e35a09542e Print two kinds of ambiguities only if asked for.
trace/mercury_trace_cmd_developer.c:
trace/mercury_trace_tables.[ch]:
    Add two options to the mdb command "ambiguity".

    Print ambiguities between function and predicate forms of the same
    operation, such as list.length, only if the new option -b, or
    --both-pred-and-func, is given.

    Print ambiguities involving procedures that were created by type
    specialization only if the new option -s, or --typespec is given.
    (The -t option name was already taken.)

    These changes remove from the ambiguity command's output
    (some of) the parts that are not useful when one wants to eliminate
    ambiguities by renaming.

    Clarify a heading.

doc/user_guide.texi:
    Document the above changes.

runtime/mercury_proc_id.h:
    Fix a field name that has become misleading.

    MR_UserProcId_Structs have a field named MR_user_arity.
    In this name, the "MR_user_" part is a prefix shared by the other
    fields in that structure, to indicate that they are part of the id
    of a user-defined procedure, as opposed to a compiler-created
    unify, compare or index procedure. However, the arity it contains
    is what the compiler now calls a pred_form_arity: it does not count
    type_info and typeclass_info arguments added by polymorphism, but
    it *does* count function return values for functions. This is now
    misleading, because in the compiler, a user_arity does *not* count
    function return values for functions.

    Replace this field name with MR_user_pred_form_arity, which tells
    readers that this arity is a pred_form_arity. The presence of the
    "user" part of the name may still cause some confusion, but at least
    that confusion should motivate readers to look up the field name,
    whose comment should clarify things.

    deleting any of the predicates whose names we want to test for ambiguities.

ae4b736fdd Implement warnings for suspicious recursion.
compiler/simplify_goal_call.m:
    If the --warn-suspicious-recursion option is set, and if the warning
    isn't disabled, generate warnings for two different kinds of suspicious
    recursion. They are both related to, but separate from, the warning
    we have long generated for infinite recursion, which occurs when
    the input args of a recursive call are the same as the corresponding
    args in the clause head.

    Both kinds suspicious recursion look at the input args of a recursive call
    that are NOT the same as the corresponding args in the clause head.
    Both require these args to have non-unique modes. (If they have unique
    modes, then the depth of the recursion may be controlled by state outside
    the view of the Mercury compiler, which means that a warning would be
    likely to be misleading.)

    The first kind is when all these args use state variable notation.
    Most of the time, we use state var notation to denote the data structures
    updated by the recursive code; having variables using such notation
    *controlling* the recursion is much less common, and much more likely
    to be unintended. The motivation for the new option was this infinitely
    looping code, which resulted from neglecting to s/[X | Xs]/Xs/ after
    cutting-and-pasting the clause head to the recursive call.

    p([X | Xs], !S) :-
        ...,
        p([X | Xs], !S).

    The other kind of suspicious recursive call we warn about involve
    input arguments where the base names of the input arguments (the part
    before any numeric suffixes) seem be switched between the clause head
    and the recursive call, as here:

    q(As0, Bs0, ...) :-
        ...,
        q(Bs1, As, ...).

compiler/mercury_compile_main.m:
    Disable style warnings when invoked with --make-optimization-interface
    or its transitive variant. Without this, warnings about suspicious
    recursion would get reported in such invocations.

    Move a test from a callee to a caller to allow the callee to be
    less indented.

compiler/options.m:
    Export functionality to mercury_compile_main.m to make the above possible.

library/string.m:
    Add a predicate to convert a string to *reverse* char list directly.

    Note a discrepancy between the documentation and the implementation
    of the old predicate the new one is based on (which converts a string
    to a forward char list).

    Fix inconsistencies between (a) the order in which functions and predicates
    are declared, and (b) the order in which they are defined.

    In most modules, either the order of the declarations or the order
    of the definitions made sense, and I changed the other to match.
    In some modules, neither made sense, so I changed *both* to an order
    that *does* make sense (i.e. it has related predicates together).

    Move one predicate that is needed in two modules from one of them
    to a third module (prim_data.m), since that is the one that defines
    the type for which the predicate is a utility predicate.

    In some places, put dividers between groups of related
    functions/predicates, to make the groups themselves more visible.

    In some places, fix comments or programming style.

2d0bfc0674 The algorithm that decides whether the order independent state update
Estimated hours taken: 120
Branches: main

The algorithm that decides whether the order independent state update
transformation is applicable in a given module needs access to the list
of oisu pragmas in that module, and to information about the types
of variables in the procedures named in those pragmas. This diff
puts this information in Deep.procrep files, to make them available
to the autoparallelization feedback program, to which that algorithm
will later be added.

Compilers that have this diff will generate Deep.procrep files in a new,
slightly different format, but the deep profiler will be able to read
Deep.procrep files not just in the new format, but in the old format as well.

runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
	Add to module layout structures the fields holding the new information
	we want to put into Deep.procrep files. This means three things:

	- a bytecode array in module layout structures encoding the list
	  of oisu pragmas in the module;
	- additions to the bytecode arrays in procedure layout structures
	  mapping the procedure's variables to their types; and
	- a bytecode array containing the encoded versions of those types
	  themselves in the module layout structure. This allows us to
	  represent each type used in the module just once.

	Since there is now information in module layout structures that
	is needed only for deep profiling, as well as information that is
	needed only for debugging, the old arrangement that split a module's
	information between two structures, MR_ModuleLayout (debug specific
	info) and MR_ModuleCommonLayout (info used by both debugging and
	profiling), is no longer approriate. We could add a third structure
	containing profiling-specific info, but it is simpler to move
	all the info into just one structure, some of whose fields
	may not be used. This wastes only a few words of memory per module,
	but allows the runtime system to avoid unnecessary indirections.

runtime/mercury_types.h:
	Remove the type synonym for the deleted type.

runtime/mercury_grade.h:
	The change in mercury_stack_layout.h destroys binary compatibility
	with previous versions of Mercury for debug and deep profiling grades,
	so bump their grade-component-specific version numbers.

runtime/mercury_deep_profiling.c:
	Write out the information in the new fields in module layout
	structures, if they are filled in.

	Since this changes the format of the Deep.procrep file, bump
	its version number.

runtime/mercury_deep_profiling.h:
runtime/mercury_stack_layout.c:
	Conform to the change to mercury_stack_layout.h.

mdbcomp/program_representation.m:
	Add to module representations information about the oisu pragmas
	defined in that module, and the type table of the module.
	Optionally add to procedure representations a map mapping
	the variables of the procedure to their types.

	Rename the old var_table type to be the var_name_table type,
	since it contains just names. Make the var to type map separate,
	since it will be there only for selected procedures.

	Modify the predicates reading in module and procedure representations
	to allow them to read in the new representation, while still accepting
	the old one. Use the version number in the Deep.procrep file to decide
	which format to expect.

mdbcomp/rtti_access.m:
	Add functions to encode the data representations that this module
	also decodes.

	Conform to the changes above.

mdbcomp/feedback.automatic_parallelism.m:
	Conform the changes above.

mdbcomp/prim_data.m:
	Fix layout.

compiler/layout.m:
	Update the compiler's representation of layout structures
	to conform to the change to runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h.

compiler/layout_out.m:
	Output the new parts of module layout structures.

compiler/opt_debug.m:
	Allow the debugging of code referring to the new parts of
	module layout structures.

compiler/llds_out_file.m:
	Conform to the move to a single module layout structure.

compiler/prog_rep_tables.m:
	This new module provided mechanisms for building the string table
	and the type table components of module layouts. The string table
	part is old (it is moved here from stack_layout.m); the type table
	part is new.

	Putting this code in a module of its own allows us to remove
	a circular dependency between prog_rep.m and stack_layout.m;
	instead, both now just depend on prog_rep_tables.m.

compiler/ll_backend.m:
	Add the new module.

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

compiler/prog_rep.m:
	When generating the representation of a module for deep profiling,
	include the information needed by the order independent state update
	analysis: the list of oisu pragmas in the module, if any, and
	information about the types of variables in selected procedures.

	To avoid having these additions increasing the size of the bytecode
	representation too much, convert some fixed 32 bit numbers in the
	bytecode to use variable sized numbers, which will usually be 8 or 16
	bits.

	Do not use predicates from bytecode_gen.m to encode numbers,
	since there is nothing keeping these in sync with the code that
	reads them in mdbcomp/program_representation.m. Instead, use
	new predicates in program_representation.m itself.

compiler/stack_layout.m:
	Generate the new parts of module layouts.

	Remove the code moved to prog_rep_tables.m.

compiler/continuation_info.m:
compiler/proc_gen.m:
	Make some more information available to stack_layout.m.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Fix some formatting.

compiler/introduce_parallelism.m:
	Conform to the renaming of the var_table type.

compiler/follow_code.m:
	Fix the bug that used to cause the failure of the
	hard_coded/mode_check_clauses test case in deep profiling grades.

deep_profiler/program_representation_utils.m:
	Output the new parts of module and procedure representations,
	to allow the correctness of this change to be tested.

deep_profiler/mdprof_create_feedback.m:
	If we cannot read the Deep.procrep file, print a single error message
	and exit, instead of continuing with an analysis that will generate
	a whole bunch of error messages, one for each attempt to access
	a procedure's representation.

deep_profiler/mdprof_procrep.m:
	Give this program an option that specifies what file it is to
	look at; do not hardwire in "Deep.procrep" in the current directory.

deep_profiler/report.m:
	Add a report type that just prints the representation of a module.
	It returns the same information as mdprof_procrep, but from within
	the deep profiler, which can be more convenient.

deep_profiler/create_report.m:
deep_profiler/display_report.m:
	Respectively create and display the new report type.

deep_profiler/query.m:
	Recognize a query asking for the new report type.

8e3ead5903 Reduce the size of the string tables in debuggable executables by encoding
Estimated hours taken: 6
Branches: main

Reduce the size of the string tables in debuggable executables by encoding
variable names that fit a few standard templates, the most important of which
is STATE_VARIABLE_name_number.

The effect on the compiler is to reduce the string table size from about
3.1Mb to about 2.1Mb, which is about a 30% reduction.

compiler/stack_layout.m:
	Look for the names fitting the patterns in variable names, and encode
	them.

runtime/mercury_stack_layout.[ch]:
	Add a function for looking up variable names, decoding them if needed.

	Since goal paths cannot fit any of the patterns, access them without
	using that function.

mdbcomp/rtti_access.m:
	Use the new function to retrieve variable names.

runtime/mercury_grade.h:
	Increment the debugging compatibility version number, since debuggable
	executables in which some modules were produced by a compiler without
	this diff and some were produced by a compiler with this diff won't
	work together.

7e26b55e74 Implement a new form of memory profiling, which tells the user what memory
Branches: main

Implement a new form of memory profiling, which tells the user what memory
is being retained during a program run.  This is done by allocating an extra
word before each cell, which is used to "attribute" the cell to an
allocation site.  The attribution, or "allocation id", is an address to an
MR_AllocSiteInfo structure generated by the Mercury compiler, giving the
procedure, filename and line number of the allocation, and the type
constructor and arity of the cell that it allocates.

The user must manually instrument the program with calls to
`benchmarking.report_memory_attribution', which forces a GC and summarises
the live objects on the heap using the attributions.  The mprof tool is
extended with a new mode to parse and present that data.

Objects which are unattributed (e.g. by hand-written C code which hasn't
been updated) are still accounted for, but show up in profiles as "unknown".

Currently this profiling mode only works in conjunction with the Boehm
garbage collector, though in principle it can work with any memory allocator
for which we can access a list of the live objects.  Since term size
profiling relies on the same technique of using an extra word per memory
cell, the two profiling modes are incompatible.

The output from `mprof -s' looks like this:

------ [1] some label ------
   cells            words         cumul  procedure / type (location)

a2cd0da5b3 The existing representation of goal_paths is suboptimal for several reasons.
Estimated hours taken: 80
Branches: main

The existing representation of goal_paths is suboptimal for several reasons.

- Sometimes we need forward goal paths (e.g. to look up goals), and sometimes
  we need reverse goal paths (e.g. when computing goal paths in the first
  place). We had two types for them, but

  - their names, goal_path and goal_path_consable, were not expressive, and
  - we could store only one of them in goal_infos.

- Testing whether goal A is a subgoal of goal B is quite error-prone using
  either form of goal paths.

- Using a goal path as a key in a map, which several compiler passes want to
  do, requires lots of expensive comparisons.

This diff replaces most uses of goal paths with goal ids. A goal id is an
integer, so it can be used as a key in faster maps, or even in arrays.
Every goal in the body of a procedure gets its id allocated in a depth first
search. Since we process each goal before we dive into is descendants,
the goal representing the whole body of a procedure always gets goal id 0.
The depth first traversal also builds up a map (the containing goal map)
that tells us the parent goal of ever subgoal, with the obvious exception
of the root goal itself. From the containing goal map, one can compute
both reverse and forward goal paths. It can also serve as the basis of an
efficient test of whether the goal identified by goal id A is an ancestor
of another goal identified by goal id B. We don't yet use this test,
but I expect we will in the future.

mdbcomp/program_representation.m:
	Add the goal_id type.

	Replace the existing goal_path and goal_path_consable types
	with two new types, forward_goal_path and reverse_goal_path.
	Since these now have wrappers around the list of goal path steps
	that identify each kind of goal path, it is now ok to expose their
	representations. This makes several compiler passes easier to code.

	Update the set of operations on goal paths to work on the new data
	structures.

	Add a couple of step types to represent lambdas and try goals.
	Their omission prior to this would have been a bug for constraint-based
	mode analysis, or any other compiler pass prior to the expansion out
	of lambda and try goals that wanted to use goal paths to identify
	subgoals.

	Conform to the changes in goal path representation.

compiler/hlds_goal:
	Replace the goal_path field with a goal_id field in the goal_info,
	indicating that from now on, this should be used to identify goals.

	Keep a reverse_goal_path field in the goal_info for use by RBMM and
	CTGC. Those analyses were too hard to convert to using goal_ids,
	especially since RBMM uses goal_paths to identify goals in multi-pass
	algorithms that should be one-pass and should not NEED to identify
	any goals for later processing.

compiler/goal_path:
	Add predicates to fill in goal_ids, and update the predicates
	filling in the now deprecated reverse goal path fields.

	Add the operations needed by the rest of the compiler
	on goal ids and containing goal maps.

	Remove the option to set goal paths using "mode equivalent steps".
	Constraint based mode analysis now uses goal ids, and can now
	do its own equivalent optimization quite simply.

	Move the goal_path module from the check_hlds package to the hlds
	package.

compiler/*.m:
	Conform to the changes in goal path representation.

	Most modules now use goal_ids to identify goals, and use a containing
	goal map to convert the goal ids to goal paths when needed.
	However, the ctgc and rbmm modules still use (reverse) goal paths.

Branches: main

Add support for the `csharp' grade to `mmc --make', and make it possible to
install the `csharp' grade with `mmake install'.

Also some miscellaneous fixes.


configure.in:
        Require a recent enough bootstrap compiler that recognises C# as a
        language for `pragma foreign_type'.

Mmakefile:
        Use `mmc --make' to install the standard library in csharp grade.

aclocal.m4:
        Search for the Mono C# compiler `gmcs', which is required for generics
        at this time.  Prefer it over the DotGNU C# compiler, which I have not
        tested.

        Search for `mono'.  If found, it will be used in shell scripts to
        launch executables generated via the csharp backend.

        Remove "MS_" prefixes on the variables MS_CSC and MS_ILASM, which are
        not Microsoft-specific.  More importantly, it should be less likely to
        make the mistake of adding an extra underscore to CSCFLAGS and
        ILASMFLAGS.

README.DotNet:
        Conform to variable renamings.

compiler/compile_target_code.m:
        Add new linked target types `csharp_executable', `java_launcher' and
        `erlang_launcher', instead of overloading `executable'.

        Link with `mer_std.dll' and other libraries when generating C#
        executables.  There is no `mer_rt.dll'.

        Pass "/debug" to the C# compiler if `--target-debug' is set.

        Create a shell script to launch the executable if necessary.

        Delete an unused predicate `standard_library_directory_option'.

compiler/file_names.m:
        `.cs' and `.cs_date' are grade-dependent.

compiler/handle_options.m:
        Force `.exe' as the executable file extension in csharp grades.

        Make the `erlang' grade component imply the same options as MLDS
        grades.

compiler/make.m:
        Classify executable target types based on the compilation target.

compiler/make.module_target.m:
        Handle `mmc --grade csharp --make <target>.dll'.

compiler/make.program_target.m:
        Install library DLLs in csharp grades.

        Make clean targets remove files for csharp grades.

        Conform to changes.

compiler/make.util.m:
        Add a stub foreign type.

        Conform to changes.

compiler/module_cmds.m:
        Factor out code to generate the shell scripts which launch programs
        compiled in Java, Erlang and C# grades.

compiler/options.m:
        Add `cli_interpreter' option to remember the name of the program which
        should be used to run CLI (.NET) programs.

        Add C#-related options to the help message.

compiler/options_file.m:
        Remove "MS_" prefixes on MS_ILASM_FLAGS and MS_CSC_FLAGS, and remove
        the extra underscore before "FLAGS".  In all uses of the variables,
        they were spelt without the extra underscore.

doc/user_guide.texi:
        Document options and file types related to the C# grade.

library/Mmakefile:
        Pass `mercury_dotnet.cs' to the C# compiler when building the standard
        library.  Suppress some warnings.

        Allow stubs in this directory for csharp grade.

        Conform to variable renamings.

library/builtin.m:
        Uncomment foreign language pragmas for C#.

        Handle null values in C# implementation of `deep_copy'.

library/private_builtin.m:
library/string.m:

        Although the latter is allowed according to the documentation, it is

        Handle negative index in string.set_char.

library/rtti_implementation.m:
        Uncomment foreign language pragmas for C#.

Branches: main

Get the java.ssdebug grade installing and compiling hello world.
Note that currently the jars for the java.ssdebug grade are installed in the
same location as the non-ssdebug jars.  That's not a problem for now,
because the standard library currently has the ssdebug transformations
turned off when it's compiled in the ssdebug grade, so the java.ssdebug
jars are the same as the java jars.  Changing it so that the java.ssdebug
jars are installed in a different location requires getting mmc to
adjust the classpath depending on the grade, which doesn't seem worth
it at this stage.

Also note that the interface files for the ssdb, browser and mdbcomp

complains that it cannot find files like ssdb.m when compiling

Change the representation of goal paths to use cords of steps instead of lists
of steps. With the list of steps representation, we always had to worry about

disappears.

2dc982cfe4 Make a representation of the program available to the deep profiler.
Estimated hours taken: 50
Branches: main

Make a representation of the program available to the deep profiler. We do
this by letting the user request, via the option "--deep-procrep-file"
in MERCURY_OPTIONS, that when the Deep.data file is written, a Deep.procrep
file should be written alongside it.

The intended use of this information is the discovery of profitable
parallelism. When a conjunction contains two expensive calls, e.g. p(...) and
q(...) connected by some shared variables, the potential gain from executing
them in parallel is limited by how early p produces those variables and how
late q consumes them, and knowing this requires access to the code of p and q.

Since the debugger and the deep profiler both need access to program
representations, put the relevant data structures and the operations on them
in mdbcomp. The data structures are significantly expanded, since the deep
profiler deals with the whole program, while the debugger was interested only
in one procedure at a time.

The layout structures have to change as well. In a previous change, I changed
proc layout structures to make room for the procedure representation even in
non-debugging grades, but this isn't enough, since the procedure representation
refers to the module's string table. This diff therefore makes some parts of
the module layout structure, including of course the string table, also
available in non-debugging grades.

configure.in:
	Check whether the installed compiler can process switches on foreign
	enums correctly, since this diff depends on that.

runtime/mercury_stack_layout.[ch]:
runtime/mercury_types.h:
	Add a new structure, MR_ModuleCommonLayout, that holds the part of
	the module layout that is common to deep profiling and debugging.

runtime/mercury_deep_profiling.[ch]:
	The old "deep profiling token" enum type was error prone, since at
	each point in the data file, only a subset was applicable. This diff
	breaks up the this enum into several enums, each consisting of the
	choice applicable at a given point.

	This also allows some of the resulting enums to be used in procrep
	files.

	Rename some enums and functions to avoid ambiguities, and in one case
	to conform to our naming scheme.

	Make write_out_proc_statics take a second argument. This is a FILE *
	that (if not NULL) asks write_out_proc_statics to write the
	representation of the current module to specified stream.

	These module representations go into the middle part of the program
	representation file. Add functions to write out the prologue and
	epilogue of this file.

	Write out procedure representations if this is requested.

	Factor out some code that is now used in more than one place.

runtime/mercury_deep_profiling_hand.h:
	Conform to the changes to mercury_deep_profiling.h.

runtime/mercury_builtin_types.c:
	Pass the extra argument in the argument lists of invocations of
	write_out_proc_statics.

runtime/mercury_trace_base.[ch]:
	Conform to the name change from proc_rep to proc_defn_rep in mdbcomp.

runtime/mercury_grade.h:
	Due to the change to layout structures, increment the binary
	compatibility version numbers for both debug and deep profiling grades.

runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
	Provide two new MERCURY_OPTION options. The first --deep-procrep-file,
	allows the user to ask for the program representation to be generated.
	The second, --deep-random-write, allows tools/bootcheck to request that
	only a fraction of all program invocations should generate any deep
	profiling output.

	The first option will be documented once it is tested much more fully.
	The second option is deliberately not documented.

	Update the type of the variable that holds the address of the
	(mkinit-generated) write_out_proc_statics function to accept the second
	argument.

util/mkinit.c:
	Pass the extra argument in the argument list of write_out_proc_statics.

mdbcomp/program_representation.m:
	Extend the existing data structures for representing a procedure body
	to represent a procedure (complete with name), a module and a program.
	The name is implemented as string_proc_label, a form of proc_label that
	can be written out to files. This replaces the old proc_id type the
	deep profiler.

	Extend the representation of switches to record the identity of the
	variable being switched on, and the cons_ids of the arms. Without the
	former, we cannot be sure when a variable is first used, and the latter
	is needed for meaningful prettyprinting of procedure bodies.

	Add code for reading in files of bytecodes, and for making sense of the
	bytecodes themselves. (It is this code that uses foreign enums.)

mdbcomp/prim_data.m:
	Note the relationship of proc_label with string_proc_label.

mdbcomp/rtti_access.m:
	Add the access operations needed to find module string tables with the
	new organization of layout structures.

	Provide operations on bytecodes and string tables generally.

trace/mercury_trace_cmd_browsing.c:
	Conform to the change to mdbcomp/program_representation.m.

compiler/layout.m:
	Add support for a MR_ModuleCommonLayout.

	Rename some function symbols to avoid ambiguities.

compiler/layout_out.m:
	Handle the new structure.

compiler/stack_layout.m:
	Generate the new structure and the procedure representation bytecode
	in deep profiling grades.

compiler/llds_out.m:
	Generate the code required to write out the prologue and epilogue
	of program representation files.

	Pass the extra argument in the argument lists of invocations of
	write_out_proc_statics that tells those invocations to write out
	the module representations between the prologue and the epilogue.

compiler/prog_rep.m:
	When generating bytecodes, include the new information for switches.

compiler/continuation_info.m:
	Replace a bool with a more expressive type.

compiler/proc_rep.m:
	Conform to the change to continuation_info.m.

compiler/opt_debug.m:
	Conform to the change to layout.m.

deep_profiler/mdprof_procrep.m:
	A new test program to test the reading of program representations.

deep_profiler/DEEP_FLAGS.in:
deep_profiler/Mmakefile:
	Copy the contents of the mdbcomp module to this directory on demand,
	instead of linking to it. This is necessary now that the deep profiler
	depends directly on mdbcomp even if it is compiled in a non-debugging
	grade.

	The arrangements for doing this were copied from the slice directory,
	which has long done the same.

	Avoid a duplicate include of Mmake.deep.params.

	Add the new test program to the list of programs in this directory.

Mmakefile:
	Go through deep_profiler/Mmakefile when deciding whether to do "mmake
	depend" in the deep_profiler directory. The old actions won't work
	correctly now that we need to copy some files from mdbcomp before we
	can run "mmake depend".

deep_profiler/profile.m:
	Remove the code that was moved (in cleaned-up form) to mdbcomp.

deep_profiler/dump.m:
deep_profiler/profile.m:
	Conform to the changes above.

browser/declarative_execution.m:
browser/declarative_tree.m:
	Conform to the changes in mdbcomp.

doc/user_guide.texi:
	Add commented out documentation of the two new options.

slice/Mmakefile:
	Fix formatting, and a bug.

library/exception.m:
library/par_builtin.m:
library/thread.m:
library/thread.semaphore.m:
	Update all the handwritten modules to pass the extra argument now
	required by write_out_proc_statics.

tests/debugger/declarative/dependency.exp:
	Conform to the change from proc_rep to proc_defn_rep.

tools/bootcheck:
	Write out deep profiling data only from every 25th invocation, since
	otherwise the time for a bootcheck takes six times as long in deep
	profiling grades than in asm_fast.gc.

	However, do test the ability to write out program representations.

	Use the mkinit from the workspace, not the installed one.

	Don't disable line wrapping.

455e1eea75 The runtime had two different conventions for naming types.
Estimated hours taken: 2
Branches: main

The runtime had two different conventions for naming types. One convention,
used mostly in the debugger-related modules, added underscores between
capitalized words; example: MR_Label_Layout. The other convention, used
in most modules, used capitalized words without underscores (e.g. MR_TypeInfo).

This diff standardizes on the second convention. It has no algorithmic changes,
only renames of types.

74ce85d476 Provide a mechanism for collecting statistics about tabling operations,
Estimated hours taken: 60
Branches: main

Provide a mechanism for collecting statistics about tabling operations,
and provide a much more convenient mechanism for resetting tables.

Since it would too complex to do this while preserving the capability
of setting --tabling-via-extra-args to no, eliminate that capability
and the option. That option was useful only for measurements of the
performance boost from setting --tabling-via-extra-args to yes in any case,
so users lose no functionality.

Previously, the only way to debug the low level details of the tabling
mechanism was to build a runtime with a specific C macro (MR_TABLE_DEBUG)
and link with that runtime; this was cumbersome. Change that so that
every one of the debuggable tabling macros has a bool argument that says
whether debugging is enabled or not. The compiler can then set this to
MR_TRUE if the new option --table-debug is given, and to MR_FALSE otherwise.
If set to MR_FALSE, the C compiler should optimize away the debug code,
with zero impact on program size or speed.

Since these changes to macros require nontrivial bootstrapping, which we don't
want to do unnecessarily, modify the interface of the tabling macros as
required to support size limits on tables. This diff also implements the
parsing of size limit specifications on tables, but does not implement them
yet; that is for a future change.

To make the syntax simpler, this diff deletes the free-standing fast_loose_memo
pragma. The same functionality is now available with a fast_loose annotation
on an ordinary memo pragma.

Make a bunch of changes to improve readability and maintainability
in the process. These mostly take the form of renaming ambiguous and/or
not sufficiently expressive function symbols.

runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling.h:
	Move the description of structure of tables from mercury_stack_layout.h
	to mercury_tabling.h, since we now need it for statistics even if
	execution tracing is not enabled.

	Modify those data structures to have room for the statistics.

	Don't distinguish "strict", "fast_loose" and "specified" memoing
	as separate eval methods; treat them as just different kinds
	of the same eval method: "memo".

	Remove underscores from the names of some types that the style guide
	says shouldn't be there.

runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_macros.h:
	Modify the approach we use for macros that implement the predicates
	of library/table_builtin.m. Instead of selecting between debug and
	nondebug based on whether MR_TABLE_DEBUG is defined or not, add
	an explicit argument controlling this to each debuggable macro.
	The advantage of the new arrangement is that it scales. Another
	argument controls whether we are computing statistics (and if yes,
	where do we put it), and a third argument controls whether we maintain
	back links in the tries and hash tables (this last argument is present
	but is ignored for now).

	Since the values of the arguments will be known when the .c files
	containing calls to these macros are compiled, we pay the space and
	time cost of debugging, statistics gathering and the maintenance of
	back links if and only we need the revelant functionality.

	Provide macros for limited backward compatibility with the old set
	of macros; these allow workspaces created by old compilers to work
	with the new macros in the runtime. The old macros followed the
	naming scheme MR_table_*, the new ones are named MR_tbl_*.

runtime/mercury_table_int_fix_index_body.h:
runtime/mercury_table_int_start_index_body.h:
runtime/mercury_table_type_body.h:
	New files containing parts of the old mercury_tabling.c. Each of these
	files contains the body of the functions that used to be in
	mercury_tabling.c. The new mercury_tabling.c #includes each of these
	files more than once, to provide more than one variant of the old
	function. These variants differ in aspects such as whether debugging
	is enabled or statistics is being collected. Each variant therefore
	incurs only the time costs it needs to. (We pay the space cost of
	having all these variants all the time of course, but this cost
	is negligible.)

runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_defs.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_nodefs.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling_stats_undefs.h:
	New files that serve as wrappers around the newly #included files,
	controlling how they handle statistics.

runtime/mercury_tabling.c:
	Delete functions now in the new files, and #include them instead.
	Delete the data structures that used to contain summary statistics;
	the new approach keeps statistics in compiler-generated,
	procedure-specific data structures.

runtime/mercury_trace_base.c:
	Use the new versions of the tabling macros to access the I/O table.

	in mercury_tabling.h.

	Use the updated versions of the macros in
	runtime/mercury_tabling_preds.h.

compiler/prog_item.m:
	Change representation of tabling pragmas to allow room for the new
	attributes.

	Allow an item to be marked as being generated by the compiler
	as a result of a pragma memo attribute. We use this for the reset
	and statistics predicates.

compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Write out the new attributes of the tabling pragma.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Change the cons_id that used to refer to a procedure's call table root
	to refer to the entirety of the new data structure now containing it.
	The compiler now needs a way to refer to the other components of this
	new data structure, since it contains the statistics.

	As in the runtime, don't distinguish "strict", "fast_loose" and
	"specified" memoing as separate eval methods; treat them as just
	different kinds of the same eval method: "memo".

	Rename some of the uses of the function symbols "c", "java", "il".

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add an extra field in proc_infos for storing any tabling attributes.

	Change the existing proc_info field that records information about
	the kinds of arguments of tabled procedures to record the information
	needed by the debugger too. This was needed to allow us to shift all
	the RTTI for procedure-specific tables (as opposed to the RTTI for
	the global I/O table) from mercury_stack_layout.h to mercury_tabling.h
	without duplicating the data (which would be a maintenance problem).

	Reformat some comments to make them easier to read.

compiler/layout.m:
compiler/layout_out.m:
	Delete the part of the exec trace information that used to record
	RTTI for tables, since this information is not generated only as
	part of the debugger data structures anymore.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:

	and predicates for manipulating them, for use by both the ml and ll

521967f39f Implement a second version of the subterm dependency tracking algorithm
Estimated hours taken: 20
Branches: main

Implement a second version of the subterm dependency tracking algorithm
that uses the following heuristic to speed things up: If the subterm is being
tracked through an output argument, and there is an input argument with the
same name as the output argumnet, except for a numerical suffix, then the new
algorithm will check if the subterm appears in the same position in the input
argument.  If it does then it will continue tracking the subterm in the input
argument, thus bypassing the subtree rooted at the call.  Since dereferencing a
subterm in a large structure can be expensive, the new algorithm will only try
to bypass calls to procedures it has not tried to bypass before.  The set of
procedures it has tried is reset each time a new explicit subtree or supertree
is generated.

Add a `track' command that behaves in the same way as `mark', except that
it doesn't assert that the node is erroneous or inadmissible.
Add an optional `--accurate' argument which tells the declarative debugger to
use the original tracking algorithm.
We still allow the old algorithm to be used, because there
are situations where the new algorithm could find the wrong call (i.e.
when a subterm appears in the same position in an input argument,
but the subterm in the output argument is actually bound by a descendent call
-- it just happens to be bound to the same value as the input subterm).

	Change the documentation accordingly.

browser/browse.m:

	commands which indicates that the old subterm dependency tracking
	algorithm should be used.
	Pass information about tracked subterms to the declarative debugger.

	make sense.

	be that big.

	Parse the argument to the goto command as type MR_Unsigned instead
	of int, to make it possible to goto an event with a number bigger

fefcf468a0 Use dicing information in the declarative debugger.
Estimated hours taken: 30
Branches: main

Use dicing information in the declarative debugger.  Each label in the program
is assigned a suspicion based on a supplied dice.  A new search mode then
performs divide and query using the total suspicion of a subtree as the
weighting of the subtree.

browser/declarative_analyser.m:
	Parameterize the divide and query search mode by allowing it to work
	with an arbitrary weighting heuristic.

	Support two weighting heuristics: number of events and suspicion.

	Since there is still only one weight field for each suspect,
	if the weighting heuristic changes, then update all the weights of all
	the suspects.

	Return a different reason for asking a divide and query question,
	depending on the weighting heuristic.

 	Some information (specifically how many suspect events remain and
	the estimated number of questions remaining for divide and query)
	returned by the info command depends on the current weighting heuristic
	being the number of events.  If the current weighting heuristic is not
	the number of events then do not show this information.

browser/declarative_debugger.m:
	Pass the trace node store to set_fallback_search_mode so that the
	weights can be recalculated if the search strategy changes.

browser/declarative_edt.m:
	In the mercury_edt typeclass, rename the edt_weight method to
	edt_number_of_events and add a new method edt_subtree_suspicion.

	The weight field of each suspect in the search space can either
	be based on suspicion or number of events.
	Add a field to the search_space type to determine which weighting
	heuristic to use.  Export predicates to get and set the current
	weighting heuristic being used.  If the weighting heuristic
	changes the recalculate the weights of all the suspects.

	When calculating the weight of a suspect use the current weighting
	heuristic.

browser/declarative_execution.m:
	Record a suspicion accumulator at each interface event which
	can be used to calculate the suspicion of a subtree in the EDT.

	Move the label_layout and proc_layout types as well as all utility
	predicates for those types to a new module, mdbcomp.label_layout.

browser/declarative_oracle.m:
browser/declarative_user.m:
browser/debugger_interface.m:
	Import mdbcomp.label_layout.

mdbcomp/label_layout.m:
	This module contains the types label_layout and proc_layout and
	supporting predicates which were in mdb.declarative_execution.
	These types are needed in the mdbcomp.slice_and_dice module.

	Include label_layout.

mdbcomp/slice_and_dice.m:
	Add functions for calculating different suspicion formulas.  The
	intention is to experiment with different formulas in the future.

	Export predicates for reading a dice from the C backend.

	Export a predicate for retrieving the suspicion of a label
	given a dice.  This predicate uses the suspicion_ratio_binary
	formula, since that seems most effective in my (as yet very limited)
	experience.  I will implement better ways to control and customise
	the formula used in the future.

mdbcomp/trace_counts.m:
	Add a function for constructing a path_port given a goal path and
	a trace port.

	If there is an unexpected exception when reading a trace counts
	file then print the unexpected exception.

	Add a predicate to convert trace count file types to a string and
	vica versa.

runtime/mercury_stack_layout.h:
	Fix a typo.

runtime/mercury_trace_base.c:
runtime/mercury_trace_base.h:
	Export a function to look up the trace count slot for a label.
	Use this function when recording trace counts.
	This function will also be used in the declarative debugger backend to
	look up suspicions for labels.

	Add a function to initialise the array which records which ports
	need a goal path to uniquely identifiy the label.
	Initially I used this array elsewhere which is why I exported it.
	I didn't actually end up needing to use it in the final version,
	but I'm still exporting it, since it might be useful in the future.

tests/debugger/declarative/dice.m:
	Test the new search mode.

tests/debugger/declarative/info.exp:

	The weigting heuristic is now printed with the info command.
	Also some information, such as the number of suspect events,
	is no longer printed if the weigthing heuristic is not the number
	of events (since then that information is not available).

trace/mercury_trace_declarative.c:
	Add a function to setup the trace counts array with a suspicion for
	each label.  For efficiency the suspicion is converted from a
	float to an integer between 0 and 100.

	If a flag is set, then increment an accumulator with the
	suspicion of each label executed as the annotated trace is being
	constructed.  Store the value of the accumulator at interface events,
	so that the frontend can efficiently calculate the suspicion of any
	subtree.

	Remove a redundant variable and comment: the goal path is no
	longer passed to the frontend, because the frontend has access to
	the label_layout from which it can get the goal path (the variable and
	comment are artifacts of a previous change).

	When checking if a search mode is valid also check if failing and
	passing trace counts are required for the search mode.
	Allow abbreviations for the search mode arguments.

trace/mercury_trace_declarative.h:
	Export the predicate to set up the suspicions for each label.

trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
	Allow passing and failing test case(s) to be passed
	as arguments to the dd command.

	If passing and failing test case(s) are supplied then record
	suspicions in the annotated trace even if the sdq search mode
	is not specified.  The user could switch to the sdq search mode later
	on.

	Initialise some values which were causing warnings from the C
	compiler.
