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,
specify the new line numbers in .inp files and expect them in .exp files.

Major improvements to tabling, of two types.
Estimated hours taken: 32
Branches: main
Major improvements to tabling, of two types. The first is the implementation
of the loopcheck and memo forms of tabling for model_non procedures, and the
second is a start on the implementation of a new method of implementing
minimal model tabling, one that has the potential for a proper fix of the
problem that we currently merely detect with the pneg stack (the detection
is followed by a runtime abort). Since this new method relies on giving each
own generator its own stack, the grade component denoting it is "mmos"
(minimal model own stack). The true name of the existing method is changed
from "mm" to "mmsc" (minimal model stack copy). The grade component "mm"
is now a shorthand for "mmsc"; when the new method works, "mm" will be changed
to be a shorthand for "mmos".

Conform to the changes in minimal model grade options.
compiler/table_gen.m:
Implement the transformations required by the loopcheck and memo
tabling of model_non procedures, and the minimal model own stack
transformation.
The new implementation transformations use foreign_procs with extra
args, since there is no point in implementing them both that way and
with separate calls to library predicates. This required making the
choice of which method to use at the top level of each transformation.
Fix an oversight that hasn't caused problems yet but may in the future:
mark goals wrapping the original goals as not impure for determinism
computations.
compiler/handle_options.m:

It no longer has a field for an answer num, because while it is ok

it is not ok to require a separate grade for debugging memo tabling
of model_non predicates. Instead of printing the answer numbers,
print the answers themselves when we need to identify solutions
for debugging.

Reduce the overhead of all forms of tabling by eliminating in many cases
Estimated hours taken: 32
Branches: main
Reduce the overhead of all forms of tabling by eliminating in many cases
the overhead of transferring data across the C/Mercury boundary. These
involve lots of control transfers as well as assignments to and from
Mercury abstract machine registers, which are not real machine registers
on x86 machines. Benchmarking in Uppsala revealed this overhead to be
a real problem.
The way we do that is by changing the tabling transformation so that instead
of generating sequences of calls to predicates from library/table_builtin.m,
we generate sequences of calls to C macros from runtime/mercury_tabling_pred.h,
and emit the resulting code string as the body of a foreign_proc goal.
(The old transformation is still available via a new option,
--no-tabling-via-extra-args.)
Since the number of inputs and outputs of the resulting C code sequences
are not always fixed (they can depend on the number of input or output
arguments of predicate being transformed), implementing this required
adding to foreign_procs a new field that allows the specification of extra
arguments to be passed to and from the given foreign code fragment. For now,
this mechanism is implemented only by the C backends, since it is needed
only by the C backends. (We don't support yet tabling on other backends.)
To simplify the new implementation of the field on foreign_procs, consolidate
three existing fields into one. Each of these fields was a list with one
element per argument, so turning them into a single list with a combined record
per argument should also improve reliability, since it reduces the likelyhood
of updates leaving the data structure inconsistent.
The goal paths of components of a tabled predicate depend on whether
-no-tabling-via-extra-args was specified. To enable the expected outputs
of the debugger test cases testing tabling, we add a new mdb command,
goal_paths, that controls whether goal paths are printed by the debugger
at events, and turn off the printing of events in the relevant test cases.
Also, prepare for a future change to optimize the trie structure for
user-defined types by handling type_infos (and once we support them,
typeclass_infos) specially.
compiler/table_gen.m:
Change the tabling transformation along the lines described above.
To allow us to factor out as much of the new code as possible,
we change the meaning of the call_table_tip variable for minimal
model subgoals: instead of the trie node at the end of the answer
table, it is not now the subgoal reachable from it. This change
has no effect as yet, because we use call_table_tip variables
only to perform resets across retries in the debugger, and we
don't do retries across calls to minimal model tabled predicates.
Put predicates into logical groups.
library/table_builtin.m:
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h:
When the new transformations in table_gen.m generate foreign_procs
with variable numbers of arguments, the interfaces of those
foreign_procs often do not match the interfaces of the existing
library predicates at their core: they frequently have one more
or one fewer argument. To prevent any possible confusion, in such
cases we add a new variant of the predicate. These predicates
have the suffix _shortcut in their name. Their implementations
are dummy macros that do nothing; they serve merely as placeholders
before or after which the macros that actually do the work are
inserted.
Move the definitions of the lookup, save and restore predicates
into mercury_tabling_preds.h. Make the naming scheme of their
arguments more regular.
runtime/mercury_minimal_model.c:
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h:
Move the definition of a predicate from mercury_minimal_model.c
to mercury_tabling_preds.h, since the compiler now needs to be
able to generate an inlined version of it.

foreign_procs with one, and add a new field describing the extra
arguments that may be inserted by table_gen.m.
Add utility predicates for processing the arguments of foreign_procs.
Change the order of some existing groups of declarations make it
more logical.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Extend the data structures recording the structure of tabling tries
to allow the representation of trie steps for type_infos and
typeclass_infos.
runtime/mercury_tabling_macros.c:
Fix a bug regarding the tabling of typeclass_infos, which is now
required for a clean compile.

compiler/ml_code_gen.m:
Modify the generation of code for foreign_procs to handle extra
arguments, and to conform to the new data structures for foreign_proc
arguments.
compiler/llds.m:
The tabling transformations can now generate significantly sized
foreign_procs bodies, which the LLDS code generator translates to
pragma_c instructions. Duplicating these by jump optimization
may lose more by worsening locality than it gains in avoiding jumps,
so we add an extra field to pragma_c instructions that tells jumpopt
not to duplicate code sequences containing such pragma_cs.
compiler/jumpopt.m:
Respect the new flag on pragma_cs.
compiler/goal_util.m:
Add a predicate to create foreign_procs with specified contents,
modelled on the existing predicate to create calls.
Change the order of the arguments of that existing predicate
to make it more logical.

Fix a bunch of problems with tabling that I identified in Uppsala.
Estimated hours taken: 32
Branches: main
Fix a bunch of problems with tabling that I identified in Uppsala. These fall
into two categories.
First, the tabling transformations we were using were dividing work up
too finely. This had three bad effects. First, it caused too much time to be
spent on transmitting data to and from library predicates. Second, it made the
transformations hard to document and hard to explain in a paper. Third, it
caused us to misidentify just what the various forms of tabling have in common,
and what forms of tabling work for what determinisms. To fix this problem,
this diff reorients table_builtin.m and table_gen.m from being divided
primarily by determinism to being divided by evaluation method.
Second, we weren't being careful in separating out the parts of the tabling
data structures that are needed only for debugging the tabling system itself.
The fix for this is to introduce a new grade flag, MR_MINIMAL_MODEL_DEBUG,
intended for use by implementors only, to govern whether the tabling data
structures include debug-only components. (If this flag weren't a grade flag,
the sizes of data structures created in files with different values of this
flag could be inconsistent, which is something you don't want when debugging
the complex code of the tabling infrastructure.)
compiler/table_gen.m:
Reorganize the simple (loopcheck and memo) tabling transformations
completely. Instead of separate transformations for model_det and
model_semi predicates, have separate transformations for loopcheck
and memo predicates, since this makes it easier to see (and to ensure)
that the transformation follows the required scheme. Instead of
generating nested if-then-elses, generate switches when possible.
For model_semi loopcheck and memo predicates, generate Mercury code
that obeys our scope rules by not binding output variables in the
condition of the one remaining if-then-else.
Finetune the minimal model tabling transformation by combining some
operations where this improves clarity and performance.
Order the transformation predicates logically, and move the
documentation of each form of tabling next to the code implementing
that form of tabling.
Attach call_table_gen markers to the setup goals that now all
loopcheck, memo and minimal model tabled predicates have,
to avoid having to special case the last lookup goal, and to avoid
having to have separate code for lookups in call tables versus answer
tables.
Generate unique and more meaningful variable names. Change some
predicate names to be more meaningful, both here and in the
transformed code.
Factor out some common code, e.g. for generating lookup goals,
for generating instmap_deltas and for attaching hide_debug_event
markers to goals.
Report errors in cases where the arguments of a tabled predicate
aren't completely input or output.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Be more strict about the determinisms of tabled predicates; permit
only the determinisms we really support in all cases, and do not
permit the ones that may happen to work in some cases.
Conform to the change of the name of a builtin.
compiler/det_report.m:
Improve the error message for cases when the determinism is
incompatible with the selected tabling mechanism.
compiler/compile_target_code.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
compiler/options.m:
Handle the new grade component.
library/private_builtin.m:
Provide a semipure analog of the imp predicate, a call to which makes
predicates semipure rather than impure, for use in table_builtin.m.
library/table_builtin.m:
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h:
Change the tabling primitives in the ways required by the changes to
the tabling transformations.
Group the primitives by the tabling methods they support, and change
their names to reflect this.
Change the implementation of each of the affected predicates to be
nothing more than the invocation of a macro defined in the new header
file runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h. The objective of this change
is to make it possible for table_gen.m to replace sequences of calls
to predicates in table_builtin.m with a single extended foreign_proc
goal whose body just invokes the corresponding macros in sequence.
That change should improve performance by allowing the variables
that flow from one tabling primitive to another to stay in x86
registers, instead of being copied to and from Mercury abstract
machines registers, which on the x86 aren't real machine registers.
Benchmarking in Uppsala verified that this is a major cost.
Mark the foreign types used for tabling as can_pass_as_mercury_type;
this was the intended use of that assertion. Make them private to the
module, since the rest of the compiler can now handle this.
Delete the implementations of the predicates for duplicate checking
and for returning answers for completed subgoals. Profiling with gprof
has shown their performance to be critical to the performance of
minimal model tabling overall, and even with our recent changes,
the compiler still can't create optimal C code for them. They are
now implemented with handwritten code in mercury_minimal_model.c.
library/term.m:
Add two utility predicates for use by table_gen.m.
library/Mmakefile:
Since much of the implementation of table_builtin.m is now in
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h, make its object files depend
on that header file.
runtime/mercury_conf_params.h:
runtime/mercury_grade.h:
Include MR_MINIMAL_MODEL_DEBUG when computing the grade.
runtime/mercury_minimal_model.[ch]:
Add handwritten code to implement the predicates declared as external
in table_builtin.m.
Conform to the new names of the suspension and completion predicates.
Conform to the presence of debugging fields in tabling data structures
only if MR_MINIMAL_MODEL_DEBUG is defined.
Collect a lot more statistics than before.
Reorder some functions.
Instead of saving the whole generator stack each time, which the new
statistics showed to have O(n^2) behavior on some benchmarks, save only
the segment we need to save.
runtime/mercury_tabling.h:
Conform to the fact that loopcheck and memo predicates now have
separate sets of status values, and import mercury_tabling_preds.h.
runtime/mercury_tabling.c:
runtime/mercury_hash_lookup_or_add_body.h:
Move a huge macro out of mercury_tabling.c to the new file
mercury_hash_lookup_or_add_body.h for ease of editing, and modify it to
gather more statistics.
Make the statistics report easier to read.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Mention mercury_tabling_preds.h and mercury_hash_lookup_or_add_body.h.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.h:
Provide a mechanism (--tabling-statistics in MERCURY_OPTIONS)
that causes the runtime to print tabling statistics at the ends of
executions, for use in benchmarking.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document --tabling-statistics. (Minimal model tabling is not yet
stable enough to be documented, which is why .dmm isn't documented
either.)

Conform to changes in the runtime.
tests/debugger/*.m:
Avoid now invalid combinations of determinism and evaluation method.
tests/debugger/*.exp:
Conform to new goal paths in procedures transformed by tabling.
tests/tabling/*.m:
For tests which had predicate whose determinisms isn't compatible
with the evaluation method, change the determinism if possible,
and the evaluation method otherwise, if either is possible.
Bring these tests up to date with our coding guidelines, since they
may now appear in papers.

test case failures.

Test that we get the expected error message for an invalid combination
of determinism and evaluation method. The new test invalid/loopcheck.m
is the old test tabling/loopcheck.m.
tests/valid/Mmakefile:
Use a more general pattern to test for minimal model grades,
now that we also use .dmm as a grade component.

Change the way we attach the call_table_gen feature to the goal that computes
Estimated hours taken: 3 Branches: main Change the way we attach the call_table_gen feature to the goal that computes the node at the tip of the call table. We still generate a conjunction of lookup goals, one for each input argument. However, instead of attaching the feature to the conjunction and wrapping the conjunction in a cannot_remove some() goal to protect the conjunction against flattening (since flattening would remove the feature), we now simply attach the feature to the rightmost lookup goal, the one that actually computes the call table tip node. Since this goal has an output that is needed, it cannot be optimized away, and optimizations cannot transform it either, because it is a primitive (a call to a procedure designed by foreign_proc). Getting rid of the some() goals avoids redundant pushes and pops on the cut stack in minimal model grades. compiler/table_gen.m: Change the tabling transformation along the lines described above. tests/debugger/print_table.exp: tests/debugger/retry.exp: Update the expected output to show goal paths in which the conjunction of lookup goals is flattened out. |

Extend the information we record about procedures when debugging is enabled
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main (for now, after more testing, on release branch too)
Extend the information we record about procedures when debugging is enabled
to include information about the tabling transformation, if the procedure
in question is tabled. This is useful to developers in debugging the tabling
mechanism, and can be useful to general users by helping them understand the
space (and hence time) costs of tabling.
Add a new mdb command "table" that uses this information to print
programmer-selected subsets of the tables of a tabled procedure.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Generalize the existing field in procedures that used to hold
information about I/O tabling to contain information about tabling
in general, including forms other than I/O tabling.
compiler/continuation_info.m:
compiler/code_gen.m:
compiler/stack_layout.m:
Conform to the changes in hlds_pred.m.
compiler/layout.m:
Provide Mercury parallels for the new data structures in
mercury_stack_layout.h.
compiler/layout_out.m:
Generate the new data structures in mercury_stack_layout.h.
compiler/table_gen.m:
Generate the new data structures in hlds_pred.m.
compiler/llds_common.m:
compiler/opt_debug.m:
Conform to the changes in layout.m
compiler/llds_out.m:
Abstract out existing code into a new procedure to make it available
to layout_out.m.
Make tabling pointer variables their natural type.
compiler/modules.m:
Fix an old bug: implicitly import table_builtin.m in .mm grades.
doc/mdb_categories:
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document the new mdb command "table".
runtime/mercury_types.h:
Move some type definitions here from mercury_tabling.h and
mercury_stack_layout.h. This was necessary to avoid problems with
circular #includes, in which a.h #includes b.h to get access to a
definition, but b.h #includes a.h, which is prevented by the macro
guarding against duplicate definition, which causes syntax errors
in the rest of b.h because the rest of b.h depends on typedefs in
a.h that occur in a.h *after* the #include of b.h.
runtime/mercury_label.h:
Adjust the list of #includes after the change to mercury_types.h.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Extend the debugging data structures with constructs that describe
the call tables, answer tables and answer blocks of tabled procedures.
Delete typedefs that are now in mercury_types.h.
runtime/mercury_tabling.[ch]:
Add new functions to allow lookups without insertions in hash tables
containing ints, floats and strings.
Add new functions to return the entire contents of these hash tables.
Change to four-space indentation where this wasn't done previously.
runtime/mercury_grade.h:
Increment the binary compatbility version number, partially to
account for the change to mercury_stack_layout.h in this diff, but
mostly to account for all the other diffs to mercury_stack_layout.h
since the last released version.
trace/mercury_trace_tables.[ch]:
Rename MR_print_proc_id_for_debugger as MR_print_proc_id_and_nl,
since this better describes what the function does.
trace/mercury_trace_util.[ch]:
Add a new function MR_trace_is_integer that reads in signed integers.
Rename MR_trace_is_number as MR_trace_is_natural_number, since the
former would now be ambiguous.
Add a new function MR_trace_is_float that reads in floating point
values.
library/string.m:
Document that MR_trace_is_float uses the same logic as
MR_trace_is_float.
trace/mercury_trace_browse.c:
trace/mercury_trace_vars.c:
Update calls to MR_trace_is_number.
trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
Implement the new mdb command "table".
Update calls to MR_trace_is_number and to
MR_print_proc_id_for_debugger.
tests/debugger/print_table.{m,inp,exp}:
New test case to test the new mdb command.
tests/debugger/Mmakefile:
Enable the new test case.
Disable the sensitive test cases in .mm grades.
tests/debugger/completion.exp:
Update the expected output to include the new mdb command.
tests/debugger/mdb_command_test.inp:
Update this automatically generated file to include the new mdb
command.
