Fix a bug in the termination analyser that caused it to ignore
Estimated hours take: 5.5 Branches: main Fix a bug in the termination analyser that caused it to ignore pragma terminates/does_not_terminate declarations. BUGS: Delete the description of the bug regarding does_not_terminate pragmas. compiler/error_util: Add a predicate describe_several_pred_names/3. compiler/term_errors: Add an error type indicating that the cause of non-termination was inconsistent termination pragmas. compiler/termination: Fix a bug that caused pragma terminates and pragma does_not_terminate declarations to be ignored. Check that SCCs in the call-graph have not been annotated with termination pragmas that are inconsistent.

Use sub-modules to structure the modules in the Mercury compiler directory.
The main aim of this change is to make the overall, high-level structure of the compiler clearer, and to encourage better encapsulation of the major components. compiler/libs.m: compiler/backend_libs.m: compiler/parse_tree.m: compiler/hlds.m: compiler/check_hlds.m: compiler/transform_hlds.m: compiler/bytecode_backend.m: compiler/aditi_backend.m: compiler/ml_backend.m: compiler/ll_backend.m: compiler/top_level.m: New files. One module for each of the major components of the Mercury compiler. These modules contain (as separate sub-modules) all the other modules in the Mercury compiler, except gcc.m and mlds_to_gcc.m. Mmakefile: compiler/Mmakefile: Handle the fact that the top-level module is now `top_level', not `mercury_compile' (since `mercury_compile' is a sub-module of `top_level'). compiler/Mmakefile: Update settings of *FLAGS-<modulename> to use the appropriate nested module names. compiler/recompilation_check.m: compiler/recompilation_version.m: compiler/recompilation_usage.m: compiler/recompilation.check.m: compiler/recompilation.version.m: compiler/recompilation.version.m: Convert the `recompilation_*' modules into sub-modules of the `recompilation' module. compiler/*.m: compiler/*.pp: Module-qualify the module names in `:- module', `:- import_module', and `:- use_module' declarations. compiler/base_type_info.m: compiler/base_type_layout.m: Deleted these unused empty modules. compiler/prog_data.m: compiler/globals.m: Move the `foreign_language' type from prog_data to globals. compiler/mlds.m: compiler/ml_util.m: compiler/mlds_to_il.m: Import `globals', for `foreign_language'. Mmake.common.in: trace/Mmakefile: runtime/Mmakefile: Rename the %.check.c targets as %.check_hdr.c, to avoid conflicts with compiler/recompilation.check.c. |

Add preliminary support for a new pragma:
Estimated hours taken: 15 Add preliminary support for a new pragma: :- pragma foreign_code(LanguageString, .... <same args as c_code>). This is intended to be the eventual replacement of pragma c_code. Presently the only valid language is "C". The existing pragma c_code is simply turned into pragma foreign_code. pragma foreign_code is not a supported pragma at the moment. There are several other changes that are intended (for example, foreign_code will be impure by default). This change also changes the HLDS goal pragma_c_code/7 to pragma_foreign_code/8 where the extra argument is the foreign language. Any code currently generating output for pragma C code simply checks that the foreign language is set to "c". Since this is the only alternative of the type foreign_language, it will always succeed. However when new alternatives are added it should be fairly easy to find where the changes need to be made. Some type names and predicate names have also been updated, however there are many more that haven't yet been touched. compiler/prog_io_pragma.m: Accept the new syntax. Turn the old syntax into the new item. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Change pragma_c_code/7 to pragma_foreign_code/8. Define the foreign_language type. compiler/llds.m: Change user_c_code/2 to user_foreign_code/3. compiler/*.m: Update the rest of the compiler to handle these types. Make a few small changes to update variable names, predicate names and type names. |

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

These changes make var' and term' polymorphic.
Estimated hours taken: 20 These changes make `var' and `term' polymorphic. This allows us to make variables and terms representing types of a different type to those representing program terms and those representing insts. These changes do not *fix* any existing problems (for instance there was a messy conflation of program variables and inst variables, and where necessary I've just called varset__init(InstVarSet) with an XXX comment). NEWS: Mention the changes to the standard library. library/term.m: Make term, var and var_supply polymorphic. Add new predicates: term__generic_term/1 term__coerce/2 term__coerce_var/2 term__coerce_var_supply/2 library/varset.m: Make varset polymorphic. Add the new predicate: varset__coerce/2 compiler/prog_data.m: Introduce type equivalences for the different kinds of vars, terms, and varsets that we use (tvar and tvarset were already there but have been changed to use the polymorphic var and term). Also change the various kinds of items to use the appropriate kinds of var/varset. compiler/*.m: Thousands of boring changes to make the compiler type correct with the different types for type, program and inst vars and varsets. |

Add code to parse terms from strings rather than from streams.
Estimated hours taken: 24
Add code to parse terms from strings rather than from streams.
The original intention for this change was twofold:
to increase expressiveness and to improve efficiency.
However, for the moment I have given up on the goal of
improving efficiency.
library/io.m:
Add io__read_file_as_string/{4,5}, for efficiently
reading a whole file into a single string.
Add io__read_from_string/5, for reading terms of
any type from a string.
(Should that instead be named string__read instead?)
library/string.m:
Implement string__substring/4 more efficiently,
using `pragma c_code' rather than by calling
string__right(string__left(...)).
Export string__unsafe_index/3, and add new exported
predicate string__unsafe_substring/4 -- these
are versions of string__index and string__substring
that don't check for range errors. They are
needed to get reasonable efficiency when dealing
with very large strings.
library/string.nu.nl:
Add Prolog implementations of string__substring
and string__unsafe_substring.
library/lexer.m:
Add lexer__string_get_token_list/{5,6}, for parsing
tokens from a string. This required adding
`string_' versions of most of the lexical analysis routines.
XXX lots of code duplication, I'm afraid.
XXX the string versions are not as efficiency as they
could ideally be.
library/parser.m:
Add new predicates parser__read_term_from_string/{4,6}
and parser__parse_token_list.
compiler/bytecode_gen.m:
compiler/error_util.m:
compiler/fact_table.m:
compiler/term_errors.m:
Minor changes to use term__context as an ADT rather than
as a concrete data type.
In addition, I made the following changes, which I am NOT committing.
compiler/prog_io.m:
Change to use io__read_file_as_string and
parser__read_term_from_string.
(Not committed because the existing method is
in currently more efficient.)
library/term.m:
Add new alternative term__detailed_context to the term__context type.
This alternative can record both the start and end of a term rather
than just the end.
(The lexer now has almost all the necessary support for detailed
contexts, but enabling it would have some potentially significant
efficiency costs, and curently the parser uses only single contexts
rather than ranges; so currently this is not used.)

Add support for nested modules.
Estimated hours taken: 50
Add support for nested modules.
- module names may themselves be module-qualified
- modules may contain `:- include_module' declarations
which name sub-modules
- a sub-module has access to all the declarations in the
parent module (including its implementation section).
This support is not yet complete; see the BUGS and LIMITATIONS below.
LIMITATIONS
- source file names must match module names
(just as they did previously)
- mmc doesn't allow path names on the command line any more
(e.g. `mmc --make-int ../library/foo.m').
- import_module declarations must use the fully-qualified module name
- module qualifiers must use the fully-qualified module name
- no support for root-qualified module names
(e.g. `:parent:child' instead of `parent:child').
- modules may not be physically nested (only logical nesting, via
`include_module').
BUGS
- doesn't check that the parent module is imported/used before allowing
import/use of its sub-modules.
- doesn't check that there is an include_module declaration in the
parent for each module claiming to be a child of that parent
- privacy of private modules is not enforced
-------------------
NEWS:
Mention that we support nested modules.
library/ops.m:
library/nc_builtin.nl:
library/sp_builtin.nl:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Add `include_module' as a new prefix operator.
Change the associativity of `:' from xfy to yfx
(since this made parsing module qualifiers slightly easier).
compiler/prog_data.m:
Add new `include_module' declaration.
Change the `module_name' and `module_specifier' types
from strings to sym_names, so that module names can
themselves be module qualified.
compiler/modules.m:
Add predicates module_name_to_file_name/2 and
file_name_to_module_name/2.
Lots of changes to handle parent module dependencies,
to create parent interface (`.int0') files, to read them in,
to output correct dependencies information for them to the
`.d' and `.dep' files, etc.
Rewrite a lot of the code to improve the readability
(add comments, use subroutines, better variable names).
Also fix a couple of bugs:
- generate_dependencies was using the transitive implementation
dependencies rather than the transitive interface dependencies
to compute the `.int3' dependencies when writing `.d' files
(this bug was introduced during crs's changes to support
`.trans_opt' files)
- when creating the `.int' file, it was reading in the
interfaces for modules imported in the implementation section,
not just those in the interface section.
This meant that the compiler missed a lot of errors.
library/graph.m:
library/lexer.m:
library/term.m:
library/term_io.m:
library/varset.m:
compiler/*.m:
Add `:- import_module' declarations to the interface needed
by declarations in the interface. (The previous version
of the compiler did not detect these missing interface imports,
due to the above-mentioned bug in modules.m.)
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/intermod.m:
Change mercury_compile__maybe_grab_optfiles and
intermod__grab_optfiles so that they grab the opt files for
parent modules as well as the ones for imported modules.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Minor changes to handle parent module dependencies.
(Also improve the wording of the warning about trans-opt
dependencies.)
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
Ignore `:- include_module' declarations.
compiler/module_qual.m:
A couple of small changes to handle nested module names.
compiler/prog_out.m:
compiler/prog_util.m:
Add new predicates string_to_sym_name/3 (prog_util.m) and
sym_name_to_string/{2,3} (prog_out.m).
compiler/*.m:
Replace many occurrences of `string' with `module_name'.
Change code that prints out module names or converts
them to strings or filenames to handle the fact that
module names are now sym_names intead of strings.
Also change a few places (e.g. in intermod.m, hlds_module.m)
where the code assumed that any qualified symbol was
fully-qualified.
compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
Move sym_name_and_args/3, parse_qualified_term/4 and
parse_qualified_term/5 preds from prog_io_goal.m to prog_io.m,
since they are very similar to the parse_symbol_name/2 predicate
already in prog_io.m. Rewrite these predicates, both
to improve maintainability, and to handle the newly
allowed syntax (module-qualified module names).
Rename parse_qualified_term/5 as `parse_implicit_qualified_term'.
compiler/prog_io.m:
Rewrite the handling of `:- module' and `:- end_module'
declarations, so that it can handle nested modules.
Add code to parse `include_module' declarations.
compiler/prog_util.m:
compiler/*.m:
Add new predicates mercury_public_builtin_module/1 and
mercury_private_builtin_module/1 in prog_util.m.
Change most of the hard-coded occurrences of "mercury_builtin"
to call mercury_private_builtin_module/1 or
mercury_public_builtin_module/1 or both.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Add llds_out__sym_name_mangle/2, for mangling module names.
compiler/special_pred.m:
compiler/mode_util.m:
compiler/clause_to_proc.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Move the predicates in_mode/1, out_mode/1, and uo_mode/1
from special_pred.m to mode_util.m, and change various
hard-coded definitions to instead call these predicates.
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Ensure that the type names `type_info' and `typeclass_info' are
module-qualified in the generated code. This avoids a problem
where the code generated by polymorphism.m was not considered
type-correct, due to the type `type_info' not matching
`mercury_builtin:type_info'.
compiler/check_typeclass.m:
Simplify the code for check_instance_pred and
get_matching_instance_pred_ids.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Disallow directory names in command-line arguments.
compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Add a `--make-private-interface' option.
The private interface file `<module>.int0' contains
all the declarations in the module; it is used for
compiling sub-modules.
scripts/Mmake.rules:
scripts/Mmake.vars.in:
Add support for creating `.int0' and `.date0' files
by invoking mmc with `--make-private-interface'.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document `--make-private-interface' and the `.int0'
and `.date0' file extensions.
doc/reference_manual.texi:
Document nested modules.
util/mdemangle.c:
profiler/demangle.m:
Demangle names with multiple module qualifiers.
tests/general/Mmakefile:
tests/general/string_format_test.m:
tests/general/string_format_test.exp:
tests/general/string__format_test.m:
tests/general/string__format_test.exp:
tests/general/.cvsignore:
Change the `:- module string__format_test' declaration in
`string__format_test.m' to `:- module string_format_test',
because with the original declaration the `__' was taken
as a module qualifier, which lead to an error message.
Hence rename the file accordingly, to avoid the warning
about file name not matching module name.
tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.m:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.err_exp:
Regression test to check that the compiler reports
errors for missing `import_module' in the interface section.
tests/invalid/*.err_exp:
tests/warnings/unused_args_test.exp:
tests/warnings/unused_import.exp:
Update the expected diagnostics output for the test cases to
reflect a few minor changes to the warning messages.

tests/hard_coded/parent.child.m:
tests/hard_coded/parent.exp:
tests/hard_coded/parent2.m:

Instead of requiring the writer of error messages to provide a list
Estimated hours taken: 1.5 error_util: Instead of requiring the writer of error messages to provide a list of words, allow them to provide strings that the code in this module will break down into words at white space.

I've just commented it out, since getting the error message is more useful than a call to error/1. |

Delete all the obsolete code using magic numbers (e.g. 10000)

This old hack, whereby make_hlds.m assigned mode numbers based on the priority given to the determinism of each mode, is not needed anymore. It is no longer needed because modecheck_call.m now chooses the mode that is the best fit (based on a variety of factors) rather than just picking the first allowable mode. tests/invalid/duplicate_modes.err_exp: The output for this test changed, in insignificant ways: the order in which it reported the duplicates modes changed, because the mode numbers had changed. |

Fix some bugs:
Estimated hours taken: 0.5 compiler/term_errors.m: Fix some bugs: - when printing out the mode number, it needs to take it mod 10000 to strip off the "priority". - In some cases, termination analysis infers that a procedure can loop, but the list of reasons why is empty. This should never happen, and so term_errors.m was calling error/1 in this situation, but in practice it does happen, so I've changed term_errors.m to print out an error message with "for unknown reason(s)" in that case. We still ought to fix the problem, but this change at least makes it easier to track down, since the error message says which procedure the problem is occuring for. |

A rewrite of termination analysis to make it significantly easier to modify,
Estimated hours taken: 60
A rewrite of termination analysis to make it significantly easier to modify,
and to extend its capabilities.
compiler/error_util.m:
A new file containing code that makes it easier to generate
nicely formatted error messages.
compiler/termination.m:
Updates to reflect the changes to the representation of termination
information.
Instead of doing pass 1 on all SCCs and then pass 2 on all SCCs,
we now do both pass 1 and 2 on an SCC before moving on to the next.
Do not insist that either all procedures in an SCC are
compiler-generated or all are user-written, since this need not be
true in the presence of user-defined equality predicates.
Clarify the structure of the code that handles builtins and compiler
generated predicates.
Concentrate all the code for updating module_infos in this module.
Previously it was scattered in several places in several files.
Put all the code for writing out termination information at the
end of the module in a logical order.
compiler/term_traversal.m:
A new file containing code used by both pass 1 and pass 2 to
traverse procedure bodies.
compiler/term_pass1.m:
Use the new traversal module.
Clarify the fixpoint computation on the set of output supplier
arguments.
Remove duplicates from the list of equations given to the solver.
This avoids a det stack overflow in lp.m when doing termination
analysis on options.m.
If an output argument of a predicate makes sense only in the absence
of errors, then return it only in the absence of errors.
compiler/term_pass2.m:
Use the new traversal module. Unlike the previous code, this allows us
to ignore recursive calls with input arguments bigger than the head
if those calls occur after goals that cannot succeed (since those
calls will never be reached).
Implement a better way of doing single argument analysis, which
(unlike the previous version) works in the presence of mutual recursion
and other calls between the recursive call and the start of the clause.
Implement a more precise way of checking for recursions that don't
cause termination problems. We now allow calls from p to q in which
the recursive input supplier arguments can grow, provided that on
any path on which q can call p, directly or indirectly, the recursive
input supplier arguments shrink by a greater amount.
If an output argument of a predicate makes sense only in the absence
of errors, then return it only in the absence of errors.
compiler/term_util.m:
Updates to reflect the changes to the representation of termination
information.
Reorder to put related code together.
Change the interface of several predicates to better reflect the
way they are used.
Add some more utility predicates.
compiler/term_errors.m:
Small changes to the set of possible errors, and major changes in
the way the messages are printed out (we now use error_util).
compiler/options.m:
Change --term-single-arg from being a bool to an int option,
whose value indicates the maximum size of an SCC in which we try
single argument analysis. (Large SCCs can cause single-arg analysis
to require a lot of iterations.)
Add an (int) option that controls the max number of paths
that we are willing to analyze (analyzing too many paths can cause
det stack overflow).
Add an (int) option that controls the max number of causes of
nontermination that we print out.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Use two separate slots in the proc_info to hold argument size data
and termination info, instead of the single slot used until now.
The two kinds of information are produced and used separately.
Make the layout of the get and set procedures for proc_infos more
regular, to facilitate later updates.
The procedures proc_info_{,set_}variables did the same work as
proc_info_{,set_}varset. To eliminate potential confusion, I
removed the first set.
compiler/*.m:
Change proc_info_{,set_}variables to proc_info_{,set_}varset.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Change the code to handle the arg size data and the termination
info separately.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Change the internal representation of termination_info pragmas to
hold the arg size data and the termination info separately.
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Change the external representation of termination_info pragmas to
group the arg size data together with the output supplier data,
to which it is logically connected.
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Change the code to accommodate the change to the internal
representation of termination_info pragmas.
compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:
Fix some documentation rot, and clarify some points.
Document termination analysis.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document --term-single-arg and the new options.
Remove spaces from the ends of lines.
library/bag.m:
Add a new predicate, bag__least_upper_bound.
Fix code that would do the wrong thing if executed by Prolog.
Remove spaces from the ends of lines.
library/list.m:
Add a new predicate, list__take_upto.
library/set{,_ordlist}.m:
Add a new predicate, set{,_ordlist}__count.
tests/term/*:
A bunch of new test cases to test the behaviour of termination
analysis. They are the small benchmark suite from our paper.
tests/Mmakefile:
Enable the new test case directory.

Modify termination analysis to use a linear inequation solver
Estimated hours taken: 35 Modify termination analysis to use a linear inequation solver written in Mercury rather than invoking an external 3rd party one. compiler/term_pass1.m: Remove all the code for writing out the system of equations, invoking the solver and parsing the output. Add code to convert the system of equations into the format expected by the solver, and call the solver. compiler/term_errors.m: the 'lpsolve_failed' constructor goes from arity 1 to arity 0. modify the output of error messages accordingly. compiler/lp.m: NEW file. Contains the linear inequation solver based on the standard simplex method. |

Add termination analysis to the compiler. The termination analysis
Estimated hours taken: 500 Add termination analysis to the compiler. The termination analysis annotates each procinfo structure with termination information stating whether each procedure is guaranteed to terminate. Add transitive intermodule optimization to the compiler. Transitive intermodule optimization uses .trans_opt files to store optimization information. The difference between .trans_opt files and .opt files is that .trans_opt files may depend on other .trans_opt files, whereas .opt files may only depend on a .m file. compiler/termination.m: New file. The main module which controls the termination analysis. compiler/term_pass1.m: New file. This file implements the first pass of the termination analysis which attempts to derive relationships between the relative sizes of variables. This information is used by term_pass2.m compiler/term_pass2.m: New file. The second pass of the termination analysis attempts to prove that each predicate or function in the program is guaranteed to terminate. compiler/term_util.m: New file. Contains utilities which are used in various stages of the termination analysis. compiler/term_errors.m: New file. Contains predicates for printing out error messages produced by termination analysis. compiler/trans_opt.m: New file. This module contains predicates for both reading in and writing .trans_opt files. compiler/globals.m: compiler/handle_options.m: compiler/options.m: Various modifications to handle the new options. Some of the new options imply other options, and the `--termination-norm' option is a string option which needs processing. compiler/hlds_goal.m: Added a comment that the list(uni_mode) subfield of construct, and the unify_mode subfield of unify are not necessarily valid when the unification applies to higher order terms. compiler/hlds_out.m: Added code to output termination information, as well as code to print out the new markers. compiler/hlds_pred.m: Added the termination subfield to the proc_info structure and added code to support it. Also added support for the new markers. compiler/make_hlds.m: compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m: compiler/module_qual.m: compiler/modules.m: compiler/prog_io_pragma.m: Added support for the new pragmas, `termination_info', `teminates', `check_termination' and `does_not_terminate'. compiler/prog_data.m: Added the new pragmas to the pragma_type. Also reformatted the type declarations to conform with the coding specifications. compiler/prog_io.m: Reformatted some code and comments. compiler/mercury_compiler.m: Added code to call the termination analyser and to call the predicate which creates .trans_opt files. doc/reference_manual.texi: Documented the termination analysis and the new pragmas. doc/user_guide.texi: Documented the new options. |
