425287b6e0 More work on the Java back-end. The standard library now compiles
Estimated hours taken: 6
Branches: main

More work on the Java back-end.  The standard library now compiles
in grade `java', and hello world (the version using io__write_string,
and linked against the standard library in library/*.m, not the
hand-coded one in java/library/*.java) now works!

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Ignore `pragma type_spec' declarations for the Java back-end.
	This works around a problem where javac was failing to compile
	some of our generated code due to it overflowing limits on
	file name length for the names of the .class files for some
	nested classes.

compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Add some comments.  Add myself to the "main authors" list.

library/string.m:
	Provide Java definitions of string__first_char and
	string__unsafe_index.  (These are needed for string.append,
	which is used by private_builtin.sorry.)

library/io.m:
	Provide Java definitions of io__write_{string,int,char,float}/3.

java/runtime/TypeCtorInfo_Struct.java:
	Fix a cut-and-paste error.

java/runtime/TypeInfo_Struct.java:
	Improve the implementation of the TypeInfo_Struct(Object)
	constructor so that it doesn't throw exceptions during
	the initialization of the standard library.

java/runtime/FA_TypeInfo_Struct1.java:
	Make this type inherit from TypeInfo_Struct.

Branches: main

Bug fixes for the Java back-end.
The standard library now almost compiles in grade java.

compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Output Java foreign declarations before any other code,
	to fix a problem with references to the TYPE_CTOR_REP
	constants in library/private_builtin.m.

	Fix some bugs where we were not being consistent about mangling
	the module name when naming the classes used to simulate taking
	procedure addresses.  This bug broke Java compilation of library/char.m.

	Fix some bugs where the compiler was getting confused about
	which types map to array types in Java.

	For MLDS casts that cast to type_info or pseudo_type_info,
	generate Java constructor calls, not Java casts.
	This fixes type errors in the generated Java code.

	Simplify the code for hand_defined_type.

compiler/rtti.m:
	Fix a bug in tc_rtti_name_java_type: map typeclass_infos to
	the Java type "java.lang.Object[]", not "java.lang.Integer[]".
	The latter didn't work because the elements which hold the method
	addresses do not have type java.lang.Integer.

java/runtime/DuExistInfo.java:
java/runtime/NotagFunctorDesc.java:
	Define constructors for these types.

java/runtime/TypeInfo_Struct.java:
	Define some additional constructors for this type.

library/builtin.m:
	Provide Java stub definitions of
	- classes for the types func/0 and c_pointer/0;
	- unify/compare preds for func, c_pointer, tuple, and void;

	Define Java definitions for the additional modes of compare/3
	(they just call the first mode).

library/exception.m:
	Define Java versions of make_io_state and consume_io_state,
	and Java stubs for throw_impl and catch_impl.

	Change try_all so that it calls catch_impl, like try does,
	rather than calling builtin_catch directly.  This is needed
	since the .NET and Java back-ends only define catch_impl,
	not builtin_catch.

library/io.m:
	Provide Java `pragma foreign_type' declarations for the types
	array.array(T) and io.system_error.  This is needed to avoid
	compilation errors when building in grade `java'.

library/private_builtin.m:
	Delete the Java definition of the type_info for type_info/1,
	because that is generated automatically now,
	after petdr's recent bug fix.

	Provide Java stubs definitions of the unify/compare preds
	for ref/1, heap_pointer/0, type_ctor_info, type_info,
	base_typeclass_info, and typeclass_info.

	Provide Java definition of dummy_var.

library/type_desc.m:
	Provide Java stub definitions of
	- classes for type_desc/0 and type_ctor_desc/0
	- unify/compare preds for those types

library/store.m:
	Define unification and comparison predicates for the store(S)
	type.  This is needed because the automatically generated ones
	might not have the right semantics, but also because the Java
	back-end generates some invalid code for the automatically
	generated unification and compare predicates (the generated
	code has some invalid references to "dummy_var").

Bug fixes for the Java back-end.

compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Fix a bug where we were outputting an incorrect type for nested
	structure initializers
	Fix a bug where we were outputting invalid syntax for some
	array initializers.
	Fix a bug where the code output for string comparisons was not properly
	parenthesized.

compiler/mlds.m:
	Add a new argument to init_struct that specifies the type of
	the structure being initialized.  This is needed to handled
	nested structure initializers for the Java back-end.

compiler/rtti.m:
	Add new alternatives to ctor_rtti_name for all the types which
	are used as nested components of RTTI structures.  This is
	needed in order to have appropriate RTTI types to use in
	rtti_to_mlds.m for the new field of init_struct.

Estimated hours taken: 4
Branches: main

This diff makes hlds_pred.m and many callers of its predicates easier to read
and to maintain, but contains no changes in algorithms whatsoever.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Bring this module into line with our current coding standards.
	Use predmode declarations, functions, and state variable syntax
	when appropriate.

	Reorder arguments of predicates where necessary for the use of state
	variable syntax, and where this improves readability.

	Replace old-style lambdas with new-style lambdas or with partially
	applied named procedures.

	Standardize indentation.

compiler/*.m:
	Conform to the changes in hlds_pred.m. This mostly means using the
	new argument orders of predicates exported by hlds_pred.m. Where this
	is now conveniently possible, change predicates to use state
	variable notation.

	In some modules, using state variable notation required changing the
	orders of arguments in the module's top predicate.

compiler/passes_aux.m:
	Change the order of arguments in the calls this module makes to
	allow the callees to use state variable notation.

	Convert this module to state variable notation too.

f007b45df8 Implement the infrastructure for term size profiling.
Estimated hours taken: 400
Branches: main

Implement the infrastructure for term size profiling. This means adding two
new grade components, tsw and tsc, and implementing them in the LLDS code
generator. In grades including tsw (term size words), each term is augmented
with an extra word giving the number of heap words it contains; in grades
including tsc (term size cells), each term is augmented with an extra word
giving the number of heap cells it contains. The extra word is at the start,
at offset -1, to leave almost all of the machinery for accessing the heap
unchanged.

For now, the only way to access term sizes is with a new mdb command,
"term_size <varspec>". Later, we will use term sizes in conjunction with
deep profiling to do experimental complexity analysis, but that requires
a lot more research. This diff is a necessary first step.

The implementation of term size profiling consists of three main parts:

- a source-to-source transform that computes the size of each heap cell
  when it is constructed (and increments it in the rare cases when a free
  argument of an existing heap cell is bound),

- a relatively small change to the code generator that reserves the extra
  slot in new heap cells, and

- extensions to the facilities for creating cells from C code to record
  the extra information we now need.

The diff overhauls polymorphism.m to make the source-to-source transform
possible. This overhaul includes separating type_ctor_infos and type_infos
as strictly as possible from each other, converting type_ctor_infos into
type_infos only as necessary. It also includes separating type_ctor_infos,
type_infos, base_typeclass_infos and typeclass_infos (as well as voids,
for clarity) from plain user-defined type constructors in type categorizations.
This change needs this separation because values of those four types do not
have size slots, but they ought to be treated specially in other situations
as well (e.g. by tabling).

The diff adds a new mdb command, term_size. It also replaces the proc_body
mdb command with new ways of using the existing print and browse commands
("print proc_body" and "browse proc_body") in order to make looking at
procedure bodies more controllable. This was useful in debugging the effect
of term size profiling on some test case outputs. It is not strictly tied
to term size profiling, but turns out to be difficult to disentangle.

compiler/size_prof.m:
	A new module implementing the source-to-source transform.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
	Mention the new module.

compiler/transform_hlds.m:
	Include size_prof as a submodule of transform_hlds.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	If term size profiling is enabled, invoke its source-to-source
	transform.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Extend construction unifications with an optional slot for recording
	the size of the term if the size is a constant, or the identity of the
	variable holding the size, if the size is not constant. This is
	needed by the source-to-source transform.

compiler/quantification.m:
	Treat the variable reference that may be in this slot as a nonlocal
	variable of construction unifications, since the code generator needs
	this.

compiler/compile_target_code.m:
	Handle the new grade components.

compiler/options.m:
	Implement the options that control term size profiling.

doc/user_guide.texi:
	Document the options and grade components that control term size
	profiling, and the term_size mdb command. The documentation is
	commented out for now.

	Modify the wording of the 'u' HLDS dump flag to include other details
	of unifications (e.g. term size info) rather than just unification
	categories.

	Document the new alternatives of the print and browse commands. Since
	they are for developers only, the documentation is commented out.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Handle the implications of term size profiling grades.

	Add a -D flag value to print HLDS components relevant to HLDS
	transformations.

compiler/modules.m:
	Import the new builtin library module that implements the operations
	needed by term size profiling automatically in term size profiling
	grades.

	Switch the predicate involved to use state var syntax.

compiler/prog_util.m:
	Add predicates and functions that return the sym_names of the modules
	needed by term size profiling.

compiler/code_info.m:
compiler/unify_gen.m:
compiler/var_locn.m:
 	Reserve an extra slot in heap cells and fill them in in unifications
	marked by size_prof.

compiler/builtin_ops.m:
	Add term_size_prof_builtin.term_size_plus as a builtin, with the same
	implementation as int.+.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Disable warnings about clauses for builtins while the change to
	builtin_ops is bootstrapped.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Export predicates that generate goals to create type_infos and
	type_ctor_infos to add_to_construct.m. Rewrite their documentation
	to make it more detailed.

	Make orders of arguments amenable to the use of state variable syntax.

	Consolidate knowledge of which type categories have builtin unify and
	compare predicates in one place.

	Add code to leave the types of type_ctor_infos alone: instead of
	changing their types to type_info when used as arguments of other
	type_infos, create a new variable of type type_info instead, and
	use an unsafe_cast. This would make the HLDS closer to being type
	correct, but this new code is currently commented out, for two
	reasons. First, common.m is currently not smart enough to figure out
	that if X and Y are equal, then similar unsafe_casts of X and Y
	are also equal, and this causes the compiler do not detect some
	duplicate calls it used to detect. Second, the code generators
	are also not smart enough to know that if Z is an unsafe_cast of X,
	then X and Z do not need separate stack slots, but can use the same
	slot.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Add utility predicates for returning the types of type_infos and
	type_ctor_infos, for use by new code in polymorphism.m.

	Move some utility predicates here from other modules, since they
	are now used by more than one module.

	Rename the type `builtin_type' as `type_category', to better reflect
	what it does. Extend it to put the type_info, type_ctor_info,
	typeclass_info, base_typeclass_info and void types into categories
	of their own: treating these types as if they were a user-defined
	type (which is how they used to be classified) is not always correct.
	Rename the functor polymorphic_type to variable_type, since types
	such as list(T) are polymorphic, but they fall into the user-defined
	category. Rename user_type as user_ctor_type, since list(int) is not
	wholly user-defined but falls into this category. Rename pred_type
	as higher_order_type, since it also encompasses functions.

	Replace code that used to check for a few of the alternatives
	of this type with code that does a full switch on the type,
	to ensure that they are updated if the type definition ever
	changes again.

compiler/pseudo_type_info.m:
	Delete a predicate whose updated implementation is now in type_util.m.

compiler/mlds_to_c.m:
compiler/mlds_to_gcc.m:
compiler/mlds_to_il.m:
compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Still treat type_infos, type_ctor_infos, typeclass_infos and
	base_typeclass_infos as user-defined types, but prepare for when
	they won't be.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Require interface typeinfo liveness when term size profiling is
	enabled.

	Add term_size_profiling_builtin.increase_size as a
	no_type_info_builtin.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Print the size annotations on unifications if HLDS dump flags call
	for unification details. (The flag test is in the caller of the
	modified predicate.)

compiler/llds.m:
	Extend incr_hp instructions and data_addr_consts with optional fields
	that allow the code generator to refer to N words past the start of
	a static or dynamic cell. Term size profiling uses this with N=1.

compiler/llds_out.m:
	When allocating memory on the heap, use the macro variants that
	specify an optional offset, and specify the offset when required.

	Replace all uses of MR_incr_hp with MR_offset_incr_hp, to ensure
	that we haven't overlooked any places where offsets may need to be
	specified.

	Fix formatting of foreign_procs.

	Use new macros defined by the runtime system when constructing
	terms (which all happen to be lists) in C code. These new macros
	specify the types of the cell arguments, allowing the implementation
	to figure out the size of the new cell based on the sizes of its
	fields.

library/private_builtin.m:
	Define some constant type_info structures for use by these macros.
	They cannot be defined in the runtime, since they refer to types
	defined in the library (list.list and std_util.univ).

util/mkinit.c:
	Make the addresses of these type_info structures available to the
	runtime.

runtime/mercury_init.h:
	Declare these type_info structures, for use in mkinit-generated
	*_init.c files.

runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
	Declare and define the variables that hold these addresses, for use
	in the new macros for constructing typed lists.

	Since term size profiling can refer to a memory cell by a pointer
	that is offset by one word, register the extra offsets with the Boehm
	collector if is being used.

	Document the incompatibility of MR_HIGHTAGS and the Boehm collector.

runtime/mercury_tags.h:
	Define new macros for constructing typed lists.

	Provide macros for preserving the old interface presented by this file
	to the extent possible. Uses of the old MR_list_cons macro will
	continue to work in grades without term size profiling. In term
	size profiling grades, their use will get a C compiler error.

	Fix a bug caused by a missing backslash.

runtime/mercury_heap.h:
	Change the basic macros for allocating new heap cells to take
	an optional offset argument. If this is nonzero, the macros
	increment the returned address by the given number of words.
	Term size profiling specifies offset=1, reserving the extra
	word at the start (which is ignored by all components of the
	system except term size profiling) for holding the size of the term.

	Provide macros for preserving the old interface presented by this file
	to the extent possible. Since the old MR_create[123] and MR_list_cons
	macros did not specify type information, they had to be changed
	to take additional arguments. This affects only hand-written C code.

	Call new diagnostic macros that can help debug heap allocations.

	Document why the macros in this files must expand to expressions
	instead of statements, evn though the latter would be preferable
	(e.g. by allowing them to declare and use local variables without
	depending on gcc extensions).

runtime/mercury_debug.[ch]:
	Add diagnostic macros to debug heap allocations, and the functions
	behind them if MR_DEBUG_HEAP_ALLOC is defined.

	Update the debugging routines for hand-allocated cells to print the
	values of the term size slot as well as the other slots in the relevant
	grades.

runtime/mercury_string.h:
	Provide some needed variants of the macro for copying strings.

runtime/mercury_deconstruct_macros.h:
runtime/mercury_type_info.c:
	Supply type information when constructing terms.

runtime/mercury_deep_copy_body.h:
	Preserve the term size slot when copying terms.

runtime/mercury_deep_copy_body.h:
runtime/mercury_ho_call.c:
runtime/mercury_ml_expand_body.h:
	Use MR_offset_incr_hp instead of MR_incr_hp to ensure that all places
	that allocate cells also allocate space for the term size slot if
	necessary.

	Reduce code duplication by using a now standard macro for copying
	strings.

runtime/mercury_grade.h:
	Handle the two new grade components.

runtime/mercury_conf_param.h:
	Document the C macros used to control the two new grade components,
	as well as MR_DEBUG_HEAP_ALLOC.

	Detect incompatibilities between high level code and profiling.

runtime/mercury_term_size.[ch]:
	A new module to house a function to find and return term sizes
	stored in heap cells.

runtime/mercury_proc_id.h:
runtime/mercury_univ.h:
	New header files. mercury_proc_id.h contains the (unchanged)
	definition of MR_Proc_Id, while mercury_univ.h contains the
	definitions of the macros for manipulating univs that used to be
	in mercury_type_info.h, updated to use the new macros for allocating
	memory.

	In the absence of these header files, the following circularity
	would ensue:

	mercury_deep_profiling.h includes mercury_stack_layout.h
		- needs definition of MR_Proc_Id
	mercury_stack_layout.h needs mercury_type_info.h
		- needs definition of MR_PseudoTypeInfo
	mercury_type_info.h needs mercury_heap.h
		- needs heap allocation macros for MR_new_univ_on_hp
	mercury_heap.h includes mercury_deep_profiling.h
		- needs MR_current_call_site_dynamic for recording allocations

	Breaking the circular dependency in two places, not just one, is to
	minimize similar problems in the future.

runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
	Delete the definition of MR_Proc_Id, which is now in mercury_proc_id.h.

runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
	Delete the macros for manipulating univs, which are now in
	mercury_univ.h.

runtime/Mmakefile:
	Mention the new files.

runtime/mercury_imp.h:
runtime/mercury.h:
runtime/mercury_construct.c:
runtime/mercury_deep_profiling.h:
	Include the new files at appropriate points.

runtime/mercury.c:
	Change the names of the functions that create heap cells for
	hand-written code, since the interface to hand-written code has
	changed to include type information.

runtime/mercury_tabling.h:
	Delete some unused macros.

runtime/mercury_trace_base.c:
runtime/mercury_type_info.c:
	Use the new macros supplying type information when constructing lists.

scripts/canonical_grade_options.sh-subr:
	Fix an undefined sh variable bug that could cause error messages
	to come out without identifying the program they were from.

scripts/init_grade_options.sh-subr:
scripts/parse_grade_options.sh-subr:
scripts/canonical_grade_options.sh-subr:
scripts/mgnuc.in:
	Handle the new grade components and the options controlling them.

trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
	Implement the mdb command "term_size <varspec>", which is like
	"print <varspec>", but prints the size of a term instead of its value.
	In non-term-size-profiling grades, it prints an error message.

	Replace the "proc_body" command with optional arguments to the "print"
	and "browse" commands.

doc/user_guide.tex:
	Add documentation of the term_size mdb command. Since the command is
	for implementors only, and works only in grades that are not yet ready
	for public consumption, the documentation is commented out.

	Add documentation of the new arguments of the print and browse mdb
	commands. Since they are for implementors only, the documentation
	is commented out.

trace/mercury_trace_vars.[ch]:
	Add the functions needed to implement the term_size command, and
	factor out the code common to the "size" and "print"/"browse" commands.

	Decide whether to print the name of a variable before invoking the
	supplied print or browse predicate on it based on a flag design for
	this purpose, instead of overloading the meaning of the output FILE *
	variable. This arrangement is much clearer.

trace/mercury_trace_browse.c:
trace/mercury_trace_external.c:
trace/mercury_trace_help.c:
	Supply type information when constructing terms.

browser/program_representation.m:
	Since the new library module term_size_prof_builtin never generates
	any events, mark it as such, so that the declarative debugger doesn't
	expect it to generate any.

	Do the same for the deep profiling builtin module.

tests/debugger/term_size_words.{m,inp,exp}:
tests/debugger/term_size_cells.{m,inp,exp}:
	Two new test cases, each testing one of the new grades.

tests/debugger/Mmakefile:
	Enable the two new test cases in their grades.

	Disable the tests sensitive to stack frame sizes in term size profiling
	grades.

tests/debugger/completion.exp:
	Add the new "term_size" mdb command to the list of command completions,
	and delete "proc_body".

tests/debugger/declarative/dependency.{inp,exp}:
	Use "print proc_body" instead of "proc_body".

tests/hard_coded/nondet_c.m:
tests/hard_coded/pragma_inline.m:
	Use MR_offset_incr_hp instead of MR_incr_hp to ensure that all places
	that allocate cells also allocate space for the term size slot if
	necessary.

tests/valid/Mmakefile:
	Disable the IL tests in term size profiling grades, since the term size
	profiling primitives haven't been (and probably won't be) implemented
	for the MLDS backends, and handle_options causes a compiler abort
	for grades that combine term size profiling and any one of IL, Java
	and high level C.

31a4f2d85e Some fixes to the Java back-end to make it support RTTI
Estimated hours taken: 18
Branches: main

Some fixes to the Java back-end to make it support RTTI
better.  The aim is to at least be able to *compile* code
that makes use of polymorphism (e.g. the Mercury standard
library!), although that aim is not yet achieved with this diff.
Getting code which actually *uses* the RTTI to work is still
a long way off...

compiler/rtti.m:
compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Fix some bugs in the code to output RTTI type names.

compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Output the RTTI definitions.  This is needed to avoid errors
	in code which references them.

	Handle initializers better; in particular deal with nested
	initializers properly.

	Pass the current module name down to output_lval, so that we can
	module-qualify data names only if they occur in a different

	in other modules gets module-qualified, but local variables don't.

	Add comments in the generated output code when generating
	"java.lang.Object", so that it is clearer what kind of object
	is involved.

	Add some special treatment for the types with hand-defined RTTI.

Estimated hours taken: 16
Branches: main

Instead of being relied on all over the place, centralize the compiler's
knowledge of the names of unify, compare and index predicates in one place,
special_pred.m. This should make it easy to change the naming scheme once
we switch over to compiler-generated type_ctor_infos for builtin types,
which will eliminate the runtime system's knowledge of the naming scheme.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add a field to pred_infos that says whether the predicate is a unify,
	compare or index predicate, and if so, for which type constructor.
	Code that used to test the predicate's name for __Unify__ etc now
	tests this field instead. Similarly the code that used to employ
	devious tricks to find out the type the unify/compare/index predicate
	is for.

compiler/rtti.m:
	Include this field in rtti_proc_labels as well as pred_infos.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Fill in this field as appropriate.

compiler/proc_label.m:
	Replace the predicate name with special_pred_id in the proc_labels
	of unify, index and compare preds.

compiler/special_pred.m:
	Narrow the interface to prevent reliance on the naming scheme
	for compiler-generated unify, compare and index predicates,
	except when absolutely necessary, i.e. when creating names for
	them.

	Narrow the mechanism required to reverse-engineer the type constructor
	a unify/compare/index predicate is for from the types to the
	functionality required by higher_order.m.

More fixes to make the Java back-end work better.

compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Fix a bug in the name mangling, where we were adding an "mr_"
	prefix to uses (but not definitions) of types whose name
	happens to be a Java keyword.  We don't need to add an "mr_"
	prefix for those cases, since the "_0" appended for the arity
	will already ensure that the name is not a Java keyword.

	Fix a bug where we were not outputting the correct Java type
	for Mercury types of the form array(T) where T is a type variable.
	For those types, we need to output "java.lang.Object", not
	"java.lang.Object[]", since the type needs to be able to
	hold arrays of any type, e.g. "int[]".

	Simplify the handling of procedures declared `external':
	rather than defining foo() as a forwarding procedure that
	calls extern_foo(), just leave foo() undefined, and assume
	that the `pragma java_code' for this module defineds foo().

Branches: main

Fix two related anomalies. One was that base_typeclass_infos were being
created using the fcailities of rtti.m, but they were being referred to
using data_addr, not rtti_addr, in the LLDS backend, and they had similar
special treatment in the MLDS backend. The second is the special treatment of
base_typeclass_infos within rtti.m, rtti_out.m and rtti_to_mlds.m, due
to the fact that unlike the other data structures defined in rtti.m,
their id does not include an rtti_type_ctor. When we move over to the
proposed data structures for representing type class and instance
information, base_typeclass_infos won't be alone in not including
an rtti_type_ctor in their id.

404abb0c57 Another step towards RTTI in Mercury.
Estimated hours taken: 32
Branches: main

Another step towards RTTI in Mercury.

This step redefines the representation of type_ctor_infos inside the compiler
to be identical to the representation we will need for efficient interpretation
of RTTI data structures in Mercury, following on from an earlier step which
did the same for (pseudo)typeinfos.

Instead of the type_ctor_info being broken down into its components in
type_ctor_info.m, the breakdown process is now performed in rtti_out.m (for the
LLDS backend) and rtti_to_mlds.m (for the MLDS backend). Eventually, the IL and
Java backends will stop using rtti_to_mlds.m for this purpose, and will instead
write out the type_ctor_data structures as static data to be interpreted
directly.

We now predefine the C types representing type_info and pseudo_type_infos
for types of arity up to 20 for the LLDS C backend as well as for the
MLDS C backend. The LLDS backend can define them for higher arities
on demand; the MLDS backend (for now) still cannot.

runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
	To be able to represent all the kinds of types we now support

	- add a data structure for converting values of reserved_addr types
	  from their printable representation to their internal representation
	  (it was previously missing), and

	- add a type_ctor_rep to represent foreign types.

	Add missing MR_ prefixes on some field names.

	Add typedefs for all the types that the rtti_names can refer to.
	There were already such typedefs in runtime/mercury.h for the MLDS
	grades, we now have them for the LLDS grades too.

	Predefine the C types representing type_info and pseudo_type_infos
	for types of arity up to 20. There were already such typedefs in
	runtime/mercury.h for the MLDS grades, we now have them for the
	LLDS grades too.

runtime/mercury.h:
	Delete the typedefs that are now in mercury_type_info.h.

runtime/mercury.h:
	Delete the definitions of the C types representing type_info and
	pseudo_type_infos, since these are now in mercury_type_info.h.
	#include mercury_type_info.h.

compiler/rtti.m:
	Add new, purely Mercury data structures for representing
	type_ctor_infos and their components, designed both for efficient
	interpretation and as a source for the generation of static data
	structures in C.

	This entailed deleting most of the alternatives of the rtti_data type
	while preserving their rtti_name equivalents; the deleted alternatives
	represent tables are no longer created in type_ctor_info.m but which
	are created dynamically in rtti_out.m and rtti_to_mlds.m (which need
	a way for one table to refer to another).

	Centralize the correspondence between rtti_names and the C and Java
	types of the corresponding structures (the C and Java names differ in
	prefixes only). Among other things, this remove the double maintenance
	problem we have previously with the LLDS and MLDS backends maintaining
	their own maps of the correspondence.

	Add utility predicates on the new data structures for use by both
	rtti_out.m and rtti_to_mlds.m.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Always store the ids of unification and comparison procedures in
	type_ctor_gen_infos, to simplify their handling.

compiler/rtti_out.m:

	Rewrite substantial parts of these modules to convert the new data
	structures for representing type_ctor_infos to sets of discrete
	structures dynamically.

	Most of the dynamically created structures are unique by construction,
	but this is not true for typeinfos and pseudo-typeinfos. Therefore
	add mechanisms to ensure that we don't generate redundant structures
	representing typeinfos and pseudo-typeinfos.

Fix problems with the compiler-generated header files:
1. the header files are grade dependent, but the header files
   can only be installed for one grade.
2. the generated header files can clash with system headers.

To solve these problems, the compiler now generates a
grade dependent `.mih' file containing the declarations
needed when a module is imported in a high-level C code
grade, and a grade independent `.mh' file, which contains
the prototypes for `:- pragma export' declarations.

compiler/export.m:

	declarations.

    When outputting pragma c_code variables that represent foreign_types
    get the casts correct.  Note that this adds the constraint on C
    foreign types that they are word sized, as all we are doing is
    casts, not boxing and unboxing.

compiler/mlds.m:

43fbf4b956 A step towards RTTI in Mercury.
Estimated hours taken: 40
Branches: main

A step towards RTTI in Mercury.

This step redefines the representation of pseudo-typeinfos inside the compiler
to be identical to the representation we will need for efficient interpretation
of RTTI data structures in Mercury. Later steps will do likewise for
typectorinfos. In the end, we will have two implementations of RTTI:
the current low-level, very efficient one written in C, which will be used
by the C backends (both LLDS and MLDS), and a new, higher-level one
which will use Mercury data structures and Mercury predicates for
interpretation (along the lines of library/rtti_implementation.m)
for the Java and IL backends.

A large part of this change concerns the fact that pseudo-typeinfos can now
contain typeinfos as well as other pseudo-typeinfos, and they do in the
frequent case that the type of an argument is ground. Given that typeinfos
are just special cases of pseudo-typeinfos, the code for handling the two
types is usually similar, with common code factored out when relevant.

In the process of redesigning the data structures concerning (pseudo-)
typeinfos, I also fixed an old naming scheme that has become misleading.
The representation of a (pseudo-) typeinfo depends on whether the principal
type constructor is fixed arity or not. We used to denote this distinction
with the phrases first-order vs higher-order, since at first the only variable
arity type constructors were pred and func. However, this hasn't been true
since we added tuples. I have changed the naming scheme to be fixed-arity vs
variable-arity.

compiler/rtti.m:
	Add new, purely Mercury data structures for representing typeinfos
	and pseudo-typeinfos, designed both for efficient interpretation
	and as a source for the generation of static data structures in C.

compiler/pseudo_type_info.m:
	Delete the type definitions here, since they are superseded by the new
	definitions in rtti.m.

	Add predicates for constructing typeinfos as well as pseudo-typeinfos,
	since now we need those too.

	Conform to the changed data structures for (pseudo-) typeinfos.

compiler/mlds_to_c.m:

	Handle mlds__type_info_type.

compiler/mlds_to_gcc.m:
	Conform to the changed data structures for (pseudo-) typeinfos,
	and handle mlds__type_info_type.

runtime/mercury_bootstrap.h:
	Override the compiler-generated names of the type_ctor_infos of the
	variable arity type constructors. The MLDS backend requires these
	to be module qualified; the LLDS backend requires them to be
	unqualified. This is a problem because the same code now generates
	the compiler's internal representation of pseudo-typeinfos for both
	backends.

	The temporary solution is to have the compiler generate these names
	module qualified, and have these macros convert them to the unqualified
	form. (The long term solution should be to always module qualify
	everything, but doing that is for another change.)

runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
	Change the naming scheme from first order vs higher order to fixed
	arity vs variable arity.

compiler/foreign.m:
    Implement to_type_string which replaces export__type_to_type_string,
    unlike export__type_to_type_string foreign__to_type_string takes an
    argument specifying which language the representation is meant to be
    in.  to_type_string also needs to take a module_info to handle
    foreign_types correctly.  To avoid the need for the module_info to
    be passed around the MLDS backend we provide a new type
    exported_type which provides enough information for an alternate
    version of to_type_string to be called.

compiler/export.m:
    Delete export__type_to_type_string.

compiler/llds.m:
    Since foreign__to_type_string needs a module_info, we add a new
    field to pragma_c_arg_decl which is the result of calling
    foreign__to_type_string.  This avoids threading the module_info
    around various llds passes.

compiler/mlds.m:

    passing the module_info around the MLDS backend.

d4965acd72 Implement arrays in the .NET backend.
Estimated hours taken: 15
Branches: main

Implement arrays in the .NET backend.

Arrays are implemented in an unusual way.
array(T) is mapped to the .NET type T[] for all concrete types T.
However, if T is a type variable, we map array(T) to System.Array.

System.Array is the superclass of all array types, so we can always
pass T[] where System.Array is expected.

This mapping allows us to use the Mercury array library module to
operate on arrays that may be exposed by other .NET components (for
example Byte[] or int[]).

In some cases the Mercury compiler will know the value of T, but it may
be calling code that operates on array(T) in a generic fashion.
If the callee returns an array(T), the Mercury compiler can be sure
that this is really T[], but the .NET backend is not that clever.

In that case we have to cast from System.Array to T[] after the call.
(This is very similar to how we unbox return values with type T where T is
known in the caller but not the callee).
We also insert casts from T[] to System.Array -- although they are not
strictly necessary.

compiler/ml_call_gen.m:
	Implement the cast to the known instance of array(T) for return
	values of array.

compiler/mlds.m:
	Add a new MLDS type mlds__mercury_array_type to represent the
	Mercury array/1 type.
	Turn the Mercury type array/1 into mlds__mercury_array_type.

compiler/mlds_to_c.m:
compiler/mlds_to_gcc.m:
	Use MR_Word to represent mlds__mercury_array_type, unless we are
	using --high-level-data, in which case we use the appropriately
	named high-level-data type.

compiler/mlds_to_il.m:
	Draw a distinction between the il_object_array_type (object[])
	and the il_generic_array_type (class System.Array).
	Map mlds__mercury_array_type(ElemType) to class System.Array if
	ElemType is a type variable, or ElemType[] otherwise.

compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
	Map mlds__mercury_array_type(ElemType) to class Object[] if
	ElemType is a type variable, or ElemType[] otherwise.
	(type variables are mapped to Object anyway, so this falls
	out of the code anyway).
	(This is untested).

Estimated hours taken: 40
Branches: main

Refactor the top level of mlds_to_il so that we only do one pass over
the MLDS to generate the ILDS.  As a side effect of this change nondet
code now works again.

compiler/mlds_to_il.m:
    Do a MLDS to MLDS transformation which places all the procedures and
    data into the mercury_code class.  Then modify all the qualifiers to
    take account of this change to the code.
    Rewrite the top level so that it only does one pass over the MLDS
    data structure.
    Examine the flags when deciding which attributes to place on a
    method, field or class.

compiler/mlds.m:
    Add a new field to mlds__class_defn which is the list of
    defns which are constructors for this class.
    Add the functions mlds__append_mercury_code and mlds__append_name
    which append either "mercury_code" or an arbitary string to the
    module qualifier of a name.

compiler/ml_elim_nested.m:
    Rather then hardcoding the generation of the constructor for the
    environment class, we generate it here as an MLDS method.
    On the IL backend the mercury code is placed in a seperate class to
    the environment data, so the env_type decls must be public so as to
    be accessible from the code.

compiler/ml_code_util.m:
    Wrapper functions should be static methods not instance methods.
    Fix ml_gen_label_func_decl_flags to make this true.

The .NET backend requires that names are not only qualified with their
namespace but the source package the name comes from.  In this change we
back out a previous solution to this problem and implement a much
neater solution where we hide the package name in the abstract type
mlds_module_name.

This solution is neater because the package name shouldn't change once
the name is defined.  All that we may have to change is the qualifiers
to the name.

76ac44335d Implement a C# interface for the .NET backend.
Estimated hours taken: 45
Branches: main

Implement a C# interface for the .NET backend.

To use it, you currently need to set
	--backend-foreign-language csharp --use-foreign-language csharp
in your MCFLAGS.

The C# foreign language interface works by introducing a new sort of
MLDS statement called outline_foreign_proc.  outline_foreign_proc is expected
to be turned into a separate procedure in a separate file.  This is
quite different to normal foreign code which has been renamed as inline
target code, as it is really intended to be generated inline, inside the
generated code.

Because outline_foreign_proc is expected to be generated outside the
normal code, we don't need to generate variable renamings,
initializations, casts and other complicated interfacing code.

Any marshalling is done by the backend, which knows how to marshall
arguments across the boundary into the outline code and back.  In the
case of marshalling to C# from the .NET backend, we currently don't do
anything special (part of the point of .NET is that data
representation don't have to change very often just because you are
using different languages, so this is a property we should try to
preserve).

The actual implementation of the foreign code is therefore very simple.
Simply generate an appropriate procedure, and insert the user's code in
the middle.

The bulk of this change to delay the mangling of MLDS var names, so we
can still use the original user's var name when we output the outline
procedure (since the user's foreign code will refer to these var names,
it's important to keep them around).

compiler/foreign.m:
	Handle the csharp foreign language.

compiler/globals.m:
	Fix an XXX about converting to lowercase to do language name
	comparisons.
	Add new predicates to make conversion of foreign languages
	to strings more uniform.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	Don't set backend_foreign_language to the default if it has
	already been set by hand.

compiler/ml_call_gen.m:
compiler/ml_code_gen.m:
compiler/ml_code_util.m:

	Slightly generalize the handling of foreign language interfacing.
	Handle C# foreign language interfacing.

	Add value_output_vars to the ml_gen_info, which are the variables
	returned rather than passed by reference.  We need to know
	these variables for C# interfacing so that we can handle the return
	value of the forwarding function.

	Mark the beginning and end of the MLDS foreign language processing as
	a "sub-module" (in comments at least).  Later I may put this code
	into a separate module.
