The Java backend was sometimes generating code like this to initialise RTTI
data structures:
foo_type_info.init(...,
/* cast */ new TypeInfo_Struct(bar_type_ctor_info), ...);
bar_type_ctor_info.init(...);
where `bar_type_ctor_info' is actually a type_info.
The problem is that the fields of the non-initialised `bar_type_ctor_info'
would be copied into the new TypeInfo_Struct object. The "cast" is of course
also unnecessary as the bar is already a TypeInfo_Struct.
This patch attempts to fix the problem in two ways:
1. Don't allocate a new TypeInfo_Struct object to emulate the "cast" unless the
value is actually a TypeCtorInfo_Struct, avoiding the problem of copying
uninitialised fields. Currently this is implemented by a runtime check because
the MLDS `cast' operation doesn't record the original type of the value being
cast.
2. Instead of relying on mlds_to_rtti.m to return a list of RTTI data
structures where sub-structures appear before the structures that reference
them, explicitly perform a topological sort. This should be more robust.
Unrelated change: use pre-allocated PseudoTypeInfo instances for common
variable numbers (1 through 5).
compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m:
Add a function to order a list of RTTI definitions as above.
Use cons instead of list.append in some places now that we can.
compiler/mlds_to_java.m:
Call the function to order RTTI definitions before outputing
the initialisations.
Call TypeInfo_Struct.maybe_new instead of allocating new
TypeInfo_Structs.
Generate code that uses pre-allocated PseudoTypeInfo instances.
java/runtime/TypeInfo_Struct.java:
Add a `maybe_new' method for "casting" TypeCtorInfo_Structs to
TypeInfos or returning the argument unchanged.
Delete a copy constructor; now unused.
Add some assertions.
java/runtime/PseudoTypeInfo.java:
Add static instances of PseudoTypeInfo.
tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
tests/hard_coded/java_rtti_bug.exp:
tests/hard_coded/java_rtti_bug.m:
Add test case.
