This continues work to eliminate pending generics/specifics and get them
to be interleaved with instruction imports. I'm trying to use
`FinishGenericOrDone` here as a way to help ensure that code correctly
handles generics, where the simple alternative would be for each
`TryResolveTypedInst` call `SetGenericData` directly (but which might
make it easier to call the wrong `ResolveResult` function, and we do
need the `GenericId`s to be passed).
Every test that used `addr` before #6283 should be using `ref` after
this PR. In most cases that was done in #6283, but this PR transitions a
few that I missed in that first pass. In addition, #6283 cloned the old
`addr` tests from `foo.carbon` to `foo_addr.carbon` in order to maintain
test coverage during the transition; this PR removes those cloned tests.
When importing an Interface or NamedConstraint, walk the block of
`RequireImplsId`s, and for each one:
- Import the RequireImplsDecl from it, which also imports the
`RequireImpls` structure and its id.
- Collect those decls and build a block of `RequireImplsId`s for the
local SemIR to reference from the Interface or NamedConstraint.
The import of RequireImplsDecl is done in a single phase instead of
three, unlike other decls. This is possible since require declarations
have no name, so they can't be referenced by instructions inside them,
thus there's no cycles to concern ourselves with.
Give TupleLiteral and StructLiteral a constant value, if their contents
have constant values. Their constant values are TupleValue and
StructValue respectively. This supports their ability to convert to a
constant type (or facet type).
This way when deduce finds a TupleLiteral as the argument to a
_symbolic_ facet type, it can also find a constant value to use for that
argument. This allows deduction to move onto step two, where it can
substitute into the symbolic parameter from previous deduced arguments,
and then perform the conversion from the TupleValue to the desired facet
type.
Allow `PerformBuiltinConversion()` to convert from a canonical
TupleValue or StructValue to `type` instead of only from literals. Then,
also support conversion from a symbolic binding of type TupleType or
StructType to `type`.
They are not used for impl lookup or verifying anything yet, but now
they appear in the textual semir.

The `RequireDecl` instruction points, via a `RequireImplsId` to a
`RequireImpls` structure in a `ValueStore`. That structure holds the
self-type and facet type, as well as the generic id and parent scope.
`RequireImpls` is always a generic since it only appears in an
`interface` or `constraint`, which both have a generic parameter `Self`
applied to all their members.
The `RequireDecl` instruction evaluates to itself, but drops the
decl_block_id since the instructions within the `require` declaration
are not required in the canonical value which is only used for import.
And import will want to import the `RequireImpls` structure along with
the `Interface` or `NamedConstraint` structure it is in, rather than
recreate it from the decl's instructions. This also avoids repeating all
the instructions within the `require` decl in the textual semir's
constants block.
Adding the `RequireImpls` to the `Interface` or `NamedConstraint`
structure is not yet done, so they are not available for impl lookup or
import yet.
Do this even if the operand is a `ConstType` instruction. This better
preserves the source form of the type, and avoids a special case.
Repeated `const`s are already flattened in constant evaluation, and this
special case also didn't prevent forming a `ConstType` whose operand is
`const` in general, only cases where the operand happens to literally be
a `ConstType` instruction.
This reverts commit eed21f6439.
Format the entity name into the instruction name for a FacetAccessType
of a SymbolicBinding. This means (T as type) gets formatted as
`T.as_type` instead of just as `as_type` for the non-canonical
FacetAccessType instruction. The same is already true for the canonical
SymbolicBindingType.
This requires declared FacetTypes to hold NamedConstraintIds (along with
a specific) that are named in an extend or impls requirement. We add
support to stringify and formatter to display the named constraints in
the facet type, and special case when a facet type contains a single
extend named constraint, like we did for a single extend interface.
This means that `RequireIndentifiedFacetType` can now fail, if the facet
type contains a forward-declared named constraint. Add the appropriate
diagnostics for each call to this function, and note the ones that
should change to `RequireCompleteFacetType` in the future with TODOs.
We also add tests for using facet types that can or can't be identified,
or completed, with named constraints in them.
They don't get stored anywhere yet, but this type checks the
declarations and diagnoses errors in their form, such as not placing a
facet type after `impls` or a type before it.
#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.

We give `Self` in an interface/constraint a location so it's not elided
when trying to dump the interface/constraint. We use the location of the
start of the definition, which is the scope for which the `Self` is
constructed and is available in.
The error message was saying "generic interface" but should say "generic
constraint"
There is one test that demonstrates the error message for interfaces,
but it's in tests for overloads, so add a more clearly dedicated test
for interface too.
`ImplWitnessTablePlaceholder` is the only non-type singleton instruction
(`ErrorInst` is a type; while `ImplWitnessTablePlaceholder` exposes
`TypeInstId`, it's only used as an `InstId`).
In order to allow simpler handling of singleton instructions, replace
`ImplWitnessTablePlaceholder::TypeInstId` uses with
`InstId::ImplWitnessTablePlaceholder`. Since the placeholder instruction
was never evaluated, this has no significant effect on behavior.

Part of #6280.
This is to avoid edge cases where there are multiple `ConstType`
instructions, which code may not handle appropriately. I was thinking
about this for #6279
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.
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.
This change makes dumping and debugging work again with InstIds that are
now tagged with the CheckIRId. The textual representation of an InstId
is changed from `irN.instM` back to `instM` but the `M` is now a hex
value with the tag as part of it, which is the same number that is
physically in the `InstId::index` field. This prevents any cases where
we would potentially print incorrect values for large InstIds.
We teach the `dump` command in lldb to parse hex values for InstId so
that we can paste these numbers back into the debugger.
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)`.
When deducing an argument against a type that is `<facet value> as type`
we don't care about the `as type` part of that expression. We want to
find an argument that can convert to the `FacetType` of the facet value
for the generic binding that is the `<facet value>`.
This was done after-the-fact in the Deduce switch, but we move this
canonicalization step to be more explicit and done up front at the start
of the Deduce loop. This:
- Avoids a trip through the Deduce loop for a `FacetAccessType`
parameter, just to deduce through it in the switch, which avoids convert
and creation of extraneous constant values.
- Uses the `GetCanonicalFacetOrTypeValue()` function so that when we add
`SymbolicBindingType` handling to that function it will apply to Deduce
as well correctly, instead of needing to handle both in the switch.
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.
Locations are similarly fragile, because adding a comment changes them.
This has made me pause when making prelude changes in #6144, so dropping
them for those cases.
Instruction ids aren't actually that interesting outside debugging, and
can be churny when doing other structural changes. I've seen this in
particular when doing singleton changes, which bump every instruction
id.
Note there are still other ways fragility from locations can crop up.
This shouldn't be considered a complete fix, but hopefully a small
improvement.
Given `fn f(T:! I, x: T)`, we have a facet type `I`, a facet value `T`
and a value `x` of type `FacetAccessType(T)`.
Previously we explicitly handled the case of member access on `x.F`
where the type is a `FacetAccessType` by looking through it at the facet
value, and then at its facet type. This is already something that impl
lookup does for us, so we can remove this special case.
We also previously had a complex branch handling the case `T.F` on a
facet value, because `PerformImplLookup()` in member access is expecting
a `TypeId`, not a facet value. However, the first thing that branch does
is convert the facet value to a type expression, forming a
`FacetAccessType`.
Unfortuntely, when combined, if we had `x.F` we would convert it from a
value of type `FacetAccessType` to a facet value, and then convert that
to a type as a `FacetAccessType` again. We see this extra
`FacetAccessType` disappear from the SemIR after this change.
In this change, we remove both the inlined replacement of
`PerformImplLookup()` and the explicit handling of `FacetAccessType`. We
drive all member access lookups on the `base_id`'s type through a single
`PerformImplLookup()` call. If the `base_id` is a facet value, to get
the TypeId to look into, we convert the facet value to a
`FacetAccessType`, reducing the complex special cases down to a single
line.
This makes convert more consistent, it always makes a FacetAccessType
for a facet value, rather than only doing so after lookup returns. The
intention for this is that FacetAccessType will evaluate to
SymbolicBindingType in the future, so this will expose that constant
value to impl lookup instead of the original facet value, which will
avoid impl lookup having to deal with `.Self` or `BindSymbolicName`
specifically.
Right now, the class destroy impl is incorrectly generated (first
discussed [in
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/941071822756143115/1418614787449032826)).
If we want it to be correct, deferred definition logic would need to be
added, and the declaration would need to be moved inside the `class`
scope (along with whatever generic logic that needs).
This instead switches to a blanket impl, to avoid creating latent bugs
with generating the `impl` and function body in the wrong scope. This
approach uses the same blanket impl as aggregate destruction that was
added by #6098.
The intent here is to allow progress on other parts of `Destroy`. For
example, under this model the implementation of the function body could
be done as part of lowering the specific.
If a `BindSymbolicName` is converted to `type` and then to its exact
`FacetType`, we get a `FacetValue` wrapping the `BindSymbolicName` but
providing no different information: it has the same witnesses and
`FacetType` as the original `BindSymbolicName`. Yet it is a different
constant value, creating multiple canonical forms with the same meaning.
Now we make that `FacetValue` with the same `FacetType` as the
`BindSymbolicName` it wraps evaluate back to the `BindSymbolicName`,
making it the unique canonical form.
This makes the "shortcut" in convert for avoiding impl lookup when
converting from `FacetAccessType` to `FacetType` in this exact scenario
work the same as doing the full impl lookup.

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.
Add `Dependent` value and initializing representations for types whose
representations are unknown because they are dependent. When generating
SemIR in such cases, use a worst-case initializing representation that
both provides a destination address and also propagates a potential
result value.
Use this to fix incorrect lowering and lowering crashes for specific
functions involving generic types that don't use a copy value
representation.
In lowering, be careful to distinguish between whether the initializing
representation for the generic return type uses a return slot (which
affects whether the SemIR declaration and call have one) and whether the
initializing representation for the specific return type uses a return
slot (which affects whether the LLVM IR declaration and call have one).
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.

When returning a value from a function whose return type has a by-copy
initializing representation, perform initialization like we do when the
return type has an in-place initializing representation. This makes our
SemIR representation more uniform, as the return expression will now
always be an initializing expression rather than a value expression, but
more importantly it means that attempts to return a non-copyable type by
value now fail, even if the type has a by-copy initializing
representation.
This catches a bunch of places where we were returning a value of an
unconstrained template parameter `T:! type`, which we were incorrectly
allowing because we didn't notice it was not copyable. Unfortunately
this then requires quite a few test updates.
Like #6034, this exposes a lowering issue where lowering crashes when
attempting to lower a specific copy operation for certain types; a
couple more tests are temporarily disabled here. An upcoming PR
dependent on this one will fix the issue and re-enable those tests.
Instead of hardcoding which types are copyable, add a `Core.Copy`
interface to perform copying. Move almost all the current copy support
to that interface. Some remaining pieces are still using builtin logic
after this PR:
* For tuples and structs, builtin logic is used to perform elementwise
copies. This also supports copying *adapters of* tuples and structs,
which seems like it may not be desirable, especially for non-extending
adapters. A `Copy` impl is provided for tuples of at most 2 elements, so
that `Core.Copy` constraints are satisfied, but we can't implement this
generally until we have variadics support, and don't yet have a
mechanism to generalize this to structs.
* For `enum` types imported from C++, builtin logic is used to perform a
copy. This is temporary until we have a mechanism to identify these
types from an impl in the prelude.
One lowering test in `toolchain/lower/testdata/class/generic.carbon` is
disabled for now, as it causes a crash in the lowering code due to an
ABI mismatch between the call signature in the lowered declaration of a
specific function and the call that is generated in the specific callee.
Fixing this is a little involved, and will be done in a separate PR.

Fixes#6029
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`.
Attach the cleanup to the `Temporary` instruction instead of to the
`TemporaryStorage` instruction. We create `TemporaryStorage`
instructions speculatively when creating an initializing expression, and
may overwrite those instructions with other instructions if it turns out
that a temporary is not required. Instead, wait until we finalize the
temporary and create a `Temporary` instruction to register the cleanup.
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.

The self access is important; for the test `generic_class.carbon` being
added to `toolchain/check/testdata/class/destroy_calls.carbon`, it was
using `%T.as.Destroy` instead of `%D.as.Destroy`, indicating the default
blank impl was being used instead of the type-specific version. That
test is trying to focus on the issue, but the delta is visible in a
couple other files in this PR, for example
`toolchain/check/testdata/class/generic/init.carbon`.
I'm separately working on getting rid of the default impl, which is how
I noticed this.
This makes all `.Self` references in a facet type canonically the same
(which will remain true iff they refer to the same `Self` type in the
future), removing the need to do more complex comparisons between them
using the EntityName, interface, and index. This allows the comparison
of types containing `.Self` references to be done correctly regardless
of where the `.Self` appears, as such type expressions will all be
canonically equal if they otherwise equal now, regardless of whether
they are written in the context where `.Self` could have seen different
`Self` facet types.
In order to retain access to constraints on a base `.Self` facet type,
in the case of applying `where` to an existing facet type, we:
- Give the base facet type as a `RequirementBaseFacetType` constraint so
that eval of `WhereExpr` can find and copy all the constraints off of
it.
- Introduce eager/early rewrite constraint resolution, which allows a
constraint to eagerly resolve access to earlier rewrite constraints
(`where .A = () and .B = .A` is eagerly transformed into `where .A = ()
and .B = ()`) before the full constraint resolution step. This allows
use of rewrite constraints in larger type expressions, such as `where .A
= () and .B = C(.A)` and `C` will know that the argument is `()`.
I was thinking about this for destruction, which I may not be able to
use it for, but still think this may be a good change to keep features
consistent.
toolchain/check/testdata/builtins/char/basics.carbon and
toolchain/lower/testdata/builtins/char.carbon are probably the most
interesting tests here. The parse tests is required because this adds a
new node kind, and we need coverage of it; but the attached info is
minor. There's a fair amount of test churn here because I'm adding the
Core.Char and Core.CharLiteral types as new singletons.
My intent here is that `CharId` is always a unicode code point, even
when the type is a `Char` and thus must be a single UTF-8 code unit
(single byte). This mainly means the stored value of a `CharValue` can
be printed internally without knowing the type.
