010a9ecf74 Fix several bugs in deep profiling. These allow the compiler to bootstrap
Estimated hours taken: 30
Branches: main

Fix several bugs in deep profiling. These allow the compiler to bootstrap
again, *including* writing out the profiling data, with sanity checks enabled.
Some test cases still fail, but significantly fewer than before.

These fixes required several improvements in the infrastructure for low
level debugging in the LLDS grades.

compiler/deep_profiling.m:
	Mark calls that have a prepare_for_{normal,ho,...}_call inserted before
	them as impure, to prevent simplify from optimizing them away, e.g. as
	duplicate calls. This is needed because a prepare_for_{...}_call that
	is not followed immediately by the call port code of the callee leaves
	the profiling tree in a state that violates its invariants.

	Mark the redo port code of model_non predicates as needing to be
	preserved, even if determinism analysis would normally cause it to be
	cut by marking the disjunction it is part of (whose two disjuncts are
	the det exit port code and the failure redo port code) as det.

	Fix the generation of goal paths to match what the rest of the compiler
	does. Start number conjuncts, disjuncts and switch arms from 1, not 0,
	and do not reverse goal paths before attaching them to goals; they will
	be reversed when they are converted to strings.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	If a disjunct has determinism failure but is impure, treat it as being
	able to succeed when computing the max number of solutions of the
	disjunction as a whole, *provided* that some earlier disjuct could
	succeed. The idea is that ( impure failure ; det ) should be treated
	as det, since all backtracking is local within it, while disjunctions
	of the form ( det ; impure failure ) should be treated as multi, since
	we want to be able to backtrack to the second disjunct from *outside*
	the disjunction.

	At the moment, we do this not for all impure goals, but only for the
	impure goals that deep_profiling marks with the preserve_backtrack_into
	feature.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add the preserve_backtrack_into feature.

	Add utility predicates for handling the features of a goal directly,
	without explicitly dealing with its goal_info.

runtime/mercury_debug.[ch]:
	Add mechanisms for turning the printing of low level debugging messages
	on and off. Without this, enabling low level debugging can generate
	literally gigabytes of debugging output.

	The mechanisms all depend on numbering calls.

	One mechanism allows messages to be printed starting from calls in
	given ranges, by including e.g. -di100-200,300-400 in MERCURY_OPTIONS.

	Another mechanism allows N messages to be printed starting from calls
	to a given procedure or from calls at which next_call_site_dynamic
	has a given value. The value of N (the size of the block of calls)
	can be specified by include -dB<num> in MERCURY_OPTIONS. The name of
	the given procedure (actually the name of its entry label) can be
	specified by including -dj<entrylabel> in MERCURY_OPTIONS. The address
	of the call_site_dynamic structure to watch for is specified with the
	-dW<addr> option in MERCURY_OPTIONS, as before.

runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
	Add the global variables required to implement the new low level
	debugging functionality, as well as the option processing code required
	to set those global variables.

	Separate the flags controlling the printing of the values of stack
	control registers (sp, curfr etc) and ordinary registers (r1, r2 etc).
	Print ordinary registers only if explicitly requested.

runtime/mercury_engine.h:
	Add the required global flags.

runtime/mercury_deep_profiling.[ch]:
	Add two extra arguments to MR_deep_assert, and print them if an
	assertion fails. This makes it easier to decide what parameters to give
	to the new low level debugging mechanisms.

runtime/mercury_deep_*_port_body.h:
runtime/mercury_deep_rec_depth_*.h:
library/profiling_builtin.m:
	Pass the extra arguments to MR_deep_assert, and print low level
	debugging messages only if the relevant flag is set.

tools/lmc:
	Add mechanisms to add to the list of C compiler flags the program is
	compiled with by lmc.

41724c68de Add two new annotations for foreign_procs, tabled_for_descendant_io and
Estimated hours taken: 16
Branches: main

Add two new annotations for foreign_procs, tabled_for_descendant_io and
tabled_for_io_unitize.

By adding the tabled_for_descendant_io annotation to a foreign_proc with I/O
states, the programmer is asserting that the foreign_proc itself doesn't do
I/O, and nor does any foreign language code it calls, though the Mercury
predicates it calls may.

By adding the tabled_for_io_unitize annotation to a foreign_proc with I/O
states, the programmer is saying that both the foreign_proc itself and the
Mercury predicates it calls may do I/O. To avoid the I/O tabling problems
that would arise on retries from Mercury code called by the foreign_proc,
the programmer is requesting that the debugger treat calls to the foreign_proc
as a unit. This means that if I/O tabling is turned on, then the implementation
will disable both debugging and I/O tabling inside Mercury code called from
the foreign_proc.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add the tabled_for_descendant_io and tabled_for_io_unitize annotations.

	Parameterize the eval_table_io eval_method to accommodate the
	unitization of foreign_procs.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Add code to read in the tabled_for_descendant_io and
	tabled_for_io_unitize annotations.

compiler/table_gen.m:
	Handle the new annotations. Procedures with tabled_for_descendant_io
	annotations don't need to be transformed at all; procedures with
	tabled_for_io_unitize annotations need a small variation of the
	existing transformation.

	Fix an existing bug that made the HLDS not type-correct. Create new
	variables with the appropriate type; do not assume all new variables
	are c_pointers, since some are integers.

library/table_builtin.m:
	Add two new predicates that table_gen.m emits calls to on either side
	of the code of foreign_procs with tabled_for_io_unitize annotations.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
compiler/layout_out.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Update the mechanisms for printing out eval methods.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:

189b9215ae This diff implements stack slot optimization for the LLDS back end based on
Estimated hours taken: 400
Branches: main

This diff implements stack slot optimization for the LLDS back end based on
the idea that after a unification such as A = f(B, C, D), saving the
variable A on the stack indirectly also saves the values of B, C and D.

Figuring out what subset of {B,C,D} to access via A and what subset to access
via their own stack slots is a tricky optimization problem. The algorithm we
use to solve it is described in the paper "Using the heap to eliminate stack
accesses" by Zoltan Somogyi and Peter Stuckey, available in ~zs/rep/stackslot.
That paper also describes (and has examples of) the source-to-source
transformation that implements the optimization.

The optimization needs to know what variables are flushed at call sites
and at program points that establish resume points (e.g. entries to
disjunctions and if-then-elses). We already had code to compute this
information in live_vars.m, but this code was being invoked too late.
This diff modifies live_vars.m to allow it to be invoked both by the stack
slot optimization transformation and by the code generator, and allows its
function to be tailored to the requirements of each invocation.

The information computed by live_vars.m is specific to the LLDS back end,
since the MLDS back ends do not (yet) have the same control over stack
frame layout. We therefore store this information in a new back end specific
field in goal_infos. For uniformity, we make all the other existing back end
specific fields in goal_infos, as well as the similarly back end specific
store map field of goal_exprs, subfields of this new field. This happens
to significantly reduce the sizes of goal_infos.

To allow a more meaningful comparison of the gains produced by the new
optimization, do not save any variables across erroneous calls even if
the new optimization is not enabled.

compiler/stack_opt.m:
	New module containing the code that performs the transformation
	to optimize stack slot usage.

compiler/matching.m:
	New module containing an algorithm for maximal matching in bipartite
	graphs, specialized for the graphs needed by stack_opt.m.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Invoke the new optimization if the options ask for it.

compiler/stack_alloc.m:
	New module containing code that is shared between the old,
	non-optimizing stack slot allocation system and the new, optimizing
	stack slot allocation system, and the code for actually allocating
	stack slots in the absence of optimization.

	Live_vars.m used to have two tasks: find out what variables need to be
	saved on the stack, and allocating those variables to stack slots.
	Live_vars.m now does only the first task; stack_alloc.m now does
	the second, using code that used to be in live_vars.m.

compiler/trace_params:
	Add a new function to test the trace level, which returns yes if we
	want to preserve the values of the input headvars.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Document the new modules (as well as trace_params.m, which wasn't
	documented earlier).

compiler/live_vars.m:
	Delete the code that is now in stack_alloc.m and graph_colour.m.

	Separate out the kinds of stack uses due to nondeterminism: the stack
	slots used by nondet calls, and the stack slots used by resumption
	points, in order to allow the reuse of stack slots used by resumption
	points after execution has left their scope. This should allow the
	same stack slots to be used by different variables in the resumption
	point at the start of an else branch and nondet calls in the then
	branch, since the resumption point of the else branch is not in effect
	when the then branch is executed.

	If the new option --opt-no-return-calls is set, then say that we do not
	need to save any values across erroneous calls.

	Use type classes to allow the information generated by this module
	to be recorded in the way required by its invoker.

	Package up the data structures being passed around readonly into a
	single tuple.

compiler/store_alloc.m:
	Allow this module to be invoked by stack_opt.m without invoking the
	follow_vars transformation, since applying follow_vars before the form
	of the HLDS code is otherwise final can be a pessimization.

	Make the module_info a part of the record containing the readonly data
	passed around during the traversal.

compiler/common.m:
	Do not delete or move around unifications created by stack_opt.m.

compiler/call_gen.m:
compiler/code_info.m:
compiler/continuation_info.m:
compiler/var_locn.m:
	Allow the code generator to delete its last record of the location
	of a value when generating code to make an erroneous call, if the new
	--opt-no-return-calls option is set.

compiler/code_gen.m:
	Use a more useful algorithm to create the messages/comments that
	we put into incr_sp instructions, e.g. by distinguishing between
	predicates and functions. This is to allow the new scripts in the
	tool directory to gather statistics about the effect of the
	optimization on stack frame sizes.

library/exception.m:
	Make a hand-written incr_sp follow the new pattern.

compiler/arg_info.m:
	Add predicates to figure out the set of input, output and unused
	arguments of a procedure in several different circumstances.
	Previously, variants of these predicates were repeated in several
	places.

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Export some previously private utility predicates.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Turn off stack slot optimizations when debugging, unless
	--trace-optimized is set.

	Add a new dump format useful for debugging --optimize-saved-vars.

compiler/hlds_llds.m:
	New module for handling all the stuff specific to the LLDS back end
	in HLDS goal_infos.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Move all the relevant stuff into the new back end specific field
	in goal_infos.

compiler/notes/allocation.html:
	Update the documentation of store maps to reflect their movement
	into a subfield of goal_infos.

compiler/*.m:
	Minor changes to accomodate the placement of all back end specific
	information about goals from goal_exprs and individual fields of
	goal_infos into a new field in goal_infos that gathers together
	all back end specific information.

compiler/use_local_vars.m:
	Look for sequences in which several instructions use a fake register
	or stack slot as a base register pointing to a cell, and make those
	instructions use a local variable instead.

	Without this, a key assumption of the stack slot optimization,
	that accessing a field in a cell costs only one load or store
	instruction, would be much less likely to be true. (With this
	optimization, the assumption will be false only if the C compiler's
	code generator runs out of registers in a basic block, which for
	the code we generate should be unlikely even on x86s.)

compiler/options.m:
	Make the old option --optimize-saved-vars ask for both the old stack
	slot optimization (implemented by saved_vars.m) that only eliminates
	the storing of constants in stack slots, and the new optimization.

	Add two new options --optimize-saved-vars-{const,cell} to turn on
	the two optimizations separately.

	Add a bunch of options to specify the parameters of the new
	optimizations, both in stack_opt.m and use_local_vars.m. These are
	for implementors only; they are deliberately not documented.

	Add a new option, --opt-no-return-cells, that governs whether we avoid
	saving variables on the stack at calls that cannot return, either by
	succeeding or by failing. This is for implementors only, and thus
	deliberately documented only in comments. It is enabled by default.

compiler/optimize.m:
	Transmit the value of a new option to use_local_vars.m.

doc/user_guide.texi:
	Update the documentation of --optimize-saved-vars.

library/tree234.m:
	Undo a previous change of mine that effectively applied this
	optimization by hand. That change complicated the code, and now
	the compiler can do the optimization automatically.

tools/extract_incr_sp:
	A new script for extracting stack frame sizes and messages from
	stack increment operations in the C code for LLDS grades.

tools/frame_sizes:
	A new script that uses extract_incr_sp to extract information about
	stack frame sizes from the C files saved from a stage 2 directory
	by makebatch and summarizes the resulting information.

tools/avg_frame_size:
	A new script that computes average stack frame sizes from the files
	created by frame_sizes.

tools/compare_frame_sizes:
	A new script that compares the stack frame size information
	extracted from two different stage 2 directories by frame_sizes,
	reporting on both average stack frame sizes and on specific procedures
	that have different stack frame sizes in the two versions.

        functor `shorthand'. Define K_shorthand to switch on
        shorthand_goal_expr, where the code for the `bi_implication' case
        formerly contained in K is now contained in K_shorthand.

711da78188 Rename foreign_code as foreign_proc where appropriate in the compiler.
Estimated hours taken: 4.0
Branches: main

Rename foreign_code as foreign_proc where appropriate in the compiler.
The rationale for this change is that it makes maintaining the code much
simpler because it is clear whether `foreign' refers to a slab of code
(foreign_code) or a procedure (foreign_proc).

:- type pragma_foreign_code_attributes
:- type pragma_foreign_proc_attributes

The functors for pragma_type
	foreign(Lang, BodyCode)
	foreign(Attributes, Name, PredOrFunc, Vars, Varset, Impl)
become
	foreign_code(Lang, BodyCode)
	foreign_proc(Attributes, Name, PredOrFunc, Vars, Varset, Impl)

And the HLDS goal `pragma_foreign_code' becomes `foreign_proc'.

compiler/*.m:
	Update the compiler to use the new names.

477ecb18f6 Implement pragma foreign_code for Managed C++.
Estimated hours taken: 60

Implement pragma foreign_code for Managed C++.

Currently you can only write MC++ code if your backend is capable of
generating use MC++ as its "native" foreign language.  The IL backend is
the only backend that does this at the moment (the other backends have C
as their "native" foreign language).

Most of the machinery is in place to call from C to (normal) C++
but there is little work done on actually spitting out the C++ code into
a separate file.  The IL backend does this step already with managed C++.
The intention is to turn foreign_code for C++ into a pragma import
(which imports the C++ function from a separate file) and
foreign_code for C (which calls the imported function).  The C++ code
will be inserted into a separate file that is compiled using C linkage.

The important improvement this change gives is that you can write a
module with a C and a MC++ implementations side-by-side.  The target
backend will select the most appropriate foreign language to use.
You can override its choice using --use-foreign-language.  Later on
we will probably want more flexibility than just a single language
selection option).

This change also implements :- pragma foreign_decl, which allows header
file style declarations to be written in languages other than C.

compiler/code_gen.m:
	Reject code that is not C when generating LLDS.

compiler/export.m:
	Start renaming C as foreign.
	Reject code that is not C when generating exports.

82378c381b Allow polymorphic ground insts. This change assumes that all inst
Estimated hours taken: 80

Allow polymorphic ground insts.  This change assumes that all inst
parameters in the mode declaration for a predicate or function are
constrained to be ground-shared.  This is a temporary measure until we
work out a nice syntax to allow the programmer to tell the compiler that
certain inst parameters may be treated as ground insts.  Since we don't
currently support unconstrained inst parameters anyway, this shouldn't
cause a problem.

	TODO:
		- Add syntax, something like `:- mode p(in(I)) <= ground(I).',
		  to specify that an inst parameter represents a ground inst.
		- Allow abstract ground insts that are treated in a similar
		  way to what we've done here with ground inst parameters.
		- Make mode checking more efficient (i.e. rewrite the mode
		  system).

compiler/inst.m:
	Add a new alternative for ground insts:
		`constrained_inst_var(inst_var)'.
	Define the type `inst_var_sub'.

compiler/inst_match.m:
	Change inst_matches_initial so that it:
		- handles constrained_inst_vars correctly;
		- returns the inst_var substitutions necessary for the call;
		- handles inst_matches_initial(ground(...), bound(...), ...)
		  properly (this requires knowing the type of the variable).

	  The last change has also been made for inst_matches_final
	  and inst_matches_binding.  However, the check is disabled for
	  now because, without alias tracking, the mode checker
	  becomes too conservative.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:

compiler/simplify.m:

	now in the det_info.
	Use record syntax for these data structures and their access predicates
	to make future changes easier.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Make sure that recompute_instmap_delta recomputes the
	instmap_deltas for lambda_goals even when RecomputeAtomic = no.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Add a new predicate, type_util__cons_id_arg_types which
	nondeterministically returns the cons_ids and argument types for a
	given type.
	Add a new predicate type_util__get_consid_non_existential_arg_types

c192d50143 Add preliminary support for a new pragma:
Estimated hours taken: 15

Add preliminary support for a new pragma:

:- pragma foreign_code(LanguageString, .... <same args as c_code>).

This is intended to be the eventual replacement of pragma c_code.
Presently the only valid language is "C".
The existing pragma c_code is simply turned into pragma foreign_code.

pragma foreign_code is not a supported pragma at the moment.  There are
several other changes that are intended (for example, foreign_code will
be impure by default).

This change also changes the HLDS goal pragma_c_code/7 to
pragma_foreign_code/8 where the extra argument is the foreign language.

Any code currently generating output for pragma C code simply checks
that the foreign language is set to "c".  Since this is the only
alternative of the type foreign_language, it will always succeed.
However when new alternatives are added it should be fairly easy to find
where the changes need to be made.

Some type names and predicate names have also been updated, however
there are many more that haven't yet been touched.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Accept the new syntax.	Turn the old syntax into the new item.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Change pragma_c_code/7 to pragma_foreign_code/8.
	Define the foreign_language type.

compiler/llds.m:
	Change user_c_code/2 to user_foreign_code/3.

compiler/*.m:
	Update the rest of the compiler to handle these types.
	Make a few small changes to update variable names, predicate
	names and type names.

d551dd1dc9 Handle quantification analysis of bi-implication (`<=>') goals correctly.
Estimated hours taken: 10

Handle quantification analysis of bi-implication (`<=>') goals correctly.
Previously we used to expand bi-implications before doing quantification
analysis, which stuffed up the results of quantification analysis for
those goals.  We need to do quantification analysis first, and only
then can we expand bi-implications.  In addition, elimination of double
negation needs to come after expansion of bi-implication, so I moved
that from make_hlds.m to purity.m.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add a new alternative to the HLDS goal type for bi-implications.
        Also add a new predicate negate_goal, for use by purity.m.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Don't expand bi-implication here, instead just use the new
	bi_implication/2 HLDS goal type.
	Don't eliminated double negation here.

compiler/quantification.m:
	Handle quantification for bi-implications.
	Expand bi-implications.

compiler/purity.m:
	Eliminate double negation.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Add code to print out bi-implication goals.

Estimated hours taken: 50

Remove the limitation of user-guided type specialization that
the replacement types must be ground.

compiler/higher_order.m:
	Only add extra type-infos, not typeclass-infos when
	--typeinfo-liveness is set, extracting type-infos from
	typeclass-infos where necessary. The arguments of the
	specialized version are now independent of the class context
	of the requesting procedure, which maximises the chance of multiple
	specialized calls to the same procedure being able to use the
	same code. The code to specialize calls is now slightly simpler
	because it does not have to work out how to order extra
	typeclass-info arguments.

	Specialize special preds for no-tag types where the
	wrapped type is an atomic type and the no-tag type does not
	have a user-defined equality pred. This will be useful
	for specializations involving type `term__var/1'.

	Make sure the proc_infos for specialized procedures are
	valid before reanalyzing the goals requesting the
	specializations.

	Rework the handling of branched goals to ensure that pred_infos
	and proc_infos are single threaded through branched goals - when
	higher_order.m was first written they were constant.

	Always go over all procedures for every predicate to make
	sure unifications are specialized in all procedures.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Check for type variables substituted multiple times
	or occurring on both sides of the substitution.

	Adjust the arity for specializations of functions.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Make sure the vartypes field for imported procedures is valid
	by copying it from the clauses_info to the proc_info.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
compiler/simplify.m:
compiler/table_gen.m:
compiler/magic.m:
	Remove an unused argument from polymorphism__make_type_info_vars.

compiler/type_util.m:
compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Add a predicate `type_util__type_has_user_defined_equality_pred'
	replacing similar code in det_analysis.m.

compiler/post_typecheck:
	Don't overwrite the vartypes field in the pred_info for
	automatically generated unification procedures for imported types.

library/varset.m:
	Add predicates `varset__merge_without_names' and
	`varset__merge_subst_without_names'.

compiler/equiv_type.m:
	Use the new predicates in varset.m to avoid adding the variable
	names from the declarations of equivalence types into the tvarsets
	of declarations which use those types. This is needed so that
	`varset__create_name_var_map' (used by make_hlds.m for
	`:- pragma type_spec' declarations and explicit type qualifications)
	is not confused by multiple occurrences of a variable name.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
	Remove documentation of the limitation that the substituted types
	must be ground.

tests/hard_coded/type_spec.m:
tests/hard_coded/type_spec.err_exp:
	Tests for non-ground substitutions and specialization of

Estimated hours taken: 220

Aditi update syntax, type and mode checking.

Change the hlds_goal for constructions in preparation for
structure reuse to avoid making multiple conflicting changes.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Merge `higher_order_call' and `class_method_call' into a single
	`generic_call' goal type. This also has alternatives for the
	various Aditi builtins for which type declarations can't
	be written.

	Remove the argument types field from higher-order/class method calls.
	It wasn't used often, and wasn't updated by optimizations
	such as inlining. The types can be obtained from the vartypes
	field of the proc_info.

	Add a `lambda_eval_method' field to lambda_goals.

	Add a field to constructions to identify which RL code fragment should
	be used for an top-down Aditi closure.

	Add fields to constructions to hold structure reuse information.
	This is currently ignored -- the changes to implement structure
	reuse will be committed to the alias branch.
	This is included here to avoid lots of CVS conflicts caused by
	changing the definition of `hlds_goal' twice.

	Add a field to `some' goals to specify whether the quantification
	can be removed. This is used to make it easier to ensure that
	indexes are used for updates.

	Add a field to lambda_goals to describe whether the modes were
	guessed by the compiler and may need fixing up after typechecking
	works out the argument types.

	Add predicate `hlds_goal__generic_call_id' to work out a call_id
	for a generic call for use in error messages.

compiler/purity.m:
compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	Fill in the modes of Aditi builtin calls and closure constructions.
	This needs to know which are the `aditi__state' arguments, so
	it must be done after typechecking.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Added `:- type sym_name_and_arity ---> sym_name/arity'.

	Add a type `lambda_eval_method', which describes how a closure
	is to be executed. The alternatives are normal Mercury execution,
	bottom-up execution by Aditi and top-down execution by Aditi.

compiler/prog_out.m:
	Add predicate `prog_out__write_sym_name_and_arity', which
	replaces duplicated inline code in a few places.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add a `lambda_eval_method' field to `pred_const' cons_ids and
	`pred_closure_tag' cons_tags.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Remove type `pred_call_id', replace it with type `simple_call_id',
	which combines a `pred_or_func' and a `sym_name_and_arity'.

	Add a type `call_id' which describes all the different types of call,
	including normal calls, higher-order and class-method calls
	and Aditi builtins.

	Add `aditi_top_down' to the type `marker'.

	Remove `aditi_interface' from type `marker'. Interfacing to
	Aditi predicates is now handled by `generic_call' hlds_goals.

	Add a type `rl_exprn_id' which identifies a predicate to
	be executed top-down by Aditi.
	Add a `maybe(rl_exprn_id)'  field to type `proc_info'.

	Add predicate `adjust_func_arity' to convert between the arity
	of a function to its arity as a predicate.

	Add predicates `get_state_args' and `get_state_args_det' to
	extract the DCG state arguments from an argument list.

	Add predicate `pred_info_get_call_id' to get a `simple_call_id'
	for a predicate for use in error messages.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Write the new representation for call_ids.

	Add a predicate `hlds_out__write_call_arg_id' which
	replaces similar code in mode_errors.m and typecheck.m.

compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
	Add support for `aditi_bottom_up' and `aditi_top_down' annotations
	on pred expressions.

compiler/prog_io_util.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Add predicates
	- `prog_io_util:parse_name_and_arity' to parse `SymName/Arity'
		(moved from prog_io_pragma.m).
	- `prog_io_util:parse_pred_or_func_name_and_arity to parse
		`pred SymName/Arity' or `func SymName/Arity'.
	- `prog_io_util:parse_pred_or_func_and_args' to parse terms resembling
		a clause head (moved from prog_io_pragma.m).

compiler/type_util.m:
	Add support for `aditi_bottom_up' and `aditi_top_down' annotations
	on higher-order types.

	Add predicates `construct_higher_order_type',
	`construct_higher_order_pred_type' and
	`construct_higher_order_func_type' to avoid some code duplication.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Add predicate `unused_mode/1', which returns `builtin:unused'.
	Add functions `aditi_di_mode/0', `aditi_ui_mode/0' and
	`aditi_uo_mode/0' which return `in', `in', and `out', but will
	be changed to return `di', `ui' and `uo' when alias tracking
	is implemented.

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Add predicate `goal_util__generic_call_vars' which returns
	any arguments to a generic_call which are not in the argument list,
	for example the closure passed to a higher-order call or
	the typeclass_info for a class method call.

compiler/llds.m:
compiler/exprn_aux.m:
compiler/dupelim.m:
compiler/llds_out.m:
compiler/opt_debug.m:

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Add predicate predicate_table_search_pf_sym, used for finding
	possible matches for a call with the wrong number of arguments.

compiler/intermod.m:
	Don't write predicates which build `aditi_top_down' goals,
	because there is currently no way to tell importing modules
	which RL code fragment to use.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Obey the `cannot_remove' field of explicit quantification goals.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Parse Aditi updates.

	Don't typecheck clauses for which syntax errors in Aditi updates
	are found - this avoids spurious "undefined predicate `aditi_insert/3'"
	errors.

	Factor out some common code to handle terms of the form `Head :- Body'.
	Factor out common code in the handling of pred and func expressions.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Typecheck Aditi builtins.

	Allow the argument types of matching predicates to be adjusted
	when typechecking the higher-order arguments of Aditi builtins.

	Change `typecheck__resolve_pred_overloading' to take a list of
	argument types rather than a `map(var, type)' and a list of
	arguments to allow a transformation to be performed on the
	argument types before passing them.

compiler/error_util.m:
	Move the part of `report_error_num_args' which writes
	"wrong number of arguments (<x>; expected <y>)" from
	typecheck.m for use by make_hlds.m when reporting errors
	for Aditi builtins.

compiler/modes.m:
compiler/unique_modes.m:
compiler/modecheck_call.m:
	Modecheck Aditi builtins.

ec86c88404 Merge in the changes from the existential_types_2 branch.
Estimated hours taken: 4

Merge in the changes from the existential_types_2 branch.

This change adds support for mode re-ordering of code involving
existential types.  The change required modifying the order of the
compiler passes so that polymorphism comes before mode analysis,
so that mode analysis can check the modes of the `type_info' or
`typeclass_info' variables that polymorphism introduces, so that
it can thus re-order the code accordingly.

This change also includes some more steps towards making existential data
types work.  In particular, you should be able to declare existentially
typed data types, the compiler will generate appropriate unification
and compare/3 routines for them, and deconstruction unifications for them
should work OK.  However, currently there's no way to construct them
except via `pragam c_code', and we don't generate correct RTTI for them,
so you can't use `io__write' etc. on them.

5c955626f2 These changes make var' and term' polymorphic.
Estimated hours taken: 20

These changes make `var' and `term' polymorphic. This allows us to make
variables and terms representing types of a different type to those
representing program terms and those representing insts.

These changes do not *fix* any existing problems (for instance
there was a messy conflation of program variables and inst variables,
and where necessary I've just called varset__init(InstVarSet) with
an XXX comment).

NEWS:
	Mention the changes to the standard library.

library/term.m:
	Make term, var and var_supply polymorphic.
	Add new predicates:
		term__generic_term/1
		term__coerce/2
		term__coerce_var/2
		term__coerce_var_supply/2

library/varset.m:
	Make varset polymorphic.
	Add the new predicate:
		varset__coerce/2

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Introduce type equivalences for the different kinds of
	vars, terms, and varsets that we use (tvar and tvarset
	were already there but have been changed to use the
	polymorphic var and term).

	Also change the various kinds of items to use the appropriate
	kinds of var/varset.

compiler/*.m:
	Thousands of boring changes to make the compiler type correct
	with the different types for type, program and inst vars and
	varsets.

Fix a couple of bugs related to pruning of impure goals with no output
variables.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Fix a bug: the compiler was automatically inserting pruning
	across impure goals with no output variables.  That should
	happen only for pure or semipure goals.  To prevent pruning
	in those cases, I changed it so that impure goals with no
	output variables are not considered single-solution contexts.

	Document the above-mentioned change.

compiler/clause_to_proc.m:

Estimated hours taken: 10

Clean up the handling of commits and goals which cannot succeed.
This fixes problems with tests/hard_coded/cut_test.m.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Be more careful about using `true_goal/1' and `fail_goal/1' instead
	of `conj([])' and `disj([], _)'.
	When removing unnecessary disjunctions or if-then-elses around goals
	be sure to wrap the goal if the inner and outer determinisms are not
	equal.
	Rerun determinism analysis where required.
	Remove `some's where the inner and outer determinisms are the same.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Enforce the invariant that if the initial instmap is unreachable,
	the instmap_delta is unreachable.

compiler/ite_gen.m:
	Don't barf if the `then' part of an if-then-else is unreachable.

compiler/common.m:
	Check for constructions where the assigned variable is not output.

compiler/deforest.m:
	Requantify before rerunning mode analysis when inlining.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Export predicates to run determinism analysis on a goal, not an
	entire procedure.

	contexts: it was incorrectly giving such calls determinism
	`cc_multi' instead of `multi'.
	This bug caused the compiler to generate incorrect code for
	the test case tests/hard_coded/cc_and_non_cc_test.m when
	using optimization levels -O1 or lower.  (At higher optimization
	levels, the calls got inlined, masking the bug.)

compiler/base_type_layout.m:
	Update comments to reflect new runtime naming standard.

11d8161692 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

	Change most of the hard-coded occurrences of "mercury_builtin"
	to call mercury_private_builtin_module/1 or

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Ensure that the type names `type_info' and `typeclass_info' are

d0085d8119 Assorted changes to make the HLDS type and mode correct
Estimated hours taken: 45

Assorted changes to make the HLDS type and mode correct
after lambda expansion. The HLDS is still not unique mode
correct after common structure elimination.

compiler/det_analysis.m
	Make sure the inferred_determinism field of the proc_info is filled
	in correctly for imported procedures and class methods.

compiler/mode_util.m
	Fix a bug in recompute_instmap_delta_call to do with unreachable
	instmaps. This caused an abort a couple of months ago when
	compiling with --deforestation (not yet committed), but
	can't currently be reproduced.

compiler/hlds_pred.m
compiler/lambda.m
	Add a field to the proc_info to record which args_method
	should be used for this procedure. Procedures directly
	called by do_call_*_closure must be compiled with
	the `compact' argument convention to avoid the need to permute
	the arguments so inputs come before outputs.

compiler/lambda.m
compiler/higher_order.m
	Remove permutation of argument variables of lambda expressions
	so the HLDS is type and mode correct and mode analysis can
	be rerun. Otherwise, rerunning mode analysis will fail on
	tests/hard_coded/ho_order.m.

compiler/arg_info.m
	Added arg_info__ho_call_args_method which returns
	an args_method which can always be directly called by
	do_call_*_closure (`compact').
	Added arg_info__args_method_is_ho_callable to check that
	a given args_method can be directly called.

compiler/unify_gen.m
	Abort if a closure is created for a procedure compiled
	with the simple argument convention.

compiler/hlds_goal.m
compiler/lambda.m
	Mode analysis was not storing the non-locals list on which the
	uni_modes field of the construction of a lambda goal was computed.
	If the nonlocals were renamed, the sort order could change, and
	the non-locals could be incorrectly matched with the arguments
	of the introduced lambda expression, causing a mode error. The
	argument list is now stored.
	This caused rerunning mode-checking on tests/valid/lazy_list.m
	after polymorphism to fail.

compiler/*.m
	Fill in the args_method field of proc_infos with the value
	from the globals.
	Handle the extra argument to the lambda_goal unify_rhs.

compiler/follow_vars.m
	Remove code to handle complicated unifications, since
	they should be removed by polymorphism.m.

compiler/special_pred.m
library/mercury_builtin.m
	Make the uniqueness of the comparison_result argument
	of builtin_compare_* and the automatically generated
	comparison procedures match that of compare/3. Unique mode
	errors will still be introduced if polymorphism.m specializes
	calls to any of the unique modes of compare/3 and then mode analysis
	is rerun, since the compiler-generated comparison procedures
	only implement the (uo, in, in) mode. (This is not yet a problem
	because currently we don't rerun mode analysis.)

runtime/mercury_ho_call.c
	Remove code in do_call_*_closure to deal with the
	`simple' args_method. Since the output arguments no longer
	need to be moved, the closure call is now a tailcall.
	Remove some magic numbers.

compiler/modecheck_unify.m
	Avoid some aborts and mode errors when rerunning mode analysis,
	especially those resulting from not_reached insts being treated
	as bound.
	Avoid aborting on higher-order predicate constants with multiple
	modes if lambda expansion has already been run.

tests/valid/higher_order.m
        Add a test case for an abort in mode analysis when
	compiling with --deforestation (not yet committed),
	due to a predicate constant for a procedure with multiple
	modes.

tests/valid/unreachable_code.m
	Add a test case for bogus higher-order unification
	mode errors in unreachable code.

5013dd9c76 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.

b4813457c9 A rewrite of termination analysis to make it significantly easier to modify,
Estimated hours taken: 60

A rewrite of termination analysis to make it significantly easier to modify,
and to extend its capabilities.

compiler/error_util.m:
	A new file containing code that makes it easier to generate
	nicely formatted error messages.

compiler/termination.m:
	Updates to reflect the changes to the representation of termination
	information.

	Instead of doing pass 1 on all SCCs and then pass 2 on all SCCs,
	we now do both pass 1 and 2 on an SCC before moving on to the next.

	Do not insist that either all procedures in an SCC are
	compiler-generated or all are user-written, since this need not be
	true in the presence of user-defined equality predicates.

	Clarify the structure of the code that handles builtins and compiler
	generated predicates.

	Concentrate all the code for updating module_infos in this module.
	Previously it was scattered in several places in several files.

	Put all the code for writing out termination information at the
	end of the module in a logical order.

compiler/term_traversal.m:
	A new file containing code used by both pass 1 and pass 2 to
	traverse procedure bodies.

compiler/term_pass1.m:
	Use the new traversal module.

	Clarify the fixpoint computation on the set of output supplier
	arguments.

	Remove duplicates from the list of equations given to the solver.
	This avoids a det stack overflow in lp.m when doing termination
	analysis on options.m.

	If an output argument of a predicate makes sense only in the absence
	of errors, then return it only in the absence of errors.

compiler/term_pass2.m:
	Use the new traversal module. Unlike the previous code, this allows us
	to ignore recursive calls with input arguments bigger than the head
	if those calls occur after goals that cannot succeed (since those
	calls will never be reached).

	Implement a better way of doing single argument analysis, which
	(unlike the previous version) works in the presence of mutual recursion
	and other calls between the recursive call and the start of the clause.

	Implement a more precise way of checking for recursions that don't
	cause termination problems. We now allow calls from p to q in which
	the recursive input supplier arguments can grow, provided that on
	any path on which q can call p, directly or indirectly, the recursive
	input supplier arguments shrink by a greater amount.

	If an output argument of a predicate makes sense only in the absence
	of errors, then return it only in the absence of errors.

compiler/term_util.m:
	Updates to reflect the changes to the representation of termination
	information.

	Reorder to put related code together.

	Change the interface of several predicates to better reflect the
	way they are used.

	Add some more utility predicates.

compiler/term_errors.m:
	Small changes to the set of possible errors, and major changes in
	the way the messages are printed out (we now use error_util).

compiler/options.m:
	Change --term-single-arg from being a bool to an int option,
	whose value indicates the maximum size of an SCC in which we try
	single argument analysis. (Large SCCs can cause single-arg analysis
	to require a lot of iterations.)

	Add an (int) option that controls the max number of paths
	that we are willing to analyze (analyzing too many paths can cause
	det stack overflow).

	Add an (int) option that controls the max number of causes of
	nontermination that we print out.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Use two separate slots in the proc_info to hold argument size data
	and termination info, instead of the single slot used until now.
	The two kinds of information are produced and used separately.

	Make the layout of the get and set procedures for proc_infos more
	regular, to facilitate later updates.

	The procedures proc_info_{,set_}variables did the same work as
	proc_info_{,set_}varset. To eliminate potential confusion, I
	removed the first set.

compiler/*.m:
	Change proc_info_{,set_}variables to proc_info_{,set_}varset.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Change the code to handle the arg size data and the termination
	info separately.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Change the internal representation of termination_info pragmas to
	hold the arg size data and the termination info separately.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Change the external representation of termination_info pragmas to
	group the arg size data together with the output supplier data,
	to which it is logically connected.

compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/modules.m:
	Change the code to accommodate the change to the internal
	representation of termination_info pragmas.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Fix some documentation rot, and clarify some points.

	Document termination analysis.

doc/user_guide.texi:
	Document --term-single-arg and the new options.

	Remove spaces from the ends of lines.

library/bag.m:
	Add a new predicate, bag__least_upper_bound.

	Fix code that would do the wrong thing if executed by Prolog.

	Remove spaces from the ends of lines.

library/list.m:
	Add a new predicate, list__take_upto.

library/set{,_ordlist}.m:
	Add a new predicate, set{,_ordlist}__count.

tests/term/*:
	A bunch of new test cases to test the behaviour of termination
	analysis. They are the small benchmark suite from our paper.

	Enable the new test case directory.

7406335105 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.

99184d3578 Implement support for types with user-defined equality predicates.
Estimated hours taken: 30

Implement support for types with user-defined equality predicates.

Types with user-defined equality predicates are called "non-canonical types";
they may have more than one representation for the same abstract value.
That means that any attempt to deconstruct a value of a non-canonical
type, i.e. any attempt to peek at the representation, must be cc_multi.

This also implies that conceptually speaking, non-canonical types are not
members of the type classes `comparable' (compare/3) or `deconstructible'
(index/2, argument/3, functor/3, deconstruct/5).  Since we don't support
type classes yet, that just means that the type-class checking is done
at runtime, i.e. any call to one of those functions for a non-canonical
type will call error/1 or fatal_error().

To make non-canonical types useful, we really need type classes,
so that the user can provide instance definitions for `comparable'
and `deconstructible' for such types.  It might also be a good idea
to have a type-class `canonicalizable' which provides a function
to convert its argument to some canonical type (that would
require existential types to do nicely, but alternatively we could
just use `univ').

Note that currently the only mechanism for promising that things are
unique is via the C interface.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Add code to check unifications that examine the
	representation of a type with a user-defined equality predicate.
	Any such unification must occur in a single-solution context and
	must not be able to fail.  Such unifications determinism have
	determinism cc_multi.

compiler/det_report.m:
	Add code to report errors for misuse of types with user-defined
	equality predicates.  (Also some other stylistic improvements:
	split up a complicated predicate into subroutines, and
	avoid some unnecessary code duplication.)

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add a new `maybe(sym_name)' field to the du_type/3 constructor
	to hold the name of the user-defined equality pred for the
	type, if any.

compiler/prog_io.m:
	Add code to parse the new `... where equality is <name>.' syntax.
	Delete the old support for `... where <condition>'.

b539cb29f7 Better handling of abstract unification of insts which always fail.
Estimated hours taken: 8

Better handling of abstract unification of insts which always fail.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	New predicate det_par_conjunction_detism/3 to compute the
	determinism of parallel conjunctions (or virtual parallel
	conjunctions).

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Make the ground_inst_table store the determinism of the
	grounding operation.  The reason for this is that
	make_ground_inst* now returns the determinism of the
	grounding operation, and so it makes sense to store the
	determinisms along with cached groundings to avoid
	recomputing them.

compiler/inst_util.m:
	Add a new argument to return the determinism of the
	unification/grounding to the following predicates:

		abstractly_unify_inst_functor
		abstractly_unify_bound_inst_list
		abstractly_unify_bound_inst_list_lives
		abstractly_unify_inst_list_lives
		make_ground_inst_list_lives
		make_ground_inst_list
		make_ground_inst
		make_ground_bound_inst_list

	This is to make it easier to locate unifications which
	cannot succeed.

compiler/instmap.m:
	If you attempt to insert a not_reached into an instmap, the
	entire instmap becomes unreachable.

compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
	Slight reorganisation of code dealing with var-functor
	unifications.  Simple optimisations have been moved to
	modecheck_unify_functor.

	All unifications which definitely fail are now optimised
	to `fail'.

	above.

Estimated hours taken: 4

Fix a bug.  For the example code in the bug report, simplify.m simplified
the code by merging two switches, which happened to lead to one branch
containing `error(...), fail'.  The problem was that determinism
analysis inferred a determinism of `failure' for that branch, rather
than `erroneous'.  This caused the code generator to abort, because
the switch was `det' (= model_det) but the case was `failure' (= model_semi).
The basic problem is that simplify.m assumed that simplifying goals
in this way should never make their determinism worse (less precise),
though it might make it better.  But due to the imprecision of determinism
analysis, this assumption was not correct.  The fix is to change determinism
analysis so that the assumption is correct.

compiler/det_analysis.m:
	Add a new predicate exported predicate det_conjunction_detism/3.
	This is similar to calling det_conjunction_canfail/3
	and det_conjunction_maxsoln/3 and combining the results,
	except that if the first goal cannot ever succeed, the determinism
	of the second goal is ignored.  Also, make det_conjunction_canfail/3
	and det_conjunction_maxsoln/3 local rather than exported, to ensure
	that callers from other modules use the new predicate.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Delete conjuncts which are known to be unreachable based on the
	determinism information, as well as based on mode information.
	(The previous code already deleted conjuncts which were
	unreachable due to mode information, but the determinism
	information may be more precise than the mode information.)

compiler/simplify.m:
compiler/follow_code.m:
	Use det_conjunction_detism/3 rather than det_conjunction_canfail/3
	and det_conjunction_maxsoln/3.

Estimated hours taken: 14

Implemented a :- use_module directive. This is the same as
:- import_module, except all uses of the imported items
must be explicitly module qualified.

:- use_module is implemented by ensuring that unqualified versions
of items only get added to the HLDS symbol tables if they were imported
using import_module.

Indirectly imported items (from `.int2' files) and items declared in `.opt'
files are treated as if they were imported with use_module, since all uses
of them should be module qualified.

compiler/module_qual.m
	Keep two sets of type, mode and inst ids, those which can
	be used without qualifiers and those which can't.

	Renamed some predicates which no longer have unique names since
	'__' became a synonym for ':'.

	Made mq_info_set_module_used check whether the current item is in
	the interface, rather than relying on its caller to do the check.

	Removed init_mq_info_module, since make_hlds.m now uses the
	mq_info built during the module qualification pass.

compiler/prog_data.m
	Added a pseudo-declaration `used', same as `imported' except uses of
	the following items must be module qualified.

	Added a type need_qualifier to describe whether uses of an item
	need to be module qualified.

compiler/make_hlds.m
	Keep with the import_status whether current item was imported
	using a :- use_module directive.

	Use the mq_info structure passed in instead of building a new one.

	Ensure unqualified versions of constructors only get added to the
	cons_table if they can be used without qualification.

compiler/hlds_module.m
	Added an extra argument to predicate_table_insert of type
	need_qualifier.

	Only add predicates to the name and name-arity indices if they
	can be used without qualifiers.

	Changed the structure of the module-name-arity index, so that
	lookups can be made without an arity, such as when type-checking
	module qualified higher-order predicate constants. This does not
	change the interface to the module_name_arity index.

	Factored out some common code in predicate_table_insert which
	applies to both predicates and functions.

compiler/hlds_pred.m
	Removed the opt_decl import_status. It isn't needed any more
	since all uses of items declared in .opt files must now be
	module qualified.

	Added some documentation about when the clauses_info is valid.

compiler/intermod.m
	Ensure that predicate and function calls in the `.opt' file are
	module qualified. Use use_module instead of import_module in
	`.opt' files.

compiler/modules.m
	Handle use_module directives.

	Report a warning if both use_module and import_module declarations
	exist for the same module.

compiler/mercury_compile.m
	Collect inter-module optimization information before module
	qualification, since it can't cause conflicts any more. This means
	that the mq_info structure built in module_qual.m can be reused in
	make_hlds.m, instead of building a new one.

compiler/prog_out.m
	Add a predicate prog_out__write_module_list, which was moved
	here from module_qual.m.

compiler/typecheck.m
	Removed code to check that predicates declared in `.opt' files
	were being used appropriately, since this is now handled by
	use_module.

compiler/*.m
	Added missing imports, mostly for prog_data and term.

e3471f333f Fix a bug in inlining of polymorphic pragma c_code procedures.
Estimated hours taken: 3

Fix a bug in inlining of polymorphic pragma c_code procedures.

The bug was that if the actual argument type has a specific type
of say `float', then the C variable for the corresponding formal
parameter will be declared to have type `Float', whereas without
inlining the argument type would have been polymorphic and so
the C variable would have been declared to have type `Word'.
Hence we need to keep track of the original argument types,
before any inlining or specialization has occurred, and use
these original argument types to determine how to declare
the C variables, rather than using the actual argument types
for this particular specialization.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add a new field to pragma_c_code goals, holding the
	original argument types (before any inlining or specialization)
	of the pragma_c_code procedure.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Initialize this field with the declared argument types for
	the pragma c_code procedure.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Update this field to account for the inserted type_info variables.

compiler/code_gen.m:
	Pass this field to pragma_c_gen.m.

compiler/pragma_c_gen.m:
	Use the original argument types field for the pragma variable
	declarations, rather than looking up the actual types of the
	arguments.

compiler/*.m:
	Trivial changes to handle new field.

compiler/live_vars.m:
	Comment out some code to avoid a warning about `fail'
	in the condition of an if-then-else.

The first half of a change to introduce nondet pragma C goals.
This half makes the necessary modifications to the HLDS; the next
half will modify the LLDS and emit it.

prog_data:
	Add a new pragma type for nondet pragma c_codes; these specify
	the names of a a bunch of variables to save across backtracking,
	and a list of label names to which backtracking may take place.

	Rename is_recursive to may_call_mercury, since this is a more
	direct expression of the meaning.

prog_io:
	Move much of the functionality to new files.

prog_io_dcg, prog_io_goal, prog_io_pragma, prog_io_util:
	New files, made up of pieces of prog_io.

hlds_goal:
	Add an extra argument to the pragma_c_goals to store the extra
	information present in the new type of pragma c_codes.

det_analysis:
	Take into account that the new type of pragma_c goal may have
	more than one solution.

goal_util:
	Rename variables in the new field of pragma_cs.

live_vars:
	Allocate stack slots to the saved variables in the new type of pragma_c
	goals.

make_hlds:
	Handle the new type of pragma_c goals.

mercury_output, hlds_out:
	Output the new type of pragma_c goals.

garbage_out:
	Rename type "det" to "frame_type".

others:
	Ignore one more arg of pragma_c goals or import prog_io_util.
