This checkin has several major purposes, set out in the sections below,
Estimated hours taken: 240
This checkin has several major purposes, set out in the sections below,
all connected with the implementation of the new debugger command set.
DOCUMENT NEW DEBUG COMMAND SET
doc/user_guide.texi:
Add a new section on the debugger. The description of the commands
is complete, but some of the background sections, and the section
about how to build debuggable executables, are not yet done.
Update the documentation of the tracing options.
doc/generate_mdb_doc:
A new shell script that automatically converts some of the new
sections of the user guide into the online documentation of the
debugger.
doc/mdb_categories:
The fixed initial part of the online documentation.
doc/Mmakefile:
Add rules for creating mdb_doc, the file that is the online
documentation of the debugger, and for installing it together
with mdbrc.
Mmake.common.in:
Define INSTALL_DOC_DIR for doc/Mmakefile.
scripts/mdbrc.in:
A debugger command script that reads in the online documentation
and then defines some standard aliases.
configure.in:
Define the variable that scripts/mdb.in and scripts/mdbrc.in use
to find the right files, and get configure to perform the
substitutions.
configure.in:
scripts/mdb:
scripts/mdb.in:
Replace mdb with mdb.in. Mdb is now created during configuration
from mdb.in, filling in the name of the file that contains the default
debugger initialization commands.
util/info_to_mdb.c:
A program that does most of the work involved in automatically
converting user guide sections into online documentation.
(This couldn't easily be written in sh, because sh's read
command has no notion of pushback.)
util/Mmakefile:
Add info_to_mdb to the list of targets.
tools/bootcheck:
Make sure that the tests in tests/debugger are executed with an
initialization setup that is equivalent to what users will see
by default.
REORGANIZE TRACING OPTIONS
compiler/globals.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
compiler/options.m:
compiler/trace.m:
Reorganize the handling of trace levels around the new options
--trace-internal, --trace-redo, and --trace-return.
compiler/*.m:
Use the new ways of getting at trace levels.
tests/hard_coded/typeclasses/Mmakefile:
s/--trace all/--trace deep/
SUPPORT RETRY
compiler/trace.m:
After every call to MR_trace(), emit code that checks whether it
should jump away, and if yes, performs the jump. This is used to
implement retry. (The debugger cannot execute the jump itself
because it is in the wrong C stack frame.)
compiler/llds.m:
compiler/continuation_info.m:
compiler/stack_layout.m:
Modify the data structures that record information about live
value at program points, to record the identity of each variable.
This is necessary for the implementation of the restart command,
since we do not want to confuse two distinct variables just because
they have the same name. For example, a variable whose name is X
and number is 5 is now recorded in the name array as "5:X".
Clean up the data structure a bit, so that we don't have to store
dummy names for values that are not variables.
compiler/*.m:
Minor changes to conform to the data structure changes.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Redefine an existing macro to strip away the initial number: prefix
from the "name" of a variable (keeping its original function on
changed data), and add a new one to access the raw unstripped data.
runtime/mercury_init.h:
runtime/mercury_wrapper.h:
Update the prototype of MR_trace_{fake,real}, and the type of the
global that points to them.
runtime/mercury_layout_util.h:
Add an extra function, MR_get_register_number, for use by retry.
USE FIXED STACK SLOTS FOR TRACE INFO
compiler/code_gen.m:
compiler/code_info.m:
compiler/live_vars.m:
compiler/trace.m:
If execution tracing is enabled, reserve the first few stack slots
to hold the event number of the call event, the call number, the
call depth, the redo layout structure address (if generating redo
events) and the from_full flag at the time of call (if we are doing
shallow tracing). By allocating the first four of these to fixed stack
slots, the debugger knows where to look for them without having
to be told. It finds out the location of the fifth, if needed,
from a new slot in the proc layout structure. (It is not possible
to allocate all five to fixed stack slots without wasting stack space
in some cases.)
compiler/trace.m:
Remove from the call to MR_trace the parameters that are now in fixed
stack slots, since MR_trace can now look them up itself.
compiler/continuation_info.m:
compiler/stack_layout.m:
Add an extra field to the proc_layout_info. If the module is shallow
traced, this field says which stack slot holds the saved value of
MR_from_full. If it is not shallow traced, this field says that
there is no such stack slot.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Add macros for accessing the fixed stack slots holding the event
number of the call event, the call number, the call depth, and,
at a redo event, the redo layout structure address.
Support the new field in proc layouts that gives the location of the
from-full flag (if any).
runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]:
trace/mercury_trace.[ch]:
Remove the call number and call depth arguments from MR_trace
and its avatars, since this info is now in fixed stack slots
in every procedure that can call MR_trace. This should reduce
the size of the executable significantly, since there are lots
of calls to MR_trace.
runtime/mercury_init.h:
runtime/mercury_wrapper.h:
Update the prototype of MR_trace_{fake,real}, and the type of the
global that points to them.
START NUMBERING FRAMEVARS FROM ONE
compiler/code_info.m:
compiler/live_vars.m:
compiler/llds_out.m:
compiler/trace.m:
Start numbering framevars from 1 internally to the compiler;
the runtime already starts from 1. This simplifies several tasks.
ADD REDO EVENTS
compiler/trace.m:
compiler/code_gen.m:
Before the code that executes "succeed()", emit code to push a
a temp nondet frame whose redoip points to a label in the runtime
that calls MR_trace for a REDO event and then fails, provided
--trace-redo is set.
compiler/llds.m:
Add a new code address constant, do_trace_redo_fail, which stands
for the address in the trace system to which calls MR_trace for
the redo event and then fails.
compiler/trace.m:
compiler/llds_out.m:
Provided we are doing redo tracing, fill in the slot that holds
the layout information for the REDO event.
compiler/*.m:
Minor changes to conform to handle the new code address constant.
browser/debugger_interface.m:
Add redo to trace_port_type.
runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]:
Add a C module containing the code that calls MR_trace for REDO
events.
ENSURE THAT INPUT ARGUMENTS ARE ALWAYS VISIBLE
compiler/trace.m:
When generating the set of live variables at internal ports,
the variables that are in the pre-death set of the goal into which
we are entering may not be available. However, the variables in the
pre-death set that are also in the resume vars set will be available,
so now include info about them in the layout structure for the event.
Since with tracing the non-clobbered input args are in all resume vars
sets, this ensures that these input args will be available from all
internal events.
compiler/code_info.m:
Export a previously internal predicate (current_resume_point_vars)
to make this possible.
BUG FIX: WANT RETURN LAYOUTS
compiler/globals.m:
compiler/call_gen.m:
compiler/code_info.m:
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Add a new pred globals__want_return_layouts, which says whether the
compiler should generate layout structures for call returns. This pred
centralizes the several previous copies of the test. One of those
copies (the one in call_gen) was faulty, leading to a bug: in the
presence of execution tracing but the absence of accurate gc,
information about the variables that are live at the call return
wasn't being gathered properly.
BUG FIX: #include mercury_trace_base.h
compiler/llds_out.m:
#include mercury_trace_base.h, not mercury_trace.h, since now
mercury_trace_base.h defines everything directly accessible from
modules compiled with tracing.
RECAST MERCURY_TRACE_UTIL AS MERCURY_LAYOUT_UTIL
runtime/mercury_trace_util.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_layout_util.[ch]:
Rename this module from trace_util to layout_util, since it is also
used by the native garbage collector. Remove "trace" from the names
of functions.
Get rid of the global variable MR_saved_regs, and instead thread
a pointer to this data structure through the relevant functions
as an extra argument.
Add a lot more documentation in the header file.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Reflect the module rename.
runtime/*.c:
Refer to the new module.
DELETE EASY-TO-MISUSE MACROS
runtime/mercury_stacks.h:
Delete the based_framevar and based_detstackvar macros, since their
continued use can lead to off-by-one errors, and the saved_framevar
and saved_detstackvar macros, since they are no longer used.
runtime/*.c
Update any references to any macros removed from mercury_stacks.h.
MISC RUNTIME CHANGES
runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]:
trace/mercury_trace*.[ch]:
Make typedef'd names conform to the naming convention.
Make MR_trace_call_{seqno,depth} consistently Unsigned, rather than
sometimes Word and sometimes Unsigned.
FIX BUG: MAKE THE DEBUGGER PRINT TO STDOUT, NOT THE CURRENT STREAM
library/io.m:
Export to C code the predicates that return the identities and types
of stdin, stdout and stderr, as well as io__print/[34].
library/std_util.m:
Export to C code a predicate that returns the type_info for the
type stdutil:type_info. This type_info is required if C code
wants to invoke make_permanent on any type_info structure,
as the debugger does.
runtime/mercury_init.h:
Add extern declarations for the C functions now exported from io.m.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
Add new global variables to hold the addresses of these C functions.
runtime/mercury_layout_util.c:
Use indirect calls through these global variables to print Mercury
values, instead of lower-level code.
util/mkinit.c:
Assign the addresses of the functions exported from io.m to the
global variables defined in mercury_wrapper.h.
BUG FIX: STACK TRACE FUNCTIONS DEPEND ON THE LABEL TABLE
runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c:
On entry to any of the functions exported from this module,
ensure that the label table is loaded by calling do_init_modules.
Without a filled-in label table, the stack trace will not be able to
find any stack layout info.
BUG FIX: REMOVE BROWSER/*.C
configure.in:
When removing .c files generated by the C compiler, remove those
in the browser directory as well as the compiler, library and
profiler directories.
IMPLEMENT NEW DEBUGGER COMMAND SET
runtime/mercury_stack_trace.[ch]:
Factor out the code that prints the id of a procedure into a function
of its own, so that it can also be used from the debugger, ensuring
appearance commonality.
Add more documentation in the header file.
trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
Implement the proposed command set. Command names are now words,
and several commands now have options allowing the user to override
the default print level or strictness of the command, or the
invocation conditions or action of a break point. Allows control
over command echoing and the scrolling of sequences of event reports.
Supports aliases, command file sourcing etc. Implements the retry
command, using the info in the fixed stack slots.
trace/mercury_trace.[ch]:
Extend the trace controls to support the new functionalities
required by the new debugger language, which are print levels,
variable-strictness commands, a more flexible finish command,
and the retry command.
Pass the command structure to MR_trace_event_report, since
the user can now forcibly terminate the scrolling of reports.
trace/mercury_trace_alias.[ch]:
New module to manage aliases for the debugger.
trace/mercury_trace_help.[ch]:
New module to interface to browser/help.m.
trace/mercury_trace_spy.[ch]:
New module to manage break points. The test of whether an event
matches a break point is now much more efficient than before.
The new module also allows several breakpoints with different
actions and different invocation conditions (e.g. all ports,
entry port, interface ports or specific (possibly internal) port)
to be defined on the same procedure.
trace/mercury_trace_tables.[ch]:
New module to manage a table of the debuggable modules, in which
each such module is linked to the list of the layouts of all the
procedures defined in that module. This information allows the
debugger to turn the name of a predicate/function (possibly together
with its arity and mode number) into the procedure layout structure
required by the spy point module. Eventually it may also be useful
in supplying lists of identifiers for command line completion.
Modules for which no stack layout information is available will
not be included in the table, since do_init_modules will not
register any labels for them in the label table.
trace/Mmakefile:
Mention the new files.
runtime/mercury_array_macros.h:
A new file holding macros that can be useful in more than one module.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Mention the new file.
runtime/mercury_conf.h.in:
Mention a new configuration macro, MR_CANNOT_USE_STRUCTURE_ASSIGNMENT,
used by runtime/mercury_array_macros.h.
configure.in:
Find out whether we need to define MR_CANNOT_USE_STRUCTURE_ASSIGNMENT.
ADD TRACE DEPTH HISTOGRAMS
runtime/mercury_conf_param.h:
Document MR_TRACE_HISTOGRAM.
runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]:
Define the data structures for the histogram, and print the histogram
when a traced program exits if MR_TRACE_HISTOGRAM is set.
trace/mercury_trace.[ch]:
If MR_TRACE_HISTOGRAM is defined, record a count of the number of
events at each depth. This information can help us evaluate space-time
tradeoffs.
FACTOR OUT SHELL CODE HANDLING GRADE IMPLICATIONS
scripts/final_grade_options.sh-subr:
A new file to contain any code that implements implications between
grade flags; currently implements the implication debug -> use trail.
scripts/mgnuc.in:
scripts/ml.in:
Replace the code that is now in final_grade_options.sh-subr with
an inclusion of final_grade_options.sh-subr.
configure.in:
Handle final_grade_options.sh-subr as {init,parse}_grade_options.sh-subr
are handled.
SIMPLIFY THE MAINTAINANCE OF CONSISTENCY BETWEEN DEBUGGER CODE AND DOCUMENTATION
doc/Mmakefile:
Add rules for creating mdb_command_list, a C code fragment
that can included manually in trace/mercury_trace_internal.c
to supply the list of valid commands, and mdb_command_test.inp,
which is a list of invalid invocations of debugger commands,
which tests whether the help message for such invocations
can be located as expected.
doc/generate_mdb_command_list:
doc/generate_mdb_command_test:
Awk scripts to create mdb_command_list and mdb_command_test.inp
respectively from mdb_doc.
tools/bootcheck:
Copy mdb_command_test.inp from doc to tests/debugger.
tests/debugger/Mmakefile:
Add a new test that checks whether we get an internal error, unable
to locate the right help node, for each invalid command invocation in
mdb_command_test.inp.
UPDATE TEST CASES
tests/debugger/Mmakefile:
Reenable queens. Conform to the new set of options.
tests/debugger/*.inp:
tests/debugger/*.exp:
Update the inputs and expected outputs of the debugger test cases
to use the new command set and output formats.

Extend the new failure handling method to optionally preserve an invariant
Estimated hours taken: 30
Extend the new failure handling method to optionally preserve an invariant
required by accurate gc: always being able to tell with respect to what MR_sp
or MR_curfr to interpret the stackvars and framevars referred to by the label
whose address is the redoip slot of a nondet stack frame. This basically
requires limitations on the hijacking of redoip/redofr slot pairs.
compiler/notes/failure.html:
Describe the new extension.
Change the terminology to conform to what is used in the code.
compiler/llds.m:
For each temporary frame on the nondet stack, specify the native
stack of the procedure that created it. This is so that we know
whether the temporary frame ought to have the fourth slot that
specifies the right value of MR_sp. (The fourth slot is included
only in temporary nondet stack frames created procedures that live
on the det stack; procedures that live on the nondet stack never
have any of their variables on the det stack.)
Remove the modframe llds instruction, since it does not specify
what frame's redoip slot it is assigning to. This is error-prone
(see peephole.m below). We were not using modframe much anyway.
compiler/llds_out.m:
compiler/opt_debug.m:
Emit either mktempframe or mkdettempframe depending on the new
field in temp_frame.
compiler/code_info.m:
Add a fourth item to the failure state, which states whether
the top frame of the nondet stack may be hijacked. Initialize
it from the option --allow-hijacks. If about to do a hijack
but the failure state says no, create a temporary frame instead.
Separate out the code for creating temporary frames, since it
is now called from more than one place. Generalize the code
to handle the new type of temp frame.
compiler/code_info.m:
compiler/ite_gen.m:
Simplify the way we transmit information about the location
of the address of the nondet stack frame in which the soft cut
is performed from the start of the condition to its end.
Remove the predicate code_info__maybe_push_temp_frame;
its functionality is now achieved in code_info.m by disabling
and restoring --allow-hijacks around the generation of code
for the condition. This also allows us to get rid of the code
that finds out whether the condition can do any hijacking.
compiler/opt_util.m:
Rename next_modframe as next_assign_to_redoip, and add an additional
argument that says which frame's redoip we are after.
compiler/peephole.m:
Use the new argument of opt_util__next_assign_to_redoip to fix a bug
where a mkframe of a temporary frame (which leaves curfr unchanged)
that was followed a modframe (which assigns to the redoip of curfr)
was incorrectly optimized (the assignment to the redoip slot was
applied to the temporary frame, not the ordinary one).
compiler/*.m:
Minor changes to accommodate the disappearance of modframe.
runtime/mercury_stacks.h:
Add macros to support four-word temp frames on the nondet stack.
Make the macros that access nondet stack frame slots start with MR_,
while keeping (redefined) macros needed for backward compatibility.
Remove the modframe macro.
Fix a dangling reference to PREDNM instead of MR_PREDNM.
runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c:
Modify the stack tracing code to allow for the new four-word temp
frames.
Use the new MR_ prefixed variants of the macros.
runtime/mercury_debug.h:
runtime/mercury_misc.[ch]:
Remove references to modframe.
tests/general/complex_failure.{m,exp}:
A new test case to tickle the various ways of handling nested
disjunctions and if-then-elses in the new code generator.
tests/general/Mmakefile:
Enable the new test case.
tests/{general,hard_coded}/space.{m,exp}:
Move this test case from general to hard_coded. Although NU-Prolog
can execute it, it does not give the same answers as Mercury due to
a different default ordering and a difference in integer size (26-bit
integers in NU-Prolog) that changes the behavior of the pseudo
random-number generator.
tests/hard_coded/cycles2.exp:
Add the missing .exp file for this existing test case.
tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
Enable the old test cases cycles, cycles2 and space, since
we now pass them.

Implement new methods of handling failures and the end points of branched
Estimated hours taken: 260
Implement new methods of handling failures and the end points of branched
control structures.
compiler/notes/failure.html:
Fix an omission about the handling of resume_is_known in if-then-elses.
(This omission lead to a bug in the implementation.)
Optimize cuts across multi goals when curfr is known to be equal
to maxfr.
Clarify the wording in several places.
compiler/code_info.m:
Completely rewrite the methods for handling failure.
Separate the fields of code_info into three classes: those which
do not change after initialization, those which record state that
depends on where in the HLDS goal we are, and those which contain
persistent data such as label and cell counters.
Rename grab_code_info and slap_code_info as remember_position
and reset_to_position, and add a wrapper around the remembered
code_info to make it harder to make mistakes in its use.
(Only the location-dependent fields of the remembered code_info
are used, but putting only them into a separate data structure would
result in more, not less, memory being allocated.)
Gather the predicates that deal with handling branched control
structures into a submodule.
Reorder the declarations and definitions of access predicates
to conform to the new order of fields.
Reorder the declarations and definitions of the failure handling
submodule to better reflect the separation of higher-level and
lower-level predicates.
compiler/code_gen.m:
Replace code_gen__generate_{det,semi,non}_goal_2 with a single
predicate, since for most HLDS constructs the code here is the same
anyway (the called preds check the code model when needed).
Move classification of the various kinds of unifications to unify_gen,
since that is where it belongs.
Move responsibility for initializing the code generator's trace
info to code_info.
Move the generation of code for negations to ite_gen, since the
handling of negations is a cut-down version of the handling of
negations. This should make the required double maintenance easier,
and more likely to happen.
compiler/disj_gen.m:
compiler/ite_gen.m:
These are the two modules that handle most failures; they have
undergone a significant rewrite. As part of this rewrite, factor
out the remaining common code between model_non and model_{det,semi}
goals.
compiler/unify_gen.m:
Move classification of the various kinds of unifications here from
code_gen. This allows us to keep several previously exported
predicates private.
compiler/call_gen.m:
Factor out some code that was common to ordinary calls, higher order
calls and method calls. Move the common code that checks whether
we are doing tracing to trace.m.
Replace call_gen__generate_{det,semi,nondet}_builtin with a single
predicate.
Delete the commented out call_gen__generate_complicated_unify,
since it will never be needed and in any case suffered from
significant code rot.
compiler/llds.m:
Change the mkframe instruction so that depending on one of its
arguments, it can create either ordinary frames, or the cut-down
frames used by the new failure handling algorithm (they have only
three fixed fields: prevfr, redoip and redofr).
compiler/llds_out.m:
Emit a #define MR_USE_REDOFR before including mercury_imp.h, to
tell the runtime we are using the new failure handling scheme.
This effectively changes the grade of the compiled module.
Emit MR_stackvar and MR_framevar instead of detstackvar and framevar.
This is a step towards cleaning up the name-space, and a step towards
making both start numbering at 0. For the time being, the compiler
internally still starts counting framevars at 0; the code in llds_out.m
adds a +1 offset.
compiler/trace.m:
Change the way trace info is initialized to fit in with the new
requirements of code_info.m.
Move the "are we tracing" check from the callers to the implementation
of trace__prepare_for_call.
compiler/*.m:
Minor changes in accordance with the major ones above.
compiler/options.m:
Introduce a new option, allow_hijacks, which is set to "yes" by
default. It is not used yet, but the idea is that when it is set to no,
the code generator will not generate code that hijacks the nondet
stack frame of another procedure invocation; instead, it will create
a new temporary nondet stack frame. If the current procedure is
model_non, it will have three fields: prevfr, redoip and redofr.
If the current procedure is model_det or model_semi, it will have
a fourth field that is set to the value of MR_sp. The idea is that
the runtime system, which will be able to distinguish between
ordinary frames (whose size is at least 5 words), 3-word and 4-word
temporary frames, will now be able to use the redofr slots of
all three kinds of frames and the fourth slot values of 4-word
temporary frames as the addresses relative to which framevars
and detstackvars respectively ought to be offset in stack layouts.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Turn off allow_hijacks if the gc method is accurate.
runtime/mercury_stacks.h:
Change the definitions for the nondet stack handling macros
to accommodate the new nondet stack handling discipline.
Define a new macro for creating temp nondet frames.
Define MR_based_stackvar and MR_based_framevar (both of which start
numbering slots at 1), and express other references, including
MR_stackvar and MR_framevar and backward compatible definitions of
detstackvar and framevar for hand-written C code, in terms of those
two.
runtime/mercury_stack_trace.[ch]:
Add a new function to print a dump of the fixed elements nondet stack,
for debugging my changes. (The dump does not include variable values.)
runtime/mercury_trace_internal.c:
Add a new undocumented command "D" for dumping the nondet stack
(users should not know about this command, since the output is
intelligible only to implementors).
Add a new command "toggle_echo" that can cause the debugger to echo
all commands. When the input to the debugger is redirected, this
echo causes the output of the session to be much more readable.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
Save the address of the artificial bottom nondet stack frame,
so that the new function in mercury_stack_trace.c can find out
where to stop.
runtime/mercury_engine.c:
runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
Put MR_STACK_TRACE_THIS_MODULE at the tops of these modules, so that
the labels they define (e.g. do_fail and global_success) are registered
in the label table when their module initialization functions are
called. This is necessary for a meaningful nondet stack dump.
runtime/mercury_grade.h:
Add a new component to the grade string that specifies whether
the code was compiled with the old or the new method of handling
the nondet stack. This is important, because modules compiled
with different nondet stack handling disciplines are not compatible.
This component depends on whether MR_USE_REDOFR is defined or not.
runtime/mercury_imp.h:
If MR_DISABLE_REDOFR is defined, undefine off MR_USE_REDOFR before
including mercury_grade.h. This is to allow people to continue
working on un-updated workspaces after this change is installed;
they should put "EXTRA_CFLAGS = -DMR_DISABLE_REDOFR" into
Mmake.stage.params. (This way their stage1 will use the new method
of handling failure, while their stage2 2&3 will use the old one.)
This change should be undone once all our workspaces have switched
over to the new failure handling method.
tests/hard_coded/cut_test.{m,exp}:
A new test case to tickle the various ways of handling cuts in the
new code generator.
tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
Enable the new test case.

This change introduces interface tracing, and makes it possible to successfully
Estimated hours taken: 50
This change introduces interface tracing, and makes it possible to successfully
bootstrap the compiler with tracing (either interface or full).
compiler/options.m:
Change the bool options --generate-trace into a string option --trace
with three valid values: minimal, interface and full. The last two mean
what they say; the intention is that eventually minimal will mean
no tracing in non-tracing grades and interface tracing in tracing
grades.
compiler/globals.m:
Add a new global for the trace level.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Convert the argument of --trace to a trace level.
Use only consistent 4-space indentation in the deeply nested
if-then-else.
compiler/trace.m:
Implement interface tracing.
Rename trace__generate_depth_reset_code as trace__prepare_for_call,
since it does more than reset the depth if this module is compiled
with interface tracing.
Do not check whether tracing is enabled before calling MR_trace;
let MR_trace make the check. This trades increased non-tracing
execution time for a substantial code size reduction (which may
in turn benefit execution time).
compiler/call_gen.m:
Call trace__generate_depth_reset_code by its new name.
compiler/code_info.m:
Fix a bug in the handling of non/semi commits. When entering a commit,
we used to push a clone of whatever the top failure continuation was.
However, the resume setup for this continuation could have started
with a label that assumed that the resume vars were in their original
locations (which are often registers), whereas the method of
backtracking to that point only guarantees the survival of stack slots,
not registers.
(This bug caused two lines of incorrect code to be generated among
the approx 30 million lines of code in the stage 2 compiler when
compiled with tracing.)
Fix another bug (previously untriggered as far as I know) in the
handling of multi/det commits. This one was breaking the invariant
that the resume vars set of each entry on the failure continuation
stack included the resume vars set of every other entry below it,
which meant that the values of these resume vars were not guaranteed
to be preserved.
compiler/stack_layout.m:
Make layout structures local to their module. They are not (yet)
referred to by name from other modules, and by declaring them
to be global we caused their names to be included even in stripped
executables, adding several megabytes to the size of the binary.
(The names are not stripped because a dynamically linked library
may want to refer to them.)
Change the mercury_data__stack_layout__ prefix on the names of
generated globals vars to just mercury_data__layout__. It is now
merely too long instead of far too long.
Include the label number in the label layout structure and the number
of typeinfo variables in a var_info structure only with native gc.
Their only use is in debugging native gc.
Fix some documentation rot.
compiler/llds.m:
Add a new field to the pragma_c instruction that says whether the
compiler-generated C code fragments access any stack variables.
compiler/frameopt.m:
Use the new field in pragma_c's to avoid a bug. Because frameopt was
assuming that the pragma_c instruction that filled in the stack slots
containing the call sequence number and depth did not access the stack,
it moved the pragma_c before the incr_sp that allocates the frame
(it was trying to get it out of the loop).
compiler/*.m:
Minor changes to set or ignore the extra field in pragma_c, to refer
to layout structures via the new prefix, or to handle the --trace
option.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Update the documentation for --trace.
runtime/mercury_types.h:
Add the type Unsigned.
runtime/mercury_goto.h:
Use the shorter layout prefix.
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
Use the shorter layout prefix, and include the label number only with
native gc.
runtime/mercury_trace.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_trace_internal.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_trace_external.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_trace_util.[ch]:
Divide the old mercury_trace.[ch] into several components, with one
module for the internal debugger, one for the interface to the
external debugger, one for utilities needed by both. Mercury_trace.c
now has only the top-level stuff that steers between the two
debuggers.
runtime/mercury_trace.[ch]:
Add the new global variable MR_trace_from_full. Before each call,
the calling procedure assigns TRUE to this variable if the caller
is fully traced, and FALSE otherwise. Interface traced procedures
generate trace events only if this variable is TRUE when they are
called (fully traced callee procedures ignore the initial value of
the variable).
Make MR_trace return immediately without doing anything unless
tracing is enabled and a new extra argument to MR_trace is TRUE.
This extra argument is always TRUE for trace events in fully traced
procedures, while for trace events from interface traced procedures,
its value is set from the value of MR_trace_from_full at the time
that the procedure was called (i.e. the event is ignored unless the
interface traced procedure was called from a fully traced procedure).
runtime/mercury_trace.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_trace_internal.[ch]:
For global variables that are stored in stack slots, make their type
Word rather than int.
Use a new function MR_trace_event_report instead of calling
MR_trace_event with a NULL command structure pointer to indicate
that the event is to be reported but there is to be no user
interaction.
Use %ld formats in printfs and casts to long for better portability.
runtime/mercury_trace_internal.c:
Save trace-related globals across calls to Mercury library code
in the debugger, since otherwise any trace events in this code
could screw up e.g. the event number or the call number sequence.
Create separate functions for printing port names and determinisms.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.h:
Disable the tracing of the initialization and finalization code
written in Mercury.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Update for the new source and header files.
tests/debugger/{debugger_regs,interpreter,queens}_lib.{m,inp,exp}:
One new copy of each existing test case. These ones are intended
to be used when the stage 2 library is compiled with tracing, which
affects the tests by adding events for the library procedures called
from the test programs.
The .m files are the same as before; one of the .inp files is a bit
different; the .exp files reflect the correct output when the library
is compiled with full tracing.
tests/debugger/Mmakefile:
Provide separate targets for the new set of test cases.
Use --trace full instead of --generate-trace.
tests/debugger/runtests:
Try both the new set of test cases if the old set fails, and report
failure only if both sets fail. This is simpler than trying to figure
out which set should be really tested, and the probability of a false
positive is negligible.

Add support for nested modules.
Estimated hours taken: 50
Add support for nested modules.
- module names may themselves be module-qualified
- modules may contain `:- include_module' declarations
which name sub-modules
- a sub-module has access to all the declarations in the
parent module (including its implementation section).
This support is not yet complete; see the BUGS and LIMITATIONS below.
LIMITATIONS
- source file names must match module names
(just as they did previously)
- mmc doesn't allow path names on the command line any more
(e.g. `mmc --make-int ../library/foo.m').
- import_module declarations must use the fully-qualified module name
- module qualifiers must use the fully-qualified module name
- no support for root-qualified module names
(e.g. `:parent:child' instead of `parent:child').
- modules may not be physically nested (only logical nesting, via
`include_module').
BUGS
- doesn't check that the parent module is imported/used before allowing
import/use of its sub-modules.
- doesn't check that there is an include_module declaration in the
parent for each module claiming to be a child of that parent
- privacy of private modules is not enforced
-------------------
NEWS:
Mention that we support nested modules.
library/ops.m:
library/nc_builtin.nl:
library/sp_builtin.nl:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Add `include_module' as a new prefix operator.
Change the associativity of `:' from xfy to yfx
(since this made parsing module qualifiers slightly easier).
compiler/prog_data.m:
Add new `include_module' declaration.
Change the `module_name' and `module_specifier' types
from strings to sym_names, so that module names can
themselves be module qualified.
compiler/modules.m:
Add predicates module_name_to_file_name/2 and
file_name_to_module_name/2.
Lots of changes to handle parent module dependencies,
to create parent interface (`.int0') files, to read them in,
to output correct dependencies information for them to the
`.d' and `.dep' files, etc.
Rewrite a lot of the code to improve the readability
(add comments, use subroutines, better variable names).
Also fix a couple of bugs:
- generate_dependencies was using the transitive implementation
dependencies rather than the transitive interface dependencies
to compute the `.int3' dependencies when writing `.d' files
(this bug was introduced during crs's changes to support
`.trans_opt' files)
- when creating the `.int' file, it was reading in the
interfaces for modules imported in the implementation section,
not just those in the interface section.
This meant that the compiler missed a lot of errors.
library/graph.m:
library/lexer.m:
library/term.m:
library/term_io.m:
library/varset.m:
compiler/*.m:
Add `:- import_module' declarations to the interface needed
by declarations in the interface. (The previous version
of the compiler did not detect these missing interface imports,
due to the above-mentioned bug in modules.m.)
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/intermod.m:
Change mercury_compile__maybe_grab_optfiles and
intermod__grab_optfiles so that they grab the opt files for
parent modules as well as the ones for imported modules.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Minor changes to handle parent module dependencies.
(Also improve the wording of the warning about trans-opt
dependencies.)
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
Ignore `:- include_module' declarations.
compiler/module_qual.m:
A couple of small changes to handle nested module names.
compiler/prog_out.m:
compiler/prog_util.m:
Add new predicates string_to_sym_name/3 (prog_util.m) and
sym_name_to_string/{2,3} (prog_out.m).
compiler/*.m:
Replace many occurrences of `string' with `module_name'.
Change code that prints out module names or converts
them to strings or filenames to handle the fact that
module names are now sym_names intead of strings.
Also change a few places (e.g. in intermod.m, hlds_module.m)
where the code assumed that any qualified symbol was
fully-qualified.
compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
Move sym_name_and_args/3, parse_qualified_term/4 and
parse_qualified_term/5 preds from prog_io_goal.m to prog_io.m,
since they are very similar to the parse_symbol_name/2 predicate
already in prog_io.m. Rewrite these predicates, both
to improve maintainability, and to handle the newly
allowed syntax (module-qualified module names).
Rename parse_qualified_term/5 as `parse_implicit_qualified_term'.
compiler/prog_io.m:
Rewrite the handling of `:- module' and `:- end_module'
declarations, so that it can handle nested modules.
Add code to parse `include_module' declarations.
compiler/prog_util.m:
compiler/*.m:
Add new predicates mercury_public_builtin_module/1 and
mercury_private_builtin_module/1 in prog_util.m.
Change most of the hard-coded occurrences of "mercury_builtin"
to call mercury_private_builtin_module/1 or
mercury_public_builtin_module/1 or both.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Add llds_out__sym_name_mangle/2, for mangling module names.
compiler/special_pred.m:
compiler/mode_util.m:
compiler/clause_to_proc.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Move the predicates in_mode/1, out_mode/1, and uo_mode/1
from special_pred.m to mode_util.m, and change various
hard-coded definitions to instead call these predicates.
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Ensure that the type names `type_info' and `typeclass_info' are
module-qualified in the generated code. This avoids a problem
where the code generated by polymorphism.m was not considered
type-correct, due to the type `type_info' not matching
`mercury_builtin:type_info'.
compiler/check_typeclass.m:
Simplify the code for check_instance_pred and
get_matching_instance_pred_ids.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Disallow directory names in command-line arguments.
compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Add a `--make-private-interface' option.
The private interface file `<module>.int0' contains
all the declarations in the module; it is used for
compiling sub-modules.
scripts/Mmake.rules:
scripts/Mmake.vars.in:
Add support for creating `.int0' and `.date0' files
by invoking mmc with `--make-private-interface'.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document `--make-private-interface' and the `.int0'
and `.date0' file extensions.
doc/reference_manual.texi:
Document nested modules.
util/mdemangle.c:
profiler/demangle.m:
Demangle names with multiple module qualifiers.
tests/general/Mmakefile:
tests/general/string_format_test.m:
tests/general/string_format_test.exp:
tests/general/string__format_test.m:
tests/general/string__format_test.exp:
tests/general/.cvsignore:
Change the `:- module string__format_test' declaration in
`string__format_test.m' to `:- module string_format_test',
because with the original declaration the `__' was taken
as a module qualifier, which lead to an error message.
Hence rename the file accordingly, to avoid the warning
about file name not matching module name.
tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.m:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.err_exp:
Regression test to check that the compiler reports
errors for missing `import_module' in the interface section.
tests/invalid/*.err_exp:
tests/warnings/unused_args_test.exp:
tests/warnings/unused_import.exp:
Update the expected diagnostics output for the test cases to
reflect a few minor changes to the warning messages.
tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
tests/hard_coded/parent.m:
tests/hard_coded/parent.child.m:
tests/hard_coded/parent.exp:
tests/hard_coded/parent2.m:

Fix a bug that broke Tom's implementation of a random number generator at -O6.
Estimated hours taken: 3
Fix a bug that broke Tom's implementation of a random number generator at -O6.
The bug appeared only if value numbering is run for a second time after most
other low-level optimizations have been repeated several times. The problem
was that the first invocation of value numbering introduces a temp variable,
and the second one deletes the assignment to the temp variable because an
if_val with a liveness annotation comes between this assignment and the
first use of the temp variable.
compiler/livemap.m:
When an if_val is preceded by a livevals annotation,
do not replace the current liveness with the contents
of the annotation. Instead, just include the contents
of the annotation in the current set of live lvals.
tests/hard_coded/rnd.{m,exp}:
Tom's test case.

Implement nondet pragma C codes.
Estimated hours taken: 40
Implement nondet pragma C codes.
runtime/mercury_stacks.h:
Define a new macro, mkpragmaframe, for use in the implementation
of nondet pragma C codes. This new macro includes space for a
struct with a given sruct tag in the nondet stack frame being created.
compiler/{prog_data.m,hlds_goal.m}:
Revise the representation of pragma C codes, both as the item and
in the HLDS.
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Parse nondet pragma C declarations.
Fix the indentation in some places.
compiler/llds.m:
Include an extra argument in mkframe instructions. This extra argument
gives the details of the C structure (if any) to be included in the
nondet stack frame to be created.
Generalize the LLDS representation of pragma C codes. Instead of a
fixed sequence of <assign from inputs, user c code, assign to outputs>,
let the sequence contain these elements, as well as arbitrary
compiler-generated C code, in any order and possibly with repetitions.
This flexibility is needed for nondet pragma C codes.
Add a field to pragma C codes to say whether they can call Mercury.
Some optimizations can do a better job if they know that a pragma C
code cannot call Mercury.
Add another field to pragma C codes to give the name of the label
they refer to (if any). This is needed to prevent labelopt from
incorrectly optimizing away the label definition.
Add a new alternative to the type pragma_c_decl, to describe the
declaration of the local variable that points to the save struct.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Output mkframe instructions that specify a struct as invoking the new
mkpragmaframe macro, and make sure that the struct is declared just
before the procedure that uses it.
Other minor changes to keep up with the changes to the representation
of pragma C code in the LLDS, and to make the output look a bit nicer.
compiler/pragma_c_gen.m:
Add code to generate code for nondet pragma C codes. Revise the utility
predicates and their data structures a bit to make this possible.
compiler/code_gen.m:
Add code for the necessary special handling of prologs and epilogs
of procedures defined by nondet pragma C codes. The prologs need
to be modified to include a programmer-defined C structure in the
nondet stack frame and to communicate the location of this structure
to the pragma C code, whereas the functionality of the epilog is
taken care of by the pragma C code itself.
compiler/make_hlds.m:
When creating a proc_info for a procedure defined by a pragma C code,
we used to insert unifications between the headvars and the vars of
the pragma C code into the body goal. We now perform substitutions
instead. This removes a factor that would complicate the generation
of code for nondet pragma C codes.
Pass a moduleinfo down the procedures that warn about singletons
(and other basic scope errors). When checking whether to warn about
an argument of a pragma C code not being mentioned in the C code
fragment, we need to know whether the argument is input or output,
since input variables should appear in some code fragments in a
nondet pragma C code and must not appear in others. The
mode_is_{in,out}put checks need the moduleinfo.
(We do not need to check for any variables being mentioned where
they shouldn't be. The C compiler will fail in the presence of any
errors of that type, and since those variables could be referred
to via macros whose definitions we do not see, we couldn't implement
a reliable test anyway.)
compiler/opt_util.m:
Recognize that some sorts of pragma_c codes cannot affect the data
structures that control backtracking. This allows peepholing to
do a better job on code sequences produced for nondet pragma C codes.
Recognize that the C code strings inside some pragma_c codes refer to
other labels in the procedure. This prevents labelopt from incorrectly
optimizing away these labels.
compiler/dupelim.m:
If a label is referred to from within a C code string, then do not
attempt to optimize it away.
compiler/det_analysis.m:
Remove a now incorrect part of an error message.
compiler/*.m:
Minor changes to conform to changes to the HLDS and LLDS data
structures.

This change implements typeclasses. Included are the necessary changes to
Estimated hours taken: 500 or so This change implements typeclasses. Included are the necessary changes to the compiler, runtime and library. compiler/typecheck.m: Typecheck the constraints on a pred by adding constraints for each call to a pred/func with constraints, and eliminating constraints by applying context reduction. While reducing the constraints, keep track of the proofs so that polymorphism can produce the tyepclass_infos for eliminated constraints. compiler/polymorphism.m: Perform the source-to-source transformation which turns code with typeclass constraints into code without constraints, but with extra "typeclass_info", or "dictionary" parameters. Also, rather than always having a type_info directly for each type variable, sometimes the type_info is hidden inside a typeclass_info. compiler/bytecode*.m: Insert some code to abort if bytecode generation is used when typeclasses are used. compiler/call_gen.m: Generate code for a class_method_call, which forms the body of a class method (by selecting the appropriate proc from the typeclass_info). compiler/dead_proc_elim.m: Don't eliminate class methods if they are potentially used outside the module compiler/hlds_data.m: Define data types to store: - the typeclass definitions - the instances of a class - "constraint_proof". ie. the proofs of redundancy of a constraint. This info is used by polymorphism to construct the typeclass_infos for a constraint. - the "base_tyepclass_info_constant", which is analagous the the base_type_info_constant compiler/hlds_data.m: Define the class_method_call goal. This goal is inserted into the body of class method procs, and is responsible for selecting the appropriate part of the typeclass_info to call. compiler/hlds_data.m: Add the class table and instance table to the module_info. compiler/hlds_out.m: Output info about base_typeclass_infos and class_method_calls compiler/hlds_pred.m: Change the representation of the locations of type_infos from "var" to type_info_locn, which is either a var, or part of a typeclass_info, since now the typeclass_infos contain the type_infos for the type that they constrain. Add constraints to the pred_info. Add constraint_proofs to the pred_info (so that typeclass.m can annotate the pred_info with the reasons that constraints were eliminated, so that polymorphism.m can in turn generate the typeclass_infos for the constraints). Add the "class_method" marker. compiler/lambda.m: A feable attempt at adding class ontexts to lambda expressions, untested and almost certainly not working. compiler/llds_out.m: Output the code addresses for do_*det_class_method, and output appropriately mangled symbol names for base_typeclass_infos. compiler/make_hlds.m: Add constraints to the types on pred and func decls, and add class and instance declarations to the class_table and instance_table respectively. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Add the check_typeclass pass. compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Output constraints of pred and funcs, and output typeclass and instance declarations. compiler/module_qual.m: Module qualify typeclass names in pred class contexts, and qualify the typeclass and instance decls themselves. compiler/modules.m: Output typeclass declarations in the short interface too. compiler/prog_data.m: Add the "typeclass" and "instance" items. Define the types to store information about the declarations, including class contexts on pred and func decls. compiler/prog_io.m: Parse constraints on pred and func declarations. compiler/prod_out.m: Output class contexts on pred and func decls. compiler/type_util.m: Add preds to apply a substitution to a class_constraint, and to a list of class constraints. Add type_list_matches_exactly/2. Also add typeclass_info and base_typeclass_info as types which should not be optimised as no_tag types (seeing that we cheat a bit about their representation). compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Add notes on module qualification of class contexts. Needs expansion to include more stuff on typeclasses. compiler/*.m: Various minor changes. New Files: compiler/base_typeclass_info.m: Produce one base_typeclass_info for each instance declaration. compiler/prog_io_typeclass.m: Parse typeclass and instance declarations. compiler/check_typeclass.m: Check the conformance of an instance declaration to the typeclass declaration, including building up a proof of how superclass constraints are satisfied so that polymorphism.m is able to construct the typeclass_info, including the superclass typeclass_infos. library/mercury_builtin.m: Implement that base_typeclass_info and typeclass_info types, as well as the predicates type_info_from_typeclass_info/3 to extract a type_info from a typeclass_info, and superclass_from_typeclass_info/3 for extracting superclasses. library/ops.m: Add "typeclass" and "instance" as operators. library/string.m: Add a (in, uo) mode for string__length/3. runtime/mercury_ho_call.c: Implement do_call_*det_class_method, which are the pieces of code responsible for extracting the correct code address from the typeclass_info, setting up the arguments correctly, then executing the code. runtime/mercury_type_info.h: Macros for accessing the typeclass_info structure. |

Add support for memory profiling.
Estimated hours taken: 40 (+ unknown time by Zoltan)
Add support for memory profiling.
(A significant part of this change is actuallly Zoltan's work. Zoltan
did the changes to the compiler and a first go at the changes to the
runtime and library. I rewrote much of Zoltan's changes to the runtime
and library, added support for the new options/grades, added code to
interface with mprof, did the changes to the profiler, and wrote the
documentation.)
[TODO: add test cases.]
NEWS:
Mention support for memory profiling.
runtime/mercury_heap_profile.h:
runtime/mercury_heap_profile.c:
New files. These contain code to record heap profiling information.
runtime/mercury_heap.h:
Add new macros incr_hp_msg(), tag_incr_hp_msg(),
incr_hp_atomic_msg(), and tag_incr_hp_atomic_msg().
These are like the non-`msg' versions, except that if
PROFILE_MEMORY is defined, they also call MR_record_allocation()
from mercury_heap_profile.h to record heap profiling information.
Also, fix up the indentation in lots of places.
runtime/mercury_prof.h:
runtime/mercury_prof.c:
Added code to dump out memory profiling information to files
`Prof.MemoryWords' and `Prof.MemoryCells' (for use by mprof).
Change the format of the `Prof.Counts' file so that the
first line says what it is counting, the units, and a scale
factor. Prof.MemoryWords and Prof.MemoryCells can thus have
exactly the same format as Prof.Counts.
Also cleaned up the interface to mercury_prof.c a bit, and did
various other minor cleanups -- indentation changes, changes to
use MR_ prefixes, additional comments, etc.
runtime/mercury_prof_mem.h:
runtime/mercury_prof_mem.c:
Rename prof_malloc() as MR_prof_malloc().
Rename prof_make() as MR_PROF_NEW() and add MR_PROF_NEW_ARRAY().
runtime/mercury_wrapper.h:
Minor modifications to reflect the new interface to mercury_prof.c.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
runtime/mercury_label.c:
Rename the old `-p' (primary cache size) option as `-C'.
Add a new `-p' option to disable profiling.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Add mercury_heap_profile.[ch].
Put the list of files in alphabetical order.
Delete some obsolete stuff for supporting `.mod' files.
Mention that libmer_dll.h and libmer_globals.h are
produced by Makefile.DLLs.
runtime/mercury_imp.h:
Mention that libmer_dll.h is produced by Makefile.DLLs.
runtime/mercury_dummy.c:
Change a comment to refer to libmer_dll.h rather than
libmer_globals.h.
compiler/llds.m:
Add a new field to `create' and `incr_hp' instructions
holding the name of the type, for heap profiling.
compiler/unify_gen.m:
Initialize the new field of `create' instructions with
the appropriate type name.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Output incr_hp_msg() / tag_incr_hp_msg() instead of
incr_hp() / tag_incr_hp().
compiler/*.m:
Minor changes to most files in the compiler back-end to
accomodate the new field in `incr_hp' and `create' instructions.
library/io.m:
Add `io__report_full_memory_stats'.
library/benchmarking.m:
Add `report_full_memory_stats'. This uses the information saved
by runtime/mercury_heap_profile.{c,h} to print out a report
of memory usage by procedures and by types.
Also modify `report_stats' to print out some of that information.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
If `--statistics' is enabled, call io__report_full_memory_stats
at the end of main/2. This will print out full memory statistics,
if the compiler was compiled with memory profiling enabled.
compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
runtime/mercury_grade.h:
scripts/ml.in:
scripts/mgnuc.in:
scripts/init_grade_options.sh-subr:
scripts/parse_grade_options.sh-subr:
Add new option `--memory-profiling' and new grade `.memprof'.
Add `--time-profiling' as a new synonym for `--profiling'.
Also add `--profile-memory' for more fine-grained control:
`--memory-profiling' implies both `--profile-memory' and
`--profile-calls'.
scripts/mprof_merge_runs:
Update to handle the new format of Prof.Counts and to
also merge Prof.MemoryWords and Prof.MemoryCells.
profiler/options.m:
profiler/mercury_profile.m:
Add new options `--profile memory-words' (`-m'),
`--profile memory-cells' (`-M') and `--profile time' (`-t').
Thes options make the profiler select a different count file,
Prof.MemoryWords or Prof.MemoryCells instead of Prof.Counts.

profiler/generate_output.m:
Update to handle the new format of the counts file.
When reading the counts file, look at the first line of
the file to determine what is being profiled.
profiler/globals.m:
Add a new global variable `what_to_profile' that records
what is being profiled.
profiler/output.m:
Change the headings to reflect what is being profiled.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document memory profiling.
Document new options.
doc/user_guide.texi:
compiler/options.m:
Comment out the documentation for `.proftime'/`--profile-time',
since doing time and call profiling seperately doesn't work,
because the code addresses change when you recompile with a
different grade. Ditto for `.profmem'/`--profile-memory'.
Also comment out the documentation for
`.profcalls'/`--profile-calls', since it is redundant --
`.memprof' produces the same information and more.
configure.in:
Build a `.memprof' grade. (Hmm, should we do this only
if `--enable-all-grades' is specified?)
Don't ever build a `.profcalls' grade.

Fix a bug where tag_switch.m was generating references to non-existent
Estimated hours taken: 4 Fix a bug where tag_switch.m was generating references to non-existent labels for det switches that don't cover the full range of the type. llds.m: Add new alternative `do_not_reached' to the code_addr type. exprn_aux.m: dupelim.m: livemap.m: llds_out.m: opt_util.m: opt_debug.m: Add new code to handle `do_not_reached'. tag_switch.m: When generating tag switch jump tables for det switches that do not cover the whole type, which can happen if the initial inst of the switch variable is a bound(...) inst that represents a subtype, make sure that we don't generate references to undefined labels for cases that occur in the switch var's type but not in the switch var's initial inst. Instead, make such references refer to a label that jumps to `do_not_reached'. |

Add support for taking the addresses of words on the heap as well as on
Estimated hours taken: 7 Add support for taking the addresses of words on the heap as well as on on either stack. This will be used later to support tail recursion modulo constructor application as well as parallelism. The support provided is a first draft. Since nothing in the compiler currently generates code that uses the new facilities, they have not been tested yet beyond ensuring that they don't interfere with the old functionality of the compiler. llds: Add a new type, mem_ref, that denotes a reference to a stackvar, a framevar, or to a field of a cell on the heap. Add a new function symbol to the type rval: mem_addr(mem_ref), which represents the address of the word denoted by the mem_ref. Add a new function symbol to the type lval: mem_ref(rval). Given that Rval is an address, mem_ref(Rval) denotes the word at that address. The value of Rval should have originally come from a mem_addr(_) type rval, but that value could have been store in registers, stack slots etc since then. code_exprn, code_info, dupelim, exprn_aux, garbage_out, livemap, llds_common, llds_out, middle_rec, opt_debug, opt_util, vn_cost, vn_filter: Added code to handle the new mem_ref type and the new alternatives in lval and rval. exprn_aux: Make exprn_aux__substitute_lval_in_lval more thorough. vn_type: Add vn shadows of the new things in llds. vn_flush, vn_order, vn_util: Handle the new things in llds and/or their vn shadows. |

Take the code generator a big step closer to notes/ALLOCATION.
Estimated hours taken: _____ Take the code generator a big step closer to notes/ALLOCATION. The new code generator emits code that is smaller and faster than the code we used to emit. Nondet liveness is no longer used; nondet live sets are always empty. In code that was being modified anyway, remove its handling. Other uses will be removed later (this keeps this change from being far too big; as it is it is merely too big). Similarly for cont-lives. In several places, clarify the code that gathers several code pieces together. call_gen: Unset the failure continuation and flush the resume vars to their stack slots before nondet calls. Move the code that decides whether a nondet call can be a tailcall to code_info. code_aux: Remove the code to handle resume points, since these are now handled in the specific constructs that need them. Replace it with a sanity check. code_exprn: Add a predicate to place multiple vars. code_gen: Remove the predicate code_gen__generate_forced_goal, since it packaged together some operations that should be executed at different times. Don't unset the failure continuation after every nondet goal; this is now done in the constructs that need it. Modify the handling of negation to use resume point info according to notes/ALLOCATION. Remove the predicate code_gen__ensure_vars_are_saved which was use to save all lives variables to the stack before nondet disjunctions and if-then-elses; we don't do that anymore. code_info: Significantly simplify and document the handling of failure continuations, and make the types involved abstract types. Factor out common code in the handling of det and semi commits. Keep track of "zombies", variables that are dead wrt forward execution but whose values we need because they may be needed at a resume point we can reach. Remove several now unneeded predicates, and introduce new predicates to help other modules. code_util: Add a couple of predicates to check whether ia goal cannot fail before flushing all variables to the stack, and whether a goal cannot flush any variables to the stack. These are used in liveness to decide which entry labels will be needed at resume points. disj_gen: Unify the handling of det and semi disjunctions. Model the code handling of nondet disjunctions on the code handling pruned disjunctions. It is possible that the handling of nondet and pruned disjunctions can also be unified; the new code should make this significantly easier. Make the code conform to notes/ALLOCATION. This means saving only the variables mentioned in the resume_point field, not flushing all live variables to the stack at the start of a nondet disjunction, handling zombies, and using the new method of flushing variables at the ends of branched structures. ite_gen: Unify the handling of det and semi if-then-elses. Model the code handling of nondet if-then-elses on the code handling det/semi if-then-elses. It is possible that the handling of nondet and pruned if-then-elses can also be unified; the new code should make this significantly easier. Make the code conform to notes/ALLOCATION. This means saving only the variables mentioned in the resume_point field, not flushing all live variables to the stack at the start of a nondet if-then-else, handling zombies, and using the new method of flushing variables at the ends of branched structures. Apply the new rules about liveness in if-then-elses, which say that the else part is parallel not to the then part but to the conjunction of the condition and the then part. dense_switch, lookup_switch, string_switch, switch_gen, tag_switch, middle_rec: Use the new method of flushing variables at the ends of branched structures. Don't call remake_with_store map; switch_gen will do so. Fix an old bug in lookup_switch. The code in switch_gen which looked for the special case of a two-way switch used to use a heuristic to decide which one was recursive and which one was a base case. We now check the codes of the cases. hlds_goal: Adjust the structure of the resume_point field to make it easier to use. Add a more convenient access predicate. hlds_out: Don't print the nondet liveness and cont live fields, since they are not used anymore. Comment out the printing of the context field, which is rarely useful. Modify the printing of the resume_point field to conform to its new definition. live_vars: Use the resume_point field, not the nondetlives field, to decide which variables may be needed on backward execution. Remove some code copied from liveness.m. liveness: Put the several pieces of information we thread through the traversal predicates into a single tuple. Don't put variables which are local to one branch of a branched structure into the post-birth sets of other branches. Apply the new rules about liveness in if-then-elses, which say that the else part is parallel not to the then part but to the conjunction of the condition and the then part. Variables that are needed in the else part but not in the condition or the then part now die in at the start of the condition (they will be protected by the resume point on the condition). We now treat pruned and non-pruned disjunctions the same way wrt deadness; the old way was too conservative (it had to be). We still mishandle branches which produce some variables but can't succeed. mercury_compile: Liveness now prints its own progress message with -V; support this. store_alloc: When figuring out what variables need to be saved across calls, make sure that we put in interference arcs between those variables and those that are required by enclosing resume points. Don't compute cont-lives, since they are not used anymore. livemap: Fix the starting comment. |

Add a new option, --assume-gmake. Rename the existing option
Estimated hours taken: 5 options: Add a new option, --assume-gmake. Rename the existing option --optimize-constructor-recursion to --optimize-constructor-last-call, since it also affects last calls that are not recursive calls. modules.m If --assume-gmake is set, exploit the capabilities of gmake to produce significantly smaller .dep files (about 10% the size of the ones we produced before for mercury_compile). mercury_compile: Change --optimize-constructor-recursion to --optimize-constructor-last-call. hlds_out: Clean up the way we produce HLDS dumps. The new algorithm eliminates lines containing nothing but white space or a single comma or dot in procedure definitions. It should also be easier to modify. constraint, mode_errors: Use the new interface of a predicate in hlds_out. livemap: Make a predicate more self-contained. |

Fix a long-standing bug that caused all fixpoint iterations to stop
Estimated hours taken: 8 livemap: Fix a long-standing bug that caused all fixpoint iterations to stop too early. By causing value_numbering to miscompile the predicate mercury_compile__maybe_unused_args, this bug caused the unwanted printing of statistics for tests/warnings/unused_args_test. Fix also another bug: we did not process the control rval in computed gotos. To my knowledge this has never been tickled. Redesign the interface of the exported predicate slightly to make it more robust. frameopt, value_number: Use the modified interface of livemap. switch_detection: For a while now we have removed arms from switches if we knew from the instantiation of the control variable that those arms could not be executed. Sometimes this results in switches with no arms. If the control variable of the switch is never used after the switch, liveness won't see the occurrence in the switch construct as a use, and will kill the variable too early, cause the code generator to abort. We now turn switches with no arms into "fail"; this improves the code generated and avoids the bug. However, liveness should still be changed to consider the occurrence of a variable in the first arg of a switch a use. code_gen, vn_block: Formatting changes. |

Fix allocation to work properly for --args compact.
Estimated hours taken: 30+
arg_info:
Fix allocation to work properly for --args compact.
bytecode*:
Handle complex deconstruction unifications. Not really tested because
I can't find a test case.
bytecode_gen, call_gen, code_util:
Use the new method to handle builtin predicates/functions. We now
handle reverse mode arithmetic and unary plus/minus as builtins.
code_gen, code_init, follow_vars, hlds_pred:
Put back the initial follow_vars field of the proc_info, since this
may allow the code generator to emit better code at the starts of
of predicates.
inlining:
Don't inline recursive predicates.
goals_util:
Add a predicate to find out if a goal calls a particular predicate.
Used in inlining to find out if a predicate is recursive.
unused_args:
Remove code that used to set the mode of unused args to free->free.
Since this changes the arg from top_in to top_unused *without* code
in other modules being aware of the change, this screws up --args
compact.
llds, llds_out, garbage_out:
Prepare for the move to the new type_info structure by adding a new
"module" type for defining structures holding type_infos. Not
currently generated or output.
llds, opt_debug, opt_util, vn_type, vn_cost, vn_temploc:
Change the argument of temp to be a reg, not an int, allowing
floating point temporaries.
vn_type:
Add information about the number of floating point registers and
temporaries to the parameter structure (these are currently unused).
llds, dupelim, frameopt, livemap, middle_rec, value_number, vn_filter,
vn_verify:
Add an extra field to blocks giving the number of float temporaries.
options:
Add parameters to configure the number of floating point registers
and temporaries.
mercury_compile:
Add an extra excess assign phase at the start of the middle pass.
This should reduce the size of the code manipulated by the other
phases, and gives more accurate size information to inlining.
(The excess assign phase before code generation is I think still
needed since optimizations can introduce such assignments.)
value_number:
Optimize code sequences before and after assignments to curfr
separately, since such assignments change the meaning of framevars.
This fixes the bug that caused singleton variable warnings to contain
garbage.
vn_block, vn_flush, vn_order, vn_util:
Add special handling of assignments to curfr. This is probably
unnecessary after my change to value_number, and will be removed
again shortly :-(
vn_flush:
Improve the code generated by value numbering (1) by computing values
into the place that needs them in some special circumstances, and
(2) by fixing a bug that did not consider special registers to be
as fast as r1 etc.
vn_util:
Improve the code generated by value numbering by removing duplicates
from the list of uses of a value before trying to find out if there
is more than one use.
simplify:
Avoid overzealous optimization of main --> { ..., error(...) }.
handle_options:
Fix an error message.
code_aux:
Break an excessive long line.

Fixed a bug that caused restores of succip to be put in the wrong
Estimated hours taken: 5 peephole: Fixed a bug that caused restores of succip to be put in the wrong place, but only after predicate-wide value numbering. opt_debug: Added a couple of debugging predicates used in tracking down this bug. value_number: Fix a bug that left a livevals pseudo-op in the wrong place if a single instruction sequence contained more than one such pseudo-op. options: Add --debug-opt. Rename --vndebug to --debug-vn. Add --generate-bytecode. optimize, vn_debug: Use the new routines in opt_debug, and use the new/renamed options. store_alloc: Don't thread follow_vars through the module, since the follow_vars information is not attached directly to branched structures. We now also use the same slot to hold the store map computed by this pass; this should allow the later deletion of the store map slot from goal_infos. follow_code: Removed dead predicate. livemap: Added a comment. |

Make sure we don't change the goal being analyzed except possibly
Estimated hours taken: 20 det_analysis: Make sure we don't change the goal being analyzed except possibly for the introduction of `some's (which should not hurt anything). Make sure we don't print any error messages except in the final iteration, when all the inputs to the inference are stable. If the --debug-detism options is set, print messages about the progress of inference and checking. Also moved some code around. det_report: Distinguish the handling of warning messages and error messages. simplify: Use the new ability of det_report to separate warnings and errors. passes_aux: Add a new generic pass form, for use by simplify. option: Add --debug-detism (as above), --aditi, which at the moment only enables the disjunctive normal form transformation, and --inlining/--no-inlining, which set the other three flags involved in inlining depending on whether you want standard inlining or none at all. Follow_code used to be set twice and follow_vars not at all; I fixed this. Reenabled optimize_higher_order at -O3. Moved value numbering to -O4 and pred_value_number to -O5. This makes it easier to separate value numbering from the other optimizations (which are likely to be more effective). Divided options_help into sections to avoid excessive compilation times. store_alloc: Base the store map on the follow_vars info attached to the branched structure which I added recently, and not on the follow_vars map being passed around, since it will be more accurate. hlds_out: Print information about follow_vars and store_maps when -D is given. follow_code: Undo an old hack that change to follow_vars has made counterproductive. middle_rec: Fix a bug uncovered by the change to follow_code. When looking for a register to hold the counter, it is not enough to avoid picking a register that appears in the recursive case; we must also avoid registers that occur only in the base case. livemap: Mentioning the code address succip now causes the succip to be considered live. This may or may not fix the bug with pred_value_number miscompiling unused_args.m; the other changes have caused the input to value numbering to change, and they no longer trigger the problem. (Will try to test this later.) mercury_compile: Try to make sure that we print statistics only after passes that were actually executed. Also, reduce the number of lookups of the verbose option. Move some predicates so that the order of their appearance matches the current order of invocation. vn_table: Loosen a sanity check to let xnuc2 pass through it. code_exprn, switch_detection: Minor changes. |

Estimated hours taken: 1.5
Split llds into two parts. llds.m defines the data types, while llds_out.m
has the predicates for printing the code.
Removed the call_closure instruction. Instead, we use calls to the
system-defined addresses do_call_{det,semidet,nondet}_closure. This is
how call_closure was implemented already. The advantage of the new
implementation is that it allows jump optimization of what used to be
call_closures, without new code in jumpopt.

A Constraint Solver Interface For Mercury <thunderous applause> Estimated hours taken: 1 summer studentship This is the implementation of a fairly general constraint solver interface. If using a library grade *.cnstr, we emit C instructions to keep track of the solver's implicit state. This is done by storing and restoring 'tickets' - abstract handles on the solver's state. We emit a store_ticket() macro: -when entering the first disjunct of a disjunction -when entering the condition of an if-then-else We emit a restore_ticket() macro: -when entering a disjunct other than the first of a disjunction -when entering the else part of an if-then-else We emit a discard_ticket() macro: -after the restore_ticket() in the final disjunct of a disjunction -at the start of the 'then' part of an if-then-else The rules for emitting the macros is slightly more complicated than that shown above for if-then-elses (determinism of the parts must be taken into account). compiler/code_info.m: Get an llds store_ticket/restore_ticket etc. instruction compiler/disj_gen.m: Emit ticket macros in the appropriate places in a disjunction. compiler/dupelim.m: Handle the new llds instruction. compiler/frameopt.m: Handle the new llds instruction. compiler/handle_options.m: If the grade is *.cnstr, set the constraints option on. compiler/ite_gen.m: Emit ticket macros in the appopriate places in an if-then-else. compiler/livemap.m: Handle the new llds instruction. compiler/llds.m: Output the ticket macros. compiler/make_hlds.m: An irrelevant tidy-up. compiler/mercury_compile.pp: If the grade is *.cnstr, pass -DCONSTRAINTS to mgnuc compiler/middle_rec.m: Handle the new llds instruction. compiler/opt_*.m: Handle the new llds instruction. compiler/options.m: Introduce a new boolean option 'constraints'. compiler/shapes.m: Output a new shape - 'ticket'. compiler/unify_proc.m: Handle the new llds instruction. compiler/v*.m: Handle the new llds instruction. |

Undo dylan's changes in the names of some library entities,
Estimated hours taken: 1.5 Undo dylan's changes in the names of some library entities, by applying the following sed script s/term_atom/term__atom/g s/term_string/term__string/g s/term_integer/term__integer/g s/term_float/term__float/g s/term_context/term__context/g s/term_functor/term__functor/g s/term_variable/term__variable/g s/_term__/_term_/g s/std_util__bool_/bool__/g to all the `.m' and `.pp' files in the compiler and library directories. The reason for undoing these changes was to minimize incompatibilities with 0.4 (and besides, the changes were not a really good idea in the first place). I also moved `bool' to a separate module. The main reason for that change is to ensure that the `__' prefix is only used when it genuinely represents a module qualifier. (That's what dylan's changes were trying to acheive, but `term__' does genuinely represent a module qualifier.) compiler/*.m: Apply sed script above; where appropriate, add `bool' to the list of imported modules. |

This set of changes includes most of the work necessary for mode and determinism checking of higher-order predicates. prog_io.m: Change the syntax for lambda expressions: they need to have a determinism declaration. Lambda expressions must now look like this: lambda([X::in, Y::out] is det, ...goal...). ^^^^^^ Note that both the modes and the determinism are mandatory, not optional. hlds.m: Insert a determinism field in the lambda_goal structure. hlds_out.m, inlining.m, make_hlds.m, modes.m, polymorphism.m, quantification.m, switch_detection.m, typecheck.m: Modified to use lambda_goal/4 rather than lambda_goal/3. prog_io.m: Add a new field to the `ground' inst, of type `maybe(pred_inst_info)'. We use this to store the modes and determinism of higher-order predicate terms. code_info.m, inst_match.m, mercury_to_mercury.m, mode_util.m, modes.m, polymorphism.m, shapes.m, undef_modes.m: Modified to handle higher-order pred modes: use ground/2 rather than ground/1. (Note that modes.m still requires a bit more work on this.) llds.m: Add a new field to the call_closure/3 instruction to hold the caller address for use with profiling, since the C macros require a caller address. dup_elim.m, frame_opt.m, garbage_out.m, live_map.m, middle_rec.m, opt_debug.m, opt_util.m, value_number.m, vn_*.m: Modified to use call_closure/4 rather than call_closure/3. mercury_to_mercury.m: Export mercury_output_det for use by hlds_out.m. |

Implement unique modes. We do not handle local aliasing yet, so this
------------------------------------------------------- Implement unique modes. We do not handle local aliasing yet, so this is still not very useful, except for io__state. Destructive update is not yet implemented. Also note that this really only implements "mostly unique" variables that may be non-unique on backtracking - we don't check that you don't backtrack over I/O, for example. prog_io.m, mode_util.m, modes.m, inst_match.m: Major changes to Handle unique modes. mercury_to_mercury.m, polymorphism.m, prog_out.m, undef_modes.m: Use `ground(Uniqueness)' rather than just `ground'. compiler/*.m: Fix compile errors now that unique modes are enforced: add a few calls to copy/2, and comment out lots of unique mode declarations that caused problems. typecheck.m, mode_info.m: Hack around the use of unique modes, which doesn't work because we don't allow local aliasing yet: make the insts `uniq_type_info' and `uniq_mode_info' not unique at all, and add a call to copy/2 when extracting the io_state from type_info or mode_info. ------------------------------------------------------- Plus a couple of unrelated changes: hlds.m: Change the modes for the special predicates from `ground -> ground' to `in', so that any error messages that show those modes come out looking nicer. Add a new shared_inst_table for shared versions of user-defined insts. mercury_to_goedel.m: Use string__is_alnum_or_underscore. |

Put the comment about the contents of stack slots before the initial
code_gen.pp: Put the comment about the contents of stack slots before the initial label, since this way it will be preserved by optimizations. cse_detection.m: Extended the search to look for cses in if-then-elses and switches as well as disjunctions. Removed InstmapDelta from preds in which it was not being used. det_analysis.m: Make the diagnosis routines more robust. The changes here avoid the Philip's problems with lexical.m. jumpopt.m: Minor formatting changes. livemap.m: Avoid duplicating livevals instructions when optimizations are repeated, since this can confuse some optimizations. llds.m: Minor documentation change. make_hlds.m: Minor formatting change. mercury_compile.pp: Do not map arguments to registers if any semantic errors have been found. middle_rec.m and code_aux.m: Apply middle recursion only if tail recursion is not possible, since tail recursion yields more efficient code. opt_util.m: Added a predicate to recognize constant conditions in if_vals. Modified a predicate to make it better suited for frameopt. optimize.pp: Changed the way optimizations were repeated to allow better control. Repeat peephole once more after frameopt, since the new frameopt can benefit from this. options.m: Removed the --compile-to-c option, which was obsolete. Added an option for predicate-wide value numbering, which is off by default. Changed some of the default values of optimization flags to reduce compilation time while holding the loss of speed of generated code to a minimum. peephole.m: Look for if_vals whose conditions are constants, and eliminate the if_val or turn it into a goto depending on the value of the constant. Generalized the condition for optimizing incr_sp/decr_sp pairs. value_number.m: Added a prepass to separate primary tag tests in if-then-elses from the test of the secondary tag, which requires dereferencing the pointer. Added sanity check routines to test two aspects of the generated code. First, whether it produces the same values for the live variables as the original code, and second, whether it has moved any dereferences of a pointer before a test of the tag of that pointer. If either test fails, we use the old instruction sequence. vn_debug.m: New messages to announce the failure of the sanity checks. They are enabled by default, but of course can only appear if value numbering is turned on (it is still off by default). vn_flush.m: Threaded a list of forbidden lvals (lvals that may not be assigned to) through the flushing routines. When saving the old value of an lval that is being assigned to, we use this list to avoid modifying any of the values used on the right hand side of the assignment, even if the saving of an old value results in assignment that requires another save, and so on recursively. When the flushing of a node_lval referred to a shared vn, the uses of the access vns of the node_lvals were not being adjusted properly. Now they are. vn_order.m: The ctrl_vn phase of the ordering was designed to ensure that all nodes that need not come before a control node come after it. However, nodes were created after this phase operated, causing leakage of some value nodes in front of control nodes. Some of these led to pointer dereferences before tag tests, causing bus errors. The ctrl_vn phase is now last to avoid this problem. vn_table.m: Added an extra interface predicate to support the sanity checks in value_number. vn_util.m: The transformation of c1-e2 into (0-e2)+c1 during vnrval simplification could lead to an infinite loop in the compiler if c1 was zero. A test for this case now prevents the loop. |

fix the problem with destroying stack frames and creating
frameopt: fix the problem with destroying stack frames and creating them again later, accessing detstackvars that were earlier nominally destroyed. vn_livemap: renamed it to livemap since frameopt now uses it also. value_number, vn_*: Fixed some bugs. Reorganized the handling of blocks: they are now put in at the last minute before llds writes out the code. Made a start towards exploiting info about cheaper copies of values. optimize, options: Made value_numbering an iterated optimization. Added a new option to control how many times it is iterated together with other the jumpopt, peephole and labelopt. llds, call_gen, code_gen, code_info, middle_rec, opt_debug: changed type of the argument of livevals to plain set. Warning: in more than a week I haven't been able to fully test this change, dur to kryten's flakiness and bugs upstream of the optimizer. |
