59b11f84ce Update the debugger test directory.
Replace __ with . as the module qualifier symbol.

Replace references to io.state with just io.

Replace DCGs with state variables.

Replace (C->T;E) syntax for if-then-elses with (if C then T else E) syntax.

Replace if-then-elses with switches when possible and where this does not
affect what is being tested.

Replace separate pred and mode declarations with predmode declarations.

Put predicate and function declarations just before the definition
of the predicate or function.

Delete unneeded module qualifications on predicate and function declarations
and definitions.

Update .exp files (and if needed, .inp files) for the line number changes
that result from the above.

For tests that have more than one .exp file and where one of those files
is affected by the above, add a section to the source file header that says
which .exp file is for what grade, with XXXs for the (as yet) unknown parts.

590b34cfac Fix some minor problems in reporting determinism errors.
compiler/det_report.m:
    When a goal has too many solutions, but it occurs in a context in which
    the identity of those solutions does not matter, the compiler inserts
    a commit scope to prune away the redundant (because they are externally
    indistinguishable) solutions.

    When this goal is a switch inside a require_switch_arms_<detism> scope,
    this commit scope added by determinism analysis screwed up the expectation
    of the require_switch_arms_<detism> scope that the switch is its IMMEDIATE
    subgoal. Relax this sometimes-wrong assumption by allowing for a commit
    scope wrapped around the switch.

    When generating error messages for cons_ids missing from switches,
    don't print the module qualifiers for the cons_ids, since users
    will already know it (it is part of the identity of the type of switch-on
    variable).

    Print the missing cons_ids one per line, to make the list easier to read.

    Fix capitalization in some error messages.

compiler/switch_detection.m:
    When creating switch arms, give each arm a more meaningful context
    that the context of the original disjunction, which is usually the context
    of the first ";" operator in it.

tests/invalid/switch_arm_multi_not_det.{m,err_exp}:
    New test case for the fix listed first for det_report.m.

tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
    Enable the new test case.

tests/invalid/det_errors.err_exp:
tests/invalid/require_scopes.err_exp:
    Update these expected outputs for the changes above.

    Make these tests use four-space indentation, and ensure that
    each module is imported on its own line. (I intend to use the latter
    to figure out which subdirectories' tests can be executed in parallel.)

    These changes usually move code to different lines. For the debugger tests,

2bada9761f Eliminate some code duplication by unifying the two goal_path types have had
Estimated hours taken: 2
Branches: main

Eliminate some code duplication by unifying the two goal_path types have had
until now: one in mdbcomp/program_representation.m and compiler/hlds_goal.m,
which differed in only one detail (whether we record the total number of arms
in a switch). The new type is in program_representation.m, but with the
definition from goal_path.m.

Add a "step_" prefix to the function symbols of the goal_path_step type,
to avoid ambiguity with the hlds goals the steps describe.

Turn the predicates operating on goal_paths into functions for greater
convenience of use.

dd44e0ef62 Replace the "set" command of mdb with a bunch of commands: the `format',
Estimated hours taken: 16
Branches: main, release

Replace the "set" command of mdb with a bunch of commands: the `format',
`format_param', `list_context_lines', `list_path', `xml_browser_cmd',
`xml_tmp_filename', `fail_trace_counts', `pass_trace_counts' and
`max_io_actions' commands. Each of these set just one parameter
or one of set of closely related parameters.

Move all these commands, and some existing commands that set parameters
that were elsewhere, to the "parameter" command category.

Extend some of these commands so that if given no arguments, they report
the current values of the parameters they would otherwise set.

Replace the "set" commands of the mdb browser and of the declarative debugger
with a bunch of commands: "format", "depth", "size", "width", "lines",
"actions" and "params" (the last prints the current value of the parameters).

For each category of mdb commands, create files mercury_trace_cmd_<cat>.[ch],
and move the functions dealing with that category of commands there from
mercury_trace_internal.c. Give each of these new files a logical structure
that was sometimes missing from the relevant parts of mercury_trace_internal.c.

25b8b1abc3 Fix several performance bugs that showed up when the compiler was invoked on
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main

Fix several performance bugs that showed up when the compiler was invoked on
Douglas Auclair's training_cars example. Also fix some minor problems that
made it harder to find the information needed to localize those problems.

training_cars.m is hard to compile quickly because it is big in two dimensions:
it has lots of clauses, and each clause has big terms.

My laptop still tries to swap itself to death on the full version of
training_cars.m (it has only 512 Mb), but the compiler now works fine
on a version containing about 20% of its clauses, whereas previously
it couldn't compile it at all.

In most cases, the changes convert N^2 algorithms to NlogN algorithms.
They probably have higher constant factors and may yield small slowdowns
for small N, but this is probably not noticeable. Avoiding bad worst case
behavior is more important.

compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
	Record the number of goals inserted in each goal being converted
	to superhomogeneous form. If this exceeds a threshold, wrap a
	from_ground_term scope around it.

	Put the predicates into a more cohesive sequence.

compiler/field_access.m:
	Work with the code in superhomogeneous to record the number of inserted
	goals. Reorder the arguments of some performances to be consistent
	with the predicates in superhomogeneous.m.

compiler/modes.m:
	Use the from_ground_term scope to reverse the list of inserted
	unifications if necessary. It is much more efficient to do this here
	than to let it happen by sequences of delays and wakeups. That would
	have quadratic complexity; this is linear.

	This is what I originally introduced from_ground_term scopes for.
	Then, the overhead was too high, because I added one scope per function
	symbol. This version should be fine, since there is at most one scope
	added per argument of an atom (clause head or call).

compiler/modes.m:
compiler/unique_modes.m:
	When we are processing goals inside a from_ground_term scope, record
	this fact.

compiler/mode_info.m:
	Make it possible to record this fact.

compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
	When we are inside a from_ground_term scope, don't try to update the
	insts of vars on the right hand sides of construction unifications.
	Since these variables came from expansion to superhomogeneous form,
	those variables won't occur in any following code, so updating their
	state is useless, and the algorithm we used to do so is linear in the
	size of the inst. Since the size of an inst of a variable that results
	from superhomogeneous expansion is itself on average proportional to
	the size of the original term, this change turns a quadratic algorithm
	into a linear one.

compiler/inst_match.m:
	Use balanced trees instead of ordered lists to represents sets of
	expansions, since these sets can be large.

	Note an opportunity for further improvement.

compiler/inst_util.m:
	Note another opportunity for further improvement.

compiler/instmap.m:
	Rename several predicates to avoid ambiguities.

compiler/cse_detection.m:
	We used to print statistics for the processing of each procedure
	without saying which procedure it is for; fix this.

compiler/switch_detection.m:
	Don't print progress messages for predicates with no procedures,
	since they would be misleading.

compiler/higher_order.m:
	Change an algorithm that was quadratic in the number of arms
	for merging the information from the different arms of disjunctions
	and switches to an NlogN algorithm.

	Change the algorithm for merging the info from two branches
	that quadratic in the number of variables per arm to an NlogN
	algorithm.

	Changed some type equivalences to notag types to aid robustness.

compiler/quantification.m:
	Rename several predicates to avoid ambiguities.

	The sets of variables in different arms of disjunctions and switches
	tend to have relatively small intersections. Yet the algorithms we
	used to compute the set of variables free in the disjunction or switch
	included the variables from the already processed arms in the sets
	being accumulated when processing later arms, leading to the quadratic
	behavior. This diff changes the algorithm to process each arm
	independently, and then use a more balanced algorithm to summarize
	the result.

	Specialize the predicates that compute sets of free vars in various
	HLDS fragments to work either with ordinary_nonlocals or
	code_gen_nonlocals without making the same decision repeatedly.

	Move some code out of large predicates into predicates of their own.

compiler/Mercury.options:
	Specify the compiler option that can exploit this specialization
	to make the code run faster.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Use a more efficient data structure for recording the parameters
	of an invocation of simplification.

	Change some predicate names and function symbol names to avoid
	ambiguity.

compiler/common.m:
compiler/deforest.m:
compiler/deforest.m:
compiler/make_hlds_warn.m:
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/pd_util.m:
compiler/stack_opt.m:
compiler/term_constr_build.m:
	Conform to the changes in simplify.m and/or instmap.m.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Fix a bug in progress messages for polymorphism.m.

compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m:
	Most of the time, substitutions inside insts have no effect, because
	very few insts include any reference to a types. Instead of the old
	approach of building new insts and then throwing them away if they
	are the same as the old ones, don't build new insts at all if the
	old inst contains no types.

compiler/common.m:
	Change some predicate names to make them clearer.

compiler/hlds_clauses.m:
	Record the number of clauses so far, to allow a more informative
	progress message to be printed.

compiler/add_clause.m:
	Print this more informative progress message.

	Conform to the changes in superhomogeneous.m.

compiler/code_gen.m:
	Use the context of the predicate's first clause (which will be the
	context of the first clause head) as the context of the predicate's
	interface events. Unlike the context of the body goal, this won't
	be affected by program transformations such as wrapping a
	from_ground_term scope around some goals. It is better for users
	anyway, since the old policy lead to contexts in the middle of
	procedure bodies if the top level goal was a disjunction, switch or
	if-then-else.

tests/debugger/*.exp:
	Update the expected outputs to conform to the change to code_gen.m.

Estimated hours taken: 40
Branches: main

Add mdb `dice' command which reads in a set of passing trace counts and a
failing trace count and prints a comparison table.  The table can be sorted
by various metrics and is useful for finding parts of a program executed in
a failing run, but not in passing runs.

browser/dice.m
	Add a new module for generating and manipulating a dice.

browser/mdb.m
	Add the dice module.

compiler/special_pred.m
mdbcomp/prim_data.m
	Move special_pred_name_arity/3 from compiler/special_pred.m to
	mdbcomp/prim_data.m so it can be used in dice.m.

doc/user_guide.texi
	Document the `dice' mdb command.  Also document the fact that the
	failing and passing slice file names can be set with the `set' mdb
	command.

	Move the `set' command to the misc section from the browser section
	since it now also sets the passing and failing slice file names, which
	have nothing to do with the browser.

library/list.m
	Add map4, map5 and map6 since map6 is needed in dice.m.

mdbcomp/program_representation.m
	Add a predicate to convert a goal path to a string.

mdbcomp/trace_counts.m
	Convert string_to_trace_port into a predicate and add a new mode so
	that a port can be converted back to a string.

runtime/mercury_trace_base.h
trace/mercury_trace_util.h
	Move the MR_TRACE_USE_HP and MR_TRACE_CALL_MERCURY macros to
	runtime/mercury_trace_base.h, so that they can be called from
	browser/dice.m.

tests/Mmake.common
	Clean up trace counts (which are generated to test the `dice' command).

	Add the mdb `dice' command and modify the `set' command so the
	`fail_trace_count' and `pass_trace_counts' parameters can be set.

	Add a function to print a dice.

	Move the `set' command to the misc help section.
