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.
Every inferred-type module-global -- let n = 5; ... return n, or
let g = pt{...}; g.a -- yielded <nil> downstream in cstage: the module
N_LET pass-2 stamped d->type from the initializer but never repointed the
Sym, so later references resolved the still-unstamped Sym. The wwstage
checker already repointed correctly, so this aligns cstage UP (cstage-only;
no combined.ww / check.ww change, w6c_ww unchanged).
Mirrors the #11 [_]-array repoint. The fix is shape-agnostic (keyed on the
unstamped Sym, not the use site) -- verified across scalar/field/arg/index/
str/match/nested inferred-global shapes. Commit B of #150 (Commit A 5c37648
fixed the by-value struct-arg cgen). A pure inferred ARRAY global is now
correct in cstage but trips wwstage asserttyped -- opposite-stage, filed
#125-class. byte-id 990-997 8/8. test/wcc/823 table-driven.
