This is similar to the previously-added support for accessing generic
carbon classes from C++, but with the specific defined by Carbon, rather
than being derived from template args supplied by clang in
`LoadExternalSpecializations`.
Example:
```carbon
class C(T: type) {
var t: T;
}
alias A = C(i32);
inline Cpp '''
void F() {
Carbon::A a;
a.t = 123;
}
'''
```
The exported class was being inserted with a type inst ID as the key
(and looked up that way elsewhere), but when checking if the generic
class was already exported, the `first_decl_id` was being used. Make it
consistent, and opt for `first_decl_id` everywhere since it provides a
better location for diagnostics.
Implementing interface modifiers causes an infinite loop when generating
fingerprints because the witness value generates a fingerprint that's
dependent on something dependent on the witness value. We've debugged
this to the witness table's `elements_id` field.
This hack is a workaround for creating a new block type whose value is
not codependent with its identity.

Add `Core.CppCompat.[U]Long64` to represent a 64-bit long that is not
`i64`. Treat it as being "just slightly smaller than" `i64`, like we
treat `Core.CppCompat.LongLong64` as being "just slightly larger than"
`i64`, so that we get implicit conversions `Cpp.long` -> `i64` ->
`Cpp.long_long` on all targets.
This follows the direction of proposal #5448, and seems like the obvious
extension of the `[U]Long32` and `[U]LongLong64` types added in #6275
for targets of this "shape".

Make multiple imports of the same header only parse it once per C++
domain. Reuse of the same header in `--share-cpp-ast` mode now reuses
the representation.
Importing a Carbon file with C++ dependencies now makes those transitive
C++ dependencies in the same C++ domain visible too.

This isolates the C++ imports in different Carbon files from each other
in `--share-cpp-ast` mode, so that a Carbon file can only see the
portions of the shared Clang `ASTContext` that it actually imported.

In Convert, we require the source value's type to be compete so that we
can look for `base` classes and `adapt` relationships. However these can
only be present in a `ClassType`, so we only need `ClassType`s to be
complete.
Reduce the requirement in Convert to not complete types that are not a
`ClassType`, and which can not contain a `ClassType` as part of their
class.
Ideally we would only _only_ require the `ClassType` itself to be
complete, and only if we're looking for a base or adapt. However lower
depends on us completing all Convert source types that contain a class.
This seems to suggest we're lacking checks for complete types somewhere
else and Convert is making up for it. A TODO has been added. The
`toolchain/driver/testdata/compile/optimize/optimize_debug.carbon` test
is an example that CHECKs due to failing to verify the LLVM module if we
do not compute the complete type of all class-containing types in
Convert.
The critical step this PR is doing is to stop trying to complete a
`FacetType` when converting from a facet. This avoids trying to complete
a named constraint when converting `Self` inside that named constraint.
Doing so causes a cycle when the conversion of `Self` is performed in
eval of an `extend require` decl, since requiring the named constraint
to be complete re-evaluates the `extend require` decl again. A test is
added that crashed in an infinite loop before this change.
It also depends on #7584, which was intended to be an optimization but
is now load bearing. Because converting `Self` leaves an impl lookup
inst behind, and if that inst is re-evaluated inside impl lookup (by
forming a specific of a `require` decl through identify) then we have a
similar cycle.
During impl lookup, for each (generic) impl candidate, we form a
specific for that impl by deducing its generic arguments. Then we
compare the query interface against the impl's specific interface. That
comparison needs the deduced arguments applied to the impl's specific
interface. Previously we were doing this by getting the impl's
constraint facet type with the impl's specific applied (via
`GetConstantValueInSpecific()`) and then identifying that facet type
with the impl's deduced self.
Identify is a fairly expensive operation. It runs subst, trying to
replace `.Self` references. It walks named constraints. It collects
require declarations. We're looking at making it do _more_ in the future
too, including rewrite constraint resolution and collecting rewrite and
same-type constraints. For this reason we have a cache to make it cheap
on the second run, but it's still a very heavyweight operation to
involve in impl lookup, when all we want is to apply the impl's specific
to its target interface.
We almost have all the information we need to avoid the identification
step. We have the impl's specific after deduction. And we have the
SpecificInterface that the impl is targeting in the `Impl` struct. When
we form the specific for the impl itself, we resolve the declaration
block and form new constant values for all instructions in there, but
that does not cover the SpecificInterface that we're storing in the
`Impl` struct. So we add a new instruction to the impl's eval block,
which will be symbolic when the impl is generic and the target interface
depends on a generic parameter. And we store the `InstId` in the `Impl`
struct. This allows us to gets its constant value later with the impl's
specific applied. From that constant value we can then pull out the
SpecificInterface that the impl is targeting.
Point symbolic witnesses into `.Self` written inside an impl decl at the
impl that is being declared. This is tricky because the impl does not
yet exist. So we use a new instruction `ImplSelfWitness` which _will_ be
replaced by the `ImplWitness` once it becomes available. The
`ImplSelfWitness` acts like a symbolic witness, except it does not
perform lookup, since we know which impl we will get a witness from.
This prevents us from finding other impls when performing lookups into
`.Self` in an impl decl, which produces incorrect/incoherent results.
Instead of building one Clang `ASTContext` per compilation, the
`--share-cpp-ast` flag causes us to build a single `ASTContext` and
share it across all contexts. One new abstraction is added: `CppDomain`
represents the Carbon-side view of a Clang AST that might be shared
across multiple `SemIR::File`s. This object owns the Clang instance and
the AST.
For now, we have no isolation between the C++ state exposed to different
Carbon compilations, and we have no multiplexing of generated LLVM IR
from C++ into different Carbon compilations, so the mode is not usable
yet. The plan is to keep it behind a flag until it's ready.

The check for a specific in `TryMapClassType` is unnecessary;
immediately after it calls `ExportClassToCpp`, which has the same check.
The latter also has a `context.TODO`, which provides a clearer error.
Also improved the `LocId` in `ExportClassToCpp` to use the location of
the first decl rather than the empty location of the class type. This is
the same fix as
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7533, just applied a
little more broadly. This makes the `context.TODO` above point at the
class rather than the start of the source file.
Add a `return_type_id` field to `FunctionInfo` in
`toolchain/check/cpp/export.cpp`. As with the `explicit_params` field,
`ExportFunctionSpecializationToCpp` updates this to the return type in
the specific.
Refactored `BuildCppFunctionDeclForCarbonFn` into
`BuildCppFunctionDeclForNonGenericCarbonFn` and
`BuildCppFunctionDeclForGenericCarbonFn`, with `BuildCppFunctionDecl`
containing shared code.
The `generic_type_impls_interface.carbon` test is updated to include a
generic return type.
We can't use a `CallExpr` to call a constructor; use a
`CXXConstructExpr` instead. While this fixes the crash and gets us past
the initial constant evaluation, we still can't map the constant value
back into Carbon, so this doesn't actually make constexpr constructors
work yet. But it does stop Clang from crashing.
Fixes#7498.
Instead of tracking the cleanup scope depth on entry to each scope,
track an "ambient" cleanup scope depth that's *after* the destructors of
local variables in that scope. This gets increased to include the
destructors of local variables when we create a name-binding
declaration. Then, when we reach a point where temporaries should be
destroyed, run cleanups that are after the ambient cleanup scope depth
on the stack. This happens:
* At the `;` of a statement expression.
* At the `)` of an `if` or `while` statement.
* After performing the implied `HasValue()` call in a `for` statement.
Per informal agreement with leads, this means we lifetime-extend all
temporaries created in the initializer of a name-binding declaration to
the full scope of that declaration, but that temporaries created in an
expression statement are destroyed at the `;`.
When a Carbon virtual function overrides a C++ virtual function, we need
to export it with the C++ signature in order for it to work as an
override. Instead of mapping the C++ signature into Carbon and then back
again, use the original C++ signature from the base class as the
signature exported to C++.
Also add documentation explaining how we use thunks in C++ interop,
including in this new virtual function handling logic.
Instead of manually creating a map from symbolic types to concrete
types, create a Specific and look up parameter types via that Specific.
This allows C++ to call a Carbon function like `fn F[T: type](unused t:
T*) {}`. See generic_pointer.carbon.
Implement the toolchain side of proposal #7254, removing the `:!`
binding
syntax for generic and template parameters in favor of the keywords
`generic`,
`template`, and `runtime` plus contextual defaults for phase.
For valid programs this is semantics-preserving: each binding resolves
to the
same phase, and produces the same SemIR, as it did under `:!`/`:`. The
parser
derives a binding's phase from its syntactic context plus any explicit
phase
keyword; new diagnostics and error recovery for misused keywords are
described
below.
Implementation details for each component:
- Lexer: remove the `:!` (`ColonExclaim`) token, move its virtual
parse-node
budget onto `:`, and add the `generic` and `runtime` keywords.
- Parser: thread a `BindingContext` (`ExplicitParam`, `DeducedParam`, or
`CompileTimeEntityParam`) from declaration introducers down through
parameter
lists to each binding pattern, using a one-token lookahead to
distinguish a
name-qualifier parameter list from a declaration's own final list.
Parameters
of a compile-time entity (`class`, `interface`, `constraint`, `choice`,
`alias`, `export`, `namespace`) and deduced `[]` parameters default to
checked
generic; explicit function parameters and local bindings default to
runtime.
`HandleBindingPattern` resolves the phase from that context plus the
keyword: a
`generic` keyword needs no node of its own (the phase is carried by the
binding's node kind), while a `runtime` keyword is preserved as a
`RuntimeBindingName` node so `check` can name it in a diagnostic. A
phase
keyword that is merely redundant with the contextual default is
diagnosed
here, without invalidating the parse tree.
- Check: a phase keyword that is invalid for its context (for example
`runtime`
on a checked-generic parameter) is diagnosed here, and recovers by
building an
error binding that still introduces the name so that later uses of it do
not
produce cascading errors.
The removed `:!` syntax is now rejected as an ordinary parse error.
The `form`/`:?`/`->?` ("extended types") portion of proposal #7254 is
left for a
separate change.

In #7436 we stopped substituting `.Self` when collecting witnesses out
of a facet type. While this was correct, it did not capture all the
cases that need to avoid substituting `.Self`. And it poisoned the
`IdentifiedFacetType` cache by not replacing `.Self` but storing the
result in the cache. This led to incoherent behaviour, where the result
of an impl lookup would change depending on which ones had been done
previously.
Now we use a flag to track for each `.Self` if we're currently
type-checking inside the scope where it was introduced in a facet type.
While inside that scope, identify should not replace the `.Self`. Any
use of it should remain as-is since we don't yet know what value will
replace it. We call this state "frozen" since it should not be modified
by identify. This requires a substitution step when we leave the scope
that introduced the `.Self`, to remove the flag. The flag is set in the
`EntityName` of the `SymbolicBinding`, and is part of the canonical
value, since `.Self` can become part of types, which are constants, and
the flag needs to follow it for correct behaviour.
We also have to ensure the flag is the same when doing comparison with
constants from inside a facet type and constants from outside. For
instance in `(Z where .Z1 = ()) where .Z2 = .Z1`, when we arrive at the
second `.Z1` its `.Self` will be frozen, while the `.Z1 = ()` contains a
non-frozen `.Self`. So we add the frozen flag to the first when storing
it in `where_stack` in order to compare the constant values of the two
`.Z1`.
The `WhereExpr` requirement inst kinds now have an `InstConstantKind` of
`AlwaysUnique` instead of `Never`. This allows us to add them to the
usual InstBlocks, and in an `eval fn` body they have a constant value,
so eval does not fail when trying to call that function. We have to be
careful to not consider `AlwaysUnique` as being actually concrete
though, since their constant value erases `.Self`-dependence. This
allows us to stop special casing them when thawing the requirements
block in a `WhereExpr`, and we can just thaw each `InstId` in the block
in a straightforward manner.
We add the new flag to the instruction's fingerprint and name in
formatted semir.
This adds SemIR structs and implements building `observe` lists, as well
as naming, formatting, and importing `observe` declarations.

This allows C++ to call Carbon functions with generic type parameters,
with some conditions. Example:
```carbon
interface I {
fn Doit(self);
}
class A {
impl as I { fn Doit(unused self) {} }
}
class B {
impl as I { fn Doit(unused self) {} }
}
fn F[T:! I](t: T) {
t.Doit();
}
inline Cpp '''
void G() {
Carbon::A a;
Carbon::B b;
Carbon::F(a);
Carbon::F(b);
}
''';
```
The initial support is limited; only explicit parameters are handled
currently.
`CarbonExternalASTSource::GetOrExportFunctionToCpp` now generates a
`clang::FunctionTemplateDecl` for generic Carbon functions. If C++ code
attempts to call that templated function,
`CarbonExternalASTSource::LoadExternalSpecializations` will be called
with the template argument types of that call site. Then we can generate
a specialized thunk for those argument types for C++ to call.
In some cases the pattern block can depend on the initializer, so it
must be sequenced after it. See #7469 for a more detailed explanation of
why this is necessary.
The bulk of this change is changing most pattern insts to be `Always`
rather than `AlwaysUnique` constants, so that they can be wrapped in
`SpecificConstant`s to perform substitution. That then lets thunking
rely much more on `SpecificConstant` wrappers instead of deep-copying
the inst tree with modified types.
This approach to thunking should scale better, particularly as things
like form generics make function signatures more complex, because we can
leverage the existing support for constant evaluation and substitution.
Unfortunately, applying this approach to binding patterns will require
more work; see the TODO near the top of `thunk.cpp` for details.

Adapters were erroneously satisfying `Core.Destroy` because we were
directly getting the object's representation without consideration for
abstract and adapted types. This change ensures that adapted types'
representations are used instead of the adapter types.
This ensures the clang_decls map is used as a cache - without this,
visiting the same entity twice could cause it to be
re-exported/duplicated. See attached test case.
Fix import logic to make all imported packages be children of the
`NameScopeId::Package` scope. Previously, indirectly-imported packages
would end up as children of their importing package's scope, which
resulted in them not being treated as packages at all, and in particular
not being fingerprinted as packages.
Fixing that caused a failure in the fingerprinting logic as we started
to encounter packages with no correspoding import scopes. Instead of
looking for import scopes, use a simpler mechanism to map packages to
their package names, and clean up.
Unfortunately the latter change churns all the fingerprints again :(
Hopefully this is the last time for a while.
Implement support for floating-point <-> integer type conversions as
described in #820 and #845, extended to support `unsafe as` conversions
for the conversions that can't be expressed as either implicit
conversions or `as` conversions.
One tricky part here is conversions from floating-point literals to
integer types. Such literals may have both a very large mantissa and a
corresponding somewhat large negative exponent, and still produce a
result that is in the range of values that a small integer type can
represent. In order to support that while avoiding building very large
2^N or 10^N constants in general, we first compute a conservative
approximation of the number of bits necessary to represent the integer
result, with an early exit if the number is either definitely too large
or definitely zero. The remaining cases have a reasonable bound on the
size of integer necessary to compute the base^exponent multiplicand.

When we import from another library in the same package, its entities
end up with our library as their parent scope, resulting in cross-file
fingerprint mismatches. Instead, only include the library ID when
fingerprinting either a package-private entity or an `ImportIRId` that
refers to a particular `SemIR::File`.
For now, disable the use of array types as by-var paramters and by-init
return types when exporting Carbon functions to C++, as C++ does not
support raw arrays being passed or returned by value.

Include the library name in the fingerprint of an entity declared
`private` at namespace scope. Include the entity's fingerprint in the
mangling of a library-private entity.
This fixes miscompiles if two libraries in the same package declare
`private` entites with the same name. We can't fix this with internal
linkage because library-private entities can be reachable through
generics defined in the API file of the library.

Carbon-side thunks (for example the `Copy`/`Destroy` witness thunks
generated for imported C++ types) are mangled by Carbon, and their names
incorporate a fingerprint of the involved types. The instruction
fingerprinter identifies a class only by its name and parent scope,
which is sufficient for Carbon classes but not for imported C++ classes:
different specializations of one class template (and other cases such as
types in anonymous namespaces) share a Carbon name and parent scope. As
a result, the thunks for two distinct specializations could mangle to
the same name, producing a single LLVM function with two definitions and
failing `verifyModule` during lowering.
When fingerprinting a class imported from C++, also include the Clang
mangled name of its type.
Test: toolchain/lower/testdata/interop/cpp/thunks.carbon gains a split
with two specializations of one class template, each requiring a thunk;
their thunks now get distinct mangled names instead of colliding.

Allow a `ref`-tagged expression to be converted to match a reference

Fixes link failures when referencing a symbol involving a fingerprint
from a different package.
Previously we included the `Namespace`'s `import_id` as part of its
fingerprint, which caused local and imported namespaces to get different
fingerprints. We now store the `import_id` on the `NameScope` instead of
on the `Namespace` inst to avoid this problem.
Also, when we reach a package-level `NameScopeId`, consistently
fingerprint it as a (package name, library name) pair. Previously the
fingerprinting depended on whether it was imported or not, as an
imported `NameScopeId` had a parent scope (the current package). We need
to include the library name here so that private entities with the same
name in different libraries have different fingerprints.
This also fixes passing a value expression to a forwarding reference,
since we currently deduce a `const T&&` parameter in that case.
We were accidentally looking at the type of the thunk parameter (which
is never an rvalue reference) rather than the type of the callee
parameter.
Previously, we picked a single Carbon parameter pattern for each C++
parameter pattern. This doesn't work well in cases where the Carbon
semantics and the C++ semantics are not perfectly aligned. In
particular, when a parameter is passed by value in C++, that might mean
either pass-by-move (which in Carbon would best be modeled by a `var`
pattern, as no other form of parameter would perform a move) or
pass-by-copy (which in Carbon would best be modeled by a value
parameter, as a `var` parameter would force an extra copy).
After this change, we compute a passing mode for each parameter based on
the implicit conversion sequence from the argument to the parameter as
determined by C++ overload resolution, and use that to determine the
Carbon pattern corresponding to each C++ parameter. This results in
potentially generating multiple different thunks for the same C++
function if it's called in different ways, but we already did that to
handle default arguments and list-initialization. The passing modes are
included in the thunk mangling.
Add a new value store for clang decl signatures, which capture the
information about parameter passing mode as well as the other existing
information about different ways that a C++ function might be imported
to Carbon.
Most of the rules for computing passing modes are the same as before:
const references use pass by value, non-const lvalue references use
pass-by-ref, non-const rvalue references use pass-by-var. But for C++
non-reference parameters, pick between pass-by-value and pass-by-var
based on whether the implicit conversion sequence was effectively
performing a copy. Prefer pass-by-value if either would work and they'd
do the same thing. We still use pass-by-value for const references, even
when the argument is an lvalue and we could pass a reference; we may
want to change this in future.
For virtual functions, we try to pick a worst-case passing mode, as we
can only pick a single signature for what goes in the vtable. Calls to
virtual functions will still use a thunk to C++, allowing variance in
the calling convention at call sites. We don't allow variance in the
overriders as we don't implement support for thunks for virtual
functions yet. We currently use pass-by-value for const reference
parameters here, but that should probably change at some point.

Fixes mangling collisions when two thunks with the same name (eg, `Op`)
are created in the same context, which in turn would lead to LLVM
verifier failures and miscompiles.
To support this, add a new value store to track a little more
information about thunks beyond what's in the `Function`.
This lets us stop eliding it in textual semir tests with dump ranges.
Previously it would always get elided, even though it was part of the
range being dumped, and was referred to by other instructions in the
dump range.
Since each `.Self` is unique (can change its type if not its value) in a
facet type, having each one distinct by location also aids
understanding.
See
[here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rWcueFwIfZox6GKVGxiUG4cBzjrZ6djXiIDGyJDtrE4/edit?tab=t.0)
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.
