Zoltan Somogyi	d00ea69529	Switch from using set(prog_var), which is represented using set_ordlist, ... Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Switch from using set(prog_var), which is represented using set_ordlist, to set_of_progvar, which is represented using tree_bitset, for most sets of variables in the compiler, including the nonlocals sets in goal_infos. This diff yields about a 5% speedup when compiling the training_cars_full.m stress test, but also about a 1% slowdown on tools/speedtest. Both of these are with the current default state in which tree_bitset is compiled with a whole bunch of sanity checks. If these are disabled, we get roughly a 1% speedup on tools/speedtest. I intend to disable those sanity checks after a shakedown period of a week or two in which the updated version of the compiler is installed on our platforms. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Replace almost all occurrences of set(prog_var) with set_of_progvar. The main exceptions are the types supporting rbmm. compiler/set_of_var.m: Add some more predicates and functions that previous existed on sets but not yet on set_of_vars. compiler/*.m: Conform to the change in hlds_goal.m, and make similar changes in set representations. library/bag.m: Add a predicate and function for creating a bag from a sorted list. We already had them for creating a bag from a set, but a set_of_progvar shouldn't have to be converted to a set. library/robdd.m: Fix deviations from our programming style.	2011-08-16 03:26:40 +00:00

Estimated hours taken: 6 Branches: main compiler/*.m: Convert almost all remaining modules in the compiler to use "$module, $pred" instead of "this_file" in error messages. In a few cases, the old error message was misleading, since it contained an incorrect, out-of-date or cut-and-pasted predicate name. tests/invalid/unresolved_overloading.err_exp: Update an expected output containing an updated error message.	2011-05-23 05:08:24 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	e77bcdc4ba	Add two new kinds of scopes to the language: one that requires the goal inside ... Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Add two new kinds of scopes to the language: one that requires the goal inside the scope to have a given determinism, and one that requires it to be complete, i.e. to have arms for all the function symbols in the type of the switched-on variable. The first kind of scope adds the keywords require_det require_semidet require_multi require_nondet require_cc_multi require_cc_nondet require_erroneous require_failure to the language. They are intended to be used like this: test_detism_scope(A, !IO) :- ( A > 10, require_det ( B = A * 2, C = B mod 3 ), C = 1 -> X = C ; X = A ), io.format("test_detism_scope(%d) = %d\n", [i(A), i(X)], !IO). The second kind of scope adds the keyword require_complete_switch to the language. They are intended to be used like this: do_test_switch_scope(A, X) :- require_complete_switch [A] ( ( A = f1, fail ; A = f2, ( X = 1 ; X = 2 ) ; A = f3(B), ( X = 3 ; X = B ; X = B + 1 ) ) ).

Zoltan Somogyi	30aafc69a0	Split up three big compiler modules: llds_out.m, hlds_out.m (5000+ lines each) ... Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Split up three big compiler modules: llds_out.m, hlds_out.m (5000+ lines each) and deep_profiling.m (3000+ lines). Put the predicates in the resulting smaller modules into cohesive groups where possible. A few of the predicates in the original modules were unused; this diff deletes them. There are no algorithmic changes. compiler/llds_out_code_addr.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that outputs code addresses and labels. compiler/llds_out_data.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that outputs lvals, rvals and their components. compiler/llds_out_global.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that generates global static C data structures. compiler/llds_out_instr.m: New module containing the part of llds_out.m that outputs instructions compiler/llds_out_file.m: New module containing the top level part of llds_out.m, which coordinates the generation of a whole C source file. compiler/llds_out_util.m: New module containing the utility parts of llds_out.m. compiler/llds_out.m: Replace everything in this file with just the includes of the submodules that now have all its previous contents. compiler/hlds_llds.m: Move a predicate here from llds_out.m, since it is a utility predicate operating on a type defined here. compiler/rtti_out.m: Move a predicate here from llds_out.m, since it is a predicate generating output from a rtti type. compiler/hlds_out_mode.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out insts and modes. compiler/hlds_out_goal.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out goals. compiler/hlds_out_pred.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out predicates and procedures. compiler/hlds_out_module.m: The part of hlds_out.m that deals with writing out module-wide tables. compiler/hlds_out_util.m: Parts of hlds_out.m that don't fit in anywhere else. compiler/hlds_out.m: Replace everything in this file with just the includes of the submodules that now have all its previous contents. compiler/simplify.m: compiler/hlds_goal.m: Move some insts from simplify.m to hlds_goal.m to allow hlds_out_goal.m to use them also. compiler/coverage_profiling.m: The part of deep_profiling.m that deals with coverage profiling. compiler/deep_profiling.m: Remove the code moved to coverage_profiling.m, and export the utility predicates needed by coverage_profiling.m.

Zoltan Somogyi	4ebe3d0d7e	Stop storing globals in the I/O state, and divide mercury_compile.m ... Estimated hours taken: 60 Branches: main Stop storing globals in the I/O state, and divide mercury_compile.m into smaller, more cohesive modules. (This diff started out as doing only the latter, but it became clear that this was effectively impossible without the former, and the former ended up accounting for the bulk of the changes.) Taking the globals out of the I/O state required figuring out how globals data flowed between pieces of code that were often widely separated. Such flows were invisible when globals could be hidden in the I/O state, but now they are visible, because the affected code now passes around globals structures explicitly. In some cases, the old flow looked buggy, as when one job invoked by mmc --make could affect the globals value of its parent or the globals value passed to the next job. I tried to fix such problems when I saw them. I am not 100% sure I succeeded in every case (I may have replaced old bugs with new ones), but at least now the flow is out in the open, and any bugs should be much easier to track down and fix. In most cases, changes the globals after the initial setup are intended to be in effect only during the invocation of a few calls. This used to be done by remembering the initial values of the to-be-changed options, changing their values in the globals in the I/O state, making the calls, and restoring the old values of the options. We now simply create a new version of the globals structure, pass it to the calls to be affected, and then discard it. In two cases, when discovering reasons why (1) smart recompilation should not be done or (2) item version numbers should not be generated, the record of the discovery needs to survive this discarding. This is why in those cases, we record the discovery by setting a mutable attached to the I/O state. We use pure code (with I/O states) both to read and to write the mutables, so this is no worse semantically than storing the information in the globals structure inside the I/O state. (Also, we were already using such a mutable for recording whether -E could add more information.) In many modules, the globals information had to be threaded through several predicates in the module. In some places, this was made more difficult by predicates being defined by many clauses. In those cases, this diff converts those predicates to using explicit disjunctions. compiler/globals.m: Stop storing the globals structure in the I/O state, and remove the predicates that accessed it there. Move a mutable and its access predicate here from handle_options.m, since here is when the mutables treated the same way are. In a couple of cases, the value of an option is available in a mutable for speed of access from inside performance-critical code. Set the values of those mutables from the option when the processing of option values is finished, not when it is starting, since otherwise the copies of each option could end up inconsistent. Validate the reuse strategy option here, since doing it during ctgc analysis (a) is too late, and (b) would require an update to the globals to be done at an otherwise inconvenient place in the code. Put the reuse strategy into the globals structure. Two fields in the globals structure were unused. One (have_printed_usage) was made redundant when the one predicate that used it itself became unused; the other (source_file_map) was effectively replaced by a mutable some time ago. Delete these fields from the globals. Give the fields of the globals structure a distinguishing prefix. Put the type declarations, predicate declarations and predicate definitions in a consistent order. compiler/source_file_map.m: Record this module's results only in the mutable (it serves as a cache), not in globals structure. Use explicitly passed globals structure for other purposes. compiler/handle_options.m: Rename handle_options as handle_given_options, since it does not process THE options to the program, but the options it is given, and even during the processing of a single module, it can be invoked up the three times in a row, each time being given different options. (It was up to four times in a row before this diff.) Make handle_given_options explicitly return the globals structure it creates. Since it does not take an old global structure as input and globals are not stored in the I/O state, it is now clear that the globals structure it returns is affected only by the default values of the options and the options it processes. Before this diff, in the presence of errors in the options, handle_options *could* return (implicitly, in the I/O state) the globals structure that happened to be in the I/O state when it was invoked. Provide a separate predicate for generating a dummy globals based only on the default values of options. This allows by mercury_compile.m to stop abusing a more general-purpose predicate from handle_options.m, which we no longer export. Remove the mutable and access predicate moved to globals.m. compiler/options.m: Document the fact that two options, smart_recompilation and generate_item_version_numbers, should not be used without seeing whether the functionalities they call for have been disabled. compiler/mercury_compile_front_end.m: compiler/mercury_compile_middle_passes.m: compiler/mercury_compile_llds_back_end.m: compiler/mercury_compile_mlds_back_end.m: compiler/mercury_compile_erl_back_end.m: New modules carved out of the old mercury_compile.m. They each cover exactly the areas suggested by their names. Each of the modules is more cohesive than the old mercury_compile.m. Their code is also arranged in a more logical order, with predicates representing compiler passes being defined in the order of their invocation. Some of these modules export predicates for use by their siblings, showing the dependencies between the groups of passes. compiler/top_level.m: compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Add the new modules. compiler/mark_static_terms.m: Move this module from the ml_backend package to the hlds package, since (a) it does not depend on the MLDS in any way, and (b) it is also needed by a compiler pass (loop invariants) in the middle passes. compiler/hlds.m: compiler/ml_backend.m: compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Reflect mark_static_terms.m's change of package. compiler/passes_aux.m: Move the predicates for dumping out the hLDS here from mercury_compile.m, since the new modules also need them. Look up globals in the HLDS, not the I/O state. compiler/hlds_module.m: Store the prefix (common part) of HLDS dump file names in the HLDS itself, so that the code moved to passes_aux.m can figure out the file name for a HLDS dump without doing system calls. Give the field names of some structures prefixes to avoid ambiguity. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Remove the code moved to the other modules. This module now looks after only option handling (such as deciding whether to generate .int3 files, .int files, .opt files etc), and the compilation passes up to and including the creation of the first version of the HLDS. Everything after that is subcontracted to the new modules. Simplify and make explicit the flow of globals information. When invoking predicates that could disable smart recompilation, check whether they have done so, and if yes, update the globals accordingly. When compiling via gcc, we need to link into the executable the object files of any separate C files we generate for C code foreign_procs, which we cannot translate into gcc's internal structures without becoming a C compiler as well as a Mercury compiler. Instead of adding such files to the accumulating option for extra object files in the globals structure, we return their names using the already existing mechanism we have always used to link the object files of fact tables into the executable. Give several predicates more descriptive names. Put predicates in a more logical order. compiler/make.m: compiler/make.dependencies.m: compiler/make.module_target.m: compiler/make.module_dep_file.m: compiler/make.program_target.m: compiler/make.util.m: Require callers to supply globals structures explicitly, not via the I/O state. Afterward pass them around explicitly, passing modified versions to mercury_compile.m when invoking it with module- and/or task-specific options. Due the extensive use of partial application for higher order code in these modules, passing around the globals structures explicitly is quite tricky here. There may be cases where a predicate uses an old globals structure it got from a closure instead of the updated module- and/or task-specific globals it should be using, or vice versa. However, it is just as likely that, this diff fixes old problems by preventing the implicit flow of updated-only-for-one-invocation globals structures back to the original invoking context. Although I have tried to be careful about this, it is also possible that in some places, the code is using an updated-for-an-invocation globals structure in some but not all of the places where it SHOULD be used. compiler/c_util.m: compiler/compile_target_code.m: compiler/compiler_util.m: compiler/error_util.m: compiler/file_names.m: compiler/file_util.m: compiler/ilasm.m: compiler/ml_optimize.m: compiler/mlds_to_managed.m: compiler/module_cmds.m: compiler/modules.m: compiler/options_file.m: compiler/pd_debug.m: compiler/prog_io.m: compiler/transform_llds.m: compiler/write_deps_file.m: Require callers to supply globals structures explicitly, not via the I/O state. In some cases, the explicit globals structure argument allows a predicate to dispense with the I/O states previously passed to it. In some modules, rename some predicates, types and/or function symbols to avoid ambiguity. compiler/read_modules.m: Require callers to supply globals structures explicitly, not via the I/O state. Record when smart recompilation and the generation of item version numbers should be disabled. compiler/opt_debug.m: compiler/process_util.m: Require callers to supply the needed options explicitly, not via the globals in the I/O state. compiler/analysis.m: compiler/analysis.file.m: compiler/mmc_analysis.m: Make the analysis framework's methods take their global structures as explicit arguments, not as implicit data stored in the I/O state. Stop using `with_type` and `with_inst` declarations unnecessarily. Rename some predicates to avoid ambiguity. compiler/hlds_out.m: compiler/llds_out.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: compiler/mlds_to_c.m: compiler/mlds_to_java.m: compiler/optimize.m: Make these modules stop accessing the globals from the I/O state. Do this by requiring the callers of their top predicates to explicitly supply a globals structure. To compensate for the cost of having to pass around a representation of the options, look up the values of the options of interest just once, to make further access much faster. (In the case of mlds_to_c.m, the code already did much of this, but it still had a few accesses to globals in the I/O state that this diff eliminates.) If the module exports a predicate that needs these pre-looked-up options, then export the type of this data structure and its initialization function. compiler/frameopt.m: Since this module needs only one option from the globals, pass that option instead of the globals. compiler/accumulator.m: compiler/add_clause.m: compiler/closure_analysis.m: compiler/complexity.m: compiler/deforest.m: compiler/delay_construct.m: compiler/elds_to_erlang.m: compiler/exception_analysis.m: compiler/fact_table.m: compiler/intermod.m: compiler/mode_constraints.m: compiler/mode_errors.m: compiler/pd_util.m: compiler/post_term_analysis.m: compiler/recompilation.usage.m: compiler/size_prof.usage.m: compiler/structure_reuse.analysis.m: compiler/structure_reuse.direct.choose_reuse.m: compiler/structure_reuse.direct.m: compiler/structure_sharing.analysis.m: compiler/tabling_analysis.m: compiler/term_constr_errors.m: compiler/term_constr_fixpoint.m: compiler/term_constr_initial.m: compiler/term_constr_main.m: compiler/term_constr_util.m: compiler/trailing_analysis.m: compiler/trans_opt.m: compiler/typecheck_info.m: Look up globals information from the HLDS, not the I/O state.

Zoltan Somogyi	a128f27105	Make the mode analysis pass return errors as a single list of error ... Estimated hours taken: 10 Branches: main Make the mode analysis pass return errors as a single list of error specifications, instead of printing those error specifications out in bits and pieces as it goes along. Since the mode analysis code now does not need the I/O state to print out error messages, don't pass the I/O state around in it. Use trace goals when we need to print progress messages or debugging output. compiler/modes.m: compiler/unique_modes.m: compiler/modecheck_unify.m: compiler/modecheck_call.m: Implement the change described above. Rationalize the argument orders of some predicates. compiler/modes.m: compiler/unify_proc.m: Move the code for modechecking the procedures in the requested unify procedure queue from unify_proc.m to modes.m, since that is where all the related code is. Export a small, abstract part of the representation of the request queue from unify_proc.m to make this possible. compiler/mode_debug.m: Delete the checkpoint predicate's I/O state arguments. compiler/mode_errors.m: Replace predicates that print some error messages with functions that just return their error specifications. Delete some unused predicates. Replace a boolean with a purpose-specific type. Rationalize the argument orders of some predicates. compiler/cse_detection.m: compiler/delay_partial_inst.m: Don't pass around the I/O state, since it is now not needed. Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Conform to the changes above. Amongst other things, this means printing the error specifications returned by mode analysis. compiler/pd_util.m: compiler/try_expand.m: Conform to the changes above. compiler/error_util.m: Fix a typo. tests/invalid/bigtest.err_exp: tests/invalid/constrained_poly_insts.err_exp: Update these expected outputs for the new order of the error messages.

Zoltan Somogyi	d69ba1a1f0	Include the type_ctor in cons_ids for user-defined types. ... Estimated hours taken: 32 Branches: main Include the type_ctor in cons_ids for user-defined types. The intention is two-fold: - It prepares for a future in which we allow more than one function symbol to with the same name to be defined in a module. - It makes the HLDS code more self-contained. In many places, processing construction and deconstruction unifications required knowing which type the cons_id belongs to, but until now, code couldn't know that unless it kept track of the type of the variable unified with the cons_id. With this diff, user-defined cons_ids are represented as cons(SymName, Arity, TypeCtor) The last field is filled in during post-typecheck. After that time, any module qualification in the SymName (which may initially be partial) is redundant, since it is also available in the TypeCtor. In the future, we could make all those SymNames be just unqualified(_) at that time. We could also replace the current maps in HLDS type definitions with full cons_id keys with just name/arity keys (since the module qualifier is a given for any given type definition), we could also support partially qualified cons_ids in source code using a map from name/arity pairs to a list of all the type_ctors that have function symbols with that name/arity, instead of our current practice of inserting all possible partially module qualified version of every cons_id into a single giant table, and we could do the same thing with the field names table. This diff also separates tuples out from user-defined types, since in many respects they are different (they don't have a single type_ctor, for starters). It also separates out character constants, since they were alreay treated specially in most places, though not in some places where they *ought* to have been treated specially. Take the opportunity to give some other cons_ids better names. compiler/prog_data.m: Make the change described above, and document it. Put the implementations of the predicates declared in each part of this module next to the declarations, instead of keeping all the code until the very end (where it was usually far from their declarations). Remove three predicates with identical definitions from inst_match.m, inst_util.m and mode_constraints.m, and put the common definition in prog_data.m. library/term_io.m: Add a new predicate that is basically a reversible version of the existing function espaced_char, since the definition of char_consts needs reversibilty. compiler/post_typecheck.m: For functors of user-defined types, record their type_ctor. For tuples and char constants, record them as such. compiler/builtin_lib_types.m: compiler/parse_tree.m: compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: New module to centralize knowledge about builtin types, specially handled library types, and their function symbols. Previously, the stuff now in this module used to be in several different places, including prog_type.m and stm_expand.m, and some of it was duplicated. mdbcomp/prim_data.m: Add some predicates now needed by builtin_lib_types.m. compiler/builtin_ops.m: Factor out some duplicated code. compiler/add_type.m: Include the relevant type_ctors in the cons_ids generated in type definitions. compiler/hlds_data.m: Document an existing type better. Rename a cons_tag in sync with its corresponding cons_id.

In some places, the handling previously applied to cons/2 (which included tuples and character constants as well as user-defined function symbols) is now applied only to user-defined function symbols or to user-defined function symbols and tuples, as appropriate, with character constants being handled more like the other kinds of constants. In inst_match.m, rename a whole bunch of predicates to avoid ambiguities. In prog_util.m, remove two predicates that did almost nothing yet were far too easy to misuse.	2009-06-11 07:00:38 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	cc42c8fac5	Switch to using error_util to generate error message during the process of ... Estimated hours taken: 40 Branches: main Switch to using error_util to generate error message during the process of converting terms to prog_items. In many predicates, we used to return error messages as a string/term pair, with the string being the error message and a term, which both provided the context and was printed after the message. We now return error indications as lists of error_specs. These include a printout of the relevant term only if this helps users understand the nature or the location of the error. To make the printouts easier to understand we print variable names in them using the applicable varsets. (The old version of the compiler used to print each error term long after it lost track of the right varset, and thus used a dummy varset that yielded error messages referring to _1, _2 etc instead of the variable names used by the programmer.) Sometimes the callers of some parse predicates prepended other strings indicating the context of the error in front of the error string. This diff changes things so that now the caller instead passes a list of format components describing the context to the predicates that construct the error_specs. In some places, simplify the code, e.g. by factoring out common code, and by inlining some auxiliary predicates (we used to need these auxiliary predicates for indexing when we executed the compiler using Prolog, but those days are long past). Mark with XXXs places where I think the error messages or their contexts could be improved, and places where the structure of the code could be improved. compiler/prog_io_util.m: Change the representation of the maybeN types to use error_spec lists. compiler/prog_io.m: compiler/prog_io_dcg.m: compiler/prog_io_goal.m: compiler/prog_io_pragma.m: compiler/prog_io_typeclass.m: compiler/prog_io_util.m: Change the way we generate error messages along the lines described at the top. In several cases, this required adding extra arguments (varsets, context descriptions) to predicates for use in error messages. Some of these predicates were also used in contexts where the caller was interested only in success, and would ignore any error messages. In these cases, add a version of the predicate that does not require the extra arguments, and which is semidet (to allow the caller to avoid a test for ok). compiler/error_util.m: Add a mechanism for changing the case of the next format_component, to allow an error message to be appended to a list of format_components providing the context that generates good-looking output whether or not that context is empty. Replace some bools with purpose-specific types. Make sort_error_specs internal to the module, since outside modules should never need to use it. Use cords instead of reversed lists to simplify some parts of the internal implementation. compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Provide a mechanism to print out terms only if they aren't too big, for use in our error messages. compiler/prog_item.m: Delete the message_list type, and note a future improvement. compiler/prog_out.m: Delete the predicates for printing message_lists. compiler/intermod.m: compiler/modules.m: Change the way we print out error messages along the lines described at the top. compiler/add_clause.m: compiler/field_access.m: compiler/recompilation.check.m: compiler/recompilation.version.m: compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Conform to the changes above by modifying how we generate error messages. compiler/add_class.m: compiler/add_pragma.m: compiler/check_typeclass.m: compiler/common.m: compiler/make.module_dep_file.m: compiler/make_hlds_error.m: compiler/make_hlds_passes.m: compiler/mercury_compile.m: compiler/mode_errors.m: compiler/modes.m: compiler/options_file.m: compiler/prog_ctgc.m: compiler/prog_event.m: compiler/purity.m: compiler/trans_opt.m: compiler/typecheck.m: Trivial updates to conform to the changes above. compiler/prog_data.m: Add some field names and access functions for use in the modules above. library/list.m: Add list.contains, which is list.member with the arguments reversed to make it possibly to partially apply it. tests/invalid/bad_finalise_decl.err_exp: tests/invalid/bad_initialise_decl.err_exp: tests/invalid/bad_mutable.err_exp: tests/invalid/bigtest.err_exp: tests/invalid/conflicting_fs.err_exp: tests/invalid/constrained_poly_insts.err_exp: tests/invalid/errors.err_exp: tests/invalid/func_errors.err_exp: tests/invalid/fundeps_unbound_in_ctor.err_exp: tests/invalid/fundeps_vars.err_exp: tests/invalid/impl_def_literal_syntax.err_exp: tests/invalid/inst_list_dup.err_exp: tests/invalid/invalid_typeclass.err_exp: tests/invalid/kind.err_exp: tests/invalid/null_char.err_exp: tests/invalid/pragma_source_file.err_exp: tests/invalid/predmode.err_exp: tests/invalid/reserve_tag.err_exp: tests/invalid/some.err_exp: tests/invalid/specified.err_exp: tests/invalid/trace_goal_env.err_exp: tests/invalid/type_vars.err_exp: tests/invalid/typeclass_test_1.err_exp: tests/invalid/typeclass_test_11.err_exp: tests/invalid/typeclass_test_2.err_exp: tests/invalid/unbound_type_vars.err_exp: tests/invalid/unicode1.err_exp: tests/invalid/unicode2.err_exp: tests/invalid/uu_type.err_exp: tests/invalid/vars_in_wrong_places.err_exp: tests/invalid/with_type.err_exp: tests/invalid/purity/purity_nonsense2.err_exp: Update the expected error messages.	2008-07-16 03:31:03 +00:00

Leave the proc_id as invalid_proc_id and handle that in polymorphism.m. compiler/polymorphism.m: Convert higher order terms to lambda goals even if the proc_id is invalid (as above) moded by arbitrarily using the first mode. Then polymorphism can proceed as usual. Mark the goals with feature `feature_lambda_undetermined_mode', which tells mode checking to handle it.

Estimated hours taken: 80 by zs, and lots more by lmika Branches: main Provide compiler support for Software Transactional Memory through the new atomic goal. This work was done by Leon Mika; I merely brought it up to date, resolved conflicts, and cleaned up a few things. There are still several aspects that are as yet incomplete. library/ops.m: Add the operators needed for the syntax of atomic scopes. library/stm_builtin.m: Add the builtin operations needed for the implementation of atomic goals. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Add a new HLDS goal type, which represents an atomic goal and its possible fallbacks (in case an earlier goal throws an exception). Rename the predicate goal_is_atomic as goal_expr_has_subgoals, since now its old name would be misleading. compiler/prog_data.m: compiler/prog_item.m: Add a parse tree representation of the new kind of goal. compiler/prog_io_goal.m: Parse the new kind of goal. compiler/add_clause.m: Translate atomic goals from parse tree form to HLDS. compiler/typecheck.m: compiler/typecheck_errors.m: Do type checking of atomic goals. compiler/modes.m: Do mode checking of atomic goals, and determine whether they are nested or not. compiler/unique_modes.m: Do unique mode checking of atomic goals. compiler/stm_expand.m: New module to expand atomic goals into sequences of simpler goals. library/stm_builtin.m: Add the primitives needed by the transformation.

Mark Brown	7460aadbf8	Implement higher-order any' insts. Pred or func expressions with an any' ... Estimated hours taken: 100 Branches: main Implement higher-order `any' insts. Pred or func expressions with an `any' inst may bind non-local solver variables, but themselves must not be called in a negated context. (The existing ground pred and func expressions may not bind non-local solver variables, but may be called in a negated context.) Higher-order `any' insts are specified by using `any_pred' and `any_func' in place of `pred' and `func', respectively. We implement these insts by adding a new field to the any/1 constructor of mer_inst, which is identical to the ground_inst_info field of the ground/2 constructor. Both are given the new type `ho_inst_info'. We then relax the locking of non-local variables in these pred and func expressions, and extend call/N and apply/N to also accept the new insts (provided the variables are not locked). We also store the groundness (ho_ground or ho_any) of each lambda expression in a unification, in a new field in the rhs_lambda_goal constructor. NEWS: Mention the new feature. compiler/prog_data.m: Rename the ground_inst_info type ho_inst_info, and update its documentation. Add the ho_inst_info field to the any constructor in mer_inst. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Add the rhs_groundness field to rhs_lambda_goal in unify_rhs. compiler/inst_match.m: Propagate inst matching into the pred_inst_infos of any insts, if they exist. compiler/inst_util.m: Propagate abstract unification and inst merging into the pred_inst_infos of any insts, if they exist. May use of this information when building ground, any, shared and mostly_unique versions of insts. compiler/modecheck_call.m: Allow an `any' inst as the pred (func) argument to call/N (apply/N), but check that the variable is not locked. If the variable is locked, report a mode error which suggests using the ground inst. (We could also suggest that the goal be made impure, but it is best to point users towards the pure approach.) compiler/modecheck_unify.m: Relax the locking of non-locals when processing non-ground lambda goals. Update documentation. compiler/mode_util.m: Propagate type information into the pred_inst_infos of any insts. compiler/mode_errors.m: Change the purity error "lambda should be impure" to "lambda should be any", since this is better advice. Also provide an example of correct syntax if the verbose errors option is given. compiler/prog_io_goal.m: Parse the new kinds of expressions, returning the groundness along with the existing information about lambda expressions. compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Use the above groundness when building the lambda unification. compiler/prog_io_util.m: Parse the new kind of insts, filling in the new ho_inst_info field where appropriate. compiler/polymorphism.m: Handle the new fields. Assume that the shorthand form of lambda expressions always defines a ground inst -- if users want non-ground higher-order expressions they will need to use an explicit any_pred or any_func expression. compiler/equiv_type_hlds.m: Replace equivalent types in the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts. compiler/module_qual.m: Module qualify the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts. compiler/recompilation.usage.m: compiler/unused_imports.m: Look for items or imports used by insts in the pred_inst_infos of `any' insts. compiler/hlds_out.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Output the new lambda expressions and insts in the correct format. compiler/type_util.m: Treat all pred and func types as solver types. (Effectively they are, since all such types can now have non-ground values, with call/N and apply/N acting as constraints.) compiler/lambda.m: Pass the groundness value when building procedures for lambda expressions. This is not currently required for anything. doc/reference_manual.texi: Document the new feature, and update existing documentation on solver types and negated contexts. tests/valid/Mmakefile: tests/valid/ho_any_inst.m: New test case for some valid code using higher-order any insts. tests/invalid/Mmakefile: tests/invalid/ho_any_inst.err_exp: tests/invalid/ho_any_inst.m: New test case for some illegal code. tests/invalid/anys_in_negated_contexts.err_exp: Update expected error message for this test case.

Zoltan Somogyi	cc88711d63	Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate ... Estimated hours taken: 40 Branches: main Implement true multi-cons_id arm switches, i.e. switches in which we associate more than one cons_id with a switch arm. Previously, for switches like this: ( X = a, goal1 ; ( X = b ; X = c ), goal2 ) we duplicated goal2. With this diff, goal2 won't be duplicated. We still duplicate goals when that is necessary, i.e. in cases which the inner disjunction contains code other than a functor test on the switched-on var, like this: ( X = a, goal1 ; ( X = b, goalb ; X = c goalc ), goal2 ) For now, true multi-cons_id arm switches are supported only by the LLDS backend. Supporting them on the MLDS backend is trickier, because some MLDS target languages (e.g. Java) don't support the concept at all. So when compiling to MLDS, we still duplicate the goal in switch detection (although we could delay the duplication to just before code generation, if we wanted.) compiler/options.m: Add an internal option that tells switch detection whether to look for multi-cons_id switch arms. compiler/handle_options.m: Set this option based on the back end. Add a version of the "trans" dump level that doesn't print unification details. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Extend the representation of switch cases to allow more than one cons_id for a switch arm. Add a type for representing switches that also includes tag information (for use by the backends). compiler/hlds_data.m: For du types, record whether it is possible to speed up tests for one cons_id (e.g. cons) by testing for the other (nil) and negating the result. Recording this information once is faster than having unify_gen.m trying to compute it from scratch for every single tag test. Add a type for representing a cons_id together with its tag. compiler/hlds_out.m: Print out the cheaper_tag_test information for types, and possibly several cons_ids for each switch arm. Add some utility predicates for describing switch arms in terms of which cons_ids they are for. Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types. Make hlds_out honor is documentation, and not print out detailed information about unifications (e.g. uniqueness and static allocation) unless the right character ('u') is present in the control string. compiler/add_type.m: Fill in the information about cheaper tag tests when adding a du type. compiler/switch_detection.m: Extend the switch detection algorithm to detect multi-cons_id switch arms. When entering a switch arm, update the instmap to reflect that the switched-on variable can now be bound only to the cons_ids that this switch arm is for. We now need to do this, because if the arm contains another switch on the same variable, computing the can_fail field of that switch correctly requires us to know this information. (Obviously, an arm for a single cons_id is unlikely to have switch on the same variable, and for arms for several cons_ids, we previously duplicated the arm and left the unification with the cons_id in each copy, and this unification allowed the correct handling of any later switches. However, the code of a multi-cons_id switch arm obviously cannot have a unification with each cons_id in it, which is why we now need to get the binding information from the switch itself.) Replace some booleans with purpose-specific types, and give some predicates better names. compiler/instmap.m: Provide predicates for recording that a switched-on variable has one of several given cons_ids, for use at the starts of switch arms. Give some predicates better names. compiler/modes.m: Provide predicates for updating the mode_info at the start of a multi-cons_id switch arm. compiler/det_report.m: Handle multi-cons_id switch arms. Update the instmap when entering each switch arm, since this is needed to provide good (i.e. non-misleading) error messages when one switch on a variable exists inside another switch on the same variable. Since updating the instmap requires updating the module_info (since the new inst may require a new entry in an inst table), thread the det_info through as updateable state. Replace some multi-clause predicate definitions with single clauses, to make it easier to print the arguments in mdb. Fix some misleading variable names. compiler/det_analysis.m: Update the instmap when entering each switch arm and thread the det_info through as updateable state, since the predicates we call in det_report.m require this. compiler/det_util.m: Handle multi-cons_id switch arms. Rationalize the argument order of some access predicates. compiler/switch_util.m: Change the parts of this module that deal with string and tag switches to optionally convert each arm to an arbitrary representation of the arm. In the LLDS backend, the conversion process generated code for the arm, and the arm's representation is the label at the start of this code. This way, we can duplicate the label without duplicating the code. Add a new part of this module that associates each cons_id with its tag, and (during the same pass) checks whether all the cons_ids are integers, and if so what are min and max of these integers (needed for dense switches). This scan is needed because the old way of making this test had single-cons_id switch arms as one of its basic assumptions, and doing it while adding tags to each case reduces the number of traversals required. Give better names to some predicates. compiler/switch_case.m: New module to handle the tasks associated with managing multi-cons_id switch arms, including representing them for switch_util.m. compiler/ll_backend.m: Include the new module. compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Note the new module. compiler/llds.m: Change the computed goto instruction to take a list of maybe labels instead of a list of labels, with any missing labels meaning "not reached". compiler/string_switch.m: compiler/tag_switch.m: Reorganize the way these modules work. We can't generate the code of each arm in place anymore, since it is now possible for more than one cons_id to call for the execution of the same code. Instead, in string_switch.m, we generate the codes of all the arms all at once, and construct the hash index afterwards. (This approach simplifies the code significantly.) In tag switches (unlike string switches), we can get locality benefits if the code testing for a cons_id is close to the code for that cons_id, so we still try to put them next to each other when such a locality benefit is available. In both modules, the new approach uses a utility predicate in switch_case.m to actually generate the code of each switch arm, eliminating several copies the same code in the old versions of these modules. In tag_switch.m, don't create a local label that simply jumps to the code address do_not_reached. Previously, we had to do this for positions in jump tables that corresponded to cons_ids that the switch variable could not be bound to. With the change to llds.m, we now simply generate a "no" instead. compiler/lookup_switch.m: Get the info about int switch limits from our caller; don't compute it here. Give some variables better names. compiler/dense_switch.m: Generate the codes of the cases all at once, then assemble the table, duplicate the labels as needed. This separation of concerns allows significant simplifications. Pack up all the information shared between the predicate that detects whether a dense switch is appropriate and the predicate that actually generates the dense switch. Move some utility predicates to switch_util. compiler/switch_gen.m: Delete the code for tagging cons_ids, since that functionality is now in switch_util.m. The old version of this module could call the code generator to produce (i.e. materialize) the switched-on variable repeatedly. We now produce the variable once, and do the switch on the resulting rval. compiler/unify_gen.m: Use the information about cheaper tag tests in the type constructor's entry in the HLDS type table, instead of trying to recompute it every time.

If this is enabled, the compiler will generate informational messages about if-then-elses that it thinks should be converted to switches for the sake of program reliability. Act on the output generated by this option. compiler/simplify.m: Implement the new option. Fix an old bug that could cause us to generate warnings about code that was OK in one duplicated copy but not in another (where a switch arm's code is duplicated due to the case being selected for more than one cons_id). compiler/options.m: Add the new option. Add a way to test for the bug fix in simplify. doc/user_guide.texi: Document the new option. NEWS: Mention the new option. library/*.m: mdbcomp/*.m: browser/*.m: compiler/*.m: deep_profiler/*.m: Convert if-then-elses to switches at most of the sites suggested by the new option. At the remaining sites, switching to switches would have nontrivial downsides. This typically happens with the switched-on type has many functors, and we treat one or two specially (e.g. cons/2 in the cons_id type). Perform misc cleanups in the vicinity of the if-then-else to switch conversions. In a few cases, improve the error messages generated. compiler/accumulator.m: compiler/hlds_goal.m: (Rename and) move insts for particular kinds of goal from accumulator.m to hlds_goal.m, to allow them to be used in other modules. Using these insts allowed us to eliminate some if-then-elses entirely. compiler/exprn_aux.m: Instead of fixing some if-then-elses, delete the predicates containing them, since they aren't used, and (as pointed out by the new option) would need considerable other fixing if they were ever needed again. compiler/lp_rational.m: Add prefixes to the names of the function symbols on some types, since without those prefixes, it was hard to figure out what type the switch corresponding to an old if-then-else was switching on. tests/invalid/reserve_tag.err_exp: Expect a new, improved error message.	2007-11-23 07:36:01 +00:00

Fix a bug in with the handling of type class method calls in the termination analyser. We should not run pass 2 if we encounter a method call during pass 1. Add an XXX comment about some other possible bugs of a similar nature. compiler/prog_data.m: Define the type arg_size_term/0 as a d.u. type, not a pair. compiler/term_errors.m: Define the type termination_error_context/0 as a d.u. type, not a pair. Change the semidet predicate indirect_error/1 into a det function is_indirect_error/1. Add the function is_fatal_error/1. (See change to termination.m below.) compiler/term_pass2.m: Define the type call_weight_info/0 as a d.u. type, not a pair. compiler/termination.m: Move the body of the closure that determines if an error is fatal into term_errors.m, and make it into a named function that returns a bool. Use that here. (In the process of doing this I discovered that the code for handling fatal errors was not handling type class method calls correctly, they *should* be handled like higher-order calls. Also, some of the more recently added termination error categories may not be handled correctly here - I have added an XXX comment to term_errors.m regarding this.) compiler/unify_proc.m: Define the type unify_proc_id/0 as a d.u. type, not a pair. compiler/goal_store.m: Define the type stored_goal/0 as a d.u. type, not a pair. compiler/mode_errors.m: Define the type merge_error/0 as a d.u. type, not a pair. compiler/accumulator.m: compiler/instmap.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: compiler/modecheck_unify.m: compiler/prog_io_pragma.m: compiler/term_constr_initial.m: compiler/term_pass1.m: compiler/term_traversal.m: compiler/term_util.m: Conform to the above changes.	2007-08-27 06:22:16 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	e53a6192d0	Improve the performance of the compiler by making sure that the mode_info ... Estimated hours taken: 3 Branches: main Improve the performance of the compiler by making sure that the mode_info structure contains only its most frequently updated and/or accessed fields and that these fit into an eight-word memory cell, moving the rest of the fields to the mode_sub_info structure. This improves performance on our standard benchmark from 20.60 seconds to 19.06 seconds, an improvement of 7%. compiler/mode_info.m: Make the change described above. Several fields of mode_sub_info were bools. Replace these with single-purpose types, to make them harder to mix up, especially during initialization. Similarly, replace the type of the field used for checking parallel conjunctions with a specialized type instead of a pair. Rename some predicates for greater consistency with the rest of the compiler. Rename field names to avoid ambiguities. Use the access predicates instead of field access syntax to access the fields of mode_info and mode_sub_info, to make any similar changes easier in the future, and also to make statistics about frequency of field accesses easier to gather. compiler/modecheck_call.m: compiler/modecheck_unify.m: compiler/modes.m: Conform to the changes in mode_info. compiler/modes.m: compiler/unique_modes.m: Do not execute the (save, set to known value, restore) sequence for the "duplicated for switch" feature unless necessary. This avoids a bunch of accesses and updates to the mode_sub_info. In both cases, this required moving some code that would otherwise have had to be duplicated into an inlined predicate. In unique_modes.m, rename a predicate to allow its name to be used for the new inlined predicate. compiler/Mercury.options: Change the inlining limit to allow those predicates to be inlined.	2007-08-14 01:52:30 +00:00

The problem was that error_util defined a data constructor (print_anything) with a higher order argument; higher order terms cannot be compared. compiler/error_util.m: Replace the higher order argument of the print_anything data constructor argument with an existentially quantified constrained type. Define the print_anything/1 type class. compiler/mode_errors.m: Use the new definition for print_anything.	2007-07-31 03:53:30 +00:00
Ian MacLarty	ac651b033b	Only report mode warnings if they occur in all modes. ... Estimated hours taken: 5 Branches: main Only report mode warnings if they occur in all modes. simplify.m already had code to remove error_specs that do not occur in all modes, so move this code to error_util.m and reuse it in modes.m. Also only report mode warnings for user defined predicates. Do not report them for compiler generated predicates (after making the change in the previous paragraph, the compiler issued a warning for a generated unification predicate in term_to_xml.m). compiler/cse_detection.m: Conform to new interface of modecheck_proc. compiler/error_util.m: Add an abstract type error_spec_accumulator and predicates for working with this type. The new type is used for accumulating errors over multiple modes of a predicate. The code for accumulating error specs has been moved from simplify.m. There was a bug in this code caused by the arguments of the pair in the error_spec_accumulator type getting mixed up. This bug has now been fixed. Add mode_report_control to the modecheck phase, so we can mark which error specs should only be reported if they occur in all modes. compiler/mode_errors.m: Delete report_mode_errors and report_mode_warnings, since these are no longer used. Export mode_error_info_to_spec and mode_warning_info_to_spec for converting mode errors and warnings to error specs. Conform to changes in error_util.m. compiler/modecheck_unify.m: Do not supress warnings if the mode may use a subtype, since we want such warnings to be displayed if the occur in all modes. Only report mode warnings if the predicate is not a compiler generated predicate. compiler/modes.m: Delete modecheck_pred_mode and modecheck_proc_info, since they are not used anywhere. In modecheck_proc and modecheck_proc_general report a list of error specs, instead of the number of errors. These predicates are now no longer responsible for printing the errors, they just return the error specs. We need to do it this way so we can accumulate the errors over all modes (eliminating any warnings that don't occur in all modes) before printing them. Report errors in modecheck_pred_mode_2, after all modes have been processed. Accumulate the error specs in modecheck_procs, using the new predicates in error_util.m. Move the code for only reporting the first error encountered for a proc from mode_errors.m to here. Also improve the comment for that bit of code. Conform to changes in error_util.m. compiler/pd_util.m: Conform to changes in error_util.m. compiler/simplify.m: Move the code for accumulating error specs to error_util.m compiler/unify_proc.m: compiler/unique_modes.m: Conform to changes elsewhere. tests/invalid/ho_type_mode_bug.err_exp: The order the errors are reported has changed here, because we now call write_error_specs to report mode errors. tests/invalid/qualified_cons_id2.err_exp: tests/warnings/simple_code.exp: tests/warnings/simple_code.m: We now correctly report a warning we didn't report before.	2007-05-28 01:06:25 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	27aaaf412c	Fix the failure of the invalid/modes_erroneous test case, whose symptom was ... Estimated hours taken: 5 Branches: main Fix the failure of the invalid/modes_erroneous test case, whose symptom was an error message about a "mode error in unification of `X' and `X'". The root cause of the problem was that the renaming of head variables computed by headvar_names.m was being applied too early, during typechecking. The fix is to apply it after the frontend (all the passes that can generate error messages). To avoid slowdowns from larger pred_infos, this diff also moves the least frequently used fields of pred_infos to a subterm. (Proc_infos already had a subterm.) This leads to an almost 3% speedup. compiler/headvar_names.m: Store the renaming instead of applying it. compiler/simplify.m: Apply the renaming in invocations after the front end, since doing so may allow some excess assignments to be eliminated. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Add fields to pred_infos and proc_infos for the renaming. Move the least frequently used fields of pred_infos into a pred_sub_info. Some fields of pred_infos were being accessed using predicates that did not follow our naming conventions, and some were accessed using field access functions that are now inappropriate; fix them all. Require the caller to provide the renaming when creating new pred_infos and proc_infos. This is to force the compiler components that do this to propagate the renaming fields of the original predicates and/or procedures to their modified versions. Convert that some old code that used if-then-elses to use switches instead. compiler/hlds_out.m: Write out the new pred_info and proc_info fields. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changes in hlds_pred.m. compiler/hlds_clauses.m: Avoid ambiguity by giving a prefix to the fields of the clauses_info type. tests/invalid/ho_type_mode_bug.err_exp: tests/invalid/merge_ground_any.err_exp: Don't expect error messages about "X = X" anymore.	2007-05-17 03:53:13 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	b56885be93	Fix a bug that caused bootchecks with --optimize-constructor-last-call to fail. ... Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Fix a bug that caused bootchecks with --optimize-constructor-last-call to fail. The problem was not in lco.m, but in follow_code.m. In some cases, (specifically, the LCMC version of insert_2 in sparse_bitset.m), follow_code.m moved an impure goal (store_at_ref) into the arms of an if-then-else without marking those arms, or the if-then-else, as impure. The next pass, simplify, then deleted the entire if-then-else, since it had no outputs. (The store_at_ref that originally appeared after the if-then-else was the only consumer of its only output.) The fix is to get follow_code.m to make branched control structures such as if-then-elses, as well as their arms, semipure or impure if a goal being moved into them is semipure or impure, or if they came from an semipure or impure conjunction. Improve the optimization of the LCMC version of sparse_bitset.insert_2, which had a foreign_proc invocation of bits_per_int in it: replace such invocations with a unification of the bits_per_int constant if not cross compiling. Add a new option, --optimize-constructor-last-call-null. When set, LCMC will assign NULLs to the fields not yet filled in, to avoid any junk happens to be there from being followed by the garbage collector's mark phase. This diff also makes several other changes that helped me to track down the bug above. compiler/follow_code.m: Make the fix described above. Delete all the provisions for --prev-code; it won't be implemented. Don't export a predicate that is not now used anywhere else. compiler/simplify.m: Make the optimization described above. compiler/lco.m: Make sure that the LCMC specialized procedure is a predicate, not a function: having a function with the mode LCMC_insert_2(in, in) = in looks wrong. To avoid name collisions when a function and a predicate with the same name and arity have LCMC applied to them, include the predicate vs function status of the original procedure included in the name of the new procedure. Update the sym_name of calls to LCMC variants, not just the pred_id, because without that, the HLDS dump looks misleading. compiler/pred_table.m: Don't have optimizations like LCMC insert new predicates at the front of the list of predicates. Maintain the list of predicates in the module as a two part list, to allow efficient addition of new pred_ids at the (logical) end without using O(N^2) algorithms. Having predicates in chronological order makes it easier to look at HLDS dumps and .c files. compiler/hlds_module.m: Make module_info_predids return a module_info that is physically updated though logically unchanged. compiler/options.m: Add --optimize-constructor-last-call-null. Make the options --dump-hlds-pred-id, --debug-opt-pred-id and --debug-opt-pred-name into accumulating options, to allow the user to specify more than one predicate to be dumped (e.g. insert_2 and its LCMC variant). Delete --prev-code. doc/user_guide.texi: Document the changes in options.m. compiler/code_info.m: Record the value of --optimize-constructor-last-call-null in the code_info, to avoid lookup at every cell construction. compiler/unify_gen.m: compiler/var_locn.m: When deciding whether a cell can be static or not, make sure that we never make static a cell that has some fields initialized with dummy zeros, to be filled in for real later. compiler/hlds_out.m: For goals that are semipure or impure, note this fact. This info was lost when I changed the representation of impurity from markers to a field. mdbcomp/prim_data.m: Rename some ambiguous function symbols. compiler/intermod.m: compiler/trans_opt.m: Rename the main predicates (and some function symbols) of these modules to avoid ambiguity and to make them more expressive. compiler/llds.m: Don't print line numbers for foreign_code fragments if the user has specified --no-line-numbers. compiler/make.dependencies.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: compiler/recompilation.usage.m: Don't use io.write to write out information to files we may need to parse again, because this is vulnerable to changes to the names of function symbols (e.g. the one to mdbcomp/prim_data.m). The compiler still contains some uses of io.write, but they are for debugging. I added an item to the todo list of the one exception, ilasm.m. compiler/recompilation.m: Rename a misleading function symbol name. compiler/parse_tree.m: Don't import recompilation.m here. It is not needed (all the components of parse_tree that need recompilation.m already import it themselves), and deleting the import avoids recompiling almost everything when recompilation.m changes. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changes above. compiler/*.m: browser/*.m: slice/*.m: Conform to the change to mdbcomp. library/sparse_bitset.m: Use some better variable names.	2007-01-19 07:05:06 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	ba93a52fe7	This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair ... Estimated hours taken: 10 Branches: main This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair to being discriminated union types with their own function symbol. This was motivated by an error message (one of many, but the one that broke the camel's back) about "-" being used in an ambiguous manner. It will reduce the number of such messages in the future, and will make compiler data structures easier to inspect in the debugger. The most important type changed by far is hlds_goal, whose function symbol is now "hlds_goal". Second and third in importance are llds.instruction (function symbol "llds_instr") and prog_item.m's item_and_context (function symbol "item_and_context"). There are some others as well. In several places, I rearranged predicates to factor the deconstruction of goals into hlds_goal_expr and hlds_goal_into out of each clause into a single point. In many places, I changed variable names that used "Goal" to refer to just hlds_goal_exprs to use "GoalExpr" instead. I also changed variable names that used "Item" to refer to item_and_contexts to use "ItemAndContext" instead. This should make reading such code less confusing. I renamed some function symbols and predicates to avoid ambiguities. I only made one algorithmic change (at least intentionally). In assertion.m, comparing two goals for equality now ignores goal_infos for all kinds of goals, whereas previously it ignored them for most kinds of goals, but for shorthand goals it was insisting on them being equal. This seemed to me to be a bug. Pete, can you confirm this?	2007-01-06 09:23:59 +00:00

Estimated hours taken: 12 Branches: main Modify check_typeclass.m to gather up all error messages, and print them all at once after sorting. Modify the determinism analysis pass to generate error_specs directly, instead of generating context_det_msgs and converting those to error_specs later. Separate the simplify pass's mechanism for generating error messages from the determinism pass. compiler/check_typeclass.m: Return all error messages instead of printing them when generated. Keep the error messages outside the instance_method_info structure, and give the fields of the structure names. compiler/det_analysis.m: Generate error specs directly. compiler/det_report.m: Delete the context_det_msg data type and the predicates that operated on it, since they are no longer needed. The code that used to convert a context_det_msg into an error_spec is now dispersed to the sites that generate the error report in the first place. These sites are mostly in det_analysis.m and simplify.m, with a few in other modules (e.g. common.m and format_call.m). Export some auxiliary functions that the these sites now need. compiler/simplify.m: Generate error_specs directly, instead of through context_det_msgs, and return them to the caller for printing. compiler/common.m: compiler/format_call.m: Conform to the change to det_report.m. compiler/unused_import.m: Return all error messages instead of printing them when generated. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Print the error message batches returned by the modified passes. Use the version of globals in module_infos in preference to the one in the I/O state, since we would like to phase out the latter.

Provide a standard way to format type constructor names. Require the calls to provide the globals when printing error_specs. This is to allow callers to provide the globals from a module_info, instead of the one in the I/O state. compiler/passes_aux.m: Provide support for passes that have lists of error_specs threaded through them, as simplify now does.

Estimated hours taken: 14 Branches: main Convert the make_hlds stage of the compiler from printing out error messages one at a time to gathering them all up and printing them all at once after sorting and deleting duplicates. This approach makes it much easier to be consistent about updating the exit status in the I/O state and the error count in the module info, and indeed this diff fixes some bugs in this area. This approach also means that instead of threading a pair of I/O states through these modules, we now mostly thread through a list of error specifications. In a couple of places, we create the I/O states we need for printing progress messages using trace goals. configure.in: Check that the installed compiler supports trace goals (perhaps with warnings), since the compiler now uses them. compiler/Mercury.options: Temporarily compensate for a bug in the handling of trace goals. compiler/add_class.m: compiler/add_clause.m: compiler/add_mode.m: compiler/add_pragma.m: compiler/add_pred.m: compiler/add_solver.m: compiler/add_type.m: compiler/field_access.m: compiler/foreign.m: compiler/make_hlds_error.m: compiler/make_hlds_passes.m: compiler/make_hlds_warn.m: compiler/module_qual.m: compiler/modules.m: compiler/qual_info.m: compiler/state_var.m: compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Make the change described at the top. In many cases, this required changing code to error util instead of io.write_strings to create the error messages. In some cases, move a predicate used in one module but defined in another module to the first module. Delete some predicates whose job used to be to test options to see whether a message should be generated, since we can now embed the option value that a message depends on in the error message itself. In module_qual.m, remove unnecessary module qualifications. In modules.m, give explicit names to a bunch of lambda expressions. Reformat comments to exploit the available columns. compiler/check_typeclass.m: Conform to the changes above. Mark with XXX the places where we are ignoring the proper update of the error count in module_infos. compiler/modes.m: compiler/post_typecheck.m: compiler/stratify.m: compiler/table_gen.m: compiler/unused_args.m: Use error_specs instead of plain pieces to print error messages. compiler/options.m: Rename an option that conflicts with a language keyword. compiler/handle_options.m: Conform to the change to options.m. compiler/prog_data.m: Rename some function symbols that conflict with language keywords. compiler/prog_out.m: compiler/prog_io_util.m: Conform the change above, and delete some predicates that have now become unused. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Rename a predicate to avoid an ambiguity.

Zoltan Somogyi	5eee81204e	A big step towards cleaning up the way we handle errors. ... Estimated hours taken: 28 Branches: main A big step towards cleaning up the way we handle errors. The main changes are - the provision, in error_util.m, of a mechanism for completely specifying everything to do with a single error in one data structure, - the conversion of typecheck_errors.m from using io.write_string to using this new capability, - the conversion of mode_errors.m and det_report.m from using write_error_pieces to using this new capability, and - consistently using the quoting style `symname'/N instead of `symname/N' in error_util and hlds_error_util (previously, error_util used the former but hlds_error_util used the latter). This diff sets up later diffs which will collect all error specifications in a central place and print them all at once, in order. compiler/error_util.m: The new type error_spec, which completely specifies an error. An error_spec may have multiple components with different contexts and may have parts which are printed only under certain conditions, e.g. a given option being set. Each error_spec has a severity and also records which phase found the error. The new predicate write_error_spec takes care of updates of the exit status for errors and (if --halt-at-warn is set) for warnings. It also takes care of setting the flag that calls for the reminder about -E at the end. This diff also makes it simpler to use the ability to print arbitrary output. It adds the ability to include integers in messages directly, and the ability to create blank lines. It renames some function symbols to avoid ambiguities. Move a predicate that only used by typecheck_errors.m to that file. compiler/hlds_error_util.m: Switch to the `symname'/N quoting style for describing predicates and procedures. compiler/prog_util.m: Switch to the `symname'/N quoting style for describing sym_name_and_arity. compiler/hlds_module.m: Provide a predicate to increment the number of errors not by one, but by the number of errors printed by write_error_spec. Fix some documentation rot. compiler/typecheck_errors.m: Use write_error_spec instead of io.write_strings to print error messages. In several cases, improve the formatting of the messages printed. Mark a number of places where we don't (yet) update the number of errors in the module_info correctly. Rename the checkpoint predicate to avoid potential ambiguity with similar predicates in e.g. mode_info. compiler/typecheck_info.m: Group the code for writing stuff out together in one bunch. For each such predicate, create another that returns a list of format components instead of doing I/O directly. compiler/typecheck.m: Move the code for writing inference messages here from typecheck_errors.m, since these messages aren't errors. compiler/mode_errors.m: compiler/det_report.m: Use write_error_spec instead of write_error_pieces. In the case of mode_errors.m, this means we now get correct the set of circumstances in which we set the flag that calls for the reminder about -E. compiler/add_pragma.m: compiler/add_type.m: Convert some code that used to use write_error_pieces to print error messages to use write_error_spec instead. compiler/assertion.m: compiler/hlds_pred.m: compiler/post_typecheck.m: Assertion.m used to contain some code to check for assertions in the interface that mention predicates that are not exported. Move most of this code to post_typecheck.m (which is where this code used to be called from). One small part, which is a test for a particular property of import_statuses, is moved to hlds_pred.m to be with all the other similar tests of import_statuses. compiler/prog_util.m: Change unqualify_name from a predicate to a function. compiler/pred_table.m: compiler/hlds_out.m: Avoid some ambiguities by adding a suffix to the names of some predicates. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changes above. library/list.m: Add a function that was previously present (with different names) in two compiler modules. tests/hard_coded/allow_stubs.exp: Update the format of the expected exception. tests/invalid/errors2.err_exp2: Remove this file. As far as I can tell, it was never the correct expected output on the main branch. (It originated on the alias branch way back in the mists of time.) tests/invalid/*.err_exp: tests/invalid/purity/*.err_exp: tests/warnings/*.exp: Update the format of the expected error messages. tests/recompilation/*.err_exp.2: Update the format of the expected messages about what was modified.	2006-09-07 05:51:48 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	2b2f3d3cbe	This diff contains no algorithmic changes. ... Estimated hours taken: 8 Branches: main This diff contains no algorithmic changes. It merely renames apart a bunch of function symbols to reduce ambiguity. Basically I went through prog_data.m, prog_item.m, hlds_data.m, hlds_goal.m and hlds_pred.m looking for type definitions containing function symbol names that were either language "keywords" (e.g. "terminates", which is an annotation on foreign_procs), used with slightly different meanings in several types (e.g. "sym"), or both (e.g. "call"). When I found such type definitions, I changed the names of the function symbols, usually by adding a prefix or suffix indicating the type to all function symbols of the type. For example, the old function symbol "foreign_proc" in type "pragma_type" is now named "pragma_foreign_proc", and the names of all other function symbols in that type also start with "pragma_". All of this should yield simpler compiler error messages when we make mistakes, and will make it more likely that looking up a function symbol using a tags file will take you to the actual definition of the relevant instance of that function symbol. However, the most important benefit is the increase in the readability of unfamiliar code; the reader won't have to emulate the compiler's type ambiguity resolution algorithm (which in many cases used to require distinguishing between f/14 and f/15 by counting the arguments, e.g. for "pred_or_func"). compiler/prog_data.m: compiler/prog_item.m: compiler/hlds_data.m: compiler/hlds_goal.m: compiler/hlds_pred.m: Rename function symbols as explained above. compiler/*.m: Conform to the function symbol renames. In some cases, rename other function symbols as well. Minor style fixes, e.g. replace if-then-elses with switches, or simple det predicates with functions.	2006-08-20 08:21:36 +00:00

Zoltan Somogyi	9d23d8e2e7	Implement the trace goal construct we discussed, for now for the LLDS backends ... Estimated hours taken: 70 Branches: main Implement the trace goal construct we discussed, for now for the LLDS backends only. Since the syntax of trace goals is non-trivial, useful feedback on syntax errors inside trace goal attributes is essential. With the previous setup, this wasn't possible, since the code that turned terms into parse tree goals turned *all* terms into goals; it couldn't recognize any errors, sweeping them under the rug as calls. This diff changes that. Now, if this code recognizes a keyword that indicates a particular construct, it insists on the rest of the code following the syntax required for that construct, and returns error messages if it doesn't. We handle the trace goal attributes that specify state variables to be threaded through the trace goal (either the I/O state or a mutable variable) in add_clause.m, at the point at which we transform the list of items to the HLDS. We handle the compile-time condition on trace goals in the invocation of simplify at the end of semantics analysis, by eliminating the goal if the compile-time condition isn't met. We handle run-time conditions on trace goals partially in the same invocation of simplify: we transform trace goals with runtime conditions into an if-then-else with the trace goal as the then part and `true' as the else part, the condition being a foreign_proc that is handled specially by the code generator, that special handling being to replace the actual code of the foreign_proc (which is a dummy) with the evaluation of the runtime condition. Since these changes require significant changes to some of our key data structures, I took the liberty of doing some renaming of function symbols at the same time to avoid using ambiguities with respect to language keywords. library/ops.m: Add "trace" as an operator. compiler/prog_data.m: Define data types to represent the various attributes of trace goals. Rename some function symbols to avoid ambiguities. compiler/prog_item.m: Extend the parse tree representation of goals with a trace goal. compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Output the new kind of goal and its components. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Extend the HLDS representation of scopes with a scope_reason representing trace goals. Add a mechanism (an extra argument in foreign_procs) to allow the representation of goals that evaluate runtime trace conditions. Since this requires modifying all code that traverses the HLDS, do some renames that were long overdue: rename not as negation, rename call as plain_call, and rename foreign_proc as call_foreign_proc. These renames all avoid using language keywords as function symbols. Change the way we record goals' purities. Instead of optional features to indicate impure or semipure, which is error-prone, use a plain field in the goal_info, accessed in the usual way. Add a way to represent that a goal contains a trace goal, and should therefore be treated as if it were impure when considering whether to optimize it away. Reformat some comments describing function symbols. compiler/hlds_out.m: Output the new construct in the HLDS. compiler/prog_io_util.m: Generalize the maybe[123] types to allow the representation of more than one error message. Add functions to extract the error messages. Add a maybe4 type. Rename the function symbols of these types to avoid massive ambiguity. Change the order of some predicates to bring related predicates next to each other. compiler/prog_io.m: compiler/prog_io_dcg.m: compiler/prog_io_goal.m: compiler/prog_io_pragma.m: Rework these modules almost completely to find and accumulate syntax errors as terms are being parsed. In some cases, this allowed us to replace "XXX this is a hack" markers with meaningful error-reporting code. In prog_io_goal.m, add code for parsing trace goals. In a bunch of places, update obsolete coding practices, such as using nested chains of closures instead of simple sequential code, and using A0 and A to refer to values of different types (terms and goals respectively). Use more meaningful variable names. Break up some too-large predicates. compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Find and accumulate syntax errors as terms are being parsed. compiler/add_clause.m: Add code to transform trace goals from the parse tree to the HLDS. This is where the IO state and mutable variable attributes of trace goals are handled. Eliminate the practice of using the naming scheme Body0 and Body to refer to values of different types (prog_item.goal and hlds_goal respectively). Use error_util for some error messages. library/private_builtin.m: Add the predicates referred to by the transformation in add_clause.m. compiler/goal_util.m: Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity. compiler/typecheck.m: Do not print error messages about missing clauses if some errors have been detected previously. compiler/purity.m: Instead of just computing purity, compute (and record) also whether a goal contains a trace goal. However, treat trace goals as pure. compiler/mode_info.m: Add trace goals as a reason for locking variables. Rename some function symbols to avoid ambiguity. compiler/modes.m: When analyzing trace goal scopes, lock the scope's nonlocal variables to prevent them from being further instantiated. compiler/det_analysis.m: Insist on the code in trace goal scopes being det or cc_multi. compiler/det_report.m: Generate the error message if the code in a trace goal scope isn't det or cc_multi. compiler/simplify.m: At the end of the front end, eliminate trace goal scopes if their compile-time condition is false. Transform trace goals with runtime conditions as described at the top. Treat goals that contain trace goals as if they were impure when considering whether to optimize them away. compiler/mercury_compile.m: Tell simplify when it is being invoked at the end of the front end. Rename a predicate to avoid ambiguity. compiler/trace_params.m: Provide the predicates simplify.m need to be able to evaluate the trace goal conditions regarding trace levels. compiler/trace.m: compiler/trace_gen.m: Rename the trace module as trace_gen, since "trace" is now an operator. Rename some predicates exported by the module, now that it is no longer possible to preface calls with "trace." as a module qualifier. compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Document this name change. compiler/options.m: Rename the trace option as trace_level internally, since "trace" is now an operator. The user-visible name remains the same. Add the new --trace-flag option. Delete an obsolete option. compiler/handle_options.m: Rename the function symbols of the grade_component type, since "trace" is now an operator. compiler/llds.m: Extend the LLDS with a mechanism to refer to C global variables. For now, these are used to refer to C globals that will be created by mkinit to represent the initial values of the environment variables referred to by trace goals. compiler/commit_gen.m: Check that no trace goal with a runtime condition survives to code generation; they should have been transformed by simplify.m. compiler/code_gen.m: Tell commit_gen.m what kind of scope it is generating code for. compiler/pragma_c_gen.m: Generate code for runtime conditions when handling the foreign_procs created by simplify.m. compiler/code_info.m: Allow pragma_c_gen.m to record what environment variables it has generated references to. compiler/proc_gen.m: Record the set of environment variables a procedure refers to in the LLDS procedure header, for efficient access by llds_out.m. compiler/llds_out.m: Handle the new LLDS construct, and tell mkinit which environment variables need C globals created for them. compiler/pd_util.m: Rename some predicates to avoid ambiguity. compiler/*.m: Conform to the changes above, mainly the renames of function symbols and predicates, the changed signatures of some predicates, and the new handling of purity. util/mkinit.c: Generate the definitions and the initializations of any C globals representing the initial status (set or not set) of environment variables needed by trace goals. library/assoc_list.m: Add some predicates that are useful in prog_io*.m. library/term_io.m: Minor cleanup. tests/hard_coded/trace_goal_{1,2}.{m,exp}: New test cases to test the new construct, identical except for whether the trace goal is enabled at compile time. tests/hard_coded/trace_goal_env_{1,2}.{m,exp}: New test cases to test the new construct, identical except for whether the trace goal is enabled at run time. tests/hard_coded/Mercury.options: tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile: Enable the new test cases. tests/invalid/*.err_exp: Update the expected output for the new versions of the error messages now being generated.	2006-07-27 05:03:54 +00:00

We only perform this check in the absence of a promise_{pure,semipure} pragma for the predicate or function. Previously this situation was sometimes picked up by purity analysis but not in all cases. For example, if a predicate was declared impure but the foreign_proc was promised pure it wasn't reported.

Estimated hours taken: 16 Branches: main Undo my recent changes to purity error checking in the context of inst any non-locals in negated contexts. Implement a better way of handling the problem, as discussed on the mailing list. The new solution is to require that any goals featuring inst any non-locals in a negated context must appear in a promise_{pure,semipure,impure} context. This is something of a compromise: on the one hand it does require that the condition be explicitly recognised by the programmer; on the other, it does not require that the "offending" goals be individually identified (this is partly for pragmatic reasons: the earlier approach required a plethora of awkward impurity declarations on goals that would otherwise be considered completely pure). compiler/mode_errors.m: Remove purity_error_should_be_impure and purity_error_wrongly_impure data constructors; add purity_error_should_be_in_promise_purity_scope. compiler/mode_info.m: Replace the in_negated_context field with the in_promise_purity_scope field. compiler/modecheck_call.m: compiler/modecheck_unify.m: Back out my previous change. compiler/modes.m: Record a purity error if a non-local inst any variable appears in a negation or the condition of an if-then-else goal. compiler/purity.m: compiler/unique_modes.m: Back out my previous change. doc/reference_manual.texi: Document the new purity rules for inst any non-locals in negated contexts. tests/debugger/solver_test.m: tests/hard_coded/any_free_unify.m: tests/invalid/any_passed_as_ground.m: tests/invalid/any_to_ground_in_ite_cond.m: tests/invalid/anys_in_negated_contexts.err_exp: tests/invalid/anys_in_negated_contexts.m: tests/invalid/purity/impure_func_t7.err_exp: tests/invalid/purity/impure_func_t7.m: Fix up error cases to use the new syntax.	2005-12-14 05:14:17 +00:00

Zoltan Somogyi	f9fe8dcf61	Improve the error messages generated for determinism errors involving committed ... Estimated hours taken: 8 Branches: main Improve the error messages generated for determinism errors involving committed choice contexts. Previously, we printed a message to the effect that e.g. a cc pred is called in context that requires all solutions, but we didn't say *why* the context requires all solutions. We now keep track of all the goals to the right that could fail, since it is these goals that may reject the first solution of a committed choice goal. The motivation for this diff was the fact that I found that locating the failing goal can be very difficult if the conjunction to the right is a couple of hundred lines long. This would have been a nontrivial problem, since (a) unifications involving values of user-defined types are committed choice goals, and (b) we can expect uses of user-defined types to increase. compiler/det_analysis.m: Keep track of goals to the right of the current goal that could fail, and include them in the error representation if required. compiler/det_report.m: Include the list of failing goals to the right in the representations of determinism errors involving committed committed choice goals. Convert the last part of this module that wasn't using error_util to use error_util. Make most parts of this module just construct error message specifications; print those specifications (using error_util) in only a few places. compiler/hlds_out.m: Add a function for use by the new code in det_report.m. compiler/error_util.m: Add a function for use by the new code in det_report.m. compiler/error_util.m: compiler/compiler_util.m: Error_util is still changing reasonably often, and yet it is included in lots of modules, most of which need only a few simple non-parse-tree-related predicates from it (e.g. unexpected). Move those predicates to a new module, compiler_util.m. This also eliminates some undesirable dependencies from libs to parse_tree. compiler/libs.m: Include compiler_util.m. compiler/notes/compiler_design.html: Document compiler_util.m, and fix the documentation of some other modules. compiler/*.m: Import compiler_util instead of or in addition to error_util. To make this easier, consistently use . instead of __ for module qualifying module names. tests/invalid/det_errors_cc.{m,err_exp}: Add this new test case to test the error messages for cc contexts. tests/invalid/det_errors_deet.{m,err_exp}: Add this new test case to test the error messages for unifications inside function symbols. tests/invalid/Mmakefile: Add the new test cases. tests/invalid/det_errors.err_exp: tests/invalid/magicbox.err_exp: Change the expected output to conform to the change in det_report.m, which is now more consistent.	2005-10-28 02:11:03 +00:00
Zoltan Somogyi	b2012c0c0e	Rename the types 'type', 'inst' and 'mode' to 'mer_type', 'mer_inst' ... Estimated hours taken: 8 Branches: main compiler/*.m: Rename the types 'type', 'inst' and 'mode' to 'mer_type', 'mer_inst' and 'mer_mode'. This is to avoid the need to parenthesize these type names in some contexts, and to prepare for the possibility of a parser that considers those words to be reserved words. Rename some other uses of those names (e.g. as item types in recompilation.m). Delete some redundant synonyms (prog_type, mercury_type) for mer_type. Change some type names (e.g. mlds__type) and predicate names (e.g. deforest__goal) to make them unique even without module qualification. Rename the function symbols (e.g. pure, &) that need to be renamed to avoid the need to parenthesize them. Make their replacement names more expressive. Convert some more modules to four space indentation. Avoid excessively long lines, such as those resulting from the automatic substitution of 'mer_type' for 'type'.	2005-10-24 04:14:34 +00:00

XXX This change is incomplete for the mode_errors module because that module requires more substantial changes to make this work - I'll do that as a separate diff. compiler/globals.m Add a new global (and access predicates) that keeps track of whether we have any verbose error information that could be displayed if we recompiled with `-E'. compiler/mercury_compile.m Check the new global flag before prompting the user to recompile with `-E'. compiler/mode_errors.m Add an XXX comment about needing to respect the extra error info flag properly. compiler/accumulator.m compiler/add_clause.m compiler/add_pred.m compiler/add_type.m compiler/assertion.m compiler/check_typeclass.m compiler/det_report.m compiler/magic_util.m compiler/make_hlds_error.m compiler/modes.m compiler/module_qual.m compiler/modules.m compiler/post_typecheck.m compiler/purity.m compiler/stratify.m compiler/typecheck_errors.m Set the new global flag when we come across an error for which we have a verbose error message. tests/recompilation/*: tests/invalid/*: Update expected error files.	2005-09-14 05:27:11 +00:00
Mark Brown	3fc6b3f128	Change the representation of types in the compiler. ... Estimated hours taken: 30 Branches: main Change the representation of types in the compiler. We also add some support for handling kinds, which will be used later when we have a kind system. There are a number of places where kinds are not yet handled correctly -- we assume that all kinds will be `star'. Each of these locations is flagged with a comment that contains "XXX kind inference:". compiler/prog_data.m: Implement the new version of type (type). Change the definition of type_param to be a variable instead of a term, since all parameters must be variables anyway. Implement versions of varset.merge_* which work with tvarsets and produce renamings instead of substitutions. Renamings are more convenient than substitutions because we don't need to know the kinds of type variables in order to build the renaming, and in any case the substitutions shouldn't have anything other than variables in the range so renamings will be more efficient and safe. Define the type of kinds, and provide a couple of utility predicates to operate on them. compiler/prog_io.m: Parse type definition heads as a sym_name and list of type_params, rather than a functor. Handle this change in other predicates. Allow parse errors to be returned by get_with_type/3, and handle these errors. Remove parse_type/2. This predicate didn't do any processing, it just forwarded handling to convert_type/2. compiler/prog_io_typeclass.m: Change type_is_functor_and_vars to handle the new representation of types. In doing so, we retain the old behaviour that pure predicates pass this test, but no other pred or func types. This behaviour is arguably incorrect, but there is little point changing the behaviour at the moment. Instead we should remove these kind of restrictions entirely, but that should be done later. compiler/prog_io_util.m: Provide predicates to both parse and unparse types. We need to unparse types before printing them out, since we do a lot of special case handling when printing out terms and we don't want to duplicate this functionality for types. compiler/module_qual.m: Remove report_invalid_type. We now report ill-formed types during parsing. compiler/superhomogeneous.m: Handle errors from the parsing of type expressions. compiler/prog_out.m: Provide a predicate to convert builtin_types to their string names, and vice-versa. compiler/prog_type.m: Add a bunch of simple tests to use on types which may have kind annotations present. In such cases, types do not have a canonical representation so the simple handling of these tests is not what we want. (Note that these are only required in early phases. The kind annotations -- when they are implemented -- will be removed before type checking.) Consistently handle the application of renamings, substitutions and recursive substitutions to various data structures. compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: Implement mercury_output_type, mercury_format_type and mercury_type_to_string. These convert the type to a term before formatting -- the reason for this is so that appropriate parentheses are used when formatting operators. This results in some slight changes to error messages, which are reflected in changes to the expected output files in the tests. Remove the old version of mercury_type_to_string. Change the argument ordering of mercury_format_var to be consistent with mercury_format_type. (Other predicates in this module should probably be changed in a similar way, since this argument ordering is more amenable to higher-order programming. But that can be left for another change.) compiler/type_util.m: Implement type unification. The behaviour is much the same as the previous behaviour, except that we now handle apply/N types properly, and we also allow for kind annotations. Implement an occurs check for types. Remove the example definition of replace_eqv_type. It isn't used and would no longer work anyway even if it would have worked before. Add a tvar_kind_map field to ctor_defn. The functions type_info_type and type_ctor_info_type now return types with `void' as their argument, rather than the type that the type_info or type_ctor_info was for. Remove type_util.real_vars/2, since it no longer does anything different from prog_type.vars/2. Remove the commented out implementation of type_to_ctor_and_args/3. Its implementation is in prog_type.m, and has changed significantly in any case. compiler/add_clause.m: Move parse_purity_annotation/3 to prog_io_util.m. compiler/check_typeclass.m: Remove apply_substitution_to_var_list/3, since we now have predicates in prog_type.m to handle such things. compiler/continuation_info.m: compiler/trace.m: Use prog_type.vars/2 instead of type_util.real_vars/2. The two predicates have the same meaning now since type_infos don't contain any type variables. compiler/hlds_data.m: Add tvar_kind_map fields to hlds_type_defn and hlds_class_defn. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Add a tvar_kind_map field to pred_info. compiler/polymorphism.m: Add a tvar_kind_map field to poly_info. Remove unify_corresponding_types, which is no longer used. compiler/hlds_out.m: Use mercury_output_type/5 instead of term_io__write_term/4 and mercury_output_term/5. compiler/post_typecheck.m: Build the void substitution directly rather than building intermediate lists. compiler/recompilation.version.m: Use term__list_subsumes instead of type_list_subsumes, which now operates only on types. This follows up on what was suggested in an XXX comment. compiler/typecheck_errors.m: Use unparse_type/2 to format error messages. compiler/typecheck_info.m: Don't export write_type_with_bindings/5. It is no longer used outside of this module. compiler/*.m: Conform to the above changes. library/rtti_implementation.m: Fix a syntax error that went undetected in our previous implementation, and amazingly enough was compiled correctly anyway. library/term.m: Move the versions of term__unify, term__unify_list and term__list_subsumes that were implemented specifically for types to here. The version of term_unify that takes a list of bound variables (i.e., variables that should not be bound any further) is used by the subsumption check, which in turn is used by recompilation.version.m. tests/invalid/kind.err_exp: tests/invalid/tc_err1.err_exp: tests/invalid/tc_err2.err_exp: tests/misc_tests/pretty_print_test.exp: Update the expected output of these tests to match what we now do.	2005-09-12 05:25:01 +00:00

If the initial inst of X is bound(f), then an otherwise correct unification Y = g may fail if Y has been computed from X. (We don't whether it has, so we have to be conservative.)
