Remove the type canonicalization mechanism and instead rely on constant
canonicalization to deduplicate types.
Rename the `Canonicalize*Type` functions to reflect that they're no
longer performing canonicalization. Switch code that creates types due
to semantic checking, rather than due to source syntax, to directly
create type constants through evaluation rather than creating an
instruction and evaluating it to produce a separate constant
representation.
The mapping from `const (const T)` that was previously performed by type
canonicalization is now implemented in expression evaluation instead.
The value `<error>` is now treated as a constant value, with a special
property that an instruction involving `<error>` that could possibly be
constant evaluates to `<error>`. This helps avoid producing follow-on
errors when an error occurs as a subexpression of an expression, such as
a type, that is intended to be constant.
This change adds a `BindSymbolicName` instruction for generic bindings,
paralleling the existing `BindName`. A mechanism is also added to allow
both kinds of binding to be accessed uniformly, for convenience in the
case where the two different kinds of binding are treated the same.
Generic bindings of type `type` are allowed to be used as types,
although no operations are provided for such types. For now lowering
treats these types as empty structs, which seems like a reasonable
lowering for non-monomorphized unconstrained types.
The goal here is to make the representation more uniform so that we can
start adding different kinds of binding -- checked generic bindings and
template bindings -- across both function parameters and local `let`
declarations.
With this change, the entry in the parameter list for the function is
the name binding, not the Param itself, which has some ripple effects on
consumers of that list that want to access the parameter rather than the
binding. This is expected to change again when we start adding more of
the pattern matching SemIR, but this seems good enough for now.
I was suggesting this because `FloatingPoint` is pretty long. `int` and
`float` should be familiar abbreviations. `unsigned` should be familiar
to developers too, but `UnsignedInt` still feels usefully clearer for
the additional chars.
These are manual fixes; mostly from clang-tidy, some from clangd (which
notes unused includes).
In typed_insts, adding inlline due to misc-definitions-in-headers. Per
discussion, clang-tidy is wrong, but inline silences it.
For parameter name skew in definition versus declaration, I'm just using
the name from the definition.

Instead of ad-hoc conversion tracking on some kinds of nodes that
conversion creates, consolidate tracking into a single node kind. This
frees up an operand on `Init` instructions that can be used to store the
destination.
Add a `NameId` that is effectively just a wrapper around a `StringId`,
with
some additional predefined values for names that don't correspond to
strings, such as the name of `self` or the function's return slot.
Following up on discussion yesterday regarding this split.
Note, I'm expecting #3341 to do IdentifierId -> NameId in SemIR. It
might be worth adding NameId creation directly to StringStore if you're
content with this setup though.
Adds a `BoundMethod` SemIR node to represent an `x.F` bound method, with
a new builtin type `BoundMethodType`. Reorganized conversion of call
expression arguments to also check and convert a `self` parameter in the
implicit parameters list.
In passing, improved diagnostics and error recovery for bad call
expressions. We now build a `call` node with the appropriate type and
value category, but with invalid arguments, if the argument conversion
failed, and diagnose calls to non-callable expressions.
`addr self` methods don't work properly yet; the `addr` is ignored for
now.

Track the fields in a class, and generate a corresponding struct type as
the object representation for the class. For now, we always use a
pointer as the value representation for a class.
1. In general, `semantics_ir` -> `sem_ir`, to match the directory name.
2. For the list of `ValueStore`-related accessors on `SemIR::File`, add
them to `check`'s `Context` object, shortening access.
Finishing what #3316 started, add more bespoke ValueStore-like
structures to File. With this, the things which previously had somewhat
boilerplate Add/Get functions are now all on side classes, giving a
uniform style of API for calling.
Note, I was on the fence about making things public on ValueStore. If
it's preferred that I make some things there protected I certainly can,
there's just a trade-off that may mean more distinct child/wrapper
types.
This is a prerequisite for class support, where a class can be
referenced as a type before it becomes complete. For example, given:
```carbon
class A {
fn F(a: A);
class B {}
var b: B;
}
fn A.F(a: A) {}
```
we need to lower `B` before we lower `A`, even though `A` is used as a
type first.
This will also start catching some cases where we don't require a type
to be complete despite using it, as we now only lower types that are
required to be complete.
Remove the poison values for struct and tuple literals. We don't need
those any more, because we never generate references to those literals
as values, and we don't have a type to use for them because we never
require the type of a literal to be complete, only the type of the
entity initialized by the literal, which can be different, for example
when initializing an array from a tuple literal or a class from a struct
literal.
This doesn't affect the output: `llvm::Type` objects that are not
referenced by an LLVM module don't affect the IR for that module, and
the order in which `llvm::Type`s are created doesn't affect anything
either.
Building on #3313, start using ValueStore on File. Functions and classes
are straightforward. Types here I present as a borderline case where
maybe we want a more bespoke API, but maybe this is okay? Most other
things probably need a slightly different API, which although I might do
that for a consistent interface, felt more out-of-scope for this change.
Split `node.h` into separate files for ID types (`id.h`) and for typed
nodes (`typed_nodes.h`). The per-node-kind data is now specified as part
of declaring the typed nodes, and is removed from the node kinds
x-macros, which now simply enumerate the node kinds.
Building on #3311, change SemIR to use the SharedValueStore. Since this
removes hermeticity, raw output no longer prints ints, reals, and
strings. TokenizedBuffer accessors are modified to return IDs because
values are often passed through in semantics without needing to read
them.
I would've put SharedValueStores on Context, except for the
GetArrayBoundValue convenience method. I felt awkward removing that, so
it's on File, at least for now. That's then used by the formatter and
Lower too. The flipside of this is that TokenizedBuffer has a
SharedValueStores only for printing, so maybe that's similar enough to
what File is doing.
This doesn't start shifting other SemIR members to ValueStore, but that
seems like a next step.
Using the computed value representation, fix lowering of struct and
tuple values to use the value representation rather than the object
representation. Fixes an issue found in the review of #3257.
This currently causes us to compute value representations of all types
as they are created, which generates substantially more SemIR to
represent types. We can get some of that back by deferring computation
of the value representation until the type is required to be complete,
but some of the additional cost here will persist with this approach.
I also considered making the computation of the value representation
type be something that lives entirely within the lowering phase, but I
think that's not the right approach in the longer term, because the
value representation will be semantically visible and relevant once we
start allowing it to be customized.
We should consider moving the nodes that exist to compute canonical
non-local types, including value representations, out into a separate
global block. That will clean up the SemIR representation substantially,
and make the SemIR produced for a function not depend on which types we
happen to have encountered beforehand. But that's not being done in this
PR.

Bug found by fuzzing. Problem was untyped SemIR nodes had an invalid
type id, which was retrieved by `HandlePrefixOperator` and then passed
to `context.GetUnqualifiedType`, ultimately performing an invalid access
in `semantics_ir_->GetNode`.
We prefer to make a placeholder type for functions and namespaces to
remove the need for checking for the untyped case everywhere. Eventually
functions will have their own types, but this approach will be needed
for namespaces (and perhaps other non-first-class entities like unbound
methods and interface members) long term.

This is shorter, more closely connected to code using the typed node
types, and avoids using the ambiguous word `Node` in places referring to
typed `SemIR` nodes.
Replace `SemIR::Node::GetAsFoo` and `SemIR::Node::Foo::Make` with
`SemIR::Foo` class that represents a particular kind of node, with named
fields.
Rename `SemIR::IntegerLiteral` and `SemIR::RealLiteral` to
`IntegerValue` / `RealValue` to better reflect their purpose and avoid a
name collision with the corresponding `SemIR` node kinds.
Remove `NodeKind::Invalid` and the `SemIR::Node` default constructor
entirely, as they were not used for anything.
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.
This removes the risk of accidentally performing a vector copy when
calling these functions, and is a preparation step towards the new node
block allocation design.
This required changing how we build call expressions. Instead of
finishing the argument block and then later adding a return slot, we now
delay finishing the argument block and checking for conversions to
parameter types until after we've added the return slot to it.
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).
