This type has the same object representation as `T`, but always uses a
pointer type as its value representation. No other semantics are
provided for it yet.
Based on #5948. A couple of tricky parts:
* When generating the C++ side of the thunk, we are given a pointer to
the location to emplace the return value. The only mechanism C++
provides to perform this emplacement is using placement `operator new`,
which requires a library function in the `<new>` header. We handle this
by declaring that library function ourselves, and rely on Clang not
actually needing a definition for it (which the standard library owns).
* On the Carbon side of the thunk, we want to form an initializing
expression as the result of the call. We don't have a way of expressing
in SemIR that an initializing expression performs its initialization by
storing through a pointer, so this PR adds a new initializing
instruction, `InPlaceInit`, to model an initialization that's performed
opaquely in-place.
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?)

Don't convert to f64 until we know that's the type that we actually
want. Also reimplement the conversion from RealId to FloatId to perform
an exact conversion with a real check for overflow, rather than
performing an approximate conversion via the host `double` type.
Unfortunately, LLVM doesn't expose its integer mantissa and exponent to
APFloat conversion, so we convert the RealId back to a string for now.
The LLVM conversion also detects overflow only if the literal would
round to having an out-of-range exponent, not if the literal is outside
the range of values of the type as the Carbon design expects. It's not
clear to me which rule we actually want here, so for simplicitly I'm
using the LLVM rule for now.
In preparation for adding other floating-point types beyond f64.
* Rename the type.
* Change lowering to lower FloatLiteralType values as the placeholder
`{}` value we use for literals instead of as an LLVM f64.
* Change eval to convert the type as part of a floating point
conversion, so that lowering can lower converted constants properly.
For now we still represent a value of FloatLiteralType as a
double-precision APFloat. (That will need to change so that we can
losslessly convert literals to f80 / f128 values, and so that we can
convert literals to f32 values without double-rounding.)
This makes all `.Self` references in a facet type canonically the same
(which will remain true iff they refer to the same `Self` type in the
future), removing the need to do more complex comparisons between them
using the EntityName, interface, and index. This allows the comparison
of types containing `.Self` references to be done correctly regardless
of where the `.Self` appears, as such type expressions will all be
canonically equal if they otherwise equal now, regardless of whether
they are written in the context where `.Self` could have seen different
`Self` facet types.
In order to retain access to constraints on a base `.Self` facet type,
in the case of applying `where` to an existing facet type, we:
- Give the base facet type as a `RequirementBaseFacetType` constraint so
that eval of `WhereExpr` can find and copy all the constraints off of
it.
- Introduce eager/early rewrite constraint resolution, which allows a
constraint to eagerly resolve access to earlier rewrite constraints
(`where .A = () and .B = .A` is eagerly transformed into `where .A = ()
and .B = ()`) before the full constraint resolution step. This allows
use of rewrite constraints in larger type expressions, such as `where .A
= () and .B = C(.A)` and `C` will know that the argument is `()`.
toolchain/check/testdata/builtins/char/basics.carbon and
toolchain/lower/testdata/builtins/char.carbon are probably the most
interesting tests here. The parse tests is required because this adds a
new node kind, and we need coverage of it; but the attached info is
minor. There's a fair amount of test churn here because I'm adding the
Core.Char and Core.CharLiteral types as new singletons.
My intent here is that `CharId` is always a unicode code point, even
when the type is a `Char` and thus must be a single UTF-8 code unit
(single byte). This mainly means the stored value of a `CharValue` can
be printed internally without knowing the type.

Add a new type, `custom_layout_type`, representing a struct type whose
size, alignment, and field offsets can be manually controlled. Use this
as the object representation type for imported C++ class types (which
also includes struct and union types), allowing us to model C++ class
type layouts. In passing, also add support for incomplete C++ class
types, mapping them into incomplete Carbon class types.
Map C++ fields into Carbon field declarations, allowing direct access to
C++ fields from Carbon. So far, no support is added for base classes nor
anonymous struct or union declarations; those will be added in
subsequent PRs. Also, we don't map C++ access control into Carbon yet,
so all C++ fields are accessible regardless of their access control.
For now we still use a `struct_type` as the object representation for
empty C++ classes, in order to continue to support our existing tests
that convert `{}` to empty C++ class types. This is temporary and should
be removed once we support interop with C++ class initialization.
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).

This adds something similar to the level of `const` support - that it's
a type, but not the conversions and limitations on usage that are
needed.

This was originally needed to support constant evaluation of name
expressions, but that's now done in a different way.
This is actually a step toward treating all patterns as constants. The
upcoming change will do so in a slightly different way, and so it will
simplify the review to start from a baseline where patterns are never
constant.
We eliminate the `FacetAccessWitness` instruction, which would sometimes
immediately evaluate to a concrete `ImplWitness`, and sometimes remain
symbolic. This instruction is now replaced by `LookupImplWitness` in all
cases. To support the same use cases, when it is evaluated,
`LookupImplWitness` will look in the self value if it's a facet value,
and attempt to return a concrete `ImplWitness` from it before looking
for an `impl` statement.
The `LookupImplWitness` instruction's value is now canonical, even when
it evaluates to a symbolic `LookupImplWitness` instruction, by
canonicalizing the self value of the lookup query. This canonicalization
unwraps `FacetAccessType` and `FacetValue` instructions to get to an
underlying canonical facet value. However we must preserve and use the
non-canonical query while evaluating the instruction in order to look
for a concrete `ImplWitness` if the query self value was a concrete
`FacetValue`. The canonicalization ensures that symbolic witnesses
obtained from a facet value are compatible with those obtained from an
impl statement, as long as the self types originate from the same
canonical facet value though they may have been narrowed.
Member access now unconditionally does a `LookupImplWitness()`
operation, instead of only sometimes doing the lookup for a final impl
declaration.
`EvalImplLookupResult` is marked `[[nodiscard]]` so that we don't
construct it and forget to return it. This was a mistake made at one
point during the creation of this PR. And the `has_concrete_value()`
method no longer has a precondition that `has_value()` is true, since we
want to look for a concrete result only in the new use of
`EvalImplLookupResult` returned from lookup into the query self facet
value.
The TODO from `FacetAccessWitness` evaluation is addressed by ensuring
the index of the witness in the `FacetValue` comes from the required
interfaces of the `FacetValue`'s type, and that the type (a `FacetType`)
is the same facet type used in the query to construct the `FacetValue`'s
witness block. This is made possible by eliminating the
`FacetAccessWitness` indirection. The lookup into a `FacetValue` happens
while evaluating `LookupImplWitness` and it does so directly on the self
value. This gives a consistent view of the witness set and the facet
type, as they both come from the same instruction.
All of this with 400 less lines of code. :)

This allows us to import the table for a given impl only once, while we
can import many ImplWitness instructions with different specifics for a
generic impl.
For example in convert_facet_value_to_narrowed_facet_type.carbon we see
that a single witness table is imported for the BitAnd interface, with
multiple witnesses (for different specifics) imported and sharing the
same table.
The ImplWitnessTable now contains a back-link to the Impl the witness is
for, allowing inst namer to name that interface in the textual semir,
and allowing the interface to be found when debugging from a witness.

Instead of using None, use an explicit ImplWitnessTablePlaceholder in
the witness table for entries that have not yet been populated, to aid
debugging. This would ensure they would show up very clearly in the
SemIR. This uncovered some `<invalid>` in the SemIR under erroneous
conditions that have now been turned into `<error>`.
Add the ImplWitnessAssociatedConstant instruction which wraps the
canonical instruction found from the constant value of the rewrite
constraint. This ensures that we have an instruction inside the eval
block for a generic impl declaration for each rewrite constraint's
value, which allows Subst to be performed to rewrite the symbolic
constant of the ImplWitnessAssociatedConstant instruction to associate
it with the generic. This will prevent the otherwise orphaned symbolic
constant of the rewrite's value from being used which can not have a
specific applied to them.
While applying the new insts in InitialFacetTypeImplWitness(), rearrange
the function to use less nesting. And avoid using entity names from
imported instructions (as we found is not effective in deduce.cpp) and
use a local instruction by going through the constant value.
This PR is part of the effort to allow a rewrite to name a generic
parameter, such as `impl forall [T:! type] T as Z where .X = T`, however
tests for this involve a final impl so that we can typecheck that the .X
value is a specific T, so the tests will come with that work. This piece
is split off because introducing new instructions causes a lot of SemIR
churn, and I wanted to get that done separately.
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)
