async_void :: ufcs (io, worker: Closure() -> $R) -> Future($R) was redundant:
the variadic async :: ufcs (io, worker: Closure(..$args) -> $R, ..$args) binds
$args to the empty pack, so context.io.async(() -> $R => ...) already calls
worker() and returns Future($R). The name was also misleading — it returns
Future($R), not void (a true void form is Future(void), separate, blocked by
issue 0150).
Removed the definition (std/io.sx) + the std.sx re-export; nothing else
referenced it. Locked the nullary path in examples/1805 (prints nullary: 42) so
the coverage async_void provided is not lost. Suite green 736/0.
With the three surface blockers fixed (0151 generic inference, 0152
Atomic(bool), 0153 re-export failable channel), the M:1 async surface works
end-to-end on the blocking Io default. Landed the corpus examples:
- 1805-concurrency-io-blocking-async.sx: context.io.async(lambda, ..args)
runs the worker inline, await() or {…} yields the result; context.io.now_ms()
reads the monotonic clock. Prints sum: 42 / double: 42 / clock ok.
- 1806-concurrency-io-cancel.sx: f.cancel() marks the future canceled so a
later await() raises error.Canceled out of its (R, !IoErr) channel, caught
with or. Prints ok: 7 / canceled: -99.
B1.2 (Io capability on Context + async/await/cancel + blocking CBlockingIo) is
complete. Suite green 732/0. Next: B1.3 (fiber runtime).
Threads an `Io` capability onto `Context` exactly like `Allocator`: a
`protocol #inline` whose process-wide default is a stateless `CBlockingIo`
(the mirror of `CAllocator`), installed in `__sx_default_context`.
Library (library/modules/std):
- core.sx: `Io` protocol (spawn_raw / suspend_raw / ready / poll / now_ms /
arm_timer) + `SpawnOpts` / `PinTarget` / `ParkToken`; `Context` gains an
`io: Io` field LAST (allocator stays index 0, data stays index 1).
- io.sx (new): `CBlockingIo` + `impl Io` (blocking M:1 semantics — now_ms is
a real monotonic clock, the rest are no-ops/0; suspend never called);
`Future($R)` { value; state: FutureState; err: IoErr; park; task; canceled:
Atomic(bool) } with `Value :: R`; the async ergonomic layer
`async` / `async_void` / `await` (value-carrying `(R, !IoErr)`) / `cancel`.
Built with the verified `= ---` + field-assign + `Closure(..$args) -> $R` +
`..$args` idiom (NON-void $R only — Future(void) is deferred per issue 0150).
- std.sx: re-export the Io surface + the io.sx tail.
Compiler (src/ir):
- protocol.zig `emitDefaultContextGlobal` + comptime_vm.zig
`materializeDefaultContext`: both materializers of `__sx_default_context`
now build the inline CBlockingIo->Io vtable (7 words) at the new field.
- stmt.zig `lowerPush`: `push Context.{...}` now INHERITS omitted fields from
the ambient context (seed the slot from current_ctx_ref, overwrite only the
literal's named fields) — correct capability-bag semantics, so the partial
`push Context.{ allocator = X }` sites don't zero a null `io` vtable.
- protocols.zig + lower.zig + error_analysis.zig: record protocol-impl method
names so the "declared `!` but never errors" lint skips a conforming impl
whose `!` is dictated by the protocol contract (e.g. Io.suspend_raw).
37 `.ir` snapshots regenerated: layout-only (the Context type now carries the
Io field, shifting type-table numbering); no stdout/stderr/exit changes.
The blocking Io + now_ms + Future/async work when `async` is called with the
receiver passed explicitly; the user-facing UFCS form `context.io.async(...)`
is blocked on a separate UFCS generic-inference bug (filed next).
Suite: 726 ran, 0 failed.
Adds the blocking-Io async/await example with a seeded empty .exit marker.
The example fails today (Io protocol + context.io + async/await not yet
implemented); the next commit lands the Io interface + blocking impl +
both __sx_default_context materializers + push-inherit fix to turn it green.
Worker is a lambda with annotated params (the verified B1.2 idiom);
named-fn workers are deferred pending a :: callable-param feature.
