Instead of maintaining a stack of pending subpatterns which might or
might not contain expressions, we mark non-nesting regions during
pattern handling that might contain an expression. The implementation
remains largely the same; the difference is that callers are expected to
end a pending expression region as soon as possible, rather than wait
for the end of the subpattern. This makes it possible to emit
non-pattern insts during pattern handling, without the risk that they
will get caught in a pending expression region further up the stack.
Implements proposal #7016: `self` moves from the deduced implicit list
(`fn F[self: Self]()`) to the front of the explicit list. Its type may
be written explicitly (`fn F(self: Self)`) or omitted, in which case it
defaults to `Self` (`fn F(self)`, `fn F(ref self)`); `self` in the
implicit list is rejected.
Throughout checking, `self` is modeled as the first explicit parameter.
Because a method is just a function whose first parameter is `self`, it
can also be called as an ordinary function with the receiver passed
explicitly (`Type.M(obj, ...)`), not only as `obj.M(...)`. A new
`SemIR::CallArgParamPatterns` helper chooses the parameters matched
against the explicit arguments, excluding a leading `self` only when it
is supplied as a method-call receiver; arity checking, conversion, and
generic deduction use it. The resulting SemIR and lowering are
unchanged: `self` is still `call_param0`, and witnesses, thunks, and
vtables are unaffected.
An omitted `self` type is parsed as a `SelfBindingPattern` node with no
type expression; checking synthesizes the `Self` type so it behaves
exactly like `self: Self`. However, the exact spelling used must match
between a forward declaration and a definition, following #3763's rules
around declaration matching.
Generated functions, thunks, and C++ interop import/export build `self`
as the first explicit parameter, and the `self`-type override (e.g.
Derived->Base for a virtual override) applies to the explicit `self`.
Placement is validated by new diagnostics: `SelfInImplicitParamList`,
`SelfNotFirstParam`, and `SelfOutsideParamList`. The benchmark source
generator and the documentation adopt the `(self)` shorthand; the
prelude, the examples, and the test data are migrated in the following
commits.

This helps us move away from the clone-with-modifications approach to
thunking, which gets unwieldy as signatures get more complex.
---------

For now, hide `override fn`s from name lookup, so that the base class
version is always used, as the derived-class version does not have its
own vptr entry and so would not do the right thing if a further-derived
class adds a new override. This is implemented via a new access kind of
`Hidden`.
When checking the overriding function, pass in the expected `Self` type
and check the `self` parameter against that; the signature that we
generate for the thunk in the derived class is the base class signature
with the `self` parameter's type changed to the derived class.
When we generate a thunk for a virtual function, the thunk is assigned a
`virtual_index`, and the virtual function itself is not. When the thunk
makes a direct call to the virtual function, recognize this situation by
checking for a `virtual_index`, and perform a non-virtual call if there
isn't one.

for the design doc.
This also removes the default value of the `result_type_inst_id`
parameter of `HandleAction`, moves it before the action in the parameter
list, and documents it. This solves two problems:
- The default made it easy to forget, leading to unnecessary
`TypeOfInst` instructions.
- When it was present, putting it after the fairly "bulky" action
argument tended to make the callsite harder to read.
When importing a C++ function with an rvalue reference parameter, we
previously produced a Carbon value parameter. This would lead to the
toolchain believing it could pass the address of a non-expiring object
to the function, which would lead to a use-after-move.
Instead, we now map non-const rvalue reference parameters to Carbon
`var` parameters. This forces the object passed into C++ to be unique
and owned by the call. While that's not an exact match for C++ rvalue
reference parameters, given that it provides "always move" not
"conditionally move", it's the closest match we have at the moment.
- A function with a return declaration always has exactly one
`ReturnSlotPattern`, representing the whole return declaration (whereas
previously that was omitted for value and reference returns).
- The `ReturnSlotPattern` always has a subpattern with the same form.
`OutParamPattern` already plays that role for initializing forms, and
`TuplePattern` will play that role for tuple forms. This change
introduces `ValueReturnPattern` and `RefReturnPattern` to represent
value and reference return forms.
- As before, the `ReturnSlotPattern` has a corresponding `ReturnSlot`
that represents the output that is initialized by a `return` statement.
Its structure parallels the structure of the `ReturnSlotPattern`, so we
need `ValueReturn` and `RefReturn` insts that correspond to
`ValueReturnPattern` and `RefReturnPattern`.
This is a step toward supporting generic return forms, where the
`ReturnSlotPattern`'s subpattern may be an action: this change ensures
that evaluating the action for a specific form produces the same SemIR
as if the form were concrete to begin with. More speculatively, this
should simplify the implementation of `return` statements with compound
return forms.

Instead, use the inst category to select the right block stack. This
simplifies the API for adding insts, and in subsequent changes it will
enable certain inst kinds like `SpliceInst` to seamlessly function as
either procedural insts or pattern insts.
This works by generating two thunks, one in C++ and one in Carbon. For
example, given this input:
```c++
// Carbon:
fn Callme(f: f32) {}
// C++:
void F() {
// This will call `Callme__cpp_thunk`
Carbon::Callme(1.0);
}
```
These functions are generated:
```c++
// Carbon:
fn Callme__carbon_thunk(ref f: f32) {
// Call the target function.
Callme(f);
}
// C++:
// C++ declaration for the Carbon thunk.
void Callme__carbon_thunk(float& f);
void Callme__cpp_thunk(float f) {
// Call the Carbon thunk with args passed by reference.
Callme__carbon_thunk(f);
}
```
For now, all arguments are passed by reference, even if they are simple
types like pointers or i32.
Functions with non-void return types are not supported yet.
Remove special-case handling in conversion logic for C++ enum types,
synthesize a custom witness of `Core.Copy` using the `primitive_copy`
builtin function.
When parsing a pattern, if we encounter something that isn't pattern
syntax, try parsing as an expression instead. We only need one-token
lookahead to distinguish pattern syntax from expression syntax.
Track a precedence group through pattern parsing so that we can allow
different kinds of expressions in a top-level pattern (such as the
operand of `let`) and in a nested pattern (such as a subpattern of a
tuple pattern or within grouping parens). For example, we do not allow
`case if ...`, and for now I've chosen to also not allow logical or
relational operators at the top level of a pattern, so `case 1 + 1` is
OK, but `case 1 == 1` and `case true and false` require parentheses.
This decision should be ratified or revisited by a design proposal.
Very basic check support is also provided, only sufficient to form an
`ExprPattern` instruction and nothing beyond that. For now, all pattern
matching against an `ExprPattern` fails with a TODO error. To support
that, I've switched from calling `BeginSubpattern` in the parent handler
of a pattern and `EndSubpatternAs*` in the pattern handler itself to
calling both functions in parent handlers, with `EndSubpattern`
converting an expression into an expression pattern where needed.
Depends on #6976.

This follows up on a discussion about wanting to use `Any*` inst
clusters to handle boilerplate construction, with the issue that
`UncheckedLoc` use removes validation. Some context is at
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/6930#discussion_r2963157428.
This folds in `MakeImportedLocIdAndInst` because the logic is related,
particularly for `LocId` values which are `ImportIRInstId`, and it
eliminates questions of what the right function is to use.
This uncovers an error in the `NodeKind` associated with
`FormBindingPattern`. For now I'm just adding a TODO regarding that.

This is iterating on how `Destroy.Op` generates, to start adding body
capabilities. This changes the way the signature is created, and adds a
`CoreWitness` function kind so that mangling can prevent name
collisions. The result is that what _was_ `DestroyOp` is now
`Core.Destroy.Op` or, as can be seen in
toolchain/lower/testdata/interop/cpp/nullptr.carbon,
`_COp.<hash>:core.Destroy.Core` where `:core` is indicating that it's a
core witness (taking a note from `:thunk`).

Introduces `Context` and `SoftContext` messages, which can be introduced
through a `ContextBuilder`:
- The `Context` messages come before the diagnostic in the output.
- The first `Context` message steals the diagnostic level from the main
diagnostic, and turns the main diagnostic into a Note attached to the
context.
- A `SoftContext` message works similarly, but if it's preceeded by a
`Context` or `SoftContext` message, then it is dropped. This can be used
as a default/backup scope when nothing more interesting is provided up
the stack, such as in `TryEvalBlockForSpecific`.
The `ContextBuilder` is provided to a callback through
`Diagnostics::ContextScope`, an RAII type `AnnotationScope` but for
context messages.
This allows a high level operation to provide a context message like
"failed to identify facet type {0}" which will then be used as the error
if a diagnostic is produced during identification, with the latter
diagnostic attached as a note to explain why the contextual operation
failed.
In particular, this allows monomorphization errors (such as an array
bound being negative) to be attached to a higher lever operation instead
of being top-level diagnostics themselves, with the monomorphization
site being a note. This inverts the source code locations that appear in
the diagnostic, so that the top-level diagnostic points to the "user
code" which causes the monomorphization.
This is presented as an alternative strategy to #6753, which plumbed
diagnoser callbacks around to achieve the same goals.
We replace the diagnoser callbacks in type completion and operators with
ContextScope callbacks instead, which now provide better diagnostics for
monomorphization errors. Other callers to MakeSpecific do not yet have
ContextScopes introduced in order to turn monomorphization errors into
more interesting diagnostics.

Add support for compile-time functions. `eval fn` is analogous to C++
`constexpr`, and is evaluated at compile time when it has compile-time
arguments. `musteval fn` is analogous to C++ `consteval`, and requires
that its arguments be available at compile time and is always evaluated
at compile time. For now we require the modifier to match across
redeclarations of the function. The specific modifier syntax here is a
placeholder and not yet part of an approved design.
Limitations: Only very basic support for evaluation is provided. So far
there's no support for mutable state or `if` expressions, but otherwise
control flow and passing and returning values should work. Carbon
evaluation recursion is modeled by C++ recursion for now, so you can
overflow the toolchain stack easily. Functions that use in-place
initialization will generally not work yet, as they are modeled as
passing a non-compile-time-constant reference to a temporary to the
call.
Add missing categorization of `name_binding_decl` as `NotExpr` to match
other similar declaration instructions like `FunctionDecl`, so that we
can uniformly skip over them when they occur within function bodies.

I need to do more work on the custom witness functions. This is trying
to make it easier to see the differences between the approaches before I
resume work there (e.g. this helps flag a possible reason I was having
trouble switching definitions when it came to generics, I think those
are mishandled right now).
This changes the thunk test because it was doing
`CheckFunctionDefinitionSignature` in a different order from
`handle_function.cpp`, and I think `handle_function.cpp` is more
canonical here (changing that affects tests with defined functions).

For example, see toolchain/check/testdata/class/fail_incomplete.carbon
for the diagnostic changes. `IncompleteTypeInFunctionReturnType` should
remain, while the redundant `IncompleteTypeInFunctionParam` is removed.
Note I'm deliberately trying to validate the return type after other
parameters, because I think that's the better user experience. This does
also incrementally change IR.
Add a new builtin function `cpp.std.initializer_list.make` that takes an
array and returns a `std::initializer_list`, initialized to refer to
that array. When C++ initialization wants to perform a
`std::initializer_list`-from-array construction, synthesize a
declaration of a matching builtin function and use that to perform the
initialization.
Ideally we would specify this conversion as an impl of `ImplicitAs` in
the prelude instead of hardcoding it in the interop layer, but
unfortunately that's not currently possible, for various reasons -- we
can't make the conversion form-generic, we can't deduce the array length
from the initializer, and we can't deduce against the arguments of
imported C++ class templates yet -- so for now synthesizing a builtin
function on demand is the best we can do.

`ReturnTypeInfo` is built around the assumption that a function call
results in exactly one initializing expression, but with `ref` returns
there may be zero, and in the future composite return forms will enable
there to be more than one. This change removes some usages of
`ReturnTypeInfo`, and restructures the calling code to be prepared for
multiple initializing returns.
The main changes here are:
- Introducing `InitForm` and `RefForm` to represent initializing and
reference forms (the two return forms currently supported by the
parser).
- Introducing the `FormType` singleton inst to represent their type
(i.e. `Core.Form`).
- Emitting an inst representing a function's declared return form as
part of handling the function signature.
The return form inst is currently ignored. Subsequent PRs will expose it
in `SemIR::Function` and use it to determine the form of call
expressions.
This separates the return type from the return pattern, and replaces the
return pattern with a block of return patterns. This is a step toward
support for `ref` returns (where there's no corresponding return
pattern) and compund-form returns (where there may be multiple return
patterns).
We frequently want to operate on singletons. Per discussion, drop
`Singleton` to make the code shorter.
This started off as wanting to write `inst_id.is_error()`, but the
dependency relationship between ids.h and singleton_insts.h would
require some kind of delayed evaluation to allow the implementation to
remain in headers (which I suspect is helpful to have for inlining). I
could have added something like `IsErrorInst`, forward declared in ids.h
and defined in singleton_insts.h (which would always be included by
typed_insts.h), but the template approach felt like a decent balance
between (a) removing the boilerplate `::SingletonInstId`, (b)
understandability, (c) still visually mirroring if we immediately return
a singleton, and (d) flexibility for more than just `ErrorInst`. But TBH
I'd probably still have written `is_error()` if it didn't require
addressing the cross-header cycle.
Then I tried `SemIR::InstId::Is<SemIR::ErrorInst>`, which generally
worked with types but generated the complaint that it didn't shorten
*all* singleton uses. So pulling back on `::Is`, and instead just
dropping `Singleton`.
This is part of a broader plan to have noop destructor functions for
trivial destruction.
Note this emits a SemIR call (`%no_op: init %empty_tuple.type = call
%NoOp.ref() [concrete = constants.%empty_tuple]`), but not LLVM IR. My
thought was this was probably okay, since even though it'll be a little
spammy with destructor calls, the flipside is there'll probably already
be a fair amount for the name reference, and this at least shows when
the call is injected (and discarded).

context.cpp is getting large, so I'm looking at a few ways to cut out
clusters of functions. This felt like a logical cluster of functions to
move to their own file.
Note I have two commits in this PR: one moving the functionality to a
new file, and one specifically changing TypeCompleter to use out-of-line
function implementations. This is to assist reviewability.
High level, replacing `Id::Invalid` with `Id::None` and `Id::is_valid`
with `Id::has_value` for clarity, as discussed
[here](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/655578254970716160/1331664574545395794).
The `IntId` refactoring is needed together with `AnyIdBase` because it's
also used with `ValueStore`.
Note, trying to be careful not to rewrite `EnumBase::InvalidIndex`, or
`is_valid` in general (e.g., `IdKind::is_valid`).
I've tried to sequence commits here:
1. Automatic replacements:
- `((?:Id|Index)(?: |::|\(|Base(?:\(|::)))Invalid((?:Index)?\W)` ->
`$1None$2`
- `<invalid>` -> `<none>`
- `InvalidNodeId` -> `NoneNodeId`
- `/\*invalid\*/` -> `/*none*/`
- `id((?:_|\(\))(?:\.|->))is_valid` -> `id$1has_value`
2. Manual edits:
- In `int.h` and `int_test.cpp`
- `IntT` has `is_value`, which I'm renaming to `is_embedded_value`.
- Manual edits to comments in this file.
- `AnyIdBase` and `IdBase`
- Declaration of `is_valid` -> `has_value`, `InvalidIndex` ->
`NoneIndex`.
- In `ids.h` and `ids.cpp`
- `is_valid` -> `has_value`
- `// An explicitly invalid ID.` -> `// An ID with no value.`; similar
for index
- Various math on `InvalidIndex` -> `NoneIndex`
- Various mentions of "valid" in comments
- In `value_store.h`, for `IdT::Invalid`, plus one comment
- In `impl.h` and `tokenized_buffer.h`, we had different initialization
of `::None` values (versus `ids.h` syntax) that I fixed manually.
- Spot checks to compile
- Particularly where `is_valid` replacements didn't catch spots due to
different naming.
3. Autoupdate tests
4. verbose.carbon (NOAUTOUPDATE)
5. Comment spot checks
Note there are probably other mentions of "Invalid" that should be swept
up, but I'd like to argue for merging and separating out remaining
cleanup since this is so sweeping (and likely to hit merge conflicts
from churn). We'll probably have lingering mentions of "invalid" for a
bit regardless, just because there are uses of "invalid" in non-Id APIs.
When a generic requires a symbolic type to be complete, add a new
`require_complete_type` instruction to the generic eval block. During
monomorphization of such an instruction, require that type to be
complete.
`ids.h` and `ids.cpp` are the manual edits, everything else is
search-and-replace.
The full list of things moved is:
- `TypeId::TypeType`
- `TypeId::AutoType`
- `TypeId::Error`
- `ConstantId::Error`
This is to unblock removing `InstId::Builtin*`.
A good first-pass, at least. (abstract adapters are rejected with this
change, though pending further language design discussion)

Instead of stringifying types in the caller in some cases, add new types
to represent:
- `InstIdAsType`: an `InstId` diagnostic argument that represents a type
expression that should be included in the diagnostic
- `InstIdAsTypeOfExpr`: an `InstId` diagnostic argument that represents
an expression whose type should be included in the diagnostic
For these cases, we can produce more user-friendly descriptions of a
type than we can with a canonicalized `TypeId`. Add comments to
discourage using `TypeId` diagnostic arguments when one of the above can
be used, and move over existing uses where it's straightforward to do
so.
Move type stringification code to its own files and out of `SemIR::File`
to make `File` smaller and to further discourage the direct use of the
stringification logic.
Also update type printing to include the `` ` `` delimiters surrounding
the type. The intent is that we will eventually want to include other
information when formatting a type, like Clang does when printing a
typedef (`'string' (aka 'std::basic_string<char>')`), and such
formatting requires that the diagnostic machinery produces the `` ` ``s
itself.
There are a couple of cases where we really want to format valid Carbon
type syntax directly into a diagnostic, rather than an `aka` or similar,
because the diagnostic text includes part of the type itself, for
example: ``"consider using `partial {0}`"``. For such cases, a `Raw`
form of the diagnostic argument types is added: `TypeIdAsRawType` and
`InstIdAsRawType`. In principle we could instead use ``"consider using
`partial {0:raw}`"``, but our diagnostic machinery isn't set up for
that.
