This addresses/avoids the duplicate import of vtables.
I went through a few iterations/etc along the way and left them in the
commit
history for the PR in case any of them are useful to illustrate how I
got here,
or worth revisiting.
Essentially I ended up with a circularity in importing - importing the
class
imported the vtable_decl which imported the virtual functions - and then
pending
specifics of the virtual functions needed the self specific of the
enclosing
class which wasn't ready yet.
Adding ImportRef to the vtable_decl to break the cycle caused me trouble
when
naming the vtable_decl instructions - so I tried making the functions in
the
vtable unloaded ImportRefs instead. That worked, but meant that
importing a
class still was doing O(number of vtable entries) even if the vtable
wasn't
used.
So I revisited the lazy vtable_decl - figured out how to make the naming
work
(when building the vtable_ptr, even though the vtable_decl doesn't have
to be
loaded for the vtable_ptr, I force it to be loaded anyway, to load the
vtable so
it's usable by lowering, etc). And then I could go back to the old
non-lazy
loaded vtable entries (using some loaded ImportRefs in the cases where
we needed
them/had already adopted them).
Then thinking about the VtablePtr instruction, went back/forth on
exactly what
it needed - went from VtablePtr's member being a VtableDecl InstId, to a
ClassId, then back to a VtableId as it was before this patch.
Naming the instructions has one oddity, that the VtableDecl and
VtablePtr
instructions seem to need to add the pending name for the VtableId -
despite not
using the VtableId in their own name - should the inst namer be doing
this work
for parameters of instructions rather than requiring the inst to do it
deliberately? (or am I holding it wrong in some way?)

Change impls from `<interface>.impl` to `<self>.as.<interface>.impl`,
and *member* functions to `<parent scope>.<fn>` (non-member functions
exclude their parent scope). Stop special-casing builtin functions,
given the new naming scheme.
The purpose of this is to make it clearer when a member function is
being accessed and, if so, which member function. In particular, we
often access interface `Op` functions. The builtin function
special-casing was intended to help with that, but we still have lots of
`Op` functions. This particular approach should make the interactions
clearer.
This changes up queueing of block IDs a little because, in particular,
we need to process bodies of entities only after constants finish
processing. But, it should also result in less memory usage during
processing because it means we have less on the insts stack at any given
time, since we track a block rather than all instructions contained by
the block.
Some specific features:
* Use `SpecificFunction` for vtable entries for generic classes.
* Create specific constants for vtable entries in classes derived from
generic classes to reference the appropriate specific of the function
in the context of such a derived class.
* Create specific constants for vtable_ptrs for uses of specific generic
classes.

This changes `Destroy` to use an interface for its implementation.
Note that this change includes a lot of test updates. Even when
`Destroy` is a no-op, it still causes code generation as part of
determining that.
Originally I was trying to use ranges to cut down the scope of this, and
to a degree I think they have. But a flipside here is that cases where
no destructors should be generated -- particularly globals -- would be
needed to completely remove destructor calls. Even for ranges, the range
can often include the destructor placement. So I've shifted
frame-of-thought a little: accept a bunch of destructor churn, because
destructors are needed and will be prevalent. The verbosity is a feature
of the design to make desugaring apparent in IR, not a bug.
The goal was/is to reduce the overhead for vtables in generics - the
previous representation/prior to this patch caused a new vtable to be
created in every specific which isn't generally what we want for Carbon
generics (the whole specific/generic thing is meant to avoid creating
specific versions for things that can be a generic form parameterized by
a specific instead of manifest as a unique entity per specific)
So this moves vtables to a top level object (like functions, classes,
etc). Each dynamic class will have a vtable in this list.
Classes have a `vtable_ptr` instruction in them that points to the
vtable.
The actual generic support hasn't been implemented in this patch, as
I've been struggling with just getting this part of the migration going
& wanted to get it flushed out before adding the additional
complications.
It's possible more laziness when doing cross-file importing would be
suitable - for instance if we only need to reference the vtable from
another file, but don't need to know its individual contents, it may be
beneficial for the functions in the vtable to be import_refs (or to add
another layer of indirection - so it can be a single import_ref
all-or-nothing for the functions in the vtable).

Previously we created allocas for temporaries at whatever point in the
output LLVM function we'd reached. This would result in these being
dynamic allocas (performing a dynamic stack allocation), which is
inefficent and can lead to a stack overflow if it happens in a loop.
Switch to putting the allocas in the entry block instead, and instead
generate a lifetime start marker when we reach the point where the
temporary is introduced. We already did this for local variables; this
is just factoring out and reusing that code.
Update remaining parts of lowering, in particular the lowering of
aggregates, to handle lowering within a specific from a different file
than its generic. Look up information about a type in the current
specific and in its file rather than performing lookups for the type in
the generic and its file.
Remove or fix all remaining uses of raw `TypeId` in
lower/function_context and lower/handle*, so that the type from the
specific is consistently always used when lowering a specific function.

Adds min-preludes to a few more slowest tests, and adds them to most of
the lowering tests, with a few exceptions that make use of operators.
This take the runtime of file_test down from about 8s to about 7s on my
machine.
We add support for Negate on uints in the min-preludes.
This drops the wall clock time for running file_test from 10s to 8s on
my machine. There's many more tests to convert, as each one takes the
test from ~1s to ~100ms. Compiling the full prelude is a bit slow now
since #5653, and before that file_test was taking about 3.5s.
We introduce a few more flavours of min_prelude to support more tests.
When the binding pattern appears within a `var` pattern, convert to a
reference. Otherwise, convert to a value.
This gets the advent of code examples to produce the right answers again
:)

Entities, such as `Function`s may be created during phase 2 and need to
read the `Class`'s `scope_id` at that point, so it must be made
available earlier (in phase 2, rather than 3) when importing.
(thanks @zygoloid for explaining this all to me)
I'll look into other instances of this 3 phase lookup to see if they
have
similar bugs/if I can create test cases to tickle them as follow-ups.

- Track the `VarPattern` instruction on the `VarStorage` instruction so
that it's available for name mangling.
- Mangle global variables based on the first binding name within their
pattern.
- Give global variables external rather than internal linkage, except if
they have no bindings whatsoever in their pattern.
- To support lowering references to bindings nested within a global var,
such as for `var (x: i32, b: i32)`, add some basic initial support for
reference constant expressions. Treat a global `var` as a reference
constant, and treat an aggregate access into a reference constant as a
reference constant.
`IRBuilderBase::SetInsertPoint` weirdly replaces our debug location with
one copied from the new insertion point, so undo its damage after
calling it.
Also included: a couple of cleanups I made while tracking this down.
These will need to be emitted lazily, as we do for functions - this
addresses the crash/removes the impossible (because we don't have a
specific) non-lazy path.
Adds a `virtual_index` to `SemIR::Function` used to determine which
vtable slot
to use when calling the given function.
Then use that to lower the function call to use the vtable and
specifically the
relative vtable ABI to match the vtable entries.
Reuse LLVM global constants: do not generate a new llvm::Global constant
for a pointer to a global constant for the same Carbon const_inst_id,
reuse already generated one.
Adds a mapping to keep track of vtable LLVM IR decls/defs for use.
Adds the vtable_id to the vtable_ptr initialize instruction for lookup.
Adds emission of vtable declarations for use outside the file that
defines the vtable. (this isn't done lazily, it's done for any imported
class - it could be done lazily & maybe eventually has to be lazy to
handle generics)
One of the remaining three steps for proof-of-concept virtual function
lowering (the other two being: initializing vptrs to point to these
tables, and using the vptr+table at call sites).
Introduces a (placeholder?) mangling of vtables as ".$vtable" at the end
of the mangling of the class name.
Uses a scheme similar to clang's relative vtables - though those are
relative to the vtable slot, and this is relative to the start of the
vtable (seemed simpler? though I haven't looked at it in detail, perhaps
in lowering call sites I'll find the relative-to-vtable-slot is nicer,
easy enough to change).
Fixes#5186
With @zygoloid's kind assistance, this generalizes the existing
non-const lowering of ClassInit, that had previously only handled
InitializeFrom, to find other cases - such as a nested ClassInit used to
initialize a class member.
This refactors the `FindReturnSlotArgForInitializer` from
`check/convert.cpp` into `sem_ir/file.{h,cpp}` for use from lowering
(since lower doesn't depend on check, which I assume is an intentional
layering constraint - so figured it made sense to move it to sem_ir, and
found one or two similar-ish utility functions in `sem_ir/file.{h,cpp}`,
so figured that was a good spot)
Seems the instructions got emitted out of order & that caused problems
for lowering. This was because most of the initialization instructions
were added to a PendingBlock, but the vptr initialization instructions
were added to the (non-pending) block directly.
(I don't fully understand the pending stuff (is there a different test I
could/should write that demonstrates the vptr init instructions not
being discarded because they didn't go in the pending block (before this
patch)), or the out of order instruction problem (could we add more
robust checking for instruction ordering?) - but perhaps this is
adequate understanding for this bug fix at least)
Fixes#5094

This tripped over a lowering crash when a member function with self was
declared-but-not-defined, so that's why some test cases were updated to
have (empty) function definitions.
I'll follow-up with/look into a fix for the
self-declared-but-not-defined cases separately.

- The actual reason I started this: minor lowering updates in the golden
LLVM IR
- Process.inc changed enough to need a patch context update.
- https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/123126 added `proto_library`
uses without a `load`, which is broken in bazel 8
- Just commenting these out because we don't use them. I'll follow up
separately about a possible fix, but continuing to use `WORKSPACE` is a
bigger issue LLVM probably should address.
- Note this update is also triggering removal of `migrate_cpp`, in #4887
Non-entry-block allocas will allocate new stack memory each time they're
reached, resulting in leaking stack memory over time for allocas in a
loop. Move all such allocas to the entry block instead, and use an LLVM
intrinsic to mark when the lifetime of the variable actually begins.
This fixes a crash in lowering, at least (though only initializes the
vptr to
null for now) - certainly open to naming feedback on the instruction, or
the
exact semantics (we could have a global vptr instruction that's
referenced from
the existing instructions for reading globals, for instance).
I guess we'll want one type parameter for the vptr_init instruction,
which is
the type that this is a vptr for? (can do that here or in a follow-on
patch)
Goal is to reduce churn in names in test updates (by churning a lot of
them in this PR).

We considered a couple of other options for this:
* https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/4515 Keep the
`ElementIndex` numbering vptr-ignorant, and do +1 offsets as needed -
seems subtle/easy to miss
* https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/4517 Always have a
zeroth element in the object representation, make it zero-size in the
case of no-vptr - @zygoloid was concerned this would add overhead
especially to stateless objects used in type-trait-like things.
But currently moving forward with this direction - of initializing field
indexes with an invalid value until the end of the class definition,
then assigning field indexes during construction of the class's object
representation struct type. This direction might reinforce/help avoid
premature access to the object representation before the class is
complete, and give a single place where class layout is done (at class
completion) if we want to add more options there, such as class layout
optimizations, etc.
This patch still has problems with object initialization (that #4515
does not have/does address) but does address normal `obj.member` access
correctly.

For the few remaining uses of the builtin `i32` type, manually build an
`IntType(Signed, 32)` value instead. These are:
- The return type of `Run`.
- The type that int literals in an `if` expression are converted into.
- The type of an array index expression.
We should consider converting those three cases away from `i32` over
time.
---------
Co-authored-by: Jon Ross-Perkins <jperkins@google.com>
When an `IntLiteral` appears as an operand of an `if` expression,
convert it to `i32` for now, so that we don't reject things like `if
cond then 1 else 2` due to having a non-constant value of type
`IntLiteral`.
For tuple indexing expressions such as `(a, b).0`, convert the index to
type `IntLiteral`, not to type `i32`. This isn't strictly necessary to
do in this PR, but avoids the need to provide an `IntLiteral` -> `i32`
implicit conversion for `no_prelude` tests using this syntax.
We previously generated a `value_bind` instruction of the wrong type,
resulting in lowering building bad LLVM IR.
Also fix another issue exposed by this change, where we would import
constants without marking their types as complete, and then crash in
lowering while trying to lower them. This happens in particular for the
`FunctionType`s of functions in `ImplDecl`s. Address this by skipping
lowering for constants with incomplete types.
A small step to virtual functions - adding vtable pointers to the
layout, but not initializing or otherwise using them at this stage.
A few open design questions I'd love feedback on:
* Is this the right/good enough SemIR representation for now? This patch
adds a `is_dynamic` attribute to `SemIR::Class` and populates/flags it
based on the flag of the base class, or if any virtual function is
declared in the class (or, at least that's my intent). Some other
options include:
* Each `Class` could store a `ClassId` (or `TypeId`?) of the (possibly
indirect, possibly self) base class that is the first one that is
dynamic/has a vtable pointer
* Could make the property narrower, like `has vtable pointer` and have
it `true` only on the type that introduces the vtable - then derived
classes would have to walk their base classes to check if they're the
one that needs to define the vtable pointer or not
* Should the vtable be the first element in the type? If there's a
non-dynamic base type, we could have a layout that's `{<non-dynamic base
type>, vtable ptr, <derived members>}`? Derived types would still be
able to uniquely identify where their vtable pointer is just fine... -
and the vtable pointer is, in a sense, a member of that intermediate
type, so it does seem a bit strange to force it to the front - but I
guess it's probably more efficient in some ways?
Open to any other suggestions/advice/thoughts on the direction, etc.

Applies #4278 TEST_NAME substitution to tests. Note I've tried to
structure commits as:
1. Do all the replacements.
2. autoupdate (nothing else) -- this shows incorrect updates.
3. Fix up manually, including autoupdates to get back to original
output.
This seems to be enough to avoid naming collisions for functions in any
of the current test cases (verified by asserting that the name of the
`llvm::Function` matches the name passed to create it - not triggering
LLVM's numbering that happens when names collide)
It currently implements mangling for namespace scopes, class scopes, and
impls.
Nothing generic is mangled yet - haven't looked at how that works,
though evidently it's not covered by existing testing, I guess.
Follow-up change will document the current mangling algorithm in
`toolchain/docs/lower.md`

There's not much mangling happening yet - but Run -> main (and some
overloading numbering happening, maybe LLVM is doing that 'helpfully'
under the hood?) is enough to demonstrate this improvement/fix.

That's where LLVM decides to make a new name (name.number) when asked to
create a new global with the same name as an existing global.
It's not a valid mangling scheme - since the name won't be stable
between different compilations, but it is enough to make
single-compilation code build/run for now.
Seems to work with lldb ( https://pastebin.com/igKkNECm ), though gdb
has /some/ trouble with the paths (they aren't complete - just using the
filename directly, not providing the working directory - might be some
quick hacks that can help there).
Refactors a bunch of the SemIRDiagnosticConverter to be able to use that
from Lower to access source locations there to use in debug info.
I assume some of this is a bit jank/would need to be fixed/improved in
the future - like the context functor that's passed into ConvertLoc?
(not totally clear what that's for/what the debug info will be missing
out on in its absence, I could throw a FIXME in there if you like)

Still doesn't have line tables, so of limited value (at least now
this'll be enough that LLVM really generates debug info into the
resulting object file (whereas with only the compilation unit metadata,
LLVM will consider it empty and avoid emitting any of it)) - but another
step along the path.
This also doesn't attach the right source location to the functions -
I'll do that in a follow-up change because I think it'll require the
majority of the refactoring between driver and check to extract the
essential functionality sem_ir_diagnostic_converter, I think, to allow
retrieving source locations during lowering.
---------

This adds just the debug info metadata for Compilation Units (the top
level container of debug info) - but without anything in them, LLVM
won't emit them at all, so while this is testable at the IR level, it
isn't observable at the object level until more debug info is added.
A couple of starting points in this patch:
* A flag (`--debug-info`, seems to match the naming/style of other flags
in the carbon driver, though this is different from the naming
conventions of clang/gcc) that enables debug info when lowering. Open to
other names/approaches (on by default? historically debug info's been to
large/expensive to do this, so sticking with that precedent for now).
* Enabling that flag by default in the lowering tests - I do find the
churn on golden tests a bit rough, and adding more features to all the
tests means more churn, but it seems consistent with the approach so far
- keep an eye on this and perhaps revisit this if the churn gets too
annoying

Don't format the *type of* the function `F` as `"F"`. Instead use
`"<type of F>"`.
Also improve instruction naming for function and generic class name
values: name the value after the function or generic class, and add a
`.type` suffix to the type.
