From 32698766ef05c1c5f65a2fdbb8d08c558d793dec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vincent Ambo Date: Sun, 29 Jan 2023 23:40:57 +0300 Subject: refactor(tvix/eval): statically resolve select from constant attrs When resolving a select expression (`attrs.name` or `attrs.name or default`), if the set compiles to a constant attribute set (as is most notably the case with `builtins`) we can backtrack and replace that attribute set directly with the compiled value. For something like `builtins.length`, this will directly emit an `OpConstant` that leaves the `length` builtin on the stack.
