- Fix ambiguities in parser.mly
- Ensure that no new identifiers are bound in or-patterns and
not-patterns, by adding a no_bindings switch to the
environment. These patterns shouldn't generate any bogus flow typing
constraints because we just pass through the original environment
without adding any possible constraints (although this does mean we
don't get any flow typing from negated numeric literals right now,
which is a TODO).
- Reformat some code to match surrounding code.
- Add a typechecking test case for not patterns
- Add a typechecking test case for or patterns
At least at the front end everything should work now, but we need to
do a little bit more to rewrite these patterns away for lem etc.

These match the new ASL pattern constructors:
- !p matches if the pattern p does not match
- { p1, ... pn } matches if any of the patterns p1 ... pn match
We desugar the set pattern "{p1, ... pn}" into "p1 | (p2 | ... pn)".
ASL does not have pattern binding but Sail does. The rules at the
moment are that none of the pattern can contain patterns. This could
be relaxed by allowing "p1 | p2" to bind variables provided p1 and p2
both bind the same variables.

Previously union types could have no-argument constructors, for
example the option type was previously:
union option ('a : Type) = {
Some : 'a,
None
}
Now every union constructor must have a type, so option becomes:
union option ('a : Type) = {
Some : 'a,
None : unit
}
The reason for this is because previously these two different types of
constructors where very different in the AST, constructors with
arguments were used the E_app AST node, and no-argument constructors
used the E_id node. This was particularly awkward, because it meant
that E_id nodes could have polymorphic types, i.e. every E_id node
that was also a union constructor had to be annotated with a type
quantifier, in constrast with all other identifiers that have
unquantified types. This became an issue when monomorphising types,
because the machinery for figuring out function instantiations can't
be applied to identifier nodes. The same story occurs in patterns,
where previously unions were split across P_id and P_app nodes - now
the P_app node alone is used solely for unions.
This is a breaking change because it changes the syntax for union
constructors - where as previously option was matched as:
function is_none opt = match opt {
Some(_) => false,
None => true
}
it is now matched as
function is_none opt = match opt {
Some(_) => false,
None() => true
}
note that constructor() is syntactic sugar for constructor(()), i.e. a
one argument constructor with unit as it's value. This is exactly the
same as for functions where a unit-function can be called as f() and
not as f(()). (This commit also makes exit() work consistently in the
same way) An attempt to pattern match a variable with the same name as
a union-constructor now gives an error as a way to guard against
mistakes made because of this change.
There is probably an argument for supporting the old syntax via some
syntactic sugar, as it is slightly prettier that way, but for now I
have chosen to keep the implementation as simple as possible.
The RISCV spec, ARM spec, and tests have been updated to account for
this change. Furthermore the option type can now be included from
$SAIL_DIR/lib/ using
$include <option.sail>

Gives warnings when pattern matches are incomplete, when matches are
redundant (in certain cases), or when no unguarded patterns exist. For
example the following file:
enum Test = {A, C, D}
val test1 : Test -> string
function test1 x =
match x {
A => "match A",
B => "this will match anything, because B is unbound!",
C => "match C",
D => "match D"
}
val test2 : Test -> string
function test2 x =
match x {
A => "match A",
C => "match C"
/* No match for D */
}
val test3 : Test -> string
function test3 x =
match x {
A if false => "never match A",
C => "match C",
D => "match D"
}
val test4 : Test -> string
function test4 x =
match x {
A if true => "match A",
C if true => "match C",
D if true => "match D"
}
will produce the following warnings
Warning: Possible redundant pattern match at file "test.sail", line 10, character 5 to line 10, character 5
C => "match C",
Warning: Possible redundant pattern match at file "test.sail", line 11, character 5 to line 11, character 5
D => "match D"
Warning: Possible incomplete pattern match at file "test.sail", line 17, character 3 to line 17, character 7
match x {
Most general matched pattern is A_|C_
Warning: Possible incomplete pattern match at file "test.sail", line 26, character 3 to line 26, character 7
match x {
Most general matched pattern is C_|D_
Warning: No non-guarded patterns at file "test.sail", line 35, character 3 to line 35, character 7
match x {
warnings can be turned of with the -no_warn flag.
