The main objective of this change is to get bootchecks in the csharp
and java grades to actually build the slice, profiler, deep_profiler
and mfilterjavac directories, which (due to the bug this diff fixes)
they weren't doing before.
However, since one side effect of this change is to eliminate
one source of annoying warnings from mmake about references to undefined
variables, a subsidiary objective is to eliminate other sources of such
warnings as well, which mostly come from the rules for making tags files.

When creating stage 3, the bootcheck builds, in each directory,
only the files that it wants to compare against their stage 2 versions.
This means that it wants to build all the .c, .cs or .java files,
which it does via the cs, css and javas mmake targets.
The correct definitions of the rules of these targets depends on
whether mmc --make is being used or not, so we need at least two
sets of definitions: one for mmc --make, and for no mmc --make,
and conditionally selecting the appropriate one. The latter definition
has the problem that it refers to mmake variables that are intended
to be defined in .dv files created by mmc --generate-dependencies,
but until that has been run, those mmake variables are undefined.
Until now, the only directories that had both the mmc --make
and the no mmc --make definitions were the ones needed to build
the compiler. Bootchecks in the csharp and java grades, which
always use --make make, got errors when they tried to build
the directories that bootcheck builds after the compiler:
the slice, profiler, deep_prof and mfilterjavac directories.
This diff ensures that all directories we build in bootcheck
get all both versions of the os, cs, css, and javas targets.
In fact, they get two subversions of the no mmc --make version:
one for use in the presence of .dv files, and one for use in their
absence. The latter just builds the .dv files and invokes mmake
again. This avoids one source of warnings about undefined mmake
variables.
To avoid another source, make the rules for tags files and their
proxies depends on *.m instead of mmake variables such as $(mcov.ms),
since this makes sense even before making dependencies. The only price
is that any untracked Mercury source files in the directory have to
either be given some other suffix, or moved somewhere else.
Where relevant, make the mtags invocation prefer the master versions
of files that are copied from the mdbcomp directory to other directories,
since this is the only writeable version.
Make the os and cs rules consistently NOT build the _init.[co] files.
The way we use those files in bootcheck, we never need them;
when we need them, the right target to give is the executable anyway.
In the slice directory, don't put mcov between mtc_union and mtc_diff.
Eliminate unnecessary duplication, e.g. of sources in rules.
Eliminate double negatives in conditionals.
Fix formatting.

test.lexer.

These two directories contain programs that are independent of the
compiler, and may thus need to be compiled in different grades.
They thus need copies of compiled library modules that are separate from
the compiler's compiled versions of those same library modules.
For Mercury standard library modules, they can get those from the
installed Mercury system. For modules of the mdbcomp library, we
copy them bodily to these two directories, and compile them there.
We used to use a cumbersome technique for this copying. Use a simpler,
more direct method for this, one that does not copy any file unnecessarily,
thus eliminating unnecessary recompilations.
The make mechanism that the new method uses, static pattern rules,
either did not exist when I wrote the old rule, or I did not know
about it.
This file-specific setting will override a default setting of expandtabs
in $HOME/.vimrc.

Fix some problems that were preventing the system from compiling properly with
MSVC.
(1) Visual Studio 2013 no longer includes the files NtWin32.Mak and Win32.Mak
which are required for building the Boehm GC with MSVC. (This appears to be an
issue with upstream Boehm as well.) The workaround here is to reference the
copies of this files included with the Windows 7 SDK. (This appears to be the
official Microsoft workaround for dealing with this problem for now.)
(2) Disable support for `--c-debug' when using MSVC. Using this option causes
MSVC to emit .pdb (Program Data Base), that contain the symbol information for
an object files. This causes a variety of problems:
(i) parallel builds are contending for the vc*.pdb file shared by all the
object files in a directory causing compilation to abort. (Compiling with
the -FS option is another solution to this -- it causes the compiler to
serialize access to the .pdb file -- but at the cost of slowing down
compilation.)
(ii) .pdb files are not cleaned up by realclean; compilation will abort
if a pdb file generated by a different version of MSVC is encountered.
(iii) we don't install the .pdb files alongside the libraries anyway.
This can be a source of linker warnings. (And shutting up the Microsoft
linker seems to be very difficult indeed ...)
(iv) compiling with -Zi (apparently) inhibits some C compiler optimizations.
Compiling with the older -Z7 (MSVC 7 style debugging info) option is another
alternative. Using that option causes MSVC to include symbol information in
the object files, instead of in a separate file.
For now (i.e. the 14.01 release), disabling `--c-debug' for MSVC is the
simplest way of addressing the above issues.
README.MS-VisualC:
Describe the problem with NtWin32.Mak and Visual Studio 2013 and

used.)
In slice/ and deep_profiler/, when 'realclean' was executed

Introduce a feedback system that allows analysis tools to feed information
back into the compiler. This can be used with the deep profiler to improve
many optimizations. Tools update information in the feedback file rather than

mdprof_feedback updates a feedback file and in the future will be able to

There are some modification for the nondet transformation. When a retry of a
nondet procedure A is asked during the execution of the program, a choicepoint
is left behind and the execution start the retry on procedure B. When the retry
on B is finished, the compiler come back at the choicepoint and finish the call
of the procedure A. This give a wrong number of event.
The proposed solution is: when a retry is asked in a nondet procedure named A
at an exit port, the debugger do not execute any operation until it reach the
fail of the procedure A. It is only at this moment that the execution of B
begin.
If user use a predicate like solutions.unsorted_solutions, he will obtain more
than one time the same solution. The use of solutions is right because it
remove the duplicates

the specialised version be `p1'. Then remove `p'. But due to the ssdb
transformation, `p1' will contain a call to `p', in order to support
retry.
I'm not sure where the ssdb transform should go. I assume as early as
possible.

Make a representation of the program available to the deep profiler. We do
this by letting the user request, via the option "--deep-procrep-file"
in MERCURY_OPTIONS, that when the Deep.data file is written, a Deep.procrep
file should be written alongside it.
The intended use of this information is the discovery of profitable
parallelism. When a conjunction contains two expensive calls, e.g. p(...) and
q(...) connected by some shared variables, the potential gain from executing
them in parallel is limited by how early p produces those variables and how
late q consumes them, and knowing this requires access to the code of p and q.
Since the debugger and the deep profiler both need access to program
representations, put the relevant data structures and the operations on them
in mdbcomp. The data structures are significantly expanded, since the deep
profiler deals with the whole program, while the debugger was interested only
in one procedure at a time.
The layout structures have to change as well. In a previous change, I changed
proc layout structures to make room for the procedure representation even in
non-debugging grades, but this isn't enough, since the procedure representation
refers to the module's string table. This diff therefore makes some parts of
the module layout structure, including of course the string table, also
available in non-debugging grades.
configure.in:
Check whether the installed compiler can process switches on foreign
enums correctly, since this diff depends on that.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_types.h:
Add a new structure, MR_ModuleCommonLayout, that holds the part of
the module layout that is common to deep profiling and debugging.
runtime/mercury_deep_profiling.[ch]:
The old "deep profiling token" enum type was error prone, since at
each point in the data file, only a subset was applicable. This diff
breaks up the this enum into several enums, each consisting of the
choice applicable at a given point.
This also allows some of the resulting enums to be used in procrep
files.
Rename some enums and functions to avoid ambiguities, and in one case
to conform to our naming scheme.
Make write_out_proc_statics take a second argument. This is a FILE *
that (if not NULL) asks write_out_proc_statics to write the
representation of the current module to specified stream.
These module representations go into the middle part of the program
representation file. Add functions to write out the prologue and
epilogue of this file.
Write out procedure representations if this is requested.
Factor out some code that is now used in more than one place.

runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
Provide two new MERCURY_OPTION options. The first --deep-procrep-file,
allows the user to ask for the program representation to be generated.
The second, --deep-random-write, allows tools/bootcheck to request that
only a fraction of all program invocations should generate any deep
profiling output.
The first option will be documented once it is tested much more fully.
The second option is deliberately not documented.
Update the type of the variable that holds the address of the
(mkinit-generated) write_out_proc_statics function to accept the second
argument.
util/mkinit.c:
Pass the extra argument in the argument list of write_out_proc_statics.
mdbcomp/program_representation.m:
Extend the existing data structures for representing a procedure body
to represent a procedure (complete with name), a module and a program.
The name is implemented as string_proc_label, a form of proc_label that
can be written out to files. This replaces the old proc_id type the
deep profiler.
Extend the representation of switches to record the identity of the
variable being switched on, and the cons_ids of the arms. Without the
former, we cannot be sure when a variable is first used, and the latter
is needed for meaningful prettyprinting of procedure bodies.
Add code for reading in files of bytecodes, and for making sense of the
bytecodes themselves. (It is this code that uses foreign enums.)
mdbcomp/prim_data.m:
Note the relationship of proc_label with string_proc_label.

which has long done the same.
Avoid a duplicate include of Mmake.deep.params.
Add the new test program to the list of programs in this directory.
Mmakefile:
