Richard Smith 568ad197d1 Track the instruction used to name the type and constraint in an impl. (#4368)
This is necessary in order to have access to the specific versions of
their constant values in a generic impl.

Stub out impl deduction.

Richard Smith 5ab957d012 Make ImplDecls evaluate to themselves. (#4352)
Change ImplDecls so they evaluate to themselves in general, rather than
having a special case in import handling that pretends that they do.

Richard SmithandJon Ross-Perkins 2f3ad26f0e Basic support for declaring generic impls. (#4336)
Update impl handling to more closely match other kinds of declaration,
including support for declaring and defining gneeric `impl`s.

When of performing redeclaration lookup for impls by looking for the
self and constraint type, produce a list of impls rather than a single
impl because it's possible for there to be multiple impls with different
deduced parameters but the same self type and constraint. Following
#3763, only consider impls to be redeclarations if they're spelled the
same, not just if they have the same self and constraint types.

No support yet for impl selection to deduce the arguments of a generic
impl.

Richard Smith 42bda1e38f Don't substitute into the targeted instructions of an associated constant. (#4342)
When an instruction makes an absolute reference to another instruction,
such as when `assoc_const` refers to the declaration of the associated
constant in an interface, substitution into that instruction should not
substitute into the referenced instruction.

Mark the corresponding `InstId` fields in the typed instructions as
being absolute by giving them a distinct ID type that `Subst` doesn't
substitute into. This formation of unnecessarily complicated SemIR that
could in some cases lead to a CHECK failure when printing formatted
SemIR because the same instruction ends up in multiple scopes.

Geoff RomerandJon Ross-Perkins dc32aa2690 Initial support for binding patterns in SemIR (#4221)
Introduces the `BindingPattern` and `SymbolicBindingPattern` insts, and
a separate stack of pattern blocks that they are emitted into. The
intent is to generate the corresponding pattern-matching insts (like
`BindName`) from them in a separate pass, but that is deferred to future
PRs.

See
[here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1U_vQH17V893J9aF1LJXUnFYBNSs2MjKl4bJPaWCB2zo/edit?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-w0xGYZ0An31Kpz-wvzSXwQ)
for the design this is based on, but note that during review we have
chosen to deviate from that design by putting the patterns in separate
blocks, and omitting the "forward references" from a `BindingPattern` to
its corresponding `BindName`. This in turn necessitates having separate
inst kinds for symbolic and non-symbolic binding patterns.

- Modify diagnostic_consumer.cpp
    - ERROR -> error

Richard Smith 2044366652 Support initialization of specific classes from struct literals (#4320)
Add support for initializing types like `GenericClass(i32)` from a
struct literal. A new kind of instruction, `complete_type_witness`, is
added to the class definition to track the object representation type so
that it's visible to the generics machinery. Accesses to the object
representation of a class have all been updated to pass in the class's
`SpecificId` so that the types of the fields of the specific class are
used instead of the types of the fields of the generic class in places
that look at the object representation -- primarily class
initialization.

Richard Smith 0354efa1fc Rework how we check calls to support deduced implicit parameters (#4302)
Instead of the `call` instruction having a block with one argument per
explicit argument, preceded optionally by `self` and followed optionally
by a return slot, change the `call` to store only the *runtime*
arguments. Store an index on the runtime parameters to make it easier to
determine the correspondence between arguments and parameters in a call.
Compile-time parameters, whether implicit or explicit, are no longer
included in the call argument list. Instead, they're tracked only in the
`specific_id` on the callee.

For calls to generic classes and generic interfaces, it no longer makes
sense to form a `call` instruction, given that the entirety of the
result is determined by the `specific_id`, which is now formed when
checking the call. Instead, the `call` instruction now only models
function calls, and not calls to other kinds of parameterized entity
names, and we create a `class_type` or `interface_type` instead of a
`call` instruction to model these kinds of calls. Notionally the model
here is that we're following the #3720 approach for calls, but for now
we inline the `Call.Op` function when forming SemIR.

We now also track the enclosing specific for a generic class or generic
interface that appears within an enclosing generic. This is necessary in
order for deduction of the inner generic parameters to not get confused
by the outer generic parameters being absent.

In order to not regress diagnostics, the template argument deduction
mechanism has been extended to specify the name of the parameter we're
deducing against when possible, and call arity mismatch errors are now
diagnosed before performing deduction rather than afterwards.

Richard SmithandJon Ross-Perkins 187a3608df Use As and ImplicitAs interfaces for conversions. (#4209)
Add these interfaces to the core library. For now, they're two separate
interfaces because we don't yet support one interface extending another.

This collapses a lot of the layering in check: for example, the call
building logic depends on implicit conversions, conversions now depend
on the overloaded operator machinery, and that machinery depends on
building calls.

In passing, improve the diagnostics for failing to find a name required
from the prelude. Also convert all the transitively-called code from
`NodeId` to `LocId` given the latter is what the conversion machinery
has available.

Richard Smith b2a13afb73 Defer resolving the eval blocks and value blocks of generics and specifics until we've finished other resolution work. (#4202)
This avoids import cycles, and reduces the number of temporary vectors
we build (and potentially throw away on retry). Import the self specific
when importing a generic, now that there's no risk that will introduce
cycles.

Note that we could take the same approach to import classes, interfaces,
and so on, instead of the current third phase of resolution for those
instructions, but in this PR I'm just addressing the import cycle I'm
currently seeing in a work-in-progress PR.

Richard Smith 3c4c234d01 Treat the empty inst block as being canonical. (#4199)
TryEvalInst was assuming this to be the case when forming canonical
constants, but it previously wasn't.

This fixes an issue where we can end up with two identical-looking
constants for an empty struct value: one with an `Empty` block and
another with the canonical empty block.

Jon Ross-Perkins 3d13b8f71c Fix handling of interface redefinitions. (#4198)
The prior code crashed when trying to find the function's `Self`
parameter, I believe. `fail_redefine_with_dependents.carbon` handles
this case. It wasn't caught by the prior case because the `F` didn't
have any dependent parameters.

Note this also ran into a formatter crash, with invalid constants. I'm
fixing that here, but will also note it on #4145 (the crash in
FinishGenericDecl was muddled by a crash in Formatter code).

Richard Smith f6ff5b11b5 Distinguish between whether an entity has its own parameter lists and whether it is generic. (#4191)
It's actually possible to get into all four combinations of having
parameter lists versus being generic:

- An entity nested within a generic, such as a member class, can be
generic even if it has no parameters.

- As a corner case, an entity with an *empty* parameter list has
parameter lists, but isn't a generic because it doesn't have any generic
parameters.

We don't use the interface parameters when type-checking `impl`s or uses
of interface members yet, but we do now check interface arguments during
`impl` lookup.

Richard Smith b3fcaf9969 Initial rough support for deducing generic arguments in a call to a generic function. (#4184) 2024-08-02 22:44:51 +00:00
Richard Smith a9b43a222f When importing symbolic constants and types, also import the associated generic and index. (#4180)
A symbolic constant has an instruction to compute the constant value, as
well as potentially also having a generic ID and an index within that
generic to indicate where corresponding values can be found in a
specific. Import those pieces of information when importing such a
constant.

We try to import the generic before we start the main work of importing
the constant, and retry the import process if importing the generic adds
work to the worklist. This means that the first time we import anything
within a generic, we can now perform three passes calling
`TryResolveInst` instead of two, but the first pass is very lightweight
and only looks up and adds a single instruction, so the added overhead
of the extra pass should be minimal.

To avoid introducing cycles when importing a generic function, make the
import of a function declaration build the new `Function`,
`FunctionDecl`, and `FunctionType` in the first pass, like classes and
interfaces do.

Richard Smith 3c8fc714a8 Import support for generics and specifics (#4179)
Import generics and specifics when they are referenced by imported
entities.

When importing a generic, we import the symbolic constants required by
its eval block, and then rebuild the eval block itself given the list of
constants it needs to compute. This is likely a bit less efficient than
directly importing the contents of the eval block, but avoids needing to
either extend the importer code to be able to import the instructions
that can appear in the eval block or extend the evaluator to cope with
instructions from a different `SemIR::File`.

Importing a symbolic constant is unaffected, and does not yet preserve
the associated generic and index within that generic, so uses of a
generic from an imported IR still don't pick up values from the
specific, but the improved functionality can be seen in the changes to
the SemIR in the testcases.

Jon Ross-PerkinsandRichard Smith 7ded56ef35 Improve namespace handling in imports. (#4153)
This implements a few closely related features:

- Starts merging namespaces discovered inside imports.
- Stores results of cross-package name lookup as an entry inside the
scope.
  - Note this is particularly visible with `i32`.
- Moves more of the imported instructions to the import scope.

Note this is primarily for executing the namespace TODO in check.cpp,
which is removed here.
`testdata/namespace/merging_with_indirections.carbon` tests key
behavior.

Richard Smith fc8e686607 Rebuild all constants in the eval block. (#4155)
Instead of reusing instructions from the generic entity in the eval
block, rebuild constants in the same way we rebuild types. The previous
attempt to not rebuild these constants assumed that every constant used
in a generic would be built in that generic, and not referenced directly
or referenced from some enclosing scope, which isn't true in practice
and is a fragile assumption in any case.

We could add back some reuse of instructions from the generic -- if we
happen to see the right instruction to build a constant, we could
opportunistically reuse it -- but given the complexity added by doing
so, I'm not pursuing that here.

Now that the eval block for a generic consists of instructions uniquely
owned by that generic, rather than often being shared with another
entity, include the generic in the formatted SemIR output. I'm using the
same scope name for the generic object itself as for the parameterized
class / function / interface, because there are very frequently
references between them and this keeps the IR simpler and more readable,
and avoids needing to invent a second name for the scope.

Jon Ross-Perkins db022658c6 Implement syntactic merge checks for parameters. (#4149)
Note this isn't implementing checking through imports. The parse node
there is harder to access through the context, so would require
examining the entity in order to get the import declaration, to get at
the ImportIR. We also don't have a parse tree attached in that case, and
would need to add one to SemIR::File. But I believe we do want to add
that, so it's explicitly a TODO.

Note GetTokenText re-lexes literal values, so there's a bit of potential
overhead there. Not sure if we want a more efficient manner for
comparing in cases like this.

Jon Ross-Perkins 65d6e3e221 Use verbose formatting of instructions on crash messages. (#4125)
Changes crash messages to start printing verbose forms of instructions,
rather than just the ID. Fixes some indentation issues with stacks. Also
switches unexpected inst formatting, because now there are lots, and
it'd be helpful to know where they are.

This uses a pimpl pattern for Formatter due to the number of member
functions on Formatter. Maybe we should refactor that, but this didn't
feel like a good place to do so.

Note, I have two concerns about this change... to note them here, to
make sure others are considering them when evaluating the
implementation:

1. Some instructions are very verbose to print, as evidenced by the
fn_decl printing (which includes function params) or scope printing
(which includes scope members).
- I'm not sure whether there's a way to simply reduce this, as it seems
essential to the requested printing of instructions.
- Long-term, we may at least want to limit the number of lines printed
here. However, I've already spent a fair amount of time here and I think
it's in a good state to evaluate.
2. Increased complexity in the crash handler may result in crash
messages failing to generate.
- For example, a crash in Formatter (and its deps, such as InstNamer or
location handling) prevents a stack from being printed. I'm pretty sure
I've written crashes in Formatter before.

Here's an example crash snippet (generated by adding a crash inside
`return` handling) before:

```
2.	NodeStack:
	0.	FunctionDefinitionStart -> function2
	1.	ReturnStatementStart -> no value
	2.	IntLiteral -> inst+26

Richard Smith 7322a1e220 Build a list of dependent constants to recompute in each instance of a generic. (#4110)
For each generic, build a list of instructions describing the
computations we need to do when resolving an instance of the generic:
this is a list of the instance-specific constants and types that the
generic uses. Another way of viewing this list is as a block of Carbon
SemIR code that is evaluated in order to form an instance of the generic
-- this is referenced in the code as the "eval block" for the generic.

For each instruction in the generic whose type or value is a symbolic
constant, replace that type or constant value with a symbolic reference
that says "to find the actual type or value, look at index N in the list
of values for the generic instance".

For an instruction with a symbolic constant value, we can just add that
instruction to our list. For an instruction with a symbolic constant
type, however, we may not have a corresponding instruction computing the
type within the generic and may need to build a new instruction, but
will reuse one where possible. In the case where we build a new
instruction, we use the existing substitution code to build the type
within the eval block.

For now, this transformation is only done in the declaration region of
the generic, not in the definition region. Also, we map back from the
symbolic references to the underlying constant value in a few places
where we will eventually need to do a lookup into a generic instance, in
order to avoid regressing the tests.

Jon Ross-Perkins 9581a1867d Move import refs to their own block. (#4103)
This executes on a TODO in AddImportRef to add instructions to their own
block instead of the File block. This has an important consequence of
removing a pattern from InstBlockStack that added to blocks not
currently at the top, cleaning up an issue for ArrayStack. The delta
here is then mostly in different formatting of the import refs, a
consequence of the separation.

Jon Ross-Perkins 5ebcbae2e8 Add a location to indirect imports. (#4098)
By adding an `ImportDecl` instruction, this creates something that can
be referenced through `ImportIRInst`.
packages/no_prelude/implicit_imports_entities.carbon is getting a test
of this (import_conflict and import_conflict_reverse).

Also re-packs ImportIR from 24 bytes to 16 on 64-bit, since I'm touching
everywhere that makes one anyways.

Jon Ross-Perkins 3f78e1d068 Change implicit import handling to be namespace-oriented. (#4089)
This refactors how the implicit import is handled in order to retain
more name scope information. As a consequence, private access control
works better between api files and implementation files. Note though
that this will also be essential for name poisoning between the API and
implementation, as discussed in #3763.

In implementing this, I ran into a couple issues with namespaces that I
think point to flaws in their handling. I've fixed some and added a TODO
for the biggest issue (in check.cpp line 281-288), which relates to the
handling of namespaces of direct imports which are first evaluated
indirectly.

Richard Smith 10a198a9e6 Use the correct type for Self in generic classes and generic interfaces (#4087)
In a `class C(T:! type)`, the type `Self` should be `C(T)`, not merely
`C`. Similarly, in an `interface I(T:! type)`, the type of self should
be `I(T)`, not merely `I`.

Richard SmithandJon Ross-Perkins 19c5596fd8 Build Generic objects for generic classes and interfaces. (#4086)
In `ClassType`s and `InterfaceType`s, track a `GenericInstanceId` for
the instance rather than just the argument list.

Richard Smith e7b0529957 Create a Generic object to represent a generic. (#4081)
Build a `Generic` object for generic functions. This object tracks the
generic parameters that are in scope for the generic entity. Eventually
it will track other information about the generic too.

Add basic SemIR formatting support for generic functions.

Chandler CarruthandRichard Smith b70cfd0be9 Remove another hashtable iteraiton order dependency. (#4070)
Name scopes store the names in their scope in a `DenseMap`. Several
places reasonably avoid depending on the iteration order by sorting the
names -- they're in the formatting code path where that's a solid
approach.

Unfortunately, when we're importing one scope into another, we also need
to walk the entire scope and do something for each name. =[ This doesn't
seem like a great place to sort things to stabilize them.

I've switched to a fairly simplistic solution of having a vector of name
entries that can be iterated stably, and a separate map for lookups. I
didn't use the set-of-indices trick here because it's not clear that's
the right trade-off for a scope: likely a lot of small scopes here with
relatively hot name lookups. And the key here isn't a large or
dynamically sized thing that we're canonicalizing, it's a `NameId`. That
made me lean towards duplicating the name in the hashtable for lookup
and the vector for iteration.

I thought about a fancy approach of sorting the hashtable keys by their
values (the indices), but that would still require a bit of copying and
more code.

I also thought a bit about other optimizations, but decided to leave a
comment for now -- it's not obvious to me exactly how hot this is and
whether it's better served by faster lookups, being more memory dense,
etc. And that might involve more of an SOA layout change or some other
approach. Rather than do that here, and especially before switching
hashtables, I stuck with a simple approach to address the ordering.

Richard Smith d18584c6c2 Make representation of call to a generic class / interface more uniform. (#4050)
Model such calls as call operations, and compute the resulting type in
constant evaluation rather than in type-checking. This means we no
longer form non-constant `ClassType` or `InterfaceType` values, and that
we produce an `<error>` type in the case of bad argument lists rather
than a broken / meaningless `ClassType` / `InterfaceType` that doesn't
actually represent a type. This in turn suppresses some follow-on
diagnostics.

Richard Smith ffc3327959 Factor out common work of building a new constant for an imported instruction. (#4043)
In some cases this is just a refactoring; in others, we no longer import
both an instruction in no block plus a constant instruction, resulting
in creating fewer instructions. The non-constant version of the
instruction always ended up unreferenced in the affected cases.

Following up on a comment in #4042.

Richard Smith 4aa34978eb Import support for tuple, struct and integer values. (#4042)
These can be imported as the argument values for a generic. Also, the
name of a generic is modeled as a `StructValue`.
