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.
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)`.
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.
The main direction of this change is the edits to `destroy.carbon`
(matching in both prelude and min_prelude).
Previously there was a no-op blanket impl for `Destroy`, which hid all
missing implementations of `Destroy`. This does a few things:
- Sets up builtin aggregate destruction for struct and tuple types as
before, but also adds C++ class types and array types to the same
handling. (all as a TODO for actual implementation)
- Also maybe-unformed destruction, for now at least. (there's a chance I
may try a different approach on this, but the impl lookup wasn't working
as I'd hope in order to write it in code)
- Adds handlers for simple things that are easy to do in code: `type`,
`bool`, pointers. (because these are no-op destruction)
- Redirect `const T` destruction to `T` destruction.
This leaves as future issues:
- `partial T` destruction. (this can't be done similar to `const`
because it only works for non-`final` class types; I think `class`
definitions should just generate what's needed)
- Destruction of other prelude-provided types. (will probably come up as
we implement class destruction, that the adapted builtin type doesn't
implement `Destroy` -- but may end up special-casing that in a way that
moots it)
This moves the `&` operator from `facet_types.carbon` to
`convert.carbon` because more things need to handle type and now that
we're getting separate copy and destroy interfaces. It should be
low-cost (an interface and builtin) so hopefully this is the right
balance for complexity and re-use.
A few tests are also edited in order to focus them more on what they
intend to test, and avoid a `Destroy` dependency.
This is in support of a goal of changing the blanket `destroy` impl to
use (roughly):
```
private fn CanAggregateDestroy() -> type = "type.can_aggregate_destroy";
// Handles aggregate type destruction.
impl forall [AggregateDestroyT:! CanAggregateDestroy()] AggregateDestroyT as Destroy {
fn Op[addr self: Self*]() = "type.aggregate_destroy";
}
```
That isn't done here because there's still other issues that migrating
raises. What this *does* do is add the builtin functions, and in
particular, support to `FacetTypeInfo` to make `CanAggregateDestroy`
work.
The "special requirement" approach in `FacetTypeInfo` allows us to
support restricting a blanket impl under the current approach of impls.
Maybe we'll find a cleaner approach that can work in the future, but
this fits into the current model by propagating similar to other
requirements. I'm using an enum mask because we have a number of similar
things to add (e.g. copy, move) but I'm not sure we need a full vector.
A few alternatives considered were:
- Supporting syntax more like `where .Self impls
TypeCanAggregateDestroy(.Self, SupportedInterface,
UnsupportedInterface)`. I think it'd be a little cleaner, but requires
better compile-time evaluation in order to assess the type of the call.
Right now it's expected to be a `FacetType` too early to make this work,
and I was concerned about pouring too much more time down this route.
- Providing an actual interface, in particular doing name lookup back
into `Core.` for an interface. This would've added name lookup overhead,
and the question of whether an `impl` exists.
- Generating an interface. This avoids the name lookup, but would still
raise the question of whether an `impl` should also be generated. Work
I've previously done generating interfaces for class destruction also
feels complex to both write and understand (an unfortunate issue).
- Still modeling as an `ImplsConstraint`, for example by defining a
special `InterfaceId::CanAggregateDestroy = -2` similar to what we do on
other ids. I was hesitant because of how this expands the number of
modes of `InterfaceId`, and things for consuming code to watch out for,
for what feels like a relatively niche set of use-cases that are only
interface-like.

If it's just `TypeType` then the `BindSymbolicName` appears directly in
type positions, but if it is replaced with another facet value, then we
would need to insert a `FacetAccessType` around it. By giving it a
`FacetType` type, like other `BindSymbolicName`s we make it consistent
and avoid having to introduce extra instructions.
This uses each vector's size as a barrier between lists, to eliminate
the possibility of incidental collisions between entries of different
lists. This is the same as is done inside `AddBlock`.
Decouples associated constants from being special cased in let handlers.
Enforces associated constant grammar restrictions in parsing instead of
checking.
Closes#5411
This is necessary if the source type is an adapter, as we would not
otherwise be able to determine what type it adapts and hence could be
converted to.
We add a virtual node (`CompileTimeBindingPatternStart`) as the first
child of `CompileTimeBindingPattern` which holds the identifier
underneath it, so that it is checked just before the type expression of
the `CompileTimeBindingPattern`. When we reach this virtual node during
check, we add `.Self` as a name in the current scope, and when we reach
`CompileTimeBindingPattern` we remove it from scope, which ensures it's
present during only the checking of the type expression for the compile
time pattern.
At the moment the `.Self` has a different type (it's a `TypeType`) than
other `.Self` in the facet type (which are a single `FacetType`), but
the intention is to immediately substitute it out of the facet type
entirely, replacing it with a reference to the compile time binding (a
`BindSymbolicName`) itself. A TODO has been added for this.

Change impls from `<interface>.impl` to `<self>.as.<interface>.impl`,
and *member* functions to `<parent scope>.<fn>` (non-member functions
exclude their parent scope). Stop special-casing builtin functions,
given the new naming scheme.
The purpose of this is to make it clearer when a member function is
being accessed and, if so, which member function. In particular, we
often access interface `Op` functions. The builtin function
special-casing was intended to help with that, but we still have lots of
`Op` functions. This particular approach should make the interactions
clearer.
This changes up queueing of block IDs a little because, in particular,
we need to process bodies of entities only after constants finish
processing. But, it should also result in less memory usage during
processing because it means we have less on the insts stack at any given
time, since we track a block rather than all instructions contained by
the block.
This switches from the `CollectNamesInBlock` approach for entities, to
instead traversing entities as they're encountered. For example, when
traversing constants, when a type is found, the entity will have its
block queued for processing.
This leads to a change in the traversal order, which affects
disambiguation done by numeric sequencing (since that's just showing the
traversal order).
This will allow for simpler "name based on name" logic. This is
something I plan to use for:
- impls: `<type>.as.<interface>.impl`
- functions: `<entity>.<member function>`
- Note an impl may be used as the entity for a bound function.
By naming the entities as they're encountered, I'll be able to rely on
the generated names rather than recalculating them.
To assist this, I'm also differentiating between the ambiguous and
disambiguated name. Otherwise, we could end up with things like
`<function>.<disambiguator>.<call>.<other disambiguator>`, where the
repeated disambiguator may not be necessary in order to get full
disambiguation. It's also a smaller delta from the current output.
Note, changing `Name` to a class felt appropriate given its shape. I was
also noticing that parts of its API were unused, and the class helps
detect unused private members.

In `BuildUnaryOperator`, `GetOperatorOpFunction` is treated as
desugaring, but `PerformCompoundMemberAccess` and `PerformCall` are not.
This treats all of destruction as desugaring.
This leads to some instructions being elided, because of `GetOrAddInst`
behaviors:
> // If the instruction has a desugared location and a constant value,
returns
> // the constant value's instruction ID. Otherwise, same as AddInst.
This changes instructions that previously had a non-desugared location
to instead have a desugared location, so if they also have a constant
value then the constant value can be used directly.
This changes `Destroy` to use an interface for its implementation.
Note that this change includes a lot of test updates. Even when
`Destroy` is a no-op, it still causes code generation as part of
determining that.
Originally I was trying to use ranges to cut down the scope of this, and
to a degree I think they have. But a flipside here is that cases where
no destructors should be generated -- particularly globals -- would be
needed to completely remove destructor calls. Even for ranges, the range
can often include the destructor placement. So I've shifted
frame-of-thought a little: accept a bunch of destructor churn, because
destructors are needed and will be prevalent. The verbosity is a feature
of the design to make desugaring apparent in IR, not a bug.
Now that included files can specify `EXTRA-ARGS`, this uses that to
handle min_prelude files. Also moves `As`/`ImplicitAs` out to a shared
file, partly because we duplicate it a few times over, partly just to
show that it works.
Also removes the `min_prelude/` subdirectories because many of these
files were touched by autoupdate regardless. I noticed one conflict for
`impl_thunk.carbon`, so renaming that one to
`impl_thunk_min_prelude.carbon`.
`GetArgReplacements` I simply noticed was unused, so removing it.
Where `--no-dump-sem-ir` is used, change to `--dump-sem-ir-ranges=only`.
Otherwise, add `--dump-sem-ir-ranges=if-present` with a TODO to change
to `only`.
Note, SemIR is affected just because the extra comments change line
numbers in files where splits aren't in use.
- Track the `VarPattern` instruction on the `VarStorage` instruction so
that it's available for name mangling.
- Mangle global variables based on the first binding name within their
pattern.
- Give global variables external rather than internal linkage, except if
they have no bindings whatsoever in their pattern.
- To support lowering references to bindings nested within a global var,
such as for `var (x: i32, b: i32)`, add some basic initial support for
reference constant expressions. Treat a global `var` as a reference
constant, and treat an aggregate access into a reference constant as a
reference constant.
This is making two inter-related changes:
- Change `file` to reuse the formatter logic of `constants` and
`imports`, meaning empty `file` scopes will be omitted
- Mark `<elided>` sections in blocks (not in non-block scopes, because
they're not as sequential)
I think this would probably have prevented the missed include in #5469
-- it would've just failed completely with a "missing prelude"
diagnostic.
Also note this excludes the included IR from output, because it's
probably low-value to print.
This was originally needed to support constant evaluation of name
expressions, but that's now done in a different way.
This is actually a step toward treating all patterns as constants. The
upcoming change will do so in a slightly different way, and so it will
simplify the review to start from a baseline where patterns are never
constant.
Adds an empty `min_prelude/destroy.carbon` in anticipation of turning it
into an interface. Update `no_prelude` tests to be `min_prelude` and
import it where needed; in some cases, modify the file to remove the
dependency (i.e., rewrite code to have nothing to destruct).
In preparation for shifting from `TypeId`s potentially representing
attached types to always representing unattached types, using
[terminology suggested on
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/963846118964350976/1359286326779973712).
This change causes us to track slightly more type spelling information
through SemIR.
One change that has significant impact on the SemIR output is that we
now build a `struct_type` instruction in each class representing the
types of the fields, including the spelling used for those types. This
is now no longer always identical to the corresponding canonical
`struct_type` for the object representation, so it's built separately
and owned by the class.
Also remove `TypeBlock` support entirely, as its only use was
representing `TupleType`s, which now use an `InstBlock`.
Instead of storing a `TypeId` that always refer to a facet type that
always contains exactly a single interface, store the interface
directly.
Also improve stringification of `LookupImplWitness` and witness access
into it, switching to using newly-added functionality for stringifying
specific interfaces.
