When evaluating a deferred member access action, the scope stack cannot
be relied on, so `LookupUnqualifiedName` cannot be used in
`GetHighestAllowedAccess` to get the `Self` type.
Instead, store the `Self` type in the `Context` when evaluating a
method, and use that in `GetHighestAllowedAccess`.
Use a single `SemIR::Function` per `Core` interface method, whether it's
generated locally or imported. This prevents generating duplicate
functions, which lead to different types when the witness appears in a
`FacetValue` as part of a specific for a class.
We use a `CanonicalValueStore` of `GeneratedFunction` objects that allow
finding an existing FunctionId for a `Generated` special function before
(re-)generating it. Mangling for `Generated` functions is also moved to
use the values from the `GeneratedFunction`'s canonicalization key, so
that we have a consistent source of truth for the unique ID of a
`Generated` function across all files.
New tests are in
`toolchain/check/testdata/impl/custom_witness/destroy.carbon`.
Replace `refine_type_action` with `refine_inst_action`, and generate a
`specific_inst` instead of an `as_compatible` to represent the specific
version of an instruction that's used as an input to a template action.
This gives us a place to handle other properties of the instruction that
might vary from generic to specific beyond its type, such as its
constant value and its expression category.
For now, we provide a non-template-dependent constant value to the
`specific_inst` in addition to the non-template-dependent type we have
traditionally provided. This doesn't seem to matter for any current
actions, but sets us up to better handle future actions. The
`specific_inst` representation also allows downstream consumers of the
instruction to track which specific they should be requesting
information from. Providing a correct expression category for
`specific_inst` will be handled in a future PR.
`TemplateInst` wraps another inst. If that inst is symbolic, it is
treated as a template by `OperandDependence`.
Use this to replace `CallCppTemplateAction` with the more general
`CallAction`.
Don't wait until we reach the end of the eval block to set the value
block on the specific. This is a prerequisite for allowing template
actions to read from the specific.
Calls with template callee or args can now be deferred via an
InstAction. This allows code like this to check:
```carbon
import Cpp inline '''
template<typename T>
struct C {};
''';
fn F(generic T: type) {
let unused c: Cpp.C(T) = Cpp.C(T).C();
}
```
Treat `InstConstantKind::InstAction` the same as
`InstConstantKind::ConstInstAction`. Drop `ConstInstAction`, since the
two now behave the same.
Fix eval for specifics in a couple places to handle `InstId::None`.
`-Wunused-template` was added to `-Wunused`, so clean up the things it
found. One of them was a bug in the Clang warning that I've worked
around and reported upstream:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/218429
Addresses part of issue raised in
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/issues/7159 by
implementing float.add & float.sub builtin for FloatLiteralValues
The following code now compiles:
```
let a: f64 = 1.0 + 1.0;
```
Code handles case where operands are both decadic (base 10) and dyadic
(base 2) real literals, with the result being whichever format results
in smaller mantisssa.
File tests assert equality by converting to f128, this can possibly be
improved once CompareWith is implemented for FloatLiteral too.

Addresses part of issue raised in #7159 by implementing float.negate
builtin for FloatLiteralValues
The following code now compiles:
```
let a: f64 = -1.0;
```
To achieve this I switch the mantissa from being unsigned to signed.
Lexed literals within source file will still always be unsigned, however
it is now possible to create negative FloatLiteralValue constants. Main
non-local changes this causes is:
- All llvm::APInt parsing / printing calls flipped isSigned param
- Zero extension replaced with sign extension
- getActiveBits() replaced with getSignificantBits() for min bit width
calculation
In #7378 we forbid writing `where` on the RHS of another `where`
expression. However it's still possible to inject a `where` expression
through eval, using an `alias` or an `eval fn`. We address this by
looking in the constant value of constraints of a `WhereExpr` (which
sees the outcome of eval) and searching for a nested `where` there. We
can determine a facet type was written with a nested `where` by seeing
that it has some non-extend constraint.

This disallows building a facet type that contains another facet type
with non-extend constraints in it. Which in turn prevents the
possibility of introducing a different `.Self` into a facet type.
Eval can still insert a facet type with non-extend constraints, as we
only prevent it for `where` being written into the facet type. There is
a TODO in handle_where.cpp for this and some tests in
toolchain/check/testdata/facet/nested_facet_types_from_eval.carbon
The bulk of this change is changing most pattern insts to be `Always`
rather than `AlwaysUnique` constants, so that they can be wrapped in
`SpecificConstant`s to perform substitution. That then lets thunking
rely much more on `SpecificConstant` wrappers instead of deep-copying
the inst tree with modified types.
This approach to thunking should scale better, particularly as things
like form generics make function signatures more complex, because we can
leverage the existing support for constant evaluation and substitution.
Unfortunately, applying this approach to binding patterns will require
more work; see the TODO near the top of `thunk.cpp` for details.

Converting an integer value to a destination type that is not a valid
integer type -- such as `i8388609` or `i16777216`, whose bit widths are
diagnosed as invalid -- hit a CHECK failure in
`TypeStore::GetIntTypeInfo` during constant evaluation of `int.convert`
/ `int.convert_checked`:
```
CHECK failure at toolchain/sem_ir/type.cpp:189: int_info: Type type(...) is not an integer type
```
The width error is already diagnosed when forming the type
(`IntWidthNotMultipleOf8` / `IntWidthTooLarge`), so `PerformIntConvert`
and `PerformCheckedIntConvert` now use `TryGetIntTypeInfo` and produce
an error value instead of crashing, following the existing
`SemIR::ErrorInst::ConstantId` convention in `eval.cpp`.
Added a file test covering all three reproducers from the issue
(`i8388609`, `i16777216`, `Core.Int(8388609)`); it crashes without this
change. The full `//toolchain/testing:file_test` suite (1578 tests)
passes.
Fixes#7278.

Change `Lookup` by InstId to return a ClangDecl pointer. All callers
were immediately calling `Get` anyway, so this makes call sites a little
shorter. The other `Lookup` method, by ClangDeclKey, is sometimes called
without calling `Get`, so left that as-is, but renamed to `LookupId`.
Also add a `decl` method to ClangDecl so that the commonly repeated
`clang_decl->key.decl` can be written `clang_decl->decl()`.
Removing the clang_decl_id on SemIR::Function - using only the
clang_decls map to create the association between SemIR::Function and
clang::FunctionDecls.
This adds an `is_external` flag to ClangDecl to indicate whether the
entity originated from Carbon or was imported from another language.
(I'm open to names - I guess for now we mostly use "is this from C++" to
be more specific than "is this external" - eg: NameScope::is_cpp_scope)
Implement support for floating-point <-> integer type conversions as
described in #820 and #845, extended to support `unsafe as` conversions
for the conversions that can't be expressed as either implicit
conversions or `as` conversions.
One tricky part here is conversions from floating-point literals to
integer types. Such literals may have both a very large mantissa and a
corresponding somewhat large negative exponent, and still produce a
result that is in the range of values that a small integer type can
represent. In order to support that while avoiding building very large
2^N or 10^N constants in general, we first compute a conservative
approximation of the number of bits necessary to represent the integer
result, with an early exit if the number is either definitely too large
or definitely zero. The remaining cases have a reasonable bound on the
size of integer necessary to compute the base^exponent multiplicand.

When forming the constant value of a `where` expression, don't consider
it to be `.Self`-dependent if the dependence only comes from the RHS of
the `where`. More generally, ignore `.Self` dependence when evaluating a
facet type unless it comes from an extended interface or named
constraint. While we can get other kinds of constraint from the
left-hand side of a `where`, such constraints must either come from the
right-hand side of other `where` expressions or be extend constraints.
This fixes a crash in lowering caused by a concrete function containing
a `.Self`-symbolic `where` constant.

A nested designator like `.(X.X1).(Y.Y1)` results in nested
ImplWitnessAccess instructions, which can produce cycles in the
toolchain easily when replacing `.Self`.
First, when constructing a facet type like `V:! Z where .Z1 impls (Y
where .Y1 = U)` we substitute replace `.Self` in the nested facet type,
and in this case we replace `.Self` with `.Z1` which contains a `.Self`
of its own. This was coming from us being lazy about replacing `.Self`
in an `impl as` declaration, such as `impl C as Z where .Z1 = .Self`.
The self type is known there, so we can more eagerly replace `.Self` as
we do in a `require impls` declaration. Then the replacement for `.Self`
never comes with a `.Self` that needs to also be replaced. Any resulting
`.Self` would always be the top-level one.
Second, when evaluating ImplWitnessAccess, we were replacing .Self in
the LHS of rewrite constraints, but the `.Self` may itself have a type
that contains rewrite constraints. If one of those rewrite constraints
has nested ImplWitnessAccess instructions, we evaluate the new
ImplWitnessAccess, which again finds rewrite constraints to replace
`.Self` in, and we repeat forever. For this one we just stop replacing
.Self in the LHS of rewrite constraints. Since they are always against
.Self, we can always look in the access facet's type for a value.
While fixing ImplWitness access, also correct the lookup to search
through the types of nested ImplWitnessAccess instructions to find a
rewrite value, since it may find it at any level up to the eventual
`.Self`.

The key changes here are:
- Relocating and renaming it to align with `IdKind` (and relocating
`ToRaw` and `FromRaw` to follow it).
- Adding a `Dispatch` method that provides a generic overload-based API
for expressing per-ID-kind dispatch, and rewriting existing code to use
it.
Note in particular that using overloads instead of switch cases makes it
possible to generically handle all specializations of a templated ID
type, e.g. `SomeIdType<T>` for all `T`. We have no such templated ID
types yet, but I'm introducing one in a follow-up PR that needs this
capability.
A `where` expression nested inside a `T impls X` constraint makes
`.Self` ambiguous on the right-hand side of the `where` if `T` is
anything other than `.Self`. After the `where`, the value of a `.Self`
could be `T` or could be the value of `.Self` before the `impls`
constraint: the so-called top-level value of `.Self`.
Implicit use of `.Self` in designators is always allowed, and they are
bound (and replaced by a reference) to the inner-most possible value of
`.Self`. On the right-hand side of the nested `where` above, they have
the value `T as X`.
`.Self impls ...` is also always allowed, since it acts more as a
keyword here, and it always refers to the inner-most possible value of
`.Self`.
Any other explicit use of `.Self` is diagnosed when ambiguous, in any
kind of constraint. This is done in the handling of `WhereExpr` since it
has enough context to allow `.Self impls` (which is an explicit use)
while disallowing other explicit uses. And because it has non-canonical
instructions to work with, so it is able to diagnose errors with precise
locations.
Since `.Self` is no longer going to be marked with depth modifiers, the
eval of `WhereExpr` does not need an input facet value instruction
representing `.Self` to compare with, as they are now going to all be
equivalent. So revert it back to just looking for the `PeriodSelf` name
id, through a shared helper being introduced as `IsPeriodSelf`. And drop
the period self InstId from the `WhereExpr` instruction. This causes
most of the formatted SemIR changes.
Move helpers for working with and replacing `.Self` to their own file,
out of the `facet_type.h` header/cpp files. These are working with
`.Self` facet values more than facet types, though `.Self` is a name
that only exists inside the scope of a facet type.
See
[here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rWcueFwIfZox6GKVGxiUG4cBzjrZ6djXiIDGyJDtrE4/edit?tab=t.0)
for the design doc.
This also removes the default value of the `result_type_inst_id`
parameter of `HandleAction`, moves it before the action in the parameter
list, and documents it. This solves two problems:
- The default made it easy to forget, leading to unnecessary
`TypeOfInst` instructions.
- When it was present, putting it after the fairly "bulky" action
argument tended to make the callsite harder to read.
This allows `T impls X` constraints to function, since they must contain
some reference to `.Self` in order to be valid. This should be
sufficient to support the interfaces we need for for loops over C++
range-for-compatible types.
We replace `.Self` in the following places:
- In a require decl, as we have a specific self facet to replace it with
from the declaration, either a user-specified facet or the symbolic
`Self`.
- When identifying a facet type, as we have a specific self that we are
identifying the facet type with. That self gets used for all `.Self`
references.
- Implicit `.Self` references on the RHS of an `impls` constraint when
building a facet type. The `.Self` references there no longer refer to
the top level self facet, so replace them with the facet that we now
know they refer to, which is found on the LHS of the `where` before the
`impls`.
- Rewrite constraints in impl lookup when validating them and comparing
them with constants from witnesses, which come from identifying a facet
type.
- Rewrite constraints in ImplWitnessAccess eval when comparing them with
constants from witnesses, which come from identifying a facet type.
Substitution is done through `SubstPeriodSelf`. It handles replacing
`.Self` and `.Self as type`, for a replacement facet that is either of
type FacetType or TypeType.
Eval currently diagnoses some ambiguous `.Self` references when doing
substitution of `.Self` but this is the incorrect place to do it, so
there are TODOs about moving this to name lookup. To support these
diagnostics there's some additional complexity in `SubstPeriodSelf` that
can go away once the TODOs are addressed, such as asking the caller if
they want to replace each `.Self`, in order for it to report a
diagnostic.
There are a number of follow-up work items here:
- Some TODO tests.
- Remove `SymbolicBindingType` since its intention was to support
`.Self` but we don't need it with this approach.
- Replace `.Self` in rewrite constraints of require decls.
- Replace `.Self` in rewrite constraints of impl as when constructing
the witness table.
- Reject explicit `.Self` in name lookup when it would be ambiguous.
- Officially disallow `.Self.A = B` in rewrite constraints in the design
docs, so that we don't have the case where `.A` is allowed but `.Self.A`
is not due to ambiguity.
We were not copying named constraints in the base facet type over to the
result of the WhereExpr eval.
Add tests that cover this by doing `impl as Constraint where ...` with
rewrite contraints either in the impl-as or in the named constraint.
When the interface is generic, these tests fail (as TODOs). When the
impl is used in impl lookup, we crash (with TODOs in the tests).
Part of #6991.
- Rename `ActionIsDependent` to `ActionIsPerformable` (with negated
meaning), because that name is more concrete and, um, actionable.
- Replace `OperandIsDependent` with `OperandDependence`, which returns a
`ConstantDependence` instead of a bool. We need this additional
generality for handling form actions, where we sometimes need to ask
whether something has _any_ dependence, not just whether it has template
dependence.
This makes them part of the identified facet type, and we can see the
constraints as part of stringify and format output.
But this does not do enough to make them useful yet: Any `T impls X`
constraint must contain a reference to `.Self` somewhere. And `.Self`
references do not get substituted, so neither `T(.Self) impls X` and `T
impls X(.Self)` will match against an incoming facet value derived from
an `impl T(U) as X` or `impl T as X(U)`, since `U` and `.Self` are never
the same thing until `.Self` can be substituted.
Now that impl lookup runs into facet values containing `.Self` (a
symbolic binding), such as in `C(.Self)`, we were crashing assuming the
type of `.Self` is a FacetType, but it can be `type` in the case of
`type where C(.Self) impls...`. Instead, use an empty facet type for the
type of `.Self` so it is always a facet. This assists with substituting
other facets into it, without having to insert an extra FacetAccessType.
`MakePeriodSelfFacetValue()` now enforces this requirement.

This splits off the functionality to handle the base facet type,
rewrites, and impls constraints into separate functions.
We use the Context instead of EvalContext throughout, as the goal is to
move this code to EvalConstantInst in time. That means we do not apply
specifics to the functions in the requirements inst block. That is fine
because WhereExpr never evaluates to an WhereExpr, so this instruction
never survives as a constant value long enough to be re-evaluated with a
specific applied to it.
We don't yet actually add any in check, but this adds the storage for
them, and capabilities to import them, evaluate them, substitute into
them with specifics, name them, format them, and stringify them.

This makes it possible to do const eval when calling a constexpr C++
function with params and return types other than 32/64-bit integers.
Most of the new logic is in `MaybeModifyCppThunkCallForConstEval`, which
is called by `MakeConstantForCall`. This checks if the callee is a C++
thunk (using a new `SpecialFunctionKind::CppThunk` variant), and if so
it:
* Changes the callee from the C++ thunk to the thunk's callee
* Remaps parameters that are passed by pointer to the thunk to the
underlying value
* Drops the return value parameter, if present
This removes some loops in type completion, but is motivated by the
thought that eval probably wants to query it.

When a `var` is not explicitly given an initializer, initialize it in
one of two ways:
* If its type implements the new interface `Core.Default`, call
`Core.Default.Op` to initialize it.
* Otherwise, if its type implements `UnformedInit`, leave it in an
unformed state. For now, this is always an uninitialized state, but that
will change in the future.
* If neither of those apply, the `var` declaration is ill-formed.
This is a step towards implementing leads decision #6739 and proposals
#257 and #5913.

Using a named constraint inside itself is problematic:
- If there were not require decls written above, it identifies as an
empty set. This makes `Z(Self)` essentially disappear in the identified
facet type, which produces "no use of Self" diagnostics while the user
can see a use of Self in the code.
- It won't include require decls that are written after, and so `require
T impls Z` won't actually enforce that `T` impls all of `Z`.
Previously this was an error because using the named constraint would
require it to be identified, and it's not identified until it is
complete. But this will change in proposal #6902. So that proposal also
includes changes to preserve diagnostics for incorrect use of a named
constraint before it's complete, which is implemented here.
Discussed in open discussion [on
2026-03-12](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mjllGO3ZCL4qGt9uJHUtcxKoHAGEY7Y999ie4EtBWB8/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.1dvbbrp5a6t3).
The new tests exposed a bug where we're not copying named constraints in
a facet type on the RHS of `where .Self impls` into the facet type on
the left, which is now fixed. The
`fail_require_impls_incomplete_self_in_period_self_impls.carbon` test
would not diagnose its error without this fix.
Introduces `Context` and `SoftContext` messages, which can be introduced
through a `ContextBuilder`:
- The `Context` messages come before the diagnostic in the output.
- The first `Context` message steals the diagnostic level from the main
diagnostic, and turns the main diagnostic into a Note attached to the
context.
- A `SoftContext` message works similarly, but if it's preceeded by a
`Context` or `SoftContext` message, then it is dropped. This can be used
as a default/backup scope when nothing more interesting is provided up
the stack, such as in `TryEvalBlockForSpecific`.
The `ContextBuilder` is provided to a callback through
`Diagnostics::ContextScope`, an RAII type `AnnotationScope` but for
context messages.
This allows a high level operation to provide a context message like
"failed to identify facet type {0}" which will then be used as the error
if a diagnostic is produced during identification, with the latter
diagnostic attached as a note to explain why the contextual operation
failed.
In particular, this allows monomorphization errors (such as an array
bound being negative) to be attached to a higher lever operation instead
of being top-level diagnostics themselves, with the monomorphization
site being a note. This inverts the source code locations that appear in
the diagnostic, so that the top-level diagnostic points to the "user
code" which causes the monomorphization.
This is presented as an alternative strategy to #6753, which plumbed
diagnoser callbacks around to achieve the same goals.
We replace the diagnoser callbacks in type completion and operators with
ContextScope callbacks instead, which now provide better diagnostics for
monomorphization errors. Other callers to MakeSpecific do not yet have
ContextScopes introduced in order to turn monomorphization errors into
more interesting diagnostics.
Add support for `BranchWithArg` and `BlockArg` during compile-time
function execution. We only track the most recent block arg value for
now, because that's all we need -- we never look at a block argument for
any block other than the current one.
Also refactor `FunctionExecContext` to better encapsulate the blocks
list.
