Make the schema-1 transcription mechanically consistent before the protocol freeze: restore compiler-protocol identity, use the typed native-contract record identity, distinguish encoding and path classes, and close the package artifact kinds. These corrections must land together because one exhaustive IDL cannot encode the prior conflicting rules.
Three same-cluster robustness holes. enumeratedir treated a failed
getdents64 (r<0) as EOF: a mid-walk error silently truncated the
package source list, and a first-read error was misdiagnosed as
"directory contains no WW package sources" -- it now routes the
caller's "cannot read directory" arm. run_test_bin's waitpid had no
EINTR retry and its return was unchecked, so an interrupted wait
left status==0 and reported a false test PASS (the do_run twin
already retried). The coordinator's pkgskipspace now also skips
/* */ before the package clause like the driver's sep_skip_space --
a source opening with a block comment built under ww but failed
coordinator discovery.
The TODO(#11) silent-accept of `for (let (a, a) .. xs)` rested on a
stale premise -- resolvewalk has per-block scopes since #53 and IS
the live w6c_ww checker pass. Bindings now install in a per-LOOP
scope (the N_MCASE pattern), so a duplicate name within one pattern
errs "redeclared in same scope" (cstage parity via stamptuplebinds'
scopedefine-nil check) while sequential same-name loops stay legal.
kwtab restores its stated alphabetical order (`import` before `is`,
both stages, kinds swapped in lockstep with names).
Four seams from one review cluster, all landing on the same checker
files; gates ran on the union (rule 11 body).
?-subset: the wwstage walk compared `...spread` ALIAS nodes on both
sides of the error-subset check, falsely rejecting a spread-carried
error return (`(i64 | ...errs)`, cs-accept/ww-reject) — both sides
now flatten like trycountvariants (cstage Tparams are pre-flattened
at type level).
Multi-let/multi-assign: the tuple gates keyed on the RAW rhs kind,
rejecting a NAMED tuple alias (`type pair = (i64,i64)`; cs clean-
reject, ww asserttyped stop) — both stages chase per #99 alias
transparency, wwstage rettupleof peels the alias so cgmassign keeps
the str element's len/cap stores, and the catA massign-alias error
pin re-rules to a run fixture. The N_MLET diagnostic also printed
its operands swapped (elem/declared reversed vs its wording).
Yield: match_yield_type didn't descend into N_SWITCH, so a yield
inside a switch arm typed the match void and dropped the value
(both stages); and a stray yield outside any match arm reached cgen
unchecked — both stages now gate on a match-arm counter (the
c->loops discipline).
cstage rejects `add(1,2,3)` and `add(4)` (too many / not enough
arguments); wwstage ran no count check at this seam, so both built
-- a stray arg pushed silently, a missing one read garbage
(cs-reject/ww-accept build-verdict divergence). Surplus errs when
params exhaust with args left; missing errs on a leftover regular
param (a leftover TK_ELLIPSIS or FFI "..." is a legal zero-arg
variadic tail). fn-VALUE callees still bail at decl==nil -- their
whole typecheck, arity included, stays task #51.
Two composing defects made a two-enum union mis-tag in wwstage
(live cs!=ww: `let e: (color|shape) = shape.BALL` stored tag 0 —
the color arm — while cstage stored 1). type_eq/typeeq had no
TY_ENUM arm, so ANY two enums fell into the primitive default and
compared equal; enums are nominal (harec: an enum IS its alias
type) and now compare by node identity only. Underneath, the
wwstage post-order revisit re-stamped the constant-folded enum
member (an N_INTLIT) as untyped_int, clobbering the enum stamp the
N_DOT fold applied, so the widen matcher fell to its first-variant
fallback -- the #59.9 N_BIN guard now twins on N_INTLIT (cstage
cexpr is single-pass and never clobbered).
Two parse.c operand defects. A bare `-8` (no $) double-negated to
+8: a_parsenum lets strtoll consume the sign, and the caller's
`off * sign` re-applied it (the D_INDIR arm never multiplied, which
is why -8(BP) always worked); the wwstage twin was already correct,
so this was a latent cs!=ww on hand-written source. The name(REG)
non-SB arm faked a D_INDIR off an UNCHECKED reg_lookup and silently
discarded the parsed ident and +disp -- both stages; the shape has
no encoding and now rejects loud.
The archive walk skipped every member whose header name starts
with '/', which also dropped GNU long-name members (/N) -- any
member with a >15-char filename silently never linked. Only '/ '
(symbol index) and '//' (long-name table) are non-objects; /N
members index by content (names are never consulted). A member
that fails loadimage in the selective pull also stayed silently
unlinked with rc=0; it now reports and fails the link (rule 7).
wwstage w6l diagnostics ride the same .len idiom as the w6a sweep.
Every interned symbol -- including branch labels defined via
p.label -- was emitted STB_GLOBAL, so labels were collide-able
across objects and the header's "GLOBAL symbols only" contract was
enforced nowhere (asym.isglobal was set but never read). Labels
stay interned for fixup resolution; the symtab now carries only
exported definitions, undefined externs, and reloc-referenced syms
(a reloc pre-pass marks those). rt/ensure.o drops from 15 emitted
syms to 2. Bootstrap 991-995 hold byte-identical on the new format.
Three w6a defects, one component. MOVB with an SP/BP/SI/DI register
operand encoded AH/CH/DH/BH -- emit_rex suppressed the bare 0x40
that selects SPL/BPL/SIL/DIL (the comment claimed "we always emit
REX"; encode probe: `MOVB SI,(AX)` -> `88 30` = %dh). emit_rex8
forces the byte for low-byte codes 4-7; no current w6c output emits
those shapes, so all existing objects are unchanged. LEAQ and CALL
unsupported operand shapes fell through with zero bytes and no
errs++ (every MOV arm reports); both now err. Every hardcoded
os.write diagnostic length in the wwstage was one byte short
(truncating the newline/quote); all converted to the .len idiom so
the length cannot drift again.
Two silent seams in one sweep. The for-range destructure silently
dropped the 9th+ binding in both stages (bind arrays are sized 8);
the cap now hard-stops per the DEFER_MAX/LOOP_MAX discipline (the
shape is unreachable today -- every wide-tuple construction path
already loud-stops). argtaggedwidensz, the drain-side SSoT for
widened call args, still keyed "natural push" on slot-size equality
while pushargsrev flipped to type equality with #55 -- a same-slot
subset was classified widen by push, natural by drain (counts
coincide today; a classification reader desyncs, the #48 shape).
Both sides now share the wsame key; the widen-branch tag miss for a
concrete source joins the task-2 loud-stop family (tagged subset
sources keep t=0 -- their widentag is never read, the scratch store
remaps).
Lead 17 (enum fold-failure prev+1) DISPROVED: enumvalfold gates
every member init in the checker and its fold set is op-for-op
equal to cgen's enumevalmember, so the fallback only runs inside
already-failing compiles.
cgstructlitfill's `...` total read only an N_INTLIT dim node, so a
def-dimensioned [N]T struct field under-filled: elements 1..N-1 kept
the zero-fill, silently, wwstage only (cstage and the tn twin read
the stamped array length). Read tichase(fi.tnode.type_).alen first;
the surface node stays as the fallback for unstamped shapes.
Hare's rule (harec check.c binarithm): % and the bitwise/shift five
are integer-only; + - * / need numeric operands. ww grouped % with
the numeric ops, and compound assigns never op-checked at all, so
`a % b` on floats compiled half-lowered (live cs!=ww divergence),
`a %= 2.0` plain-stored the rhs (op silently dropped, both stages),
and `s += "cd"` garbled str headers. Gate both at the checker, both
stages; the cgen float-compound fallbacks and the three unknown-
compound legacy defaults (deref/global/local) demote to rule-7 hard
stops. 34 compound-on-tagged/str/slice fixtures re-pin from the old
cgen "not wired" stops to the earlier checker diagnostics; 3 new
reject fixtures pin the closed shapes.
cgdot's local-ident arm silently emitted nothing for a receiver
whose local record carries no type node (inference miss upstream),
leaving the consumer reading stale AX. cgident's tail silently
emitted nothing for any ident that resolved to no local/fn/def/let;
that silence is load-bearing ONLY for the #140 !void error-singleton
value (tag-only, the widen arm stamps the tag) -- keep exactly that
case, mirroring the cstage #140 guard, and hard-stop the rest.
