da3e2e80d3 Make invoked_by_mmc_make part of the op_mode.
compiler/op_mode.m:
    Add a field that specifies whether the compiler was invoked by
    "mmc --make" to the opm_top_args top-level op_mode. This is the
    class of op_modes for which we need that info.

    Fill in this new field from the value of the --invoked-by-mmc-make
    option.

compiler/options.m:
    Add an "only_opmode_" prefix to the internal name of the
    --invoked-by-mmc-make option. Move this option next to the --make option.

    Improve the wording of some options' usage messages.

doc/user_guide.texi:
    Make the same changes in wording here as well.

307b1dc148 Split up error_util.m into five modules.
compiler/error_spec.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that defines
    the error_spec type, and some functions that can help construct pieces
    of error_specs. Most modules of the compiler that deal with errors
    will need to import only this part of the old error_util.m.

    This change also renames the format_component type to format_piece,
    which matches our long-standing naming convention for variables containing
    (lists of) values of this type.

compiler/write_error_spec.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that
    writes out error specs, and converts them to strings.

    This diff marks as obsolete the versions of predicates that
    write out error specs to the current output stream, without
    *explicitly* specifying the intended stream.

compiler/error_sort.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that
    sorts lists of error specs and error msgs.

compiler/error_type_util.m:
    This new module contains the part of the old error_util.m that
    convert types to format_pieces that generate readable output.

compiler/parse_tree.m:
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
    Include and document the new modules.

compiler/error_util.m:
    The code remaining in the original error_util.m consists of
    general utility predicates and functions that don't fit into
    any of the modules above.

    Delete an unneeded pair of I/O states from the argument list
    of a predicate.

compiler/file_util.m:
    Move the unable_to_open_file predicate here from error_util.m,
    since it belongs here. Mark another predicate that writes
    to the current output stream as obsolete.

compiler/hlds_error_util.m:
    Mark two predicates that wrote out error_spec to the current output
    stream as obsolete, and add versions that take an explicit output stream.

compiler/Mercury.options:
    Compile the modules that call the newly obsoleted predicates
    with --no-warn-obsolete, for the time being.

compiler/*.m:
    Conform to the changes above, mostly by updating import_module
    declarations, and renaming format_component to format_piece.

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.

compiler/*.m:
library/*.m:
    Conform to the changes above.

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.

    Conform to the changes above. Mostly this means

    - 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).

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.

    Move the computation of a flag out of loops. The flag said whether
    to treat check_termination pragmas as implying that termination
    will actually be checked on this compiler invocation.

    Delete the code that computation, as it has been moved to term_util.m.

    Move the code that did that here. Make it return a value of a bespoke type

    Move a comment block before *both* the predicates it is about.

compiler/op_mode.m:
    Give the op_modes that call for building .opt and .trans_opt files
    more meaningful and less misleading names, by deleting the "int"
    part of their names. The presence of that part made the comment

    intermod_analysis.m contains the parts of the old intermod.m that
    deal with collecting program analysis results in the forms of
    compiler-generated pragmas, and writing them out. These pragmas make up
    the second half of .opt files, and the entirety of .trans_opt files.

ac70f6d36b Parse and check coerce expressions.
This change implements parsing, typechecking, and modechecking of
"coerce" expressions from my subtypes proposal, i.e. coerce(Term).
Backends currently will abort if asked to generate code for coercions,
as subtypes do not yet share data representations with their base types,
so most coercions would lead to crashes at runtime anyway.

    Add new type of generic_call to represent coerce expressions.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:

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

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

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

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

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

    Make the changes described above.

    In some places, fix bad programming style.

ab8c2771f7 Move towards generating .opt/.trans_opt files via items.
compiler/prog_item.m:
    Add types for representing .opt and .trans_opt files that specify
    exactly what kinds of items may appear in them.

    Provide a mechanism for representing just the kinds of pragmas
    that we may want to put into .opt files to represent a predicate marker.

    To make the above possible, generalize the item_pragma_info type.

    Do not store the "maybe attributes" field in all pragmas; store it
    in just the one pragma for which it had pragma-specific code (which code
    is dubious anyway). Its only use is to suppress error messages about
    incorrect pragmas if that pragma was created by the compiler, on the
    theory that the user cannot do anything about any such error messages.
    However, if such errors are never reported to anyone, then they won't
    be fixed. I think it is better to allow such problems to be discovered,
    even if they cause a bit of annoyance to the discoverer. The default
    content of the field as set by the parser, item_origin_user, can be
    misleading anway; it is correct when the pragma is read in from a .m file
    or from a .int* file, but it is wrong when read in from a .*opt file,
    since the contents of those are decided by the compiler.

    Store a varset and tvarset in structure sharing and reuse pragmas,
    since without this, one cannot print them out properly.

compiler/intermod.m:
    Change the predicates that write out .opt and .trans_opt files
    to return as large a fraction of the parse trees of those files
    as possible, as a step towards generating those files not directly,
    but by building and then writing out those parse trees. For now,
    we cannot do this fully for .opt files, because for a few item kinds,
    it is far from obvious how to represent as a item what we write out.

    Leave the opening and closing of the file streams for writing out
    .opt and .trans_opt files to our caller, because for .opt files,
    this allows us to avoid having to open the file *twice*.

    Put the output of result-of-analysis pragmas into a standard order.

    Factor out as common code the process for deciding what should go into
    .opt files.

    Give a field of the intermod_info structure a more precise name.

compiler/mercury_compile_front_end.m:
    Hold the stream of the .opt file open between the two different pieces
    of code that write out the two different parts of .opt files.

    If --experiment5 is set, write out the parse tree of the .opt file
    to the .optx file, to enable comparison with the .opt file.

compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
    If --experiment5 is set, write out the parse tree of the .trans_opt file
    to the .trans_optx file, to enable comparison with the .trans_opt file.

    Reset a memo table for structure_{sharing,reuse}.analysis.

compiler/structure_reuse.analysis.m:
compiler/structure_sharing.analysis.m:
    Don't take an I/O state pair as arguments, since we needed them *only*

    Give the main predicates more descriptive names.

compiler/trailing_analysis.m:
    Give the main predicate a more descriptive names.

compiler/closure_analysis.m:
    Don't take an I/O state pair as arguments, since we needed them *only*
    for progress messages.

    Don't ignore an error, since one of the other changes in this diff
    could have fixed its cause.

    Export utility functions needed by code added by this diff.

    Tighten the inst of an output argument for use by intermod.m.

    Bring programming style up to date.

fb97df69ed Make "compute type representations" a separate pass.
The ultimate purpose of this diff is to prepare for future improvements
in type representations, allowing values of some data types to be represented
more compactly than up to now.

The main way this diff does that is by creating a separate pass for deciding
how values of each type should be represented. We have traditionally decided
data representations for each type as its type definition was processed
during the make_hlds pass, but these decisions were always tentative,
and could be overridden later, e.g. when we processed foreign_type or
foreign_enum pragmas for the type. This dispersed decision making algorithm
is hard to understand, and therefore to change.

This diff centralizes decisions about type representations in a separate
pass that does nothing else. It leaves the algorithm distributed among
several files (du_type_layout.m, make_tags.m, and add_foreign_enum.m) for now,
to make reviewing this diff easier, but soon after it is committed I intend
to move all the relevant code to du_type_layout.m, to centralize the decision
code in "space" as well as in time.

For the reason why this pass runs before any of the semantic analysis
passes, instead of after all of them as I originally intended and as we
discussed on m-dev in late october 2017, see the big comment at the start of
du_type_layout.m.

As per another part of that same discussion on m-dev, this diff
makes a start on implementing a new type of item, the type_repn item,
which is intended *only* to be used in compiler-generated interface files,
*not* in source files. It is only a start because we can use these items
only *after* the creation of a separate type representation decision pass,
and this diff is already very big. The code for making the compiler understand
these items will be added later. The code for generating them will be added
later still, once the code for understanding them has been installed on
all our systems.

Since I was going to be working on the affected code anyway, this diff
also carries out two other decisions that came out of that discussion:

- the deletion of the ability to reserve a tag in a type for HAL,
  either via a compiler option or via a pragma, and

- the deletion of the ability to represent a functor using the address
  of a statically allocated object (which we haven't used and won't use,
  because it slows down accesses to *all the other functors* of the type).

compiler/mercury_compile_front_end.m:
    Invoke the new pass for making decisions about type representations
    after the make_hlds pass. (We used to do only the final part of it then.)

    Fix a bad dump stage name.

    Add an extra check for what it means for a module to be error free.

    Make a sub-switch explicit.

compiler/hlds.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
    Move the modules that implement the new pass from the make_hlds package
    to the hlds package, to give the compiler's top level access to them.

    Make the same move for the modules that the new pass's modules need.
    Since they are now part of hlds, they cannot reach into make_hlds,
    and I think this is a cleaner solution than forwarding predicates.

    Delete some forwarding predicates that are no longer needed.

    Document the updated location of the moved modules.

    Add an XXX to note a place where the documentation has not been
    updated in the past.

compiler/du_type_layout.m:
    Add code to implement the new pass.

    Keep the algorithm for deciding type representations as close
    to the previously used algorithm as possible, since this diff
    is already big enough. (The previous algorithm was scattered across
    add_type.m, add_foreign_enum.m, and make_hlds_passes.m.)

    Simplifications and optimizations will come later, after this module
    is merged with make_tags.m and with (at least) the foreign_enum half of
    add_foreign_enum.m.

compiler/make_tags.m:
    Keep the functionality of this module, which does both the first part
    of deciding type representations (tentatively assigning tags to functors,
    an assignment that may be overridden later), and the last part (packing
    multiple adjacent less-than-word-sized enum args into a single word,
    if possible.), but simplify it where possible, and note possibilities
    for further improvements.

compiler/add_foreign_enum.m:
    This module has two halves, one dealing with foreign_enum pragmas
    and one dealing with foreign_export_enum pragmas.

    Change the half that deals with foreign_enum pragmas to just build
    a data structure that du_type_layout.m will need to make its decisions,
    this structure being a map from type_ctors to the foreign enum
    specification applicable to the current target language. Include
    in this structure a component that add_foreign_enum.m itself can use
    to report better error messages for duplicate foreign_enum pragmas;
    this component records, for each type_ctor and language, the context
    of the previous foreign_enum pragma for that combo.

    Change the input for the half that deals with foreign_export_enum pragmas
    to reflect the fact that it is invoked by du_type_layout.m after all
    decisions about type representations have already been made.

compiler/add_special_pred.m:
    Move this module from the make_hlds package to the hlds package,
    since the code that adds special preds for type is now called from
    du_type_layout.m.

    Change the names of predicates to make clear whether they add
    only the declaration of a predicate, only its definition, or both.

    Don't try to pre-guess whether the implementation of a type's
    compare predicate will need an index predicate. Let the code
    that generates calls to the index predicate both declare and define
    the index predicate. This change removes the potential for
    inconsistencies between the two pieces of code.

compiler/add_pred.m:
    Move this module from the make_hlds package to the hlds package,
    since add_special_pred.m needs access to it.

compiler/add_type.m:
    When adding a type definition to the HLDS, don't try to decide
    its representation. Any such decision was tentative anyway, due
    to the possibility of e.g. the later processing of foreign_type
    or foreign_enum pragmas for the type. Likewise, don't try to
    create the special (unify, compare) predicates for the type.
    Leave both tasks to the du_type_layout pass.

    Likewise, don't try to pack the representation of types, or record
    no_tag types in the table of no_tag types, during the post-processing
    pass either; leave both of these to du_type_layout as well.
    Rename the predicate that post_processes type definitions to reflect
    the two tasks left for it to do.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Do not store width information about the arguments of those data
    constructors in the parse tree. That information is not computed
    until later; until then, it was always filled in with dummy values.
    (But see hlds_data.m below.)

    Use bespoke types to represent the presence or absence of user-specified
    unify and compare predicates.

    Change the representation of data constructors to use a single "maybe"
    type, not two lists, to denote the presence or absence of existentially
    typed arguments.

    Give the HLDS the ability to hold representation information about
    abstract types that in the future we will get from type_repn items
    in the defining modules' interface files.

    Delete the uses_reserved_tag type, since we never use reserved tags
    anymore.

compiler/prog_item.m:
    Add the new type_repn item type, which is not used yet.

    Delete the reserve_tag pragma.

    Fix an earlier mistake in the wording of a context message.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
    Put all the fields of hlds_du_type (the type definition variant dealing
    with discriminated union types) that deal with type representation
    issues in a single "maybe" field that is set to "no" before the
    type representation decision pass has been run.

    Add new type, constructor_repn, that stores the same information as the old
    constructor type (defined in prog_data.m), PLUS the information
    describing how terms with that data constructor are stored.

    Likewise, add a new type ctor_arg_rep, which likewise stores
    the widths of each constructor argument. When we implement
    argument reordering, we would store the offset of the arg as well.

    Since the parse tree representations of constructors and their arguments
    don't store representation information anymore, the cons_table they
    are stored in doesn't either. Make the lookup of representation information
    for a given constructor possible by adding a map to the new "maybe" field
    of hlds_du_type.

    Provide some utility predicates.

    Optimize some existing predicates.

    Rename some types to better reflect their meaning.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
    Provide a slot in the module_info for storing the information
    gathered by make_hlds.m that is needed by the new pass.

compiler/make_hlds_separate_items.m:
    When we see either a foreign_enum or a foreign_export_enum pragma,
    return values of a bespoke type for them (a type defined in
    hlds_module.m), instead of an item_pragma. This makes handling them
    considerably easier.

compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
    With the changes in this diff, adding a type to the HLDS won't
    decide its representation. Therefore delete the code that used
    to loop over foreign_export_enum pragmas; in the absence of
    the final type representation information, it won't work right.

    Record the information that the du_type_layout pass will need
    in the module_info.

compiler/add_pragma.m:
    Delete the code for passing on foreign_enum and foreign_export_enum
    pragmas to add_foreign_enum.m; they are now passed to add_foreign_enum.m
    by du_type_layout.m.

    Move a utility predicate to make_hlds_error.m, to allow add_foreign_enum.m
    to call it.

compiler/make_hlds_error.m:
    Add the utility predicate moved from add_pragma.m.

    Move the module from the make_hlds to the hlds package.

compiler/module_qual.m:
    Provide a mechanism for recording error messages about e.g. undefined
    types without recording that we found an undefined type. This sounds
    strange, but there is a valid use case.

    When a type definition declares a functor's argument to be of an
    undefined type, that error is usually fatal; we stop the compiler
    from proceeding even to typechecking, since the typechecker will
    probably abort with a map lookup failure. Most other references
    to undefined types are similarly fatal for the same reason. However,
    if e.g. a foreign_export_enum pragma refers to an undefined type,
    that error *won't* be visible to the typechecker, and therefore
    won't crash it. The error will still cause the compiler to exit
    without generating any target language code, but at least it will be
    able to run the typechecker and other semantic analysis passes.

    Without this change, the compiler will report only one error in
    the ee_invalid.m test case; with it, it reports *every* error
    in the test case expected output.

compiler/module_qual.qualify_items.m:
    Use the capability describe above for undefined types in
    foreign_export_enum pragmas.

compiler/module_qual.qual_errors.m:
    Delete a (somewhat incorrect) copy of a predicate in prog_item.m,
    to reduce code duplication.

compiler/prog_type.m:
    Add ways to represent abstract types whose representations are nevertheless
    known (from type_repn items in the defining modules' interface files)
    to be notag or dummy types. This will be needed to fix Mantis bug #441,
    a fix that will probably be one of the first later changes to build
    on this diff.

    Delete a type moved to type_util.m.

compiler/type_util.m:
    Provide extra versions of some predicates, with the difference between
    the old and the new versions being that one requires type representations
    to have been decided already, and the other one does not.

    Move the definition of the ctor_defn type here from prog_type.m,
    since prog_type.m itself does not use it, but type_util.m does.

    Give some predicates more meaningful names.

compiler/parse_type_defn.m:
    Simplify the code for parsing type definitions, to make it easier
    to reuse to parse type_repn items.

    Add a sanity check that requires existential constraints to have
    *some* existential variables to apply to.

    Allow "type_is_representable_in_n_bits" as a synonym for
    "type_is_abstract_enum", since in the future we want to be able to pack
    e.g. multiple int8s, not just multiple enums, into a single word.

    Generate more specific error messages for some classes of malformed input.

compiler/parse_type_repn.m:
    New module to parse type_repn items.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
    Make some predicates that operate on type constructors take
    the type constructors themselves as input arguments, not a whole type
    *using* that type constructor. Put the arguments of those predicates
    in a more standard order.

    Note that some predicates don't belong in this module.

compiler/special_pred.m:
    Make the code that decides whether a special predicate for a type
    constructor can be defined lazily avoid using type representation
    information. (Actually, we now make decisions about lazy vs eager
    definitions after type representation is available, but that was
    not so in an earlier version of this change, and the new code
    is more robust.)

compiler/unify_proc.m:
    When we decide to generate code for a compare predicate that needs
    the type to have an index predicate, don't presume that the index
    predicate has already been declared and defined; instead, declare
    and define it then and there. (Index predicates are *never* called
    from anywhere else.)

    Pack the information needed to define a special predicate
    into a single structure, to simplify the above.

    Since the creation of a clause for a compare predicate may now require
    the declaration and definition of an index predicate, the module_info
    field of the unify_proc_info is now a writeable field.

    Give some predicates and function symbols more meaningful names.

    Note some problems with the existing code.

7231df1666 Simplify hlds_dependency_graph.m.
compiler/hlds_dependency_graph.m:
    Make module_info_ensure_dependency_info return the dependency info,
    so that the caller does not have to get it separately.

    Simplify the type class used in the module: make it cover only the
    operation used in traversing goals. Making it cover the operations
    used in traversing predicates as well takes more code and adds more
    complexity than it saves.

    Rewrite the code that traverses predicates to avoid code duplication.
    The tests for whether a predicate or procedure should be processed
    used to be duplicated, and in one case the duplication was imperfect,
    i.e. two different pieces of code implicitly made inconsistent assumptions
    about each other. Rewriting the code so that code that adds arcs to the
    digraph accepts the decisions of the code that added the nodes to the
    digraph eliminates this problem.

    Factor out the common code for adding a new edge to the digraph.

    Traversing a predicate or procedure does not guarantee that we will add it
    to the digraph as a node. To reflect this, add a "maybe" prefix to the
    names of the affected predicates.

    Put related predicates next to each other.

dea4368f7d Make each SCC in the dependency graph a set, not a list.
This is to make the data type follow the inherent semantics of SCCs
more closely, and enforce the invariant that a procedure can appear
in the SCC only once.

Also, rename the list of SCCs from "dependency_ordering", which does
not give a clue about *which way* the SCCs are ordered, to "bottom_up_sccs",
which does.

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

    Document why we reverse the list generated by digraph.atsort.

    Document the order in which digraph.atsort returns the list of SCCs.

    Note that the last step of atsort is to reverse the list, which
    its caller in compiler/dependency_graph.m will then immediately
    re-reverse.

    Document the order in which digraph.tsort and digraph.dfs return
    a list of items.

    Give some variables more meaningful names, and make the argument order
    of some predicates conform to our conventions.

compiler/hlds_out_module.m:

e2ffb8d01a Reorganise dependency graph code
This change moves code that could be generic/common out of
hlds_dependency_graph.m into dependency_graph.m.  It also moves some code
from hlds_module.m into hlds_dependency_graph.m where it makes more sense.

compiler/dependency_graph.m:
    New module.

    Make the accessors predicates functions and give them more sensible
    names.

    Create a new accessors to get a version or the dependency ordering,
    condensed into a single list.

compiler/hlds_dependency_graph.m:
    Build the dependency_info structure in a more straightforward way.  It
    can easily be created with a single call rather than three.  The
    dependency ordering information is now calculated by dependency_graph.m.

    Make build_dependency_graph, build_proc_dependency_graph and

4ebc3ffa04 Carve four modules out of prog_data.m.
The prog_data.m module is imported by most modules of the compiler; by
359 modules out of 488, to be exact. Yet it has many parts that most of
those 359 modules don't need. This diff puts those parts into four new
modules. The number of imports of these modules:

    348 modules import prog_data.m
     84 modules import prog_data_foreign.m
     62 modules import prog_data_pragma.m
     12 modules import prog_data_event.m
      5 modules import prog_data_used_modules.m

compiler/prog_data_event.m:
compiler/prog_data_foreign.m:
compiler/prog_data_pragma.m:
compiler/prog_data_used_modules.m:
    New modules. They contain the parts of the parse tree that deal
    respectively with the specification of events and event sets,
    interfacing to foreign languages, pragmas, and the sets of used
    (i.e. not unused) modules.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Delete the stuff that is now in the new modules. Put the remaining parts
    of the module into a logical order.

1fcdc4cdc0 Use the op_mode, not the options that help determine it.
The options that help determine the op_mode are only sort-of mutually
exclusive; in some cases, more than one can be set. Using the op_mode
instead of the options themselves means that we are using the result
of the process (in op_mode.m) that resolves conflicts between them.

Another benefit is that in some places in the code, many op_modes
have already been processed, which means that the set of remaining op_modes
is a reasonably small set.

compiler/options.m:
    Give all the options that op_mode.m uses to compute the op_mode
    new internal names. (The user-visible names are not affected.)
    Each new internal name is the old internal name with an added
    "only_opmode_" prefix, indicating that the option should not be used
    for any purpose other than computing the op_mode.

    Change the documentation of the --generate-module-order and --imports-graph
    options. (See handle_options.m below for the reason.)

doc/user_guide.texi:
    Change the documentation of the --generate-module-order and --imports-graph
    options, as in compiler/options.m.

compiler/handle_options.m:
    Delete implications that set the values of options that help decide the
    op_mode, since those implications used to be executed *after* we decided
    the op_mode. Replace each of their functionalities with something else.

    For the implication from --rebuild to --make, the replacement is
    new code in op_mode.m (see below).

    For the implication from --invoked-by-mmc-make to --no-make,
    the needed replacement code was already in op_mode.m.

    For the implications from --generate-module-order and --imports-graph
    to --generate-dependencies, do not replace them. Instead, document that
    they are effective only if the op mode is generating dependencies.
    This goes against the current documentation of --generate-module-order,
    though not of --imports-graph (the help message for --imports-graph
    is silent on its relationship with --generate-dependencies). However,
    the new documented (and implemented) behavior is actually more useful,
    since it allows both options to be specified in Mmakefiles or
    Mercury.options files, have them be acted on when making dependencies,
    but not get error messages about incompatible op mode options.
    However, it does mean that "mmc --generate-module-order x.m" would
    now try to compile x.m while ignoring the option, whereas previously
    it would implicitly act as if the command line were "mmc
    --generate-dependencies --generate-module-order x.m". And similarly
    for --imports-graph.

    Simplify the code that disables smart recompilation when it is not
    relevant.

NEWS:
    Mention the changes to --generate-module-order and --imports-graph.

compiler/op_mode.m:
    Make the opm_top_make functor take an argument that says whether we
    are forcing rebuilds or not. The --rebuild option implies we are;
    the --make option without --rebuild implies we are not. This replaces
    the deleted implication in handle_options.m.

    Conform to the name changes in options.m.

    In mercury_compile*.m, get the op_mode to the places that now need it.

    In a few places in make.*.m, replace code that sets op_mode options
    (temporarily, for the duration of an operation) with code that sets
    the op_mode itself.

compiler/globals.m:

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.

compiler/compiler_util.m:
    Since both handle_options.m and compute_grade.m now need to be able

4eab5db092 Append to .opt.tmp files only once.
Previously, every analysis that could append to the .opt.tmp file did so
individually. This diff arranges things so that we append to that file
at most once. (We thus open it at most twice; the original creation,
and this consolidated append of analysis results.)

compiler/hlds_module.m:
    Add a field to the module_rare_info, the rarely updated component of the
    module_info, that records which analyses have put their results into the
    proc_infos of the module's procedures.

compiler/trailing_analysis.m:
    When these passes have finished generating analysis results, don't call
    intermod.m to write them out. Instead, simply record the presence of the
    results in the new field of the module_info.

compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m:
    When asked to create the .opt file, invoke a predicate in intermod.m
    to write out analysis results after the requested analyses have been run,
    since the analyses themselves won't do so.

compiler/intermod.m:
    Replace the predicates that each write out the results of just one
    analysis with a predicate that writes out the results of all the analyses
    that have been run, as recorded in the new field in the module_info.
    (Getting the information from there avoid having the duplicate the logic
    of the analysis passes themselves, which would be a double maintenance
    burden.)

753fe25c90 Put the later parts of .*opt files in a standard order.
compiler/intermod.m:
    We used to put predicate declarations and definitions into .opt files
    in order of pred_id. Since pred_ids are allocated sequentially, this
    meant that the order of the pragmas in .*opt files recording analysis
    results was determined by the order of the predicate declarations
    in the .m file, and if this changes, everything that depends on the
    .opt file has to be recompiled. Change this to put the pragmas into
    an order based on the predicates' names, arities, and pred_or_func flag.

    Precede each block of analysis results (one block per pragma type)
    with a blank line, to make .*opt files a bit easier to read by revealing
    their structure.

    When printing analysis results for all the procedures of a predicate,
    don't get a list of proc_ids and then look them up one by one; just
    iterated over all the proc_infos in the proc_table.

    Rename some predicates to make their names fit into the naming scheme
    used in the rest of the module.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    The results of the exception, trailing and mm_tabling analyses
    used to be stored in the module_info as maps from pred_proc_ids
    to the results about the procedure. Change this to store them
    in the proc_info of the procedure, since any code that looks up
    the results of an analysis typically also wants to look up other
    information in the proc_info as well. (intermod.m certainly does.)

    The results of the termination, structure sharing and structure reuse
    analysis were already stored in the proc_info.

compiler/add_pragma.m:
    When reading in exceptions, trailing and mm_tabling pragmas,
    add their information to the named procedure's proc_info,
    not to a map in the module_info.

compiler/exception_analysis.m:
compiler/tabling_analysis.m:
compiler/trailing_analysis.m:
    Put analysis results into procedures' proc_infos, not into a map
    in the module_info, and if need be, look it up there as well.

compiler/goal_form.m:
    Look up the results of exception_analysis in procedures' proc_infos,
    not in a map in the module_info.

compiler/lco.m:
    Work around a bug in lco.m itself exposed by the move of analysis
    results to proc_infos. When lco.m duplicates the proc_info of a procedure
    that it optimizes, it now duplicates its analysis results as well.
    The duplication is correct in a sense, since any results of the exception,
    trailing and mm_tabling analysis that hold for the original procedure
    have to hold for the duplicate copy as well, but interestingly, this extra
    precision causes simplify to believe that the call from the original
    procedure to duplicated procedure is dead code that can be eliminated,
    since it is det and appears to have no outputs. In fact, it does have
    outputs, but it returns those outputs via impure calls to store_at_ref.
    While the call to store_at_ref in the duplicated procedure is marked
    as impure, the call to the duplicate procedure in the original procedure
    is NOT (yet) so marked.

compiler/parse_tree_out_pred_decl.m:
    When printing parts of predicate declarations, e.g. as parts of pragmas
    that record analysis results, don't take as an argument a context that
    will never be used.

a standard order.

compiler/intermod.m:
    Move predicates here from the other modules below.

    Give a predicate a clearer name.

compiler/mercury_compile_front_end.m:
    Use the clearer name.

compiler/exception_analysis.m:
compiler/structure_reuse.analysis.m:
compiler/structure_sharing.analysis.m:
compiler/tabling_analysis.m:
compiler/termination.m:
compiler/trailing_analysis.m:
    Move to intermod.m (a) the code that appends analysis results to
    .opt files, and (b) the code that decides whether a procedure's analysis
    results *should* be written to .opt files. In the analyses that are
    part of the intermodule analysis framework, the latter is needed,
    since if a result shouldn't be written to the .opt file, it shouldn't
    be given to the intermodule analysis framework either.

compiler/term_constr_main_types.m:
    The code that writes out termination2_info pragmas needs access
    to the types representing the results of the termination2 analysis.
    To avoid requiring intermod.m import term_constr_main.m, move
    those types to this new module.

compiler/transform_hlds.m:
    Include the new module.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
    Document the new module, along with the other modules of the termination2
    analysis, which weren't documented before.

    term_constr_main_types.m.

    Note that importing term_constr_main_types instead of term_constr_main
    in the other term_constr_* modules breaks a circular import chain.

bbb2535eb5 Break up mercury_to_mercury.m.
With almost 6000 lines, mercury_to_mercury.m was one of the biggest modules
of compiler, but it was far from cohesive. This diff carves seven new modules
out of it, each of which is much more cohesive. The stuff remaining in
mercury_to_mercury.m is still not as cohesive as one would like, but it is
now small enough that moving its individually-cohesive parts into modules
of their own would be overkill.

Three consequences of the old mercury_to_mercury.m's lack of cohesion
were that

- the order of predicate declarations often did not match the order of
  their implementation;
- related predicates were not grouped together;
- even when they were grouped together, the order of those groups
  was often random.

This diff fixes all three of these problems for all eight successor modules
of mercury_to_mercury.m: the seven new modules, and the new
mercury_to_mercury.m itself.

In some cases, this diff adds or improves the documentation of the predicates
in mercury_to_mercury.m's successor modules. In some other cases, it just
documents the lack of documentation :-(. In yet other cases, it removes
"documentation" that says nothing that isn't obvious from the predicate's name.

There are some algorithmic changes, but they are all trivial.

compiler/parse_tree_out.m:
    New module containing the code to print out the top levels of parse trees,
    including most sorts of items.

compiler/parse_tree_out_clause.m:
    New module containing the code to print out clauses and goals.

compiler/parse_tree_out_pragma.m:
    New module containing the code to print out pragmas.

compiler/parse_tree_out_pred_decl.m:
    New module containing the code to print out predicate, function and
    mode declarations. It is separate from parse_tree_out.m because a
    significant number of compiler modules need only its functionality,
    and not parse_tree_out.m's functionality.

compiler/parse_tree_out_inst.m:
    New module containing the code to print out insts and modes.

compiler/parse_tree_out_term.m:
    New module containing the code to print out variables and terms.

compiler/parse_tree_out_info.m:
    New module containing the infrastructure of both mercury_to_mercury.m
    and the other new modules.

compiler/parse_tree.m:
    Include the new modules.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
    Document the new modules.

compiler/Mercury.options:
    Transfer an option from mercury_to_mercury.m to the successor module
    that needs it.

compiler/*.m:
    Import one of the new modules either as well as, or instead of,
    mercury_to_mercury.m. In most cases, we need to import only one
    or two of mercury_to_mercury.m's successor modules; nowhere do we
    need to import all eight.

    Clean up some code in termination.m around a call to one of the
    new modules.

    Replace mercury_to_mercury.m on the list of the ten largest modules
    of the compiler.

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.)

    should be invoked with --no-warn-unused-imports.

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

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

    In a few cases, conform to other changes above.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Remove the stuff now in the three new modules.

compiler/prog_type_subst.m:

c1402f8b99 Clean up hlds_module.m.
compiler/hlds_module.m:
    Put related fields of the module_sub_info next to each other.

    Some of those fields contained lists that were built reversed,
    in order to avoid O(N^2) behavior when repeatedly adding new items
    to the end of the list. Replace these with cords, which did not exist
    when those fields were first added.

    Give some fields and their getter/setter predicates more descriptive
    names.

    Separate out both the declarations and definitions of the getter and
    setter predicates, and put them into the same order as the (updated)
    order of the fields. Put the utility predicates (those that are more
    complicated than just getters or setters) into an order based on
    what fields they work on, following the same order.

    Improve the operation of some of the utility predicates, e.g. replacing
    a nondet predicate with a det predicate returning a set.

    Delete an unused type.

    Conform to the changes in the modules imported by hlds_module.m,
    e.g. pred_table.m, prog_data.m and prog_foreign.m.

compiler/pred_table.m:
    We used to store the set of valid pred ids as two lists, again to avoid
    O(N^2) behavior. Replace the two lists with a set. This allows
    looking up the set *without* updating the pred_table, or, when
    the pred_table is within the module_info, updating the module_info.

    Instead of allowing callers to replace the set of valid pred ids wholesale,
    enforce the documented invariant on that set by only allowing deletions.

    Conform to the changes above.

    In many places, the change to how the valid pred ids are stored
    allows us to avoid creating new module_infos.

    In some places, fix style issues I noticed while working on the above.

compiler/llds.m:
compiler/mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m:
    Conform to the changes above.

    Move a type from llds.m to mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m, since
    only the latter uses it.

compiler/prog_data.m:

    Replace some types that used to hold reversed lists with cords.

    In prog_foreign.m, represent the two kinds of foreign code that
    do NOT define procedures with similarly named types.

    Delete a type (user_foreign_code) that duplicated another type.

    Replace an equivalence type with a notag type, for safety.

compiler/recompilation.usage.m:
compiler/typecheck.m:
compiler/typecheck_errors.m:
    Now that we have direct access to the set of visible modules,
    simplify the logic of some code dealing with those modules.

Estimated hours taken: 12
Branches: main

This diff changes data representations, but has no significant changes
in algorithms.

This diff is performance neutral; the difference in performance it makes
is in the noise. This is not surprising. Since the compiler does not spend
much time handling pragmas, how we handle them does not affect speed much.

compiler/prog_item.m:
	Change the representation of items representing pragmas.

	The first change is providing a bunch of types that each store
	all the information needed for one or more kinds of pragma.
	This allows the information about a pragma to be passed around
	and manipulated as an entity of its own. This is the main
	reason for the change; I want to add a new pragma type,
	and I want new pragma types to be easy to add.

	The second change is factoring out some commonalities in these types,
	specifically, the various different ways of specifying predicates
	and procedures.

	tighter.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

	Move float register arguments to the end of a closure's hidden
	arguments vector, after regular register arguments.

	Count hidden regular and float register arguments separately, but
	encode them in the same word in the closure.  This is preferable to
	using two words because it reduces the differences between grades
	with and without float registers present.

	Disable generating code which creates a closure from an existing
	closure, if float registers exist.  That code does not understand the
	reordered hidden arguments vector yet.

compiler/continuation_info.m:
	Replace an argument's type_info in the closure layout if the argument

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

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

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

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.

	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:

	Add the new modules.

compiler/mark_static_terms.m:
	Move this module from the ml_backend package to the hlds package,

	also needed by a compiler pass (loop invariants) in the middle passes.

compiler/hlds.m:

	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.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.

	Although I have tried to be careful about this, it is also possible
	that in some places, the code is using an updated-for-an-invocation
	globals structure in some but not all of the places where it
	SHOULD be used.

	options of interest just once, to make further access much faster.

	(In the case of mlds_to_c.m, the code already did much of this,
	but it still had a few accesses to globals in the I/O state that
	this diff eliminates.)
