This PR implements zero cost `BaseIO` by erasing the `IO.RealWorld`
parameter from argument lists and structures. This is a **major breaking
change for FFI**.
Concretely:
- `BaseIO` is defined in terms of `ST IO.RealWorld`
- `EIO` (and thus `IO`) is defined in terms of `EST IO.RealWorld`
- The opaque `Void` type is introduced and the trivial structure
optimization updated to account for it. Furthermore, arguments of type
`Void s` are removed from the argument lists of the C functions.
- `ST` is redefined as `Void s -> ST.Out s a` where `ST.Out` is a pair
of `Void s` and `a`
This together has the following major effects on our generated code:
- Functions that return `BaseIO`/`ST`/`EIO`/`IO`/`EST` now do not take
the dummy world parameter anymore. To account for this FFI code needs to
delete the dummy world parameter from the argument lists.
- Functions that return `BaseIO`/`ST` now return their wrapped value
directly. In particular `BaseIO UInt32` now returns a `uint32_t` instead
of a `lean_object*`. To account for this FFI code might have to change
the return type and does not need to call `lean_io_result_mk_ok` anymore
but can instead just `return` values right away (same with extracting
values from `BaseIO` computations.
- Functions that return `EIO`/`IO`/`EST` now only return the equivalent
of an `Except` node which reduces the allocation size. The
`lean_io_result_mk_ok`/`lean_io_result_mk_error` functions were updated
to account for this already so no change is required.
Besides improving performance by dropping allocation (sizes) we can now
also do fun new things such as:
```lean
@[extern "malloc"]
opaque malloc (size : USize) : BaseIO USize
```
This PR ports more of the post-initialization C++ shell code to Lean.
All that remains is the initialization of the profiler and task manager.
As initialization tasks rather than main shell code, they were left in
C++ (where the rest of the initialization code currently is).
The `max_memory` and `timeout` Lean options used by the the `--memory`
and `--timeout` command-line options are now properly registered. The
server defaults for max memory and max heartbeats (timeout) were removed
as they were not actually used (because the `server` option that was
checked was neither set nor exists).
This PR also makes better use of the module system in `Shell.lean` and
fixes a minor bug in a previous port where the file name check was
dependent on building the `.ilean` rather than the `.c` file (as was
originally the case).
Fixes#9879.
@kha The runtime folder includes what is needed to link a
standalone Lean program. It is still contains some unnecessary files.
We will be able to remove them after we release Lean4.
