`type tkind = enum i32 { TK_NONE = 0, TK_EOF = 1, ... TK_LAST = 86 }`
replaces the 87-line `def TK_*: i32 = N` cluster in lib/ww/lex/tok.ww.
Numeric values explicit so 990_selfhost's byte-diff against the C-side
`Tkind` enum still passes.
All ~270 reference sites in lib/ww and selfhost/cmd/{wcc,wwdump}
sed-renamed `TK_X` → `tkind.TK_X`. Struct fields (`tok.kind`,
`parser.curkind`) intentionally kept as `i32` — making them `tkind`
shifted some byte-positions in the cgen output and broke 990/993/995
byte-identity probes without an obvious win.
To make the rename non-cascading on every signature, type_assignable
and unify_arith in cmd/wcc/check+type relax to allow enum ↔ int
mixing when storage matches (a `tkind` value flows into an `i32`
slot and vice versa, no explicit cast). This deviates from Hare's
strict enum semantics; doc'd as an explicit pragmatic relaxation
for the compiler's internal enum-shaped kinds. External user code
can still get the type-safety benefit if they declare their
parameters with the enum type.
combined.ww files regenerated by ww build.
Driver-side concatenation flattens module names, but enum member
lookup keyed off the exact lhs ident — so `whence.CUR` worked while
`os.whence.CUR` fell through to w6l with `undefined main.whence`.
C side: fold TY_ENUM members in the post-cexpr cascade too, not
just the early SK_TYPE shortcut. The recursive cexpr lands the
inner N_DOT(os, whence) on the named enum type; the outer access
then folds normally.
Selfhost: cgdot now treats `N_IDENT.MEMBER` and `N_DOT.MEMBER` the
same way, keying off the leaf name. enumlookup strips a trailing
`.`-prefix from the lookup key.
Adds e2e test 700: `use os; os.whence.CUR as i32 == 1`.
w6c_ww now compiles enum end-to-end and emits byte-identical
asm to the C w6c on the new 994 corpus case (`type mode = enum u8
{ R, W, RW = R | W }; main() { return (mode.RW): i32 }`). Mechanism
mirrors the C side:
- collectenums walks every `type X = enum {...}` at file scope and
pre-resolves each member's u64 value (auto-increment from prior,
sibling-ref folding for `RDWR = READ | WRITE`).
- cgdot recognises `EnumName.MEMBER` before the local lookup and
emits MOVQ $value, AX directly.
- cgtypeassert short-circuits when either side is enum: cgexpr on
the LHS lands the value in AX with the right integer width; no
tag/unwrap.
main.combined.ww (wwdump/ + w6c/) regenerated by ww build.
`match (e) { ... }` can now sit in expression position, with each
arm using `yield expr;` to produce the match's value:
let v = match (r) {
case let n: i32 => yield n + 1;
case let s: str => yield s.len: i32 + 100;
};
TK_YIELD keyword + N_YIELD AST node, both appended at the tail of
their enums to keep prior numeric values byte-stable for the
wwdump-diff gates.
Checker: cexpr for N_MATCH walks each arm's body looking for the
first N_YIELD; the match's type is the unified yield type (or
ty_void if no yield, preserving the statement-form semantics).
Mismatched arm yields are flagged.
Cgen: a yield-target stack (separate from the loop break stack)
holds each enclosing match's end label. N_YIELD evaluates its
expression into AX (and BX for str) and JMPs to the topmost entry.
cgmatch pushes its end label on entry and pops on exit.
Selfhost mirror: lib/ww/lex/tok.ww kwtab+name, lib/ww/ast.ww
N_YIELD def+print, lib/ww/parse/stmt.ww yield-stmt; selfhost cgen
adds a yieldbuf to the cgen struct and a cgyield helper. Verified
end-to-end: a yield-using program compiled via the wwstage cgen
matches the C-cgen build's exit code.
C-cgen-side nullable folding landed in f4efaac. This commit catches
the selfhost cgen up so a wwstage-compiled binary produces the same
ABI for `(*T | void)`.
- cgenutil: isnullabletype(), nullableptrtag() helpers shaped to
the selfhost cgen's AST-only world view (it doesn't carry a Type
with a .nullable flag — it walks N_TTAGGED node lists). slotsize
returns 8 for nullable.
- cgenexpr cgmatch: nullable arm uses pointer-vs-null discriminator
and binds only the *T case (void has size 0).
- cgenstmt cglet: nullable target spills only AX (no tag word, no
value-word DX/CX).
- cgenstmt cgreturn: nullable return passes AX through with no
shuffle; bare `return;` emits AX = 0 (void encoding).
Verified end-to-end: a fn returning `(*i32 | void)` compiled by the
wwstage cgen produces the same exit code as the C-cgen build. The
995 fixed-point gate stays green — no selfhost source uses nullable
yet, so the existing tagged paths are still byte-identical.
Selfhost parser (lib/ww/parse/expr.ww) recognises postfix `?` and
`!` at the same level as `as`/`is`/`:`. Selfhost cgen
(selfhost/cmd/wcc/cgenexpr.ww) emits matching code: cmp AX against
the success tag (0 in legacy mode), branch over the propagate /
abort path, then unwrap (DX → AX, CX → BX for str). Mirrors the C
cgen but without the tag-remap loop — none of the selfhost code
that uses `?` today needs cross-shape remapping.
lib/ww/lex/lex.ww \\x escape handling switched from 5-line match
blocks to one-liners: ascii.digitval(c: rune)!. Both digits are
already validated by isxdigit above; the void variant is
unreachable, so `!` collapses correctly. 995 fixed-point gate
verifies the selfhost cgen produces the same `!` codegen as C cgen.
`type invalid = i32` (payload: byte index of first bad rune; mirrors
Hare's strconv::invalid = !size) and `type overflow = void` (Hare's
overflow = !void). stoi64/stou64 now return these instead of the
str-error placeholder. atoi64 dropped — lib/CLAUDE.md says graduate
in one go, don't keep both shapes around.
To produce the void variant payload, `void` is now a real
expression literal (TK_VOID kw, N_VOIDLIT). It evaluates to ty_void;
codegen emits MOVQ $0, AX. Both kinds are appended at the tail of
their enums to keep prior numeric values byte-stable for the
wwdump-diff fixtures.
check_file reorder: USE declarations are now installed in pass 1
alongside the type-decl placeholders so dotted type references
(`strconv.invalid` from a typedecl body) resolve. DEF/FN/LET silently
overwrite a USE-occupied slot — matches the old behavior where USE
silently no-op'd when a same-name fn/def existed (the conflict
manifested in selfhost main.combined.ww at `use parse;` colliding
with `export fn parse(a)`).
selfhost mirror: lib/ww/lex/tok.ww kwtab+name; lib/ww/ast.ww
N_VOIDLIT def+print; lib/ww/parse/{expr,parse}.ww TK_VOID handling;
selfhost/cmd/wcc/cgenexpr.ww N_VOIDLIT codegen.
`e is T` returns bool (variant tag == T's index); `e as T` unwraps
to T or exit(1) on mismatch. Postfix, same precedence as `:` cast.
TK_IS / N_TYPETEST / N_TYPEASSERT appended at the tail of their
enums so every prior numeric value stays unchanged — the
990_selfhost wwdump-diff stays byte-clean.
Cgen mirrors the match-case slot-based load (tag at +0, value at
+8/+16), so an N_IDENT tagged-union local works just like a
match scrutinee. Selfhost cgen inlines the slot resolution
because the wwstage cgen drops sign bits on `*i32` output
parameters in this position.
Renames `errors.is` -> `errors.equal` (the only naming collision;
the existing comment already noted it shared shape with
strings.equal/bytes.equal).
