This PR refines and clarifies the `meta` phase distinction in the module
system.
* `meta import A` without `public` now has the clarified meaning of
"enable compile-time evaluation of declarations in or above `A` in the
current module, but not downstream". This is now checked statically by
enforcing that public meta defs, which therefore may be referenced from
outside, can only use public meta imports, and that global evaluating
attributes such as `@[term_parser]` can only be applied to public meta
defs.
* `meta def`s may no longer reference non-meta defs even when in the
same module. This clarifies the meta distinction as well as improves
locality of (new) error messages.
* parser references in `syntax` are now also properly tracked as meta
references.
* A `meta import` of an `import` now properly loads only the `.ir` of
the nested module for the purposes of execution instead of also making
its declarations available for general elaboration.
* `initialize` is now no longer being run on import under the module
system, which is now covered by `meta initialize`.
This PR changes the defeq algorithm to perform `whnf` on the `String.mk`
expression it creates for string literals.
This is currently a no-op, but will no longer be one once `String` is
redefined so that `String.mk` is a regular function instead of a
constructor.
This PR allows the interpreter to jump to native code of `[export]`
declarations, which can increase performance as well as the
effectiveness of `interpreter.prefer_native=true` during bootstrapping.
This PR makes `IO.RealWorld` opaque. It also adds a new compiler -only
`lcRealWorld` constant to represent this type within the compiler. By
default, an opaque type definition is treated like `lcAny`, whereas we
want a more efficient representation. At the moment, this isn't a big
difference, but in the future we would like to completely erase
`IO.RealWorld` at runtime.
This PR fixes the compilation of `noConfusion` by repairing an oversight
made when porting this code from the old compiler. The old compiler only
repeatedly expanded the major for each non-`Prop` field of the inductive
under consideration, mirroring the construction of `noConfusion` itself,
whereas the new compiler erroneously counted all fields.
Fixes#9971.
This PR changes the `toMono` pass to replace decls with their `_redArg`
equivalent, which has the consequence of not considering arguments
deemed useless by the `reduceArity` pass for the purposes of the
`noncomputable` check.
This PR adds support for correctly handling computations on fields in
`casesOn` for inductive predicates that support large elimination. In
any such predicate, the only relevant fields allowed are those that are
also used as an index, in which case we can find the supplied index and
use that term instead.
This PR changes the handling of overapplied constructors when lowering
LCNF to IR from a (slightly implicit) assertion failure to producing
`unreachable`. Transformations on inlined unreachable code can produce
constructor applications with additional arguments.
In the old compiler, these additional arguments were silently ignored,
but it seems more sensible to replace them with `unreachable`, just in
case they arise due to a compiler error.
Fixes#9937.
The current reuse analysis is greedy in that every function attempts to
reuse a value. However, this means that if the last use is an owned
argument, it will be `inc`'d prior to this last use, in order to prevent
reuse from happening in the callee. In many cases, it makes more sense
to give the callee the chance to reuse it instead. The benchmark results
indicate that this is a much better default.
This PR fixes an issue when running Mathlib's `FintypeCat` as code,
where an erased type former is passed to a polymorphic function. We were
lowering the arrow type to`object`, which conflicts with the runtime
representation of an erased value as a tagged scalar.
This PR changes `internalizeCode` to replace all substitutions with
non-param-bound fvars in `Expr`s (which are all types) with `lcAny`,
preserving the invariant that there are no such dependencies. The
violation of this invariant across files caused test failures in a
pending PR, but it is difficult to write a direct test for it. In the
future, we should probably change the LCNF checker to detect this.
This change also speeds up some compilation-heavy benchmarks much more
than I would've expected, which is a pleasant surprise. This indicates
we might get more speedups from reducing the amount of type information
we preserve in LCNF.
This PR addresses a missing check in the module system where private
names that remain in the public environment map for technical reasons
(e.g. inductive constructors generated by the kernel and relied on by
the code generator) accidentally were accessible in the public scope.
This PR changes the IR RC pass to take "implied borrows" from
projections into account. If a projected value's lifetime is contained
in that of its parent (or any projection ancestor), then it does not
need its reference count incremented (or later decremented).
I believe that this same technique should generalize to both the
reset/reuse and borrow signature inference passes.
