root.zig had no `test` block, so the test binary discovered zero tests and
trivially "passed" — every src test had silently rotted. Add
`refAllDecls(@This())` to root.zig so all 185 tests run, then fix the rot it
surfaced:
- emit_llvm.test: operands were constants, so LLVM folded the very
instructions being asserted (fadd/sub/icmp/insertvalue/extractvalue/sext).
Rewrite to use function-parameter operands; `main` now returns i32 (entry
convention); tagged-union enum_init lowers via memory, not insertvalue.
- interp.test: switch the per-test allocator to an arena (the interpreter is
arena-style and intentionally frees little) — clears the transient-Value
leaks without an ownership-ambiguous source change.
- lower.test: pass `is_imported` to lowerFunction; mark two helpers `pub`; the
if/else block test now uses a runtime (param) condition since lowering folds
`if true`.
- print.test: SSA numbering — params occupy %0/%1, so consts start at %2.
- jni_java_emit.test: nested-class refs render in Java source form
(`SurfaceHolder.Callback`), not the JNI `$` form.
Leaks fixed at the source where ownership was clear: Module gains an arena for
the operand slices the Builder dupes (struct/call/branch/switch args, block
params, lowerFunction params); objcDefinedStateStructType builds its field
slice in that arena and frees its temp name string.
Second slice of the .type_tag activation. The reflection
intrinsics (`type_name`, `type_eq`, `has_impl`) now have
interp-time implementations that read `.type_tag` Values
directly. Today's lower-time fast path (folding to
`const_string`/`const_bool` when the type arg is statically
resolvable) stays — these interp arms are the fallback path
for when lowering emits a real `builtin_call` because the
arg is interp-time-only (e.g. `args[i]` inside a builder body
where the pack element is bound at interp execution).
Plumbing:
- New BuiltinId entries: `type_name`, `type_eq`, `has_impl`.
- Interp arms in `execBuiltinInner`:
- `type_name(t)`: reads `.type_tag` via `asTypeId`, looks up
via `module.types.typeName`, dupes the slice into the
interp allocator, returns `.string`. Non-`.type_tag` arg
→ `bailDetail` ("argument is not a Type value").
- `type_eq(a, b)`: both args must be `.type_tag`; compares
TypeIds. Either side missing → `bailDetail`.
- `has_impl(P, T)`: bails with a "not yet wired" message —
interp-time has_impl needs a queryable snapshot of the
host's `protocol_thunk_map` + `param_impl_map`, which is
its own follow-up slice. Static-arg has_impl still works
via the lower-time `tryConstBoolCondition` fast path.
- emit_llvm: explicit arms for the three new builtins that
log + map to undef-i64 (Type values are comptime-only; if
one of these reaches LLVM emit, lowering produced wrong
IR — the LLVM verifier downstream surfaces the offending
site).
Three new Zig unit tests in interp.test.zig:
- `type_name builtin on type_tag` — emits a `builtin_call`
to `type_name` with a `const_type(s64)` operand, asserts
the result is the string "s64".
- `type_eq builtin on type_tag values` — two equal Type
operands compare equal.
- (Pre-existing) `const_type yields type_tag` + `type_tag
comparison` from 4.0 still pass.
208/208 example tests + `zig build test` green. No source-
language path constructs `.type_tag` yet — the foundation is
ready for the `$args`-in-expression-position slice that
turns it on for users.
Wires the dormant `Value.type_tag(TypeId)` variant in interp.zig
so Type values flow through the comptime interpreter as
first-class kind-distinguished entities. No source-language
construction path yet — that's a follow-up. This commit is the
infrastructure foundation.
Audit findings (from interp.zig switch-walk):
- Every `else =>` arm over Value is either already loud
(`bailDetail` / `error.TypeError`) or a pass-through helper
(`materializeCtxArg`, `materializeForCall`, `resolveSlotChain`)
where transit-unchanged is semantically correct for type_tag.
No new silent paths introduced by activating the variant.
- The three pre-existing `.type_tag => return bailDetail(...)`
arms (store-at-raw-ptr, deref-non-pointer, unbox-non-aggregate)
already cover the disallowed paths cleanly.
New plumbing:
- `Op.const_type: TypeId` — dedicated opcode. Never piggybacks
on `const_int`. Result IR-type is `.any` to signal "untyped
at runtime" so downstream coercions fail loudly.
- `Builder.constType(tid)` constructor.
- Interp arm emits `Value{ .type_tag = tid }` for the op.
- emit_llvm arm bails loudly + emits an undef-i64 placeholder
(Type is comptime-only — if a Type ever reached LLVM emit,
some upstream builder leaked through; the diagnostic + LLVM
verifier downstream surface the offending site).
- `print.zig` arm prints `const type(<typeName>)`.
- `Value.asTypeId() ?TypeId` helper — the kind-honest accessor
for Type values. asInt/asFloat/asBool/asString continue to
return null for `.type_tag` (no silent coercion).
- `evalCmp` arm for `.type_tag, .type_tag` — TypeId equality.
Mixed `.type_tag` vs `.int` deliberately falls through to
the typeErrorDetail bail (a Type is not an int).
Tests (src/ir/interp.test.zig):
- `const_type yields type_tag` — confirms the variant is
produced and that asTypeId/asInt distinguish correctly.
- `type_tag comparison` — exercises cmp_eq on equal and
unequal pairs, asserts the right bool comes back.
208/208 example tests + `zig build test` green. No user-visible
behaviour change yet — `.type_tag` is constructible from Zig-
side IR builders but no sx-level syntax produces it. Next slice
wires `$args` lowering (or `$args[i]` in expression position)
to emit `const_type` per pack element.
