This makes the difference between errors and lower-level diagnostics
visible to users, and aligns the toolchain's behavior with the
expectations in `driver_fuzzer.cpp`.
Fix a bug where we would perform the computation of the return location
in SemIR after we have already used it in some cases, leading to
assertion failures during lowering. Instead, accumulate a sequence of
instructions to compute the return location in a temporary block, and
overwrite the return slot with those instructions when we perform
initialization.
StubReference is replaced by a more general SpliceBlock node, that takes
a code block and a result value, executes the instructions in the block,
and produces the result. This is used in the uncommon case where more
than one instruction is required to compute the return slot, which can
happen if we need to first emit a temporary and then index into it, or
if we need to perform multiple levels of indexing before we reach an
entity to initialize.
The speculative insertion of StubReferences after elements in an
argument list turned out to not be necessary, because we decided we want
to insert per-argument initialization steps after all arguments are
evaluated, rather than interleaving them. The StubReferences we insert
are causing some minor code complexity, so remove them.
We still create StubReferences when performing patch-ups of
already-emitted code, but we no longer ever need to look through them
when determining whether an initializer was a literal or when evaluating
a type expression.
This implements initializing expression semantics for structs and
tuples, following #2006 and discussions since.
Tuple and (and analogously, struct) literals are treated as having a
mixed expression category that is later resolved based on how the
literal is used, as either a tuple initializer or a tuple value, at
which point we create a `TupleInit` or `TupleValue` that represents the
formation of the tuple initializer or tuple value from the tuple
literal.
There's quite a lot of TODOs here, and the SemIR representation is still
not quite right, but this seems like a good place to checkpoint some
incremental progress.
- `Peek()` no longer returns a useful value, because we often don't
allocate a `NodeBlockId` until we finish building the block. Remove it
and update both its callers.
- Rename `PeekForAdd()` to `PeekOrAdd()` since it's no longer used to
get a block ID to add elements into.
- `PushForAdd()` was unused. Remove it.
- Add `NodeBlockStack::AddNode` to combine the operations of adding a
node and inserting it into a block.
Instead of modeling array initialization as a thin wrapper around tuple
initialization, handle it like a function call, with a return slot as
part of its input. This better matches how initialization via a call to
`ImplicitAs::Convert` will eventually work, and in particular lets us do
in-place initialization of arrays rather than always creating a
temporary.
`SemIR` now only stores complete blocks, and placeholders for blocks
where we need a block ID before we know the block contents.
This is a preparation step towards the new node block allocation design.
Building on #3214 and #3215, updates sem_ir yaml to be:
```
- filename: name
sem_ir: [ ... ]
```
Also, changes the textual format from `package { ... }` to `file
<filename> { ... }`. My thought on packages there is:
```
file "foo.carbon" {
package MyPackage
...
}
```
The reason for putting the file first is that it's easier if we put what
we're grouping on first, whereas the package is an "annotation" on the
file.
This better reflects the purpose of these semantics nodes, and prepares
for adding TupleValue and TupleInit nodes to represent forming values
and initializers from literals.
Continuing along with #3070. Note this is just a file rename, with BUILD
edits; every file previously in semantics/ should show as moved (except
maybe BUILDs, which split).
