PHASE 9 COMPLETE — 9.4 GATE PASSES: zero 'foreign' across src/library/examples/
issues/docs/editors/specs/readme/CLAUDE, excluding only the SQLite API constant
SQLITE_CONSTRAINT_FOREIGNKEY + vendored sqlite3.c/.h (upstream third-party).
Suite green (644 corpus / 443 unit, 0 failed).
Surface rename of the signed integer family: s1..s64 become i1..i64
(u1..u64, usize, isize unchanged). 'string' keeps the s-prefix arm in
name classification; width parsing moves to the i-prefix arm next to
isize.
Internal TypeId tags follow the surface (.s8/.s16/.s32/.s64 ->
.i8/.i16/.i32/.i64), as do mono-key mangle fragments (ptr_i64,
tu_i64_bool) and all display/diagnostic formatting (i{d}).
Migrated in the same sweep: stdlib + examples + issue repros + FFI C
companions (shared symbol names like ffi_id_i64), expected
stdout/stderr/ir snapshots, specs.md, readme.md, CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md,
implementation_plan.md, docs/, issue writeups. Vendored stb_image and
historical flow state left untouched.
zig build test: 426/426; examples suite: 595/595.
The reserved-type-name binding diagnostic fired correctly but underlined the
enclosing statement / if / while / for / match / protocol / #objc_class block
because every binding-name check reused the parent `node.span`.
Thread each binding name's own span through the AST and parser, and pass it to
`checkBindingNames`:
- ast: add name spans to VarDecl, DestructureDecl, If/WhileExpr, ForExpr
(capture + index), MatchArm, Catch/OnFailStmt, Protocol/ForeignMethodDecl.
- parser: populate each span at the binding site from the name token's loc;
destructure reuses each target identifier's own span.
- semantic_diagnostics: every checkBindingName call now passes the binding's
own span — no site falls back to node.span. fn/lambda params already used
Param.name_span.
Carets now land on the offending identifier itself. New regression
examples/1125 asserts the protocol default-body and sx-defined #objc_class
method param spans; 0125/1119-1124 expected updated to the precise carets.
The reserved/builtin-type-name binding diagnostic was a hand-walked subset
of binding-bearing AST nodes with a silent `else => {}`, so each review
found another syntactic binding form that bypassed it and hit the original
LLVM verifier abort: destructure names (`s2, x := …`), `impl` method
params/locals, and `if` / `while` / `for` / match-arm / `catch` / `onfail`
captures.
Rewrite `checkBindingNames` (src/ir/semantic_diagnostics.zig) as an
EXHAUSTIVE `switch` over every `Node.Data` tag with NO `else` arm — a future
binding-bearing node type now fails to compile until it is handled here, so
coverage is enforced by the compiler instead of a hand-maintained list. The
check stays in the pre-lowering semantic pass rather than moving to the
`Scope.put` scope-registration choke point: lowering is lazy, so an
uncalled function's bindings never reach `Scope.put`, yet they must still be
rejected at their declaration (e.g. the never-called `takes_u8` in 1119).
No lowering special-case; `lower.zig` unchanged.
Regression tests (fail-before: LLVM abort or silent accept → pass-after:
clean diagnostic, exit 1):
- 1121 control-flow: destructure, if/while bindings, for capture+index,
match-arm capture
- 1122 impl-block method: reserved param AND reserved local
- 1123 catch + onfail tag bindings
- 1124 destructure name reserved in an imported module
Existing 0125 / 1119 / 0135 / 1120 tests kept; full suite 368 passed.
The issue-0076 reserved-type-name binding diagnostic only ran over main-file
decls, so an imported module (or the stdlib) could still declare `s2 := ...`
and reach lowering, where the address-of family loads the whole aggregate and
passes it by value to a `ptr` param — LLVM verifier abort.
Extend coverage to every compiled module: a dedicated `checkBindingNames` walk
(in semantic_diagnostics.zig) visits every var/`:=`/typed-local binding name and
function/lambda/struct-method parameter at any depth, with NO main-file filter,
descending the `namespace_decl` that a `mod :: #import` wraps so imported-module
decls are reached. It tracks each module's source_file (save/restore per node)
so the diagnostic renders against the imported module's text. Rejection still
defers to the parser's `Type.fromName` classifier; the unknown-type check (0064)
stays main-file-only. No lowering special-case; `.identifier`-only address-of
paths are unchanged.
Stdlib audit: the only reserved-name bindings under library/ were two `u1`
locals in ui/renderer.sx (UV coords) — renamed to u_min/u_max/v_min/v_max.
Regression test: examples/1120-diagnostics-imported-reserved-type-name.sx (+
companion mod.sx) — an imported `s2 := ...` now emits the clean diagnostic at
the import's declaration site (exit 1), not an LLVM abort.
Resolves issues 0076 (coverage extension) and 0077.
A value binding (local/global `var` or a parameter) spelled as a
reserved/builtin type name parses as a `.type_expr` rather than an
`.identifier` (parser.zig, via `Type.fromName`), so the address-of
family in lower.zig never saw a scoped local and mis-lowered it —
loading the aggregate and passing it by value to a `ptr` parameter
(LLVM verifier abort, or a silent `*self`-mutation-losing copy).
Add a declaration-site diagnostic in semantic_diagnostics.zig
(`UnknownTypeChecker.checkBindingName`): reject any parameter name or
`var` binding name (`:=` / typed-local / global forms) whose spelling
collides with a reserved type name. `isReservedTypeName` defers to the
parser's own classifier (`types.Type.fromName`) so the rejected set
never drifts from the set that would parse as a type — the named
builtins (bool/string/void/f32/f64/usize/isize/Any) and `[su]N` over
sx's 1-64 range. Bare value names (`s`, `self`, `index`) are untouched.
No lowering special-case; the `.identifier`-only address-of paths are
correct once type-shaped names can never be bound. The rejected
attempt-1 `bareVarName` approach was never landed.
Tests:
- 0125-types-type-named-var-rejected: `:=` form (s2) rejected
(repurposed from the old test that asserted the now-illegal behavior).
- 1119-diagnostics-reserved-type-name-as-identifier: parameter (u8),
typed-local (s64, bool), `:=` (string) forms rejected.
- 0135-types-self-streaming-nonreserved: positive — `*self` streaming
with non-reserved names accumulates correctly via both call styles.
- 0904-optionals: renamed incidental locals s1/s2 -> filled/empty.
