library/fatter_sparse_bitset.m:
Add this version of fat_sparse_bitset.m, which stores *two* words
worth of bits in each cell, not one. This word would otherwise be unused,
because the Boehm-Demers-Weiser allocator rounds up requests for three
word cells to four.
library/MODULES_DOC:
library/library.m:
Add the new module to the list of library modules.
library/fat_sparse_bitset.m:
library/sparse_bitset.m:
library/tree_bitset.m:
Update the documentation of all these other bitset modules. Copy
the same basic introduction to all the relevant modules. Add documentation
of the differences to tree_bitset.m and fatter_sparse_bitset.m, with
a pointer in fat_sparse_bitset.m to fatter_sparse_bitset.m.
library/test_bitset.m:
Test the new module as well as the others.
tests/hard_coded/speedtest_bitset.m:
Extend the benchmarking of list_to_set operations to the new module.
To allow the benchmarking to be tough enough to be informative, comment
out the benchmarking of the old_list_to_set operations.
library/sparse_bitset.m:
library/fat_sparse_bitset.m:
Speed up the remove_leq and remove_gt operations by moving a
loop invariant computation, the conversion of the boundary item's index
into an <offset,bitposn> pair, out of the loop.
Eliminate some unnecessary differences between the two modules,
e.g. clear_bit being a predicate rather than a function.
library/test_bitset.m:
Add facilities to test the remove_leq and remove_gt operations
of sparse_bitset.m, fat_sparse_bitset.m, and tree_bitset.m
against the same operations on plain old set_ordlists.
Bring this module up to date by requiring set elements to be
members of the uenum typeclass, not the enum typeclass.
Make the test_bitset type a bespoke type.
library/tree_bitset.m:
Add predicate versions of the remove_leq and remove_gt operations
alongside the existing function versions, to allow the new code
in test_bitset.m to work the same way regardless of which bitset module
it is testing.
For uniformity with the other bitset modules, require set elements to be
members of the uenum typeclass, not the enum typeclass.
Change the other integers, such as level numbers, to be unsigned
as well, to avoid the need for casts.

Delete predicates and functions that have been marked as obsolete
since at least 2019.
Adjust documentation as required.
NEWS:
Announce the deletions.
In the Mercury standard library, every exported predicate or function
has (or at least *should* have) a comment that documents it, including
the meanings of its arguments. About 35-40% of these modules put `'s
(left and right quotes) around the names of the variable representing
those arguments. Some tried to do it consistently (though there were spots
with unquoted or half quoted names), while some did it only a few places.
This is inconsistent: we should either do it everywhere, or nowhere.
This diff makes it nowhere, because
- this is what the majority of the standard library modules do;
- this is what virtually all of the modules in the compiler, profiler,
deep_profiler etc directories do;
- typing all those quotes when adding new predicates in modules that
follow this convention is a pain in the ass; and because
- on many modern terminals, `' looks non-symmetrical and weird.
Likewise, the comment explaining a predicate often started with
% `predname(arguments)' returns ...
This diff deletes these quotes as well, since they add nothing useful.
This diff does leave in place quotes around code fragments, both terms
and goals, where this helps delineate the boundaries of that fragment.

COPYING.LIB:

*:
Update references to COPYING.LIB.
Clean up some minor errors that have accumulated in copyright
messages.
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

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

compiler/inst_match.m:

This speeds up compilation of one version of the rcpsp_cpx
stress test by about 9%, with negligible effect on tools/speedtest.
Some cleanups that should have been committed before this diff follow.
Change the structure of many of the predicates in this module from
containing multiple clauses, to a single clause with an explicit
disjunction, which (where relevant) now gets a require_comple_switch
wrapper. In several cases, this change has shown that we were
missing code for handling some kinds of insts. For example, some
predicates handled free/0 but not free/1, even though there was
no reason for the difference. This diff fixes such oversights
in places where the right action seems obvious to me, and adds
XXXs in places where I see no obvious fix.
Rename several predicates and function symbols to avoid ambiguities.
Add some XXXs on potential problems.

Fix a performance problem in liveness. Liveness makes many calls to
divide_by_set, but the existing implementation of that predicate in
tree_bitset.m did not exploit the structure of its operands.
After this diff, it now does so, though not yet to the fullest extent
possible. However, even this is enough to reduce the time needed
to compile a variant of the zm_rcpsp_cpx.m stress test from 66 seconds
to 15, with liveness analysis no longer being the bottleneck.
On tools/speedtest, we get about a 0.4% speedup, which is just
above the noise threshold.
library/tree_bitset.m:
Specialize the implementation of divide_by_set for many of
the possible cases. Leave XXXs where further specialization
is possible.
Put some predicate definitions in a more logical order.
compiler/test_bitset.m:
This module has long been used (initially by Simon Taylor, later
by me) to test the correctness of the implementation of first
sparse_bitset.m and later tree_bitset.m. However, since it
slows down all set operations a lot (by doing them twice, once using
a bitset module and once using set_ordlist, and then comparing
the results), it is never enabled in production compilers,
and since it is usually not imported by any ordinary compiler
modules, it is rarely even compiled. It has thus tended to
get bitrot; changes in the set modules it uses need corresponding
changes in this module, but it has not been getting them.
To fix this, move this module from the compiler directory to the
library directory. By including the moved version in the library,
it will always be compiled, and anyone who breaks it will have
to fix the breakage before checking in their change.
The cost is about 16 kilobytes in the Mercury library's .so file,
which is well worth it.
library/test_bitset.m:
The moved module. It had to be updated to compile and work
with the current versions of tree_bitset.m and set_ordlist.m.

tests/hard_coded/test_tree_bitset.{m,exp}:
Make this module, which tests the operation of tree_bitset.m,
both more thorough and more controllable.
Make it more thorough by testing it not just with some toy sets
and some small random sets as inputs, but also with some inputs
specifically designed to be stress tests. These are taken from
the old tree_bitset_difference test case.
Make it more thorough in another way by also testing the divide_by_set
operation.
Make it more controllable by making it easy to test just one operation
(for me now, that was of course divide_by_set), without the distraction
of outputs from tests of other operations.
tests/hard_coded/tree_bitset_tester.m:
This module used to do the job of test_bitset.m for test_tree_bitset.m.
This was needed while test_bitset.m was in the compiler directory,
but it is not needed now, and keeping it presents a double maintenance
problem. This diff therefore deletes it, and makes test_tree_bitset.m
use test_bitset.m from the library.
tests/hard_coded/tree_bitset_difference.{m,exp}:
Delete this test case. The stress test inputs it used to test the
difference operation with are now in test_tree_bitset.m, which
uses them to test not just the difference operation, but other
operations as well.
tests/hard_coded/test_bitset.{m,exp}:

Fix two more problems with tree_bitset.difference.
The first problem, fixed by Peter Wang, was a stray "+1". This was in code
that tried to figure out the difference between two lists of nodes that could
be at different levels, and occurred when the level of the first operand
was lower than the level of the second.
The second problem occurred when the level of the first operand was greater
than the level of the second. The code tried to handle this case, but did not
do so correctly, mainly because it assumed that raising by one level is always
enough.
The underlying cause of both problems was that the predicate involved
(interiorlist_difference) tried to do too much: compute the difference AND
match the levels of the input operands. The overall fix is to get the caller
to ensure that the two operands are at the same level.
This diff was tested with
- set_of_var using test_bitset instead of tree_bitset, to test the results
of every set_of_var operation,
- with tree_bitset's bits_per_level set to 1, to force the execution of code
dealing with different levels of nodes much more frequently than the usual
bits_per_level=5 (with the latter setting, only enormous sets ever have more
than one level of interior node), and
- with integrity tests on tree_bitset.m enabled.
library/tree_bitset.m:
Make the above change.
tests/hard_coded/tree_bitset_difference.{m,exp}:
Update the test case to test all the operand pairs listed in the Mantis
bug report, in two forms: one that showed the bug on 32-bit systems,
and one that showed the bug on 64-bit systems. (The word size matters
because one leaf node contains one word's worth of bits.)
Since we now generate much more output, checking the equivalence
of the results generated by tree_bitset.m and by set.m by eye is no
longer trivial. Make the code do the check itself, and print output
only if there is a mismatch.

Predicates with many variables, such as some of those in zm_enums.m,
tickle pretty bad behavior in the liveness and stack_alloc passes.
This is because those passes manipulate sets of variables, which in
such cases are large sets of variables, and the quadratic behavior
of repeated operations on sets represents as sorted lists hurts us.
This diff changes the representation of the sets of variables involved
in those two passes, which are the prebirth, postbirth, predeath and postdeath
sets in goal_infos, to be values of an abstract type (set_of_progvar).
By default, these are implemented using tree_bitsets, which have much better
worst case behaviour that set_ordlists.
When compiling zm_enums with debugging enabled, this diff speeds up
the liveness pass by about half and the stack alloc pass by about a third,
with the overall speedup being about 6% (due to some other expensive passes).
On tools/speedtest -l, the result is a 3.4% slowdown. Since the slowdown
worsens slightly if I make the abstract representation of sets of prog_vars
be the existing representation (an ordinary set), I think this slowdown is
due to the conversions that are now required in some places between the
abstract representation and an explicit set(prog_var) representation.
As such, as other uses of set(progvar) get converted to set_of_progvar,
this slowdown should disappear.
compiler/set_of_var.m:
The new module that contains the set_of_progvar abstract data type.
This module also contains a copy of the code of the graph_colour
module. Since the set_of_progvar type is private, this is necessary
if we want all the set operations done by graph colouring (which does
the bulk of the work of the stack alloc pass) to use the preferred
set representation.

and postdeath sets in goal_infos, and for other liveness-related
sets of variables.
compiler/code_info.m:
Some of the fields of the code_info structure represent sets of
variables, and some of the predicates defined by this module have
arguments that are sets of variables. If these sets represent entities
that are computed from prebirth, postbirth, predeath and postdeath
sets or from other goal_info fields that have been changed to the
set_of_progvar representation, change them to use the set_of_progvar
representation as well, or, in a few cases, to plain sorted lists.

Bring the interface of this module closer to set.m and tree_bitset.m
to make them more easily interchangeable. This required adding the

forms of union_list and intersect_list.
I also added missing type_spec pragmas for some predicates frequently
used by the compiler.
library/tree_bitset.m:
Bring the interface of this module closer to set.m and set_ordlist.m

Fix an old bug in the difference operation. Given SetA - SetB,
if SetA was the empty set, then this operation would correctly
return the empty set if SetB was small (represented by a leaf list),
but would incorrectly return SetB if it was large (represented by
