There isn't a whole lot here, but there is additional work needed in various
places to support upcoming changes and so I want to get this commited to
ease the cognitive burden of what I have thusfar. And to stop stashing. We
have a feature flag for a reason.

This macro was previously using the path of wherever the template expanded
into, which I found to be unexpected considering that I thought the macros
were hygenic and the names bound to the environment in which they were
defined.
In any case, this solves the problem in all cases.
DEV-10863
This was forgotten in the previous commit and exists simply to ensure that
the TripIter doesn't add any significant overhead. The tests are
a handful of nanoseconds apart, on my machine.
See the documentation in this commit for more information.
This is pretty significant, in that it's been a long-standing question for
me how I'd like to join together `Result` iterators without having
unnecessarily complex APIs, and also allow for error recovery. This solves
both of those problems.
It should be noted, however, that this does not yet explicitly implement
error recovery, beyond being able to observe the failure as the result of
the provided callback function. Proper recovery will be implemented once
there's a use-case.
DEV-11006
This moves the Iterator impl and From<B> back into `quickxml`. The type of
the new reader is different, taking an iterator instead of a BufRead. This
will allow us to easily mock for unit tests, without the clustfuckery that
has ensued previously with quick-xml mocking.
DEV-10863
The original plan was to modify the existing reader to use the new
XmlXirReader, but that's going to be a lot of ongoing uncommitted work, with
both tests and implementation. The better option seems to be to reimplement
it, since so many things are changing.
This flag will be short-lived and removed as soon as the implementation is
complete.
DEV-10863
Comments re-use Text, but they are _not_ escaped, so we need to take care
with the type to ensure that, if the value were ever used with a
Token::Text, that we don't end up injecting XML.
quick_xml provides us the value escaped, so we can just handle this the same
way as Text for now.
In the future, we may want to distinguish between the two so that we can
reconstruct an identical XML document, but at the moment CData isn't used at
all in TAME sources or outputs, and so I'm not going to worry about it for
now.
DEV-10863
It's nice being able to breeze through changes, since that's been a pretty
rare thing so far, given all the foundational work that has been needed.
This should get us pretty damn close to being able to parse the `xmlo` files
for the reader linker, if we're not there already.
DEV-10863
This is quick-and-dirty; refactoring can be done later on. This is also
intended to demonstrate the ease with which additional events can be
added---the hard work is done.
This is an initial working concept for the reader which handles, so far,
just a single attribute. But extending it to completion will not be all
that much more work.
This does not have namespace support---that will be added later as part of
XIRT, which is responsible for semantic analysis. This allows XIR to stay
wonderfully simple, and won't have any impact on the writer (which expects
that QNames are unresolved and contain the namespace prefix to be written).
This is the safe version of the existing intern_utf8_unchecked, and exists
as a performance optimization.
We're about to introduce a XIR reader, which is going to intern a _lot_ of
duplicate strings, since it will intern node and attribute names as
well. Given that, we do not want to spent a lot of time performing UTF-8
checks that have already been performed.
We know that, if an intern is in the pool, it's either already UTF-8 or that
check was bypassed when it was initially interned. Therefore, if we find an
existing symbol, that can be returned without having to perform any
check. Otherwise, we intern as we usually would after attempting to convert
the byte slice into a string.
This allows us to continue to have good performance for interning without
sacrificing safety for strings.
The intent of this is to demonstrate how significant of an impact checking
byte arrays for UTF-8 validity will have, since the existing tests do not
make that clear (a static string in Rust is always valid UTF-8).
These benchmarks show that the cost when re-interning an already existing
value is +50%.
This is important, because the new reader will be interning a _lot_ of
duplicate strings, whereas the existing reader operates on byte arrays
without interning unless necessary. And, when it does, it does so
unchecked. But we'd rather not do that, since we cannot guarantee that
those XML files are valid (and not modified in some way).
Upcoming commits will have what I think is a reasonable compromise to this,
based on the fact that we'll be encountering _many_ duplicate strings in
parsing XML files.
DEV-10920
This provides a child `raw` module that exposes a SymbolId representing the
inner value of each of the static newtypes. This is needed in situations
where the type must match and the type of the static symbol is not
important.
In particular, when comparing against runtime-allocated symbols in `match`
expressions.
It is also worth noting that this commit managed to hit a bug in Rustc that
was fixed on 10/1/2021. We use nightly, and it doesn't seem that this
occurred in stable, from bug reports.

- Original issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/72476
The error was:
compiler/rustc_mir_build/src/thir/pattern/deconstruct_pat.rs:1191:22:
Unexpected type for `Single` constructor: <u32 as sym::symbol::SymbolIndexSize>::NonZero
thread 'rustc' panicked at 'Box<dyn Any>', compiler/rustc_errors/src/lib.rs:1146:9
This occurred because we were trying to use `SymbolId` as the type, which
uses a projected type as its inner value: `SymbolId<Ix: SymbolIndexSize>(Ix::NonZero)`.
This was not a problem with the static newtypes because their inner type was
simply `SymbolId<Ix>`, which is not projected.
This is one of the risks of using nightly.
But, the point is: if you receive this error, upgrade your toolchain.
Tbh, I was unaware that this was supported by tuple variants until reading
over the Rustc source code for something. (Which I had previously read, but
I must have missed it.)
This is more proper, in the sense that in a lot of cases we not only care
about how many values a tuple has, but if we explicitly match on them using
`_`, then any time we modify the number of values, it would _break_ any code
doing so. Using this method, we improve maintainability by not causing
breakages under those circumstances.
But, consequently, it's important that we use this only when we _really_
don't care and don't want to be notified by the compiler.
I did not use `..` as a prefix, even where supported, because the intent is
to append additional information to tuples. Consequently, I also used `..`
in places where no additional fields currently exist, since they may in the
future (e.g. introducing `Span` for `IdentObject`).
In particular, `name` needn't return an `Option`. `fragment` also returns a
copy, since it's just a `SymbolId`. (It really ought to be a newtype rather
than an alias, but we'll worry about that some other time.)
These changes allow us to remove some runtime panics.
DEV-10859
This moves the logic that sorts identifiers into sections into Sections
itself, and introduces XmleSections to allow for mocking for testing.
This then allows us to narrow the types significantly, eliminating some
runtime checks. The types can be narrowed further, but I'll be limiting the
work I'll be doing now; this'll be inevitably addressed as we use the ASG
for the compiler.
This also handles moving Sections tests, which was a TODO from the previous
commit.
DEV-10859
This is the appropriate place to be, now that we've begun narrowing the
types. We'll be able to do so further; this is just the first step.
This does not yet move the tests, but the code is still tested because it's
tightly coupled with `sort`. Those will move in the next commit(s).
DEV-10859
xmle sections will only ever contain an object of one type, so there is no
use in making this generic.
I think the original plan was to have this represent, generically, sections
of some object file (like ELF), but doing so would require a significant
redesign anyway, so it makes no sense. This is easier to reason about.
DEV-10859
This has always been a lowering operation, but it was not phrased in terms
of it, which made the process a bit more confusing to understand.
The implementation hasn't changed, but this is an incremental refactoring
and so exposes BaseAsg and its `graph` field temporarily.
DEV-10859
Sections, as written, are specific to xmle files.
I think the intent originally was to have this be more generic, but that
doesn't really make sense.
By explicitly coupling it with `xmle` files, that will allow us to turn this
into a proper lowering operation with its own validations that will allow
`xmle::xir` to do its job without having to validate anything itself.
This outputs enough information to be a little bit useful in the event of an
error. In the future, we'll want to provide a (likely non-Display)
implementation that provides line number and source file context with
the problem characters indicated, like Rust.
This is a significant departure from my original plans---this makes it
_easy_ to display symbol values, despite me not wanting that to occur unless
absolutely necessary.
The reality is, based on the design of the system, they will only occur in
these situations:
1. Writing to files;
2. Displaying errors;
3. Tests; or
4. People not following the design of the system.
The fourth one is the most risky as people begin to contribute in the
future, but the reality is that those can be fixed as they are encountered,
since if they're not showing up in a profiler, then they must not be causing
much of a problem.
This removes `SymbolStr` in favor of, simply, `&'static str`.
The abstraction provided no additional safety since the slice was trivially
extracted (and commonly, in practice), and was inconvenient to work with.
This is part of a process of relaxing lookups so that symbols can be
conveniently displayed in errors; rather than trying to prevent the
developer from doing something bad, we'll just rely on conventions, hope
that it doesn't happen, and if it does, address it either at that time or
when it shows up in the profiler.
The docs still need to be improved, but they can be touched as we go.
This concludes the initial development of XIR. That was much more involved
that I had originally intended, but the result is good.
DEV-10561
This generalizes it a bit and provides tests, which was always the intent;
the existing code was POC to determine if this could be done without
performance degradation (see that commit for more information).
The intent is to support the composition and decomposition of spans such
that (A, B) is as documented here. This only performs the trivial case for
the sake of providing a convenient API when the developer would otherwise
just type (S, S).
This is intended to represent the sections written to the final xmle file,
and there was unnecessary complexity in separating everything.
By reducing this IR further, we can begin to constrain its types to
eliminate some of the runtime panics and error checking we have/had in the
writer.
The new writer has reached parity of the old, with the exception of some
edge case explicit error handling that should never occur (which will be
added), and cleanup/docs.
Removing this flag now allows me to perform that cleanup without having to
worry about updating the now-old implementation.
I ran `tameld` with the new writer against our production system with
numerous programs and a significant number of test cases, and diff'd the old
and new xmle files, and everything looks good.
This is a significant milestone, in the sense that it is the culmination of
the past month or so of work to prove that an Iterator-based XIR will be
viable for the system.
This barely had any impact on the performance from the previous commit
reporting the profiling. This performs at least as well as the quick-xml
based writer. In isolated benchmarks, it performs better, but in the real
world, the linker spends most of its time reading xmlo files, and so minor
differences in writing do not have a significant overall impact.
With that said, a lot of cleanup and documentation is still needed. That is
the subject of the upcoming commits, before this writer can finalized.
