2019-02-04Primitive integersMaxime Dénès
This work makes it possible to take advantage of a compact representation for integers in the entire system, as opposed to only in some reduction machines. It is useful for heavily computational applications, where even constructing terms is not possible without such a representation. Concretely, it replaces part of the retroknowledge machinery with a primitive construction for integers in terms, and introduces a kind of FFI which maps constants to operators (on integers). Properties of these operators are expressed as explicit axioms, whereas they were hidden in the retroknowledge-based approach. This has been presented at the Coq workshop and some Coq Working Groups, and has been used by various groups for STM trace checking, computational analysis, etc. Contributions by Guillaume Bertholon and Pierre Roux <Pierre.Roux@onera.fr> Co-authored-by: Benjamin Grégoire <Benjamin.Gregoire@inria.fr> Co-authored-by: Vincent Laporte <Vincent.Laporte@fondation-inria.fr>

The upper layers still need a mapping constant -> projection, which is provided by Recordops.
2018-05-28Fix #7333: vm_compute segfaults / Anomaly with cofixMaxime Dénès
We eta-expand cofixpoints when needed, so that their call-by-need evaluation is correctly implemented by VM and native_compute.

2018-03-03Handling evars in the VM.Pierre-Marie Pédrot
We simply treat them as as an application of an atom to its instance, and in the decompilation phase we reconstruct the instance from the stack. This grants wish BZ#5659.

2018-02-23New IR in VM: Clambda.Maxime Dénès
This intermediate representation serves two purposes: 1- It is a preliminary step for primitive machine integers, as iterators will be compiled to Clambda. 2- It makes the VM compilation passes closer to the ones of native_compute. Once we unifiy the representation of values, we should be able to factorize the lambda-code generation between the two compilers, as well as the reification code. This code was written by Benjamin Grégoire and myself.
