K : [4]s64 : .[...] and the untyped A :: .[1, 2, 3] register as
is_const globals: one storage, reads GEP it, dead-global elimination
drops unused ones, source-aware reads come free via selectGlobalAuthor.
- registerConstArrayGlobal (scanDecls pass 2): typed via the annotation
(array-ness + dimension/count checked), untyped via element-type
unification — all ints s64; ANY float promotes the element type to
f64 with ints converting exactly; bool/string homogeneous; a
non-numeric mix or non-inferable element asks for an annotation.
- constExprValue converts int elements into float destinations exactly
(the int+float promotion rule, element-wise).
- emitGlobals marks is_const globals LLVMSetGlobalConstant — also flips
the comptime-backed #run globals and __sx_default_context to
'constant' (37 pinned IR snapshots regenerated; runtime unchanged).
- Element shapes: nested arrays, struct elements, strings, bools.
Non-constant elements / dim mismatch / mixed types diagnose loudly.
Examples: 0177 (feature matrix incl. @K reads through *[4]s64 — needs
the 0117 fix), 1159/1160/1161 (diagnostics), 0837 repointed to values.
With 0115's own-wins globals landed, the remaining tail modules join
std.sx: every '#import "modules/std.sx"' now carries mem/xml/log/fs/
process/socket/json/cli/hash/test as namespaces (trace stays a direct
import).
Enablers in the same change:
- emit: dead-global elimination — a plain-data global no instruction
references is not emitted, so tail modules' data (hash's 64-entry K
table, OS/ARCH/POINTER_SIZE) stays out of binaries that don't use it.
Comptime-backed globals keep their #run evaluation. 37 pinned IR
snapshots regenerated (dead globals dropped + string renumbering from
the larger module).
- 1055/1056 stop pinning the global error-tag ordinal (it shifts with
program composition); they assert nonzero + tag identity + name.
- specs/readme/CLAUDE.md tail docs updated.
allocators/fs/process/socket/log/trace/test move under modules/std/
(allocators.sx becomes std/mem.sx; the Allocator protocol moves into
the std.sx prelude, impls stay in mem.sx). New std/xml.sx holds
xml_escape as xml.escape. std.sx gains the carried namespace tail —
flat-importing std.sx now also provides mem./xml./log. — with the
remaining modules (fs/process/socket/json/cli/hash/test) deferred from
the tail until the global last-wins maps are fully own-wins (pulling
them into every closure collides bare names corpus-wide; they stay
direct imports: modules/std/fs.sx etc.). log.sx's internal emit
renamed log_emit (it clobbered consumer fns named emit program-wide).
bundle.sx uses xml.escape via the carried alias. Consumer import paths
swept mechanically; .ir snapshots recaptured for the larger std
closure. m3te + game build unchanged.
An alloca built at its use site re-executes on every pass through that
block, and LLVM reclaims allocas only at ret — so loop-body locals,
nested-loop index slots, and emitter spill temps (ig.tmp, sret slots, ABI
coercion temps, byval materialization) grew the stack per iteration and
long loops segfaulted on stack exhaustion.
New LLVMEmitter.buildEntryAlloca inserts after existing entry-block
allocas and restores the builder position; every LLVMBuildAlloca site
reachable during instruction emission now routes through it.
Initialization stores stay at the use site (per-iteration re-init is
unchanged), and entry slots become mem2reg-promotable. The 35 .ir
snapshot diffs are pure alloca position moves (type multisets verified
identical per file).
Regression: examples/0047-basic-loop-local-stack-reuse.sx (segfaulted
pre-fix on both the 1M-iteration body-local loop and the 3M-iteration
nested loop).
`type_name` / `type_is_unsigned` on an `Any` argument unconditionally read
the Any's payload as a TypeId index. That is correct only when the Any holds
a Type value (`{ .any, tid }`); for an Any holding a runtime *value*
(`av : Any = 6`, tag s64, payload 6) it returned `types[6]` — `type_name(av)`
gave "u8" and `type_is_unsigned(av)` gave true.
Both backends now branch on the Any's runtime type-tag: tag == `.any` → the
box is a Type value, use the payload as the TypeId; otherwise the tag IS the
held value's type. So `type_name(av)` → "s64", `type_is_unsigned(av)` → false,
while `type_name(type_of(x))` still names the held type. The `{}` formatter is
unchanged (it already passed `type_of(val)`, a proper Type value).
- src/ir/interp.zig: shared `Value.reflectTypeId` tag-branching resolver; the
`type_name` / `type_is_unsigned` interp arms route through it.
- src/backend/llvm/ops.zig: shared `Ops.reflectArgTypeId` emits
extractvalue-tag / icmp-eq-.any / select for the runtime path; both
reflection arms route through it. The two backends agree.
- examples/0164-types-reflection-any-tag.sx: regression pinning type_name /
type_is_unsigned / print on an Any holding a value vs a Type.
- src/ir/interp.test.zig: unit test for `reflectTypeId`.
- 22 .ir snapshots: the new select appears in every std-importing program's
IR (any_to_string embeds these builtins) — benign, verified structurally
identical apart from the three new instructions.
- issues/0090, specs.md: documented the Any-tag rule.
Resolves issue 0090. The `{}` integer formatter mis-rendered both ends of
the 64-bit range:
- `int_to_string` computed the magnitude as `0 - n`, which overflows for
`s64::MIN` (its magnitude is unrepresentable as a positive s64) — the
value stayed negative, the digit loop ran zero times, so only `-`
printed. It now extracts digits straight from `n` (per-digit
`|n % 10|`, `n` truncating toward zero), never negating MIN.
- `any_to_string`'s `case int:` formatted every integer as s64, so a u64
all-ones value printed as `-1`. There was no `uint` type-category to
distinguish signedness. Added an additive `type_is_unsigned(T)`
reflection builtin (static fold + dynamic interp/LLVM paths, mirroring
`type_name`), backed by the new `TypeTable.isUnsignedInt` predicate, and
a `uint_to_string` formatter (unsigned decimal via long-division over
four 16-bit limbs). `case int:` routes through `type_is_unsigned(type)`.
The 16-bit-limb split is factored into a shared `decompose_u16x4`, now
reused by `int_to_hex_string` (no second unsigned-math routine).
Regression: examples/0046-basic-int-formatter-extremes pins both extremes
plus a width spread; unit tests cover `isUnsignedInt`. Docs (specs.md
representation note, readme std API) updated for unsigned/extreme `{}`
behavior. IR snapshots refreshed for the two new std functions.
