`ValidateRun` is explorer-specific, so move out the error production to
be specific within explorer. This is related to other work I'm trying to
do which would make this require more special-casing to maintain; since
the toolchain doesn't need it, it's easier to drop.
I'm refactoring logic to try to make these files more manageable,
particularly as I'm looking at ways to use more threads. I'm renaming
FileTestBase::TestContext to TestFile and FileTestBase::TestFile to
TestFile::Split to try to be more consistent in how we talk about test
files and file splits in general. This change is not expected to change
any behavior, it's just refactoring.
This PR has two commits:
- Copying files for viewing deltas in GH
- Moving logic
The delta of the two commits is the main PR. The second commit can be
viewed on its own to see the delta versus file_test_base.* files where
the logic currently rests (there's still a reordering in run_test.cpp as
part of making one function static).
This should make it easy to add more tests which need the specific
behavior here. It also isolates where we reach into GoogleTest's
internals to a single common place.
Small cleanup for code sharing. Note, `*ReadFile` will trigger a
CHECK-failure on error; the relevant implementations would previously
have failed silently (empty string).

Also makes the style guide explicitly comment on void, but this was the
intent IIRC because it matches Carbon's `-> ()` (and "always" versus
"except for void", which we definitely went back and forth on).
Includes adjusting function pointers, which I definitely forget this
syntax works sometimes.
Excludes utils/tree_sitter/src/scanner.c because it claims to be C, but
really we should probably fix that to be cpp.
Adds @LSP-CALL and refactors LSP keyword handling to implicitly handle a
little more of the LSP structure. This is coming out of textDocument
call handling, where this at least reduces some boilerplate of
`"params": {...}`.
- Escape dumped token strings (what got me here)
- Change the quoting from backticks to quotes
- Also add a `FormatEscaped` helper function for this, updating other
`.write_escaped` uses
Switching from RE2 to StrReplaceAll because it seems a fair fit for what
actually needs to be done here. Also pick up \t for visibility reasons.
This came up because clangd's LSP-related APIs print carriage returns.
In order to write language-server tests, we need some way to pass stdin
input. This adds support for a split "// --- STDIN" which will be
provided as a temp file for testing.
Note this does more stdin -> input_stream style renaming, this is just
bugging me more since I know shadowing works but it can be subtle to
read, particularly since I'm now making direct use of stdin in a handful
of spots.
The language server needs stdin, and for tests we should be passing it
around. My intent is to pass in a faux stdin to Driver for language
server tests.
As long as I'm adding a new parameter, I was looking at also changing
the way streams are passed in to Driver for style (pointers since
they're held past construction lifetime). Since these are all stored in
DriverEnv, I thought it might be a net improvement to use the struct
directly, getting more explicit parameter names and also removing the
need for `SetFuzzing`.
I'm trying here to avoid functional changes, but there are a couple
additional fixes like removing an obsolete `find_insensitive` and
refactoring how `ValidateOptions` handles errors (because it reduces the
number of spots that operate on error_stream).
This adds a RawStringOstream. Versus TestRawOstream, which is
consolidated over to RawStringOstream, it uses a string for storage
instead of a vector, mainly to support move-to-string semantics. Versus
llvm::raw_string_ostream, it owns the string and supports pwrite (which
is needed for driver and its fd_ostream compatibility requirement).
This converts most uses of llvm::raw_string_ostream, leaving behind a
few in InstNamer that explicitly cannot own the string, such as:
```
llvm::raw_string_ostream(name)
<< "_" << tree.tokens().GetColumnNumber(token);
```
I have this as its own library so that it can use CHECK.
Yes this doesn't save much code, but it's code we repeatedly write.

Add `EXTRA-ARGS:` support to file_test, to add arguments without
overriding the default arguments. Use `EXTRA-ARGS: --no-dump-sem-ir` to
turn off SemIR dumping and thus SemIR testing in the int builtin tests,
which validate correct behavior through diagnostics instead.
This doesn't get us any closer to supporting more targeted SemIR dumping
/ testing, but this seems to be a generally useful feature anyway. Most
existing
tests using `ARGS` have been switched over to using `EXTRA-ARGS`.
Requested in review of #4716.
As part of migrating to the latest bazel configurations in #4729, I'm
running into proto toolchain issues. For example:
"Error: <target @@protobuf+//:cc_toolchain> (rule
'proto_lang_toolchain') doesn't contain declared provider
'ProtoLangToolchainInfo'"
Although we may eventually want more use of proto, right now the only
use is for the explorer fuzzer. The explorer codebase is essentially
frozen, so continuing to run it isn't gaining us much (in fact, we've
already disabled autofuzzing for it).
So, rather than trying to fix the proto setup, this change:
1. Deletes `explorer/fuzzing`
2. Removes proto portions of `testing/fuzzing`, which were only in-use
by the explorer
3. Removes some ancillary proto support, which would otherwise break
from the bazel changes and would be difficult to validate as "still
working"
This change is partly isolated in order to make it easier to revive bits
of (3).
I was wondering, instead of treating `misc` differently and enabling
specific checks, maybe we can flip that since we actually seem okay with
most of the checks?
The main check I'm enabling, with significant edits here, is
`misc-no-recursion`. But maybe this is helpful to enable, even with the
necessary NOLINTs, since we want to avoid recursion in the toolchain?
This PR shows some example fixes in subst.cpp (which are more stylistic,
since the code shouldn't actually have recursed due to its structure; I
think we could remove the warning on TryResolveInst the same way). Some
also just don't seem worth fixing, like those in tests files (I didn't
see a way to exclude files in .clang-tidy, so instead I'm using
NOLINTBEGIN). But I think we might actually want to fix inst_namer, and
there's enough in convert that I didn't look closely.
Also, I made some protected -> private style fixes based on
`misc-non-private-member-variables-in-classes` (this is also how I
noticed `class Real` versus `struct Real`). With node_stack, it looks
like the `protected` wasn't even used. [Per
style](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Access_Control),
data members should be private outside tests. But since we can't
trivially exclude `protected` members in tests, I'm turning it off -- I
don't view it as offering enough benefit on the whole.
migrate_cpp issues are preexisting (I believe we just aren't monitoring
it), but changes there make `bazel build --config=clang-tidy -k //...`
work cleanly.

Disables three new warnings because they lean more towards style
conflicts than fixes. I've brought these up on #style.
Other than that, mostly fixing basic issues, and things that
clang-tidy-20 seems to fire where clang-tiday-16 didn't. One particular
curious case is `llvm::StringLiteral::data()` uses, which are flagged as
not strictly null-terminated; I'm switching to `const char*` in those
spots which matches `llvm::formatv`'s format argument, but feels worse.
I'm removing `run_clang_tidy.py` here because I'm observing it give
fewer warnings than `bazel build --config=clang-tidy -k
//toolchain/...`. The latter matches how we enforce in GitHub actions
(and also caches results, and suppresses output for files that have no
issues), so I'm dropping the bespoke script.
This is essentially the result of looking at `.begin()` uses. We also
frequently do `std::shuffle`, but unfortunately STLExtras doesn't
provide a wrapper for that.
This changes to an `Error` return to let the driver do the "error: "
prefix, except for one case with `help` that needs more work to change
(I'm not planning on picking up that TODO). It also changes
capitalization, backtick use, and a few minor punctuation things to try
to better match the diagnostic style.
This also adds `Error` matchers so that the changes to command line
testing are clearer.
As discussed in #4530 . This required switching to using
`llvm::IntrusiveRefCntPtr` in a number of places.

This avoids producing an LSan leak report for the objects that got
leaked by the crash, which would otherwise scroll all the useful
information about the crash off the terminal.
Use the diagnostic kind printing in #4425 to catch when we have
diagnostics with no tests.
This merges a couple other use-cases of filegroup manifests into a
common rule.
Note I do add a few tests for things, and also some things are
_actually_ unit tested (just not in the file_test structure). But I
stopped when I realized that dealing with merge conflicts is going to be
a pain. I might end up reverting test changes (as part of merge conflict
resolution) and doing narrow test additions in a separate PR, after both
this and #4425 are merged.
Since formatting covers comments, and the CHECK lines are in comments,
it can create recursive behaviors. This introduces AUTOUPDATE-SPLIT as a
way of formally designating a split to exclusively be used for
autoupdate output.
One of the things that ClangRunnerTest is doing is capturing
stderr/stdout because clang prints to it directly. This adds support for
that to FileTest.
I'm renaming the current `capture_output` field to `dump_output` because
the name is ambiguous after this change, and the flag is already named
`--dump_output`. It's still not great, but at least it's more distinct.
Note ClangRunner still doesn't use the vfs; that still needs work. I'm
just moving the NoArgs test over as a trivial test of the functionality.
This switches `DCHECK` and `FATAL` as well.
The goal is to reduce the code size impact of these assertions so that
we can keep more of them enabled. Currently, the largest cost I see from
`CHECK` is not the actual check or the cold code itself, but actually
the failure to inline trivial functions due to the presence of the cold
code. This means that our goal isn't to reduce apparent code size in the
final binary but the LLVM IR cost assessed for these routines in the
inliner, which closely correlates with code size but is a bit different.
As discussed in #4283, experimentation shows that a single function call
with a minimal number of arguments is the lowest cost model for these.
This is easily achieved with a format-string API that internally uses
`llvm::formatv`. This PR is essentially the `CHECK` version of #4283.
However, the check macros are substantially harder to make work with
both format strings and streaming because they also take a condition.
Also, unexpectedly, I was very successful at devising a regular
expression based automated rewrite from the streaming to the format
string form with only low 10s of manual fixes. This includes compacting
strings broken up across lines, etc. Given how well that went, I've
prepared this PR which just directly switches to the format string API
and migrate everything to use it.
One nice side-effect is that the format string approach ends up greatly
simplifying the implementation here as well.
This is ... *shockingly* effective. Parsing speeds up by more than 3%
with just this change. And checking speeds up by **8%** with this change
alone:

This opens the door for replacing all `library ...` lines in toolchain
test files with `library "[[@TEST_NAME]]";`. That's technically more
typing in a lot of cases, but OTOH means we can just do some copy-paste
boilerplate and stop carefully writing library names.
Also cleans up the test setup, because it's getting messy. I'm trying to
make it easier to see the divisions of tests and the output associated
with them. StringSwitch looked like a way to do this, with a few edits
to make it work nicely.
From the driver's perspective, `FindPreludeFiles` is closely tied to
`compile`. This makes it difficult to refactor commands without
affecting the test dependencies on `FindPreludeFiles`. `InstallPaths`
seems like a decent home since it is responsible for the install
structure.
I'm switching to an `Error` return to allow callers to choose how to
handle it (e.g., in file tests, we typically don't want the direct error
stream).
This teaches our source generation tool to create interesting type
references. This include both referencing a weighted distribution of
explicitly specified types, and referencing types that are being defined
in the generated file.
Generating more interesting explicit types will exercise more of
Carbon's prelude, but because C++ doesn't have an automatic prelude with
fundamental types like `int64_t` or tuples, we include some minimal
headers when generating the C++ analog. This likely makes the comparison
more fair rather than less fair as Carbon's toolchain isn't processing
just the generated source, but also its prelude.
The current set of fixed types is based primarily on the set of types
that the toolchain currently implements and a set that seems reasonably
interesting to exercise for compile time performance. We want to try to
cover things that should be optimized in the toolchain, even if a single
source file might not typically hit all of them.
The weights of everything are completely arbitrary, based on intuition
and some hand inspection of some random source files. There is also an
intentional bias towards non-zero coverage and so the tail is much
larger than it should be in reality. The result is that the weights more
reflect the _priority_ of optimizing compile time than the _observed_
distribution in practice. We can refine the weighting scheme in the
future though, potentially with multiple modes to separate coverage from
maximally representative weights, etc. The goal is just to have a
starting point.
The scheme for referencing the defined types requires some care and
complexity to avoid referencing types before they are defined while
still referencing all of the types defined and ensuring the number of
references is stable even as the order is randomized to avoid fixed
patterns in the source code.
All of this also triggered some minor refactoring of the state used to
generate class definitions in the source generator. There are probably
some good follow-on refactoring opportunities, but I'd prefer to leave
those to future work.
I don't have any tests here because most of how this is observable is
already tested -- the existing tests ensure the file sizes remain
consistent and that the generated code is compiled correctly. But if
folks have any ideas of useful tests here, happy to add them.

Discussed in the toolchain meeting today - we'd like to try having this
on by default and see if the cost isn't too high.
The nodebug test is a bit verbose, because it doesn't have the
`--exclude-dump-file-prefix` that test_file would usually add. Is there
a nicer way I could write this test to verify that --no-debug-info does
what it's meant to?

I'm trying to keep work under the `/website` subdirectory so that the
misc files don't interfere with unrelated views of the repository. The
`prebuild.py` script does some work to move things around and add
frontmatter, helping the jekyll generation.
I'm using the "just-the-docs" theme because I think it's a decent match
for what we want, and getting jekyll up and running with it wasn't too
difficult. Note #1526 proposed using Docusaurus; I started out there,
but was having trouble getting it working with newer versions. The
plugins in particular I got stuck trying to make work, which sent me
looking for options that we could have working with less customization.
I do lean towards jekyll though, because it's what GH uses so hopefully
we can get a more consistent experience.
Having a website has been approved for a while under #1492, but hasn't
been a priority. I'm mainly doing this because I want to just be able to
point people to carbon-lang.dev and have easy links that way.

Consolidates both main libraries into `//testing/base`, and factors out
the exe path handling for benchmarks and unit tests into a common
library to remove duplication. Refactors how that logic is managed to be
cleaner and avoid a confusing bool that came up in code review.
Updates all the tests and benchmarks that use these. I still need to
update other benchmarks to use the same main, but I wanted to keep this
PR somewhat minimal.
This also fixes a bug noticed in passing that the compilation benchmark
didn't have the required dependency on the benchmark library itself,
just the benchmark main library.
The big addition here is a very, very rough and very early skeleton of a
source code generator framework. This builds upon the lexers identifier
synthesis logic, improving on its framework and wiring it up with the
most rudimentary of source file generation. This is just enough to
roughly replicate my "big API file" source code benchmarks.
The source generation works *very* hard to both vary the structure and
content of the source as much as possible while ensuring the same
*total* amount of each construct is in use, from bytes in identifiers to
line breaks, parameters, etc. This lets us generate randomly structure
inputs that should consistently take the exact same amount of total work
to compile.
The complex identifier synthesis logic from the lexer's benchmark is
moved over here and the lexer uses APIs in the source generator for
identifiers. The other source synthesis in the lexer's benchmark isn't
yet moved over, but should likely be slowly absorbed here as it can be
refactored into a more principled and re-usable form. Some bits may stay
of course if they're just too lexer-specific.
Next, this adds a simple end-to-end compile benchmark for the driver
that directly and much more clearly reproduces all the measurements I've
done manually up until now. It should also be easy to extend to more
patterns over time as we add support to the source generator to produce
those patterns.
Last but not least, I've added a tiny CLI to the source generator so
that you can generate source code manually. This is especially nice for
generating demo source code to actually run through the driver or look
at in an editor. The CLI can also generate C++ source code which lets us
do some minimal comparative benchmarking between Carbon and C++/Clang.
There are huge number of TODOs in the source generation framework. This
is going to be a large ongoing effort I suspect.
There are also a bunch of rough edges I've left to try and get this out
for review sooner. I've left TODOs for refactorings that really need to
be done here, but hoping these can maybe be follow-ups. If not, please
flag and I'll try to layer them on here.
Sample compile benchmark output, nicely showing where we are w.r.t. our
goal speeds (2x behind on lex and check, 5x on parse) at least on a
recent AMD server CPU:

This also allows us to default construct installs in an error state,
which is useful for cases like fuzzers where we want to default
construct a global, but then re-initilaize it That said, happy to
consider alternative designs here.
Most of these are places where we failed to include a header file and
simply never got an error about this. The fix is to include the header
file.
Most other cases are functions that should have been marked `static` but
were not. Finding all of these was a main motivation for me enabling the
warning despite how much work it is.
One complicating factor was that we weren't including the `handle.h` for
all the state-based handler functions. While this isn't a tiny amount of
code, it is just declarations and doesn't add any extra dependencies. It
also lets us have the checking for which functions need to be `static`
and which don't. For the `parse` library I had to add the `handle.h`
header as well, I tried to match the design of it in `check`.
I have also had to work around a bug in the warning, but given the value
it seems to be providing, that seems reasonable. I've filed the bug
upstream: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/94138
I also had to use some hacks to work around limitations of Bazel rules
that wrap `cc_library` rules and don't expose `copts`. I filed a bug for
`cc_proto_library` specifically:

This has is a nice-to-have for me. Frequently I want to run a specific
test, and end up digging through output to be able to copy-paste the run
line. This uses TIP lines to inject the command into the file when using
AUTOUPDATE.
Note, one of the reasons I want this is because "bazel test
//toolchain/testing:file_test --test_output=all" has been regularly
exceeding bazel's output limit for me (workaround is either opening the
output file or specifying an obscure output limit flag), making it a
little harder for me to get the commands. However, frequently I'm adding
a file and want to iterate on it, so that's really the use case I have
in mind here.
Just spotted these while looking at warnings that seem to fire on our
code are probably are things we'd fix if we saw them. None of these seem
important FWIW.
Also removes a redundant flag that is part of `-Wall`.
I have a follow-up for the high-value warning I spotted that motivated
me to look at all of this. But it's noisy so kept it as a separate PR.
The install directory contains the BUILD logic for creating an
installable tree of data files and executables for the toolchain, and
a library to facilitate toolchain code accessing the paths to their data
within this installation.
Then adds an installation of LLD in a synthetic LLVM installation, and
teaches the Clang runner to configure this and use it for linking
instead of the system linker.
Currently, the install paths only really manage access to the LLVM
binaries installed and used by the Clang runner for linking, but
eventually other data files like the prelude and runtime libraries will
be fleshed out as well. There are TODOs for moving more things over here
such as the prelude.
One interesting aspect of this is where to put helpers like parts of
LLVM in our install. This PR suggests nesting those files under
`lib/carbon`. While using a `lib` subdirectory isn't a perfect fit for
the FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard), having a single location where
private data is collected is significantly superior to spreading them
across the system. This also matches similar patterns used by Clang
itself and several other language toolchains and standard libraries.
The install directory also provides a natural place for us to build out
packaging rules to create installable packages in various formats, but
that remains future work.

This also factors out the code for doing this location from the driver
to a tiny helper library.
The motivation for this is letting tests locate data files like the
prelude or other files needed by the toolchain more easily. A subsequent
PR will use this heavily in the Clang runner and related logic for
example.
Right now, debugging a crash means errs never flushes: it's buffered in
the string. As a consequence, -v doesn't print anything. By stopping the
output capture in --dump_output, it prints directly for debugging.
This is just to be able to directly run the driver (e.g., `bazel run
//toolchain/driver:carbon compile foo.carbon`); it shouldn't affect
anything else.
