Fold A made the CALLEE emit an over-capacity tuple return (> 4 GP or > 2
SSE eightbytes) via sret, but every receive site stayed loud-stopped, so
such a fn was not yet usefully callable. Fold B wires the call/receive end
by aligning every receive gate UP to the shared cg_sret_retsize() /
callsretsize() > 0 predicate (never a kind), per Rob's (B) ruling:
- single-var-let `let t = f();` cstage gate generalised from
TY_STRUCT&&>24 to cg_sret_retsize(lt)>0; the let's slot IS the
sret dest, the callee writes the whole tuple there, t.0/t.1 read
by offset. wwstage already keyed callsretsize (verified).
- N_ASSIGN-ident `t = f();` same generalisation; global arm
kept TY_STRUCT-only (a tuple-global has no sret-to-symbol path in
either stage). wwstage grows a tuple-local arm (rettupleof gates
it apart from the >24B-struct recv, which keeps its own path).
- destructure `let (a,b) = f();` and `a,b = f();` — the genuinely
new wiring: the callee sret's into the @sretscr discard slot, then
a copy-out loop moves each element to its binding at the SAME
packed offset the SEND wrote (foff += element size), each at its
natural width (#169); a `_` binding skips its store but advances
foff. Both stages, byte-identical.
- return-forward `return f();` cstage forward gate generalised
to the predicate, reusing cg_sret_forward verbatim. wwstage
already keyed sretretsize (verified).
The escape boundary stays loud: arg-pass `g(f())` fatals identically in
both stages (tuple arg exceeds return-cursor ABI capacity).
Test 799 is the runtime net Fold A deferred (byte-id is blind to a
SEND/RECEIVE layout mismatch): the bytes.cut-shaped ([]u8,[]u8) round-trip
over destructure / single-var-let / reassign / return-forward, each both
RUN under cstage and asserted cs==ww byte-identical. Tests 945 (row F)
and 956 (f64x3) flip from asserting the old over-cap loud-stop to
asserting the now-working sret round-trip. combined.ww amalgams (w6c +
wwdump embed the wcc cgen) regenerated. Unblocks #4 bytes.cut/rcut.
A multi-float tuple return mis-routed: SEND pushed a stale AX leaving the
float stranded in X0, while RECV (#105) read every float from X0 — so a
(f64,f64) return collided both floats. Add an SSE cursor [X0,X1] parallel to
the GP cursor [AX,DX,CX,R8], placing each element by its SysV class +
within-class index (ref/qbe/amd64/sysv.c retr), symmetric send/recv across
both stages, via a generic tuple_store/tupstore+tupsse helper that #171 will
reuse for struct-return convergence. (f64,f64,f64) = 3 SSE eightbytes exceeds
the 2-register cap and now fails loud (rule 7) rather than colliding.
Unifying the 16B and 32B whole-tuple-single-var branches onto the dual cursor
was required for f64+str coexistence; it also fixes a latent str-first
single-var bug (the old 32B branch read .ptr from DX while the send placed it
in AX). No str-first or 32B tuple exists in-tree, so integer paths stay
byte-identical (990-997 green).
resolvewalk N_MLET arm distributes the N_IDENT-callee rhs return-tuple
element types onto unannotated bindings (the A-narrow slice). Byte-id-
neutral — cgen still classifies structurally, stamps inert until the
exprfloatkind collapse. N_DOT-callee destructure deferred to #16/#17.
Prereq for the #121 collapse (commits 2/3).
Covers single-var (cglet), destructure (N_MLET), and reassign (N_MASSIGN)
receives, each with a BRANCHED callee whose f64 word is an f64 param
(single-return + float-literal masks #105 via AX bit-coincidence). 7 bug
rows: single-var (f64,i64) + deferred-read-after-X0-clobber + (i64,f64)
order-swap; destructure (f64,i64) + order-swap; reassign (f64,i64) +
order-swap. 4 controls: all-integer branched, destructure-with-no-f64,
#103 FACE-Z single-return field read, #103 FACE-X 0f64 compare. Each row
asserts cstage build+run exit AND w6c vs w6c_ww .s byte-identity. The bug
is gate-blind to byte-id alone (all three forms symmetric-wrong on
master, no .s divergence); the cstage-run check catches it. FAILs on
master 4c4006d (7 bug rows), PASSes on the fix (11/11).
