2020-06-05ASTNodes use MemoryArena (#1376)jsmall-nvidia
* Add a ASTBuilder to a Module Only construct on valid ASTBuilder (was being called on nullptr on occassion) * Add nodes to ASTBuilder. * Compiles with RefPtr removed from AST node types. * Initialize all AST node pointer variables in headers to nullptr; * Initialize AST node variables as nullptr. Make ASTBuilder keep a ref on node types. Make SyntaxParseCallback returns a NodeBase * Don't release canonicalType on dtor (managed by ASTBuilder). * Give ASTBuilders a name and id, to help in debugging. For now destroy the session TypeCache, to stop it holding things released when the compile request destroys ASTBuilders. * Moved the TypeCheckingCache over to Linkage from Session. * NodeBase no longer derived from RefObject. * Only add/dtor nodes that need destruction. First pass compile on linux.
2020-06-04First steps toward inheritance for struct types (#1366)Tim Foley
* First steps toward inheritance for struct types This change adds the ability for a `struct` type to declare a base type that is another `struct`: ```hlsl struct Base { int baseMember; } struct Derived : Base { int derivedMember; } ``` The semantics of the feature are that code like the above desugars into code like: ```hlsl struct Base { int baseMember; } struct Derived { Base _base; int derivedMember; } ``` At points where a member from the base type is being projected out, or the value is being implicitly cast to the base type, the compiler transforms the code to reference the implicitly-generated `_base` member. That means code like this: ```hlsl void f(Base b); ... Derived d = ...; int x = d.baseMember; f(d); ``` gets transformed into a form like this: ```hlsl void f(Base b); ... Derived d = ...; int x = d._base.baseMember; f(d._base); ``` Note that as a result of this choice, the behavior when passing a `Derived` value to a function that expects a `Base` (including to inherited member functions) is that of "object shearing" from the C++ world: the called function can only "see" the `Base` part of the argument, and any operations performed on it will behave as if the value was indeed a `Base`. There is no polymorphism going on because Slang doesn't currently have `virtual` methods. In an attempt to work toward inheritance being a robust feature, this change adds a bunch of more detailed logic for checking the bases of various declarations: * An `interface` declaration is only allowed to inherit from other `interface`s * An `extension` declaration can only introduce inheritance from `interface`s * A `struct` declaration can only inherit from at most one other `struct`, and that `struct` must be the first entry in the list of bases This change also adds a mechanism to control whether a `struct` or `interface` in one module can inherit from a `struct` or `interface` declared in another module: * If the base declaration is marked `[open]`, then the inheritance is allowed * If the base declaration is marked `[sealed]`, then the inheritance is allowed * If it is not marked otherwise, a `struct` is implicitly `[sealed]` * If it is not marked otherwise, an `interface` is implicitly `[open]` These seem like reasonable defaults. In order to safeguard the standard library a bit, the interfaces for builtin types have been marked `[sealed]` to make sure that a user cannot declare a `struct` and then mark it as a `BuiltinFloatingPointType`. This step should bring us a bit closer to being able to document and expose these interfaces for built-in types so that users can write code that is generic over them. There are some big caveats with this work, such that it really only represents a stepping-stone toward a usable inheritance feature. The most important caveats are: * If a `Derived` type tries to conform to an interface, such that one or more interface requirements are satisfied with members inherited from the `Base` type, that is likely to cause a crash or incorrect code generation. * If a `Derived` type tries to inherit from a `Base` type that conforms to one or more interfaces, the witness table generated for the conformance of `Derived` to that interface is likely to lead to a crash or incorrect code generation. It is clear that solving both of those issues will be necessary before we can really promote `struct` inheritance as a feature for users to try out. * fixup: trying to appease clang error * fixups: review feedback
2020-05-29Feature/ast syntax standard (#1360)jsmall-nvidia
* Small improvements to documentation and code around DiagnosticSink * Made methods/functions in slang-syntax.h be lowerCamel Removed some commented out source (was placed elsewhere in code) * Making AST related methods and function lowerCamel. Made IsLeftValue -> isLeftValue.
2020-05-28WIP: ASTBuilder (#1358)jsmall-nvidia
* Compiles. * Small tidy up around session/ASTBuilder. * Tests are now passing. * Fix Visual Studio project. * Fix using new X to use builder when protectedness of Ctor is not enough. Substitute->substitute * Add some missing ast nodes created outside of ASTBuilder. * Compile time check that ASTBuilder is making an AST type. * Moced findClasInfo and findSyntaxClass (essentially the same thing) to SharedASTBuilder from Session.
2020-05-22Tidy up around AST nodes (#1353)jsmall-nvidia
* Fields from upper to lower case in slang-ast-decl.h * Lower camel field names in slang-ast-stmt.h * Fix fields in slang-ast-expr.h * slang-ast-type.h make fields lowerCamel. * slang-ast-base.h members functions lowerCamel. * Method names in slang-ast-type.h to lowerCamel. * GetCanonicalType -> getCanonicalType * Substitute -> substitute * Equals -> equals ToString -> toString * ParentDecl -> parentDecl Members -> members
2019-10-25Refactor semantic checking code into more files (#1097)Tim Foley
The semantic checking logic was all inside `slang-check.cpp` and as a result this was a monster file that was extremely hard to follow. This change splits `slang-check.cpp` into several smaller files, although some of the resulting files are still quite large. This change attempts to be a copy-paste job as much as possible and does *not* perform any cleanup on naming, structure, duplication, etc. in the code it deal with. No function bodies or signatures have been touched.
