wip(resolver): collectors + unified predicate + tightened adapters [stdlib B, BLOCKED on 0106]
Collectors (resolver.zig: collectVisibleAuthors/collectNamespaceAuthors + AuthorSet + VisibilityMode, 4 unit tests) + unified visibility predicate + isNameVisible/ isCImportVisible adapters routed to flat modes. Tightening surfaces issue 0106 (stdlib comptime expansion relies on the over-permissive import_graph join), so run_examples is 467/471 here. attempt-2 folds in the coupled comptime-context fix.

# 0106 — namespaced-import internal names are silently bare-visible (over-permissive `isNameVisible`)
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptom.** A bare reference to a top-level name authored in a module that the
|
||||
consumer imports **only namespaced** (`ns :: #import "m.sx"`) is silently
|
||||
visible from the consumer. Observed: it compiles + runs. Expected: an error —
|
||||
the name is reachable only as `ns.name`. Root: `Lowering.isNameVisible` walks
|
||||
`program_index.import_graph`, which records BOTH flat (`#import`) and namespaced
|
||||
(`ns :: #import`) edges; bare-name visibility should join only over FLAT edges
|
||||
(`flat_import_graph`). This is the latent 0102-family visibility bug the Phase B
|
||||
caller-mode audit (unified-resolver R5) was told to surface.
|
||||
|
||||
This **directly gates flow `stdlib/B`**: that step requires migrating
|
||||
`isNameVisible`/`isCImportVisible` to the resolver's `user_bare_flat`/
|
||||
`c_import_bare` modes (which walk `flat_import_graph`) **byte-identically**.
|
||||
Switching the edge set drops `run_examples` from 471 → 467 (see face #2), so the
|
||||
byte-identical requirement cannot hold until this bug is fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Reproduction — face #1 (user-facing over-permissiveness)
|
||||
|
||||
```sx
|
||||
// m.sx
|
||||
secret :: () -> s64 { 7 }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```sx
|
||||
// main.sx
|
||||
m :: #import "m.sx";
|
||||
main :: () -> s32 {
|
||||
x := secret(); // bare; `secret` is only namespaced-imported as `m.secret`
|
||||
0
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- **Observed** (current master): compiles, runs, exit `0` — bare `secret`
|
||||
wrongly resolves to `m`'s author.
|
||||
- **Expected**: `error: 'secret' is not visible; #import the module that
|
||||
declares it` (it is reachable only as `m.secret`).
|
||||
|
||||
(With the Phase-B edge-set change applied — `isNameVisible` over
|
||||
`flat_import_graph` — this repro correctly errors, confirming the diagnosis.)
|
||||
|
||||
## Reproduction — face #2 (library comptime entanglement: why a naive fix breaks std)
|
||||
|
||||
```sx
|
||||
// main.sx
|
||||
std :: #import "modules/std.sx";
|
||||
main :: () -> s32 {
|
||||
std.print("hello\n"); // legit qualified call
|
||||
0
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`print` in `std.sx` is a comptime metaprogram:
|
||||
|
||||
```sx
|
||||
print :: ($fmt: string, ..$args) {
|
||||
#insert build_format(fmt); // comptime call to a std-internal fn
|
||||
#insert "out(result);"; // inserts a bare call to a std-internal fn
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The comptime call to `build_format` and the inserted `out(result)` are bare
|
||||
names **authored in std.sx**, but they are visibility-checked in the
|
||||
**consumer's** `current_source_file` context (comptime / `#insert` expansion
|
||||
happens at the call site). Today they pass only because `import_graph[consumer]`
|
||||
contains the namespaced `std` edge. Tightening bare visibility to
|
||||
`flat_import_graph` makes them error
|
||||
(`'build_format' / 'out' is not visible`). The same shape breaks `log` (`emit`).
|
||||
Affected examples when the edge set is switched to flat:
|
||||
`0015-basic-demo`, `0700-modules-import`, `0718-modules-cli-exit-json`,
|
||||
`1030-errors-log-and-comptime` (467/471).
|
||||
|
||||
## Root cause (suspected area)
|
||||
|
||||
- `Lowering.isNameVisible` / `isCImportVisible` — `src/ir/lower.zig` (~1768-1840
|
||||
after the Phase-B refactor; `visibleOverEdges` / `nameVisibleOverEdges`). The
|
||||
cross-module join uses `import_graph` (flat **and** namespaced edges) where it
|
||||
should use `flat_import_graph` for a bare name.
|
||||
- Comptime / `#insert` expansion context: the inserted/comptime-evaluated bare
|
||||
calls of a namespaced module's function are policed against the **consumer's**
|
||||
imports, not the **defining module's** own scope. The existing visibility
|
||||
check already exempts UFCS-alias rewrites and mangled local names as "compiler
|
||||
indirections" (`lower.zig` call site ~7284, identifier site ~3237); inserted /
|
||||
comptime-generated bare calls are the same kind of indirection and are not
|
||||
yet exempt — or, equivalently, the expansion should restore the defining
|
||||
module's `current_source_file`.

||||
