Pack subword-sized arguments next to a remote sectag.
compiler/du_type_layout.m:
If the --allow-packing-remote-sectag option is set, then try to pack
an initial subsequence of subword-sized arguments next to remote sectags.
To allow the polymorphism transformation to put the type_infos and/or
typeclass_infos it adds to a function symbol's argument list at the
*front* of that argument list, pack arguments next to remote sectags
only in function symbols that won't have any such extra arguments
added to them.
Do not write all new code for the new optimization; instead, generalize
the code that already does a very similar job for packing args next to
local sectags.
Delete the code we used to have that picked the packed representation
over the base unpacked representation only if it reduced the
"rounded-to-even" number of words. A case could be made for its usefulness,
but in the presence of the new optimization the extra code complexity
it requires is not worth it (in my opinion).
Extend the code that informs users about possible argument order
rearrangements that yield better packing to take packing next to sectags
into account.
compiler/hlds_data.m:
Provide a representation for cons_tags that use the new optimization.
Instead of adding a new cons_tag, we do this by replacing several old
cons_tags that all represent pointers to memory cells with a single
cons_tag named remote_args_tag with an argument that selects among
the old cons_tags being replaced, and adding a new alternative inside
this new type. The new alternative is remote_args_shared with a
remote_sectag whose size is rsectag_subword(...).
Instead of representing the value of the "data" field in classes
on the Java and C# backends as a strange kind of secondary tag
that is added to a memory cell by a class constructor instead of
having to be explicitly added to the front of the argument vector
by the code of a unification, represent it more directly as separate
kind of remote_args_tag. Continuing to treat it as a sectag would have
been very confusing to readers of the code of ml_unify_gen_*.m in the
presence of the new optimization.
Replacing several cons_tags that were usually treated similarly with
one cons_tag simplifies many switches. Instead of an switch with that
branches to the same switch arm for single_functor_tag, unshared_tag
and shared_remote_tag, and then switches on these three tags again
to get e.g. the primary tag of each, the new code of the switch arm
is executed for just cons_tag value (remote_args_tag), and switches
on the various kinds of remote args tags only when it needs to.
In is also more natural to pass around the argument of remote_args_tag
than to pass around a variable of type cons_tag that can be bound to only
single_functor_tag, unshared_tag or shared_remote_tag.
Add an XXX about possible further steps along these lines, such as
making a new cons_tag named something like "user_const_tag" represent
all user-visible constants.

compiler/ml_unify_gen_util.m:
Implement X = f(Yi) unifications where f uses the new representation,
i.e. some of its arguments are stored next to a remote sectag.
Some of the Yi are stored in a tagword (a word that also contains a tag,
in this case the remote secondary tag), while some are stored in other
words in a memory cell. This means that such unifications have similarities
both to unifications involving arguments being packed next to local
sectags, and to unifications involving ordinary arguments in memory cells.
Therefore wherever possible, their implemenation uses suitably generalized
versions of existing code that did those two jobs for two separate kinds of
cons_tags.
Making such generalizations possible in some cases required shifting the
boundary between predicates, moving work from a caller to a callee
or vice versa.
In unify_gen_deconstruct.m, stop using uni_vals to represent *either* a var
*or* a word in a memory cell. While this enabled us to factor out some
common code, the predicate boundaries it lead to are unsuitable for the
generalizations we now need.
Consistently use unsigned ints to represent both the whole and the parts
of words containing packed arguments (and maybe sectags), except when
comparing ptag constants with the result of applying the "tag" unop
to a word, (since that unop returns an int, at least for now).
In a few cases, avoid the recomputation of some information that we
already know. The motivation is not efficiency, since the recomputation
we avoid is usually cheap, but the simplification of the code's correctness
argument.
Use more consistent terminology in things such as variable names.
Note the possibility of further future improvements in several places.

runtime/mercury_ml_arg_body.h:
runtime/mercury_ml_deconstruct_body.h:
runtime/mercury_ml_functor_body.h:
These modules collectively implement the predicates in deconstruct.m
in the library, and provide access to its functionality to other C code,
e.g. in the debugger. Update these to be able to handle terms with the
new data representation optimization.
This update requires a significant change in the distribution of work
between these files for the predicates deconstruct.deconstruct and
deconstruct.limited_deconstruct. We used to have mercury_ml_expand_body.h
fill in the fields of their expand_info structures (whose types are
defined in mercury_deconstruct.h) with pointers to three vectors:
(a) a vector of arg_locns with one element per argument, with a NULL
pointer being equivalent to a vector with a given element in every slot;
(b) a vector of type_infos with one element per argument, constructed
dynamically (and later freed) if necessary; and (c) a vector of argument
words. Once upon a time, before double-word and sub-word arguments,
vector (c) also had one word per argument, but that hasn't been true
for a while; we added vector (a) help the consumers of the expand_info
decode the difference. The consumers of this info always used these
vectors to build up a Mercury term containing a list of univs,
with one univ for each argument.
This structure could be stretched to handle function symbols that store
*all* their arguments in a tagword next to a local sectag, but I found
that stretching it to cover function symbols that have *some* of their
arguments packed next to a remote sectag and *some other* of their
arguments in a memory cell as usual would have required a well-nigh
incomprehensibly complex, and therefore almost undebuggable, interface
between mercury_ml_expand_body.h and the other files above. This diff
therefore changes the interface to have mercury_ml_expand_body.h
build the list of univs directly. This make its code relatively simple
and self-contained, and it should be somewhat faster then the old code
as well, since it never needs to allocate, fill in and then free
vectors of type_infos (each such typeinfo now gets put into a univ
as soon as it is constructed). The downside is that if we ever wanted
to get all the arguments at once for a purpose other than constructing
a list of univs from them, it would nevertheless require constructing
that list of univs anyway as an intermediate data structure. I don't see
this downside is significant, because (a) I don't think such a use case
is very likely, and (b) even if one arises, debuggable but a bit slow
is probably preferable to faster but very hard to debug.
Reduce the level of indentation of some of these files to make the code
easier to edit. Do this by
- not adding an indent level from switch statements to their cases; and
- not adding an indent level when a case in a switch has a local block.
Move the break or return ending a case inside that case's block,
if it has one.

Make a test case output more readable.
tests/hard_coded/deconstruct_arg.m:
The (bigger) expected output file of this test was 826 lines,
much of which was very repetitive. This made its correctness hard
to assess. Fix this by
- printing the term being tested just once;
- printing the results of individual argument access tests only they
succeed, printing only a single summary line for all the argument
access tests that did not succeed;
- omitting even the summary line for tests on constants, for which
having them all fail is the natural expectation;
- likewise, not printing anything for the full deconstruct tests
on constants if their output is exactly one would expect from
just the functor access test.
Also, print the results of the limited and unlimited deconstruct tests
using the same formatting, to make it easy to see whether they are
the same.

Fixes for deconstruct.functor and io.write.
Fix two problems with deconstruct.functor/4 and characters.
1. Control characters were not being octal escaped as they are by
io.write etc.
2. The higher bytes of multibyte characters were being discarded.
Note that as part of the above fix deconstruct.functor/4 will now abort if
called with a surrogate code point.
Fix problem with io.write (and related predicates) where characters were
being octal escaped even though a more specific escape character existed
(e.g. \r or \a).

Pack sub-word-sized ints and dummies in terms.
Previously, the only situation in which we could pack two or more arguments
of a term into a single word was when all those arguments are enums. This diff
changes that, so that the arguments can also be sub-word-sized integers
(signed or unsigned), or values of dummy types (which occupy zero bits).
This diff also records, for each argument of a function symbol, not just
whether, and if yes, how it is packed into a word, but also at *what offset*
that word is in the term's heap cell. It is more economical to compute this
once, when the representation of the type is being decided, than to compute
it over and over again when terms with that function symbol are being
constructed or deconstructed. However, for a transition period, we compute
these offsets at *both* times, to check the consistency of the new algorithm
for computing offsets that is run at "decide representation time" with
the old algorithms run at "generate code for a unification time".
compiler/du_type_layout.m:
Make the changes described above: pack sub-word-sized integers and
dummy values into argument words, if possible, and if the relevant
new option allows it. These options are temporary. If we find no problems
with the new packing algorithm in a few weeks, we should be able to
delete them.
Allow 64 bit ints and uints to be stored in unboxed in two words
on 32 bit platforms, if the relevant new option allows it. Support
for this is not yet complete, but it makes sense to implement the
RTTI changes for both this change and one described in the above
paragraph together.
For each packed argument, record not just its width, its shift and
the mask, but also the number of bits the argument takes. Previously,
we computed this on demand from the mask, but there is no real need
for that when simply storing this info is so cheap.
For all arguments, packed or not, record its offset, relative to both
the start of the arguments, and the start of the memory cell. (The two
are different if the arguments are preceded by either a remote secondary
tag, the typeinfos and/or typeclass_infos describing some existentially
typed arguments, or both.) The reason for this is given at the top.
Centralize the decision of the parameters of packing in one predicate.
If the option --inform-suboptimal-packing is given, print an informational
message whenever the code deciding type representations finds that
reordering the arguments of a function symbol would allow it to pack
the arguments of that function symbol into less space.
compiler/options.m:
Add the option --allow-packing-ints which controls whether
du_type_layout.m will attempt to pack {int,uint}{8,16,32} arguments
alongside enum arguments.
Add the option --allow-packing-dummies which controls whether
du_type_layout.m will optimize away (in other words, represent in 0 bits)
arguments of dummy types.
Add the option --allow-double-word-ints which controls whether
du_type_layout.m will store arguments of the types int64 and uint64
unboxed in two words on 32 bit platforms, the way it currently stores
double precision floats.
All three those options are off by default, which preserves binary
compatibility with existing code. However, the first two are ready
to be switched on (the third is not).
All three options are intended to be present in the compiler
only until these changes are tested. Once we deem them sufficiently
tested, I will modify the compiler to always do the packing they control,
at which point we can delete these options. This is why they are not
documented.
Add the option --inform-suboptimal-packing, whose meaning is described
above.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document --inform-suboptimal-packing.
compiler/prog_data.m:
For each argument of a function symbol in a type definition, use
a new type called arg_pos_width to record the extra information
mentioned above in (offsets for all arguments, and number of bits
for packed arguments).
For each function symbol that has some existential type constraints,
record the extra information mentioned for parse_type_defn.m below.
compiler/hlds_data.m:
Include the position, as well as the width, in the representation
of the arguments of function symbols.
Previously, we used the integer 0 as a tag for dummies. Add a tag to
represent dummy values, since this gives more information to any code
that sees that tag.
compiler/ml_unify_gen.m:
compiler/unify_gen.m:
Handle the packing of dummy values, and of sub-word-sized ints and uints.
Compare the cell offset of each argument computed using existing
algorithms here with the cell offset recorded in the argument's
representation, and abort if they are different.
In some cases, restructure code a bit to make it possible.
For example, for tuples and closures, this means that instead of
simply recording that each tuple argument or closure element
is a full word, we must record its correct offset as well.
Handle the new dummy_tag.
Add prelim (not yet finished) support for double-word int64s/uint64s
on 32 bit platforms.
When packing the values of two or more variables (or constants) into a
single word in a memory cell, optimize away operations that are no-ops,
such as shifting anything by zero bits, shifting the constant zero
by any number of bits, and ORing anything with zero. This makes the
generated code easier to read. It is probably also faster for us
to do it here than to write out a bigger expression, have the C compiler
read in the bigger expression, and then later make the same optimization.
In ml_unify_gen.m, avoid the unnecessary use of a list of the argument
variables' types separate from the list of the argument variables
themselves; just look up the type of each argument variable when it is
processed.
compiler/add_special_pred.m:
When creating special (unify and compare) predicates for tuples,
include the offsets in the representation of their arguments.
Delete an unused predicate.
compiler/llds.m:
Add a new way to create an rval: a cast. We use it to implement
the extraction of signed sub-word-sized integers from packed argument
words in terms. Masking the right N bits out of the packed word
leaves the other 32-N or 64-N bits as zeroes; a cast to int8_t,
int16_t or int32_t will copy the sign bit to these bits.
Likewise, when we pack signed int{8,16,32} values into words,
we cast them to their unsigned versions to throw away any sign-extension
bits in their original word-sized representations.
No similar change is needed for the MLDS, since that already had
a mechanism for casts.
compiler/mlds.m:
Note a potential simplification in the MLDS.
compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
Add functions to return the Mercury representation of the int64
and uint64 types.
compiler/foreign.m:
Export a specialized version of an existing predicate, to allow
ml_unify_gen.m to avoid the costs of the more general version.
compiler/hlds_out_module.m:
Always print the representations of all arguments, since the
inclusion of position information in those representation means that
the representations of even all-full-word-argument terms are of potential
interest when debugging term representations.
compiler/lco.m:
Do not try to apply LCO to arguments of dummy types. (We could optimize
them differently, by filling them in before they are "computed", but
that is a separate optimization, which is of *very* low priority.)
compiler/liveness.m:
Do not include variables of dummy types in resume points.
The reason for this is that the code that establishes a resume point
returns, for each such variable, a list of *lvals* where that variable
can be found. The new code in unify_gen.m will optimize away assignments
to values of dummy types, so there is *no* lval where they can be found.
We could allocate one, but doing so would be a pessimization. Instead,
we simply don't save and restore such values. When their value (which is
always 0) is needed, we can create them out of thin air.
compiler/ml_global_data.m:
Include the target language in the ml_global_data structure, to prevent
some of its users having to look it up in the module_info.
Add notes about the specializing the implementation of arrays of
int64s/uint64s on 32 bit platforms.
compiler/check_typeclass.m:
compiler/ml_type_gen.m:
Add sanity checks of the new precomputed fields of exist_constraints.
Conform to the changes above.
compiler/mlds_to_c.m:
Add prelim (not yet finished) support for double-word int64s/uint64s
on 32 bit platforms.
Add notes about possible optimizations.
compiler/parse_type_defn.m:
When a function symbol in a type definition contains existential
arguments, precompute and store the set of constrained and unconstrained
type variables. The code in du_type_layout.m needs this information
to compute the number of slots occupied by typeinfos and typeclass_infos
in memory cells for this function symbol, and several other places
in the compiler do too. It is easier and faster to compute this
information just once, and this is the earliest time what that can be done.
compiler/type_ctor_info.m:
Use the prerecorded information about existential types to simplify
the code here
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Add an XXX about possibly using the extra info we now record in
exist_constraints to simplify the job of polymorphism.m.
compiler/pragma_c_gen.m:
compiler/var_locn.m:
Create the values of dummy variables from scratch, if needed.
compiler/rtti.m:
Replace a bool with a bespoke type.
compiler/rtti_out.m:
compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m:
When generating RTTI information for the LLDS and MLDS backends
respectively, record new kinds of arguments as needing special
treatment. These are int64s and uint64s stored unboxed in two words
on 32 bit platforms, {int,uint}{8,16,32} values packed into words,
and dummy arguments. Each of these has a special code: its own negative
negative value in the num_bits field of the argument.
Generate slightly better formatted output.

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. compiler/options.m: compiler/handle_options.m: Always enable float registers in low-level C grades when floats are wider than a word. compiler/make_hlds_passes.m: Always allow double word floats to be stored unboxed in cells on C grades. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Add an extra field to `generic_call' which gives the register class to use for each argument. This is set by the float_regs pass. compiler/prog_data.m: Add an extra field to `pred_inst_info' which records the register class to use for each argument. This is set by the float_regs pass. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Add a field to `proc_sub_info' which lists the headvars which must be passed via regular registers despite their types. Add a field to `pred_sub_info' to record the original unsubstituted argument types for instance method predicates. compiler/check_typeclass.m: In the pred_info of an instance method predicate, record the original argument types before substituting the type variables for the instance. compiler/float_regs.m: compiler/transform_hlds.m: Add the new HLDS pass. compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m: Run the new pass if float registers are enabled. compiler/lambda.m: Export the predicate to produce a predicate from a lambda. This is reused by float_regs.m to create wrapper closures. Add an argument to `expand_lambda' to set the reg_r_headvars field on the newly created procedure. Delete some unused fields from `lambda_info'. compiler/arg_info.m: Make `generate_proc_arg_info' no longer always use regular registers for calls to exported procedures. Do always use regular registers for class methods calls. Add a version of `make_arg_infos' which takes an explicit list of argument registers. Rename the previous version. Add `generic_call_arg_reg_types' to return the argument registers for a generic call. Add a version of `compute_in_and_out_vars' which additionally separates arguments for float and regular registers. compiler/call_gen.m: Use float registers for argument passing in higher-order calls, as directed by the new field in `generic_call'. compiler/code_util.m: Add a function to encode the number of regular and float register arguments when making a higher-order call. compiler/llds.m: Say that the `do_call_closure_N' functions only work for zero float register arguments. compiler/follow_vars.m: compiler/interval.m: Account for the use of float registers by generic call goals in these passes. compiler/unify_gen.m: 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 is a float *and* is passed via a regular register, when floats are normally passed via float registers. Instead, give it the type_info for `private_builtin.float_box'. compiler/builtin_lib_types.m: Add function to return the type of `private_builtin.float_box/0'. compiler/hlds_out_goal.m: compiler/hlds_out_pred.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Dump the new fields added to `generic_call', `pred_inst_info' and `proc_sub_info'. compiler/prog_type.m: Add helper predicate. compiler/*.m: Conform to changes. library/private_builtin.m: Add a type `float_box'. runtime/mercury_ho_call.h: Describe the modified closure representation.

Add macros to unpack the encoded field. runtime/mercury_ho_call.c: Update the description of how higher-order calls work. Update code which extracts closure arguments to take account the arguments being reordered in the hidden arguments vector. runtime/mercury_deep_copy.c: runtime/mercury_deep_copy_body.h: runtime/mercury_layout_util.c: runtime/mercury_ml_expand_body.h: Update code which extracts closure arguments to take account the arguments being reordered in the hidden arguments vector. runtime/mercury_type_info.c: runtime/mercury_type_info.h: Add helper function. tools/make_spec_ho_call: Update the generated do_call_closure_* functions to place float register arguments. tests/hard_coded/Mercury.options: tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile: tests/hard_coded/ho_float_reg.exp: tests/hard_coded/ho_float_reg.m: Add new test case. tests/hard_coded/copy_pred.exp: tests/hard_coded/copy_pred.m: tests/hard_coded/deconstruct_arg.exp: tests/hard_coded/deconstruct_arg.exp2: tests/hard_coded/deconstruct_arg.m: Extend test cases with float arguments in closures. tests/debugger/higher_order.exp2: Add alternative output, changed due to closure wrapping. tests/hard_coded/ho_univ_to_type.m: Adjust test case so that the float_regs pass does not report errors about missing higher-order insts. compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Describe the new module.

Pack consecutive enumeration arguments in discriminated union types into a
Branches: main Pack consecutive enumeration arguments in discriminated union types into a single word to reduce cell sizes. Argument packing is only enabled on C back-ends with low-level data, and reordering arguments to improve opportunities for packing is not yet attempted. The RTTI implementations for other back-ends will need to be updated, but that is best left until after any argument reordering change. Modules which import abstract enumeration types are notified so by writing declarations of the form: :- type foo where type_is_abstract_enum(NumBits). into the interface file for the module which defines the type. compiler/prog_data.m: Add an `arg_width' argument to constructor arguments. Replace `is_solver_type' by `abstract_type_details', with an extra option for abstract exported enumeration types. compiler/handle_options.m: compiler/options.m: Add an internal option `--allow-argument-packing'. compiler/make_hlds_passes.m: Determine whether and how to pack enumeration arguments, updating the `arg_width' fields of constructor arguments before constructors are added to the HLDS. compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: compiler/modules.m: Write `where type_is_abstract_enum(NumBits)' to interface files for abstract exported enumeration types. compiler/prog_io_type_defn.m: Parse `where type_is_abstract_enum(NumBits)' attributes on type definitions. compiler/arg_pack.m: compiler/backend_libs.m: Add a new module. This mainly contains a predicate which packs rvals according to arg_widths, which is used by both LLDS and MLDS back-ends. compiler/ml_unify_gen.m: compiler/unify_gen.m: Take argument packing into account when generating code for constructions and deconstructions. Only a relatively small part of the compiler actually needs to understand argument packing. The rest works at the HLDS level with constructor arguments and variables, or at the LLDS and MLDS levels with structure fields. compiler/code_info.m: compiler/var_locn.m: Add assign_field_lval_expr_to_var and var_locn_assign_field_lval_expr_to_var. Allow more kinds of rvals in assign_cell_arg. I do not know why it was previously restricted, except that the other kinds of rvals were not encountered as cell arguments before. compiler/mlds.m: We can now rely on the compiler to pack arguments in the mlds_decl_flags type instead of doing it manually. A slight downside is that though the type is packed down to a single word cell, it will still incur a memory allocation per cell. However, I did not notice any difference in compiler speed. compiler/rtti.m: compiler/rtti_out.m: Add and output a new field for MR_DuFunctorDesc instances, which, if any arguments are packed, points to an array of MR_DuArgLocn. Each array element describes the offset in the cell at which the argument's value is held, and which bits of the word it occupies. In the more common case where no arguments are packed, the new field is simply null. compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m: Generate the new field to MR_DuFunctorDesc. compiler/structure_reuse.direct.choose_reuse.m: For now, prevent structure reuse reusing a dead cell which has a different constructor to the new cell. The code to determine whether a dead cell will hold the arguments of a new cell with a different constructor will need to be updated to account for argument packing. compiler/type_ctor_info.m: Bump RTTI version number. Conform to changes. compiler/add_type.m: compiler/check_typeclass.m: compiler/equiv_type.m: compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m: compiler/erl_rtti.m: compiler/hlds_data.m: compiler/hlds_out_module.m: compiler/intermod.m: compiler/make_tags.m: compiler/mlds_to_gcc.m: compiler/opt_debug.m: compiler/prog_type.m: compiler/recompilation.check.m: compiler/recompilation.version.m: compiler/special_pred.m: compiler/type_constraints.m: compiler/type_util.m: compiler/unify_proc.m: compiler/xml_documentation.m: Conform to changes. Reduce code duplication in classify_type_defn. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Clarify a comment. library/construct.m: Make `construct' pack arguments when necessary. Remove an old RTTI version number check as recommended in mercury_grade.h. library/store.m: Deal with packed arguments in this module. runtime/mercury_grade.h: Bump binary compatibility version number. runtime/mercury_type_info.c: runtime/mercury_type_info.h: Bump RTTI version number. Add MR_DuArgLocn structure definition. Add a macro to unpack an argument as described by MR_DuArgLocn.

Remove an old RTTI version number check as recommended in mercury_grade.h. runtime/mercury_deep_copy_body.h: Deal with packed arguments when copying. runtime/mercury_table_type_body.h: Deal with packed arguments in tabling. runtime/mercury_dotnet.cs.in: Add DuArgLocn field to DuFunctorDesc. Argument packing is not enabled for the C# back-end yet so this is unused. trace/mercury_trace_vars.c: Deal with packed arguments in MR_select_specified_subterm, use for the `hold' command. java/runtime/DuArgLocn.java: java/runtime/DuFunctorDesc.java: Add DuArgLocn field to DuFunctorDesc.

Get the purity check pass to not issue warnings about unnecessary purity
Estimated hours taken: 16 Branches: main Get the purity check pass to not issue warnings about unnecessary purity annotations on compiler-generated predicates. The problem I am addressing is that when an optimization such as type specialization creates a clone of a predicate, that predicate gets all the original predicate's annotations. During the creation of a .opt file, purity checking sees the clauses of the original predicate and knows that the annotation is not redundant, but doesn't know that about the copy, since it has no definition at all (it doesn't need one). The fix is to put into each pred_info an indication of where the predicate came from, and to never warn about unnecessary purity annotations of predicates that the programmer didn't write. This diff also uses the origin indication to record human-usable names of compiler-generated or compiler-transformed predicates in RTTI for use by the debugger. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Replace two fields in pred_infos, that say (a) whether the predicate is a special (unify/compare/index/init) predicate and (b) whether it is a type class method implementation, with an origin field saying where the predicate came from. This field has several alternatives, special preds and type class method implementation being only two. Make the predicates that create pred_infos take an argument specifing where the predicate comes from. Replace a copy of one of the old fields in rtti_proc_labels with the new one. Make the name of the existing function more descriptive. compiler/purity.m: Use the origin field to suppress unnecessary annotation warnings for compiler-generated predicates. compiler/layout_out.m: Use the origin field to generate more human-friendly names for predicates, instead of the existing linker-friendly names. The debugger doesn't insist on predicate names being unique, even within a module. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changed interface of hlds_pred.m. The most significant changes were for recording the origin of new predicates. In one case (dnf.m) it also involved passing the required information down to the place where the new predicates were created through the dnf_info tuple instead of separate arguments, and switching to state variable notation. tests/debugger/*.exp*: tests/debugger/declarative/*.exp*: tests/hard_coded/*.exp*: Update the expected outputs to expect human-friendly predicate names. |

Allow the debugger to print higher order values and typeinfos, mainly by
Estimated hours taken: 50
Branches: main
Allow the debugger to print higher order values and typeinfos, mainly by
making the committed choice modes of the predicates in deconstruct.m to
deconstruct higher order values and typeinfos. (The non committed choice
versions will continue to return only placeholders.)
Having the debugger print typeinfos is occasionally useful but more often
it is just distracting. This change therefore adds a new debugger command,
"print_optionals", that toggles the printing of optional values. For now,
the only optional values are typeinfos.
NEWS:
Mention the new capability and the new predicates in the library.
Mention the predicates added previously that allow the caller to
specify how non-canonical terms should be handled, since the change
in their semantics that we anticipated when they were added has now
happened, and their semantics should now be more stable.
browser/browser_info.m:
Use the predicates in the deconstruct.m instead of std_util,
to make the choice of noncanonical term method handling explicit.
browser/browse.m:
When writing small terms using io__write_univ, explicitly use
the same noncanonical term handling method as browser_info.m
library/io.m:
Add predicates to retrieve the current input and output streams.
Add versions of io__write_univ that specify the stream and maybe
the method of handling noncanonical terms.
Add a mode to io__write_list that allows the closure that prints the
list elements to be cc_multi.
All of these are for the new functionality in the browser.
runtime/mercury_ml_expand_body.h:
In committed choice contexts, deconstruct closures as if they were
ordinary terms, with the function symbol being the name of the
predicate/function and the arguments being the terms stored in
the closure.
In committed choice contexts, deconstruct typeinfos as if they were
ordinary terms, with the function symbol being the name of the type
constructor and the arguments being the type constructor's arguments.
runtime/mercury_type_info.[ch]:
Add a new function, MR_collapse_ctor_equivalences, for use by
mercury_ml_expand_body.h.
Delete a redundant function comment.
library/deconstruct.m:
Document the changes in the behavior of the predicates defined in this
module as a result of the change to mercury_ml_expand_body.h.
runtime/mercury_ho_call.h:
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Add prefixes on structure field names that did not have them.
browser/dl.m:
Add prefixes where needed by the changes to mercury_ho_call.h.
runtime/mercury_layout_util.[ch]:
Remove the first argument of MR_materialize_closure_typeinfos, since
its correct value is always the same part of the second argument.
runtime/mercury_deep_copy_body.h:
Do not pass the first argument of MR_materialize_closure_typeinfos.
Add field name prefixes where necessary.
compiler/modules.m:
The mercury_builtin module is no longer part of the library.
compiler/pd_debug.m:
compiler/rl_analyze.m:
Minor updates to avoid trying to take the address of io__write_list,
since it now has more than one mode.
runtime/mercury_init.h:
runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
trace/mercury_trace_vars.[ch]:
Add a parameter to MR_trace_browse_all_on_level that specifies
whether we should print values of type type_info.

Do not ignore predicates and functions anymore.
runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c:
trace/mercury_trace.c:
trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c:
trace/mercury_trace_external.c:
Pass the new parameter of MR_trace_browse_all_on_level.

Implement the "print_optionals" command.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document the "print_optionals" command.
tests/debugger/mdb_command_test.inp:
Test the documentation of "print_optionals".
tests/debugger/higher_order.{m,inp,exp,exp2}:
A new test case to exercise the ability to print higher order values.
Note that the format of the predicate names in the output should be
improved, but that is a separate change since doing it the right way
requires bootstrapping.
tests/debugger/Mmakefile:
Enable the new test case.
tests/debugger/nondet_stack.exp*:
Update the expected output to reflect the fact that nondet stack dumps,
being intended for debugging, include type_infos.
tests/debugger/tabled_read_decl.exp*:
Update the expected output to reflect the fact that for maximum
usefulness, the printing of I/O action atoms prints meaningful
type_infos.
tests/hard_coded/deconstruct_arg.*:
tests/hard_coded/write_reg1.*:
Expand these tests to check that we handle higher order values
correctly not just when canonicalizing but also in committed choice
modes.

Reorganize deconstruct.m so that each predicate that deconstructs terms has
Estimated hours taken: 12
Branches: main
Reorganize deconstruct.m so that each predicate that deconstructs terms has
three variants:
- One that aborts when attempting to deconstruct non-canonical terms.
- One that succeeds when attempting to deconstruct a term of a non-canonical
type, but returns a constant such as "<<noncanonical>>" for such
deconstructions. It still aborts when deconstructing a noncanonical term
of an ordinarily canonical type, which can happen with HAL if the term
is currently a variable.
- One that succeeds when attempting to deconstruct non-canonical terms of both
kinds, but whose determinism requires its caller to be in a committed choice
context.
Each of the predicates function, arg, named_arg, deconstruct and
limited_deconstruct now has an extra argument that selects one of the three
variants above. Each of these predicates now has three modes, one for each
value of this argument. The separate predicates with _cc at the ends of their
names are now superseded by one of these modes.
At the same time, I also eliminated the distinction between arg and argument.
Arg used to check if the returned argument was of the expected type, and fail
if it wasn't, while argument used to return a univ. The new arg now returns
a value of an existential type, which the caller can now typecheck or put
into a univ as it pleases.
The descriptions of the changes:
library/deconstruct.m:
Implement the changes discussed above. Work around a bug by making
the foreign_procs return a univ from which we later extract the value;
this inefficiency should be fixed later, when the typechecker has been
fixed to allow different clauses to return existentially typed values.
library/std_util.m:
Reimplement the forwarding predicates that call deconstruct.m in terms
of its new interface.
library/io.m:
Make use of the new functionality in deconstruct.m to offer versions
of io__print and io__write that allow the user to choose how to print
noncanonical terms.
library/private_builtin.m:
Export the `sorry' predicate for use in deconstruct.m and elsewhere.
runtime/mercury_deconstruct.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_ml_expand_body.h:
runtime/mercury_ml_arg_body.h:
runtime/mercury_ml_deconstruct_body.h:
runtime/mercury_ml_functor_body.h:
Implement the new functionality.
library/store.m:
extras/trailed_update/tr_store.m:
Conform to the new interfaces of some functions in the updated files
in the runtime.
tests/debugger/polymorphic_output.exp*:
Update for an updated error message.
tests/hard_coded/deconstruct_arg.{m,exp*}:
Update the test case to test the committed choice versions of the
deconstruction predicates as well as the usual versions. (The aborting
versions cannot all be tested in a single test case.)

Allow the RTTI routines and the debugger to treat arrays as other types.
Estimated hours taken: 4 + 4 in mail
Branches: main
Allow the RTTI routines and the debugger to treat arrays as other types.
The RTTI routines used to pretend that terms of array type had no arguments.
This led the browser to believe that their size was small, and handed them
over to io__write, which then printed the entire array. For large arrays,
this could take minutes. It also led the browser to believe that you can't
"cd" to an element of an array.
The RTTI routines now treat arrays mostly like they treat tuples, which fixes
both problems.
The debugger's prettyprinters do not yet use limited_deconstruct; that is
future work.
library/std_util.m:
Add a new predicate, limited_deconstruct, which usually does what
deconstruct does, but fails (and does not allocate any memory) if
the arity of the supplied term is beyond a given limit. With normal
terms, the memory allocated by deconstruct to hold the typeinfos
of the arguments is not a problem. However, arrays can have millions
of elements, and for them this *is* a problem. Programmers can avoid
this problem by using limited_deconstruct instead of deconstruct.
Make ML_arg (used by the arg and argument predicates) avoid the
construction of a typeinfo vector for all the arguments, for the same
reason.
Since we now need more variants of ML_expand than ever, and we don't
want the new, relatively rarely used functionality to slow down the old
functionality, create several variants of ML_expand, each specialized
to a given use, and choose between them at compile time, not run time.
This should actually speed up the old functionality.
runtime/mercury_ml_expand_body.h:
A new file which is included several times in library/std_util.m,
containing the bodies of the several variants of the old ML_expand.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Mention the new file.
browser/browse.m:
Avoid unlimited deconstructions when checking whether the term fits
within the size range we give to io__write.
Special case path resolution on terms of type array, because while
in the debugger we count arguments from one, array elements start at
index zero, and any other behavior would be misleading.
tests/hard_coded/deconstruct_arg.{m,exp}:
A new test case to check the various variants of ML_expand through
its callers, the predicates functor, argument, deconstruct and
limited_deconstruct, on all kinds of data types.
tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
Enable the new test case.
