Start recording the clang::DeclContext* -> InstId mapping for use in
later operations.
The test update includes removing the initial fail_* test because I
hadn't thought about the use of namespace aliases as a way to test for
the presence of a namespace without the failure caused by not finding
the thing inside the namespace.

Initialize the `Diag` field `EvalResult` to get notes from clang when
`EvaluateAsConstantExpr` fails, then emit them using clang's diagnostic
infrastructure.
Also set valid source locations in a couple places, otherwise clang's
diagnostics code crashes.
The diagnostic requires bit widths to be multiples of 8, but the test
used a mask of 3 (lower two bits), which only enforces multiples of 4.
Use a mask of 7 so values like 12 incorrectly pass the check.

This commit creates an instance for any associated types in an interface
with a custom witness table. This unlocks interfaces designed for C++
interop that rely on arbitrary return types. For example,
`CppUnsafeDeref` becomes usable as of this commit.
This commit may have also implemented support for non-type associated
constants, but since we're lacking a practical test case, they're still
marked as TODO for the time being.

The `CompleteTypeWitness` can be concrete. This avoids making a symbolic
`CompleteTypeWitness` value which itself has a concrete
`CompleteTypeWitness` value with the same operands.
Instead of injecting code to declare an `operator new`, generate AST for
it directly. In order to use this, directly generate a `CXXNewExpr`
rather than asking Clang to build one.
This is less of a hack, and doesn't visibly leak an `operator new`
declaration that inline C++ code or template instantiations might see.
It also avoids generating a warning in C++26 and later that the
`constexpr` declaration of `operator new` is used but not defined.

When a `var` is not explicitly given an initializer, initialize it in
one of two ways:
* If its type implements the new interface `Core.Default`, call
`Core.Default.Op` to initialize it.
* Otherwise, if its type implements `UnformedInit`, leave it in an
unformed state. For now, this is always an uninitialized state, but that
will change in the future.
* If neither of those apply, the `var` declaration is ill-formed.
This is a step towards implementing leads decision #6739 and proposals
#257 and #5913.

`LookupCppImpl` handles exactly one function ID, so core interfaces with
multiple associated entities were regarded as unsupported. This commit
adds support for a single associated function with a single associated
constant.
Note: associated constants are still TODO.

This moves the LValue path code from macros.cpp to constant.cpp, so that
it can be called from `MapAPValueToConstant`. TODO messages are updated
accordingly to avoid referring to macros. Added a constexpr pointer test
to `constexpr.carbon` to show the result of this change.
Add a clang::ExternalASTSource to begin exposing Carbon entities to
Clang - initially only a single `Carbon` top level namespace.
Subsequent work will add Carbon entities to this namespace.
Likely this CarbonExternalASTSource will be refactored into another
file, tie into/reference SemIR::File and CppFile, etc eventually - but
that'll wait for future patches.
If there's mechanical problems with the current implementation - how I'm
creating the new NamespaceDecl, etc - I'm all ears. It's very much in
the "it seems to work" state, not much more than that.
This does break Clang Modules (header modules, C++20 modules,
precompiled headers, etc) since they're implemented as an
ExternalASTSource as well, and Clang's ASTContext only supports one
ExternalASTSource at a time. To fix that regression we'll need to
implement some kind of ExternalASTSource multiplexing support - either
in Clang or Carbon (unclear which).
This regression of modules support can be observed by the following:
`A.h`
```
inline void f1() { }
```
`module.modulemap`
```
module A {
header "A.h"
export *
}
```
`test.carbon`
```
import Cpp inline '''
// Hardcode the pragma to ensure this isn't silently falling back to
// textual inclusion.
void f2() {
f1();
}
''';
```
```
carbon compile test.carbon -- -I . -fmodules -fimplicit-modules -fmodules-cache-path=module_cache
```
I wrote a `file_test` test for this, but it doesn't /quite/ work because
`file_test` provides an in-memory filesystem for tests to make them more
hermetic, but Clang's Filesystem abstrtaction is for reading only - so
the module that's written out successfully can't be found when it needs
to be read back in - so the test doesn't pass as a baseline. Clang does
have support for `llvm::vfs::OutputBackend` which allows virtualizing
output - which I guess we could tie together with the InMemoryFilesystem
we use for input to make such a test work. But I guess that's not worth
the effort here?

Using a named constraint inside itself is problematic:
- If there were not require decls written above, it identifies as an
empty set. This makes `Z(Self)` essentially disappear in the identified
facet type, which produces "no use of Self" diagnostics while the user
can see a use of Self in the code.
- It won't include require decls that are written after, and so `require
T impls Z` won't actually enforce that `T` impls all of `Z`.
Previously this was an error because using the named constraint would
require it to be identified, and it's not identified until it is
complete. But this will change in proposal #6902. So that proposal also
includes changes to preserve diagnostics for incorrect use of a named
constraint before it's complete, which is implemented here.
Discussed in open discussion [on
2026-03-12](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mjllGO3ZCL4qGt9uJHUtcxKoHAGEY7Y999ie4EtBWB8/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.1dvbbrp5a6t3).
The new tests exposed a bug where we're not copying named constraints in
a facet type on the RHS of `where .Self impls` into the facet type on
the left, which is now fixed. The
`fail_require_impls_incomplete_self_in_period_self_impls.carbon` test
would not diagnose its error without this fix.
This is so that the last file is more likely what we're trying to
compile in tests. Just splitting out the churn-y change of reordering.

Iterators, smart pointers, optional, and expected types depend on
`operator*`. This commit adds `CppUnsafeDeref` as a core interface, with
an associated function, so that the compiler can dereference
user-defined C++ types.
Things not implemented in this commit:
* `operator*` overload resolution
* SemIR lowering
---------

Use the object parameter type when creating a reference to the thunk
parameter so that we create an xvalue rather than an lvalue for the
`*this` expression in the thunk.
Previously we forced a temporary materialization, resulting in it being
treated as an ephemeral reference expression. This change allows
```carbon
var x: Class = {} as Class;
```
even when `Class` is not copyable.
In C++ overload resolution, when mapping a Carbon value expression into
a C++ argument, produce a const-qualified argument where possible. This
has two effects:
* Overload resolution does not consider non-const-qualified member
functions to be viable for a prvalue self any more. This is desirable
since such functions are not actually callable with a prvalue self, and
permits overload resolution to pick a const-qualified overload instead.
* Overload resolution does not allow a Carbon value expression to be
passed to a C++ `T&&` parameter any more. This is desirable since it's
not correct to move from a value expression. Previously we allowed this
and moved from the value!
This case is redundant: when deducing against a runtime parameter
pattern, the type is all that matters, and the type is added to the
deduction earlier. Additionally deducing the same argument against
parameter's subpattern just creates duplicate work, because the
subpattern has the same type.
Add an `IntFitsIn` interface with a custom witness, such that `T impls
IntFitsIn(U)` if `T` is an integer type all of whose values fit
losslessly into the integer type `U`. Use it to constrain implicit
conversions between integer types.
So far, this has not been extended to the
`CppCompat.[U]{Long32,LongLong64}` types, only to `Core.Int(N)` and
`Core.UInt(N)`.

Support assigning to a variable through an imported macro
Example:
```carbon
import Cpp inline '''
int v = 1;
#define m v
''';
fn F() {
Cpp.m = 2;
}
```
This uses the `CARBON_KIND_ANY(AnyImportRef, auto import_ref):` syntax
that seemed to be favored [on
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/655578254970716160/1478486848207720478).
This converted uses in the `sem_ir` directory to show it works
initially, then added `check` for full coverage plus validating the
`SemIR::` namespace discard.
Note in inst_namer.cpp, AnyBindingPattern includes FormBindingPattern
which wasn't previously handled.
I'm disabling clang-format because I think it formats with readability
issues, e.g.:
```
#define CARBON_KIND_ANY_EXPAND_AnyBinding(X, SEP) \
X(::Carbon::SemIR::AliasBinding) \
SEP X(::Carbon::SemIR::FormBinding) SEP X(::Carbon::SemIR::RefBinding) \
SEP X(::Carbon::SemIR::SymbolicBinding) \
SEP X(::Carbon::SemIR::ValueBinding)
```
Since `SEP` is typically a comma, it's also a nuisance to treat as an
argument to `X` (which could get better results).

Treat the initial sequence ofarguments in a call to a C++ function up to
and including the last argument that is a type or template as being the
explicit template arguments for the call, rather than rejecting them
because they can't be converted to the parameter types.
Implements the current direction on leads issue #6768, except that no
syntax for explicitly annotating an argument as being a template
argument is provided.

For integral and float types, `TryEvaluateMacroToConstant` now calls
`MapAPValueToConstant` to directly convert from an APValue, rather than
converting the `APValue` to an expression and importing it with
`MapConstant`.
`MapConstant` is still used, but only for string literals and nullptrs.
Since it's only used by `TryEvaluateMacroToConstant`, moved it to
`macros.cpp` and removed the code for other types of expressions.
The self value can be a facet-value or a facet-value-as-type. The self
value used in `require` decls is the former. The the self value used for
identifying the facet type is the latter, we end up with two different
required interfaces in the identified facet type: one for each self
value.
Always canonicalize the self value to a facet value in identification.
Then dedupe the list of extend interfaces when constructing the
`IdentifiedFacetType` before counting them. And then impl lookup needs
to canonicalize its query self for comparing with the result from the
`IdentifiedFacetType`.
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`).

Defer creating the CppContext until we have all of its components, so
that we know they're not null. Don't track the action on the context,
since it's not a reliable way of getting back to the compiler invocation
on failure. Don't flush the diagnostics emitter from the emitter
destructor since the derived class emitter will already have been
destroyed at that point. Distinguish between clang setup failing and
clang merely producing errors, and don't connect the check context to
clang if clang setup failed.

When initializing `.base` in class initialization, use `partial Base` as
the destination type rather than `Base`. Treat `partial Base` as not
being abstract even when `Base` is.
Allow conversion from a `partial T` initializer to a `T` initializer.
Store the vptr while performing the conversion. Do not store the vptr
when performing a `partial T` initialization, only when performing a
non-partial `T` initialization.
This allows us to capture the location at which a type literal was used,
even in the cases where we don't otherwise need to create a new
instruction to represent the type such as for `char` or `str`.
The logic used to build the underlying type is now marked as desugaring.
For cases such as `iN`, this causes the call to `Core.Int` to no longer
be added as a dedicated IR instruction, and instead its constant value
is used directly as the value of the `type_literal`. This results in
this being on balance a reduction in the size of the IR.
This also fixes a crash in C++ interop when using a `char` literal as a
template argument. The crash was caused by the template argument not
having an associated location when mapping to a C++ location. See
changes to check/testdata/interop/cpp/template/type_param.carbon for an
example that used to crash before this change.
Update alias handling to allow an alias to point at any type literal,
reinstating support for aliases for type literals such as `bool` and
`i32` that had previously worked but stopped working when we
transitioned those types to being defined in the prelude. See changes to
toolchain/check/testdata/alias/builtins.carbon.
All the test changes other than the two mentioned above are mechanical
autoupdate changes switching to the new instruction.
