* Split overloaded uses of RefType in front-end (#8427)Theresa Foley2025-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Overview ======== This change is the start of an attempt to address how the Slang compiler codebase has ended up conflating two similar, but semantically distinct, concepts: * The long-standing notion of `ref` parameters (only allowed for use in the builtin modules), which are encoded using a wrapper `Type` in the AST as part of the representation of the parameters of a `FuncType`. * A recently-introduced notion of explicit reference types that mirror the built-in `Ptr` type, with a relationship comparable to that between pointer and reference types in C++. The change splits the `Ref<T>` type in the core module into two distinct types, with one for each of the two use cases. Similarly, the `RefType` class in the compiler's AST is split into two distinct classes, to represent the two cases. Background ========== The `Ref<T>` type in the core module (hidden and not intended for users to ever see or use) was originally introduced to encode the `ref` parameter-passing mode, comparable to the hidden `Out<T>` and `InOut<T>` types used to encode `out` and `inout` parameter-passing modes. The `Ref<T>` type in the core module was encoded as a instance of the `RefType` class in the Slang AST (similar to how `Out<T>` mapped to an `OutType`). These AST classes were *only* intended to be used by the compiler front-end as part of its encoding of function types. The `FuncType` class needed a way to distinguish an `inout int` parameter from a plain (implicitly `in`) `int` parameter, so these wrapper like `RefType` and `OutType` were introduced to encode both the parameter type (`T`) and the parameter-passing mode in a form that could be passed around as a `Type`. Notably, the `Ref<T>` type (and `Out<T>`, etc.) were *not* intended to be type names that ever get uttered in Slang code (not even in the builtin modules), and the vast majority of the compiler code was not supposed to ever encounter them. They were an implementation detail of `FuncType`, and nothing else. (In hindsight it may have been a mistake to use a nominal type declared in the core module to implement these wrappers; it might have been a good idea to use an entirely separate class of `Type` for this case...) Recent changes to the builtin modules introduced functions that wanted to *return* a reference (so that the parameter-passing-mode modifiers like `ref` could not trivially be used), and as part of those changes the appealingly-named `Ref<T>` type in the core module was re-used for this new case. Builtin operations were declared with an explicit `Ref<T>` return type, and parts of the compiler front-end that had previously been blissfully unaware of the AST's `RefType` (and `InOutType`, etc.) had to start accounting for the possibility that an explicit `Ref<T>` would show up. Related changes also introduced a comparable conflation of the (unfortunately-named) `constref` parameter-passing modifier and builtin operations that wanted to return an explicit reference that is read-only. Both use cases were mapped to the core-module `ConstRef<T>` type, which appeared in the AST as an instance of the `ConstRefType` class. The overlapping use of `ConstRef<T>`` is actually significantly more troublesome than the `Ref<T>` case because, despite what its name implies, `constref` was not really supposed to be the read-only analogue of `ref`, but rather it is closer to the "immutable value borrow" analogue to `inout`'s "mutable value borrow." The semantics of a "value borrow" vs. a "memory reference" in Slang have not been very carefully codified, and the conflation around `ConstRef<T>` has contributed to things becoming increasingly muddy in the compiler back-end. Main Changes ============ Core Module ----------- The `Ref<T>` type has been replaced with two distinct types, with one for each use case: * `RefParam<T>` is intended for use when encoding a `ref` parameter in a function type * `ExplicitRef<T>` is intended for use when an operation in a builtin module wants to return a reference The other types used to represent parameter-passing modes (e.g., `InOut<T>`) were renamed to better indicate that their role in defining parameter types (e.g., `InOutParam<T>`). The `ExplicitRef<T>` type was given additional generic parameters for the allowed access and the address space, akin to what `Ptr<T>` now supports. The pointer dereference operator (prefix `*`) in the core module should now properly propagate the access and address space of the pointer over to the reference that gets returned. The two distinct use cases of `ConstRef<T>` were not split in the way as `Ref<T>`, instead the case for the `constref` parameter-passing mode uses `ConstParamRef<T>`, while cases that previously used `ConstRef<T>` to represent a read-only explicit reference instead now use `ExplicitRef<T, Access.Read>`. Prior to this change there were two subscripts declared on pointers: one in the `Ptr` type itself, and another in an `extension` for pointers with `Access.ReadWrite`. The comments on the code seemed to indicate that the catch-all subscript used to only have a `get` accessor, while the `ref` was only available on read-write pointers, but it seems that subsequent changes converted the default subscript to support `ref`. This change eliminates the subscript added via `extension`, since it is redundant. AST and Front-End ================= Similar to the changes in the core module, the AST `RefType` class was split into: * `RefParamType` for the case of encoding `ref` parameters * `ExplicitRefType` for the case where the user meant an explicit reference type All the other classes that represent wrappers for encoding parameter-passing modes (e.g., `OutType`) were similarly renamed (e.g., `OutParamType`). The `ConstRefType` class was simply renamed to `ConstRefParamType`, because any use cases of `ConstRefType` that intended an explicit reference type will now use `ExplicitRefType` with `Acccess.Read`. For convenience, this change includes type aliases to map the old names for these types over to the new ones (e.g., `using OutType = OutParamType`) so that the change doesn't need to affect quite so many lines of code. The `RefType` and `ConstRefType` names are intentionally left undefined, since it woudl be unsafe to assume that existing use sites should default to either of the two possible interpretations. All use cases of `RefType` and `ConstRefType` (and their former shared base class `RefTypeBase`) were audited and updated to refer to either `RefParamType`/`ConstRefParamType` or `ExplicitRefType`, as appropriate (based on whether the context of the code indicated it was working with parameter-passing mode wrapper types, or explicit reference types). In many (many) cases comments were added to the code that was updated (and some unrelated code that needed to be audited along the way) to note cases where there appears to be something fishy going on in the compiler and/or there are obvious opportunities for next-step improvement. The `QualType` constructor used to infer l-value-ness when passed a `RefType` or `ConstRefType`; that code was introduced to support explicit reference types. The code was updated to consult the access argument of an `ExplicitRefType` to try and determine the right l-value-ness to use. There is some ambiguity about what should be done in the case where the value of the generic argument representing the access cannot be statically determined; a better solution may be needed. Many other cases in the front-end that were working with `RefType` and `ConstRefType` for explicit references also need to figure out l-value-ness, and these were changed to rely on the logic already added to `QualType` so that it wouldn't have to be duplicated. It isn't clear if this structure is the best way to tackle the problem, but it seems to at least be an upgrade over the more strictly ad-hoc logic that was in place before. Future Work =========== IR-Level Work ------------- The most obvious next step to take is that the split that was made in the compiler front-end needs to be properly plumbed through all of the back-end. There appears to be a lot of code in the back end of the compiler that has made the same conflation of `ref` parameters and explicit reference types that the front-end did. In practice, any uses of `ExplicitRef<T>` in the front-end should desugar into plain pointer-based code in the IR. Clean Up Parameter-Passing Modes -------------------------------- The code that handles different parameter-passing modes (`ParameterDirection`s) and their wrapper types is somewhat scattered and messy (as found while auditing use cases of `RefType`). A cleanup pass is warranted to ensure that most code only needs to think about `ParameterDirection`s. There should ideally be only a single operation in the front-end that handles determining the `ParameterDirection` of a parameter based on its modifiers. Similarly, there should be one operation to wrap a value type based on a parameter direction, and one operation to derive a `ParameterDirection` from the wrapper type. Ideally, the accessors for `FuncType` should not provide unrestricted access to the potentially-wrapped parameter types, and should instead return some kind of `ParamInfo` struct that encodes both a `ParameterDirection` and the unwrapped `Type` of the parameter. Clean Up `QualType` ------------------- A significant piece of future work that appears required is to drastically clean up and improve the way that `QualType`s are represente and handled in the front-end. There are currently various distinct `bool` flags in `QualType` (some with very unclear meaning) and differnet parts of the codebase consult/modify only subsets of them; a clear enumeration of the "value categories" (to use the C++ terminology) that Slang supports could be quite helpful. Naively, a `QualType` should at least encode the basic information that a `Ptr` type encodes: * A value type * Allowed access (read-only, read-write, etc.) * Address space The main additional thing that a `QualType` needs is a way to distinguish cases where an expression evaluates to: * A reference to a memory location, where all the information from a `Ptr` is relevant * A simple value, such that the access and address space are irrelevant * A reference to an abstract storage location (a `property`, `subscript`, or an implicit conversion that needs to support being an l-value), in which case address space is irrelevant and the "allowed access" basically amounts to a listing of the accessors the storage location supports Eliminate Explicit Reference Types ---------------------------------- Finally, twe should eventually eliminate the `ExplicitRef<T>` type from the core module (and all of the supporting code from the front-end), since the feature is not a good fit for the Slang language. We should find some other way to decorate operations in the builtin module that need to returns a reference rather than a value (note how `ref` accessors already avoided exposing explicit reference types, by design). --------- Co-authored-by: slangbot <186143334+slangbot@users.noreply.github.com>

* Mediate access to ContainerDecl members (#7242)Theresa Foley2025-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of what this change does is straightforward: take all the places in the code that used to operate directly on `ContainerDecl::members` and related fields, and instead have them call into a smaller set of accessor methods defined on `ContainerDecl`. The primary motivation for making this change is that in order to implement on-demand loading of members from serialized AST modules, we need a way to identify and intercept the "demand" for those members. On-demand loading benefits from having all accesses to the members of a `ContainerDecl` be as narrow as possible. If a part of the code only need a member at a specific index, it should say so. If it only needs access to members with a specific name, or a given subclass of `Decl`, then it should say so. A secondary motivation for this change is that there have recently been several changes that added complexity and special cases by introducing code that operated on (and *mutated*) the member list of a container decl in ways that the existing code had never done before. Any code that mutates the member list of a `ContainerDecl` needs to be sure to not disrupt the invariants that the lookup acceleration structures currently rely on. One of the recent changes added a declaration-to-index map to the set of acceleration structures (with different validation/invalidation behavior than the others...) while other recent changes would remove or insert declarations in ways that could change the indices of other declarations in the same container. It is not clear if any of these pieces of code were aware of the others, and the invariants that might be expected or broken along the way. This change bottlenecks the vast majority of accesses to the members of a `ContainerDecl` through the following operations: * Getting a `List` of all of the direct member declarations of a container * Get the number of direct member declarations, and accessing them by index. * Looking up the list of direct member declarations with a given name. * Adding a new direct member declaration to the end of the list. Some other operations are layered on top of those (e.g., getting a list of all the direct member declarations of a given C++ class). These layered operations are still centralized on the `ContainerDecl`, with the intention that we *can* change them to be non-layered implementations if we ever need to for performance (e.g., by building a lookup structure for finding member declarations by their type). The exceptional cases of access/mutation on the direct members of a `ContainerDecl` have also been encapsulated, but rather than expose what would risk appearing like general-purpose accessors (e.g., `removeDecl(d)`, `setDecl(index)`, etc.), these operations have been explicitly named after the specific use case that they serve in the codebase today, to discourage others from using them for more kinds of operations we'd rather not support. These operations have also been given parameter signatures that match their use cases, to make it so that even somebody determined to abuse them would have to invent suitable arguments out of thin air. In the case of the declaration-to-index mapping, this change eliminates that acceleration structure, in favor or slightly more complicated (and possibly inefficient, yes) code at the use site. Over time, it would be good to closely scrutinize each of the use cases that requires more complicated interaction with the members of a `ContainerDecl`, to see whether any of them can be reframed in terms of the more basic operations, or if there is some clean abstraction we can introduce to make operations that mutate the member list feel like... hacky.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Implement default initializer list for C-Style type member Close #6189. Previsouly, for the C-Style member in a struct, if it doesn't have any initialize expression, when we synthesize the ctor, we will not associate the default value for the parameter corresponding to that member. This bring some trouble that existing slang users has to add '= {}' to every struct fields in order to make all the parameters in the synthesized ctor having a default value, so people can still use `Struct a = {}` to create a struct. To make this use case convenience, we will automatically associated a '= {}' as the default value for this case. This PR also add support for empty initializing link-time sized vector/matrix by "= {}". In addition, this PR also fix a bug in auto diff where we should not report error when proccessing transpose on an empty struct.

* Do not print errors in _coerce when "JustTrying". (#7064)Jay Kwak2025-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Do not print errors in _coerce when "JustTrying". While figuring out which generic-overload works best, `_coerce()` is printing errors and Slang compilation terminates prematurely. When `TryCheckGenericOverloadCandidateTypes()` is calling `_coerce()` in "JustTrying" mode, the error messages should be snoozed. The following logic shows the intention of how to silence the error messages, but the chain of `sink` was broken in the middle and `_coerce()` was using `getSink()` from the SemanticVisitor. val = ExtractGenericArgInteger( arg, getType(m_astBuilder, valParamRef), context.mode == OverloadResolveContext::Mode::JustTrying ? nullptr : getSink()); * Use tempSink when available.

* Create and cache flattened inheritance lists (#2740)Theresa Foley2023-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Create and cache flattened inheritance lists The basic change here is to have a cached lookup that can map a `Type`, or a `DeclRef` that might refer to a type or `extension`, to a list of the *facets* that comprise it. The notion of a *facet* here is similar to what the C++ standard calls "sub-objects". A declared type like a `struct` has: * a facet for its own direct members * one facet for each of its (transitive) base `struct` types * one facet for each `interface` it conforms to * one facet for each `extension` that applies to that type The set of facets for a type is de-duplicated (so that "diamond" inheritance patterns don't cause issues) and deterministically ordered, using a variation of the C3 linearization algorithm. The creation of a linearized list of facets should help the compiler implementation in two key places: * Testing if a type implements an interface (or inherits from a base type) should now only take time linear in the number of (transitive) bases of that type. We can simply scan the linearized facet list to see if it contains a facet corresponding to the given base. * Looking up the members of a type (or a value of a given type) should be greatly simplified, since all of the members can be found in a single linear scan of the facet list. In addition, those facets will be ordered so that facets for "more derived" types will precede those for "less derived" types, so that shadowing in the case of overrides should be easier to implement. This change only implements the first of these two improvements, since there is already a *lot* of churn involved. Notes and caveats: * The handling of conjunction types (e.g., `IFoo & IBar`) complicates the implementation, both because the simple approach to subtype testing alluded to above is no longer complete, and also because we need to be more careful about what forms of subtype witnesses we construct, so that we can maintain the currently-required invariant that two witnesses are only equal if they have matching structure. * We don't implement the full/"proper" C3 algorithm here because it has some failure cases that we'd still like to support. In particular if we have both `IX : IA, IB` and `IY : IB, IA`, the C3 algorithm says it is illegal to have `IZ : IX, IY` because the two bases it inherits from disagree on the relative ordering of `IA` and `IB` in their own linearizations. Handling such cases may make our implementation less efficient, and it will also require testing of those corner caes. * When it comes time to revamp the implementation of lookup, we will need to deal with the fact that a single linear list (seemingly) cannot give us sufficient information to decide which of two members of the same name should shadow the other, or if there is an ambiguity. Or rather, it *can* give us that information if we are willing to accept some very user-unfriendly behavior and simply say that declarations earlier in the linearization always shadow later declarations, even if the facets involved are not related by an inheritance relationship of any kind. * In order to remove one kind of vicious circularity from the approach, the linearization that we are computing for `extension` declarations will not be sufficient for lookups in the body of such an `extension`. A future change may need to have support for creating and caching two distinct linearizations for each `extension`: one that is to be used when that `extension` is pulled into the linearization for a type that it applies to, and another for when lookup will be performed in the context of the `extension` itself. * This change does *not* include the simple expedient of adding a direct cache for subtype tests to the `SharedSemanticsContext`, although adding such a cache would be a simple matter. * This change introduces more deduplication for subtype witnesses, which should enable more deduplication for other `Val`s (including `Type`s), but it does not introduce any assumptions that equal `Val`s or `Type`s must have identical pointer representations. * Eventually we may find that, similar to the situation with `Type`s, we will want to have a split between surface-level and canonicalized versions of other `Val`s, including subtype witnesses. * Fix clang error. * remove debugging code. --------- Co-authored-by: Yong He <yonghe@outlook.com>
