... instead of building a bunch of .c files.
Our tradition of adding an "s" at the end of a suffix to mean "all of the
files with the original suffix" had a problem when we added C# as a target
language. Until then, just as "os" stood for ".o files" when it occurred
as either a mmake target, mmc --make target, or mmake variable name component.
"cs" likewise stood for ".c files", but was now also needed to mean ".cs file".
We coped by keeping "cs" meaning ".c files", and adding "csharp" as a target
name synonym to mean ".cs file".
This diff keeps that synonym, but it changes
- the name needed to refer to ".c files" from "cs" to "all_cs"
- the name needed to refer to ".o files" from "os" to "all_os"
- the name needed to refer to ".pic_o files" from "pic_os" to "all_pic_os"
- the name needed to refer to ".cs files" from "css" to "all_css"
- the name needed to refer to ".java files" from "javas" to "all_javas"
- the name needed to refer to ".opt files" from "opts" to "all_opts"
- the name needed to refer to ".trans_opt files"
from "trans_opts" to "all_trans_opts"
It would be nice if we could apply this same change to all other similar
target names and mmake variable name suffixes, such as "ints" and "int3s",
but some of those names are already in use to mean semantically different
things. All of the names above that used to have the form "<ext>s" and
now have the form "all_<ext>s" stood for all the files with extension
".<ext>" that are prerequisites for building a linked target, i.e.
an executable or a library. But the mmake variable name suffixes
".all_mihs", ".all_mhs" and ".all_int0s" each stand for something subtly
different: the names of files that *may or may not exist", but which,
if they do exist, should be deleted by a clean or realclean target.
To make this breaking change easier to handle by users, this diff does
not simply redefine the meaning of ".all_int0s". (It does change the meaning
of the "cs" target, but the fact this will happen at some time has been
announced ages ago.) Instead, it defines three new mmake var suffixes,
".mihs_to_clean", ".mhs_to_clean" and ".int0s_to_clean", which are
synonyms for ".all_mihs", ".all_mhs" and ".all_int0s" respectively,
and announces that ".all_mihs", ".all_mhs" and ".all_int0s" are being
deprecated, and will have the above change of semantics applied to them
in the future.
NEWS.md:
Announce the breaking change.
compiler/make.top_level.m:
Stop treating the target "cs" as meaning "build all the .c files
for this program".
The code of classify_target_2 has long been semidet, but only in a way
that was not apparent to the compiler. Change the code to allow the
compiler to see its semidet nature while keeping the algorithm the same,
except for the change in the paragraph above.
This includes keeping e.g. "ints" as meaning "build all the .int/.int2
files needed by this program".
compiler/write_deps_file.m:
Stop generating mmake variables with suffixes ".cs", ".os", ".pic_os",
".javas" and ".css". The mmake variables with suffixes ".all_cs",
".all_os", ".all_pic_os", ".all_javas" and ".all_css" already existed.
All had the same value as the mmake variable without the "all",
with one exception: ".cs". However, in this case, the old (and still
current) value of ".all_cs" is what the value of ".cs" *should* have been.

These were failing because debugger expects Windows-style paths in the
test_mdbrc file, but it was being generated with Unix-style paths. A
similar problem was recently fixed for MSVC, this change extends that
fix to also work for MSYS2/MinGW64.
configure.ac:
Define a new configuration variable, FIX_PATH_FOR_WINDOWS, that expands
to the command used to do path conversion in Unix-like environments on
Windows. (The previous fix for MSVC used FIX_PATH_FOR_CC to do this,
but the MinGW64 port of GCC does use Unix-style paths so that cannot
be used here.)

Use the recently added --trans-opt-deps-spec option to break cycles in
the trans-opt dependency graph for the standard library. This enables
more parallelism when making the .trans_opt files; it now takes about
half as long as before.
Ordering modules sensibly, so that .trans_opt files are created in a
logical order, also improves analysis results for many predicates and
functions. The only results which show a regression with this change are
for deprecated forwarding predicates/functions.
In future, we will probably be able to trim more dependencies to further
improve parallelism, without impacting analysis results.

Rename the MR_LOWLEVEL_DEBUG macro to MR_DEBUG_THE_RUNTIME.
Previously, the name of this macro wrongly implied that it had
something to do with the old .ll_debug grade component, even though
- the MR_LOWLEVEL_DEBUG macro was designed to debug LLDS grades,
since only these existed when it was created, while
- the .ll_debug grade component (now .c_debug) is useful only for
MLDS grades targeting C.
compiler/options.m:
Rename the old confusingly named low_level_debug option to c_debug_grade.
Move it to the list of grade options, and fix its documentation, which
was completely wrong:
- code in compile_target_code.m treated it as being a synonym of
the .ll_debug (now .c_debug) grade component, while
- its (commented out) documentation here in options.m said it called for
the enabling of what is now MR_DEBUG_THE_RUNTIME.
compiler/compile_target_code.m:
Conform to the rename just above.
Define MR_C_DEBUG_GRADE instead of MR_LL_DEBUG if c_debug_grade is enabled.
Pass -g to the C compiler if either c_debug_grade or target_debug
is enabled.
Add an XXX about a missing safety check for an obsolete experimental
feature.
compiler/compute_grade.m:
When given a grade with a .c_debug grade component, set only the
c_debug_grade option; don't set the target_debug option, which is NOT
a grade option. The change to compile_target_code.m above handles the
only situation in which this implication was formerly required.

Look for and process the --c-debug-grade grade-component option,

--low-level-debug.
scripts/mgnuc.in:
scripts/mgnuc_file_opts.sh-subr:
Consistently use the sh variable c_debug to record the presence of
the (non-grade) --c-debug option to mgnuc, and the sh variable
c_debug_grade to record the presence of the .c_debug grade component.
Stop looking for and handling the --low-level-debug option, which
mgnuc used to document, even though this duplicated the same documentation
in init_grade_options.sh-subr, which mgnuc includes. The difference was
that init_grade_options.sh-subr meant it to represent the old .ll_debug
MLDS grade component, while mgnuc treated it as specifying what is now
MR_DEBUG_THE_RUNTIME for LLDS grades. It didn't help that two sh variables
with quite different semantics had names that differed only in an
underscore: LLDEBUG_OPTS vs LL_DEBUG_OPTS.
scripts/Mmakefile:
Add a missing dependency to force the rebuild of mgnuc after each update

Mmake.common.in:
Don't print the actions implementing namespace cleanliness checks.
To allow the attribution of any violations of the namespace rules,
print the name of the C module before any list of detected
nonallowed symbols.
To avoid mmake printing the actions for creating the .o files
that some of the check_namespace actions later check, rename
the affected object files .pseudo_o files, so that we can specify
a rule for them that is a copy of the rule for .o files, differing
only in not printing the compilation command.
Mark the files involved in check_namespace actions as dependencies
of .SECONDARY, which means that mmake does not automatically delete them
after building them as intermediate files. The reason for this is that
there is no way to tell make to delete intermediate files *silently*,
i.e. without writing out the rm command that deletes them.
To make up for this, tools/bootcheck now cleans up each directory
immediately after "mmake check_namespace" with "mmake clean_check",
which invokes mmake rules that do not print the rm commands.
This change does have the effect that these intermediate files *will*
hang around if the check_namespace target is every invoked manually.
However,
- we just about never run check_namespace in a directory manually, and
- when we do, a simple "mmake clean_check" will do the required cleanup.

ssdb/Mmakefile:
Fix an old bug that something else in this diff tickled: make the
.depend target of each main module depend on SSDB_FLAGS, *not* just
the phony general "depend" target. This was a bug because tools/bootcheck
- copied across to stage 2 ONLY SSDB_FLAGS.in, and NOT SSDB_FLAGS,
- did NOT explicitly make SSDB_FLAGS from SSDB_FLAGS.in, even though
pretty much invocations of the Mercury compiler in this directory
have "--flags SSDB_FLAGS" as an implicit argument, and then
- built dependencies in the ssdb directory by invoking the top
Mmakefile's dep_ssdb target, which (indirectly) invokes
$(SSDB_LIB_NAME).depend.
Due to all the above, I don't actually know how tools/bootcheck
could ever build stage2/ssdb until now :-(
tools/bootcheck:
Invoke "mmake clean_check" after each "mmake check_namespace".
Change the code that explicitly builds the directory-specific
X_FLAGS file in each directory (which is invoked only when using
mmc --make) to actually build all such files, when previously
it built only a subset.

Fix an unintended consequence of replacing the .m.err rule in
scripts/Mmake.rules with %.err: %.m, which is that the %.err: %.m
rules in these mmakefiles became ineffective, because they appear
in the makefile we construct *after* the rule in scripts/Mmake.rules,
which specify a different action (the rules here return a nonzero
status in the *absence* of failure, which would be ridiculous
for the rule in scripts/Mmake.rules). Apparently, the %.err: %.m rules
overrode the rule in scripts/Mmake.rules while it had the old form,
but do not do so now it has the new form.
The fix is to make replace all the "%.err: %.m" rules in these Mmakefiles
with "$(PROGS:%=%.err): %.err: %.m" rules, which specify that they
override the generic rule for the .err files of the test cases
in each directory.
In invalid_purity/Mmakefile, fix a bug: -nodepend suffixes make sense
in only in the name of a *test*, not the name of a *program*, so
move such a suffix from a program name to a test name. Without this,
the program's .err file would be included in the list of .err files
to which the ".err: .m" rule applies under the wrong name.
In invalid_submodules/Mmakefile, fix the misleading names of some
make variables, and fix a misspelt directory name.
Standardize on "$(PROGS:%=%.err)" notation, replacing earlier instances
of "$(addsuffix .err,$(PROGS))". The reason for this is that when I tried
using "$addsuffix .int_err,$(PROGS))" in tests/invalid/invalid_make_int,
it did not work. (A google search on "gnu make addsuffix" did not yield
any clues as to why. Maybe you can only add suffixes that do not contain
underscores?)

The default optimisation level was implemented by having the
Mercury.config file add a -O<n> option to the DEFAULT_MCFLAGS variable.
This allowed the user to override the default optimisation level
by setting the MERCURY_DEFAULT_OPT_LEVEL environment variable.
Commit 181ada0dbf made it so that -O<n>
options do not reset previously set options. This had the unintended
consequence that any -O<n> options below the default optimisation level
had no effect when passed on the command line or in a Mercury.options
file, because a -O<n> option passed by the user would never undo the
options set by the default optimisation level.
compiler/options.m:
Add new option `--default-opt-level' for use by Mercury.config.
tools/make_optimization_options_end:
Add predicate to parse the value of `--default-opt-level' from the

MERCURY_DEFAULT_OPT_LEVEL environment variable will be passed as
the option value. The existence of the environment variable was
(barely) documented, but the allowable values are not.
Though the user might conceivably have set any Mercury compiler
option in that environment variable, the value was probably only
intended to be a string of the form "-O<int>", and that is all we

We used to set up *two* mdbrc files for use by test cases:
scripts/test_mdbrc, and tests/mdbrc. Tools/bootcheck said
the tests should use the former, while tests/Mmake.common
said they should use the latter. This diff deletes the latter,
and uniformly uses the former.
The setup code was also scattered, with parts being done by
the configure script, and part being done by tools/bootcheck.
Move it all to scripts/Mmakefile, since that is the natural
place to put code to build scripts/test_mdbrc.
Mmakefile:
Fix the action for cleaning up the tests directory.
This started out as the reason for this whole change.
As it happens, a *working* action for cleaning up the tests
broke things, because it deleted an autoconfigured file
(tests/mdbrc) that there was no rule for rebuilding.
This issue is what required the rest of this diff.

Pass --restricted-command-line to the bootstrap compiler. On Windows, the

On Windows the name 'mmc' is also used for the executable for Microsoft
Management Console. For the MSVC port on the Windows command line we have long
provided a batch file named 'mercury' as an alternative to `mmc' in order to
avoid this clash. (Re-arranging your PATH to avoid the clash is not always an
option.)
Provide a shell script named 'mercury' that serves the same purpose elsewhere.
Its main use is to avoid the name clash on MinGW/MSYS, Cygwin etc., but
making the name available everywhere should avoid unnecessary changes in build
scripts and alike.

Create the 'mercury' wrapper script.
scripts/Mmakefile:
Add 'mercury' to the list of scripts.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Add a paragraph describing the 'mmc' name clash on Windows and what
to do about it.
Unrelated change: ':' is no longer a module qualifier.
README.MS-Windows:
Point users to the relevant chapter of the user's guide for ways
to deal with the `mmc' name clash.
NEWS:
Announce the addition.
scripts/mgnuc.in:
Delete the unused variables AS, AS_OPTS, HLD_OPTS and ARG_OPTS.
The first two are hstorical relics, HLD_OPTS lost its raison d'etre
when we deleted the hl grades; I don't know what we used ARG_OPTS for.
Make the unused variable CFLAGS_FOR_ANSI used.
Fix a spelling inconsistency: DEBUG_OPT vs DEBUG_OPTS.
scripts/ml.in:
Delete the unused variables NONSHARED_LIB_DIR and DL_LIBRARY.
scripts/parse_grade_options.sh-subr:
Fix typos that prevented an almost-never-used option from working.
scripts/parse_ml_options.sh-subr.in:
Fix a quoting error.
tools/bootcheck:
Comment out the definition of an unused variable. (Its parallel
exists and is used in c2init.in, which is why it is not deleted.)
Fix typos in spelling SSDB_LIB_NAME.
Quote a variable value that may contain spaces.
Replace "cat file | cmd" with "cmd < file".
The main objective of this change is to get bootchecks in the csharp
and java grades to actually build the slice, profiler, deep_profiler
and mfilterjavac directories, which (due to the bug this diff fixes)
they weren't doing before.
However, since one side effect of this change is to eliminate
one source of annoying warnings from mmake about references to undefined
variables, a subsidiary objective is to eliminate other sources of such
warnings as well, which mostly come from the rules for making tags files.

When creating stage 3, the bootcheck builds, in each directory,
only the files that it wants to compare against their stage 2 versions.
This means that it wants to build all the .c, .cs or .java files,
which it does via the cs, css and javas mmake targets.
The correct definitions of the rules of these targets depends on
whether mmc --make is being used or not, so we need at least two
sets of definitions: one for mmc --make, and for no mmc --make,
and conditionally selecting the appropriate one. The latter definition
has the problem that it refers to mmake variables that are intended
to be defined in .dv files created by mmc --generate-dependencies,
but until that has been run, those mmake variables are undefined.
Until now, the only directories that had both the mmc --make
and the no mmc --make definitions were the ones needed to build
the compiler. Bootchecks in the csharp and java grades, which
always use --make make, got errors when they tried to build
the directories that bootcheck builds after the compiler:
the slice, profiler, deep_prof and mfilterjavac directories.
This diff ensures that all directories we build in bootcheck
get all both versions of the os, cs, css, and javas targets.
In fact, they get two subversions of the no mmc --make version:
one for use in the presence of .dv files, and one for use in their
absence. The latter just builds the .dv files and invokes mmake
again. This avoids one source of warnings about undefined mmake
variables.
To avoid another source, make the rules for tags files and their
proxies depends on *.m instead of mmake variables such as $(mcov.ms),
since this makes sense even before making dependencies. The only price
is that any untracked Mercury source files in the directory have to
either be given some other suffix, or moved somewhere else.
Where relevant, make the mtags invocation prefer the master versions
of files that are copied from the mdbcomp directory to other directories,
since this is the only writeable version.
Make the os and cs rules consistently NOT build the _init.[co] files.
The way we use those files in bootcheck, we never need them;
when we need them, the right target to give is the executable anyway.
In the slice directory, don't put mcov between mtc_union and mtc_diff.
Eliminate unnecessary duplication, e.g. of sources in rules.
Eliminate double negatives in conditionals.
Fix formatting.

Add "ft=make" to vim modelines. This is redundant for the files whose
names is Mmakefile, but it is needed for Mmake.common.
As we discussed, it has fallen into disuse. Its main purpose was to
pave the way for the .net backend and later for the java and csharp grades.
Now that the .net backend is ancient history and the java and csharp grades
are established, that purpose is gone, and for every other purpose,
hlc is better because it is simpler and faster.
compiler/options.m:
Delete the --high-level-data option. It is no longer needed,
bacause the data representation scheme is now a direct function
of the target language.
