new predicate always specifies
    the transform_name as tn_deforestation, so don't leave it up
    to the caller to specify the pred_origin of the new predicate;
    instead, construct it here as a deforestation transform of the
    base predicate. That is the origin argument that our one caller
    always specified anyway.

compiler/purity.m:
    Use a full switch over pred_origins, not a partial one,
    to make a decision.

    set up the counter for the new var table to match the variables in it.

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Define the var_name_source type.

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

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

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

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

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

    Fix some comments.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

5750c35e64 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.

b80ba7095a Move to a unified scheme for pred name transforms.
compiler/pred_name.m:
    Put all the information needed to create a name for a transformed
    predicate or function into one data structure. This centralizes
    knowledge about the format of transformed names here, for the
    compiler components that use pred_name.m to construct new pred names.
    (Making all the *other* compiler components that now construct
    new pred names switch to use pred_names.m is future work.)

    This central data structure, transform_name, contains information
    that used to supplies using separate arguments, such as the initial
    prefix identifying the program transformation that creates the name,
    and an indication whether it is being applied to a predicate or a function.
    In cases where callers used to post-process the sym_name we return
    to add a procedure # as a suffix (to go after the suffix that pred_name.m
    adds to the name :-(), make such shenanigans unnecessary by making
    the proc_id number part of the transform_name.

    Replace the code that constructs lists of things (integers and
    substitutions for type vars) with shorter code, whose functionality
    is underdtandable at a glance. It is slower, but the construction
    of predicate names is rare it for that not to matter.

cc9912faa8 Don't import anything in packages.
Packages are modules whose only job is to serve as a container for submodules.
Modules like top_level.m, hlds.m, parse_tree.m and ll_backend.m are packages
in this (informal) sense.

Besides the include_module declarations for their submodules, most of the
packages in the compiler used to import some modules, mostly other packages
whose component modules their submodules may need. For example, ll_backend.m
used to import parse_tree.m. This meant that modules in the ll_backend package
did not have to import parse_tree.m before importing modules in the parse_tree
package.

However, this had a price. When we add a new module to the parse_tree package,
parse_tree.int would change, and this would require the recompilation of ALL
the modules in the ll_backend package, even the ones that did NOT import ANY
of the modules in the parse_tree package.

This happened even at one remove. Pretty much all modules in every one
of the backend have to import one or more modules in the hlds package,
and they therefore have import hlds.m. Since hlds.m imported transform_hlds.m,
any addition of a new middle pass to the transform_hlds package required
the recompilation of all backend modules, even in the usual case of the two
having nothing to do with each other.

This diff removes all import_module declarations from the packages,
and replaces them with import_module declarations in the modules that need
them. This includes only a SUBSET of their child modules and of the non-child
modules that import them.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Add a convenience predicate.

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

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

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

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

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

    In a few cases, conform to other changes above.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Remove the stuff now in the three new modules.

compiler/prog_type_subst.m:

338b5cb98e Fix some bugs with constrained polymorphic modes.
1. An inst variable from the head of the clause could be bound in the body.
The mode error in the call `P(X)' was not detected because the inst
variable I could be bound to ground.

	:- pred p(pred(T), T).
	:- mode p(pred(in(I =< ground)) is det, in) is det.

	p(P, X) :- P(X).

2. In David Overton's thesis, a get_subst function produces an inst
substitution from the callee's initial insts to the arguments' initial
insts, and the substitution is applied to all insts from the callee.
In the implementation we actually build the substitution while matching
the arguments' insts with the callee's insts, but we lost some precision
by not applying the incremental substitutions built as we match a list
of insts.

3. We rename apart the callee's inst variables from our own, but did not
keep the merged inst varset.  When a renamed inst variable appears in a
mode error it would be printed without its original name.
(could this avert more serious problems?)

4. inst_merge_3 was missing a case.

Some of these bugs may not be apparent due to the hack in
inst_matches_final_3 which allows a ground inst to match any bound inst.
A similar hack exists in inst_matches_binding_3.

compiler/inst_util.m:
	Handle in inst_merge_3 the case
	    InstA \= constrained_inst_var(_, _),
	    InstB = constrained_inst_var(_, _).

	Move InstA = not_reached case to inst_merge_2 to maintain
	inst_merge(not_reached, InstB @ constrained_inst_var(_, _)) = InstB

compiler/inst_match.m:
	Improve precision of inst var substitution computed in
	handle_inst_var_subs_2, following dmo's thesis.

compiler/mode_util.m:
compiler/modecheck_call.m:
	Keep the merged inst varsets after renaming.

compiler/mode_info.m:
	Add "head inst vars" in mode_info structure.

compiler/modecheck_util.m:
	Add get_constrained_inst_vars to extract constrained inst vars from a
	list of mode.

	Make modecheck_var_has_inst_list_* fail if the computed substitution
	would change the constraints of any head inst variables.

compiler/modes.m:
	Initialise mode_info with head inst variables.

compiler/pd_info.m:
compiler/pd_util.m:
	Conform to change in mode_info_init (not specifically tested).

compiler/prog_mode.m:
	Export inst_apply_substitution.

	Make rename_apart_inst_vars return the merged inst varset.

	Fix comments.

1e184398f0 Fix the has_parallel_conj field of generated procedures (Mantis bug 351).
The event sequence that lead to the compiler abort in Mantis 351 was:

1 With -O5 --intermod-opt, the loop invariant optimization finds a loop
  invariant in the pos_mul_karatsuba predicate in library/integer.m.

2 To create the inner predicate (the one that has the already-computed
  invariant passed to it), it tries to make a copy of the original predicate,
  but sets the has_parallel_conj field of the new proc's proc_info to the
  default value, which is has_no_parallel_conj.

3 A later compiler pass has the task of (in par grades) adding synchronization
  to parallel conjunctions, and (in non-par grades) converting the parallel
  conjunctions to sequential. However, due to the has_no_parallel_conj flag
  in the proc_info, it thinks it has no work to do. It therefore leaves the
  parallel conjunction intact.

4 The pre-code-generation simplification pass traverses the entire body of
  the predicate, and, seeing a parallel conjunction, puts a has_parallel_conj
  flag on the proc_info.

5 generate_proc_code sees this flag, but since the target grade is not
  parallel, it ignores the flag. Since debugging is not enabled either,
  it does NOT create a ContainingGoalMap. (The debugger and parallel
  conjunctions are the two things that need this map.)

6 When trying to create the id for the parallel conjunction, par_conj_gen.m
  looks for the ContainingGoalMap. Not finding it, it aborts.

The problem arises in step 2, and the main part of the bug fix is to step 2.
However, it adds a sanity check to step 5 as well, to make any such problems
easier to diagnose in the future.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    Require callers of proc_info_create and similar predicates to specify
    whether the new procedure has parallel conjunctions or not.

    Arrange the code of these predicates so that all the fields in the
    proc_info are filled in with variables whose names say what they stand
    for. Previously, many of the fields were just "no" or "[]", not saying
    what `maybe' type or list there was no information for.

    Put these variables in the same order as the fields.

    Add a XXX about the possibility of similar bugs.

compiler/loop_inv.m:
    When creating the inner procedure (and its containing predicate),
    pass the has_parallel_conj flag of the original predicate. This is
    the actual bug fix.

compiler/par_conj_gen.m:
    Improve some comments.

compiler/parallel_to_plain_conj.m:
    Set a procedure's flag to has_no_parallel_conj right after eliminating

Estimated hours taken: 12
Branches: main

Switch from using set(prog_var), which is represented using set_ordlist,
to set_of_progvar, which is represented using tree_bitset, for most sets
of variables in the compiler, including the nonlocals sets in goal_infos.

This diff yields about a 5% speedup when compiling the training_cars_full.m
stress test, but also about a 1% slowdown on tools/speedtest. Both of these
are with the current default state in which tree_bitset is compiled with
a whole bunch of sanity checks. If these are disabled, we get roughly a 1%
speedup on tools/speedtest. I intend to disable those sanity checks after
a shakedown period of a week or two in which the updated version of the
compiler is installed on our platforms.

Eliminate dependencies between the processing of different predicates or

so that they can be processed in parallel.

The effect of this diff on performance is negligible (a 0.1% speedup,
within the noise limit).

	and specialize them to their tasks. For tasks that do not update
	the module_info, the I/O state or anything else while updating
	a proc_info, allow the procedures of the module to be processed
	in parallel.

	Use a systematic naming scheme for the tasks. Use pred_proc_ids

	unnecessary variations in whether the predicates invoked by the tasks
	need the pred_id, the proc_id or both.

ffad388738 Fix problems with the ssdebug transformation at higher optimisation levels
Branches: main, 10.04

Fix problems with the ssdebug transformation at higher optimisation levels
and with less conventional code.

compiler/ssdebug.m:
        Transform code without relying on a determinism pass afterwards.

        Handle procedures with inferred determinisms tighter than declared
        determinisms, i.e. inferred semidet but declared cc_nondet, and
        inferred cc_multi but declared cc_nondet.  We transform the procedure
        according to the inferred determinism, but in those two cases we have
        to introduce promise_equivalent_solutions scopes.

        Do not treat input arguments with more precise final insts,
        i.e. ground >> bound(...), as if they were output arguments.

        Handle procedures with existentially typed head variables.  The
        corresponding type_info argument is an output variable, which gets
        renamed away to a temporary variable, and is only assigned just before
        leaving the procedure.  At the point where we build up the variable
        list for the exit port, we must use the temporary variable.

        Factor out common code in the four process_proc* predicates.

compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
        Remove an unnecessary determinism pass.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
        Make define_new_pred take a sym_name as the name of the predicate to
        define.  Thus the new predicate does not have to have the current
        module as the module qualifier.

compiler/loop_inv.m:
        Auxiliary predicates generated from procedures with the same name from
        different modules could clash (in target code) if they had the same
        line number.  Retain the module qualifier from the original predicate
        to distinguish between them.

        However, that is still not enough to distinguish special predicates.
        Use the predicate id in place of a counter to distinguish between
        special predicates for different types.  This should only affect
        ssdebug grades; special predicates normally wouldn't contain anything
        to hoist.

4ebe3d0d7e Stop storing globals in the I/O state, and divide mercury_compile.m
Estimated hours taken: 60
Branches: main

Stop storing globals in the I/O state, and divide mercury_compile.m
into smaller, more cohesive modules. (This diff started out as doing
only the latter, but it became clear that this was effectively impossible
without the former, and the former ended up accounting for the bulk of the
changes.)

Taking the globals out of the I/O state required figuring out how globals
data flowed between pieces of code that were often widely separated.
Such flows were invisible when globals could be hidden in the I/O state,
but now they are visible, because the affected code now passes around
globals structures explicitly.

In some cases, the old flow looked buggy, as when one job invoked by
mmc --make could affect the globals value of its parent or the globals value
passed to the next job. I tried to fix such problems when I saw them. I am
not 100% sure I succeeded in every case (I may have replaced old bugs with
new ones), but at least now the flow is out in the open, and any bugs
should be much easier to track down and fix.

In most cases, changes the globals after the initial setup are intended to be
in effect only during the invocation of a few calls. This used to be done
by remembering the initial values of the to-be-changed options, changing their
values in the globals in the I/O state, making the calls, and restoring the old
values of the options. We now simply create a new version of the globals
structure, pass it to the calls to be affected, and then discard it.

In two cases, when discovering reasons why (1) smart recompilation should
not be done or (2) item version numbers should not be generated, the record
of the discovery needs to survive this discarding. This is why in those cases,
we record the discovery by setting a mutable attached to the I/O state.
We use pure code (with I/O states) both to read and to write the mutables,
so this is no worse semantically than storing the information in the globals
structure inside the I/O state. (Also, we were already using such a mutable
for recording whether -E could add more information.)

In many modules, the globals information had to be threaded through
several predicates in the module. In some places, this was made more
difficult by predicates being defined by many clauses. In those cases,
this diff converts those predicates to using explicit disjunctions.

compiler/globals.m:
	Stop storing the globals structure in the I/O state, and remove
	the predicates that accessed it there.

	Move a mutable and its access predicate here from handle_options.m,
	since here is when the mutables treated the same way are.

	In a couple of cases, the value of an option is available in a mutable
	for speed of access from inside performance-critical code. Set the
	values of those mutables from the option when the processing of option
	values is finished, not when it is starting, since otherwise the copies
	of each option could end up inconsistent.

	Validate the reuse strategy option here, since doing it during ctgc
	analysis (a) is too late, and (b) would require an update to the
	globals to be done at an otherwise inconvenient place in the code.
	Put the reuse strategy into the globals structure.

	Two fields in the globals structure were unused. One
	(have_printed_usage) was made redundant when the one predicate
	that used it itself became unused; the other (source_file_map)
	was effectively replaced by a mutable some time ago. Delete
	these fields from the globals.

	Give the fields of the globals structure a distinguishing prefix.

	Put the type declarations, predicate declarations and predicate
	definitions in a consistent order.

compiler/source_file_map.m:
	Record this module's results only in the mutable (it serves as a
	cache), not in globals structure. Use explicitly passed globals
	structure for other purposes.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Rename handle_options as handle_given_options, since it does not
	process THE options to the program, but the options it is given,
	and even during the processing of a single module, it can be invoked
	up the three times in a row, each time being given different options.
	(It was up to four times in a row before this diff.)

	Make handle_given_options explicitly return the globals structure it
	creates. Since it does not take an old global structure as input
	and globals are not stored in the I/O state, it is now clear that
	the globals structure it returns is affected only by the default values
	of the options and the options it processes. Before this diff,
	in the presence of errors in the options, handle_options *could*
	return (implicitly, in the I/O state) the globals structure that
	happened to be in the I/O state when it was invoked.

	Provide a separate predicate for generating a dummy globals based only
	on the default values of options. This allows by mercury_compile.m
	to stop abusing a more general-purpose predicate from handle_options.m,
	which we no longer export.

	Remove the mutable and access predicate moved to globals.m.

compiler/options.m:
	Document the fact that two options, smart_recompilation and
	generate_item_version_numbers, should not be used without seeing
	whether the functionalities they call for have been disabled.

compiler/mercury_compile_front_end.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_mlds_back_end.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_erl_back_end.m:
	New modules carved out of the old mercury_compile.m. They each cover
	exactly the areas suggested by their names.

	Each of the modules is more cohesive than the old mercury_compile.m.
	Their code is also arranged in a more logical order, with predicates
	representing compiler passes being defined in the order of their
	invocation.

	Some of these modules export predicates for use by their siblings,
	showing the dependencies between the groups of passes.

compiler/top_level.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Add the new modules.

compiler/mark_static_terms.m:
	Move this module from the ml_backend package to the hlds package,
	since (a) it does not depend on the MLDS in any way, and (b) it is
	also needed by a compiler pass (loop invariants) in the middle passes.

compiler/hlds.m:
compiler/ml_backend.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Reflect mark_static_terms.m's change of package.

compiler/passes_aux.m:
	Move the predicates for dumping out the hLDS here from
	mercury_compile.m, since the new modules also need them.

	Look up globals in the HLDS, not the I/O state.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Store the prefix (common part) of HLDS dump file names in the HLDS
	itself, so that the code moved to passes_aux.m can figure out the
	file name for a HLDS dump without doing system calls.

	Give the field names of some structures prefixes to avoid ambiguity.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Remove the code moved to the other modules. This module now looks
	after only option handling (such as deciding whether to generate .int3
	files, .int files, .opt files etc), and the compilation passes
	up to and including the creation of the first version of the HLDS.
	Everything after that is subcontracted to the new modules.

	Simplify and make explicit the flow of globals information.
	When invoking predicates that could disable smart recompilation,
	check whether they have done so, and if yes, update the globals
	accordingly.

	When compiling via gcc, we need to link into the executable
	the object files of any separate C files we generate for C code
	foreign_procs, which we cannot translate into gcc's internal
	structures without becoming a C compiler as well as a Mercury compiler.
	Instead of adding such files to the accumulating option for extra
	object files in the globals structure, we return their names using
	the already existing mechanism we have always used to link the object
	files of fact tables into the executable.

	Give several predicates more descriptive names. Put predicates
	in a more logical order.

compiler/make.m:
compiler/make.dependencies.m:
compiler/make.module_target.m:
compiler/make.module_dep_file.m:
compiler/make.program_target.m:
compiler/make.util.m:
	Require callers to supply globals structures explicitly, not via the
	I/O state. Afterward pass them around explicitly, passing modified
	versions to mercury_compile.m when invoking it with module- and/or
	task-specific options.

	Due the extensive use of partial application for higher order code
	in these modules, passing around the globals structures explicitly
	is quite tricky here. There may be cases where a predicate uses
	an old globals structure it got from a closure instead of the updated
	module- and/or task-specific globals it should be using, or vice versa.
	However, it is just as likely that, this diff fixes old problems
	by preventing the implicit flow of updated-only-for-one-invocation
	globals structures back to the original invoking context.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

	Delete two unused access predicates.

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

	Convert some predicates to single clauses.

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

	Convert some predicates to single clauses.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

	Note a possible chance for a speedup.

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

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

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

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

	Make some predicate names better reflect what the predicate does.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

	Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types.

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

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

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

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

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

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

	Give some predicates better names.

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

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

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

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

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

	Fix some misleading variable names.

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

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

	Rationalize the argument order of some access predicates.

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

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

	Give better names to some predicates.

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

compiler/ll_backend.m:
	Include the new module.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

	Give some variables better names.

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

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

	Move some utility predicates to switch_util.

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

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

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

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

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

	Factor out some code to make all this possible.

	Give better names to some predicates.

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

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

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

Add a new compiler option. --inform-ite-instead-of-switch. If this is enabled,

it thinks should be converted to switches for the sake of program reliability.

Estimated hours taken: 5
Branches: main

Fix the failure of the invalid/modes_erroneous test case, whose symptom was
an error message about a "mode error in unification of `X' and `X'".
The root cause of the problem was that the renaming of head variables
computed by headvar_names.m was being applied too early, during typechecking.
The fix is to apply it after the frontend (all the passes that can generate
error messages).

To avoid slowdowns from larger pred_infos, this diff also moves the least
frequently used fields of pred_infos to a subterm. (Proc_infos already had
a subterm.) This leads to an almost 3% speedup.

compiler/headvar_names.m:
	Store the renaming instead of applying it.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Apply the renaming in invocations after the front end, since doing so
	may allow some excess assignments to be eliminated.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add fields to pred_infos and proc_infos for the renaming.

	Move the least frequently used fields of pred_infos into a
	pred_sub_info.

	Some fields of pred_infos were being accessed using predicates
	that did not follow our naming conventions, and some were accessed
	using field access functions that are now inappropriate; fix them all.

	Require the caller to provide the renaming when creating new pred_infos
	and proc_infos. This is to force the compiler components that do this
	to propagate the renaming fields of the original predicates and/or
	procedures to their modified versions.

	Convert that some old code that used if-then-elses to use switches
	instead.

b56885be93 Fix a bug that caused bootchecks with --optimize-constructor-last-call to fail.
Estimated hours taken: 12
Branches: main

Fix a bug that caused bootchecks with --optimize-constructor-last-call to fail.

The problem was not in lco.m, but in follow_code.m. In some cases,
(specifically, the LCMC version of insert_2 in sparse_bitset.m),
follow_code.m moved an impure goal (store_at_ref) into the arms of an
if-then-else without marking those arms, or the if-then-else, as impure.
The next pass, simplify, then deleted the entire if-then-else, since it
had no outputs. (The store_at_ref that originally appeared after the
if-then-else was the only consumer of its only output.)

The fix is to get follow_code.m to make branched control structures such as
if-then-elses, as well as their arms, semipure or impure if a goal being moved
into them is semipure or impure, or if they came from an semipure or impure
conjunction.

Improve the optimization of the LCMC version of sparse_bitset.insert_2, which
had a foreign_proc invocation of bits_per_int in it: replace such invocations
with a unification of the bits_per_int constant if not cross compiling.

Add a new option, --optimize-constructor-last-call-null. When set, LCMC will
assign NULLs to the fields not yet filled in, to avoid any junk happens to be
there from being followed by the garbage collector's mark phase.

This diff also makes several other changes that helped me to track down
the bug above.

compiler/follow_code.m:
	Make the fix described above.

	Delete all the provisions for --prev-code; it won't be implemented.

	Don't export a predicate that is not now used anywhere else.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Make the optimization described above.

compiler/lco.m:
	Make sure that the LCMC specialized procedure is a predicate, not a
	function: having a function with the mode LCMC_insert_2(in, in) = in
	looks wrong.

	To avoid name collisions when a function and a predicate with the same
	name and arity have LCMC applied to them, include the predicate vs
	function status of the original procedure included in the name of the
	new procedure.

	Update the sym_name of calls to LCMC variants, not just the pred_id,
	because without that, the HLDS dump looks misleading.

compiler/pred_table.m:
	Don't have optimizations like LCMC insert new predicates at the front
	of the list of predicates. Maintain the list of predicates in the
	module as a two part list, to allow efficient addition of new pred_ids
	at the (logical) end without using O(N^2) algorithms. Having predicates
	in chronological order makes it easier to look at HLDS dumps and
	.c files.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Make module_info_predids return a module_info that is physically
	updated though logically unchanged.

compiler/options.m:
	Add --optimize-constructor-last-call-null.

	Make the options --dump-hlds-pred-id, --debug-opt-pred-id and
	--debug-opt-pred-name into accumulating options, to allow the user
	to specify more than one predicate to be dumped (e.g. insert_2 and
	its LCMC variant).

	Delete --prev-code.

doc/user_guide.texi:
	Document the changes in options.m.

compiler/code_info.m:
	Record the value of --optimize-constructor-last-call-null in the
	code_info, to avoid lookup at every cell construction.

compiler/unify_gen.m:
compiler/var_locn.m:
	When deciding whether a cell can be static or not, make sure that
	we never make static a cell that has some fields initialized with
	dummy zeros, to be filled in for real later.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	For goals that are semipure or impure, note this fact. This info was
	lost when I changed the representation of impurity from markers to a
	field.

mdbcomp/prim_data.m:
	Rename some ambiguous function symbols.

compiler/intermod.m:
compiler/trans_opt.m:
	Rename the main predicates (and some function symbols) of these modules
	to avoid ambiguity and to make them more expressive.

compiler/llds.m:
	Don't print line numbers for foreign_code fragments if the user has
	specified --no-line-numbers.

compiler/make.dependencies.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
compiler/recompilation.usage.m:
	Don't use io.write to write out information to files we may need to
	parse again, because this is vulnerable to changes to the names of
	function symbols (e.g. the one to mdbcomp/prim_data.m).

	The compiler still contains some uses of io.write, but they are
	for debugging. I added an item to the todo list of the one exception,
	ilasm.m.

compiler/recompilation.m:
	Rename a misleading function symbol name.

compiler/parse_tree.m:
	Don't import recompilation.m here. It is not needed (all the components
	of parse_tree that need recompilation.m already import it themselves),
	and deleting the import avoids recompiling almost everything when
	recompilation.m changes.

compiler/*.m:

ba93a52fe7 This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair
Estimated hours taken: 10
Branches: main

This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair
to being discriminated union types with their own function symbol. This
was motivated by an error message (one of many, but the one that broke
the camel's back) about "-" being used in an ambiguous manner. It will
reduce the number of such messages in the future, and will make compiler
data structures easier to inspect in the debugger.

The most important type changed by far is hlds_goal, whose function symbol
is now "hlds_goal". Second and third in importance are llds.instruction
(function symbol "llds_instr") and prog_item.m's item_and_context (function
symbol "item_and_context"). There are some others as well.

In several places, I rearranged predicates to factor the deconstruction of
goals into hlds_goal_expr and hlds_goal_into out of each clause into a single
point. In many places, I changed variable names that used "Goal" to refer
to just hlds_goal_exprs to use "GoalExpr" instead. I also changed variable
names that used "Item" to refer to item_and_contexts to use "ItemAndContext"
instead. This should make reading such code less confusing.

I renamed some function symbols and predicates to avoid ambiguities.

I only made one algorithmic change (at least intentionally).
In assertion.m, comparing two goals for equality now ignores goal_infos
for all kinds of goals, whereas previously it ignored them for most kinds
of goals, but for shorthand goals it was insisting on them being equal.
This seemed to me to be a bug. Pete, can you confirm this?

5eee81204e A big step towards cleaning up the way we handle errors.
Estimated hours taken: 28
Branches: main

A big step towards cleaning up the way we handle errors. The main changes are

- the provision, in error_util.m, of a mechanism for completely specifying
  everything to do with a single error in one data structure,

- the conversion of typecheck_errors.m from using io.write_string to
  using this new capability,

- the conversion of mode_errors.m and det_report.m from using
  write_error_pieces to using this new capability, and

- consistently using the quoting style `symname'/N instead of `symname/N'
  in error_util and hlds_error_util (previously, error_util used the former
  but hlds_error_util used the latter).

This diff sets up later diffs which will collect all error specifications
in a central place and print them all at once, in order.

compiler/error_util.m:
	The new type error_spec, which completely specifies an error.
	An error_spec may have multiple components with different contexts
	and may have parts which are printed only under certain conditions,
	e.g. a given option being set. Each error_spec has a severity
	and also records which phase found the error.

	The new predicate write_error_spec takes care of updates of the exit
	status for errors and (if --halt-at-warn is set) for warnings. It also
	takes care of setting the flag that calls for the reminder about -E
	at the end.

	This diff also makes it simpler to use the ability to print arbitrary
	output. It adds the ability to include integers in messages directly,
	and the ability to create blank lines. It renames some function symbols
	to avoid ambiguities.

	Move a predicate that only used by typecheck_errors.m to that file.

compiler/hlds_error_util.m:
	Switch to the `symname'/N quoting style for describing predicates and
	procedures.

compiler/prog_util.m:
	Switch to the `symname'/N quoting style for describing
	sym_name_and_arity.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Provide a predicate to increment the number of errors not by one,
	but by the number of errors printed by write_error_spec.

	Fix some documentation rot.

compiler/typecheck_errors.m:
	Use write_error_spec instead of io.write_strings to print error
	messages. In several cases, improve the formatting of the messages
	printed.

	Mark a number of places where we don't (yet) update the number of
	errors in the module_info correctly.

	Rename the checkpoint predicate to avoid potential ambiguity with
	similar predicates in e.g. mode_info.

compiler/typecheck_info.m:
	Group the code for writing stuff out together in one bunch. For each
	such predicate, create another that returns a list of format components
	instead of doing I/O directly.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Move the code for writing inference messages here from
	typecheck_errors.m, since these messages aren't errors.

compiler/mode_errors.m:
compiler/det_report.m:
	Use write_error_spec instead of write_error_pieces. In the case of
	mode_errors.m, this means we now get correct the set of circumstances
	in which we set the flag that calls for the reminder about -E.

compiler/add_pragma.m:
compiler/add_type.m:
	Convert some code that used to use write_error_pieces to print error
	messages to use write_error_spec instead.

compiler/assertion.m:
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	Assertion.m used to contain some code to check for assertions in the
	interface that mention predicates that are not exported. Move most
	of this code to post_typecheck.m (which is where this code used to be
	called from). One small part, which is a test for a particular property
	of import_statuses, is moved to hlds_pred.m to be with all the other
	similar tests of import_statuses.

compiler/prog_util.m:
	Change unqualify_name from a predicate to a function.

compiler/pred_table.m:
compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Avoid some ambiguities by adding a suffix to the names of some
