Geoff RomerandJon Ross-Perkins 6dba8ee111 Remove index fields from ParamPatterns (#6815)
This is a step toward removing the index from `InitForm`, so that equal
form values always have equal representations.

Richard Smith 41dd256d56 Support for initialization of classes with abstract base classes. (#6802)
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.

Richard Smith f9ab963bd6 Add a type_literal instruction to represent syntactic type literals. (#6781)
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.

Jon Ross-Perkins e2bdbe8507 Make semir scope labels only print when non-empty (#6780)
This shifts logic a little so that empty top-level scopes are printed
less often. This affects imports mainly for now, but should be expected
to affect the soon-to-be-added generated scope more significantly.

Geoff Romer 3c324e4877 Add category to parameter format, and share some code. (#6730) 2026-02-13 22:20:05 +00:00
Geoff RomerandRichard Smith e5b05a1fac ExprCategory for guaranteed-in-place initializing expressions (#6623)
The primary change in this PR is to split the `Initializing` expression
category into separate `ReprInitializing` and `InPlaceInitializing`
categories, depending on whether initialization uses the types
initializing representation, or is guaranteed to be in place. It also
rationalizes and documents the SemIR-level semantics of those categories
(including where #5545's "ephemeral entire reference" category will
fit), and introduces two new inst kinds to close gaps exposed in the
process.

Some additional secondary changes:
- Consistently format the storage arguments of initializers with `to`,
regardless of whether initialization is in-place, and document the `to`
notation.
- Rename some inst kinds and functions, and restructure some of the
code, for clarity and consistency with the new documentation.
- Resolve a TODO to handle more category conversions in
`CategoryConverter`, in order to make it easier to reason about category
conversions.

See #6588 and the review history of this PR for background.

Richard Smith 093d5072db Add support for using C++ user-defined conversions via interop (#6646)
When performing an implicit conversion to or from a C++ class type, look
for a C++ implicit conversion, and if that conversion involves a
function call (to a constructor or conversion function), call that
function to perform the conversion.

Note that this is just a first pass at supporting implicit conversions.
There are a lot of other things that can happen in a C++ implicit
conversion, such as aggregate initialization or `std::initializer_list`
initialization that aren't handled here. In addition, we intentionally
leave all standard conversions to Carbon to perform, so that we will
reject conversions such as `i32 -> unsigned` that C++ would select but
Carbon considers to be invalid.

Also support `as` conversions. These are treated analogously, but
perform direct-initialization instead of copy-initialization, so they
also find `explicit` constructors and conversion functions.

In order to give good diagnostics, also track the original C++ source
location for imported C++ functions on the imported version of the
function.

Geoff Romer 4329a83e4c Form-aware textual format for return parameters and arguments (#6588)
The key changes are:
- Function output parameters are now prefixed with `out`, and more
consistently formatted as named parameters.
- Function and inst output arguments are now written as part of the inst
form, rather than as one of the inst arguments.

As a drive-by fix, this also changes `Temporary::storage_id` from
`DestInstId` to `InstId`, because it doesn't represent an output
parameter of the `Temporary` inst itself.

Richard Smith 935ccce2a6 Fix lowering of imported global variables. (#6567)
*   When a C++ static data member is imported, evaluate its address to a
    constant like we would for a namespace-scope variable.
*   When an imported variable is used in a way that doesn't require its
    type to be complete, emit the variable with an opaque type instead
    of skipping it (and potentially crashing later).

unique return slot for a function only makes sense in `returned var`
handling.

Remove the unnecessary two-phase creation of variables in C++ import. We
don't need to create a placeholder and overwrite it here, so stop doing
so.

Also, add the patterns to the imports table and don't create a
NameBindingDecl. The NameBindingDecl would never be used for anything.
This matches what we do when importing a Carbon variable, and improves
the formatted SemIR output.

Jon Ross-Perkins c5eba90317 Change Destroy to use a CustomWitness instead of a blanket impl (#6512)
Pursuant to recent decisions on #6124, switch `Destroy` to use a
`CustomWitness` for its implementation. Right now this is manufacturing
no-op implementation functions on each lookup, which obviously isn't
ideal but is intended as a first pass. I'm mostly trying to find the
right balance between updating the approach to reflect new decisions,
while still breaking apart work in a way.

The `CoreInterface` logic is intended to build on `CoreIdentifier`
support. We have a number of additional interfaces that require
specialized logic, and that'll extend pretty far with C++ interop, so it
seemed easiest to have a generic function for it. That's what's
replacing the logic inside C++ interop that was doing string comparisons
(which could have already been moved to `CoreIdentifier`, I just missed
it in my first pass).

This adds `CustomWitness` support because the `Destroy` witnesses can be
imported cross-file. `CustomWitness` was previously only used for C++
types, which don't yet support import, which is why that wasn't
previously an issue. The addition of `query_specific_interface_id` is
similarly needed in order to get correct sorting of witness blocks when
imported.

This PR also removes builtin constraint logic (note this is in a
separate commit to help review; it's not a separate PR because it's
difficult to split apart without tests breaking). This had been made
generic with the expectation that destroy, copy, move, and conversions
would all need related support. Under the new decision, we are not going
to do blanket impls and will instead just manufacture a `CustomWitness`
for everything.

A lot of SemIR fingerprints change, but that's probably because the
addition of `Destroy` on core classes is yielding structural changes.

Özgür a4b5ab9df9 Reject unqualified private access to base members (#6521)
### Description
Currently, unqualified access to private members of the base class
compiles without error. This is due to `LookupUnqualifiedName` calling
`LookupQualifiedName` internally with `access_info` parameter set to
`std::nullopt`. This causes `IsAccessProhibited` to return `false`
immediately.
This PR fixes this issue.

### Changes
- Added a check where if the `access_info` is null and the current scope
we are looking is an extended scope (parent), initializes the
`access_info` with `highest_allowed_access` set to `Protected`.

Jon Ross-PerkinsandDana Jansens 8166f9a7cf Formalize Cpp as a PackageNameId (#6306)
This turns `Cpp` into a keyword, and makes it map to `NameId::Cpp` and
`PackageNameId::Cpp`.

Per discussion with zygoloid, the keyword versus identifier question is
deliberately kept open by #4846. This PR switches to a keyword because
mapping to a specific `PackageNameId` works best with a special `NameId`
not backed by an `IdentifierId`. We could in theory make it work using
`IdentifierId` or a runtime-tracked `PackageNameId` for `Cpp` (e.g.
stored on `SemIR::File`), but this approach is consistent with `Core`
and so seemed like a good starting point.

Jon Ross-PerkinsandDana Jansens 42e2280150 Clean up singleton TypeId use (#6300)
#6289 absentmindedly added fields in more places, and this is undoing
that plus further fixes.

This does some cleanup of types with relation to singletons. For
`TypeType` and `ErrorInst`, they're always complete due to a
`SetComplete` call in `file.cpp`. For `CppVoidType`, it's intended to be
incomplete by construction, and so a `TypeId` should be okay. The intent
though on not generally providing these had been that `GetSingletonType`
needs to be called to get a type to be marked as complete.

In the case of `AutoType`, removing `TypeId`does change a small printing
detail. I think that's old legacy that's just been carried forward.

Otherwise, for both `InstType` and `AutoType`, I've added
`GetSingletonType` calls where they were used in order to ensure
completeness is applied correctly. These calls cause small SemIR
permutations.

This causes `AutoType` to be seen by lowering, so I'm adding a
placeholder for it. Also merging two functions that look like they're
identical in intent -- not sure why they're separate.

Richard Smith 6011040481 Rework handling of C++ references. (#6268)
For now, map C++ reference types to const-qualified Carbon pointer types
rather than picking between a (non-const) pointer or a value type. This
fixes misbehavior in lowering for reference members in classes and
reference return types.

Update the special-case handling for references as function parameters
so that it continues to map const reference parameters to Carbon
pass-by-value, and unify the code paths for `self` parameters and other
parameters, which were mostly doing the same thing but had some subtle
differences.

Add references to the list of types that we can pass to and from C++
directly, without needing an additional layer of thunks.

Geoff Romer 09710d102f Separate binding insts for refs and values (#6235)
This resolves a TODO in `expr_info.cpp` by using the inst kind rather
than the bound value to track the binding's category.

Since we're churning all the `bind_name` insts in testdata anyway, I'm
also taking this opportunity to align the inst naming with the design's
terminology, by calling these insts "bindings" (this aspect of the PR is
dependent on #6231 resolving an ambiguity in that terminology). For
consistency we'll need to rename several other insts as well (see the
TODO on `RefBinding`); I'm deferring that to a separate PR to minimize
the review load, but I think those name changes are in-scope for this
review.

Boaz Brickner 840562feb3 C++ Interop: Fix access calculation to handle private member of base classes correctly (#6238)
Always take into account both the lookup access specifier and the
declaration. When set, lookup access specifier takes precedence. When
not set, we have two use cases:
1. This is not a record member, so no access is specified at all. Treat
this as public.
2. This is a record member of a base class. Treat this as private.
[Reference](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/4b1d7827c07381610ad4fa7bd9d1a9659008b963/clang/include/clang/AST/DeclCXX.h#L1724).

Boaz Brickner a0ef7e7112 C++ Interop: Add test coverage for access control of static/instance data/function members (#6199)
This demonstrates two issues:
1. It seems like we wrongly treat private static data members the same
way we treat protected and allow access to them from within derived
classes member functions.
2. Calling instance member functions of a base C++ class using a derived
class as self (no implicit upcast) is not yet supported. This isn't
related to access control, but prevents us from testing some access
control use cases.

Dana Jansens e682a6660d Avoid adding extraneous local instructions while importing witness table entries (#6180)
When deducing arguments for generic parameters of an `impl`, the
deduction calls `Convert` on the input arguments. Often, the input
argument is a facet, and needs to be converted to a type via
FacetAccessType in order to produce a different facet. These
instructions end up being added to the semir, but only their constant
values are needed for the resulting specific returned from Deduce.

In the best case, these extra instructions are just noise in the semir,
or they just cause instruction names to get differentiated with larger
suffixes.

In the worst case, these extra instructions contain references to
instructions from a generic context, and leak them out of that generic
context and into another. In particular, when importing a
LookupImplWitness instruction, the re-evaluation of it can do deduce
(when the lookup is against a generic `impl`). The instructions created
in Deduce are not part of the import, and end up referring to imported
instructions from the local context, which leads to confusion in the
toolchain, and can crash.

The `import_self_specific.carbon` test demonstrates this. It causes the
`I.F` function to be imported from the `I` interface when building the
witness table for the `impl`. Doing so imports the specific of `C` which
includes a LookupImplWitness for `Self.Accoc` in `I`. The `Self` is a
BindSymbolicName with generic binding index 0, in `I`. When Convert
creates instructions in the generic `impl forall D`, however, they end
up referencing and including this BindSymbolicName into its eval block.
But the generic binding 0 in the `impl` is a very different thing (a
value of type `E`). This confusion leads to crashes.
2025-10-09 16:07:30 +00:00
Dana Jansens fe020ee08b Make FacetAccessType evaluate to SymbolicBindingType for type-of a BindSymbolicName (#6115)
The SymbolicBindingType refers to the type value that will be
substituted in for the BindSymbolicName, but holds onto the EntityNameId
from the BindSymbolicName instead of (or in addition to, for now) the
instruction.

The EntityNameId will be used to look in the ScopeStack to find the
witnesses either from the BindSymbolicName instruction, or other
instructions that specify `impls` constraints against the EntityName.

This will allow us to have the `T` in `I(T)` resolve to a `.Self`
reference in the type so that we get type equality with the binding's
type: `T:! I(.Self)`.

Boaz Brickner 16999a79cc Fix a crash caused by a bug introduced in C++ overloads support in GetScopeIdOffset() (#6151)
After this change, we correctly increment the offset by the next switch
case type.
Before this change, we accidentally incremented the offset by
`functions()` size instead of `cpp_overload_sets()` size and vice versa.
Also sorted the switch cases according to the order of the enum, for
consistency. This might help prevent a future similar incident.

This fix prevents crashing in the newly introduced test
`multiple_too_few_args_calls`.

This also has the side effect of showing `null name` for
`cpp_overload_set_type` and `cpp_overload_set_value`, instead of having
an arbitrary name.
Examples that demonstrate the old name is arbitrary can easily be seen
in tests like `cpp_namespace.carbon` and `decayed_param.carbon`, but
careful review would show that all old names are arbitrary, though often
luckily almost make sense.

We might want to have a proper name for these, but it's beyond the scope
of this crash fixing change.

Jon Ross-Perkins 4a6376cf59 Rename/restructure Destroy logic to better reflect #6124 (#6144)
This also does a little restructuring in the same direction, following
#6124.

Leads want `Destroy` to work similarly now for all types. As a
consequence, there doesn't seem to be as much benefit to splitting off
aggregate destruction. In this PR, the `type.destroy` function can now
be expected to destroy anything that's destructible; that means it'll be
usable for the `final fn` once that support is available.

Similarly, this gets rid of the impls other than the single blanket
impl, now using `type.can_destroy`. Since they all need to use the same
function, there's no benefit to splitting approaches. Also, now it can
just be a `final impl` since there should be no need for people to
create specializations -- if this blanket impl applies, it means the
`final fn` is the same.

This also slips in `partial` support since there's no reason to have it
diverge anymore. Also `abstract`, which I'm not sure is broadly testable
since most cases it'd come up, the `abstract` keyword is explicitly
detected/rejected.

Note though that this doesn't make any really big changes. It's just
realigning on the leads decision. I'm going this way to try to reduce
name-related churn for other changes.

Richard SmithandDana Jansens 3b6d202730 Implement support for mixed-access overload sets. (#6137)
This turns out to be quite important, as several important standard
library types (such as `std::string`) have mixed-access overload sets
for their constructors as an implementation detail. The overall approach
here is:

- Use the most permissive access to determine the access of the overload
set itself. This affects whether name lookup finds the member name at
all.
- After overload resolution, re-check the access of the selected member,
if it's protected or private.

Ivana Ivanovska 12ddfb9c7c [Carbon/C++ interop] Add support for C++ overloaded functions (#5891)
As proposed in [Carbon: C++ interop for overloaded functions and
function
templates](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KUxumZtNe3mY3TsjW2s_ZADOlAaFlrtsLKHVILtqIaM/edit?tab=t.0),
Clang is used to perform the overload resolution using C++ rules, when
an overloaded C++ set is called from Carbon. Once a function is
selected, it's converted into a Carbon function and called using the
Carbon rules including argument conversions.

A single non-templated function is treated the same way as an overload
set and the same rules apply for its call.
Template functions are not supported yet.

Demo:

a) Non-templated function calls:

```c++
// --- overloads.h

auto foo(int a, short b) -> void;
auto foo(double a) -> void;
auto foo(int a) -> void;
```

```c++
// overloads.cpp

#include "overloads.h"
#include <cstdio>

auto foo(int a, short b) -> void {
  printf("hello from foo_int_short(%d, %d) \n", a, b);
}
auto foo(double a) -> void { printf("hello from foo_double(%f) \n", a); }
auto foo(int a) -> void { printf("hello from foo_int(%d) \n", a); }
```
```c++
library "Main";

import Cpp library "overloads.h";

fn Run() -> i32 {
  Cpp.foo(1.1 as f64);
  return 0;
}
```
```
$ clang -c overloads.cpp 
$ bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon compile main.carbon
$ bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon link overloads.o main.o --output=demo
$ ./demo
hello from foo_double(1.100000) 
```

b) Constructors:
```c++
// --- constructor_overloads.h
class C {
 public:
  C();
  C(int a, int b);
};
```

```c++
// constructor_overloads.cpp
#include "constructor_overloads.h"
#include <cstdio>

C::C() { printf("hello from C() \n"); }
C::C(int a, int b) { printf("hello from C(%d, %d) \n", a, b); }
```
```c++
library "Main";

import Cpp library "constructor_overloads.h";

fn Run() -> i32 {
  let c1: Cpp.C = Cpp.C.C();
  let c2: Cpp.C = Cpp.C.C(1, 2);
  return 0;
}
```

```
$ clang -c constructor_overloads.cpp 
$ bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon compile main.carbon
$ bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon link constructor_overloads.o main.o \--output=demo
$ ./demo
hello from C() 
hello from C(1, 2) 
```


Follow-ups:

- `Cpp.foo({})` - proper handling of struct literals as call args.
- Fix access for overloaded sets.
- Fix tests:
- Method calls: `error: missing object argument in method call
[MissingObjectInMethodCall]` in tests.
    - Fix `toolchain/check/testdata/interop/cpp/import.carbon` test.
    - Fix `enums` support.

Richard Smith 25681901bd Improve mapping of Clang diagnostics into Carbon diagnostics (#5894)
Instead of taking the complete text of the Clang diagnostic and using it
as the message portion of a Carbon diagnostic, generate the individual
pieces separately and pass them into the Carbon diagnostic
infrastructure.

* Clang's context lines are generated by running a custom "diagnostic
renderer" and tracking which lines it wants to print as context for a
given source location. When mapping from a C++ source location back to a
Carbon location, the Carbon `Loc` structure is now fully populated,
including filling in the context line and the column number.
* Clang's snippet is generated by running a custom diagnostic renderer
that is a cut-down version of the full text diagnostic renderer that
only prints a snippet. This is then attached to the Carbon diagnostic
manually as an override for the snippet we'd usually create.

We no longer repeat the file location twice on each diagnostic, and no
longer produce a bogus "in import" line for all locations coming from
clang that point arbitrarily to the first C++ import in the Carbon file.
The `[diagnostic kind]` marker is now displayed at the end of the
diagnostic message, not on a line of its own after the snippet.

Richard Smith a6f5143f22 Fix diagnostic for access of protected/private base member. (#5874)
When importing the member, import the access level for the lookup
result, not the declared access of the member declaration.

Boaz Brickner 30f0ddab71 Add support for importing access from C++ to Carbon (#5858)
Better access control with inheritance should come with better
inheritance support (actually importing inheritance).

C++ Interop Demo:

```c++
// hello_world.h

class HelloWorld {
 public:
  static auto Pub() -> void;

 protected:
  static auto Pro() -> void;

 private:
  static auto Pri() -> void;
};
```

```c++
// hello_world.cpp

#include "hello_world.h"

#include <cstdio>

auto HelloWorld::Pub() -> void { printf("Public!\n"); }
auto HelloWorld::Pro() -> void { printf("Protected!\n"); }
auto HelloWorld::Pri() -> void { printf("Private!\n"); }
```

```carbon
// main.carbon

library "Main";

import Cpp library "hello_world.h";

fn Run() -> i32 {
  Cpp.HelloWorld.Pub();
  Cpp.HelloWorld.Pro();
  Cpp.HelloWorld.Pri();
  return 0;
}
```

```shell
$ clang -c hello_world.cpp
$ bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon compile main.carbon
main.carbon:9:3: error: cannot access protected member `Pro` of type `Cpp.HelloWorld`
  Cpp.HelloWorld.Pro();
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
main.carbon: note: declared here

main.carbon:10:3: error: cannot access private member `Pri` of type `Cpp.HelloWorld`
  Cpp.HelloWorld.Pri();
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
main.carbon: note: declared here
```

Before this change (no access checks):
```shell
$ bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon compile main.carbon
$ bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon link hello_world.o main.o --output=demo
$ ./demo
Public!
Protected!
Private!
```
