Verbatim relocation of the 18-method call cluster (lowerCall moved
whole, context diagnostics, foreign-call helper, builtin/function
resolution, generic + runtime-dispatch calls, reflection calls + guards,
default-arg expansion, call param typing) into src/ir/lower/call.zig.
18 fn aliases keep all call sites unchanged.
CaptureInfo (closure-domain type that sat inside the run) travelled and
is re-exposed via a Lowering type alias; candidate to relocate to
lower/closure.zig in B8.3.
Method pub-flips: callResolver, createBareFnTrampoline,
ensureGenericInstanceMethodLowered, fixupMethodReceiver,
getStructTypeName, isStaticTypeArg, lowerPackFnCall, packSpreadRefs,
packVariadicCallArgs, refCapturePointee, resolveParamTypeInSource,
typeSizeBytes, headNameOfCallee.
Gate: zig build OK; zig build test 426/426; run_examples 541/0; zero
expected/ snapshot churn.
Verbatim relocation of the 23-method defined-class cluster (IMP/property
emission: class/alloc/static/dealloc IMPs, property getters/setters +
ARC runtime decls, defined-state field access, property/method chain
lookup, string-constant globals) plus the single-home
ObjcDefinedStateField type into src/ir/lower/objc_class.zig. 23 aliases
on Lowering keep all call sites (incl. expr_typer.zig facade and
lower/stmt.zig) unchanged. Zero pub-flips — all callees were already
public from earlier steps.
Gate: zig build OK; zig build test 426/426; run_examples 541/0; all 37
.ir snapshots byte-identical, zero expected/ churn.
Verbatim relocation of the 19-method coercion cluster (lowerXX, user
conversions, protocol erasure, default-value construction, zero values,
coerceToType implicit/explicit ladder, C-variadic promotion, call-arg
coercion) plus the nested single-home CoerceMode enum into
src/ir/lower/coerce.zig. 19 aliases on Lowering keep all call sites
unchanged.
Method pub-flip: prependCtxIfNeeded. ParamImplEntry stays a Lowering
nested type (field type of param_impl_map) and is reached via an alias
const.
Gate: zig build OK; zig build test 426/426; run_examples 541/0; zero
expected/ snapshot churn.
Verbatim relocation of the 13-method protocol cluster (protocol decl
registration, param-protocol instantiation, thunk creation, vtable
globals, protocol-value construction, dispatch emission, impl lookup)
into src/ir/lower/protocol.zig. 13 fn aliases on Lowering keep all call
sites unchanged.
Two pub nested types travelled with the run (ProjectionPosition,
PackProjection) and are re-exposed via Lowering type aliases; they are
pack-domain types and may relocate to lower/pack.zig in B7.2.
Method pub-flips: allocViaContext, callForeign, genericInstanceMethod,
monomorphizeFunction.
Gate: zig build OK; zig build test 426/426; run_examples 541/0; zero
expected/ snapshot churn.
Verbatim relocation of the 23-method nominal-type cluster (struct/enum/
union/error-set registration, anon-type qualification, nominal-id
stamping, shadow-slot reservation, named-type interning, generic struct
templates + alias registration) plus the nested ShadowTypeDecl union
into src/ir/lower/nominal.zig. 23 aliases on Lowering keep all call
sites unchanged.
Method pub-flip: instantiateGenericStruct. nominal.zig reaches
VisibleStructAuthor and structDeclOfRaw (both relocated to decl.zig in
B4.1) via Lowering-namespace alias consts.
Gate: zig build OK; zig build test 426/426; run_examples 541/0; zero
expected/ snapshot churn.
Verbatim relocation of the 53-method error cluster (error typing,
raise/failable, try/catch/or, inferred-set convergence, trace runtime
hooks) out of the Lowering struct into src/ir/lower/error.zig as free
functions taking *Lowering. Each gets a pub-const alias on Lowering, so
every call site compiles unchanged (decl-alias method resolution).
Pub-flips (callees now referenced cross-file): lowerExpr, coerceToType,
freshBlock, freshBlockWithParams, emitErrorCleanup,
currentBlockHasTerminator, lowerBlock, lowerBlockValue.
Gate: zig build OK; zig build test 426/426; run_examples 541/0; zero
expected/ snapshot churn.
