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.

**FIXED.** `packVariadicCallArgs` ([src/ir/lower.zig](../src/ir/lower.zig))
|
|
now detects a protocol element type and `xx`-erases each arg into the
|
|
`[N]P` array via `buildProtocolErasure`, instead of storing the raw concrete
|
|
value. Regression: [examples/202-slice-of-protocol-variadic.sx](../examples/202-slice-of-protocol-variadic.sx).
|
|
|
|
# Symptom
|
|
|
|
A slice-of-protocol variadic `..xs: []P` (P a protocol) compiles but **crashes
|
|
at runtime** (Bus error) the moment an element is used:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Bus error at address 0x3fff
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Reproduction
|
|
|
|
```sx
|
|
#import "modules/std.sx";
|
|
Show :: protocol { show :: () -> string; }
|
|
A :: struct { x: i64; }
|
|
impl Show for A { show :: (self: *A) -> string => "A"; }
|
|
|
|
each :: (..xs: []Show) -> void {
|
|
i := 0;
|
|
while i < xs.len { print("{}\n", xs[i].show()); i = i + 1; }
|
|
}
|
|
main :: () -> i32 { each(A.{ x = 1 }, A.{ x = 2 }); 0; }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Root cause
|
|
|
|
`packVariadicCallArgs` packs trailing args into a `[N x elem_ty]` stack array.
|
|
It special-cased `is_any = (elem_ty == .any)` (box each arg to `Any`), but for
|
|
any other non-builtin `elem_ty` it stored the **raw lowered arg** into the
|
|
array slot. When `elem_ty` is a protocol struct (16 bytes `{ctx, vtable}`), an
|
|
8-byte concrete `A` value was written into a protocol-sized slot — a
|
|
size/type mismatch producing a garbage `{ctx, vtable}`. Indexing it and
|
|
calling `.show()` then jumped through a bad vtable → Bus error.
|
|
|
|
# Fix
|
|
|
|
Mirror the `xx` cast: when the slice element type is a protocol, erase each arg
|
|
to the protocol value before storing.
|
|
|
|
```zig
|
|
const elem_is_protocol = blk: {
|
|
if (elem_ty.isBuiltin()) break :blk false;
|
|
const ei = self.module.types.get(elem_ty);
|
|
break :blk ei == .@"struct" and ei.@"struct".is_protocol;
|
|
};
|
|
// ... per arg, in the non-`is_any` path:
|
|
} else if (elem_is_protocol) {
|
|
var source_ty = self.inferExprType(arg_node);
|
|
if (source_ty == .unresolved) source_ty = self.builder.getRefType(val);
|
|
if (source_ty != elem_ty) val = self.buildProtocolErasure(val, arg_node, source_ty, elem_ty);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This makes `..xs: []P` the runtime, protocol-erased counterpart to the
|
|
comptime heterogeneous pack `..xs: P` (which stays comptime-only per Decision
|
|
1). See specs.md §"Variadic Heterogeneous Type Packs" for the full
|
|
form-comparison table.
|
|
|
|
# Verification
|
|
|
|
`examples/202-slice-of-protocol-variadic.sx` prints `[0]=A [1]=B [2]=A` and the
|
|
empty call is a no-op. `zig build test` + `bash tests/run_examples.sh` (237)
|
|
green.
