pushargsrev's five aistagged gates (N_IDENT #55, N_CALL #21, N_INDEX
#12, N_DOT #22a, deref #35) treated a tagged arg as already-tagged
when its SLOT SIZE matched the param's. A same-slot subset union
((bool|void) into (i64|bool|void), both 16B) then natural-pushed the
narrower box's words carrying SOURCE tags — no re-layout, no
cg_widen_tag_remap twin — so the callee matched the wrong arm
(silent: probes exited 10/90 where cstage exits 30/27). cstage keys
widen detection on type equality (cgen.c:10000 same = (pu == au) ||
type_eq) and routes every non-same tagged source through the zeroed
scratch + tag remap; the slot-DIFFER wwstage path already mirrored
that byte-identically, so the fix computes cstage's same check once
(wsame) and replaces each slot-size test with it. This also erases
the last known cs!=ww shape divergence (the 16B-local staging vs
direct-push frame delta on prefix subsets).
8 subsetwiden_* fixtures own the class: call-result/ident/str-payload
/mid-arg remap (the wrong-arm shapes), prefix (the shape-divergence
repro), and bigslot/return-pos/struct-24-to-32 sibling guards. Corpus
pin 1740/343/22/209/1166/3480.
taggedcallslot gated on an N_IDENT callee + fnretlookup, so every
N_DOT / wwi-decl'd cross-module callee (and every fn-pointer call)
returned 0 and its tagged call-result ARG fell off the cursor-push
path into a 16B scratch spill where cstage PUSHQes AX/DX (cstage keys
the same push on args[i]->type, cgen.c tagged_arg_size). Read the
stamped result type instead — the #209/#211 predicate-to-stamp
discipline, same class as the fn-value cgident fix.
Graduates BOTH remaining DATABYTEID_DIVERGED pins
(r700_strings_byteindex frame 80->64, r839_xmod_nominal_match frame
32->16) — the ledger is EMPTY; the byteid gate ran 1389 data fixtures
at 0 pinned-divergent. Lang rows cover the same-module control,
fn-pointer, float-member, and str-member shapes (byte-identical each).
Separate latent lead banked, NOT closed here: the tagged
subset-widening call arg ((i64|bool) passed as (i64|bool|void))
byte-diverges pre-existing — cstage stages through a 16B local,
wwstage passes direct; runtime-equivalent.
wwstage dotchainresolve gated its *T roots on an N_TPTR-over-N_TNAME
tnode; an inferred `let p = alloc(S{...})!` rides the checker-
SYNTHESIZED N_TPTR whose pointee is the struct BODY node (the #24
TNAME-normalize covers only the direct struct-lit binding), so the
root gate failed and chained p.field.pseudo reads fell to the
unfused deref arms — shape-only divergence vs cstage's type-keyed
fold (both stages runtime-correct; the historical field(SB) leak the
pin described was already fixed). Widen the local and global root
gates to accept the N_TSTRUCT pointee; correctness stays enforced by
the stamped-tinfo peel below (TY_PTR -> pointee TY_STRUCT).
Graduates alias_g73_heapfill out of DATABYTEID_DIVERGED (2 pins
remain, both the tagged-spill family); adds compile fixtures pinning
the newly-converged siblings (nested read+store, slice .cap,
inferred-global root; pin 1730/22/3460) and a runtime lang row that
mutates then re-points the heap base — a read bypassing the pointer
returns the wrong len.
Evaluate the call pre-grow into a per-site scratch, receiving by the
N_LET matrix (sret / float / odd-tail / GP), then grow, slot, sized
ladder. Both stages, byte-identical. The two reject pins graduate to
16B GP accept rows; three new fixtures cover 24B GP, 3B/4B tails,
16B float, and 40B sret.
fnptrcalleetfn's N_DOT arm required an N_IDENT base, so a.b.cb(...)
fell to the name registry with an empty module hint and emitted
CALL cb(SB) (undefined symbol; cstage calls the stamped ptr indirect).
dotbasestructinfo resolves the base chain through the struct registry
— each link a struct- or *struct-typed field — and the single-dot
path routes through the same resolver unchanged. Closes the last open
shape of the #59.8 name-keyed callee family. Fixture fnptrfield_chain;
corpus pin 1487/2974.
The last frontend-gap pin: wwstage had no Hare struct embedding
(struct { hash.hash, ... }), rejecting lib/crypto/sha256 at parse.
- parse.ww: the three member forms (named / anonymous struct / bare
dotted-ident embed), consume-then-branch since this parser has no
peek; embeds carry f.str == "" and the type in f.lhs.
- check.ww N_TSTRUCT flatten: promote the inner struct's flattened
fields at base+src.offset (check.c:961-990); the embed is one
nested-struct unit in the slot ladder; the resolved inner AST is
planted on the TFIELD rhs for cgen.
- check.ww walkers: astoffset / exprtype N_DOT / #251 struct-lit
field lookups descend embeds through shared helpers; the collision
and non-struct-embed rejects live in validatestructfields (the
once-per-decl diagnostic site).
- cgenutil.ww registerstruct: regfieldrun walks the AST against the
flattened tfield cursor, descending embeds via the planted inner
AST so promoted fieldinfo entries keep the inner field's own name
and type node.
- wwi printers unchanged (both stages already emit nameless fields).
sha256_test compiles byte-identically end to end and its 6 tests
pass; 989_lib_byteid is now 44 id / 0 divergent / 0 wwreject.
Fixtures r5913_* (promoted rw, offset shift, anonymous embed,
two-level embed + promoted fn-ptr callee, three rejects); corpus pin
1485/2970.
fnptrcalleetfn's N_DOT arm accepted only a bare N_TFN field tnode, so
a call through a field declared `cb: *fn(...)` missed, fell through to
the name registry, and emitted CALL cb(SB) — an undefined symbol
(loud at link; cstage calls the stamped ptr-to-fn indirectly). Same
TPTR peel the N_IDENT arm already had. Fixture fnptrfield_call covers
the by-value and via-pointer shapes; corpus pin 1478/2956.
The wwstage variadic call classification was name-keyed: a fn-ptr
FIELD call whose local base shadowed the current module name
(lib/log's log.println(log, args...)) picked the module fn's
signature — nfixed off by one, the fixed arg boxed into the gather,
the spread emitted as zeros — and a no-collision fn-ptr callee missed
the registry entirely, leaking the raw N_SPREAD as a single $0 word
(SIGSEGV / exit 255 in 8 of 11 logtest tests on the wwstage leg).
fnptrcalleetfn resolves a local fn-ptr callee (bare local or struct
field) to its N_TFN once, shared by the CALL-target choice,
callee_variadic_param (with the []T wrap registry params get from
installparams), calleecvariadic, and the widening param lookup, so
target and arg prep can never disagree. Graduates the #59.8 logtest
pin — DATABYTEID_DIVERGED-era M_DIVERGE count is now zero.
The wwstage nodeisstr/nodeisslice recognizers were name-keyed for
every non-local shape: an indirect fn-pointer callee ((*f)() — the
errnotest #59.5 divergence, streq receiving a shifted register file)
and module-global let/const idents (path.sepstr — union-widen pushes
zero-filled len/cap) both fell to false while cstage keys off the
checker stamp unconditionally. Both recognizers now fall back to the
stamped n.type_; push and pop sites share them, so the drain stays
balanced by construction. Graduates the #59.5 errnotest pin.
x.slicefield[:] / x.strfield[2:] emitted MOVQ $0 for the omitted hi
bound on BOTH stages (N_IDENT-gated dispatch; symmetric, so byte
identity never caught it) in all four sites: cgexpr N_SLICE + pushargs
(cstage), cgslice + pushargsrev (wwstage). The new arm re-evaluates
the pure field read for its {ptr,len,cap} header and takes .len,
covering local, viaptr, dot-chain, (*p), arr[i], and global inners.
Call inners still loud-reject upstream. Sibling of the #252/#257
array-field arms.
cgwidentaggedstorebp's struct-ident arms (local and module-global)
counted copy bytes from structinfo.totsize, the round-8 slot width, so
a struct whose natural size is not a multiple of 8 took the MOVQ word
loop and copied the source slot's dirty pad bytes over the zero-fill
the arm itself just established; the width-true tail emitter beneath
was dead code. cstage keys the same copy on su->size. Route both arms
through copysrcnatsize (the stamped-tinfo natural size, #71).
Graduates r71_tagged_return_scratch_mixed.
pushargsrev's N_SLICE arm resolved esz and the base address from the
stamped tinfo of an N_DOT [N]T-field base but let the omitted hi bound
fall to $0, so the #258 array-to-slice borrow desugar handed callees a
zero-length slice: base64 clear()'s bytes.zero(e.ibuf) was a runtime
no-op under the wwstage frontend. Take the element count from the
field's array tinfo like the cgslice #252 arm and cstage's bu->alen.
Graduates r989_libprecond_decodedsize_aligned and the 989_lib_byteid
#59.3 base64 pin.
peel-ok/sizelint-ok/primsize-ok annotations lose their tools; sites
keep the WHY in plain words. Citations of retired carriers move to
their fixture or @test successors (949_errtype_compare -> r949_*,
900_stdlib -> library owners).
The W1/W2/W5/W4b store / structlit-fill arms still resolved struct field
LAYOUT by bare-leaf name (structlookupchain / structlookup / letvarstructinfo)
inside the per-field store loop -- the write-side twin of commit-1's read fix.
Under a cross-module same-leaf collision (two modules each exporting a `pair`,
16B vs 24B) the field is stored at the wrong offset/width; an interior 2-byte
field store silently corrupted neighbours. cstage walks the resolved Type*
(never a name) and is correct; this aligns wwstage UP (ww-only change).
Convert each store loop to a tinfo-native fill. Two new helpers in cgenutil.ww:
sretretsizetn (a verbatim port of cstage cg_sret_retsize -- 4 kind-branches,
no TY_BANG, dropping the #129 module-juggling that was pure name-keying
compensation, redundant once the lookup walks resolved tinfo) and
cgstructlitfilltn (the tinfo-native twin of cgstructlitfill, recursing on
tichase(tf.type_).fields with NO name lookup at any nesting level). Supporting
twins storeopsz / tfieldlookup / cgdotfieldhardstoptn. Because the fill never
bottoms out on a name, the W4b "decisive wall" (a structlit that needed a
(sname,smod)-keyed structinfo the stamped leaf-only tinfo couldn't supply)
dissolves by construction, with no module-aware tinfo->structinfo bridge.
This CLOSES the nine in-loop nested sub-arms (N_CALL / N_STRUCTLIT / N_IDENT
field receive) by construction -- the tf walk has no name lookup. The
non-reddenable global arms (W5/W4b) are converted-for-construction: a qualified
global decl resolves its bare leaf correctly today, so byte-id (cs.s==ww.s) is
their net, not a value pin. `!T` is kind-preserving in both stages
(resolve_type / tinfofornode), so a `!struct` sret sizes as the inner struct,
never TAGGED -- the #129 drop changes no size.
Completes the 2-commit #31 arc (RULING R2 / Opt-2, .ai/ken-31-spec.md): the
#224 name-keyed receiver-layout cluster is now closed by construction. The
residual nested-field surface (the shared cgstructlitfill kept for its non-#31
callers + the cgenstmt/cgenutil let-receive/fill family) is tracked as #32.
Pins: test/wcc/797 value-asserts ptr-WRITE (W1) and val-WRITE (W2), each
reddening under independent per-arm revert; nestfill_box drives
cgstructlitfilltn's nested recursion (bootstrap-uncovered -- the corpus has no
struct-literal field store -- so the value pin is its only net).
wwstage cgen resolved struct LAYOUT by bare-leaf name (structlookup /
structparamsize) at three caller-side sites — the by-value arg push
(cgenutil), the let-receive copy width (cgenstmt), and the field-read
offset (cgenexpr). Under a cross-module same-leaf collision (two modules
each exporting a `pair`, 16B vs 24B) the name lookup first-matches the
WRONG type, so the push dropped the 2nd eightbyte, the receive over-copied,
and the field read the wrong offset. cstage type-keys off the stamped
tinfo and is correct; this aligns wwstage UP to it (ww-only change).
Route all three sites through the stamped node.type_ via a new
structabisizetn(*tinfo) accessor (push + receive) and tichase(type_).fields
(field-read, structlookupchain removed). One commit (rule-11 carve-out):
the collision drives all three at once and no per-site fixture isolates, so
it cannot bisect-split. A scoped slice of the #209/#211 name-keyed-cgen
cluster retirement; the cgdot *struct-ptr/global and let-copy siblings stay
name-keyed and are filed (#31).
New table-driven test 793_xmod_struct_argpush_collide_run (4 scenarios:
push/recv/field over 16B and 12B tails) reddens under a revert of the three
cgen files. Full make test green (336 passed); make sizelint clean.
Completes the #14 close-by-construction begun by the helper extraction (e7fefa3): every <=24B aggregate register-store now routes through cg_agg_reg_store/cgaggregstore and handles all tail sizes. B/C/D/G fix a silent both-stage drop of a 3/5/6/7-byte tail (byte-id-blind: both stages dropped identically, so the gate could not see it). A/F enable a previously loud-rejected shape (a cgen backend gap, not a type rejection; harec accepts and lowers it). G (global g=f() array) routes symmetrically, dest_padded=false. The #11 arr[i].f scratch loops fold into the helper (dest_padded=true, byte-id zero-change), completing the grep-audit. Pins value-assert each eightbyte (the class is byte-id-blind) and redden under each stage's independent revert; site H's 3/5/6/7 let-receive stays a loud fatal (#22).
cg_structlit_fill/cgstructlitfill dispatched scalar field stores as {1->MOVB, 4->MOVL, else->MOVQ} with no fsz==2 case, so a 2-byte field was stored with an 8-byte MOVQ. Interior over-stores were harmlessly overwritten by the next field, but the LAST field at the frame edge corrupted the saved base pointer: an (S|e) union success variant places the struct payload after the 8B tag, landing the last field at -4(BP), so MOVQ AX,-4(BP) wrote into saved [BP] and POPQ BP restored garbage — a silent both-stage caller-frame clobber. Route the scalar store through the existing fldstoreop/fieldstoreop helper ({1->MOVB,2->MOVW,4->MOVL,else->MOVQ}), both stages; the #13 graduation comments already pre-documented this resolution. Pure width fix, no loud-stop (scalar widths are always {1,2,4,8} and narrowing is always correct). Value-asserting pin: an i64 sentinel live across the union-maker call (detects the clobber directly) + all members, with a non-union control.
A struct/array success variant in an (S|e)! / r? unwrap dropped eightbytes on BOTH stages (byte-id blind). Two layers: (L1) the unwrap success shuffle (cgtrytaggedshift) matched no arm for a struct/array success and fell to a bare MOVQ DX,AX, materializing only w0 — widen the existing nested-TAGGED shift's gate to admit TY_STRUCT/TY_ARRAY (the in-cap union packs the payload as raw GP words past the tag, so that shift is exact); (L2) the aggregate store arms gated on rhs.kind==N_CALL and stored one word for an unwrap rhs — relax to also admit N_TRYUNW/N_TRYPROP at the three silent store shapes (arr[i]=, single-dot field, indexed-field), reusing the materialise scratch path (now #10-correct). Rule-7 LOUD-STOP for a float-bearing success variant (an SSE eightbyte cannot ride the GP {AX,DX,CX} shift, #165). The four already-loud unwrap consumers (let-receive #7, call-arg #271, assign-existing #49, resolver-field #24) stay loud; global/chained single-dot field (#16) and the sub-8-tail-through-unwrap union-maker frame clobber (#15) are separate follow-ups. Value-asserting pin, reddens under each stage's independent revert.
nodeisslice/nodeisstr lacked an N_TRYUNW/N_TRYPROP arm, so a str/slice produced by an unwrap (f()!, r!, r?) and passed as a call arg fell to the 1-word scalar push, dropping .len/.cap; cstage's type-keyed node_isslice/node_isstr already pushed 3 words. Add the type-keyed arm reading the checker-stamped success-variant n.type_, mirroring #9's N_UN/TK_STAR arm. Fixes the str case (wwstage align-up to cstage); the slice success shuffle that both stages still get wrong is fixed in the Mech B follow-up.
nodeisslice/nodeisstr lacked an N_UN(TK_STAR) arm, so a deref-source slice/str call arg (f(*h), h:*[]T) fell to the scalar single-PUSHQ default — marshalling only .ptr and dropping .len/.cap. Add the type-keyed arm (read checker-stamped n.type_, mirror cstage node_isslice/node_isstr and the sibling N_DOT/N_INDEX arms). cgen already loads the full 24B header (C1b c67f362); this fixes only the call-arg push/pop count. wwstage-only align-up; cstage was always correct.
`alloc(Outer{ x = Inner{q=10} })` dropped the nested struct-literal field:
the alloc path had its own inline fill loop with only scalar/float/str
arms, so a field whose value is itself an N_STRUCTLIT fell to the scalar
tail and stored MOVQ $0 (cgexpr leaves a whole aggregate in no register)
over the inner slot. Both stages emitted the identical wrong fill, so the
byte-id gate was blind to it.
Route alloc's fill through the existing shared structlit-fill helper (the
one the BP-relative/global/local structlit sites already use -- it handles
nested-struct recursion, N_ARRLIT, str/slice and tagged) via a new 4th
destination mode DST_PTR_SP that reloads the heap base from (SP). This
deletes alloc's divergent inline loop, the lone site lacking the recursion.
As a side effect it also fixes a latent slice-field drop in the driver's
own alloc(sepgraph{...}) (pkg.len/.cap were dropped; the consumer reads
neither -- g.n is the count SSoT). Nested-array fields are closed in-class;
a nested tuple-LITERAL field now errors loudly and symmetrically (the #49
non-addressable gap, previously dropped silently at alloc only).
Surfaced by the codegen miscompile hunt (finding C7c). Pinned by
test/lang/alloc_nested_field_test.ww (nested struct depth 1+2, nested
array, adjacent multi-nested, sibling-no-clobber; reddens on revert).
Routing preservation proven: the whole test/lang corpus is byte-identical
HEAD vs fixed except the new pin; self-compile byte-id (990-996) green.
A >32B tagged-union field (slice payload) read through a direct *struct
pointer byte-diverged: wwstage's cgloadtaggedfield always loaded R8@+24
before CX@+16, but cstage's direct-*struct-ptr arm (cgen.c ~11926) loads in
offset order CX@+16 then R8@+24. Both ran correct -- a pre-existing rule-10
asm divergence, for a local *struct ptr as well as a global one.
Thread a cxlast flag through cgloadtaggedfield: the direct-ptr site
(cgptrfieldload, the shared local+global chokepoint) passes cxlast=false to
match cstage's offset order; the other 5 callers keep cxlast=true (byte
unchanged). A global flip was rejected -- it would clobber the CX-base
callers (CX@+16 first destroys the base before the R8@+24 read), and the
chained-BX caller must stay R8-first to mirror cstage's chained twin
(cgen.c ~12021); the order is a genuine per-arm property of cstage, not
derivable from the base register.
Test: +2 rows (tagged_slice_field via global *struct ptr, _local via local
*struct ptr), runtime + byte-id; both proven to fail byte-id with only the
compiler files reverted.
wwstage's chained-N_DOT resolver (dotchainresolve) didn't resolve a global
*struct root (only local *T and global value-struct), so gp.sf.len / gp.x.y
bailed to an inner-dot load + shuffle, byte-diverging from cstage's offset-fold.
Both stages already ran correct after #15 (475c003) -- a pure rule-10 asm
divergence. cstage is untouched (the oracle); wwstage aligns up.
Resolve a global N_TPTR root, and extract emitchainbase for the viacx base-load
(byte-identical across the 5 read + 2 store sites it replaces). The chained
STORE caller declines the global-ptr root (yok=false) so it falls to cstage's
address-spine mirror -- matching the #6/#15 decline-to-resolver discipline;
local *T chained stores still fold.
Test: +2 chained rows (gp.sf.len, gp.x.q), runtime + byte-id; proven to fail
byte-id with only the compiler files reverted, pass with the fix.
Sibling follow-ups filed: #17 (>32B tagged word-order), #18 (chained read into
an i64 sink MOVSXD check).
Mirror cstage's C-variadic call handling in the ww self-host: parse a
bare `...` param (decl.ww), skip param-keyed desugar for it to avoid a
nil-deref (check.ww), and emit AL = XMM-reg count plus CVTSS2SD
promotion of f32 args in the variadic tail (cgenutil.ww, cgenexpr.ww).
Closes the cat-A wwstage silent miscompile (AL=0, unpromoted f32 tail).
Parse/check/cgen are one atomic align-up (parse alone miscompiles, so
not bisect-splittable). 989_ffivariadic now runs dual-stage (cstage ww
+ wwstage ww_ww), 12/12; w6c==w6c_ww byte-identical. Byte-id alone is
blind here (the bootstrap calls no float-bearing C variadic), so the
ww_ww runtime rows are the real net.
After the frontend consolidated into one syntax package (#74), wcc still referenced syntax symbols unqualified — residue of the old flat combined namespace, where bare refs resolved by accident. Under separate compilation Hare and Go both require the package qualifier, so those bare refs would not sep-resolve.
Qualify every wcc reference to a syntax type, function, or enum member as syntax.X across the seven syntax-importing files. Resolution-only: the resolved symbol and emitted code are unchanged, so the two combined.ww regenerate textually but all five _ww binaries hold byte-for-byte. The struct-literal sites resolve via #76. This makes w6c fully separate-compilable.
The ww compiler frontend was split across packages lex (lex+tok), ww
(ast+sym+typ), and parse — mirroring Hare's ref/hare/hare/{ast,lex,parse}.
That split's only payoff is third-party reuse, which ww has zero of: the
frontend is consumed by exactly one client, the wcc backend. The split's
cost is a wide cross-package export surface — every fn over a sibling
package's type must export it, and under separate compilation that
re-triggers check_exported_type, plus a phantom `import tok;` (tok lives
in package lex). Consolidate into ONE package lib/ww/syntax/, modelled on
Go's cmd/compile/internal/syntax. The 9 files move in (package syntax);
the intra-frontend mutual references become same-package; wcc and the
tool mains import syntax. No cstage C change (the C frontend mangles from
the source package clause). Internal data shapes (AST kinds, token model,
lexer/parser state) still mirror ref/hare/hare per rule 6/12 — only the
module decomposition collapses; the stdlib is untouched.
USER-approved (#74); spec .ai/rob-frontend-reorg.md (drew2 fidelity-
confirmed). Rule-6 carve-out documented in CLAUDE.md. Dissolves the tok
phantom import; collapses the intra-frontend export sprawl. Byte-id
rebaseline (lex.X/parse.X/ww.X -> syntax.X); cs==ww held. The residual
syntax->wcc export surface (10 types) + the unqualified-ref question are
separate follow-ups (#72/#75).
Switch symbol mangling from the import leaf clause to the full dotted import path for directory packages; single-file imports keep package-clause mangling (isdir-gate: imported<=>directory-import). The root build unit's fn main stays bare, every other top-level decl mangles, closing #31's duplicate-main hazard by construction (#32). Both stages, byte-identical.
Single commit, not split: the bare rename (f244af3) is red on its own because it unmasks cross-module resolution gaps that do not reproduce pre-M1, so the fixes are intrinsic to making the rename correct. Included: wwstage fnret/fnparamslookupmod map import alias->path (#199b cross-module union-variant scrutinee resolved the wrong fn's union); cstage use_path prefers the referencing module's import for an ambiguous leaf alias (sha256 crypto.math vs strconv math). Tests table-driven: 989_m1mangle_run/_sym, 989_m1union_run (gate-visible per-arm exit codes + cs==ww byte-id).
wwstage's slotsize() shared its TY_STRUCT arm with TUPLE/ARRAY and
returned ti.slotsize — the SUM of the slot-padded field widths. For a
struct LOCAL that over-reserves the frame slot whenever a field is a
sub-8 nested composite: a nested inner{x:u8,y:u8} (size 2, slotsize 8)
pads its in-struct footprint, and the local inherits that pad. cstage
has no slotsize SSoT — it reserves the local at f->type->size, the
checker's NATURAL r.size (cmd/w6c/cgen.c). So on outer{a:u8,
p:inner{x:u8,y:u8}, z:i64} wwstage emitted frame $32 / struct-base
-24(BP) while cstage emitted $16 / -16(BP): a uniform -8 BP shift on
every field access. Both stages exit 0 (each self-consistent), so it is
runtime-invisible — but it is a cs!=ww .s divergence (rule 10) and a
latent byte-id gate-landmine the day such a struct enters the corpus.
Same dual-SSoT leak as #44 (field-OFFSET) / #55, one notion over:
struct-local-slot-SIZE.
Fix: split the TY_STRUCT arm out and return round8(ti.size). The TUPLE
arm (8B/elem slot, user ruling #60) and the ARRAY arm (element stride,
#48 [N]Alias 24B) keep ti.slotsize — those are deliberate, ruled
divergences and are untouched. The struct-local slot consumers
(cgendecl.ww letslotsize via cglet, cgenstmt.ww) all flow through this
arm; si.totsize (registerstruct → structabisize / global-emit) is a
separate consumer and is not this path.
CLASS-N corpus-neutral: every corpus struct local is 8-aligned, so
round8(ti.size) == slotsize for all of them and the w6c_ww/wwdump_ww
emission does not move (994 byte-id on 18 corpus inputs + 995 5-tool
self-rebuild both green post-fix). 989_structlocal_frame is the
FRAME-ABSOLUTE proof (w6c vs w6c_ww .s byte-diff; nested3 + tail_u32 +
flat control) — the .s twin of the runtime 989_nestfield_run, which
deliberately does not gate the frame and points here for it.
wwstage carried TWO struct-layout sources. registerstruct (cgenutil.ww)
recomputed each field's `fi.foff` via fieldsize — slot-padded, round-8 —
for the WRITE (construction / field store) path, while the READ path
(cgplaceaddr / dotbaseaddr) used the checker's natural `tfield.offset`.
They diverged iff a struct had a nested sub-8 composite field
(slotsize != size) plus a successor: ww wrote the successor at the
slot-padded offset and read it at the natural offset, mis-addressing its
own field. cstage has no structinfo and reads tfield directly, self-
consistently natural (cmd/w6c/cgen.c).
Fix: make `fi.foff` a VIEW of the checker's already-built natural layout.
Lock-step walk tstruct.list (AST N_TFIELD) and ti.fields (tfield) — both
head-first declared order, both skip non-TFIELD identically — and copy
foff = tf.offset, fsz = tf.type_.size. si.totsize keeps the slot-padded
stack-slot number (ti.slotsize, already 8-rounded at check.ww:2259).
fieldsize is no longer called here (its `*p OP=` scalar-width caller is
untouched). LOUD nil-guards on tstruct.type_ / tichase / a tfield walk
desync — all unreachable post-check, never silent. fi.tnode stays the
AST node (its node-keyed readers need it); repointing the ~60 fi.foff
readers to tfield is the out-of-scope (ii-b) follow-up.
This unifies ww's second source onto the value cstage already emits, so
cs==ww is preserved, not newly created (wwstage-cgen only; no cstage
edit). The shape is corpus-absent — ww uses both sources on its own
structs, so a divergent struct would have broken the bootstrap — hence
gate-blind; 989_nestfield_run is the proof (nested inner{x:u8,y:u8} in
outer{a:u8,p:inner[,z:i64]}, every field read back == written, dual-stage
cs==ww). It also makes 681 ragged_tail_12B genuinely correct: the
predecessor #71 already shrank the whole-struct copy to the source's
natural length, so packing mark at natural offset 12 no longer clobbers.
Passing buf[1:] of a [MAX]u8 as a call arg dropped the default-hi
length (the arg-push N_SLICE arms' fallback covered only named-alias
bases). Same type-table resolve at pushargsrev local+global. This
closes the def-dim dimension family by construction: every N_INTLIT-
keyed dim consumer (cgslice, cgdot, letemitsize, arg-push) now
carries the tichase().alen fallback — grep-proven, no consumer
remains. Fourth member surfaced by the family grep.
Widening a runtime f64 into a tagged slot pushed a stale AX as the
payload while the value sat in X0 — both stages shared the push bug
(float literals dodged it because TK_FLOAT loads AX too); the
divergent pop sides then produced different garbage. Spill the
payload from X0 (MOVSD) with the variant tag. Review item #49.
Both stages move in one commit: one emission contract; splitting
would leave the byte-id gates red between the halves.
The arg-drain loop checked node_isfloat before popping a widened
arg's GP words, so a float arg adjacent to a widened (tagged) arg
read the wrong stack slot: the f64 took the widened payload (#30), or
the float arm ate the tag word into X0 and the payload landed in DI
as the tag (#48). One missing branch, two manifestations — mirror
cstage's widen-first pop (cgen.c:9650-9665). Review items #30+#48
(fold reviewer-verified one-mechanism against the cstage twin).
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.
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.
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).
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).
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.
A widening sub-union cast (return/let `v: inner` into a union whose member
is the nested `inner`) skipped the nested widen arm and emitted tag=0 (a
2nd-variant value returned the wrong payload). cstage loud-stops #35;
wwstage now matches: cgwidentaggedstorebp louds on the subset cast, and
cgreturn routes genuine-widening tagged returns (rhs TY_TAGGED, ru1!=fu1)
through the widener choke-point so the same loud fires. Same-type returns
stay on the proven passthrough. Faithful inner-tag->outer-index remap
deferred. test/wcc/835 S1 row.
An empty zero-length array diverged cs!=ww in asm (both ran correct=7):
a [0]int global emitted a spurious DATAW main.X(SB),"", and a [0]int local
reserved a $16 frame slot. cstage emits neither. wwstage-only, byte-id-only.
The global DATAW emit is now gated on sz > 0 (skips the empty array).
The local frame: localreserve dropped its sub-8 floor (if asz<8 asz=8) to
mirror cstage's localslot formula (frame+sz+7)&~7 -- but that floor was
MASKING slotsize(TY_VOID)=0 (a void local), which cstage defaults to 8B;
removing the floor alone collided the zero-size void slot with a spilled
param (a real miscompile -- 1132 self-compile hunks). So letslotsize now
returns 8 for a void local, while empty-struct / [0]-array stay genuine 0.
The frame formula is byte-id-neutral for every sz>=1 local (round8 already
>= 8); only true zero-size cases change.
cstage unchanged (w6c md5 unchanged). byte-id 990-997 8/8 (the full
self-compile is what caught the void-local class); test/wcc/820 un-carves
the #9 empty-[0] byte-id exclusion + adds void-local/local-[0] rows.
A let-global slice or str passed by value as an argument was silently
field-dropped by wwstage: pushargsrev's global branch had only the #150-A
struct arm, and wwstage's nodeisslice/nodeisstr are local-keyed (false for
a global), so a global slice/str ident fell to the scalar single-PUSHQ,
pushing one of the three header words {ptr,len,cap} -> the callee read
garbage for .len/.cap. cstage was already correct.
wwstage-only, caller-side only (slice/str params already received
correctly). A global slice/str arm in pushargsrev, type-keyed on
tichase(arg.type_).kind, with two arms byte-matching cstage's two distinct
sequences -- str via cgslicehdr (CX-base, cgen.c:1866), slice per-word
(BX-base, cgen.c:9124). Gate is isletvar-only (a def has no name(SB)
holder; cstage const-folds it -- def-str/slice-by-value is the residual
task #21). cstage unchanged (w6c md5 unchanged); byte-id 990-997 8/8,
no lib pin flips. test/wcc/829 table-driven, byte-id per type.
Passing a module-global struct by value -- let g: pt = pt{...}; take(g)
-- was silently miscompiled, mirror-opposite on the two stages. cstage's
by-value struct-arg arm hit localfind(g)->0 and read 2 words from the
frame (MOVQ (BP)), never main.g(SB) -> returned garbage. wwstage used the
correct main.g(SB) base but fell through to the scalar single-PUSHQ
default, pushing one word for a 2-word struct -> dropped a field.
Both stages now take the off==0 global branch: LEAQ main.NAME(SB) and copy
all struct-size/8 eightbytes (reusing the GAP-A.ptr/#231 global-base
predicate), converging to one byte-identical sequence. The local path
(off!=0) is unchanged; >16B aggregates (#271) already resolved globals.
Commit A of the cluster; the cstage-only inferred-global-type Sym-repoint
(every let g = ... module-global yields <nil> downstream) is Commit B
(#18). Slice/str global-by-value args have the same wwstage field-drop --
filed (#10 G-valglobal-arg; struct closed here). byte-id 990-997 8/8.
test/wcc/822 table-driven, byte-id per stage.
A tuple LITERAL with a declared-tagged element reached the cursor-fill
helper (cg_tuple_lit_to_cursor) through the generic cgexpr(N_TUPLE) arm
with no declared type, so the element was stored stamped-keyed at its
constructed scalar width rather than widened into the declared tagged box.
Both consumers ran silent and wrong on both stages (#263 gate-blind:
cs==ww byte-identical, both wrong — runtime is the only net).
#64 massign: N_MASSIGN derives a declared tuple type from the lvalue
binding types and threads it into cg_tuple_lit_to_cursor + the receive
loop (mirror of the #57 N_LET wire); a `_` target falls back to the rhs
literal element type for cursor stride.
#68 call-arg: the send is made param-aware (fill over the PARAM tuple) and
the restage guard graduates a declared-tagged element to a real widen
(reusing cg_widen_tagged_store); nested tuple/struct/array elements and
tagged elements with no param decl stay rule-7 loud. The matching
pop/drain is made param-aware too so push count == pop count: a
param-aware send pushes the box's N words, so the drain must pop N or the
SysV arg sequence skews. This is a push/pop balance requirement of the
send change, not a separate latent under-drain (the standalone trailing-
arg drain is already correct at HEAD).
Closed by construction: the only remaining cg_tuple_lit_to_cursor caller
passing NULL/nil is the generic cgexpr(N_TUPLE) arm, provably non-widening
(constructed type == governing type). The four widening consumers — LET,
RETURN, MASSIGN, call-arg — are all decl-wired. Whole-tuple single-ident
reassign from a tuple literal is rule-7 loud (task #49), not a silent
widening consumer, so the residual NULL arm stays non-widening.
Pin: 945_tuple_lit_declblind_run — massign / call-arg / `_`-control /
call-arg-drain / nested-tuple-ERR rows, each base-fail at abd97e6 and
post-pass with cs==ww byte-id.
io.empty (discard+EOF stream, ref/hare/io/empty.ha:4-17) — needed by getopt's
two-pass printusage width measurement. Diverges from Hare's `const empty: *stream`:
a `let _empty_vt` + `fn empty()` that wires the fn-ptr slots per call, because
const-init of a vtable struct with fn-ptr fields is blocked (#118, ruled accept).
Co-discovered while making empty() byte-identical across stages: three
wwstage-only cgen fixes (cstage was already correct; wwstage aligned down):
- #129 sretretsize: consult the same-module pointer-alias before structlookup's
any-module struct fallback (io.stream = *vtable was mis-sized as memio's 56B
struct -> spurious sret save).
- #129 callsretsize: swap curmod to the callee's module before sret-size
classification (cross-module callee context).
- #130 cgassign global-struct tagged-union field store: add the missing arm
(was a 1-word store) mirroring cstage cgen.c:4893-4912.
The three are inseparable from io.empty here — splitting them out leaves a
divergent-asm intermediate (993/995 red), so they ride one commit per the
one-class gate-repair carve-out (#133-expanded precedent). Regenerates the
embedded combined.ww; 989_lib_byteid pins bufio + fmt graduated to M_ID.
(cgenexpr.ww fix-3 inline comment cites the #129 cluster; narrow to #130 on
next touch to avoid a regen for a comment.)
cg_widen_tagged_store only handled a tuple LITERAL (N_TUPLE / cast-of-
N_TUPLE) widened into a tagged box; any addressable non-literal tuple
source -- IDENT var, INDEX tbl[i], DEREF *p -- hit the `else fatal`
("tuple-typed source shape unwired"). Both stages loud-identical
(honest, no silent miscompile). This blocked indexing a const tuple
table into a union (regex charclass_map[i] -> charset union).
Add an addressable-tuple-source arm, both stages (cgen.c +
cgenutil.ww twin). It resolves the source address via the cgplaceaddr
place-spine (covering ident/index/deref -- one mechanism, so the trio
is family-closed) and block-copies the tuple's type-table ->size bytes
into the box payload (after the 8B tag), then stamps the variant tag.
No re-slotting: a tuple's in-memory layout uses the same eslot strides
(str=24B header, *fn=8B, ...) as the box payload the literal loop
fills, so source-layout == dest-layout. The existing narrow-pack and
tag-unresolved guards stay as the honest boundary; CALL/sret tuple
sources (different receive, #68-kin) stay loud.
align-BOTH: both stages were loud (no runtime reference), and byte-id
is structurally blind to an identical-wrong emission -- so correctness
is proven by a RUNTIME read-back pin (944_nonlit_tuple_widen_run, per
shape: match-extract + assert str header + call the fn-ptr elem with
distinct fns so a stale pointer is caught). 936's old reject row
graduates to a run row. Both stages byte-identical (990-997 green).
A tuple containing a tagged-union element, used as a union member
(e.g. ((void|size),(void|size),size) | error), loud-stopped in the
cgen return-store: the tuple-in-union store walk had scalar/float/
str/slice element arms but no TY_TAGGED-element arm. A PLAIN
tuple-in-union already worked -- the blocker was the tagged element.
Add the recursive two-level widen arm at both stages
(cg_widen_tagged_store / cgwidentaggedstorebp): for each tagged
element, re-enter the tagged-box store (inner tag@slot+0,
payload@slot+8) at the element's tuple-payload offset, then stamp the
outer tuple tag. Slot strides come from the type table
(roundup8(eu->size)) -- the checker already sizes the shape correctly
(tuple->size measured 40, union box 48; check.c:715-720). The
recursion descends a finite type tree (a tagged element is never a
tuple literal, so it can't re-enter the tuple arm); unsupported
deeper nesting still louds via the existing size/tag guards.
Both stages get the same arm -> byte-id (990-997 green; additive,
bootstrap-neutral). cstage runs the full b1c shape
(construct+return+match-extract) as the runtime reference; wwstage's
store rides on byte-id until gap-B. gap-B (wwstage checker
match-acceptance of the tuple-with-tagged case pattern) is a separate
commit -- wwstage still louds the match honestly at the checker.
Pin 944_tuple_tagged_union_run.
