Aditi compilation.
Estimated hours taken: 1200
Aditi compilation.
compiler/options.m:
The documentation for these is commented out because the Aditi
system is not currently useful to the general public.
--aditi: enable Aditi compilation.
--dump-rl: write the intermediate RL to `<module>.rl_dump'.
--dump-rl-bytecode: write a text version of the bytecodes
to `<module>.rla'
--aditi-only: don't produce a `.c' file.
--filenames-from-stdin: accept a list of filenames to compile
from stdin. This is used by the query shell.
--optimize-rl, --optimize-rl-cse, --optimize-rl-invariants,
--optimize-rl-index, --detect-rl-streams:
Options to control RL optimization passes.
--aditi-user:
Default owner of any Aditi procedures,
defaults to $USER or "guest".
--generate-schemas:
write schemas for base relations to `<module>'.base_schema
and schemas for derived relations to `<module>'.derived_schema.
This is used by the query shell.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Handle the default for --aditi-user.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
Add some Aditi pragma declarations - `aditi', `supp_magic', `context',
`naive', `psn' (predicate semi-naive), `aditi_memo', `aditi_no_memo',
`base_relation', `owner' and `index'.
Separate out code to parse a predicate name and arity.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Add predicates to identify Aditi procedures.
Added markers `generate_inline' and `aditi_interface', which
are used internally for Aditi code generation.
Add an `owner' field to pred_infos, which is used for database
security checks.
Add a field to pred_infos to hold the list of indexes for a base
relation.
compiler/make_hlds.m:
Some pragmas must be exported if the corresponding predicates
are exported, check this.
Make sure stratification of Aditi procedures is checked.
Predicates with a mode declaration but no type declaration
are no longer assumed to be local.
Set the `do_aditi_compilation' field of the module_info if there
are any local Aditi procedures or base relations.
Check that `--aditi' is set if Aditi compilation is required.
compiler/post_typecheck.m:
Check that every Aditi predicate has an `aditi__state' argument,
which is used to ensure sequencing of updates and that Aditi
procedures are only called within transactions.
compiler/dnf.m:
Changed the definition of disjunctive normal form slightly
so that a call followed by some atomic goals not including
any database calls is considered atomic. magic.m can handle
this kind of goal, and it results in more efficient RL code.
compiler/hlds_module.m:
compiler/dependency_graph.m:
Added dependency_graph__get_scc_entry_points which finds
the procedures in an SCC which could be called from outside.
Added a new field to the dependency_info, the
aditi_dependency_ordering. This contains all Aditi SCCs of
the original program, with multiple SCCs merged where
possible to improve the effectiveness of differential evaluation
and the low level RL optimizations.
compiler/hlds_module.m:
Add a field to record whether there are any local Aditi procedures
in the current module.
Added versions of module_info_pred_proc_info and
module_info_set_pred_proc_info which take a pred_proc_id,
not a separate pred_id and proc_id.
compiler/polymorphism.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
Make sure that predicates created for closures in Aditi procedures
have the correct markers.
compiler/goal_util.m:
Added goal_util__switch_to_disjunction,
goal_util__case_to_disjunct (factored out from simplify.m)
and goal_util__if_then_else_to_disjunction. These are
require because supplementary magic sets can't handle
if-then-elses or switches.
compiler/type_util.m:
Added type_is_aditi_state/1.
compiler/mode_util.m:
Added partition_args/5 which partitions a list of arguments
into inputs and others.
compiler/inlining.m:
Don't inline memoed procedures.
Don't inline Aditi procedures into non-Aditi procedures.
compiler/intermod.m:
Handle Aditi markers.
Clean up handling of markers which should not appear in `.opt' files.
compiler/simplify.m:
Export a slightly different interface for use by magic.m.
Remove explicit quantifications where possible.
Merge multiple nested quantifications.
Don't report infinite recursion warnings for Aditi procedures.
compiler/prog_out.m:
Generalised the code to output a module list to write any list.
compiler/code_gen.m:
compiler/arg_info.m:
Don't process Aditi procedures.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Call magic.m and rl_gen.m.
Don't perform the low-level annotation passes on Aditi procedures.
Remove calls to constraint.m - sometime soon a rewritten version
will be called directly from deforestation.
compiler/passes_aux.m:
Add predicates to process only non-Aditi procedures.
compiler/llds.m:
compiler/llds_out.m:
Added new `code_addr' enum members, do_{det,semidet,nondet}_aditi_call,
which are defined in extras/aditi/aditi.m.
compiler/call_gen.m:
Handle generation of do_*_aditi_call.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Write the RL code for the module as a constant char array
in the `.c' file.
compiler/term_errors.m:
compiler/error_util.m:
Move code to describe predicates into error_util.m
Allow the caller to explicitly add line breaks.
Added error_util:list_to_pieces to format a list of
strings.
Reordered some arguments for currying.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
Don't try to print clauses if there are none.
runtime/mercury_init.h:
util/mkinit.c:
scripts/c2init.in:
Added a function `mercury__load_aditi_rl_code()' to the generated
`<module>_init.c' file which throws all the RL code for the program
at the database. This should be called at connection time by
`aditi__connect'.
Added an option `--aditi' which controls the output
`mercury__load_aditi_rl_code()'.
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
Document the new files.
Mmakefile:
bindist/Mmakefile:
Don't distribute extras/aditi yet.
New files:
compiler/magic.m:
compiler/magic_util.m:
Supplementary magic sets transformation. Report errors
for constructs that Aditi can't handle.
compiler/context.m:
Supplementary context transformation.
compiler/rl_gen.m:
compiler/rl_relops.m:
Aditi code generation.

Print out the representation in rl.m.
compiler/rl_opt.m:
Control low-level RL optimizations.
compiler/rl_block.m:
Break a procedure into basic blocks.
compiler/rl_analyse.m:
Generic dataflow analysis for RL procedures.
compiler/rl_liveness.m:
Make sure all relations are initialised before used, clear
references to relations that are no longer required.
compiler/rl_loop.m:
Loop invariant removal.
compiler/rl_block_opt.m:
CSE and instruction merging on basic blocks.
compiler/rl_key.m:
Detect upper/lower bounds for which a goal could succeed.

RL bytecode definitions. Automatically generated from the Aditi
header files.
compiler/rl_out.m:
compiler/rl_file.m:
Output the RL bytecodes in binary to <module>.rlo (for use by Aditi)
and in text to <module>.rla (for use by the RL interpreter).
Also output the schema information if --generate-schemas is set.
compiler/rl_exprn.m:
Generate bytecodes for join conditions.

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. |

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

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

Give duplicate code elimination more teeth in dealing with similar arguments
Estimated hours taken: 20
Give duplicate code elimination more teeth in dealing with similar arguments
of different function symbols. For the source code
:- type t1 ---> f(int)
; g(int, int).
:- pred p1(t1::in, int::out) is det.
p1(f(Y), Y).
p1(g(Y, _), Y).
we now generate the C code
Define_entry(mercury__xdup__p1_2_0);
r1 = const_mask_field(r1, (Integer) 0);
proceed();
thus avoiding the cost of testing the function symbol.
runtime/mercury_tags.h:
Add two new macros, mask_field and const_mask_field, that behave
just like field and const_field except that instead of stripping
off a known tag from the pointer, they strip (mask) off an unknown
tag.
compiler/llds.m:
Change the first argument of the lval field/3 from tag to maybe(tag).
Make the comments on some types more readable.
compiler/llds_out.m:
If the first arg of the lval field/3 is no, emit a (const_)mask_field
macro; otherwise, emit a (const_)field macro.
compiler/basic_block.m:
New module to convert sequences of instructions to sequences of
basic blocks and vice versa. Used in the new dupelim.m.
compiler/dupelim.m:
Complete rewrite to give duplicate code elimination more teeth.
Whereas previously we eliminated blocks of code only if they exactly
duplicated other blocks of code, we now look for blocks that can be
"anti-unified". For example, the blocks
r1 = field(mktag(0), r2, 0)
goto L1
and
r1 = field(mktag(1), r2, 0)
<fall through to L1>
anti-unify, with the most specific common generalization being
r1 = mask_field(r2, 0)
goto L1
If several basic blocks antiunify, we replace one copy with the
antiunified block and try to eliminate the others. We do not
eliminate blocks that can be fallen into, since eliminating them
would require introducing a goto, which would slow the code down.
compiler/peephole,m:
If a conditional branch to a label is followed by that label or
by an unconditional branch to that label, eliminate the branch.
Dupelim produces this kind of code.
compiler/{code_exprn,exprn_aux,lookup_switch,opt_debug,unify_gen}.m:
Minor changes required by the change to field/3.
compiler/{frameopt,jumpopt,labelopt,mercury_compile,optimize,value_number}.m:
s/__main/_main/ in predicate names.
compiler/jumpopt.m:

Fix a module qualified predicate name reference that would not
work in Prolog.

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

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

Generate stack layouts for accurate garbage collection.
Estimated hours taken: 50 Generate stack layouts for accurate garbage collection. compiler/base_type_layout.m: Change the order of some arguments so that threaded data structures are more often in the final two arguments (allows easy use of higher order predicates). Simplify some code using higher order preds. Export base_type_layout__construct_pseudo_type_info, as stack_layout.m needs to be able to generate pseudo_type_infos too. Fix problems with cell numbers being re-used -- get the next cell number from module_info, and update module_info after processing base_type_layouts. compiler/code_gen.m: Add information about each procedure to the continuation info. Handle new field in c_procedure. compiler/continuation_info.m: Redesign most of this module to deal with labels that are continuation points for multiple calls. Change the order of some arguments so that threaded data structures are in the final two arguments. Cleaned up and documented code. compiler/dupelim.m: compiler/exprn_aux.m: Handle new label_entry data type. compiler/export.m: compiler/opt_debug.m: Handle new label_entry and general data types. compiler/llds_out.m: Add an argument to get_proc_label to control whether a "mercury_" prefix is wanted. Handle new label_entry and general data types. compiler/llds.m: Add a new alternative for data_const - a label_entry. Add a new alternative for data_name - general, which allows any sort of data, with names generated elsewhere. Add the pred_proc_id as a field of c_procedure. compiler/optimize.m: compiler/llds_common.m: compiler/optimize.m: Handle new field in c_procedure. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Generate layout information after code has been generated, and output stack layouts. compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Document new stack_layout module. compiler/stack_layout.m: New file - generates the LLDS code that defines global constants to hold the stack_layout structures. compiler/options.m: compiler/handle_options.m: Add --stack-layout option which outputs stack layouts. Make accurate gc imply stack_layout. |

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. NEWS compiler/notes/todo.html doc/reference_manual.texi Document `:- use_module'. tests/valid/intermod_lambda_test.m tests/valid/intermod_lambda_test2.m tests/invalid/errors.m tests/invalid/errors2.m Test cases. |

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

Fix things so that we can now generate unboxed floats as
Estimated hours taken: 24 Fix things so that we can now generate unboxed floats as static constants. We do this by generating static constants as structs rather than as arrays. Reorganize the way llds_out.m handles types to simplify the code and eliminate unnecessary casts in the generated C code. llds.m, vn_type.m: Change `llds_type' to be more precise, by adding two new alternatives (data_ptr and code_ptr) to the categories, and modifying the various type predicates accordingly. llds.m, base_type_info.m, base_type_layout.m, garbage_out.m, llds_common.m, opt_debug.m, unify_gen.m. Remove the "has pointers?" field from the `c_data' and `data_addr' types in llds.m and from the `cell_info' type in llds_common.m, since they're not needed anymore. (Instead llds_out.m uses `llds__rval_type' etc. to figure out whether something has pointers.) base_type_info.m, base_type_layout.m: Fix a bug: the `exported' field in the `c_data' type needs to be set to yes for `Status = abstract_exported' types as well as for `Status = exported' types. exprn_aux.m: If unboxed_float is yes, then floats are now considered constants. llds_out.m: Change `output_rval' and `output_lval' so that they output a value as its natural type, rather than cast to Integer or Word. Add a new predicate `output_rval_as_type(Rval, Type)', and change most of the calls to `output_rval' to instead call `output_rval_as_type' specifying the appropriate type. Similarly add `output_lval_as_word' and change some of the calls to `output_lval' to call `output_lval_as_word' instead. Eliminate `output_rval_as_float', since its functionality has been folded into `output_rval' and `output_rval_as_type'. Delete `output_rval_lval', since it's not needed anymore. Neither is the `args_have_pointers' predicate. Merge the shared code in for handling `c_data' modules and `create' rvals into a new predicate output_const_term_decl; this predicate outputs struct declarations for the generated terms, so we can now output floats in such terms without needing to do type punning in static constants. options.m: `--single-prec-float' is no longer an alias for `--unboxed-float'. Also fix a couple of other parts of the help message. |

* Fix a bug in unify_gen triggered by zoltans fix to a

case for it.
* Fix a couple of small bugs in the testing procedures where
they required you to have . in your path.
mercury/compiler/code_exprn.m,
mercury/compiler/code_info.m:
add the predicate
code_{exprn,info}__materialize_vars_in_rval/5
which generates code to materialize the vars in an rval and
updates the exprn info appropriately.
This predicate was added because it is needed for generating
the sub-unifications where a deconstruction has assignments
into the term (ie field(....) = var; rather than the other
way around).
mercury/compiler/exprn_aux.m:
export exprn_aux__vars_in_rval.
mercury/compiler/follow_vars.m:
fix a singleton variable warning.
mercury/compiler/unify_gen.m:
When generating code to assign into the fields of a term
within a deconstruction, materialize any variables in the
the field expression (into which you are going to assign)
before doing the assignment. Before this fix, the code generator
was emitting code that contained var(M), which with certain
combinations of opt flags was causing an abort in llds_out.

Rename address_const to code_addr_const, and add base_type_info_const
Estimated hours taken: 15 hlds_data: Rename address_const to code_addr_const, and add base_type_info_const as a new alternative in cons_id, and make corresponding changes to cons_tag. Make hlds_type__defn an abstract type. llds: Rename address_const to code_addr_const, and add data_addr_const as a new alternative in rval_const. Change type "label" to have four alternatives, not three: local/2 (for internal labels), c_local (local to a C module), local/1 (local a Mercury module but not necessarily to a C module, and exported. llds_out: Keep track of the things declared previously, and don't declare them again unnecessarily. Associate indentation with the following item rather than the previous item (the influence of 244); this results in braces being put in different places than previously, but should be easier to maintain. Handle the new forms of addresses and labels. Refer to c_local labels as STATIC when not using --split-c-files. code_info: Use a presently junk field to store a cell counter, which is used to allocate distinguishing numbers to create'd cells. Previously we used the label counter, which meant that label numbers changed when we optimized away some creates. Handle the new forms of addresses and labels. exprn_aux: Handle the new forms of addresses and labels. We are now more precise in figuring out what label address forms will be considered constants by the C compilers. others: Changes to handle the new forms of addresses and labels, and/or to access hlds_type__defn as an abstract type. |

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

Rename branch_delay_slot to have_delay_slot.
Estimated hours taken: 8 options.m: Rename branch_delay_slot to have_delay_slot. Set optimize_delay_slot in -O2 only if have_delay_slot was set earlier. This is possible now because the default optimization level is now set in mc. mercury_compile: Change verbose output a bit to be more consistent. dead_proc_elim: Export the predicates that will eventually be needed by inlining.m. inlining.m: Use the information about the number of times each procedure is called to inline local nonrecursive procedures that are called exactly once. EXCEPT that this is turned off at the moment, since the inlining of parse_dcg_goal_2 in prog_io, which this change enables, causes the compiler to emit incorrect code. prog_io: Moved the data type definitions to prog_data. (Even though prog_io.m is ten times the size of prog_data.m, the sizes of the .c files are not too dissimilar.) |

Estimated hours taken: 2 Do some more work on improving floating-point performance: emit boxed floating point constants as static ground terms. options.m: Add new option --unboxed-float. exprn_aux.m Add --unboxed-float to the `exprn_opts' that affect whether or not things can be static constants. If --unboxed-float is not set, and --static-ground-terms is, then consider float_consts to be constant. code_exprn.m, lookup_switch.m: Trivial changes to handle new arity of exprn_opts type. llds.m: If --unboxed-float is not set, and --static-ground-terms is, then output `static const Float mercury_float_const_...' declarations for float_consts. |

Fix a second occurrence of the problem with casts in the initializers
Estimated hours taken: 1
(plus lots of time debugging the problem via email)
Fix a second occurrence of the problem with casts in the initializers
of static constants causing gcc to generate non-position-independent code.
This prevented the use of gcc on AIX RS/6000 systems, and was also
preventing us from creating genuinely shared shared libraries on Solaris.
compiler/llds.m:
Emit static constants as `const Word * mercury_const_n [] = { ... }'
rather than `const Word mercury_const_n [] = { ... }' not just
in the case when the constant contains code addresses, but also
when it contains data addresses, including addresses of other
static constants and/or string literals.
exprn_aux.m:
Add nondet (in, out) modes to the ..._contain_rval predicates,
which nondeterministically generate all the contained rvals,
and export args_contain_rval. For use by llds.m as required
by the above change.

Made a start towards getting better code generated for nested creates
Estimated hours taken: 4 code_exprn: Made a start towards getting better code generated for nested creates and towards getting rid of useless "shuffle lval" instructions. Also, some minor cleanup. exprn_aux: Add some auxiliary predicates for the new code_exprn. delay_info: Remove a useless import of hlds, which is now empty. |

Estimated hours taken: 2 exprn_aux: Both code_exprn and lookup_switch had code to check whether an expression is constant or not. Some of the code is different due to different handling of variables in rvals, but exprn_aux now contains the common subset. This common subset used to treat some address constants incorrectly, simply by not considering them; they are now considered and treated properly. code_exprn, lookup_switch, exprn_aux: Remove redundant option lookups in the process of checking for constant expressions. code_exprn: Other minor cleanups, including removal of a block of code Tom says was "deep magic" (but which turns out to be unnecessary). code_info: Removed some dead code. options: Added real support for --opt-level, in the form of a table of default values of options for each optimization level between 0 and 5 (both inclusive). This needs a new form of documentation. How do you do tables in texinfo? |

A new pass to remove unnecessary assignment unifications.
excess: A new pass to remove unnecessary assignment unifications. mercury_compile: Call the new excess assignment module. options: Add a new option, excess_assign, to control the new optimization. Add another, num-real-regs, to specify how many of r1, r2 etc are actually real registers. The default is now set to 5 for kryten; later it should be supplied by the mc script, with a value determined at configuration time. tag_switch: Use num-real-regs to figure out whether it is likely to be worthwhile to eliminate the common subexpression of taking the primary tag of a variable. Also fix an old performance bug: the test for when a jump table is worthwhile was reversed. value_number, vn_block: Do value numbering on extended basic blocks, not basic blocks. vn_debug: Modify an information message. labelopt: Clean up an export an internal predicate for value numbering. Replace bintree_set with set. middle_rec: Prepare for the generalization of middle recursion optimization to include predicates with an if-then-else structure. cse_detection: Fix a bug: when hoisting a common desconstruction X = f(Yi), create new variables for the Yi. This avoids problems with any of the Yis appearing in other branches of the code. goal_util: Add a new predicate for use by cse_detection. common: Fix a bug: recompute instmap deltas, since they may be affected by the optimization of common structures. code_info: Make an error message more explicit. det_analysis: Restrict import list to the needed modules. *.m: Import assoc_list. |

Export a pred for use by llds.m.
exprn_aux.m: Export a pred for use by llds.m. llds.m: Write out static constants with type `const Word * []' rather than `const Word []' if they contain code addresses, since for shared libraries on Irix 5, gcc does not support casting code addresses to words in the initializers for static constants |

A bunch of bug fixes!
code_info.m: Bug fix: change generate_pre_commit and generate_commit so that the values which need to be saved and restored are always pushed onto the det stack, even in nondet predicates. The reason is that if the committed goal fails, curfr is not valid, so we can't restore the fields from the nondet stack. (This way may well be more efficient anyway.) disj_gen.m, ite_gen.m: Handle the case when the current failure continuation is unknown on entry to the disjunction or nondet if-then-else by creating a new frame on the nondet stack. (Originally we just aborted in this case; recently we "fixed" this, but it turned out that the fix was not correct, for the same reason as the above-mentioned bug in pre_commit/commit. llds.m: Add succfr/1 and prevfr/1 to the rval type in llds.m, since they were needed by the above bug fixes. (This caused dozens of changes elsewhere to handle the new types.) Also fix a trivial bug that I recently introduced which prevented --mod-comments from working. live_vars.m: Fix bug in allocation of stack slots for nondet code. (This is the one that caused the bug that ksiew and I found when writing a calculator program.) peephole.m: Disable the succeed_discard() optimization, since it causes incorrect code to be generated. It was replacing modframe(do_fail) ... succeed() with modframe(do_fail) ... succeed_discard() even when there were instructions such as mkframe() in between. modes.m, hlds.m: When modechecking switches, record the binding of the switch variable as we enter each case, so that we get the determinism analysis right. mercury_compile.pp: Make sure that we set the exit status to be non-zero if we find any errors. typecheck.m, modes.m, undef_types.m, undef_modes.m: Don't invoke type-checking if there are undefined types. Don't invoke mode-checking if there are undefined modes. This avoids the problem of the compiler aborting with an internal error if there are undefined types/modes. |

label_opt was erroneously optimizing away code which was not dead,
opt_util.m, exprn_aux.m: label_opt was erroneously optimizing away code which was not dead, because it was not considering references to the code via address_consts in rvals. So I've changed opt_util__instr_labels to return those labels too, and added some new utility preds in exprn_aux to deal with that. exprn_aux.m: Remove expr_aux__expr_is_constant/1, since it was not used (and it was broken anyway). |
