This giant commit changes the syntax of Rust to use "assert" for
"check" expressions that didn't mean anything to the typestate
system, and continue using "check" for checks that are used as
part of typestate checking.
Most of the changes are just replacing "check" with "assert" in test
cases and rustc.
Added support for self_method, cont, chan, port, recv, send, be,
do_while, spawn, and ext; handled break and cont correctly.
(However, there are no non-xfailed test cases for ext or spawn in
stage0 currently.)
Although the standard library compiles and all test cases pass with
typestate enabled, I left typestate checking disabled as rustc
terminates abnormally when building the standard library if so,
even though it does generate code correctly.
Lots of work on typestate_check, seems to get a lot of the way
through checking the standard library.
* Added for, for_each, assign_op, bind, cast, put, check, break,
and cont. (I'm not sure break and cont are actually handled correctly.)
* Fixed side-effect bug in seq_preconds so that unioning the
preconditions of a sequence of statements or expressions
is handled correctly.
* Pass poststate correctly through a stmt_decl.
* Handle expr_ret and expr_fail properly (after execution of a ret
or fail, everything is true -- this is needed to handle ifs and alts
where one branch is a ret or fail)
* Fixed bug in set_prestate_ann where a thing that needed to be
mutated wasn't getting passed as an alias
* Fixed bug in how expr_alt was treated (zero is not the identity
for intersect, who knew, right?)
* Update logging to reflect log_err vs. log
* Fixed find_locals so as to return all local decls and exclude
function arguments.
* Make union_postconds work on an empty vector (needed to handle
empty blocks correctly)
* Added _vec.cat_options, which takes a list of option[T] to a list
of T, ignoring any Nones
* Added two test cases.
Summary says it all. Actually, only nested objects and functions
are handled, but that's better than before. The fold that I was using
before to traverse a crate wasn't working correctly, because annotations
have to reflect the number of local variables of the nearest enclosing
function (in turn, because annotations are represented as bit vectors).
The fold was traversing the AST in the wrong order, first filling in
the annotations correctly, but then re-traversing them with the bit
vector length for any outer nested functions, and so on.
Remedying this required writing a lot of tedious boilerplate code
because I scrapped the idea of using a fold altogether.
I also made typestate_check handle unary, field, alt, and fail.
Also, some miscellaneous changes:
* added annotations to blocks in typeck
* fix pprust so it can handle spawn
* added more logging functions in util.common
* fixed _vec.or
* added maybe and from_maybe in option
* removed fold_block field from ast_fold, since it was never used
Also did some refactoring in typestate_check. All test cases in
compile-fail that involve uninitialized vars now fail correctly!
(All eight of them, that is.)
(caveat for the latter: it assumes that binary operations are strict;
a TODO is to detect or and and and correctly reflect that they're lazy
in the second argument). I had to add an ann field to ast.block,
resulting in the usual boilerplate changes.
Test cases that currently work (if you uncomment the typestate pass
in the driver) (all these are under test/compile-fail):
fru-typestate
ret-uninit
use-uninit
use-uninit-2
use-uninit-3
Also changed the ts_ann field on statements to be an ann instead,
which explains most of the changes.
As well, got rid of the "warning: no type for expression" error
by filling in annotations for local decls in typeck (not sure whether
this was my fault or not).
Finally, in bitv, added a clone() function to copy a bit vector,
and fixed is_true, is_false, and to_str to not be nonsense.
This makes passing them around cheaper. There is now a table (see
front/codemap.rs) that is needed to transform such an uint into an
actual filename/line/col location.
Also cleans up the span building in the parser a bit.
It's still sketchy. I added a typestate annotation field to statements
tagged stmt_decl or stmt_expr, because a stmt_decl statement has a typestate
that's different from that of its child node. This necessitated trivial
changes to a bunch of other files all over to the compiler. I also added a
few small standard library functions, some of which I didn't actually end
up using but which I thought might be useful anyway.
I added a new field to the ast "ann" type for typestate information.
Currently, the field contains a record of a precondition bit vector and
postcondition vector, but I tried to structure things so as to make
it easy to change the representation of the typestate annotation type.
I also had to add annotations to some syntactic forms that didn't have
them before (fail, ret, be...), with all the boilerplate changes
that that would imply.
The main call to the typestate_check entry point is commented out and
the actual pre-postcondition algorithm only has a few cases
implemented, though the overall AST traversal is there. The rest of
the typestate algorithm isn't implemented yet.
