The dead-session sweep and the remove-on-close half are dropped: the sweep contradicts the recorded non-goals, and the other lane owns removal on a clean close. The Evil keys are defined per state from the map's own bindings, so special-mode-map's h, SPC, < and - no longer shadow Evil's.
Every daemon left about 8MB in $TMPDIR/flan-dev-<pid>. A test_dev run left 300MB, and a few concurrent runs filled the tmpfs /tmp, after which every daemon died on its link before binding. The half-write test's abort also goes through [aborted] now, since an abort that worked can arrive as the socket closing.
x86 built a settling right-hand side straight into its destination, so (set p (P {.a (.b p) .b (.a p)})) wrote .a and read it back for .b. assign now also asks whether the value reads storage the destination lies in, and goes through the temporary when it does. The global-initialiser entry was already closed by startup_plan's Set; the unrooted-temporary entry turns out to be a both-backends rooting gap and stays open for a decision.
FIX.org, NEXT.md, DISCUSS.org, docs/DISCUSS.md and the session handoff at the
root are one TODO.org now: 293 entries under seven subsystem headings, each
carrying an org keyword that says where it stands. A DONE entry is a few lines
saying what was decided and what that rules out; the reasoning that would not
compress — the embedding spike and the four reports the hand-written x86
backend was built from — moved into docs/BUILT.md instead, and its entries
point there in one line.
Every entry was checked against the tree before it got a keyword, and the
prose was wrong in both directions. Things the deleted files called open were
built: the first-evaluation stall, main being redefinable, macro parameter
lists, the type-limit constants, the array constructors, the byte fills,
inc/dec, the discard's fontification, the Emacs buffers, rt_die's _exit, the
backtrace surface, and the acceptance failure that could print and still exit
zero. Things they called done were not: the backend reports' no-plan buckets
had gone stale in the other direction, the value-dependent defvar was
superseded rather than built, and macro-expansion source locations are on an
unmerged lane, so that entry is NEXT and names the branch.
Every comment that cited one of the five by name now cites a heading that
exists, in TODO.org or in docs/BUILT.md. The session reports under
docs/handoffs/ keep naming the files they worked on, because rewriting them
would falsify what those sessions did; each carries a note saying where the
content went.
Three from a review of the commit before this one, and the first is a dev
loop defect. Naming the widening thunk thick/<count so far> put traversal
order into a symbol, and Session.compatible compares a reload's functions
against the running program's by name -- so swapping two calls in a body
renamed nothing the programmer can see and reported "thick/0 changes
signature, from [i32] i32 to [i64] i64. Restart to change it." The name is
the signature again, written by thick_enc: every type self-delimiting, an
atom as its length and then its spelling, so the boundaries mangle_ty loses
are in the string rather than inferred from the separators. mangle_ty is
untouched -- it is load-bearing for the instantiation names a backtrace, a
Reach edge and a dev cell show -- and the memo stays keyed on the types.
fn-thunk-reload.flan is the pair of widenings and test_session reorders them.
The second was a silent miscompile. bind_ty's Fn-pattern-against-CFn-argument
arm was structural, so it matched nested function positions too, and the
catch-up pass that builds the thunk compares the whole substituted parameter
list -- false when the mismatch is inside one, and the fallthrough handed the
argument over unchanged: one word where the instance declares two, 255 on
both backends with nothing said anywhere. The widening is a value the caller
builds around the whole argument and there is nowhere inside one to build it,
so the arm is admitted at the top of an argument's type and nowhere else, and
the catch-up arm is total over the pair rather than guarded -- bind_ty's
fallthrough is Types.fits, which admits Never, so a binding can still succeed
over a pair the two words cannot bridge. fn-generic-nested.flan is the
parameter position and fn-generic-nested-return.flan the return one.
And the third closes the hole the escaping inversion was for. A match arm
binds the case's fields to slots and the store that fills them is inside the
branch, not in any form escape_check reads as a binding, so (match o (Some f)
f ...) handed back through a name what a case-field read cannot hand back at
all -- sound only because Some_ denies suspects. An arm's slots of function
type are suspect now, for the same reason the read itself is.
Review found it, and it is a silent miscompile on both backends rather
than a refusal anywhere. mangle_ty flattens a whole signature into one
hyphen-joined string, so (CFn [(Ptr i32)] i32) and (CFn [ptr i32] i32) --
the second over a struct someone called ptr -- flatten alike; keyed on
that, the second widening reused the first's thunk at the wrong arity.
The key is the types now, compared with Types.equal, and the symbol is a
counter over the thunks already minted, so nothing is derived from a
spelling. fn-thunk-share.flan is the pair, and it prints 5 and 17.
And a regression beside it: a generic whose function parameter binds the
type variable. (defn apply2 [f (Fn [$t] $t) x $t] ...) called as
(apply2 bump 1) compiled before this lane and stopped, because bind_ty
had no arm admitting a CFn argument at an Fn pattern -- and once it had
one, the call still handed one word to an instance declaring two, because
a parameter that still mentions a variable is checked with no expectation
and expect never sees the pair. Both halves: the arm, and the widening
in generic_call's catch-up pass beside the numeric one. The same gap hid
new functionality -- a CFn argument at a (CFn [$t] $t) parameter had no
arm either -- and mentions had no CFn case, so bound_exactly answered
wrong for a variable living only inside one.
The corpus missed all of it because the prelude binds $t from an earlier
argument, so the parameter is concrete before bind_ty sees it.
While here: escaping's enumeration is the *clean* set now rather than the
suspect set. It had a hole where a list like that cannot -- an (at s 0)
over a slice of Fn read as clean while the Vec, struct and pointer
spellings were refused. Unreachable today, and the header claims the
list is closed. The same inversion fixes which refusal message an index
read gets.
Three minors: Anull was defined and never constructed; the capture-dyn
message substituted a descriptor into a noun slot; and session.ml
rendered a defn's changed signature as (Fn [...] ...), which is now a
real type and not the same as (CFn [...] ...) -- it writes the parameters
and the return the way a defn writes them.
And one rounding corrected in the docs: handler-bind is not free for a
program that captures nothing. %handler grew from 24 bytes to 32, every
push writes a null into the new field, every clause gains ptr %env with
an alloca and a store, and flan_signal passes one more argument per
dispatch -- twenty changed x86 lines on loops.flan. Small, real, and
paid by every conditions program.
