Cascades the four enum kinds through every signature and local that
holds one of their values, then removes the type_assignable /
unify_arith relaxation that previously let bare i32 mix with the
named enum types.
Signature updates:
- kwlookup() now returns `tkind` (not i32); tokname() takes `tkind`
- accepttok / expecttok / bprec / isassignop take `tkind`
- parsearglist's closekind is `tkind`
- newtype / prim take `tykind`; scopedefine takes `skind`
- newnode / nkname take `nkind`
Struct fields:
- tok.kind is `tkind`; parser.curkind is `tkind`
- node.kind is `nkind`; node.op is `tkind`
- tinfo.kind is `tykind`; sym.skind is `skind`
Locals holding kinds across lex/parse/check/cgen are now typed with
their enum, including sentinel patterns like `let lkind: nkind =
nkind.N_NONE; if (...) lkind = tn.kind;`.
The selfhost cgen had a load-width bug exposed by this: fieldsize()
fell back to 8 bytes for any TNAME that wasn't a struct or primitive.
For a tkind-typed field that gave `MOVQ (BX), AX` instead of `MOVL`,
diverging from the C cgen on tok.kind / parser.curkind / etc. Two
fixes:
- fieldsize now consults the enum registry and returns the storage
type's size (4 for `enum i32`)
- collectenums runs before collectstructs in cgfile so the registry
is populated when registerstruct asks for field sizes
All 22 tests stay green; 990/993/995 byte-identity probes pass with
the strict typing in place.
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.
ascii.digitval returns (i32 | void) instead of an i32 -1 sentinel.
Two callers updated to match-on the result (lib/ww/lex/lex.ww escape
parse, selfhost/test/smoke.ww probe 6).
`!` would have been more idiomatic at both call sites — both have
verified isxdigit beforehand — but the selfhost parser doesn't yet
recognize postfix `!`/`?`, so using them in bootstrap-bound code
breaks the 993/995 byte-identity gates. Match is fine for now.
Selfhost cgen follow-on for the 8-byte-rounded tagged-union ABI
(landed in 1e2f55a for the C side):
- cgenutil.slotsize: tagged size = 8 (tag) + max(payload), padded to
8-byte multiple. Was hardcoded 24.
- cgendecl prologue: spill size/8 arg registers, not always 3.
- cgenstmt cglet tagged-call path: spill the CX value-word only when
the slot is >16 bytes.
All three were emitting 3-register patterns appropriate to (T | str)
sized unions and overflowing the new 16-byte (i32 | void) slots.
