;;; Commentary:
;;
;; This file implements compilation of required modules.  The
;; compilation is done in parallel in the background (in contrast to
;; what you find in coq-seq-compile.el).
;;
;;
;;; TODO
;;
;; - fix -I current-dir argument for coqc invocations
;; - on error, try to put location info into the error message
;; - use file-attribute-modification-time and similar functions when
;;   dropping support for emacs 25 (emacs 26.1 released on 05/2018)
;; - use define-error when dropping support for emacs 24 (25.1
;;   released on 09/2016)
;;
;; Note that all argument computations inherit `coq-autodetected-version': when
;; changing compilers, all compilation jobs must be terminated.  This is
;; consistent with the fact that the _CoqProject file is not reparsed.
;;
;; tests wanted:
;; - unlock checks for ancestors of failed jobs in different cases
;; - two require jobs, where the first finishes, while the second is
;;   in a state before waiting-dep
;; - a job depending on a failed dependee, where the dependee has been finished before
;; - coq-par-create-file-job detects a dependency cycle
;; - coq-par-create-file-job finds a job in every possible state
;; - coq-par-create-file-job finds a failed job

;;; Code:

(defvar queueitems)       ; dynamic scope in p-s-extend-queue-hook
(eval-when-compile (require 'cl-lib))
(require 'coq-compile-common)

;;
;; Multiple file handling -- parallel compilation of required modules
;;

;; This file implements parallel background compilation. It makes sure
;; that only a certain number (`coq-max-background-compilation-jobs')
;; of coqdep and coqc processes are running in the background.
;;
;; In this file, compilation jobs are uninterned lisp symbols that
;; store all important information in their property list. New
;; compilation jobs are created when Require commands are parsed and
;; when the output of coqdep is processed. If there is space, new jobs
;; are directly launched. Otherwise, they are put into a queue
;; (`coq-par-compilation-queue') to be launched when some other
;; process terminates.
;;
;; Dependencies between files are reflected with suitable links. They
;; are established when the coqdep output is processed. A job with
;; dependencies waits for the dependencies to finish before it
;; continues with coqc.
;;
;; There are two differend kinds of compilation jobs. First, ordinary
;; files, whose dependencies must be determined with coqdep and which
;; might need to be compiled after all their dependencies are ready.
;; These compilation jobs are called 'file jobs here. Apart from 'file
;; jobs there are the Require commands in the asserted region. For
;; each Require command one must determine the modules/files (its
;; dependencies) that must be compiled before the Require command can
;; be processed. Require commands are tracked with 'require jobs here.
;; Typically, a 'require job has a number of 'file jobs as
;; dependencies. coqdep must be run on both, 'require and 'file jobs
;; to determine their dependencies. For 'require jobs this is done in
;; a temporary file. coqc must only be run on 'file jobs.
;;
;; It is pretty clear how to process these compilation jobs. The
;; problems are:
;;
;; 1- where to put the Require command itself and the items that follow it
;; 2- make sure ancestors are properly locked
;; 3- error reporting
;; 4- using -quick and the handling of .vo/.vio prerequisites for Coq < 8.11
;; 5- using -vos for Coq >= 8.11
;;
;;
;; For 1- where to put the Require command and the items that follow it:
;;
;; The Require command and the items that follow cannot stay in
;; proof-action-list, as otherwise they would be sent to the prover
;; long before the compilation finishes. I therefore cut
;; proof-action-list into pieces and leave only the items before the
;; first Require on proof-action-list. The others are put into the
;; 'queueitems property of the 'require command that is created for
;; the Require. When such a 'require job gets ready, it puts the items
;; back into proof-action-list and lets Proof General process them as
;; usual.
;;
;; All 'require commands are linked with so-called 'queue-dependent
;; links, such that later 'require jobs can be delayed until earlier
;; ones are ready. The later 'require job is said to be a queue
;; dependant of the earlier one.
;;
;;
;; For 2- make sure ancestors are properly locked:
;;
;; Consider "Require a. Require b." where a and b depend on c. Locking
;; must be done such that c is only unlocked, when "Require a" is
;; undone and not when "Require b" is undone alone. During compilation
;; files are locked just before coqdep is started on them (after they
;; have been identified as a dependency). At that time the 'lock-state
;; property of the job is set to 'locked. Ancestors are then
;; propagated upwards in the dependency tree and stored in the
;; 'ancestors property of jobs. When a require job is retired all
;; direct and indirect ancestors with 'lock-state 'locked are stored
;; in the 'coq-locked-ancestors property of the span belonging to that
;; require command (in the 'require-span property). The 'lock-state is
;; then set to 'asserted, such that any other require job will ignore
;; these jobs. A span delete action will unlock all uncestors in the
;; 'coq-locked-ancestors property.
;;
;; The 'ancestors property holds a hash that is used as a set, to
;; avoid exponential duplication of ancestors, see Proof General
;; issue 499.
;;
;;
;; For 3- error reporting:
;;
;; Depending on `coq-compile-keep-going' compilation can continue
;; after an error or stop immediately. For stopping immediately,
;; processing is aborted with a signal that eventually leads to
;; `coq-par-emergency-cleanup', which kills all compilation jobs,
;; retracts the queue region and resets all internal data.
;;
;; For `coq-compile-keep-going', the failing job, all ordinary
;; dependants and all queue dependants are marked with 'failed. All
;; ancestors that have already been registered in such a failed job
;; are treated in the following way: If the ancestor is (via a
;; different dependency path) an ancestor of a job that is still being
;; compiled, then the ancestor is kept locked. Otherwise the ancestor
;; is unlocked. Failed jobs continue with their normal state
;; transition, but omit certain steps (eg., running coqc). If a coqc
;; compilation finishes and all dependants are marked as failed, the
;; ancestors are also treated in the way described before. If a failed
;; require job is retired, nothing is done (especially its span is not
;; asserted), unless it is the last compilation job. If the last
;; compilation job is marked as failed when it is retired, then the
;; whole queue region is retracted.
;;
;; When a failing require command follows a bunch of commands that
;; take a while to process, it may happen, that the last failing
;; require command is ready to be retired before the preceeding
;; commands have been processed. In this case the retirement (in
;; particular, unlocking the queue region) must be delayed until proof
;; action list is empty. This is done by adding an empty action into
;; `proof-action-list' that calls the retirement function
;; `coq-par-kickoff-queue-maybe' again. Further
;; `coq--par-delayed-last-job' must be set to disable the cycle
;; detection that is otherwise automatically started if no background
;; job is active and the last require job has not been retired yet.
;;
;;
;; For 4- using -quick and the handling of .vo/.vio prerequisites for Coq < 8.11
;;
;; There are now two ways available to speed up compilation,
;; -quick/-vio and -vos. For Coq >= 8.5 and < 8.11 -quick/-vio is
;; available and coq-compile-quick is consulted in order to determine
;; whether to use it. For Coq >= 8.11 -vos is available and
;; coq-compile-vos is consulted. The following paragraph descripes the
;; complications with -quick/-vio.

;; Coq accepts both .vo and .vio files for importing modules
;; regardless of it is running with -quick or not. However, it is
;; unclear which file is loaded when both, .vo and .vio, of a
;; dependency are present. Therefore I delete a .vio file when I
;; decide to rebuild a .vo file and vica versa. coqdep delivers
;; dependencies for both, .vio and .vo files. These dependencies are
;; identical for .vio and vo (last checked for coq trunk in October
;; 2016). For deciding whether prerequisites must be recompiled the
;; full path returned form coqdep is relevant. Because it seems odd to
;; store a full path without a .vo or .vio suffix I decided to always
;; store the .vo object file name in the 'vo-file property of
;; compilation jobs. Only when all dependencies are ready, in
;; `coq-par-job-needs-compilation' I decide whether to build a .vio or
;; .vo file and if already present .vo or .vio files must be deleted.
;; Only at that point the relevant property 'required-obj-file is set.
;;
;;
;; For 5- using -vos for Coq >= 8.11
;;
;; When Coq >= 8.11 is detected, -vos is used and coq-compile-vos is
;; consulted in order to find out whether to compile to .vos or to .vo
;; files. For people switching PG or switching to Coq 8.11, there is a
;; backward compatibility path: When coq-compile-vos is nil, the
;; decision is derived from coq-compile-quick.
;;
;; The logic here to decide whether compilation is needed or not,
;; assumes coq is used consistently without randomly deleting files.
;; Because coqc always produces an empty .vos file when compiling to
;; .vo, it can never happen, that a .vo file is present without .vos
;; file or that a .vo file is more recent then the corresponding .vos
;; file. This simplifies the logic for deciding about recompilation
;; quite a bit.
;;
;; For Coq >= 8.11, vio to vo compilation is disabled for obvious
;; reasons and in this version of Proof General, there is no similar
;; feature.

  ;; CORRECTNESS ARGUMENT FOR THIS FUNCTION
  ;;
  ;; An outside-cycle job is a job for which the whole upward segment
  ;; of the dependency graph does not contain any cycle (and therefore
  ;; neither job itself belongs to any cycle nor is there a path
  ;; starting in job and leading to a cycle). Any job is either
  ;; outside-cycle or there exists an upward path containing the job
  ;; and a cycle above it.
  ;; The visited-condition is that all jobs marked visited are
  ;; outside-cycle jobs.
  ;; 
  ;; The precondition of this function is that
  ;; - PATH does not contain any job twice,
  ;; - PATH is an reversed upward path where JOB is a dependant of the
  ;;   head of PATH, and
  ;; - the visited-condition holds.
  ;;
  ;; This function returns nil and the visited condition holds at
  ;; return, if the precondition holds and JOB is outside-cycle.
  ;; Proved by induction on the length of the maximal upward path.

  ;; holds and JOB is not outside-cycle. Proved by induction on the

  ;; containing a cycle. Here, right is the direction of the head of

If there already is a last compilation job (`coq--last-compilation-job')
then the queue region is extended, while some background
compilation is still running.  In this case I have to preserve the
internal state.  Otherwise the hash of the compilation jobs and
the ancestor hash are reinitialized.

As next action the new queue items are splitted at each Require
command.  The items before the first Require are appended to the
last compilation job or put back into ‘proof-action-list’.  The
remaining batches of items that each start with a Require are
then processed by `coq-par-handle-require-list', which creates
require jobs as necessary.  Before processing the
first of these batches, buffers are saved with
`coq-compile-save-some-buffers' and an possibly ongoing vio2vo
compilation is stopped.

Finally, `proof-second-action-list-active' is set if I keep some
queue items because they have to wait for a compilation job.  Then
the maximal number of background compilation jobs is started.
