Try-propagation on a nullable value fell to the tagged path and
compared the pointer to a tag — the null check came out inverted.
Mirror ww's own cgtypetest nullable fold (cgenexpr.ww:652) and the
cstage twin (cgen.c:10366/10504). Review item #15.
exprtype N_MATCH took the first arm's yield type without walking the
rest — int-vs-str arms silently produced garbage downstream. Walk all
arms: typeeq-equal accepts; a definite coarse-family mismatch
(num/str/bool via the new yieldclass classifier, unknown classes stay
lenient) rejects. Same-family non-assignable pairs remain lenient —
the documented precision residual is task #52 (needs tinfo-level
type_assignable). The wave's table-driven reject test lands here:
989_catA_f2_reject, 19 rows x 2 stages, each member pre-fix-red-proven.
The F8 multi-success gate counted a `...inner` spread as one variant,
bypassing the multi-success reject. New trycountvariants recursively
flattens spreads (the #209 recursion; cstage check.c:2160). Also
carries the rule-7 deferral cites for the adjacent task-#50/#51 holes
(exprtypeoftry lookups, desugarcallargs fn-ptr bail, checkisas) — the
attempted scopelookupprefer hardening is byte-id-blocked by the #50
curmod layer (evidence in the task).
The size()/align() intercept hid behind a shadow gate with no cstage
twin — a shadowed name silently folded to zero. Intercept
unconditionally and make an unresolvable type a loud error, mirroring
cstage check.c:93/1538; the dead shadow gate is dropped.
wwstage ran no operand-kind check on binary/unary operators: str+str
compiled to integer ADD on the 24B header (silent garbage). Gate each
operator class on the operand kind, mirroring cstage check.c:1186-1238
wording; the pre-existing ptr-arith arm aligns to intkindast so
ptr+untyped_int keeps compiling (byte-id-neutral, the over-reject the
self-compile gate caught). New intkindast/numkindast/boolkindast
predicates.
arrayelen silently folded a non-const dimension to 0 — the 0-sized
slot aliased its neighbor (review item: cs loud / ww rc=0 clobber).
Mirror cstage check.c:715. Test rows land with the wave's final commit.
A module-global float-bearing struct passed by value drained all-GP —
the SSE-cursor classify keyed on the node shape and missed the global
ident; key off the stamped struct type (per-eightbyte classify,
F7-flavored stamp fix). Review item #31; dual-stage rows red-proven.
Widening a global tagged union into a wider tagged slot copied
nothing of the box; treat the global ident as a tagged source and
copy the full box from g(SB) through the nested arm. Both-wrong pair:
cstage spills frame garbage as the box (filed task #44, residual
non-deterministic so the rows assert divergence only). The non-nested
SUBSET-widen shape remains open as task #49 (site comment at the
fall-through). Review item #51.
Widening a global struct into a tagged slot copied word0 only; copy
the full payload from g(SB). Both-wrong pair: cstage zero-fills the
payload (filed task #43); rows pin ww-runtime-correct with the
documented cstage residual. Review item #50.
Returning a global struct by name emitted nothing into the return
scratch (ww) — copy from the g(SB) base. Both-wrong pair: cstage
zeroes the retscr instead (filed task #42); rows pin ww-runtime-correct
with the documented cstage residual. Review item #41.
Reassigning a module-global tagged union stored the payload into the
tag word; emit the full tag+payload store to g(SB). Both-wrong pair:
cstage silently DROPS the store entirely (filed task #41) — rows pin
ww-runtime-correct and the documented cstage residual. Review item #32.
The probe accepted any inner ident, hijacking same-leaf locals as a
module qualifier; gate on the untyped(module) inner only (mirror the
cstage twin). Review item #20; dual-stage rows red-proven.
The global tagged ident operand read saved BP instead of the global:
'is' compared garbage as the tag; 'as' never had a payload. Route the
load through the g(SB) base — tag at +0, payload at +8, cap at +16 for
str (one mechanism, both consumers). The 'is' half aligns ww UP
(cs==ww pinned); the 'as' half is a both-wrong pair — cstage spills an
uninitialized payload register (its N_TYPEASSERT assumes cgexpr filled
AX/DX/CX; filed as task #46), so its rows assert ww-runtime-correct
with the cs divergence documented until #46 lands. Review item #18.
Slicing a module-global str with default hi emitted nothing for the
bound; load the len word from g(SB)+8 (mirror the cstage twin).
Review item #47; dual-stage rows red-proven.
A slice-typed field of a module-global struct stored only the str-form
words; widen the arm to the full slice header via the g(SB) base
(mirror cgen.c sibling arm). Review item #35; dual-stage rows red-proven.
wwstage computed tagged sizes/tags off the raw variant list — size()
folded wrong constants (size((*u8|void)) 16 vs 8, (i32|never) 16 vs 4)
and duplicate variants got divergent tag numbering vs cstage, while
ww's own cgen layout folded nullable but its size() didn't. Make
tinfofornode's N_TTAGGED arm the normalization SSoT mirroring cstage
resolve_type (check.c:801-882): never-drop, duplicate dedup via
structural typeeq, single-variant collapse, nullable fold on the
normalized pair; astsize/astalign delegate, and voidvariantindex reads
the normalized ti.params (cgen.c:900-911) so construct/match/void tag
readers agree. Corpus-neutral (zero-move on all combineds);
989_tagnorm_run pins the folds dual-stage, red-proven. Review items
#1/#3; residual #45 filed (AST-keyed nullable gate at global emit).
nodefnptr matched bare idents by NAME against the fn table, so a
global var colliding with a fn leaf classified as a fn pointer —
wwstage silently built what cstage rejects at link (review finding
#14). Key on the stamped type; the #124 &mod.fn arm is preserved.
989_fnptrcollide_run pins both stages reject (red 1/2 pre-fix:
wwstage built rc=7).
cgindex's tagged-element classification whitelisted base node kinds;
call- and slice-based tagged elements fell off the list and dropped
the payload words (review finding #23). Classify by the stamped
element type. 989_taggedidx_run pins cs==ww (red 2/6 pre-fix).
A bare module-global unsigned operand got signed IDIV/SAR/Jcc — the
predicate's ident arm only consulted the local table, so globals fell
through to signed (review finding #25). Read the stamp for the global
arm; corpus emission is unmoved (no bootstrap code div/shift/cmps a
bare unsigned global). 989_gunsigned_run pins cs==ww (red 3/8
pre-fix).
for-range destructure of an element with a slice- or tuple-typed field
strode by the default 8 (paramfieldsize had no N_TSLICE/N_TTUPLE arms),
silently reading the wrong words (review finding #43; live repro
cs=42 vs ww=8). Add the arms routed through tinfo per rule 13.
989_tupfieldsize_run pins cs==ww (red 1/2 pre-fix); rows assert
convergence, not absolutes — cstage's own single-word destructure-load
bug is filed as task #40. The N_TARRAY arm is deferred (task #39,
rule-7 comment at the fall-through).
cgindex read one word for a str/slice ELEMENT of a chained index
(xs[i][j], f().s[i]) — the element-kind gate keyed on node shape and
missed non-simple bases, dropping the 24B/16B header load (review
finding #22). Key on the element-type stamp; 989_chainidx_run pins
cs==ww (red 3/8 pre-fix).
A slice/str ELEMENT of an indexed expression passed as a call-arg
pushed one word instead of the 24B/16B header — the predicates had no
N_INDEX arm, so element-typed args fell to the scalar path (review
findings #45/#46). Read the element-type stamp; dual-stage rows in
989_idxarg_run pin cs==ww (red 2/8 on pre-fix binaries).
Collapse the localfindnode tnode read to the stamped n.type_ — a
zero-delta mechanic validation for the F7 predicate type-keying arc:
self-compile byte-id holds on all four bootstrap combineds, proving
n.type_ matches the local-table truth on every corpus local before
any behavior-changing conversion lands. The localfindnode gate stays
so a global-not-def ident still routes false.
wwstage's desugarcallargs ran no general per-arg typecheck (only the
narrow #258 array-to-slice arm): any mistyped scalar call-arg silently
miscompiled (int read as a 24B slice header; the -T face was a user
const __wwtests building a garbage test binary). Route every call-arg
through the predicate union isassignable()||assignableaddrfn(),
mirroring cstage type_assignable||assignable_addrfn and the check.c:1869
diagnostic. Confident scalar/aggregate and aggregate/aggregate
kind-mismatch rejects live in shared isassignable; the concrete-to-
tagged arm is shape-matched-lenient via tagshape() (AST mirror of cgen
taggedvariantindext) so genuine variant members keep flowing while
shape-mismatched aggregates reject. Reserve __wwtests under -T in both
stages (mirror the main reservation, check.c:2996). New table-driven
989_callarg_typecheck, 31 fixtures, reject rows proven red on pre-fix
binaries.
Deferred, filed, site-commented: the assign seam rides #178->#36
(typeeqast cannot compare variadic/module-qualified fn sigs); the
same-coarse-shape same-leaf nominal collision over-accept rides #37
(#10/#66 — the distinguishing module is absent from the AST surface
isassignable operates on).
wwstage stamped N_RUNELIT as concrete rune (cstage: untyped_rune,
check.c:1296), so an uncast rune literal into a fitting integer slot
over-rejected where harec accepts (promote_flexible). Add coercerunelit
(mirror of coercefloatlit) at the scalar seams — let-init, return,
call-arg, index-store; coarse accept, no range check (mirror cstage
type.c:379); array-literal elements keep the range gate
(arrlit_init_fits, types.c:923). Teeth: the fnmatch.ww '\\': u8
workaround cast and getopttest's 'X': u8 index-store casts are removed
and compile green. Checker-only (no e.type_ restamp): byte-id held.
For an SK_FN sym, exprtype's N_IDENT and N_DOT arms returned decl.lhs
(the return type), so a bare fn rvalue compared as its return type —
latent silent mis-accept of mismatched-signature fn assignment (the
706/768 over-reject under any general check was the visible face).
Synthesize the N_TFN instead (mirror of assignableaddrfn's synth), and
add the N_TFN-vs-N_TFN confident-mismatch reject in isassignable.
harec: resolve_function check.c:4279-4288 (obj->type=fntype),
EXP_ACCESS check.c:341-343 (bare ident yields obj->type, no decay),
call check.c:1573, assignability types.c:1001; cstage twin
check.c:1313 + build_fn_type check.c:2611. cgen is name-keyed on fn
rvalues (never reads the stamp): zero asm delta, byte-id held.
White-box @tests move into a colocated 'package regex' file (Hare
+test.ha analogue; #6 non-T drop plays the build-tag role), black-box
@tests stay in package regex_test — Go's foo/foo_test split. The
wb/ stub driver is documented-temporary scaffolding: a same-dir
importer file-resolves to regex.ww before dir-enumeration, so only a
different-dir import bundles the whitebox sibling (task #33 retires
it). CLAUDE.md rule-9 carve-out updated (#5 closed, gate was #6).
`ww test <file> <pattern>` runs only the @test fns whose names match the
fnmatch glob; no pattern runs all (byte-for-byte the pre-filter path);
zero matches prints "No tests run" and exits 0 (Hare ground truth
ref/hare/test/+test.ha:114-117). A pattern in directory mode is rejected
"ww test: pattern needs a single test file" (rc 2), identical wording in
both twins (cmd/ww/main.c do_test + selfhost/cmd/ww/main.ww dotest).
Mechanism (a): rt/start.s stashes argc/argv into rt_argc/rt_argv getters
(rt_envp twin shape, -T synth untouched so 990-997 byte-id holds);
lib/os.args() rebuilds the []str view, build-once-cached; lib/test/run.ww
imports fnmatch and filters av[1..] (argv[0] is the binary path). The
driver forwards the 2nd positional as argv[1] via fork/execv (cstage) /
procrun (wwstage) so glob metachars aren't shell-expanded.
os.args() is the first `alloc`-caller in the base os module, so os.ww now
imports rt — the `alloc` builtin's malloc lowers to rt_malloc only when
the rt binding is bundled (mirror lib/strings/strings.ww:30); without it a
plain `ww build` of any os-importing program links bare libc `malloc`
(undefined). os is bundled by ~every program, so this is load-bearing.
The lib/test floor rises os-only -> os+fnmatch+ascii+strings in every -T
build; the bundled `ascii` module vs a `@test fn ascii` collision that
exposed is closed by the preceding #30 promote commit. 989_test_filter
pins the full matrix on both twins byte-identically; 949 gains the
dir-mode reject row. (#17)
A primary-package top-level decl whose leaf also names a bundled module
(`type sym` vs `import sym`; the lib/test->fnmatch->ascii -T floor's
`ascii` module vs a `@test fn ascii`) collided in the flat scope: #23's
installtop dup-check false-fired "duplicate fn/type" where cstage
coexists. cstage keys the module name out of the value namespace by
PROMOTING the same-leaf SK_USE in place to the value kind with
use_alias=1 (cmd/wcc/check.c:2831/2848/2871/2907/2928/2951), so one
correctly-kinded sym serves bare refs (call/structlit/var) while
`name.member` still resolves the module via the `kind==SK_USE ||
use_alias` N_DOT guards (check.c:87/1337).
This REVERSES wwstage's documented two-sym coexistence design
(lib/ww/sym.ww scopelookupuselocal): keeping the SK_USE as a separate
coexisting sym ripples into every bare-reference resolver (~25
scopelookup sites), and a missed site is a byte-id-consistent-but-wrong
cat-A risk the gate cannot prove away — the same failure mode retired
with the name-keyed variant-match cluster. The promote model is correct
by construction: one sym of the right kind, identical to cstage.
sym gains a use_alias field; the three N_DOT/N_CALL module-qualified
guards honor use_alias. cstage installs every SK_USE in a dedicated
first pass, so its value-arm promote is order-INDEPENDENT; wwstage
installs in source order, so BOTH directions of the collision are
promoted to reach cstage's identical single-sym end state:
- use-before-value (`import aa` then `fn aa`): installtop promotes the
pre-installed SK_USE to the value kind (use_alias=1).
- value-before-use (`fn aa` then `import aa`): installdecl's N_USE arm
promotes the pre-installed value sym in place (set use_alias=1,
no coexisting SK_USE), mirroring cstage's self-import N_USE arm
(check.c:2823-2834 `if (prev) prev->use_alias = 1`).
Both orders compile + are cs/ww byte-identical AND byte-identical to
each other. Cannot split: promote without the guards leaves
`name.member` red on the promoted sym; the guards without promote are
inert (no use_alias is ever set) — no bisect-clean intermediate. (#30)
Pins (910/997): modfn_coexist_ok (use-before-value) AND
modfn_coexist_vbu_ok (value-before-use) both accept on cstage + are
cs/ww byte-id + run to exit 6 (bare fn and qualified module both
resolve); the dup_fn row still rejects both stages (regression). fnmatch
byte-id holds. The order-dependence is exactly what regresses silently,
so both orders are pinned.
wwstage over-rejects harec's flexible-rune-const narrow (rune lit
promotes into any int whose range fits — harec check.c:1910,
types.c promote_flexible); explicit cast until that promotion lands
in ww (#29, revert to bare '\\' then). With the enum-as fix fnmatch
is byte-identical across stages: 989 #59.14 graduates
M_WWREJECT -> M_ID, transferring 972's cstage 8/8 behavior to the
provably-identical wwstage binary — the dark-regression gate. (#29)
The value-passthrough arm gated on node shape (isenumexpr); a
constant-folded enum member reaches cgen as an int-literal node,
missed the arm, and fell into the tagged-union assertion path
(CMPQ $0 + JNE -> exit 1) — silent wrong code for every `enum as
int`, fnmatch's flag tests included. Gate on the stamped operand
type (tichase == TY_ENUM) at the cgtypeassert choke point, mirroring
cstage cgen.c N_TYPEASSERT; dead node-shape helpers deleted. Tagged
`as` assertion path byte-id-unmoved (control rows). Six @test pins
in attest_pass.ww, dual-stage. (#27b-team, cat-A)
installdecl routes all four kinds (fn/type/def/let) through installtop,
which turns scopedefineinmodule's nil return into cstage's exact
"duplicate <kind> <name>" reject, keyed (name,mod) so cross-package
same-leaf decls coexist. Builtin redecls are dropped, not dup-errored:
cstage never scopes builtins (lookup_builtin first, check.c:69), so a
user redecl is dead there — wwstage mirrors via scopesamekeysym +
no-source-decl test. -T synth __wwtests installs direct, mirroring
check.c:3079. Closes the silent dup-fn hole (user fn run vs lib/test
run built a broken test binary with no diagnostic). Per-kind reject
rows + cross-package/builtin accept byte-id rows + -T collision parity
row in 910/997. (#23-team, category-A addendum closed)
lib/test/run.ww: fork+wait4 runner; each @test runs in its own child,
abort/SEGV/FPE decoded from wait-status, failures recorded and the run
continues; exit = fail count. Tests are hermetic: module globals do not
persist test-to-test (fresh fork image; sanctioned divergence from
harec's shared-process __test_main, no setjmp/signal layer needed).
-T synth (both stages) emits a module-global (str,*fn() void) table +
return run(table) instead of straight-line calls. Driver twins bundle
lib/test under test mode and gain ww test -c/-o (go test -c) so the
byte-id gates diff the same artifact the real path builds. Gates
989/910/997 rewired onto it; new 911 pins record-and-continue across
all three fault classes; 949 +3 rows. (#17-team commit-2)
Splice @test N_FNDECLs out of the unit after the body-check passes,
mirroring harec's checked-but-not-emitted: a broken @test body still
errors loudly in non-T; @test-free units are emission-unchanged.
910/997 table rows pin keep/test x non-T/-T, head+consecutive unlink,
undef-body reject, and plain-calls-dropped loud link-fail. w6c+wwdump
combined.ww regen. (#6-team)
Lone -I/-L/-l/-o now error "ww <cmd>: -X needs an argument" (rc2),
matching selfhost main.ww. do_test rewritten to an -I-only loop that
loud-rejects -l/-L/-o/unknown instead of silently swallowing them.
949_driver_flagargs: table-driven, 10 rows, each run against both
twins asserting identical rc+stderr. (#15-team)
'ww test' gains the istest build path (-T injection in build_one/
buildone) and do_test/dotest accept -I, mirroring do_run - both twins.
The 35 converted lib tests drop their interim bare mains (-T
synthesizes the entry from @test fns and rejects a user main); their
35 C run-drivers flip 'ww run' -> 'ww test'; 989_lib_byteid compiles
lib tests under -T (8 user-main probe fixtures stay non-T, gated on
the fixture field). Abort-on-first-failure stands until the deferred
record-and-continue harness lands with the multi-package arc.
A bare 'let x: T;' with 1 <= size(T) <= 7 matched no zero-fill arm in
either stage (8B and >8B were already zeroed) - 'let c: [3]u8;' read
stack garbage. User-ruled zero-value semantics: cstage gate sz>8 ->
sz>0; wwstage zsz==8 arm hoisted above the fill-run arm (required -
8B would otherwise route into the run and diverge) and run gate
zsz>0. New 840 pin: dirty-frame probe rows, dual-dim (run + cs/ww
byte-id); discriminators fail exit-154 on pre-fix binaries.
Fused with the lib/bytes test conversion (rule 11): either half alone
turns 967 red. The old exit(signalled+10) wrapped a real 1782-count
ltrim failure to exit 0 - green depended on the garbage. Converted to
assert form (completes the 35/35 @test conversion); ltrim rows keep
the bare 'let c: [3]u8;' as the consumer proof of the fix.
bytes EXCLUDED: its green masked a real signalled corruption (filed;
conversion rides the fix). stringstest documents the per-row signalled
pinpoint loss.
signalled/fail() counters and run-loop plumbing removed; failure sites
become assert(!(cond)); table rows and @test fns 1:1. Bare mains stay
until the -T flip commit. Spec: .ai/drew-t2-conversion-spec.md.
With intermediates following the output stem, concurrent wwstage-driver
builds no longer share paths - 950/990-997 join the xargs -P group.
Measured: 202.7s -> 153.8s full-test wall (x2 runs race-clean); the
serial tail (57.7% of wall) is gone, remainder is CPU-bound. CLAUDE.md
rule 14 documents the new reality: NNN range no longer a correctness
constraint, still keys phase membership / skip set / cache set.
build_one/buildone gain an explicit objstem: 'ww build -o X' derives
main.{combined.ww,s,o} beside X; 'ww run' uses its per-pid /tmp stem;
default no--o stays next-to-source (load-bearing for the make regen of
tracked combined.ww and the freshness gate). Realizes the redirect TODO
in 995_self_rebuild.c. Kills the concurrent-test torn-read race on
selfhost/cmd/<tool>/main.* (the 991 transient). 993/995/949 pass -o
into their per-pid workdirs; 949's '-o /dev/null' relied on the old
driver ignoring -o (audited: the only live driver case). Atomic
combined write (os.rename) deferred to its own commit - lib/os lacks
rename and that addition is an import-floor regen.
The 990-997/950/989_lib_byteid gates are pure functions of (stage
binaries, tracked sources, fixtures, harness, Makefile) and eat 87% of
full-test wall (measured, .ai/testperf-baseline.md). test-commit hashes
exactly those inputs; a match with the last green full run reports the
gates as 'cached' (counted separately, never silently) and runs
everything else - 25s vs 212s on a hit, full run on any miss. A red
run never records the key; make test itself is never cached and stays
the pre-push bar (rule 14 updated). Key gap caught in review:
examples/ feeds 996_dyn_ww - included.
