r/7176 introduced an incorrect assumption was the benefit of the
nonrecursive coercion algorithm, namely that a coercion operation always
returns a non empty string. This allows to detect whether we are
coercing a list or not by checking if the intermediate result is empty
or not. Unfortunately, coercing null and false yields an empty string,
so we need to explicitly track whether we are coercing a list.
Updated the test case to hopefully catch similar bugs in the future. I'm
not a hundred percent certain I have not introduced a new edge case with
this, so it may be interesting to add a prop test case for this to
nix_oracle down the line. At least lists are the only nested data
structures that can be serialized as nested data structures, so the
problem is kind of limited.

The default behavior of string coercion in C++ Nix is to weakly coerce
and import to store if necessary. There is a flag to make it strongly
coerce (coerceMore) and a flag that controls whether path values have
the corresponding file/directory imported into the store before
returning the (store) path as a string (copyToStore). We need to
implement our equivalent to the copyToStore (import_paths) flag for the
benefit of weak coercions that don't import into the store (dirOf,
baseNameOf, readFile, ...) and strong coercions that don't import into
the store (toString).
This makes coerce_to_string as well as CoercionKind weirder and more
versatile, but prevents us from reimplementing parts of the coercion
logic constantly as can be seen in the case of baseNameOf.
Note that it is not possible to test this properly in //tvix/eval tests
due to the lack of an appropriate EvalIO implementation being available.
Tests should be added to //tvix/glue down the line.

This commit adds Opcode::OpJumpIfCatchable, which can be inserted
ahead of most VM operations which expect a boolean on the stack, in
order to handle catchables in branching position properly.
Other than remembering to patch the jump, no other changes should be
required.
This commit also fixes b/343 by emitting this new opcode when
compiling if-then-else. There are probably other places where we
need to do the same thing.

After this commit, the only non-builtins uses of generators are:
- coerce_to_string() uses generators::request_enter_lambda()
- Thunk::force() uses generators::request_enter_lambda()
That's it! Once those two are taken care of, GenCo can become an
implementation detail of `builtins::BuiltinGen`. No more crazy
nonlocal flow control within the interpreter: if you've got a GenCo
floating around in your code it's because you're writing a builtin,
which isn't part of the core interpreter. The interpreter won't
need GenCos to talk to itself anymore.
Technically generators::request_path_import() is also used by
coerce_to_string(), but that's just because the io_handle happens to
be part of the VM. There's no recursion-depth issue there, so the
call doesn't need to go through the generator mechanism
(request_path_import() doesn't call back to the interpreter!)

This commit implements deep_force() nonrecursively, by maintaining

As an added bonus, we don't need to pass around the SharedThunkSet

This commit rewrites Value::nix_cmp_ordering() into an equivalent
nonrecursive form. Except for calls to Thunk::force(), the new form
no longer uses generators, and is async only because of the fact
that it calls Thunk::force().
I originally believed that this commit would make evaluation faster.
In fact it is slightly slower. I believe this is due to the added
vec![] allocation. I am investigating.

This is part of a fix for b/338.
We should never use PartialOrd::partial_cmp().
All Nix types except floats are obviously totally-ordered. In
addition, it turns out that because Nix treats division by zero
rather than producing a NaN, and because it does not support
"negative zero", even floats are in fact totally ordered in Nix.
Therefore, every call to PartialOrd::partial_cmp() in tvix is an
error. We have to *implement* this function, but we should never
call it on built-in types.
Moreover, nix_cmp_ordering() currently returns an Option<Ordering>.
I'm not sure what was going on there, since it's impossible for it
to return None. This commit fixes it to return simply Ordering
rather than Option<Ordering>.

This commit rewrites Thunk::force() so that it is not (directly)
self-recursive. It maintains a Vec of all the
previously-encountered thunks which point to the one it is currently
forcing, rather than recursively calling itself.
Benefits:
- Short term:
This commit saves the cost of a round-trip through the generator
machinery for the generators::request_force() which is removed by
this commit.
- Medium term:
Once a similar transformation has been applied to nix_cmp(),
nix_add(), nix_eq(), and coerce_to_string(), those four functions,
along with Thunk::force(), will make non-tail calls only to each
other. They can then be merged into a single tail-recursive
function which does not use the generator machinery at all:
enum Task { Cmp, Add, Eq, CoerceToString, Force};
fn Value::walk(task:Task, v1:Value, v2:Value) {
// ...
- Long term:
The long-term goal here is to use generators **only for builtins**
and [Marionette]-style remote control of the VM. In other words:
use `async` for things that actually involve concurrency. Calls
from the VM to builtins can then be blocking calls, because even
cppnix will overflow the stack if you make a MAX_STACK_DEPTH-deep
recursive call which passes through a builtin at every stack frame
(e.g. `{ func = builtins.sort (a: b: ... func ...) ...}`).
This way the inner "tight loop" of the interpreter doesn't pay the
costs of `async` and generators. These costs manifest in terms
of: performance, complex nonlocal control flow, and language
impediments (async Rust is a restricted subset of real Rust, and
is missing things like traits).

This fixes a *future* clippy lint:
https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#/incorrect_partial_ord_impl_on_ord_type
In essence, because the implementation of *both* Ord and PartialOrd
implies that ordering is not partial, all results of PartialOrd should
simply be those of Ord. This is to avoid subtle bugs in future
refactorings.

This fixes a subtle issue which would occasionally lead to a crash (e.g.
when evaluating (pkgs.systemd.outPath with --trace-runtime): With each
character in the string that has a multi byte representation in UTF-8,
the actual byte position and what tvix thought it was would get out of
sync. This could either lead to
* Tvix swallowing characters or jumbling characters if multi byte
characters would cause the tracked index to become out of sync with
the byte position before the first character to be escaped, or
* Tvix crashing if (in the same situation) the out of sync index would
be within a UTF-8 byte sequence.
Luckily, std's `char_indices()` iterator implements exactly what
`nix_escape_char()`'s original author had in mind with
`.chars().enumerate()`. Using `i + 1` for continuing is safe, since all
characters that need (in fact, can) to be escaped in Nix are represented
as a single byte in UTF-8.

When dealing with a formal argument in a function argument pattern that
has a default expression, there are two different things that can happen
at runtime: Either we select its value from the passed attribute
successfully or we need to use the default expression. Both of these may
be thunks and both of these may need finalisers. However, in the former
case this is taken care of elsewhere, the value will always be finalised
already if necessary. In the latter case we may need to finalise the
thunk resulting from the default expression. However, the thunk
corresponding to the expression may never end up in the local's stack
slot. Since finalisation goes by stack slot (and not constants), we need
to prevent a case where we don't fall back to the default expression,
but finalise anyways.
Previously, we worked around this by making `OpFinalise` ignore
non-thunks. Since finalisation of already evaluated thunks still
crashed, the faulty compilation of function pattern arguments could
still cause a crash.
As a new approach, we reinstate the old behavior of `OpFinalise` to
crash whenever encountering something that is either not a thunk or
doesn't need finalisation. This can also help catching (similar)
miscompilations in the future. To then prevent the crash, we need to
track whether we have fallen back or not at runtime. This is done using
an additional phantom on the stack that holds a new `FinaliseRequest`
value. When it comes to finalisation we check this value and
conditionally execute `OpFinalise` based on its value.
Resolves b/261 and b/265 (partially).

In order for the test suite we have currently to be comparable to C++
Nix, we need to display values in the same way. This was largely the
case except in some weird cases.
* <CODE> for thunks and <CYCLE> for repeated thunks (?) are already in
use. <CODE> formatting is tested by the oracle test suite already.
* Instead of lambda, we need to use <LAMBDA>
* <<primop>> and <<primop-app>> (a formatting C++ Nix uses nowhere)
now are <PRIMOP> and <PRIMOP-APP>.
We'll probably want to have a fancier display of values (in a separate
trait) down the line. This could be used for interactive usage, e.g. the
REPL or a potential debugger.
There is a peculiarity with C++ Nix 2.3 formatting primops: import is
considered a <<PRIMOP-APP>>, since it is internally implemented by means
of scopedImport. This implementation detail no longer leaks in C++ Nix
2.13 nor in Tvix.
<CYCLE> display is untested at the moment, since we exhibit a
discrepancy to C++ Nix 2.3. Our current detection is more similar to C++
Nix 2.13—luckily it is also the more consistent of the two. See also
b/245.

C++ Nix forces and typechecks the passed argument even if it is not

discovered this when I thought our formals miscompilation might be that

mapAttrs, map and genList call Nix functions provided by the caller and
store the result of applying them in a Nix data structure that does not
force all of its contents when forced itself. This means that when such
a builtin application is forced, the Nix function calls performed by the
builtin should not be forced: They may be forced later, but it is also
possible that they will never be forced, e.g. in
builtins.length (builtins.map (builtins.add 2) [ 1 2 3 ])
it is not necessary to compute a single application of builtins.add.
Since request_call_with immediately performs the function call
requested, Tvix would compute function applications unnecessarily before
this change. Because this was not followed by a request_force, the
impact of this was relatively low in Nix code (most functions return a
new thunk after being applied), but it was enough to cause a lot of
bogus builtins.trace applications when evaluating anything from
`lib.modules`. The newly added test includes many cases where Tvix
previously incorrectly applied a builtin, breaking a working expression.
To fix this we add a new helper to construct a Thunk performing a
function application at runtime from a function and argument given as
`Value`s. This mimics the compiler's compile_apply(), but does itself
not require a compiler, since the necessary Lambda can be constructed
independently.
I also looked into other builtins that call a Nix function to verify
that they don't exhibit such a problem:
- Many builtins immediately use the resulting value in a way that makes
it necessary to compute all the function calls they do as soon as
the outer builtin application is forced:
* all
* any
* filter
* groupBy
* partition
- concatMap needs to (shallowly) force the returned list for
concatenation.
- foldl' is strict in the application of `op` (I added a comment that
makes this explicit).
- genericClosure needs to (shallowly) force the resulting list and some
keys of the attribute sets inside.
Resolves b/272.

This reports the span
1. of the code within a thunk,
2. of the place where the thunk was instantiated,
3. of the place where the thunk was first forced,
4. of the place where the thunk was forced again,
when yielding an infinite recursion error, which hopefully makes it
easier to debug them.
The spans are tracked in the ThunkRepr::Blackhole variant when putting
a thunk under evaluation.
Note that we currently have some loss of span precision in the VM loop
when switching between frame types, so spans 3/4 are currently a bit
wonky. Working on it.

This is step 1 towards being able to use all 4 spans that we know when
dealing with infinite recursion. It tracks the span at which the
force of a thunk was first requested when constructing a blackhole, so
that we can highlight the spans of the first and second forces.
These are actually the least relevant spans, but the easiest to put in
place, more coming soon.

Given Rust's current lack of support for tail calls, we cannot avoid
using `async` for builtins. This is the only way to avoid
overflowing the cpu stack when we have arbitrarily deep
builtin/interpreted/builtin/interpreted/... "sandwiches"
There are only five `async fn` functions which are not builtins
(some come in multiple "flavors"):
- add_values
- resolve_with
- force, final_deep_force
- nix_eq, nix_cmp_eq
- coerce_to_string
These can be written iteratively rather than recursively (and in
fact nix_eq used to be written that way!). I volunteer to rewrite
them. If written iteratively they would no longer need to be
`async`.
There are two motivations for limiting our reliance on `async` to
only the situation (builtins) where we have no other choice:
1. Performance.
We don't really have any good measurement of the performance hit
that the Box<dyn Future>s impose on us. Right now all of our
large (nixpkgs-eval) tests are swamped by the cost of other
things (e.g. fork()ing `nix-store`) so we can't really measure
it. Builtins tend to be expensive operations anyways
(regexp-matching, sorting, etc) that are likely to already cost
more than the `async` overhead.
2. Preserving the ability to switch to `musttail` calls.
Clang/LLVM recently got `musttail` (mandatory-elimination tail
calls). Rust has refused to add this mainly because WASM doesn't
support, but WASM `tail_call` has been implemented and was
recently moved to phase 4 (standardization). It is very likely
that Rust will get tail calls sometime in the next year; if it
does, we won't need async anymore. In the meantime, I'd like to
avoid adding any further reliance on `async` in places where it
wouldn't be straightforward to replace it with a tail call.

This rewrites nix_cmp_ordering as an iterative loop, which
eliminates the extra pinned-boxing helper function.

This drops the usage of serde::Serialize, as the trait can not be used
to implement the correct semantics (function colouring!).
Instead, a manual JSON serialisation function is written which
correctly handles toString, outPath and other similar weirdnesses.
Unexpectedly, the eval-okay-tojson test from the C++ Nix test suite
now passes, too.
This fixes an issue where serialising data structures containing
derivations to JSON would fail.

This adds static strings to generator frames that describe the
generator in a human-readable fashion, which are then logged in
observers.
This makes runtime traces very precise, explaining exactly what is
being requested from where.

Instead of the two different representations (which we don't really
use much), use a `Box<str>` (which potentially shaves another 8 bytes
off `Value`).
NixString values themselves are immutable anyways (which was a
guarantee we already had with `SmolStr`), so this doesn't change
anything else.

The size of a `Vector<Value>` is 64 *bytes*, which is quite large, and
it bloated the entire Value type to this size.
This change adds an indirection for the inner vector through Rc.
Initially I tried to use a Box, but this breaks pointer equality
guarantees for the Vector when it is small enough to be inlined.
This reduces the size of Value from 64 to 32 bytes.

Warning: This is probably the biggest refactor in tvix-eval history,
so far.
This replaces all instances of trampolines and recursion during
evaluation of the VM loop with generators. A generator is an
asynchronous function that can be suspended to yield a message (in our
case, vm::generators::GeneratorRequest) and receive a
response (vm::generators::GeneratorResponsee).
The `genawaiter` crate provides an interpreter for generators that can
drive their execution and lets us move control flow between the VM and
suspended generators.
To do this, massive changes have occured basically everywhere in the
code. On a high-level:
1. The VM is now organised around a frame stack. A frame is either a
call frame (execution of Tvix bytecode) or a generator frame (a
running or suspended generator).
The VM has an outer loop that pops a frame off the frame stack, and
then enters an inner loop either driving the execution of the
bytecode or the execution of a generator.
Both types of frames have several branches that can result in the
frame re-enqueuing itself, and enqueuing some other work (in the
form of a different frame) on top of itself. The VM will eventually
resume the frame when everything "above" it has been suspended.
In this way, the VM's new frame stack takes over much of the work
that was previously achieved by recursion.
2. All methods previously taking a VM have been refactored into async
functions that instead emit/receive generator messages for
communication with the VM.
Notably, this includes *all* builtins.
This has had some other effects:
- Some test have been removed or commented out, either because they
tested code that was mostly already dead (nix_eq) or because they
now require generator scaffolding which we do not have in place for
tests (yet).
- Because generator functions are technically async (though no async
IO is involved), we lose the ability to use much of the Rust
standard library e.g. in builtins. This has led to many algorithms
being unrolled into iterative versions instead of iterator
combinations, and things like sorting had to be implemented from scratch.
- Many call sites that previously saw a `Result<..., ErrorKind>`
bubble up now only see the result value, as the error handling is
encapsulated within the generator loop.
This reduces number of places inside of builtin implementations
where error context can be attached to calls that can fail.
Currently what we gain in this tradeoff is significantly more
detailed span information (which we still need to bubble up, this
commit does not change the error display).
We'll need to do some analysis later of how useful the errors turn
out to be and potentially introduce some methods for attaching
context to a generator frame again.
This change is very difficult to do in stages, as it is very much an
"all or nothing" change that affects huge parts of the codebase. I've
tried to isolate changes that can be isolated into the parent CLs of
this one, but this change is still quite difficult to wrap one's mind
and I'm available to discuss it and explain things to any reviewer.
Fixes: b/238, b/237, b/251 and potentially others.

Adds a `Value::neo_nix_eq` method (the `neo_` prefix will be dropped
when we flip over to the generator implementation of the VM) which
implements Nix equality semantics using async, generator-based
comparisons.
Instead of tracking the "kind" of equality that is being compared (see
the pointer-equality doc) through a pair of booleans, I've introduced
an enum that explicitly lists the possible comparisons.

In order to implement an asynchronous builtins.sort (required for
moving builtins to generators), we need an `async` sorting algorithm
as our comparators involve invoking a Nix function.
This commit implements a fairly simple, optimised bubble sort as the
sorting algorithm used in our `async fn sort_by`.
There don't seem to be any crates providing async versions of things
like this, and they might actually be pretty hard to implement
generically due to some constraints about how `async` works.
Note that this algorithm is less efficient than the hybrid
"timsort/mergesort/insert sort" used in the Rust standard library. I
tried to write a merge sort implementation, but ran into isuses with
the sort becoming unstable because our comparators can not yield
equality. This is the simplest implementation which I know to be
correct.
Note that as of this commit this is *not* covered by the Tvix test
suite, but it will be as soon as the rest of the generator code lands.
