The wcc test drivers ran `ww build <bare-/tmp src>` with no -o, so the
compiler's <stem>.sepwork scratch landed beside the source and was never
cleaned: unbounded /tmp growth (2195 stale dirs observed) that fills tmpfs
and fabricates phantom test failures + silent harness aborts, and for
in-repo fixture builds leaked .sepwork into the tracked tree.
Each leaking build now writes its source + output inside a per-invocation
tmpdir, passes -o <tmpdir>/<stem> so the .sepwork lands inside it, and
rm -rf's the tmpdir on every exit path -- including fopen-fail and the
expected-fail reject builds (scratch is mkdir'd before the build can fail).
`ww run` and explicit-`-o`/byte-id helpers are left as-is; the 990/993
byte-id comparison logic is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Two items filed separately (this commit holds the no-Makefile / no-main.c
rail):
- #13: a stale <src>.s byte-id readback (749) silently no-ops since
separate-compile emits .s to <ostem>.sepwork/__root.s; documented inline.
- #14: build-system Makefile recipes build selfhost/cmd/*/main.ww with no
-o and leak main.sepwork in-tree (bounded, gitignored; own commit).
One concern -- sepwork leak hygiene -- across 228 drivers; uniform
transform applied per-file and two-round reviewed. make test: all 402
passed, zero net-new /tmp scratch, zero test-driven in-repo .sepwork.
Pre-#48 wwstage matchscrutt's N_INDEX arm required ibase.kind ==
N_IDENT; an index over any other base (match (h.xs[i]) = N_INDEX over
N_DOT, the regex fold-2a re.insts[i] shape) returned nil, so cgmatch
dispatched with scrutt=nil — every case arm's variant index clamped to
0 (CMPQ $0) and @match_spill fell to the 16B default. SILENT cs≠ww
runtime-wrong (cstage N_MATCH reads the checker-stamped s->type for
every scrutinee shape, cmd/w6c/cgen.c:7510). The non-ident-base arm now
returns the scrutinee node itself behind an istaggedtype gate — the
stamped-carrier pattern of the #67 N_DOT arm and the #45 cgtypetest
fix — so any base shape resolves the element's tagged tinfo for both
variant indices and spill sizing.
Same-class load half, one commit per the #133-expanded precedent:
cgindex's generic-fallback tagged-element load was the only arm missing
the slot>24 R8 word (both ident arms and cstage cgen.c:9106-9117 have
it), so a >24B-slot element via a non-ident base under-read the cursor
and the now-correctly-sized spill stored stale R8.
928_match_nonident_idx_run pins the repro shape (field-base slice
index, all variants both polarities), the regex shape (56B-slot
inst-like union, payload reads within the 32B cursor per #43), and
ident/array/slice ident-base controls — per row cs==ww byte-id +
runtime via both drivers. w6c/wwdump combined.ww regen'd via canonical
make; selfhost corpus hand-cmp'd cs==ww both stages.
Pre-existing siblings surfaced while probing, NOT folded (rule 11),
reported for filing: (a) cgindex element classification skips N_CALL
bases entirely (mk()[0] — wrong esz + not tagged-classified, cs≠ww,
runtime-wrong, also non-match contexts); (b) `as` on a non-ident
carrier still clamps the variant to 0 (cgtagvariantidx's N_TTAGGED node
gate rejects the stamped carrier; byte-identical to master, the #200
spill fix covered only slot sizing).
