This allows Clang to correctly generate the vtable for the exported
class.
There's still something wrong with new virtual functions in the Carbon
type (left a TODO) - I thought it might be related to not flagging
the CXXMethodDecl as virtual, but my initial experiments don't seem to
back that up, so I'll look into it further separately.
There's also a test regression due to an virtual (well, abstract
specifically, but I think it'd happen with a virtual one too) function
in an abstract class taking `self` by value being rejected since
the abstract class can't be instantiated. Not sure if this is a correct
change - the test's behavior could be preserved by using `ref self`
instnead of `self` in this function. Is that reasonable/expected? Should
we not require a type to be complete when passing by value if we can
compute the value representation without such completeness?

Not every entry in a C++ vtable corresponds to a function that we want
to import. For the holes, leave a `SemIR::InstId::None` in the vtable.
Also mark vtables that extend a C++ vtable as being non-Carbon-native so
we don't try to lower them (and crash on the `None` entries).
In particular, we leave holes for destructors, since we don't have
destructor declarations on the Carbon side that need to override them.
* For Carbon `base class C`, export as a regular C++ class.
* For Carbon `class C`, export with the C++ `final` keyword attribute.
* For Carbon `abstract C`, mark the destructor as pure virtual in cases
where no member function is abstract, or emit an error if the destructor
is not virtual.
To support the final point, mark the destructor of an exported class as
virtual if it overrides a virtual destructor from the base class.
In passing, fix a crash exporting fields if the class has an invalid
base type.
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.

This correctly renders the vtable in SemIR, including allowing overrides
in
Carbon-derived-from-C++ classes.
It doesn't work in lowering because clang walks the methods of the
CXXRecordDecl - and we currently don't export anything into the
CXXRecordDecl's methods (we do export the fields) - so that's next.
This also doesn't teach Clang to affirmatively emit the vtable
regardless of the types use in C++ code - or to have Carbon use the
vtable in an object's initialization.
https://carbon.compiler-explorer.com/z/88K9Kh5Wo shows the program
exiting with a garbage value copied from uninitialized memory.
This PR modifies `lower` to detect if the function lowered is the
entry point and doesn't specify a return type. If so, it emits
different LLVM IR to return int32 0, and modifies the lowered
function signature to match the int32 return type.
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`.
A destructor is added to the C++ class definition in
`CarbonExternalASTSource::CompleteType`. The destructor calls a Carbon
function that calls the `Destroy` operator.
When any field of a Carbon class is access from C++ for the first time,
all fields are exported as `clang::FieldDecl`s (this is necessary
because clang fields have an internal index that is initialized on first
use).
`ClangDeclStore` now provides bidirectional mapping. This allows looking
up a `ClangDeclId` by `InstId`, so when Carbon class fields are exported
they can be looked up that way.
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.
The FunctionDecl created for calling the Carbon thunk now takes a `self`
parameter for non-static methods, and the C++ thunk now passes an extra
argument for that `self` parameter when needed.
The CXXMethodDecl thunk created for calling methods now sets the storage
class appropriate depending on whether the method is static or not.
To reduce the number of parameters being passed around to thunk-building
functions, added a `FunctionInfo` struct and pass that around instead.
For calling non-`()` functions, the Carbon->Carbon thunk now takes an
extra reference parameter and writes the target function's return value
out to that parameter. (At the SemIR level this is how returns already
work, but adding this extra reference parameter is needed so that the
function is lowered correctly.) The C++ thunk now creates a local
variable to be initialized by the Carbon thunk, and then returns that
value to the original C++ caller.
Also declare them `inline` since we're putting the `always_inline`
attribute on them. Use the `internal_linkage` attribute rather than
`SC_Static` since it's a more precise mechanism and matches what we do
for static member functions in reverse interop (where `SC_Static` means
something else and would not give the function internal linkage).
We don't yet populate the bases or fields, so the class types show up as
empty classes in C++ for now. But we do allow calls to static member
functions.
This works by generating two thunks, one in C++ and one in Carbon. For
example, given this input:
```c++
// Carbon:
fn Callme(f: f32) {}
// C++:
void F() {
// This will call `Callme__cpp_thunk`
Carbon::Callme(1.0);
}
```
These functions are generated:
```c++
// Carbon:
fn Callme__carbon_thunk(ref f: f32) {
// Call the target function.
Callme(f);
}
// C++:
// C++ declaration for the Carbon thunk.
void Callme__carbon_thunk(float& f);
void Callme__cpp_thunk(float f) {
// Call the Carbon thunk with args passed by reference.
Callme__carbon_thunk(f);
}
```
For now, all arguments are passed by reference, even if they are simple
types like pointers or i32.
Functions with non-void return types are not supported yet.
This is already allowed as a builtin conversion, but the impl allows the
generics system to know about it, so that conversions like
`Optional(T*)` to `Optional(const T*)` are allowed. This in turn allows
a C++ `T*` to be implicitly converted to a C++ `const T*` in Carbon
code.
Instead of recursing back into Convert, make CppThunkRef conversion just
add an extra step to category conversion, performing a copy conversion
followed by an ephemeral reference binding conversion.
This is only fixing the decision about *whether* to produce a witness.
Implementation of the witness is still a TODO, though where a body is
generated, it should also precisely reflect where one _needs_ to be
generated.
Note the tests:
- toolchain/lower/testdata/function/generic/import_core_witness.carbon
- toolchain/lower/testdata/function/generic/import_unused_def.carbon
These tests can probably be produced _without_ Core.Destroy, but I found
the essence of them while trying to build //examples with Core.Destroy
and a simpler minimization wasn't striking me.

For #6830, add support for inline C++ fragments as a declaration rather
than as a packaging directive. For now, this uses `inline Cpp
<string-literal>;` as syntax. The prior `import Cpp inline
<string-literal>;` is left alone for the time being. We can decide
separately whether to remove that.
`inline Cpp` requires that there was at least one `import Cpp`. It's not
clear to me if that's the right design long-term, but it seems
reasonable for now.

This will be used for const-evaling functions. Splitting into a separate
commit since it touches a lot of test files, and a couple fail_todo
tests are no longer failing.
Since this requires using the `Mangler` class from `toolchain/check`,
moved it from `toolchain/lower` to `toolchain/sem_ir`.
The mangled name is then attached to the `FunctionDecl` with an
`AsmLabelAttr`.
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.

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.
Roll LLVM to `6811a83c81500ee373adfc0d9978ff9625a4cf1c`.
This includes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/183831 which
moved the functionality of `finish()` on `DiagnosticConsumer`s into the
destructors, and removed the `finish()` method. So, our callers to
`finish()` are migrated to cause the destructor to run at that time
instead.

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.

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`).

## Summary
Fixes the toolchain incorrectly allowing `{}` initialization for
non-aggregate C++ classes.
## Problem
When importing an empty C++ class, the toolchain was treating it as a
Carbon empty struct, which allowed initialization from `{}`. This is
incorrect for non-aggregate classes (e.g., those with user-declared
constructors).
```carbon
import Cpp inline '''
struct X { X(); }; // non-aggregate (has user-declared constructor)
''';
fn Make() {
var x: Cpp.X = {}; // incorrectly accepted, should be rejected
}
```
## Solution
Added a check for `clang_def->isAggregate()` in `ImportClassObjectRepr`
so that only aggregate classes get the empty struct representation.
**Before:**
```cpp
if (clang_def->isEmpty() && !clang_def->getNumBases()) {
```
**After:**
```cpp
if (clang_def->isEmpty() && !clang_def->getNumBases() &&
clang_def->isAggregate()) {
```
## Testing
Added test file
`toolchain/check/testdata/interop/cpp/class/non_aggregate_init.carbon`
with:
- Non-aggregate class (`struct X { X(); }`) - should reject `{}`
initialization
- Aggregate class (`struct Y {}`) - should accept `{}` initialization
Note: I couldn't run tests locally due to clang version requirements
(needs >= 19, have 17). The CI should validate the changes.

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.

Add a new builtin function `cpp.std.initializer_list.make` that takes an
array and returns a `std::initializer_list`, initialized to refer to
that array. When C++ initialization wants to perform a
`std::initializer_list`-from-array construction, synthesize a
declaration of a matching builtin function and use that to perform the
initialization.
Ideally we would specify this conversion as an impl of `ImplicitAs` in
the prelude instead of hardcoding it in the interop layer, but
unfortunately that's not currently possible, for various reasons -- we
can't make the conversion form-generic, we can't deduce the array length
from the initializer, and we can't deduce against the arguments of
imported C++ class templates yet -- so for now synthesizing a builtin
function on demand is the best we can do.

The general strategy here is to import the constructor with a signature
that directly matches the argument. The intent is that the imported
function will eventually be usable directly as the `ImplicitAs.Convert`
function in a generated `impl`.
For initialization from a tuple, for example `(1, 2)`, we import the
selected constructor with a signature that takes a tuple pattern:
`fn Class.Class((a: i32, b: i32)) -> Class;`
In order to support that, this PR also adds support in general for tuple
patterns in function signatures. It turns out the implementation was
already very close to allowing this.

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.
