This change partially implements [PR #7362], which revises how objects
are destroyed. It is a partial implementation for two reasons:
1. This change moves `Destroy.Op`'s current behaviour into
`Destroy.SubobjectDestroy`, but it doesn't add support for objects with
non-trivial destruction.
2. `Destroy.SubobjectDestroy` is a workaround for `require impls
SubobjectDestroy`. We aren't able to use the latter until the dependents
add their requirements' implementations to their own witness tables.
[PR #7362]: https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pulls/7362
The type `type` is now a `FacetType` inst with no constraints. This
brings the model implemented in the toolchain into better alignment with
the language design. The `SemIR::TypeType` struct remains as a scope for
holding the `TypeInstId`, `ConstantId`, and `TypeId` constants, but is
not an `InstKind` anymore.
The `TypeType` inst looks a lot like singletons, but there are many
`FacetType` insts so it doesn't quite fit that model. So we put it
alongside singletons with a fixed inst id but refer to it as a more
general "builtin" inst that is not a singleton.
`Namespace::PackageInstId` is similar, and we group it with `TypeType`
conceptually as another builtin instruction with a fixed id.
No conversion is needed anymore to use a `type` as a facet, since types
also have a `FacetType` type. This simplifies and removes a number of
helpers and branches throughout the code.
The `TypeType` inst is now part of the constant store, so we end up
printing it in the constants block in every test. But it's also named
`type` rather than `%type` to preserve the majority of existing
formatting behaviour, though this does look different from other
constants.
Assisted-by: Opus 5 was used to generate a first draft and validate the
refactoring. Though nearly everything non-trivial the tool wrote has
been modified or rewritten.
In the `EntityName` for a binding, preserve the `TypeInstId` describing
how the type was written. When a diagnostic refers to that type via
`TypeOfInstId`, use the type-as-written in the diagnostic rather than
the canonical type.

If a Carbon class overrides virtual functions from a C++ base class but
is never referenced from C++, it is never exported to Clang. During
lowering, `BuildVtable` then fails to find a `CXXRecordDecl` and crashes
when attempting to get the vtable from Clang's code generator.
Ensure dynamic classes with foreign vtables are exported to Clang when
completing the class definition in `CheckCompleteClassType`, and look up
`first_decl_id()` in `BuildVtable`.

This action was created to wrap any `MetaInstId` operand of an action
instruction. This served two purposes:
1) It had a special hook in `OperandIsDependent` to allow it to be
performed while it had a dependent operand (the reference to the
instruction in the generic).
2) It created a `specific_inst` so that the downstream action saw an
instruction in the specific instead of one in the generic.
These are both replaced: the special case in `OperandIsDependent` for
`RefineInstAction` is replaced by a special case for `MetaInstId`s in
general, and the `SpecificInst` is now created as part of performing the
downstream action, rather than as a separate step carried out
beforehand.
This simplifies the produced SemIR and reduces the number of splices
significantly. It also prepares us to handle actions like
initialization, where we don't actually want to create `SpecificInst`s
immediately in the location where the action is performed, because they
actually belong somewhere else in the IR.

We use the same conversion codepath to handle both qualification
conversions and derived-to-base conversions, because we allow both to be
performed at once. However, we were previously modeling the
qualification conversion as happening *first*, and producing a result
whose type is the target type of the overall conversion (that is, the
base class type). That led to bogus SemIR, where a `Derived` -> `const
Base` conversion would first have a "compatible" conversion from
`Derived` to `const Base`, *then* an access of the base subobject (of
type `const Base`, within an object of type `const Base`).
We now reverse the order: first we do a derived-to-base conversion,
which already has logic to preserve qualifiers, and then we do any
necessary qualification conversions on the result to reach the overall
target type.
In passing, we now skip forming the `as_compatible` instruction at all
for a pure derived-to-base conversion that has no qualification
conversion, simplifying the SemIR by one instruction in the common case.
Fixes#7731, at least under `--share-cpp-ast` which is expected to be
the future direction.
When --share-cpp-ast is enabled and any compilation unit has C++
imports, include all compilation units in the shared CppDomain inputs
and assign the domain to every unit. In ImportCpp, when a unit has no
direct C++ imports but is covered by a shared CppDomain, initialize
its C++ AST context and import namespace. This ensures units without
direct C++ imports have access to the C++ AST and code generator when
instantiating generics or referencing declarations from units that do.

Use a single `SemIR::Function` per `Core` interface method, whether it's
generated locally or imported. This prevents generating duplicate
functions, which lead to different types when the witness appears in a
`FacetValue` as part of a specific for a class.
We use a `CanonicalValueStore` of `GeneratedFunction` objects that allow
finding an existing FunctionId for a `Generated` special function before
(re-)generating it. Mangling for `Generated` functions is also moved to
use the values from the `GeneratedFunction`'s canonicalization key, so
that we have a consistent source of truth for the unique ID of a
`Generated` function across all files.
New tests are in
`toolchain/check/testdata/impl/custom_witness/destroy.carbon`.
Add basic support for lowering templates: we can now lower `SpliceInst`
in the case where the generic and specific are from the same file (and
we don't support importing templates from other files yet in general).
In order for this to work, lowering needs to be able to query the
expression category, and to handle instructions that appear to be
(template) constants in the generic but turn out to be non-constant in
the specific, so support for that is added.
Switch `type_of_inst` from being added as an action inst to being added
as a normal inst, since it's not an action and the old approach led to a
crash in lowering.
Replace `refine_type_action` with `refine_inst_action`, and generate a
`specific_inst` instead of an `as_compatible` to represent the specific
version of an instruction that's used as an input to a template action.
This gives us a place to handle other properties of the instruction that
might vary from generic to specific beyond its type, such as its
constant value and its expression category.
For now, we provide a non-template-dependent constant value to the
`specific_inst` in addition to the non-template-dependent type we have
traditionally provided. This doesn't seem to matter for any current
actions, but sets us up to better handle future actions. The
`specific_inst` representation also allows downstream consumers of the
instruction to track which specific they should be requesting
information from. Providing a correct expression category for
`specific_inst` will be handled in a future PR.
`TemplateInst` wraps another inst. If that inst is symbolic, it is
treated as a template by `OperandDependence`.
Use this to replace `CallCppTemplateAction` with the more general
`CallAction`.
Also add a default for `EqWith.NotEqual`.
Switch advent examples to use these named constraints, and also go
through all the other TODOs in the advent examples and fix the ones that
are trivially fixable now.
`GetCallee` is sometimes called on a spliced instruction, and is
checking its exact inst operand to see if it's a `BoundMethod`. This
fails if the `BoundMethod` is wrapped in another instruction, such as a
splice. Normally our approach for such a situation would be to
constant-evaluate the operand, but that doesn't work here because the
`BoundMethod` will be non-constant if its bound `self` is. So instead we
now step through splice instructions manually when looking for the
`BoundMethod`.
Calls with template callee or args can now be deferred via an
InstAction. This allows code like this to check:
```carbon
import Cpp inline '''
template<typename T>
struct C {};
''';
fn F(generic T: type) {
let unused c: Cpp.C(T) = Cpp.C(T).C();
}
```
This allows generated functions to have different forms for different
parameters, and by-ref or by-value return forms. As a byproduct, this
allows generated functions to supply a return type _inst_ ID when they
have one, which preserves things like location information.
Example:
```carbon
import Cpp library "<vector>";
class C(T: type) {
var v: Cpp.std.vector(T);
}
inline Cpp '''
void F() {
Carbon::C<int> c;
c.v.push_back(123);
std::cout << c.v.back() << std::endl;
}
''';
```
A new `CallCppTemplateAction` is used to delay performing the C++
template call until non-symbolic arguments are known.
Building a `for` loop looks `Core.Iterate` up twice: once for
`NewCursor` to make the cursor, and again for `Next` to advance it. A
range that implements neither failed both lookups and reported both, so
a loop over something that isn't iterable produced two errors saying the
same thing about the same expression.
The second lookup is skipped when the first already failed, which is
what `BuildBinaryOperator`'s `diagnose` parameter is for. The
`ErrorInst` it returns instead does not reach the produced SemIR: the
loop is abandoned on the error either way.

Fix a bunch of cases where we use the same external name to mean
multiple different things in the same test. We've historically gotten
away with this, but under `--share-cpp-ast`, it becomes an error, at
least if the entity is either defined in, or used from, C++ code.

It's not enough for field types of Carbon classes to be complete in
SemIR. If the field is exported to Clang, we also need the type to be
complete in Clang's AST, since Clang assumes it has a definition
available for the types of all fields of a complete class.
For certain kinds of error, clang's parser will succeed but produce an
expression marked as "contains error". Clang's constant evaluator
asserts if given one of those, so return early if we encounter one.
This is similar to the previously-added support for accessing generic
carbon classes from C++, but with the specific defined by Carbon, rather
than being derived from template args supplied by clang in
`LoadExternalSpecializations`.
Example:
```carbon
class C(T: type) {
var t: T;
}
alias A = C(i32);
inline Cpp '''
void F() {
Carbon::A a;
a.t = 123;
}
'''
```
The exported class was being inserted with a type inst ID as the key
(and looked up that way elsewhere), but when checking if the generic
class was already exported, the `first_decl_id` was being used. Make it
consistent, and opt for `first_decl_id` everywhere since it provides a
better location for diagnostics.
Implementing interface modifiers causes an infinite loop when generating
fingerprints because the witness value generates a fingerprint that's
dependent on something dependent on the witness value. We've debugged
this to the witness table's `elements_id` field.
This hack is a workaround for creating a new block type whose value is
not codependent with its identity.

If we find an overload set containing mulitple methods, discard any
non-const methods and try again. This allows libc++'s `std::vector` to
be iterated with range-based for.
`String.size` is likely to be a signed word-sized integer in the future,
(per a Discord conversation). Changing to `i64` now allows us to iterate
over a string's contents using `IntRange`.
Add `Core.CppCompat.[U]Long64` to represent a 64-bit long that is not
`i64`. Treat it as being "just slightly smaller than" `i64`, like we
treat `Core.CppCompat.LongLong64` as being "just slightly larger than"
`i64`, so that we get implicit conversions `Cpp.long` -> `i64` ->
`Cpp.long_long` on all targets.
This follows the direction of proposal #5448, and seems like the obvious
extension of the `[U]Long32` and `[U]LongLong64` types added in #6275
for targets of this "shape".

Clang treats "file not found" as a fatal error and stops emitting more
diagnostics after reaching it, so these tests don't work in
`--share-cpp-ast` mode if they are all in the same file. So split them
into distinct test files.
Make multiple imports of the same header only parse it once per C++
domain. Reuse of the same header in `--share-cpp-ast` mode now reuses
the representation.
Importing a Carbon file with C++ dependencies now makes those transitive
C++ dependencies in the same C++ domain visible too.

Instead of creating a CodeGenerator per CppDomain, and then crashing in
lowering when we try to consume the same llvm Module multiple times,
create a CodeGenerator for each CppFile within the domain.
For now, we mulitplex all of Clang's ASTConsumer output to all code
generators, which means that any strong external definitions within a
Carbon file (for example, in an inline `Cpp` fragment) will be emitted
to all output files in the same `CppDomain`, resulting in link errors
due to symbol redefinitions. This will be addressed later. But this
should be sufficient for Carbon compilations in which such symbols are
not defined.
We also don't yet attempt to classify which compilations will need C++
code generation, and instead create a clang `CodeGenerator` for every
Carbon file that has C++ imports. For `carbom compile`, only one Carbon
file will need code generation, and yet we still build multiple
`CodeGenerator` objects in general. Fixing this requires more plumbing
from the driver, and this will also be handled in a follow-up.

This isolates the C++ imports in different Carbon files from each other
in `--share-cpp-ast` mode, so that a Carbon file can only see the

Inject the name of a macro rather than its contents when computing its
expansion. If the macro refers to itself, it will not expand within its
own body, rather than expanding once.
Switching from `EnterTokenStream` to `EnterToken` exposed that our Clang
preprocessing environment was a little broken -- we reached the end of
the primary source file and starting tearing stuff down before we
actually finished parsing, which we were mostly getting away with before
but aren't any more. Enabled Clang's incremental processing mode to fix
this. This causes Clang to remain in the main source file when it
reaches EOF instead of popping it. This also causes the diagnostics for
invalid `module;` declarations to change, but in a way that seems not
really any worse than before.
Also slightly changes the diagnostics produced from macro expansion
failures. The new diagnostics are a bit more precise -- they now capture
the outermost level of macro expansion -- but we don't do a good job of
rendering the Clang snippet attached to the "in macro expansion" context
note yet, so the context looks a bit weird: we get two different
snippets attached to the same diagnostic.
In Convert, we require the source value's type to be compete so that we
can look for `base` classes and `adapt` relationships. However these can
only be present in a `ClassType`, so we only need `ClassType`s to be
complete.
Reduce the requirement in Convert to not complete types that are not a
`ClassType`, and which can not contain a `ClassType` as part of their
class.
Ideally we would only _only_ require the `ClassType` itself to be
complete, and only if we're looking for a base or adapt. However lower
depends on us completing all Convert source types that contain a class.
This seems to suggest we're lacking checks for complete types somewhere
else and Convert is making up for it. A TODO has been added. The
`toolchain/driver/testdata/compile/optimize/optimize_debug.carbon` test
is an example that CHECKs due to failing to verify the LLVM module if we
do not compute the complete type of all class-containing types in
Convert.
The critical step this PR is doing is to stop trying to complete a
`FacetType` when converting from a facet. This avoids trying to complete
a named constraint when converting `Self` inside that named constraint.
Doing so causes a cycle when the conversion of `Self` is performed in
eval of an `extend require` decl, since requiring the named constraint
to be complete re-evaluates the `extend require` decl again. A test is
added that crashed in an infinite loop before this change.
It also depends on #7584, which was intended to be an optimization but
is now load bearing. Because converting `Self` leaves an impl lookup
inst behind, and if that inst is re-evaluated inside impl lookup (by
forming a specific of a `require` decl through identify) then we have a
similar cycle.
During impl lookup, for each (generic) impl candidate, we form a
specific for that impl by deducing its generic arguments. Then we
compare the query interface against the impl's specific interface. That
comparison needs the deduced arguments applied to the impl's specific
interface. Previously we were doing this by getting the impl's
constraint facet type with the impl's specific applied (via
`GetConstantValueInSpecific()`) and then identifying that facet type
with the impl's deduced self.
Identify is a fairly expensive operation. It runs subst, trying to
replace `.Self` references. It walks named constraints. It collects
require declarations. We're looking at making it do _more_ in the future
too, including rewrite constraint resolution and collecting rewrite and
same-type constraints. For this reason we have a cache to make it cheap
on the second run, but it's still a very heavyweight operation to
involve in impl lookup, when all we want is to apply the impl's specific
to its target interface.
We almost have all the information we need to avoid the identification
step. We have the impl's specific after deduction. And we have the
SpecificInterface that the impl is targeting in the `Impl` struct. When
we form the specific for the impl itself, we resolve the declaration
block and form new constant values for all instructions in there, but
that does not cover the SpecificInterface that we're storing in the
`Impl` struct. So we add a new instruction to the impl's eval block,
which will be symbolic when the impl is generic and the target interface
depends on a generic parameter. And we store the `InstId` in the `Impl`
struct. This allows us to gets its constant value later with the impl's
specific applied. From that constant value we can then pull out the
SpecificInterface that the impl is targeting.
`abstract fn` was exported to C++ as a plain virtual function rather
than a pure virtual one, so the class wasn't abstract and could be
instantiated from C++.
Abstract functions no longer get a thunk since there is no definition to
call. The tests are prefixed with `fail_` since an abstract class still
errors on `Core.Destroy` regardless.
A method declared with `self` does not modify the object, but it was
exported to C++ as a non-const member function, so calling it on a const
reference would fail.
```carbon
class C {
fn Get(self);
}
inline Cpp '''
void F(const Carbon::C& c) {
c.Get();
}
''';
```
```
error: 'this' argument to member function 'Get' has type 'const Carbon::C', but function is not marked const
```
Import already maps `f() const` to `fn f(self)`, and this PR implements
the same behavior for exporting. No ref-qualifier is added, since that
maps to `ref self`, so that is unchanged.
`GetThisArg()` now builds `this` from the method instead of the parent
record, so that it picks up the method's const-qualifier.
Point symbolic witnesses into `.Self` written inside an impl decl at the
impl that is being declared. This is tricky because the impl does not
yet exist. So we use a new instruction `ImplSelfWitness` which _will_ be
replaced by the `ImplWitness` once it becomes available. The
`ImplSelfWitness` acts like a symbolic witness, except it does not
perform lookup, since we know which impl we will get a witness from.
This prevents us from finding other impls when performing lookups into
`.Self` in an impl decl, which produces incorrect/incoherent results.
Instead of building one Clang `ASTContext` per compilation, the
`--share-cpp-ast` flag causes us to build a single `ASTContext` and
share it across all contexts. One new abstraction is added: `CppDomain`
represents the Carbon-side view of a Clang AST that might be shared
across multiple `SemIR::File`s. This object owns the Clang instance and
the AST.
For now, we have no isolation between the C++ state exposed to different
Carbon compilations, and we have no multiplexing of generated LLVM IR
from C++ into different Carbon compilations, so the mode is not usable
yet. The plan is to keep it behind a flag until it's ready.

Added method_alias.carbon test so that the class export code in
`ExportNameScopeToCpp` is tested. Refactored `ExportClassToCpp` so that
`ExportNameScopeToCpp` can reuse that code.
Moved the `identifier_info` code in `ExportNameScopeToCpp` into the
namespace block, because the name scope's name ID is not valid for
classes.
Added a call to `CompleteType` for classes exported via
`ExportNameScopeToCpp`, otherwise a "queried property of class with no
definition" assert is later reached (when adding methods) in the call
chain `BuildCppToCarbonThunkDecl` -> `DeclContext::addHiddenDecl` ->
`CXXRecordDecl::addedMember` -> `CXXRecordDecl::data`.
The check for a specific in `TryMapClassType` is unnecessary;
immediately after it calls `ExportClassToCpp`, which has the same check.
The latter also has a `context.TODO`, which provides a clearer error.
Also improved the `LocId` in `ExportClassToCpp` to use the location of
the first decl rather than the empty location of the class type. This is
the same fix as
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7533, just applied a
little more broadly. This makes the `context.TODO` above point at the
class rather than the start of the source file.
Add a `return_type_id` field to `FunctionInfo` in
`toolchain/check/cpp/export.cpp`. As with the `explicit_params` field,
`ExportFunctionSpecializationToCpp` updates this to the return type in
the specific.
Refactored `BuildCppFunctionDeclForCarbonFn` into
`BuildCppFunctionDeclForNonGenericCarbonFn` and
`BuildCppFunctionDeclForGenericCarbonFn`, with `BuildCppFunctionDecl`
containing shared code.
The `generic_type_impls_interface.carbon` test is updated to include a
generic return type.
The specific location's not ideal (rather than the open curly, or
semicolon for a declaration - the two locations should be the `class`
and then the class name), but the same as we do for functions for now &
enough to get by.
This specifically also fixes a crash I found due to dtors being
generated without a location (because implicitly created functions would
use the class's location), creating a function call without a debug
location, which fails the LLVM IR verifier.
Split up the CppRange interface into smaller parts, with the intent of
improving the diagnostic quality and making the implementation easier to
understand.
This also makes the implementation details of the CppRange machinery
private, which breaks one of the existing tests; that test is split into
two files, one which tests the low-level machinery works, and another
that tests the resulting prelude behavior.
This change exposes a crash in `where` expression handling, where we
would perform a substitution that creates a new `SpecificConstant` that
refers into a region of a generic that has never been resolved. Fix that
by resolving the definition region of a generic if eval sees a
`SpecificConstant` that refers into it. This is usually not necessary
because something else should have resolved that region first, but that
doesn't happen here.

We can't use a `CallExpr` to call a constructor; use a
`CXXConstructExpr` instead. While this fixes the crash and gets us past
the initial constant evaluation, we still can't map the constant value
back into Carbon, so this doesn't actually make constexpr constructors
work yet. But it does stop Clang from crashing.
