An invalid parse due to an error token isn't likely a great diagnostic
as it will already have been diagnosed by the lexer. A common case to
start handling that is when the parser encounters an invalid token when
expecting an expression.
This removes a number of unhelpful diagnostics after the lexer has done
a good job diagnosing.
This also means that there may be parse tree errors that aren't
diagnosed when there are lexer-diagnosed errors, so track that.
Follow-up to #4430 that almost finishes addressing its diagnostic TODO.
This instruction represents integer values, whether they come from
literals or calculations, so it the old name is inaccurate. I also plan
to rename `BigInt` to `IntLiteral` based on recent discussion and this
change aims to avoid confusion stemming from the same name being used
for two different things.
I'm not renaming `FloatLiteral` because recent discussion suggests we
may want distinct `FloatLiteral` versus `FloatValue` representations in
SemIR.
This is in particular to avoid churn from changes such as #4370. I think
the import list can be helpful (particularly to understand what the
library is aware of), but it's a different trade-off for the prelude
package due to the implicit imports.
This PR makes it so that types can implement the `IndexWith` interface
so that they can provide their custom indexing behavior.

This rejects type literals with more digits than we can lex without
APInt's help, and using a custom diagnostic. This is a pretty arbitrary
implementation limit, I'm wide open to even more strict rules here.
Despite no special casing and a very simplistic approach, by not using
APInt this completely eliminates the lexing overhead for `i32` in the
generated compilation benchmark where that specific type literal is very
common. We see a 10% improvement in lexing there:
```
BM_CompileAPIFileDenseDecls<Phase::Lex>/256 39.0µs ± 4% 34.8µs ± 2% -10.86% (p=0.000 n=19+20)
BM_CompileAPIFileDenseDecls<Phase::Lex>/1024 180µs ± 1% 158µs ± 2% -12.22% (p=0.000 n=18+20)
BM_CompileAPIFileDenseDecls<Phase::Lex>/4096 731µs ± 2% 641µs ± 1% -12.31% (p=0.000 n=18+20)
BM_CompileAPIFileDenseDecls<Phase::Lex>/16384 3.20ms ± 2% 2.86ms ± 2% -10.47% (p=0.000 n=18+19)
BM_CompileAPIFileDenseDecls<Phase::Lex>/65536 13.8ms ± 1% 12.4ms ± 2% -9.78% (p=0.000 n=18+19)
BM_CompileAPIFileDenseDecls<Phase::Lex>/262144 64.0ms ± 2% 58.4ms ± 2% -8.70% (p=0.000 n=19+18)
```
This starts to fix a TODO in the diagnostic for these by giving a
reasonably good diagnostic about a very large type literal. However, in
practice it regresses the diagnostics because error tokens produce noisy
extraneous diagnostics from parse and check currently. Leaving the TODO
there, and I have a follow-up PR to start improving the extraneous
diagnostics.
Also surround it in square brackets rather than parentheses. This
matches the format used by Clang and GCC, and means diagnostics will
still match the `file:line:col: error: ` pattern used by some IDE tools.
Before:
```console
fail_builtins.carbon:11:11: error(AliasRequiresNameRef): alias initializer must be a name reference
```
After:
```console
fail_builtins.carbon:11:11: error: alias initializer must be a name reference [AliasRequiresNameRef]
```
Also tighten up test regex to only match on `STDERR` lines that list a
file name.
- Generate runtime indices as part of pattern matching, rather than as a
separate postprocessing/rewriting step.
- In contexts where runtime parameters aren't permitted, avoid emitting
insts for them to begin with, rather than trying to detect the problem
and rewrite the IR to remove them later on.
This is to help identify which diagnostics we're actually using.
Note that driver/testdata still has tests which don't pass this flag,
and so continue to test the kind-less (default) behavior.
A small step to virtual functions - adding vtable pointers to the
layout, but not initializing or otherwise using them at this stage.
A few open design questions I'd love feedback on:
* Is this the right/good enough SemIR representation for now? This patch
adds a `is_dynamic` attribute to `SemIR::Class` and populates/flags it
based on the flag of the base class, or if any virtual function is
declared in the class (or, at least that's my intent). Some other
options include:
* Each `Class` could store a `ClassId` (or `TypeId`?) of the (possibly
indirect, possibly self) base class that is the first one that is
dynamic/has a vtable pointer
* Could make the property narrower, like `has vtable pointer` and have
it `true` only on the type that introduces the vtable - then derived
classes would have to walk their base classes to check if they're the
one that needs to define the vtable pointer or not
* Should the vtable be the first element in the type? If there's a
non-dynamic base type, we could have a layout that's `{<non-dynamic base
type>, vtable ptr, <derived members>}`? Derived types would still be
able to uniquely identify where their vtable pointer is just fine... -
and the vtable pointer is, in a sense, a member of that intermediate
type, so it does seem a bit strange to force it to the front - but I
guess it's probably more efficient in some ways?
Open to any other suggestions/advice/thoughts on the direction, etc.

Also propagate the pattern IR along with the pattern-match IR, and use
it where appropriate.
Strictly speaking, some parts of the pattern-match IR are allocated
eagerly, while traversing the pattern's parse tree, but they still
aren't actually emitted until we traverse the associated pattern insts.

Add a new `specific_function` instruction that represents a generic
function plus its deduced argument list as a callee in a function call.
The new instruction can only appear as the immediate operand of a call
instruction, so we give it a builtin placeholder type.
At the end of each file, require definitions for all specific functions
used in that file. Resolve the generic with the argument list to produce
those specific function definitions as needed, and diagnose if the
generic doesn't have a definition available.
A few tests are updated in cases where they declared and used generic
functions but didn't previously provide a function definition.
Introduces the `BindingPattern` and `SymbolicBindingPattern` insts, and
a separate stack of pattern blocks that they are emitted into. The
intent is to generate the corresponding pattern-matching insts (like
`BindName`) from them in a separate pass, but that is deferred to future
PRs.
See
[here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1U_vQH17V893J9aF1LJXUnFYBNSs2MjKl4bJPaWCB2zo/edit?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-w0xGYZ0An31Kpz-wvzSXwQ)
for the design this is based on, but note that during review we have
chosen to deviate from that design by putting the patterns in separate
blocks, and omitting the "forward references" from a `BindingPattern` to
its corresponding `BindName`. This in turn necessitates having separate
inst kinds for symbolic and non-symbolic binding patterns.

Omit the `note: ` prefix and the snippet from the "in import" note that
precedes a diagnostic.
This makes our diagnostic output more closely match that of Clang and
GCC.
This is a primarily automated change:
- Search & replace for capitalization
-
`(CARBON_DIAGNOSTIC\((?:\n\s+)?\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s")([A-Z])`
- `$1\L$2`
- Search & replace for period
-
`(CARBON_DIAGNOSTIC\((?:\n\s+)?\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s"(?:[^)]|\n)+)\.("[,)])`
- `$1$2`
- Limited search & replace for `ERROR: ` -> `error: ` in streamed things
- Leaving a TODO for command_line because there's more cleanup that can
be done there
- Modify diagnostic_consumer.cpp
- ERROR -> error
- WARNING -> warning

These tips are especially valuable in these cases, because you can't use
`autoupdate_testdata.py` to identify the output difference, so dumping
the output is pretty much the only option.
Instead of the `call` instruction having a block with one argument per
explicit argument, preceded optionally by `self` and followed optionally
by a return slot, change the `call` to store only the *runtime*
arguments. Store an index on the runtime parameters to make it easier to
determine the correspondence between arguments and parameters in a call.
Compile-time parameters, whether implicit or explicit, are no longer
included in the call argument list. Instead, they're tracked only in the
`specific_id` on the callee.
For calls to generic classes and generic interfaces, it no longer makes
sense to form a `call` instruction, given that the entirety of the
result is determined by the `specific_id`, which is now formed when
checking the call. Instead, the `call` instruction now only models
function calls, and not calls to other kinds of parameterized entity
names, and we create a `class_type` or `interface_type` instead of a
`call` instruction to model these kinds of calls. Notionally the model
here is that we're following the #3720 approach for calls, but for now
we inline the `Call.Op` function when forming SemIR.
We now also track the enclosing specific for a generic class or generic
interface that appears within an enclosing generic. This is necessary in
order for deduction of the inner generic parameters to not get confused
by the outer generic parameters being absent.
In order to not regress diagnostics, the template argument deduction
mechanism has been extended to specify the name of the parameter we're
deducing against when possible, and call arity mismatch errors are now
diagnosed before performing deduction rather than afterwards.
Applies #4278 TEST_NAME substitution to tests. Note I've tried to
structure commits as:
1. Do all the replacements.
2. autoupdate (nothing else) -- this shows incorrect updates.
3. Fix up manually, including autoupdates to get back to original
output.
Add these interfaces to the core library. For now, they're two separate
interfaces because we don't yet support one interface extending another.
This collapses a lot of the layering in check: for example, the call
building logic depends on implicit conversions, conversions now depend
on the overloaded operator machinery, and that machinery depends on
building calls.
In passing, improve the diagnostics for failing to find a name required
from the prelude. Also convert all the transitively-called code from
`NodeId` to `LocId` given the latter is what the conversion machinery
has available.

TryEvalInst was assuming this to be the case when forming canonical
constants, but it previously wasn't.
This fixes an issue where we can end up with two identical-looking
constants for an empty struct value: one with an `Empty` block and
another with the canonical empty block.
The caching isn't buying us much, and is adding complexity and
divergence between the codepaths for generic and non-generic functions.
This means we no longer suppress diagnostics for the second or
subsequent time we call a function with an incomplete return type. If we
want to add that back, it might be worth considering moving the
suppression to `TryToCompleteType` and only diagnosing that a type is
incomplete once, regardless of why we're requiring it to be complete.
As discussed in toolchain meeting, we want to avoid overloading the
meaning of "instance", and "specific" was the best name we found. It's a
little unorthodox and inventive, but hopefully over time will become as
unsurprising as the term "generic" is.
I'd considered moving DeclParams uses over, but when handling qualified
names, there's a parse node instead of an instruction. I did try to
unify a couple other uses though, including adding MergeDefinition. I
expect `interface` will use a little more once it's more completely
implemented, but maybe I'm wrong about that.
This implements a few closely related features:
- Starts merging namespaces discovered inside imports.
- Stores results of cross-package name lookup as an entry inside the
scope.
- Note this is particularly visible with `i32`.
- Moves more of the imported instructions to the import scope.
Note this is primarily for executing the namespace TODO in check.cpp,
which is removed here.
`testdata/namespace/merging_with_indirections.carbon` tests key
behavior.

Instead of reusing instructions from the generic entity in the eval
block, rebuild constants in the same way we rebuild types. The previous
attempt to not rebuild these constants assumed that every constant used
in a generic would be built in that generic, and not referenced directly
or referenced from some enclosing scope, which isn't true in practice
and is a fragile assumption in any case.
We could add back some reuse of instructions from the generic -- if we
happen to see the right instruction to build a constant, we could
opportunistically reuse it -- but given the complexity added by doing
so, I'm not pursuing that here.
Now that the eval block for a generic consists of instructions uniquely
owned by that generic, rather than often being shared with another
entity, include the generic in the formatted SemIR output. I'm using the
same scope name for the generic object itself as for the parameterized
class / function / interface, because there are very frequently
references between them and this keeps the IR simpler and more readable,
and avoids needing to invent a second name for the scope.
Also adds import_ir_scope to namespace formatting. I'd done this as an
aid for #4153, and am splitting it out.

This better follows the principle that types are simply constants of
type `type`, and allows more uniform treatment of types as just another
kind of constant from generics handling.
Use a hash table to map from `TypeId` to information about the complete
type. This makes basic operations on types a bit simpler, and operations
that actually need to access the complete class information a bit more
complex.
When forming a specific (previously called a generic instance), evaluate
the eval block of the generic to determine the values of any constants
used in that specific. The majority of the work here is updating
eval.cpp so that it can use the results of prior evaluations in the same
block when computing later values.
Include the computed results in the formatted SemIR output.

We can't use the instruction from the generic directly, because it
doesn't have the right constant value. Instead add an instruction that
models the transition from the constant value in the generic to the
constant value in the generic instance.
Also start associating the self generic instance with unqualified
lookups that find results in an enclosing generic, so that we track the
information necessary to create the new instruction.

I'm trying to increase the distinction between BuiltinKind and
BuiltinFunctionKind. BuiltinKind is for instructions,
BuiltinFunctionKind is for function definitions. To get to this point,
I'm doing a few changes:
- BuiltinKind -> BuiltinInstKind
- builtin_kind.* -> builtin_inst_kind.*: filename consistency
- Builtin -> BuiltinInst: mainly for consistency with the above
- Builtin::builtin_kind -> BuiltinInst::builtin_inst_kind: somewhat
repetitive but seems like a consistent edit
- Function::builtin_kind -> Function::builtin_function_kind: seems a
useful distinction
I'm leaving alone things like (and mentioning in case there's a desire
for more renames):
- InstId::BuiltinError, InstId::ForBuiltin: these I think are more
apparent because they're directly associated with Inst.
- GetBuiltinICmpPredicate in lowering: maybe builtin function handling
should be in its own file, but these local names don't feel problematic
to me.
- GetBuiltinType, BuildBuiltinValueRepr, PerformBuiltinIntComparison:
similar to the above, names don't feel too problematic
For each generic, build a list of instructions describing the
computations we need to do when resolving an instance of the generic:
this is a list of the instance-specific constants and types that the
generic uses. Another way of viewing this list is as a block of Carbon
SemIR code that is evaluated in order to form an instance of the generic
-- this is referenced in the code as the "eval block" for the generic.
For each instruction in the generic whose type or value is a symbolic
constant, replace that type or constant value with a symbolic reference
that says "to find the actual type or value, look at index N in the list
of values for the generic instance".
For an instruction with a symbolic constant value, we can just add that
instruction to our list. For an instruction with a symbolic constant
type, however, we may not have a corresponding instruction computing the
type within the generic and may need to build a new instruction, but
will reuse one where possible. In the case where we build a new
instruction, we use the existing substitution code to build the type
within the eval block.
For now, this transformation is only done in the declaration region of
the generic, not in the definition region. Also, we map back from the
symbolic references to the underlying constant value in a few places
where we will eventually need to do a lookup into a generic instance, in
order to avoid regressing the tests.
This executes on a TODO in AddImportRef to add instructions to their own
block instead of the File block. This has an important consequence of
removing a pattern from InstBlockStack that added to blocks not
currently at the top, cleaning up an issue for ArrayStack. The delta
here is then mostly in different formatting of the import refs, a
consequence of the separation.
By adding an `ImportDecl` instruction, this creates something that can
be referenced through `ImportIRInst`.
packages/no_prelude/implicit_imports_entities.carbon is getting a test
of this (import_conflict and import_conflict_reverse).
Also re-packs ImportIR from 24 bytes to 16 on 64-bit, since I'm touching
everywhere that makes one anyways.
When forming a `ConstantId` for a symbolic constant, add storage to
track the generic in which the constant was formed and the index within
that generic. These fields are not yet populated.
So, I noticed that ImportIRInst didn't print properly while trying to
debug an issue, and that's where this started. Then I was sort of trying
to figure out why we have "type_blocks" but "typeBlock", so trying to
make that more consistent. "importIRInst0" felt more odd than
"import_ir_inst0" which is why I'm suggesting down this particular
route, but let me know if you'd prefer the reverse (but then do we also
do "typeBlocks", etc, removing the consistency with the member name?)
Also starting to print more detail on import_irs, and added
import_ir_insts (adjusting formatting for that too).
Also add a corresponding value store and YAML output.
We don't create any generic instances in this change; this is just
adding infrastructure for future changes.
Build a `Generic` object for generic functions. This object tracks the
generic parameters that are in scope for the generic entity. Eventually
it will track other information about the generic too.
Add basic SemIR formatting support for generic functions.
Instead of redundantly storing both the `return_type_id` and
`return_storage_id`, where the declared return type is just the type of
the return storage, store only the `return_storage_id`.
Add a convenience property to get the declared return type of the
function.
In addition to avoiding storing redundant information, this is a
preparatory step for an upcoming change for generics support that will
make it more expensive and awkward to store `TypeId`s in places other
than the type of an instruction.
Merges handle_let.cpp and handle_variable.cpp into a single file in
order to take better advantage of commonalities.
Both still have a bunch of kludges, and there's still divergent handling
in handle_binding_pattern that will yield different results. However,
this fixes some things about `let` like starting to make use of
global_init (imperfectly, due to how VarStorage works, I grant), and in
particular adding `let` names to a name scope, not just lexical lookup.
