Print two kinds of ambiguities only if asked for.
trace/mercury_trace_cmd_developer.c:
trace/mercury_trace_tables.[ch]:
Add two options to the mdb command "ambiguity".
Print ambiguities between function and predicate forms of the same
operation, such as list.length, only if the new option -b, or
--both-pred-and-func, is given.
Print ambiguities involving procedures that were created by type
specialization only if the new option -s, or --typespec is given.
(The -t option name was already taken.)
These changes remove from the ambiguity command's output
(some of) the parts that are not useful when one wants to eliminate
ambiguities by renaming.
Clarify a heading.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document the above changes.
runtime/mercury_proc_id.h:
Fix a field name that has become misleading.
MR_UserProcId_Structs have a field named MR_user_arity.
In this name, the "MR_user_" part is a prefix shared by the other
fields in that structure, to indicate that they are part of the id
of a user-defined procedure, as opposed to a compiler-created
unify, compare or index procedure. However, the arity it contains
is what the compiler now calls a pred_form_arity: it does not count
type_info and typeclass_info arguments added by polymorphism, but
it *does* count function return values for functions. This is now
misleading, because in the compiler, a user_arity does *not* count
function return values for functions.
Replace this field name with MR_user_pred_form_arity, which tells
readers that this arity is a pred_form_arity. The presence of the
"user" part of the name may still cause some confusion, but at least
that confusion should motivate readers to look up the field name,
whose comment should clarify things.

Expand this test case to test the new functionality.
The type specialized predicates are in a new helper module,
because this is the simplest way to avoid dead procedure elimination
deleting any of the predicates whose names we want to test for ambiguities.

Don't print value of errno in MR_fatal_error.
The majority of calls to MR_fatal_error do not follow an operation that sets errno, so printing out an error message unrelated to the reason for the fatal error will lead to confusion. It can also cause test failures if errno happens to be set to non-zero some time prior to an expected call to MR_fatal_error. Fixes bug #464. runtime/mercury_misc.c: Don't print value of errno in MR_fatal_error. runtime/mercury_context.c: runtime/mercury_thread.c: Pass strerror strings to MR_fatal_error where appropriate. runtime/mercury_memory_zones.c: runtime/mercury_memory_zones.h: Pass strerror strings to MR_fatal_error following failures of MR_protect_pages. Document that this assumes MR_protect_pages sets errno on error. Skip unnecessary call to sprintf before MR_fatal_error. runtime/mercury_deep_profiling.c: Skip unnecessary call to sprintf before MR_fatal_error. Reduce size of some buffers. runtime/mercury_overflow.c: runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c: Pass a fixed format string to MR_fatal_error just in case the message string may contain percentage signs. runtime/mercury_tabling.c: Skip unnecessary call to sprintf before MR_fatal_error. deep_profiler/timeout.m: library/thread.m: mdbcomp/shared_utilities.m: Pass strerror strings to MR_fatal_error where appropriate. trace/mercury_trace.c: Skip unnecessary call to sprintf before MR_fatal_error. trace/mercury_trace_external.c: Pass a fixed format string to MR_fatal_error just in case. |

Avoid some C compiler warnings in the trace directory.
trace/mercury_trace.h:
Avoid a warning from the C compiler about casting -1 to an enum
by adding bool next to the enum that says whether the enum is actually
defined, or is supposed to be set later (the latter is what the cast -1
meant).
trace/mercury_trace_cmds.h:
Rename the type MR_Trace_Command_Info to MR_TraceCmdTableEntry,
since this (a) says more about the values of the type, (b) avoids
confusion with the separate MR_TraceCmdInfo type (the one that
contained the enum mentioned above), and (c) avoids combining
underscores with CamelCase.

Avoid some warnings about switches on enums specifying -1 as a case.

Add float registers to the Mercury abstract machine, implemented as an
Branches: main Add float registers to the Mercury abstract machine, implemented as an array of MR_Float in the Mercury engine structure. Float registers are only useful if a Mercury `float' is wider than a word (i.e. when using double precision floats on 32-bit platforms) so we let them exist only then. In other cases floats may simply be passed via the regular registers, as before. Currently, higher order calls still require the use of the regular registers for all arguments. As all exported procedures are potentially the target of higher order calls, exported procedures must use only the regular registers for argument passing. This can lead to more (un)boxing than if floats were simply always boxed. Until this is solved, float registers must be enabled explicitly with the developer only option `--use-float-registers'. The other aspect of this change is using two consecutive stack slots to hold a single double variable. Without that, the benefit of passing unboxed floats via dedicated float registers would be largely eroded. compiler/options.m: Add developer option `--use-float-registers'. compiler/handle_options.m: Disable `--use-float-registers' if floats are not wider than words. compiler/make_hlds_passes.m: If `--use-float-registers' is in effect, enable a previous change that allows float constructor arguments to be stored unboxed in structures. compiler/hlds_llds.m: Move `reg_type' here from llds.m and `reg_f' option. Add stack slot width to `stack_slot' type. Add register type and stack slot width to `abs_locn' type. Remember next available float register in `abs_follow_vars'. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Add register type to `arg_loc' type. compiler/llds.m: Add a new kind of lval: double-width stack slots. These are used to hold double-precision floating point values only. Record setting of `--use-float-registers' in exprn_opts. Conform to addition of float registers and double stack slots. compiler/code_info.m: Make predicates take the register type as an argument, where it can no longer be assumed. Remember whether float registers are being used. Remember max float register for calls to MR_trace. Count double width stack slots as two slots. compiler/arg_info.m: Allocate float registers for procedure arguments when appropriate. Delete unused predicates. compiler/var_locn.m: Make predicates working with registers either take the register type as an argument, or handle both register types at once. Select float registers for variables when appropriate. compiler/call_gen.m: Explicitly use regular registers for all higher-order calls, which was implicit before. compiler/pragma_c_gen.m: Use float registers, when available, at the interface between Mercury code and C foreign_procs. compiler/export.m: Whether a float rval needs to be boxed/unboxed when assigned to/from a register depends on the register type. compiler/fact_table.m: Use float registers for arguments to predicates defined by fact tables. compiler/stack_alloc.m: Allocate two consecutive stack slots for float variables when appropriate. compiler/stack_layout.m: Represent double-width stack slots in procedure layout structures. Conform to changes. compiler/store_alloc.m: Allocate float registers (if they exist) for float variables. compiler/use_local_vars.m: Substitute float abstract machine registers with MR_Float local variables. compiler/llds_out_data.m: compiler/llds_out_instr.m: Output float registers and double stack slots. compiler/code_util.m: compiler/follow_vars.m: Count float registers separately from regular registers. compiler/layout.m: compiler/layout_out.m: compiler/trace_gen.m: Remember the max used float register for calls to MR_trace(). compiler/builtin_lib_types.m: Fix incorrect definition of float_type_ctor. compiler/bytecode_gen.m: compiler/continuation_info.m: compiler/disj_gen.m: compiler/dupelim.m: compiler/exprn_aux.m: compiler/global_data.m: compiler/hlds_out_goal.m: compiler/jumpopt.m: compiler/llds_to_x86_64.m: compiler/lookup_switch.m: compiler/opt_debug.m: compiler/opt_util.m: compiler/par_conj_gen.m: compiler/proc_gen.m: compiler/string_switch.m: compiler/tag_switch.m: compiler/tupling.m: compiler/x86_64_regs.m: Conform to changes. runtime/mercury_engine.h: Add an array of fake float "registers" to the Mercury engine structure, when MR_Float is wider than MR_Word. runtime/mercury_regs.h: Document float registers in the Mercury abstract machine. Add macros to access float registers in the Mercury engine. runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h: Add new MR_LongLval cases to represent double-width stack slots. MR_LONG_LVAL_TAGBITS had to be increased to accomodate the new cases, which increases the number of integers in [0, 2^MR_LONG_LVAL_TAGBITS) equal to 0 modulo 4. These are the new MR_LONG_LVAL_TYPE_CONS_n cases. Add max float register field to MR_ExecTrace. runtime/mercury_layout_util.c: runtime/mercury_layout_util.h: Extend MR_copy_regs_to_saved_regs and MR_copy_saved_regs_to_regs for float registers. Understand how to look up new kinds of MR_LongLval: MR_LONG_LVAL_TYPE_F (previously unused), MR_LONG_LVAL_TYPE_DOUBLE_STACKVAR, MR_LONG_LVAL_TYPE_DOUBLE_FRAMEVAR. Conform to the new MR_LONG_LVAL_TYPE_CONS_n cases. runtime/mercury_float.h: Delete redundant #ifdef. runtime/mercury_accurate_gc.c: runtime/mercury_agc_debug.c: Conform to changes (untested). trace/mercury_trace.c: trace/mercury_trace.h: trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c: trace/mercury_trace_external.c: trace/mercury_trace_internal.c: trace/mercury_trace_spy.c: trace/mercury_trace_vars.c: trace/mercury_trace_vars.h: Handle float registers in the trace subsystem.

Implement a new form of memory profiling, which tells the user what memory
Branches: main
Implement a new form of memory profiling, which tells the user what memory
is being retained during a program run. This is done by allocating an extra
word before each cell, which is used to "attribute" the cell to an
allocation site. The attribution, or "allocation id", is an address to an
MR_AllocSiteInfo structure generated by the Mercury compiler, giving the
procedure, filename and line number of the allocation, and the type
constructor and arity of the cell that it allocates.
The user must manually instrument the program with calls to
`benchmarking.report_memory_attribution', which forces a GC and summarises
the live objects on the heap using the attributions. The mprof tool is
extended with a new mode to parse and present that data.
Objects which are unattributed (e.g. by hand-written C code which hasn't
been updated) are still accounted for, but show up in profiles as "unknown".
Currently this profiling mode only works in conjunction with the Boehm
garbage collector, though in principle it can work with any memory allocator
for which we can access a list of the live objects. Since term size
profiling relies on the same technique of using an extra word per memory
cell, the two profiling modes are incompatible.
The output from `mprof -s' looks like this:
------ [1] some label ------
cells words cumul procedure / type (location)

Move all the frequently occurring layout structures and components of layout
Estimated hours taken: 40 Branches: main Move all the frequently occurring layout structures and components of layout structures into arrays where possible. By replacing N global variables holding individual layout structures or layout structure components with one global variable holding an array of them, we reduce the sizes of the symbol tables stored in object files, which should speed up both the C compiler and the linker. Measured on the modules of the library, mdbcomp and compiler directories compiled in grade asm_fast.gc.debug, this diff reduces the size of the generated C source files by 7.8%, the size of the generated object files by 10.4%, and the number of symbols in the symbol tables of those object files by a whopping 42.8%. (These improvements include, and are not on top of, the improvements in my previous similar diff.) runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h: Each label layout structure has information about the type and location of every variable that is live at that label. We store this information in three arrays: an array of pseudo-typeinfos giving the types of all these variables, and two arrays MR_ShortLvals and MR_LongLvals respectively giving their locations. (Most of the time, the location's encoded form fits into one byte (the MR_ShortLval) but sometimes it needs more bits (this is when we use MR_LongLval)). We used to store these three arrays, whose elements are different types, in a single occurrence-specific common structure, one after the other, with a cumbersome mechanism being required to access them. We now store them as segments of three separate arrays, of pseudo-typeinfos, MR_ShortLvals and MR_LongLvals respectively. This makes access simpler and faster (which will matter more to any accurate garbage collector than it does to the debugger). It also allows more scope for compression, since reusing an existing segment of one of the three arrays is easier than reusing an entire common structure, which would require the equivalent of exact matches on all three arrays. Since most label layout structures that have information about variables can encode the variables' locations using only MR_ShortLvals, create a version of the label layout structure type that omits the field used to record the whereabouts of the long location descriptors. Add macros now generated by the compiler to initialize layout structures. Simplify a one-field struct. runtime/mercury_grade.h: Increment the binary compatibility version number for debuggable executables, since .c and .o files from before and after the change to label layout structures are NOT compatible. runtime/mercury_type_info.h: Fix some binary-compatibility-related bit rot. runtime/mercury_misc.h: Move here the existing macros used by the compiler when generating references to layout arrays, and add new ones. runtime/mercury_goto.h: Delete the macros moved to mercury_misc.h. Conform to the changes in mercury_stack_layout.h. runtime/Mmakefile: Prevent the unnecessary rebuilding of mercury_conf.h. runtime/mercury_accurate_gc.c: runtime/mercury_agc_debug.c: runtime/mercury_layout_util.c: runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c: runtime/mercury_types.h: trace/mercury_trace.c: trace/mercury_trace_vars.c: Conform to the changes in mercury_stack_layout.h. runtime/mercury_wrapper.c: Improve the debug support a bit. runtime/mercury_engine.h: Fix style. compiler/layout.m: Make the change described at the top. Almost all layout structures are now in arrays. The only exceptions are those that occur rarely, and proc layouts, whose names need to be derivable from the name of the procedure itself. Instead of having a single type "layout_data" that can represent different kinds of single global variables (not array slots), have different kinds for different purposes. This makes the code clearer and allows traversals that do not have to skip over inapplicable kinds of layout structures. compiler/layout_out.m: Output the new arrays. compiler/stack_layout.m: Generate the new arrays. Previously, an individual term generated by stack_layout.m could represent several components of a layout structure, with the components separated by layout_out.m. We now do the separation in stack_layout.m itself, adding each component to the array to which it belongs. Instead of passing around a single stack_layout_info structure, pass around several smaller one. This is preferable, since I found out the hard way that including everything in one structure would give the structure 51 fields. Most parts of the module work with only one or two of these structures, which makes their role clearer. Cluster related predicates together. compiler/options.m: doc/user_guide.texi: Add an option that control whether stack_layout.m will attempt to compress the layout arrays that can meaningfully be comressed. compiler/llds.m: Remove the old distinction between a data_addr and a data_name, replacing both types with a single new one: data_id. Since different kinds of data_names were treated differently in many places, the distinction in types (which was intended to allow us to process data_addrs that wrapped data_names differently from other kinds of data_addrs) wasn't buying us anything anymore. The new data_id type allows for the possibility that the code generator wants to generate a reference to an address it does not know yet, because it is a slot in a layout array, and the slot has not been allocated yet. Add the information from which the new layout array structures will be generated to the LLDS. compiler/llds_out.m: Call layout_out.m to output the new layout arrays. Adapt the decl_id type to the replacement of data_addrs by data_ids. Don't both keeping track of the have-vs-have-not-declared status of structures that are always declared at the start. When writing out a data_addr, for some kinds of data_addr, llds_out.m would write out the name of the relevant variable, while for some other kinds, it would write out its address. This diff separates out those those things into separate predicates, each of which behaves consistently. compiler/mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m: Convey the intended contents of the new layout arrays from stack_layout.m to llds_out.m. compiler/continuation_info.m: Add a type required by the way we now generate proc_static structures for deep profiling. compiler/hlds_rtti.m: Add distinguishing prefixes to the field names of the rtti_proc_label type. compiler/code_info.m: compiler/code_util.m: compiler/erl_rtti.m: compiler/exprn_aux.m: compiler/global_data.m: compiler/ll_pseudo_type_info.m: compiler/ml_code_util.m: compiler/opt_debug.m: compiler/proc_gen.m: compiler/prog_rep.m: compiler/rtti_out.m: compiler/unify_gen.m: Conform to the changes above. tests/debugger/declarative/track_through_catch.exp: Expect procedures to be listed in the proper order. tests/EXPECT_FAIL_TESTS.asm_fast.gc.debug: tests/EXPECT_FAIL_TESTS.asm_fast.gc.profdeep: Add these files to ignore expected failues in these grades. |

Implement a new compiler option, --exec-trace-tail-rec, that preserves direct
Estimated hours taken: 30
Branches: main
Implement a new compiler option, --exec-trace-tail-rec, that preserves direct
tail recursion in det and semidet procedures even when debugging is enabled.
This should allow the debugging of programs that previously ran out of stack.
The problem arose because even a directly tail-recursive call had some code
after it: the code for the EXIT event, like this:
p:
incr_sp
fill in the usual debug slots
CALL EVENT
...
/* tail call */
move arguments to registers as usual
call p, return to p_ret
p_ret:
/* code to move output arguments to right registers is empty */
EXIT EVENT
decr_sp
return
If the new option is enabled, the compiler will now generate code like this:
p:
incr_sp
fill in the usual debug slots
fill in new "stack frame reuse count" slot with 0
CALL EVENT
p_1:
...
/* tail call */
move arguments to registers as usual
update the usual debug slots
increment the "stack frame reuse count" slot
TAILCALL EVENT
goto p_1
The new TAIL event takes place in the caller's stack frame, so that the local
variables of the caller are available. This includes the arguments of the
recursive call (though if they are unnamed variables, the debugger will not
show them). The TAIL event serves as a replacement for the CALL event
of the recursive invocation.

Fix a problem introduced in my previous change to the trace directory

Fix up conversion specifiers in the printf control strings in the trace directory. runtime/mercury_stack_trace.h: Define MR_FrameLimit, MR_SpecLineLimit and MR_AncestorLevel here rather than in the trace directory because the code in the runtime for stack tracing refers to them.

Fix up some places in the trace directory where there were (potential)
Estimated hours taken: 5
Branches: main
Fix up some places in the trace directory where there were (potential)
mismatches between the sizes of types used to represent natural numbers.
Much of the existing code in the trace directory assumed that
sizeof(int) == sizeof(MR_Unsigned), which is not true on our 64-bit
machines. Zoltan's recent change to MR_trace_is_natural_number() broke
that assumption in a lot of places. (I committed a workaround for that
yesterday.)
This diff addresses the above problem by changing the types of many of
things that represent natural numbers from int to MR_Unsigned.
This should make the trace code more robust on 64-bit machines and
help avoid a recurrence of problems like the above.
NOTE: this change does not change slot numbers into unsigned values since
they still use negative values as sentinels. I will address slot numbers
in as part of a separate change.
trace/mercury_trace.h:
Add typedefs for MR_Unsigned for several commonly used quantities
within the trace code. For I/O action numbers we just re-use
the type MR_IoActionNum from the runtime, rather than defining
a new typedef here.
trace/mercury_trace_tables.h:
Change the type of the `match_proc_max' and `match_proc_next' fields
of the MR_MatchesInfo structure into MR_Unsigned instead of int.
trace/mercury_trace_cmd_parameter.[ch]:
Change the type of the global variables, MR_scroll_{limit,next}
and MR_num_context_lines into MR_Unsigned instead of int.
trace/mercury_trace_util.[ch]:
Restore Zoltan's change that made the type of the second argument of
MR_trace_is_natural_number() into MR_Unsigned. The places that
caused this to break on 64-bit machines have now been fixed.
Update the documentation of MR_trace_is_natural_number();
Delete MR_trace_is_unsigned() since that now duplicates
MR_trace_is_natural_number().
Add a new function MR_trace_is_nonneg_int() which is similar
to the above functions except that it stores its result in
an int. (This is needed for handling slot numbers which are
still represented using ints.)
trace/mercury_trace_cmd_developer.c:
Refactor some code so that we don't need to use -1 as a sentinel
value.
trace/mercury_trace_cmd_help.c:
Use MR_trace_is_nonneg_int() instead of MR_trace_is_natural_number()
to handle slot numbers.

Implement breakpoints on user events. Users may specify an event set,
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main
Implement breakpoints on user events. Users may specify an event set,
an event name, both, or neither. Four forms of the mdb "break" command
create such breakpoints:
break [the usual options] user_event <event_name>
break [the usual options] user_event <event_set_name> <event_name>
break [the usual options] user_event_set
break [the usual options] user_event_set <event_set_name>
In addition, the command
break [the usual options] user_event
is also accepted, as a synonym for
break [the usual options] user_event_set
Since user events are not interface events or entry events, add a new, simple
ignore specification, which decrements the ignore count on every match of the
event.
Make the "break_print" mdb command consistent with the other command that
operates on existing breakpoints ("condition") by making it apply by default
to the most recently created breakpoint.
Make "condition" and "break_print" use the same option letter (-b) to introduce
the breakpoint number.
Fix a bug in the implementation of "break_print" that led to printing out
the selected variable, but not the selected *path* within the selected
variable. The reason was that we recorded what to print (variable spec plus
path) in a string, but that the process of using that record to print out
what was wanted destroyed the string (by putting a NULL between the variable
specification and the path), so that *later* uses of that string would find
an empty path. The fix is to record a var_spec/path pair in the print list.
Fix some slightly misleading output: when printing part of a variable, we
printed the name of the variable without any indication that the value printed
wasn't the whole value of the variable. We now print the path as well.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document the changes above.
Document the usage "break_print [options] none", which we have always
supported, but which was not documented.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:

trace/mercury_trace_cmd_breakpoint.c:

Implement data structures for keeping track of the new forms of
breakpoints, and add the necessary functions for manipulating them.
Update the function that checks whether the current event matches.
Factor some common code out of that function, as well as out of the
functions for adding new breakpoints.
Change the print list data structure as described above.
Add some utility functions.
Add MR_ prefixes to the names of structure fields that previously
lacked them.
trace/mercury_trace_cmd_misc.c:
Handle the new breakpoint types.
trace/mercury_trace_tables.c:
trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
We used to parse the event set descriptions in module layout structures
when the debugger was initialized (in mercury_trace_internal.c).
However, we delay registering all the modules until this is needed,
so at that time we don't yet *have* the list of module layout
structures, so we used to parse nothing. This diff moves the code
for doing the parsing to the time when the module layout structures
are registered (in mercury_trace_tables.c).
Don't test whether the module layout structure contains the fields
for user event descriptions, since that diff has been installed on
all our systems weeks ago.

Significantly improve the infrastructure for debugging such changes. compiler/table_gen.m: Complete the mmos transformation. compiler/proc_gen.m: Handle the special return requirements of mmos generators, which must return not to a caller (since each generator is the root of its own SLD tree), but to a consumer in another SLD tree that is waiting for an answer. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Provide a mechanism whereby table_gen.m can communicate to proc_gen.m the requirement for this special return. compiler/trace_gen.m: When generating events, include the port and the goal path in a comment.

This allows each context to have its own separate sequence of events. This capability depends not directly on the grade, but on the macro MR_EXEC_TRACE_INFO_IN_CONTEXT. For now, this is defined only in .mmos grades, but in future, it may be useful in other grades as well. runtime/mercury_conf_param.h: Define and document MR_EXEC_TRACE_INFO_IN_CONTEXT. runtime/mercury_mm_own_stacks.[ch]: runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h: Implement some predicates needed by the own stack transformation.

Fix a cut-and-paste bug (wrong macro name guarding the handwritten C module). runtime/Mmakefile: Rebuild only what needs to be rebuilt when mercury_tabling_preds.h changes. runtime/mercury_label.[ch]: Add a utility function for returning the name of an arbitrary label (internal or entry). Rename some fields to give them MR_ prefixes. Always define the functions for recording both entry and internal labels, even if they are not called from most modules, since they may be called from a few handwritten modules in the runtime. Rename a function to avoid a clash with the name of a macro, and thus allow the change to mercury_goto.h. runtime/mercury_goto.h: Fix a bug with MR_init_entry_an. This macro was supposed to always insert the entry label that is its argument into the entry table, but instead of calling the function it was meant to call, it called a macro that could be (and usually way) defined to expand to nothing. The fix is to call the function a different name than the macro, and to call the function, not the macro. runtime/mercury_wrapper.c: In own stack minimal model grades, create a main context separate from the current context, since the current context may be needed to hold a generator's state.

STEP always stops at the next event (without any test), even if it is in a different context (and possibly with a lower event number than the immediately previous event, since the event numbers in different contexts are not related). As before, GOTO always goes to the specified event number, but in .dmmos grades it can now be told that this event number should be matched only in a specified context. The specification is done by an extra argument specifying the short name of the context's generator; the ansence of such an argument means the main context. trace/mercury_trace_cmd_internal.c: In own stack grades, when the current context is that of a generator, print the subgoal the generator is working on before the event number, call depth, call sequence number and the rest of the event report.

Implement some of Mark's wish list for making user events more useful.
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main
Implement some of Mark's wish list for making user events more useful.
1. When executing "print *" in mdb, we used to print both the values of all
attributes and the values of all live variables. Since some attributes'
values were given directly by live variables, this lead to some things being
printed twice. This diff eliminates this duplication.
2. At user events, we now print the name of the event. Whether we print the
other stuff we also print at events (the predicate containing the event,
and its source location) is now controlled by a new mdb command,
"user_event_context".
3. We would like different solvers to be compilable independently of one
another. This means that neither solver's event set should depend on the
existence of the events needed by the other solvers. This diff therefore
eliminates the requirement that all modules of the program be compiled with
the same event set specification. Instead, a program may contain modules
that were compiled with different event sets. Each event set is named;
the new requirement is that different named event sets may coexist in the
program (each being used to compile some modules), but two event sets with
the same name must be identical in all other respects as well (we need this
requirement to prevent inconsistencies arising between different versions of
the same event set).
4. We now generate user events even from modules compiled with --trace shallow.
The problem here is that user events can occur in procedures that do not
get caller events and whose ancestors may not get caller events either.
Yet these procedures must still pass on debugger information such as call
sequence numbers and the call depth to the predicate with the user event.
This diff therefore decouples the generation of code for this basic debugger
infrastructure information from the generation of call events by inventing
two new trace levels, settable by the compiler only (i.e. not from the
command line). The trace level "basic_user" is for procedures containing a
user event whose trace level (in a shallow traced module) would otherwise be
"none". The trace level "basic" is for procedures not containing a user
event but which nevertheless may need to transmit information (e.g. depth)
to a user event. For the foreseeable future, this means that shallow traced
modules containing user events will have some debugging overhead compiled
into *all* their procedures.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Add a new field to MR_UserEvent structures, giving the HLDS number of
the variable representing each attribute.

Use the same technique to mark each procedure that contains parallel
conjunctions as containing parallel conjunctions, instead of marking
the predicate containing the procedure. (Switch detection may eliminate
arbitrary goals, including parallel conjunctions, from switch arms
that are unreachable due to initial insts, and in any case we want to
handle the procedures of a predicate independently from each other
after mode analysis.)
Also, change the code handling generic calls to switch on the generic

this, because if it did, then we must generate a proc layout structure
for it.
compiler/proc_gen.m:
Act on the information recorded by code_info.m.
Factor out the code for generating the call event and its layout
structure, since the conditions for generating this event have changed.

For each user event, record the id of the variables corresponding to
each argument of a user event.

for user events in shallow traced modules.
compiler/options.m:

The runtime had two different conventions for naming types.
Estimated hours taken: 2 Branches: main The runtime had two different conventions for naming types. One convention, used mostly in the debugger-related modules, added underscores between capitalized words; example: MR_Label_Layout. The other convention, used in most modules, used capitalized words without underscores (e.g. MR_TypeInfo). This diff standardizes on the second convention. It has no algorithmic changes, only renames of types. runtime/*.[ch]: trace/*.[ch]: compiler/*.m: library/*.m: mdbcomp/*.m: Effect the change described above. The only substantive change is that runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h used to define *two* types for trace levels: MR_TraceLevel and MR_Trace_Level, and this diff standardizes on just one (they had equivalent definitions). runtime/mercury_bootstrap.h: Add a #define from the old name to the new for all the changed type names that the installed compiler can put into .c files. We can delete these #defines some time after this diff has bootstrapped. slice/.mgnuc_opts: Restore the --no-mercury-stdlib-dir option, without which the slice directory won't compile after this change (because it looks for type names in the installed runtime header files, which define the old versions of type names). |

The objective of this diff is to switch from a table of solver events built
Estimated hours taken: 32
Branches: main
The objective of this diff is to switch from a table of solver events built
into the compiler (and eventually the debugger) into a table of events
defined by a file provided by the user to the compiler, which the compiler
then records in the executable for use by the debugger.
The current design, for speed of implementation, uses temporary files parsed
by a bison-generated parser. Since the compiler needs to be able to invoke
the parser even if it is compiled in a non-debug grade, the parser is in
a new library, the eventspec library, that is always linked into the Mercury
compiler and is always linked into any Mercury program with debugging enabled
(but is of course linked only once into a Mercury compiler which has debugging
enabled).
Modify the debugger to give it the ability to print the attributes of
user-defined events (for now, only the non-synthesized attributes).
Implement a new debugger command, "user", which goes to the next user-defined
event.
configure.in:
Require flex and and bison to be available.

layout structures.

Set this optimization from an environment variable (which may be
set by the mmc script) if the new option is not explicitly given.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Define the data structures for the compiler's representation of the
event set specification.
Move some definitions around to group them more logically.
compiler/hlds_module.m:
Include the event set specification as a new field in the module_info.
compiler/prog_event.m:
Add the code for invoking the parser in the eventspec library,
and for converting the simple term output by the parser to the
compiler own representation, which contains more information
(to wit, the types of the function attributes) and which has had
a whole bunch of semantic checks done on it (e.g. whether synthesized
attributes depend on themselves or on nonexistent attributes).
Provide a function to generate a canonicalized version of the event
specification file.
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/equiv_type.m:
Process event spec specifications as well as items, to module qualify
the names of the types of event arguments, and expanding out
equivalence types.
In equiv_type.m, rename some variables to make clear what kind of info
they represent.

Process the event set specification file if one has been selected:
read it in, module qualify it, expand its equivalence types, and add
to the module_info.

in event set specifications from a file, and to write them out as a
Mercury term in the form needed by the compiler.

If the module layouts being registered include event set
specifications, then check their consistency. Make the specification
and the consistency indication available to other modules.

Add a mechanism for growing the stacks on demand by adding new segments
Estimated hours taken: 20 Branches: main Add a mechanism for growing the stacks on demand by adding new segments to them. You can ask for the new mechanism via a new grade component, stseg (short for "stack segments"). The mechanism works by adding a test to each increment of a stack pointer (sp or maxfr). If the test indicates that we are about to run out of stack, we allocate a new stack segment, allocate a placeholder frame on the new segment, and then allocate the frame we wanted in the first place on top of the placeholder. We also override succip to make it point code that will (1) release the new segment when the newly created stack frame returns, and then (2) go to the place indicated by the original, overridden succip. For leaf procedures on the det stack, we optimize away the check of the stack pointer. We can do this because we reserve some space on each stack for the use of such stack frames. My intention is that doc/user_guide.texi and NEWS will be updated once we have used the feature ourselves for a while and it seems to be stable. runtime/mercury_grade.h: Add the new grade component. runtime/mercury_conf_param.h: Document the new grade component, and the option used to debug stack segments. runtime/mercury_context.[ch]: Add new fields to contexts to hold the list of previous segments of the det and nondet stacks. runtime/mercury_memory_zones.[ch]: Include a threshold in all zones, for use in stack segments. Set it when a zone is allocated. Restore the previous #ifdef'd out function MR_unget_zone, for use when freeing stack segments execution has fallen out of. runtime/mercury_debug.[ch]: When printing the offsets of pointers into the det and nondet stacks, print the number of the segment the pointer points into (unless it is the first, in which case we suppress this in the interest of brevity and simplicity). Make all the functions in this module take a FILE * as an input argument; don't print to stdout by default. runtime/mercury_stacks.[ch]: Modify the macros that allocate stack frames to invoke the code for adding new stack segments when we are about to run out of stack. Standardize on "nondet" over "nond" as the abbreviation referring to the nondet stack. Conform to the changes in mercury_debug.c. runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c: When traversing the stack, step over the placeholder stack frames at the bottoms of stack segments. Conform to the changes in mercury_debug.c. runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]: Make the default stack size small in grades that support stack segments. Standardize on "nondet" over "nond" as the abbreviation referring to the nondet stack.

Convert these files to four-space indentation. runtime/mercury_minimal_model.c: trace/mercury_trace.c: trace/mercury_trace_util.c: Conform to the changes in mercury_debug.c. compiler/options.m: Add the new grade option for stack segments. compiler/compile_target_code.m: compiler/handle_options.m: Add the new grade component, and handle its exclusions with other grade components and optimizations. compiler/llds.m: Extend the incr_sp instruction to record whether the stack frame is for a leaf procedure. compiler/llds_out.m: Output the extended incr_sp instruction. compiler/proc_gen.m: Fill in the extra slot in incr_sp instructions. compiler/goal_util.m: Provide a predicate for testing whether a procedure body is a leaf. compiler/delay_slot.m: compiler/dupelim.m: compiler/dupproc.m: compiler/exprn_aux.m: compiler/frameopt.m: compiler/global_data.m: compiler/jumpopt.m: compiler/middle_rec.m: compiler/opt_debug.m: compiler/opt_util.m: compiler/peephole.m: compiler/reassign.m: compiler/use_local_vars.m: Conform to the change in llds.m. scripts/canonicate_grade.sh-subr: scripts/init_grade_options.sh-subr: scripts/parse_grade_options.sh-subr: scripts/final_grade_options.sh-subr: scripts/mgnuc.in: Handle the new grade component. Convert parse_grade_options.sh-subr to four-space indentation. Mmake.workspace: Fix an old bug that prevented bootcheck from working in the new grade: when computing the gc grade, use the workspace's version of ml (which in this case understands the new grade components), rather than the installed ml (which does not). (This was a devil to track down, because neither make --debug nor strace on make revealed how the installed ml was being invoked, and there was no explicit invocation in the Makefile either; the error message appeared to come out of thin air just before the completion of the stage 2 library. It turned out the invocation happened implicitly, as a result of expanding a make variable.) |

This diff is the second step in implementing trace events.
Estimated hours taken: 24 Branches: main This diff is the second step in implementing trace events. It modifies label layouts to include room for solver-event-specific information, and modifies the compiler to generate this information. Modifications to the debugger to use this information, user-level documentation and test cases will come later. runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h: Modify label layouts to allow them to hold information about solver events. Modify the macros creating label layouts to include a null pointer as the value of the label layout's solver event field. For each such macro, add a version that puts a pointer to the label's solver event structure in that field. Modify the definition of the MR_Long_Lval type to allow the representation of constants, since without this capability solver events would often need to be preceded by code to put constant values (e.g. solver ids) into lvals. To make it easier to locate all the places where MR_Long_Lvals are used (which need to be updated), change the type MR_Long_Lval from a synonym for an int to a structure containing an int. runtime/mercury_types.h: Add the typedefs now required for mercury_stack_layout.h. runtime/mercury_goto.h: Add a macro needed by mercury_stack_layout.h. runtime/mercury_grade.h: Change the binary compatibility version number for debug grades, due to the change to label layouts. runtime/mercury_layout_util.c: Update the functions interpreting MR_Long_Lvals to conform to the change in mercury_stack_layout.h. runtime/mercury_deep_profiling_hand.h: Fix a bug, possibly the bug preventing us from bootchecking in deep profiling grades: stack slot numbers of ProcStatic structures are supposed to be plain integers, not MR_Long_Lvals. runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c: library/exception.m: trace/mercury_trace.c: Conform the change in MR_Long_Lval. runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]: Add a new port: the solver event port. Add a macro and a function for solver events: MR_SOLVER_EVENT and MR_solver_trace. For now, they do the same thing as MR_EVENT and MR_trace, but in future, they can do something else (e.g. generate information for a visualization tool). mdbcomp/prim_data.m: Add a new port: the solver event port. Rename all ports to eliminate clashes with language keywords such as "call". mdbcmp/trace_counts.m: browser/declarative_execution.m: slice/mcov.m: compiler/tupling.m: Conform to the change in port names, and to the addition of the new port. compiler/trace_params.m: Conform to the change in port names, and to the addition of the new port. Rename some function symbols to avoid some ambiguities. trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c: Ignore the solver port when building the annotated trace, since it doesn't fit into it. compiler/prog_event.m: Extend the representation of events to include names for the event attributes. compiler/call_gen.m: Implement event goals. The implementation consists of a call to MR_SOLVER_EVENT with a layout structure whose solver event field points to a solver event structure giving the event goal's arguments. Rename some function symbols to avoid some ambiguities. compiler/trace_gen.m: Add a predicate for generating solver events. Conform to the change in port names. Rename some function symbols to avoid some ambiguities. compiler/code_info.m: When recording trace layout information for a label, take an extra argument describing the label layout's associated solver event, if any. compiler/continuation_info.m: Extend the first representation of label layouts to include room for solver events. compiler/stack_layout.m: Convert the representation of solver events in continuation_info.m's data structure to the data structure required by layout_out.m. Conform to the changes in MR_Long_Lvals. compiler/layout.m: Extend the compiler's internal representation of the contents of label layout structures to accommodate the optional solver event field. compiler/layout_out.m: Generate the extended label layout structures, using the new macros in mercury_stack_layout.h if necessary. Conform to the change in the MR_Long_Lval type. Conform to the change in port names. Rename some function symbols to avoid some ambiguities. compiler/global_data.m: Modify rval_type_as_arg to require only the value of the relevant option, not a package of such options. This is for the new code in stack_layout.m. compiler/var_locn.m: Conform to the change in global_data.m. compiler/llds_out.m: Conform to the change in continuation_info.m.

Provide a mechanism for collecting statistics about tabling operations,
Estimated hours taken: 60
Branches: main
Provide a mechanism for collecting statistics about tabling operations,
and provide a much more convenient mechanism for resetting tables.
Since it would too complex to do this while preserving the capability
of setting --tabling-via-extra-args to no, eliminate that capability
and the option. That option was useful only for measurements of the
performance boost from setting --tabling-via-extra-args to yes in any case,
so users lose no functionality.
Previously, the only way to debug the low level details of the tabling
mechanism was to build a runtime with a specific C macro (MR_TABLE_DEBUG)
and link with that runtime; this was cumbersome. Change that so that
every one of the debuggable tabling macros has a bool argument that says
whether debugging is enabled or not. The compiler can then set this to
MR_TRUE if the new option --table-debug is given, and to MR_FALSE otherwise.
If set to MR_FALSE, the C compiler should optimize away the debug code,
with zero impact on program size or speed.
Since these changes to macros require nontrivial bootstrapping, which we don't
want to do unnecessarily, modify the interface of the tabling macros as
required to support size limits on tables. This diff also implements the
parsing of size limit specifications on tables, but does not implement them
yet; that is for a future change.
To make the syntax simpler, this diff deletes the free-standing fast_loose_memo
pragma. The same functionality is now available with a fast_loose annotation
on an ordinary memo pragma.
Make a bunch of changes to improve readability and maintainability
in the process. These mostly take the form of renaming ambiguous and/or
not sufficiently expressive function symbols.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling.h:
Move the description of structure of tables from mercury_stack_layout.h
to mercury_tabling.h, since we now need it for statistics even if
execution tracing is not enabled.
Modify those data structures to have room for the statistics.
Don't distinguish "strict", "fast_loose" and "specified" memoing
as separate eval methods; treat them as just different kinds
of the same eval method: "memo".
Remove underscores from the names of some types that the style guide
says shouldn't be there.
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_macros.h:
Modify the approach we use for macros that implement the predicates
of library/table_builtin.m. Instead of selecting between debug and
nondebug based on whether MR_TABLE_DEBUG is defined or not, add
an explicit argument controlling this to each debuggable macro.
The advantage of the new arrangement is that it scales. Another
argument controls whether we are computing statistics (and if yes,
where do we put it), and a third argument controls whether we maintain
back links in the tries and hash tables (this last argument is present
but is ignored for now).
Since the values of the arguments will be known when the .c files
containing calls to these macros are compiled, we pay the space and
time cost of debugging, statistics gathering and the maintenance of
back links if and only we need the revelant functionality.
Provide macros for limited backward compatibility with the old set
of macros; these allow workspaces created by old compilers to work
with the new macros in the runtime. The old macros followed the
naming scheme MR_table_*, the new ones are named MR_tbl_*.
runtime/mercury_table_int_fix_index_body.h:
runtime/mercury_table_int_start_index_body.h:
runtime/mercury_table_type_body.h:
New files containing parts of the old mercury_tabling.c. Each of these
files contains the body of the functions that used to be in
mercury_tabling.c. The new mercury_tabling.c #includes each of these
files more than once, to provide more than one variant of the old
function. These variants differ in aspects such as whether debugging
is enabled or statistics is being collected. Each variant therefore
incurs only the time costs it needs to. (We pay the space cost of
having all these variants all the time of course, but this cost
is negligible.)
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_defs.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_nodefs.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_undefs.h:
New files that serve as wrappers around the newly #included files,
controlling how they handle statistics.
runtime/mercury_tabling.c:
Delete functions now in the new files, and #include them instead.
Delete the data structures that used to contain summary statistics;
the new approach keeps statistics in compiler-generated,
procedure-specific data structures.
runtime/mercury_trace_base.c:
Use the new versions of the tabling macros to access the I/O table.
runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
Update some documentation for the movement of code out of
mercury_tabling.c.
runtime/mercury_types.h:
Provide forward declarations of the identifiers denoting the new types
in mercury_tabling.h.
runtime/mercury_grade.h:
Increment the exec trace version number, since we have changed
a part of the exec trace structure.
runtime/mercury_bootstrap.h:
Fix some temporary issues that arise from some renames above.
runtime/mercury_hash_lookup_or_add_body.h:
Fix comment.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Mention the new files and the dependencies that involve them.
library/table_builtin.m:
Provide a type for representing statistics and a predicate for
printing statistics.
Use the updated versions of the macros in
runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h.
compiler/prog_item.m:
Change representation of tabling pragmas to allow room for the new
attributes.
Allow an item to be marked as being generated by the compiler
as a result of a pragma memo attribute. We use this for the reset
and statistics predicates.
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Write out the new attributes of the tabling pragma.
compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_data.m:
Change the cons_id that used to refer to a procedure's call table root
to refer to the entirety of the new data structure now containing it.
The compiler now needs a way to refer to the other components of this
new data structure, since it contains the statistics.
As in the runtime, don't distinguish "strict", "fast_loose" and
"specified" memoing as separate eval methods; treat them as just
different kinds of the same eval method: "memo".
Rename some of the uses of the function symbols "c", "java", "il".
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Add an extra field in proc_infos for storing any tabling attributes.
Change the existing proc_info field that records information about
the kinds of arguments of tabled procedures to record the information
needed by the debugger too. This was needed to allow us to shift all
the RTTI for procedure-specific tables (as opposed to the RTTI for
the global I/O table) from mercury_stack_layout.h to mercury_tabling.h
without duplicating the data (which would be a maintenance problem).
Reformat some comments to make them easier to read.
compiler/layout.m:
compiler/layout_out.m:
Delete the part of the exec trace information that used to record
RTTI for tables, since this information is not generated only as
part of the debugger data structures anymore.
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Recognize the updated syntax for tabling pragmas.
compiler/add_pragma.m:
When processing tabling pragmas for inclusion in the HLDS, create
any reset and statistics predicates they ask for.
compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
Export a predicate now needed by add_pragma.m.
Handle the new attributes on tabling pragmas
compiler/globals.m:
Change the function symbols of the types describing backends and
foreign languages to say what they are. Previously, both types (as well
as several others) included the function symbol "c"; now, they are
target_c and lang_c respectively.
compiler/table_gen.m:
Implement the changes described at the top.
When passing around varsets and vartypes, pass the arguments in the
standard order.
compiler/goal_util.m:
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
When passing around varsets and vartypes, pass the arguments in the
standard order.
compiler/rtti.m:
Provide types for representing the runtime's data structures for
tabling (which are now significantly more complex than a single word)
and predicates for manipulating them, for use by both the ml and ll
backends.
compiler/llds.m:
Replace the comp_gen_c_var type with the tabling_info_struct type,
which contains the information needed to create the per-procedure
tabling data structures.
Replace references to call tables with references to the various
components of the new tabling data structures.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Add code to write out tabling_info_structs.
Delete the code required for the old, hacky way of resetting tables.
Reorder some code more logically.
compiler/proc_gen.m:
Generate tabling_info_structs.
compiler/stack_layout.m:
Don't generate the information now generated in proc_gen.m.
compiler/mlds.m:
Give mlds_proc_labels their own function symbols, instead of using
a pair. Rename some other function symbols to avoid ambiguity and add
expressiveness.
Provide for the representation of references to the various components
of the new tabling data structures, and for the representation of their
types.
compiler/ml_code_gen.m:
When generating code for a tabled procedure, generate also the data
structures required for its table.
compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m:
compiler/ml_util.m:
Move some predicates from rtti_to_mlds.m to ml_util.m, since we
now also want to call them from ml_code_gen.m.
compiler/name_mangle.m:
Add some utility predicates.
compiler/options.m:
Delete the old --allow-table-reset option.
Add the new --table-debug option.
Comment out an implementor-only option.

Fix a bug where subterm dependency tracking would break if a conditional
Estimated hours taken: 3 Branches: main Fix a bug where subterm dependency tracking would break if a conditional breakpoint was set. When the condition of a conditional breakpoint is evaluated, some Mercury code is called. Conditional breakpoints were being evaluated outside of the "safe" part of the call graph where the call sequence number is saved and restored in case any traced Mercury code updates the call sequence number. This meant that the Mercury code used to evaluate conditional breakpoints was updating the call sequence number and confusing the declarative debugger. This type of error, where Mercury code is called and the original sequence number is not restored afterwards has occured numerous times in the past (for example it occured when Ralph introduced the list command), so I have changed the MR_TRACE_CALL_MERCURY macro to save and restore the event, sequence and depth numbers to prevent this kind of error in the future. Previously the event, sequence and depth numbers were saved in an MR_Event_Details structure at the start of MR_trace_event and restored at the end. The MR_Event_Details structure needed to be passed to all the command functions in case there was a retry (since then the event, sequence and depth numbers must not be restored to their original values, but to new values). This is now all unnecessary, since the event, sequence and depth numbers will be restored after any Mercury code is called (as long as it is wrapped in MR_TRACE_CALL_MERCURY). runtime/mercury_trace_base.h: Save and restore the event, call sequence and depth numbers when calling Mercury code. trace/mercury_trace.c: trace/mercury_trace.h: trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c: trace/mercury_trace_declarative.h: trace/mercury_trace_external.c: trace/mercury_trace_internal.c: trace/mercury_trace_util.c: trace/mercury_trace_util.h: Do not pass around event_details anymore.

Allow retries across builtin_catch in mdb.
Estimated hours taken: 3 Branches: main (and 0.12?) Allow retries across builtin_catch in mdb. Previously retries failed because of an assertion in the debugger that all stack frames should have their MR_sle_exec_trace fields filled in. This was not true for builtin_catch, since the stack frame is created with hand written C code. The fix is to make a special case of builtin_catch. This is okay because the MR_sle_exec_trace field is not needed to do a retry over builtin_catch. trace/mercury_trace.c: Do not expect the MR_sle_exec_trace field to be filled in for builtin_catch. tests/debugger/declarative/Mmakefile: tests/debugger/declarative/catch_retry.exp: tests/debugger/declarative/catch_retry.inp: tests/debugger/declarative/catch_retry.m: Test retries across builtin_catch. |

Reset the I/O tabling counter on a retry if any I/O actions have occured inside
Estimated hours taken: 2 Branches: main Reset the I/O tabling counter on a retry if any I/O actions have occured inside the call being retried, even if the procedure doesn't have a pair of I/O state arguments. This ensures retry works over impure procedures that do I/O, provided they call tabled I/O primitives which take a pair of I/O states. I picked this problem up while trying to debug code with a call to try_io. try_io calls try, passing a goal that manufacturs its own I/O state. doc/reference_manual.texi: Document that tabled_for_io doesn't work with impure foreign procs that do I/O if there are no I/O state arguments. Also document that tabled_for_io will change in the future. trace/mercury_trace.c: Check if any I/O actions were performed and reset the I/O counter accordingly, regardless of whether the procedure has a pair of I/O state arguments. We still need to check if the procedure has a pair of I/O state arguments, so we can warn the user if they attempt a retry over such a call in the absense of I/O tabling. We can't know if a call may do I/O if I/O tabling is off and it doesn't have a pair of I/O state arguments, so we assume that it won't in this case. tests/debugger/declarative/Mercury.options: tests/debugger/declarative/Mmakefile: tests/debugger/declarative/io_tab_impure.exp: tests/debugger/declarative/io_tab_impure.inp: tests/debugger/declarative/io_tab_impure.m: Test the change. |

Speed up the declarative debugger by factoring out the code responsible for
Estimated hours taken: 7 Branches: main Speed up the declarative debugger by factoring out the code responsible for building the histogram in implicit subtrees into a seperate function. Call this new function directly from MR_trace when inside an implicit subtree. Because this function doesn't have to do very much and will be called for most events when the search space is large, this is a big speed improvement. A session which finds a bug in a leaf node of a run of the Mercury compiler on a small program using divide-and-query, takes 56% less time. trace/mercury_trace.c: trace/mercury_trace.h: Add MR_trace_real_decl_implicit_subtree. trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c: trace/mercury_trace_declarative.h: Export the global variables that keep track of the depth of events in the EDT and the histgram so they can be accessed by MR_trace_real_decl_implicit_subtree. Remove the MR_TRACE_EVENT_TOO_DEEP macro. This macro used to be more complicated, but now it's simple and obvious enough that we don't need a macro. In MR_trace_decl_debug avoid multiply dereferencing the same field in event_info, by dereferencing MR_trace_port and MR_trace_seqno once and then storing them in variables. Rename event_depth to node_depth, since this gives the depth of the corresponding EDT node. Replace MR_trace_calculate_event_depth with a macro MR_DD_CALC_NODE_DEPTH. We need it to be a macro to avoid function calls in MR_trace_real_decl_implicit_subtree. Call the MR_DD_CALC_NODE_DEPTH macro. If entering an implicit subtree set the callback function to MR_trace_real_decl_implicit_subtree. Move the check for suppressed events to MR_trace_include_event. Delete MR_trace_count_event_in_implicit_subtree since MR_trace_real_decl_implicit_subtree now does this job. Split the function which prints progress into two: one for printing progress when generating a subtree and one for printing progress when generating a supertree. Define two macros which call the above functions. One macro is called when inside and implicit subtree and one is called when constructing nodes. Print different messages when generating a subtree or a supertree. |

compiler/modules.m:
Include dummy types interface files, even if they are private to the
module. This is necessary because with the MLDS backend, the generated
code inside the module and outside the module must agree whether a
function returning a value of the type returns a real value or a void
value, and this requires them to agree on whether the type is dummy
or not.
The impact on interface files is minimal, since very few types are
dummy types, and changing a type from a dummy type to a non-dummy type

We can't test the enum directly as we did before, because C compilers may report a warning that the test will never succeed (since -1 is not one of the values in the enum). Clarify the comment about the requirement of MR_PredFunc to match prim_data.pred_or_func. Define a macro for the value that indicates there is no proc id.

It would be nicer to avoid the second cast altogether, but the readline interface requires it. trace/mercury_trace_internal.c: Use MR_trace_is_unsigned when working with MR_Unsigned values. Cast pseudo-typeinfos which are variables to MR_Integer rather than int, to avoid compiler warnings about pointer casts. We cast them to int before printing them, but that is because we know they won't be that big. Parse the argument to the goto command as type MR_Unsigned instead of int, to make it possible to goto an event with a number bigger than 2^31, on 64-bit machines at least. (We already get 200M+ events when the compiler is in a debug grade.) trace/mercury_trace_util.c: trace/mercury_trace_util.h: Provide MR_trace_is_unsigned, which is like MR_trace_is_natural_number except that it works with MR_Unsigned values. trace/mercury_trace_vars.c: Cast void* to MR_Integer rather than int. |

Add a new form of tabling pragma, fast_loose_memo.
Estimated hours taken: 12
Branches: main
Add a new form of tabling pragma, fast_loose_memo. It differs from memo in
only one way: for arguments of user-defined types, instead of tabling every
single function symbol in the value, it tables a pointer to the term instead.
(Actually, it tables the contents of the selected argument register, so it
works even if the value is not a pointer.)
As the name implies, this form of tabling is faster than memo. The tradeoff
is that it is looser: if two invocations specify two terms that are at
different addresses but have the same value, this new form of tabling will
not recognize the commonality.
doc/reference_manual.texi:

Fix three bugs in the declarative debuggger.
Estimated hours taken: 15
Branches: main
Fix three bugs in the declarative debuggger.
The first two are to do with IO tabling in the declarative debugger:
The first bug was exposed when a new explicit supertree was built over a part
of the program that did IO. The starting IO action sequence number was not
being set correctly, causing some IO actions to be omitted from the resulting
IO action map. The fix is to set the starting IO action sequence number to
the IO action sequence number at the CALL event for the topmost node of the new
explicit supertree.
The second bug was exposed when a retry was done over a part of the program
whose IO was not tabled. This caused the building of the IO action map to
fail. Specifically the MR_trace_get_action C function would abort with a
message that the IO action number was out of range. The fix is to only record
tabled IO actions in the IO action map and then warn the user if a question is
asked where some of the IO actions for the atom haven't been tabled.
The third bug causes the declarative debugger to throw an exception when
an explicit subtree of depth 1 is requested. This was because MR_edt_depth
(the global which keeps track of the current depth of the EDT) was not being
set correctly.
browser/declarative_debugger.m:
Allow the IO actions for a final atom to be tabled or untabled.
browser/declarative_tree.m:
Extract a list of the tabled and untabled IO actions for a question
from the IO action map.
browser/declarative_user.m:
Bring module imports up to date with coding standards.
Only allow browsing and printing of tabled IO actions.
Print all the tabled IO actions for a question and print a warning if
there are any untabled IO actions for a question.
Use "tabled IO actions" instead of "io actions" when displaying how
many tabled IO actions there are for a question.
browser/io_action.m:
Add a type to record if an IO action is tabled or not.
Bring module imports up to date with coding standards.
Only record tabled IO actions in the IO action map used by the
declarative debugger.
runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]:
Make MR_trace_get_action return true or false depending on whether
the requested IO action was tabled or not, so that we can easily
detect this in io_action.m above.
tests/debugger/declarative/io_stream_test.exp2:
Update expected output.
tests/debugger/declarative/tabled_read_decl.{exp,inp,m}:
Add regression tests for all three bugs.
trace/mercury_trace.[ch]:
Allow the message printed by the retry command, when it is about to
retry over untabled IO, to be customised. This allows the declarative
debugger to print a different message when it needs to do a retry
over untabled IO. Previously the message seemed unrelated to the
declarative debugging session.
Get MR_trace_retry to report if it did an unsafe retry over
untabled IO.
trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c:
Print a friendlier message when attempting to retry over untabled IO.
Set the initial IO action sequence number to the IO action sequence
number at the time of the CALL event of the topmost node of the new
explicit supertree.
Initialise MR_edt_depth to -1, instead of 0, since it will be
subsequently made 0.
When building an explicit supertree, only ask the user once if a
retry can be done over untabled IO.
Because of this rename MR_trace_retry_max to MR_trace_retry_supertree,
since it should now only be used when building a supertree.
When checking if we are at the final event for the top of the new
explicit supertree, add the depth_check_adjustment. This ensures
that the final event has the same depth as the corresponding call
event.
Add an argument to MR_decl_diagnosis to tell it whether a new tree
was generated, or to resume a previous session. Previously the resume
option was implied by a null tree, which made the code less readable.
trace/mercury_trace_external.c:
trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
Pass the new extra arguments to MR_trace_retry.
trace/mercury_trace_readline.c:
If a readline prompt spans multiple lines then the display gets messed
up when the user starts typing (not sure if this is a bug in readline
or not). Fix this by only passing the last line of a prompt to
readline and just fprintf'ing any previous lines.
trace/mercury_trace_vars.c:
Handle the new MR_bool return value of MR_trace_get_action.

Fix performance problems in the compiler when handling automatically generated
Estimated hours taken: 10 Branches: main Fix performance problems in the compiler when handling automatically generated code (specifically, code generated by caribou). These depend on new facilities in the library. Fix a problem with the debugger: get the debugger to stop when given an interrupt signal. (I needed this fix to find the performance problems above.) The problem was that the variable set by the interrupt handler wasn't the right one. library/map.m: The map__overlay predicate takes time linear in the new map. However, sometimes the compiler wants to overlay a large map on a small one. Add a new version, map__overlay_large_map, which does the same job but whose complexity is linear in the size of the old map. library/set.m: library/set__ordlist.m: Add a new version of set__divide specialized to a situation that occurs in some performance-critical code in the compiler. This lowers the complexity from quadratic to linear. library/bag.m: Add predicates for operating on sets alongside for predicates for operating on lists. These should be able to exploit the sortedness of the set, although we don't do so yet. library/svbag.m: Add this new module to make some of the changes to the compiler easier. library/library.m: NEWS: Mention the new module. compiler/instmap.m: Use either map__overlay or map__overlay_large_map, depending on which one is likely to be more efficient. compiler/deforest.m: compiler/goal_util.m: compiler/mode_util.m: compiler/simplify.m: compiler/table_gen.m: Conform to the changes in instmap.m. compiler/liveness.m: Use the specialized version of set__divide. compiler/mode_info.m: The original representation of liveness information in the mode analyzer had a fast insert operation, but a slow delete operation and a lookup operation that is *very* slow when analyzing long conjunctions.

Fix some bugs in my previous diff that optimized away stack slots storing
Estimated hours taken: 8 Branches: main Fix some bugs in my previous diff that optimized away stack slots storing dummy values that manifested themselves as warnings from the C compiler about integers too big to fit into 8 or 16 bits being implicitly truncated. They did not lead to the failure of any test case, since it doesn't matter whether the debugger gets the values it ignores (I/O states or stores) from valid stack slots or not. When generating RTTI for gc and the debugger, the compiler had three places that generated references to stack slots: the return sites of calls, resume points, and trace events. The previous diff updated only the first of these. This diff updates the other two, and ensures there are no more. Since the debugger needs to know whether a procedure has a pair of I/O state arguments (e.g. when performing a retry), we add a field to proc layouts to hold this information. runtime/mercury_grade.h: Increment the debug grade runtime compatibility version number to reflect the change in layout structures. runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h: Add an extra field to proc layouts to specify flags. At the moment, the only flag says whether the procedure has a pair of I/O state arguments. Add an extra field to proc layouts to specify the trace level of a procedure. This used to be the same as the module's trace level, but one of my bug fixes a couple of months ago broke that link. We don't yet use this field, but it makes sense to do it at the same time as the increment of the compatibility version number. compiler/continuation_info.m: Attach to every description of a live value a description of where in the compiler that description was created. Rename the type involved to avoid an ambiguity. Ignore dummy types when generating resume layouts. Add some sanity checks. Add new fields to the continuation_info data structure to allow stack_layout.m to fill in the new fields in proc layout structures. compiler/trace.m: Do not generate references to dummy values at trace events, except at call ports. At those ports, all live variables should be in registers. compiler/stack_layout.m: Make the check for whether a value fits into an unsigned 8 bit value a direct rather than an indirect one. The indirect one assumed that stack slot numbers are all positive, which is now a bad assumption. Check for negative stack slot numbers in all RTTI stack slot descriptions. Fill in the two new slots in proc layout structures. compiler/layout.m: Reserve space for the two new slots in proc layout structures. compiler/layout_out.m: Output the two new slots in proc layout structures. compiler/code_gen.m: Preserve the information needed by stack_layout.m for the two new fields. compiler/llds_out.m: Add some code that ensures that we never output an integer constant that doesn't fit into the range of its type. Since this code is executed many millions of times, it is designed to be enabled only when the checking is manually enabled. It is normally off, but I got a clean bootcheck in the debug grade (which is the best stress test) with it enabled. compiler/trace_params.m: Update a comment. compiler/code_info.m: Export a function for use by trace.m. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Export a predicate for use by stack_layout.m. compiler/Mercury.options: Enable inlining for llds_out.m, to get rid of the sanity checking overhead if it is not enabled. tests/debugger/completion.exp*: tests/debugger/interpreter.exp*: tests/debugger/multi_parameter.exp*: tests/debugger/queens.exp*: tests/debugger/print_goal.exp*: tests/debugger/tabled_read.exp*: tests/debugger/tabled_read_decl.exp*: tests/debugger/declarative/io_stream_test.exp*: tests/debugger/declarative/tabled_read_decl.exp*: Update these expected output files to not expect dummy values that aren't kept anymore. |

Estimated hours taken: 8
Branches: main
Optimize away stack slots storing dummy values; values of the io__state and
store__store types.
compiler/stack_alloc.m:
Allocate distinct negative stack slot numbers to values of dummy types.
We need
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Add a predicate for testing whether a value is of a dummy type.
compiler/code_into.m:
When constructing the list of live locations after a call, do not
include the negative stack slots containing dummy values. The list
of live locations is used by the (future) native collector, which
should ignore dummy types, and by the debugger. The debugger can't
do anything with these dummy values on the stack except tell the
user about their existence, which doesn't do the debugger user any
good.
We still keep liveness information about dummy values in registers
at calls and returns, since both the procedural and declarative
debuggers need to know procedures' full argument lists.
With respect to the list of live locations before the call, which
was used only by the (now extinct) value numbering optimization,
filter out all dummy types, since their values need not be preserved.
compiler/trace.m:
Do not ask the code generator to preserve values of dummy types,
since doing so would require referring to negative stack slots.
compiler/unify_gen.m:
compiler/var_locn.m:
Fix a couple of situations in which we could refer to the negative
stack slots we now allocate to dummy values.
compiler/call_gen.m:
Reorder some code to make the source match what happens at runtime.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Fix the formatting of the sanity check for negative stack slots.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Since the --debug-opt-pred-id option is useless without --debug-opt,
make --debug-opt-pred-id option imply --debug-opt. This was useful
in debugging this diff.
trace/mercury_trace.c:
Adapt the test for whether a retry is across I/O. We used to base the
test on whether the retried predicate has any I/O state arguments,
and if so, whether the original I/O state variable is still around
on the stack. After this change, the answer to the second half of
that question would always be "no", so we now use only the first half:
whether the retried predicate has any I/O state arguments. This
requires us to consider more retries to be retries across I/O, but
from the point of view of a user who may not remember whether the I/O
predicate has done any I/O so far or not, is arguably more consistent
than our previous policy.
Allow retries even if a value of type store.store is missing, since
store.store is a dummy type just as io.state is.
trace/mercury_trace.c:
compiler/type_util.m:
Document the fact that you need to update both these files if you
want to modify the set of dummy types.
tests/debugger/retry.{inp,exp,exp2}:
Due to the change in mercury_trace.c, one retry in this test case
changes to being retry over I/O. Update the test input to force this
retry over I/O, and expect the expanded input to be echoed in the
output.
tests/debugger/nondet_stack.{exp,exp2}:
Update these expected outputs to account for the fact that we now need
fewer stack slots to hold old I/O states when debugging is enabled.

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".

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.

mark goals wrapping the original goals as not impure for determinism
computations.
compiler/handle_options.m:

Get Mercury to work with gcc 3.4. This required fixing several problems.
Estimated hours taken: 16 Branches: main Get Mercury to work with gcc 3.4. This required fixing several problems. One problem that caused errors is that gcc 3.4 is smart enough to figure out that in LLDS grades with gcc gotos, the C functions containing our code are not referred to, and so it optimizes them away. The fix is to ensure that mercury_<module>_init is defined always to call those functions, even if the macro that usually controls this, MR_MAY_NEED_INITIALIZATION, is not defined. The mercury_<module>_init won't be called from the init_modules function in the program's _init.c file, so there is no impact on initialization time, but gcc doesn't know this when compiling a module's .c file, so it doesn't optimize away the code we need. The cost of this change is thus only a small amount of code space. It is worth paying this cost even with compilers other than gcc 3.4 for simplicity. Actually, this size increase seems to be slightly smaller than the size reduction due to the better optimization capabilities of gcc 3.4 compared to gcc 3.2.2. A second problem is that gcc 3.4 warns about casts in lvalues being a deprecated feature. This gave lots of warnings, since we used to define several Mercury abstract machine registers, including MR_succip, MR_hp, MR_sp, MR_maxfr and MR_curfr using lvalue casts. The fix is to have two macros for each of these abstract machine registers, one of type MR_Word that you can assign to (e.g. MR_sp_word), and one of the original type that is of the right type but not an lvalue (e.g. MR_sp). The lvalue itself can't be made the right type, because MR_sp isn't a variable in its own right, but possibly defined to be a machine register. The machine register could made the right type, but only at the cost of a lot of complexity. This problem doesn't apply to the special-purpose Mercury abstract machine registers that can't be allocated to machine registers. Instead of #defining these to slots in MR_fake_reg, we make them global variables of the natural type. This should also make it easier to debug code using these registers. We treat these global variables as if they were machine registers in that MR_save_registers copies values from these global variables to slots reserved for them in the MR_fake_reg array, to allow code to loop over all Mercury abstract machine registers. These saved slots must of course be of type MR_Word, so we again need two macros to refer to them, a lvalue of type MR_Word and an rvalue with the right type. A third problem is that gcc 3.4 warns about conditionals in lvalues being a deprecated feature. This gave a few warnings, since we used to define MR_virtual_reg and MR_saved_reg using lvalues using conditionals. The fix is to have one macro (MR_virtual_reg_value) for use in rvalues and a separate macro which uses an if-then-else instead of a conditional expression (MR_virtual_reg_assign), for assignments. A fourth problem is that gcc 3.4 warns about comma operators in lvalues being a deprecated feature. This gave warnings in the few places where we refer to MR_r(N) for values of N that can map to fake registers directly, since in those cases we preceded the reference to the fake_reg array with a range check of the array index. The fix to this is to move the test to compile time for compiler-generated code. Hand-written code never refers to MR_r(N) for these values, and is very unlikely to do so in the future; instead, it refers to the underlying fake_reg array directly, since that way it doesn't have to worry about which fake registers have their own MR_rN macro and which don't. Therefore no check mechanism for hand-written code is necessary. This change mean that changing the number of MR_rN registers now requires change to the compiler as well as to the runtime system. A fifth problem is that gcc 3.4 by default assumes -fstrict-aliasing at -O2. Since we cast between integers and pointers of different types all the time, and changing that is not practical, at least in the short term, we need to disable -fstrict-aliasing when we enable -O2. NEWS: Note that Mercury now works with gcc 3.4. configure.in: scripts/mgnuc.in: Detect whether the compiler supports -fstrict-aliasing, and if so, whether it assumes it by default with -O2. If the answer is yes to both, make mgnuc specify -fno-strict-aliasing when it specifies -O2. By including it in CFLAGS_FOR_OPT, which gets put into Mercury.config, we also get -f-no-strict-aliasing when mmc invokes the C compiler directly. compiler/llds_out.m: Don't generate #ifdef MR_MAY_NEED_INITIALIZATION around the definitions and calls to the bunch functions, which call the functions we don't want the C compiler to optimize away. Generate the newly required lvalues on the left sides of assignments. We still have code to generate LVALUE_CASTs in some cases, but I don't think those cases ever arise. Add a compile-time check of register numbers. Ideally, the code generator should use stack slots instead of registers beyond the max number, but I don't recall us ever bumping into this limit by accident. compiler/fact_table.m: Use the newly required lvalues on the left sides of assignments in some hand-written C code included in generated .c files. runtime/mercury_regs.h: Make the changes described above to fix the second, third and fourth problems. We still use comma operators in lvalues when counting references to registers, but it is OK to require anyone who wants to enable this feature to use a compiler version that supports comma operators in lvalues or to ignore the warnings. Use the same mapping from Mercury abstract machine registers to the register count array as to the MR_fake_reg array. Have this mapping depend as little as possible on whether we need a real machine register to store MR_engine base, even if it costs a wasted slot in MR_fake_reg. Fix an old inconsistency: treat the Mercury abstract machine registers used for trailing the same way as the other Mercury abstract machine registers, by making MR_save_registers/MR_restore_registers copy them to and from their global variable homes. Document the requirement for the match between the runtime's and the compiler's notions of the maximum MR_rN register number. This requirement makes it harder for users to increase the number of virtual registers, but as far as I know noone has wanted to do this. Change the names of some of the macros to make them clearer. Reorder some parts of this file, and add some documentation, also in the interest of clarity. runtime/mercury_regorder.h: Delete this file after moving its contents, in much modified form, to mercury_regs.h. mercury_regorder.h was always logically part of mercury_regs.h, but was separated out to make it easier to change the mapping from Mercury abstract machine registers to machine registers. However, the cost of incompatibility caused by any such changes would be much greater that any likely performance benefit. runtime/Mmakefile: Remove the reference to mercury_regorder.h. runtime/mercury_regs.[ch]: runtime/mercury_memory_zones.[ch]: Move some functionality dealing with registers from mercury_memory_zones to mercury_regs, since it belongs there. runtime/mercury_regs.[ch]: Add a function to make it easiler to debug changes to map from Mercury abstract machine to MR_fake_reg slots. runtime/mercury_regs.[ch]: runtime/mercury_wrapper.c: Move the code to print counts of register uses from mercury_wrapper.c to mercury_regs.c. Make mercury_wrapper.c call the debugging function in mercury_regs.c if -X is specified in MERCURY_OPTIONS. runtime/mercury_bootstrap.h: Move the old MR_saved_reg and MR_virtual_reg macros from mercury_regs.h to mercury_bootstrap.h to prevent their accidental use. Since they shouldn't be used by user code, move them to the section that is not enabled by default. runtime/mercury_stacks.[ch]: Add _word versions of the macros for stack slots, for the same reason why we need them for Mercury abstract machine registers, and use them. Add global variables for the Mercury abstract machine registers for the gen, cut and pneg stacks. runtime/mercury_heap.h: Change the macros for allocating memory to assign to MR_hp_word instead of MR_hp. runtime/mercury_string.h: Change the macros for allocating strings to accomodate the updates to mercury_heap.h. Also change the expected type of the target to make it MR_String instead of MR_ConstString, since the latter requires casts in the caller. runtime/mercury_trail.h: runtime/mercury_types.h: Move the definition of the type MR_TrailEntry from mercury_trail.h to mercury_types.h, since it is now used in mercury_regs.h. runtime/mercury_accurate_gc.c: runtime/mercury_agc_debug.c: runtime/mercury_calls.h: runtime/mercury_context.[ch]: runtime/mercury_deconstruct_macros.h: runtime/mercury_deep_copy_body.h: runtime/mercury_engine.[ch]: runtime/mercury_hand_compare_body.h: runtime/mercury_hand_unify_body.h: runtime/mercury_ho_call.c: runtime/mercury_layout_util.c: runtime/mercury_make_type_info_body.h: runtime/mercury_minimal_model.c: runtime/mercury_ml_deconstruct_body.h: runtime/mercury_ml_functor_body.h: runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h: runtime/mercury_type_desc.c: runtime/mercury_type_info.c: runtime/mercury_unify_compare_body.h: runtime/mercury_wrapper.c: Conform to the changes in the rest of the runtime. In some cases, fix inconsistencies in indentation. runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c: Add some conditionally compiled debugging code controlled by the macro MR_ADDR_DEBUG, to help debug some problems with stored stack pointers. runtime/mercury_grade.h: Increment the binary compatibility version number. This is needed to avoid potential problems when a Mercury module and the debugger are compiled with different versions of the macros in mercury_regs.h. library/exception.m: Update the code that assigns to abstract machine registers. library/array.m: library/construct.m: library/dir.m: library/io.m: library/string.m: Conform to the new definitions of allocation macros. library/time.m: Delete an unnecessary #include. trace/mercury_trace.c: trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c: trace/mercury_trace_util.c: Conform to the changes in the rest of the runtime. tests/hard_coded/qual_test_is_imported.m: tests/hard_coded/aditi_private_builtin.m: Remove an unnecessary import to avoid a warning. tools/makebatch: Add an option --save-stage2-on-error, that saves the stage2 directory if a bootcheck fails. scripts/ml.in: Make ml more robust in the face of garbage files. |

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.)
scripts/canonical_grade.sh-subr:
scripts/init_grade_options.sh-subr:
scripts/parse_grade_options.sh-subr:
scripts/mgnuc.in:
Implement the new grade component.
trace/mercury_trace.c:
trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
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.
tests/tabling/Mmakefile:
Disable the tests whose combination of determinism and evaluation
method is no longer supported, and in which neither one can be changed.
tests/tabling/loopcheck_no_loop.{m,exp}:
Make this test case tougher.
tests/tabling/test_tabling:
Make this script more robust in the face of different kinds of
test case failures.
tests/invalid/loopcheck.{m,err_exp}:
tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
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.
