  27 -- Semantic Analysis: General Model --
  28 --------------------------------------
  29 
  30 --  Semantic processing involves 3 phases which are highly intertwined
  31 --  (i.e. mutually recursive):
  32 
  33 --    Analysis     implements the bulk of semantic analysis such as
  34 --                 name analysis and type resolution for declarations,
  35 --                 instructions and expressions.  The main routine
  36 --                 driving this process is procedure Analyze given below.
  37 --                 This analysis phase is really a bottom up pass that is
  38 --                 achieved during the recursive traversal performed by the
  39 --                 Analyze_... procedures implemented in the sem_* packages.
  40 --                 For expressions this phase determines unambiguous types
  41 --                 and collects sets of possible types where the
  42 --                 interpretation is potentially ambiguous.
  43 
  44 --    Resolution   is carried out only for expressions to finish type
  45 --                 resolution that was initiated but not necessarily
  46 --                 completed during analysis (because of overloading
  47 --                 ambiguities). Specifically, after completing the bottom
  48 --                 up pass carried out during analysis for expressions, the
  49 --                 Resolve routine (see the spec of sem_res for more info)
  50 --                 is called to perform a top down resolution with
  51 --                 recursive calls to itself to resolve operands.
  52 
  53 --    Expansion    if we are not generating code this phase is a no-op.
  54 --                 otherwise this phase expands, i.e. transforms, original
  55 --                 declaration, expressions or instructions into simpler
  56 --                 structures that can be handled by the back-end. This
  57 --                 phase is also in charge of generating code which is
  58 --                 implicit in the original source (for instance for
  59 --                 default initializations, controlled types, etc.)
  60 --                 There are two separate instances where expansion is
  61 --                 invoked. For declarations and instructions, expansion is
  62 --                 invoked just after analysis since no resolution needs
  63 --                 to be performed. For expressions, expansion is done just
  64 --                 after resolution. In both cases expansion is done from the
  65 --                 bottom up just before the end of Analyze for instructions
  66 --                 and declarations or the call to Resolve for expressions.
  67 --                 The main routine driving expansion is Expand.
  68 --                 See the spec of Expander for more details.
  69 
  70 --  To summarize, in normal code generation mode we recursively traverse the
  71 --  abstract syntax tree top-down performing semantic analysis bottom
  72 --  up. For instructions and declarations, before the call to the Analyze
  73 --  routine completes we perform expansion since at that point we have all
  74 --  semantic information needed. For expression nodes, after the call to
  75 --  Analysis terminates we invoke the Resolve routine to transmit top-down
  76 --  the type that was gathered by Analyze which will resolve possible
  77 --  ambiguities in the expression. Just before the call to Resolve
  78 --  terminates, the expression can be expanded since all the semantic
  79 --  information is available at that point.
  80 
  81 --  If we are not generating code then the expansion phase is a no-op
  82 
  83 --  When generating code there are a number of exceptions to the basic
  84 --  Analysis-Resolution-Expansion model for expressions. The most prominent
  85 --  examples are the handling of default expressions and aggregates.
  86 
  87 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  88 -- Handling of Default and Per-Object Expressions (Spec-Expressions) --
  89 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  90 
  91 --  The default expressions in component declarations and in procedure
  92 --  specifications (but not the ones in object declarations) are quite tricky
  93 --  to handle. The problem is that some processing is required at the point
  94 --  where the expression appears:
  95 
  96 --    visibility analysis (including user defined operators)
  97 --    freezing of static expressions
  98 
  99 --  but other processing must be deferred until the enclosing entity (record or
 100 --  procedure specification) is frozen:
 101 
 102 --    freezing of any other types in the expression expansion
 103 --    generation of code
 104 
 105 --  A similar situation occurs with the argument of priority and interrupt
 106 --  priority pragmas that appear in task and protected definition specs and
 107 --  other cases of per-object expressions (see RM 3.8(18)).
 108 
 109 --  Another similar case is the conditions in precondition and postcondition
 110 --  pragmas that appear with subprogram specifications rather than in the body.
 111 
 112 --  Collectively we call these Spec_Expressions. The routine that performs the
 113 --  special analysis is called Analyze_Spec_Expression.
 114 
 115 --  Expansion has to be deferred since you can't generate code for expressions
 116 --  that reference types that have not been frozen yet. As an example, consider
 117 --  the following:
 118 
 119 --      type x is delta 0.5 range -10.0 .. +10.0;
 120 --      ...
 121 --      type q is record
 122 --        xx : x := y * z;
 123 --      end record;
 124 
 125 --      for x'small use 0.25;
 126 
 127 --  The expander is in charge of dealing with fixed-point, and of course the
 128 --  small declaration, which is not too late, since the declaration of type q
 129 --  does *not* freeze type x, definitely affects the expanded code.
 130 
 131 --  Another reason that we cannot expand early is that expansion can generate
 132 --  range checks. These range checks need to be inserted not at the point of
 133 --  definition but at the point of use. The whole point here is that the value
 134 --  of the expression cannot be obtained at the point of declaration, only at
 135 --  the point of use.
 136 
 137 --  Generally our model is to combine analysis resolution and expansion, but
 138 --  this is the one case where this model falls down. Here is how we patch
 139 --  it up without causing too much distortion to our basic model.
 140 
 141 --  A switch (In_Spec_Expression) is set to show that we are in the initial
 142 --  occurrence of a default expression. The analyzer is then called on this
 143 --  expression with the switch set true. Analysis and resolution proceed almost
 144 --  as usual, except that Freeze_Expression will not freeze non-static
 145 --  expressions if this switch is set, and the call to Expand at the end of
 146 --  resolution is skipped. This also skips the code that normally sets the
 147 --  Analyzed flag to True. The result is that when we are done the tree is
 148 --  still marked as unanalyzed, but all types for static expressions are frozen
 149 --  as required, and all entities of variables have been recorded. We then turn
 150 --  off the switch, and later on reanalyze the expression with the switch off.
 151 --  The effect is that this second analysis freezes the rest of the types as
 152 --  required, and generates code but visibility analysis is not repeated since
 153 --  all the entities are marked.
 154 
 155 --  The second analysis (the one that generates code) is in the context
 156 --  where the code is required. For a record field default, this is in the
 157 --  initialization procedure for the record and for a subprogram default
 158 --  parameter, it is at the point the subprogram is frozen. For a priority or
 159 --  storage size pragma it is in the context of the Init_Proc for the task or
 160 --  protected object. For a pre/postcondition pragma it is in the body when
 161 --  code for the pragma is generated.
 162 
 163 ------------------
 164 -- Pre-Analysis --
 165 ------------------
 166 
 167 --  For certain kind of expressions, such as aggregates, we need to defer
 168 --  expansion of the aggregate and its inner expressions after the whole
 169 --  set of expressions appearing inside the aggregate have been analyzed.
 170 --  Consider, for instance the following example:
 171 --
 172 --     (1 .. 100 => new Thing (Function_Call))
 173 --
 174 --  The normal Analysis-Resolution-Expansion mechanism where expansion of the
 175 --  children is performed before expansion of the parent does not work if the
 176 --  code generated for the children by the expander needs to be evaluated
 177 --  repeatedly (for instance in the above aggregate "new Thing (Function_Call)"
 178 --  needs to be called 100 times.)
 179 
 180 --  The reason why this mechanism does not work is that the expanded code for
 181 --  the children is typically inserted above the parent and thus when the
 182 --  father gets expanded no re-evaluation takes place. For instance in the case
 183 --  of aggregates if "new Thing (Function_Call)" is expanded before of the
 184 --  aggregate the expanded code will be placed outside of the aggregate and
 185 --  when expanding the aggregate the loop from 1 to 100 will not surround the
 186 --  expanded code for "new Thing (Function_Call)".
 187 
 188 --  To remedy this situation we introduce a new flag which signals whether we
 189 --  want a full analysis (i.e. expansion is enabled) or a pre-analysis which
 190 --  performs Analysis and Resolution but no expansion.
 191 
 192 --  After the complete pre-analysis of an expression has been carried out we
 193 --  can transform the expression and then carry out the full three stage
 194 --  (Analyze-Resolve-Expand) cycle on the transformed expression top-down so
 195 --  that the expansion of inner expressions happens inside the newly generated
 196 --  node for the parent expression.
 197 
 198 --  Note that the difference between processing of default expressions and
 199 --  pre-analysis of other expressions is that we do carry out freezing in
 200 --  the latter but not in the former (except for static scalar expressions).
 201 --  The routine that performs preanalysis and corresponding resolution is
 202 --  called Preanalyze_And_Resolve and is in Sem_Res.

 224    --
 225    --  When this flag is False the flag Expander_Active is also False (the

 289    --  case. We could perhaps do a more accurate job and retain some of the
 290    --  warnings, but it is quite a tricky job.
 291 
 292    -----------------------------------
 293    -- Handling of Check Suppression --
 294    -----------------------------------
 295 
 296    --  There are two kinds of suppress checks: scope based suppress checks,
 297    --  and entity based suppress checks.
 298 
 299    --  Scope based suppress checks for the predefined checks (from initial
 300    --  command line arguments, or from Suppress pragmas not including an entity
 301    --  name) are recorded in the Sem.Scope_Suppress variable, and all that
 302    --  is necessary is to save the state of this variable on scope entry, and
 303    --  restore it on scope exit. This mechanism allows for fast checking of the
 304    --  scope suppress state without needing complex data structures.
 305 
 306    --  Entity based checks, from Suppress/Unsuppress pragmas giving an
 307    --  Entity_Id and scope based checks for non-predefined checks (introduced
 308    --  using pragma Check_Name), are handled as follows. If a suppress or
 309    --  unsuppress pragma is encountered for a given entity, then the flag
 310    --  Checks_May_Be_Suppressed is set in the entity and an entry is made in
 311    --  either the Local_Entity_Suppress stack (case of pragma that appears in
 312    --  other than a package spec), or in the Global_Entity_Suppress stack (case
 313    --  of pragma that appears in a package spec, which is by the rule of RM
 314    --  11.5(7) applicable throughout the life of the entity). Similarly, a
 315    --  Suppress/Unsuppress pragma for a non-predefined check which does not
 316    --  specify an entity is also stored in one of these stacks.
 317 
 318    --  If the Checks_May_Be_Suppressed flag is set in an entity then the
 319    --  procedure is to search first the local and then the global suppress
 320    --  stacks (we search these in reverse order, top element first). The only
 321    --  other point is that we have to make sure that we have proper nested
 322    --  interaction between such specific pragmas and locally applied general
 323    --  pragmas applying to all entities. This is achieved by including in the
 324    --  Local_Entity_Suppress table dummy entries with an empty Entity field
 325    --  that are applicable to all entities. A similar search is needed for any
 326    --  non-predefined check even if no specific entity is involved.
 327 
 328    Scope_Suppress : Suppress_Record;
 329    --  This variable contains the current scope based settings of the suppress
 330    --  switches. It is initialized from Suppress_Options in Gnat1drv, and then
 331    --  modified by pragma Suppress. On entry to each scope, the current setting
 332    --  is saved on the scope stack, and then restored on exit from the scope.
 333    --  This record may be rapidly checked to determine the current status of
 334    --  a check if no specific entity is involved or if the specific entity
 335    --  involved is one for which no specific Suppress/Unsuppress pragma has
 336    --  been set (as indicated by the Checks_May_Be_Suppressed flag being set).
 337 
 338    --  This scheme is a little complex, but serves the purpose of enabling
 339    --  a very rapid check in the common case where no entity specific pragma
 340    --  applies, and gives the right result when such pragmas are used even
 341    --  in complex cases of nested Suppress and Unsuppress pragmas.
 342 
 343    --  The Local_Entity_Suppress and Global_Entity_Suppress stacks are handled
 344    --  using dynamic allocation and linked lists. We do not often use this
 345    --  approach in the compiler (preferring to use extensible tables instead).
 346    --  The reason we do it here is that scope stack entries save a pointer to
 347    --  the current local stack top, which is also saved and restored on scope
 348    --  exit. Furthermore for processing of generics we save pointers to the
 349    --  top of the stack, so that the local stack is actually a tree of stacks
 350    --  rather than a single stack, a structure that is easy to represent using
 351    --  linked lists, but impossible to represent using a single table. Note
 352    --  that because of the generic issue, we never release entries in these
 353    --  stacks, but that's no big deal, since we are unlikely to have a huge

 407    -- Scope Stack --
 408    -----------------
 409 
 410    --  The scope stack indicates the declarative regions that are currently
 411    --  being processed (analyzed and/or expanded). The scope stack is one of
 412    --  the basic visibility structures in the compiler: entities that are
 413    --  declared in a scope that is currently on the scope stack are immediately
 414    --  visible (leaving aside issues of hiding and overloading).
 415 
 416    --  Initially, the scope stack only contains an entry for package Standard.
 417    --  When a compilation unit, subprogram unit, block or declarative region
 418    --  is being processed, the corresponding entity is pushed on the scope
 419    --  stack. It is removed after the processing step is completed. A given
 420    --  entity can be placed several times on the scope stack, for example
 421    --  when processing derived type declarations, freeze nodes, etc. The top
 422    --  of the scope stack is the innermost scope currently being processed.
 423    --  It is obtained through function Current_Scope. After a compilation unit
 424    --  has been processed, the scope stack must contain only Standard.
 425    --  The predicate In_Open_Scopes specifies whether a scope is currently
 426    --  on the scope stack.
 427 
 428    --  This model is complicated by the need to compile units on the fly, in
 429    --  the middle of the compilation of other units. This arises when compiling
 430    --  instantiations, and when compiling run-time packages obtained through
 431    --  rtsfind. Given that the scope stack is a single static and global
 432    --  structure (not originally designed for the recursive processing required
 433    --  by rtsfind for example) additional machinery is needed to indicate what
 434    --  is currently being compiled. As a result, the scope stack holds several
 435    --  contiguous sections that correspond to the compilation of a given
 436    --  compilation unit. These sections are separated by distinct occurrences
 437    --  of package Standard. The currently active section of the scope stack
 438    --  goes from the current scope to the first (innermost) occurrence of
 439    --  Standard, which is additionally marked with flag Is_Active_Stack_Base.
 440    --  The basic visibility routine (Find_Direct_Name, in Sem_Ch8) uses this
 441    --  contiguous section of the scope stack to determine whether a given
 442    --  entity is or is not visible at a point. In_Open_Scopes only examines
 443    --  the currently active section of the scope stack.
 444 
 445    --  Similar complications arise when processing child instances. These
 446    --  must be compiled in the context of parent instances, and therefore the
 447    --  parents must be pushed on the stack before compiling the child, and
 448    --  removed afterwards. Routines Save_Scope_Stack and Restore_Scope_Stack
 449    --  are used to set/reset the visibility of entities declared in scopes
 450    --  that are currently on the scope stack, and are used when compiling
 451    --  instance bodies on the fly.
 452 
 453    --  It is clear in retrospect that all semantic processing and visibility
 454    --  structures should have been fully recursive. The rtsfind mechanism,
 455    --  and the complexities brought about by subunits and by generic child
 456    --  units and their instantiations, have led to a hybrid model that carries
