From f7012c6533fada060e3a434fccddac073145bb3e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2026 23:49:29 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/5] codegen: make var_addrs misses panic loudly and fix latent struct-field silent drop MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Phase 1 of the post-PR-#31 audit. The PR #31 state-local bug had a specific shape: analyzer allocated a slot, codegen looked it up by VarId, silently emitted nothing on miss. Six sites in gen_op plus the global-initializer loop and the parameter-shuffle prologue all used the same `if let Some(&addr) = self.var_addrs.get(var) { ... }` pattern with no else branch. Any future allocation-map desync would slip through the same crack. Replace every site with a new `IrCodeGen::var_addr(VarId) -> u16` helper that panics with an explicit "compiler bug" message on miss. An IR op referencing an unmapped VarId is not valid input — it means the analyzer and lowerer disagreed on what to allocate, and we want that crash to surface in CI rather than be absorbed by whatever zero-filled RAM happened to sit at the read. Running cargo test against the hardened lookup surfaced exactly the bug shape the plan predicted: uninitialized struct globals (e.g. `var p: Point` with no literal initializer) never had their flattened field VarIds (`"p.x"`, `"p.y"`) registered in var_addrs. The IR lowerer's `get_or_create_var("p.x")` minted a VarId, the analyzer's `flatten_struct_fields` allocated an address for it, but IrCodeGen::new only populated var_addrs from `ir.globals`, which doesn't contain synthesized field entries for uninitialized structs. Every `p.x = N` silently compiled to nothing. Fix by exposing the IR lowerer's name→VarId map on IrProgram and joining it with the analyzer's allocations in IrCodeGen::new. Every allocated name that the lowerer knows about now gets a var_addrs entry. Example ROMs are byte-identical (no example relied on the dropped writes), but the bug was reachable — any user program with a plain `var pos: Point` declaration and field writes would have hit it silently. Add `uninitialized_struct_field_store_emits_sta_to_allocated_address` as a byte-level regression guard: compile `p.x = 123` and scan PRG for `LDA #\$7B / STA `. Fails against the old silently-dropping codegen. https://claude.ai/code/session_01AoQ678uVeqpyayvWHpfDhC --- src/codegen/ir_codegen.rs | 148 ++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- src/ir/lowering.rs | 1 + src/ir/mod.rs | 9 +++ src/optimizer/tests.rs | 3 + tests/integration_test.rs | 43 +++++++++++ 5 files changed, 144 insertions(+), 60 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/codegen/ir_codegen.rs b/src/codegen/ir_codegen.rs index 4c046d6..4edbed9 100644 --- a/src/codegen/ir_codegen.rs +++ b/src/codegen/ir_codegen.rs @@ -290,6 +290,19 @@ impl<'a> IrCodeGen<'a> { var_sizes.insert(global.var_id, alloc.size); } } + // Pick up every *other* allocation the analyzer made that the + // IR lowerer synthesized a `VarId` for but didn't push as an + // `IrGlobal` — flattened struct fields (`"pos.x"`) are the + // biggest class, but this also catches any future synthesized + // name.

The codebase had four documented "silently skip" paths that parsed user intent but produced no code. Each one was the same shape as the state-local bug: the analyzer accepted the program, the IR lowered the construct, but somewhere downstream the emitted code was dropped on the floor — and a pixel golden that captured the broken behaviour locked it in as correct. Fix each per the plan, either by implementing the feature or rejecting the program at the analyzer. ### on_exit handlers now actually run `IrOp::Transition` used to comment "on_exit of the current state isn't called here because we don't know from an IR op alone which state we're leaving." The codegen emitted the exit handler's body as an IR function but never JSR'd it. Three example programs (pong, war, state_machine) relied on `stop_music` or mode-flag translation inside `on exit` that had been silently never running. Emit a small CMP-chain against `ZP_CURRENT_STATE` before each transition: for every state that declares an on_exit, compare the current index, branch past on miss, JSR the exit handler on match, then JMP to the shared done-label so only the leaving state's handler fires. The chain is inlined at each transition site (bounded by the number of states declaring on_exit) rather than factored into a single trampoline — simpler to reason about, and transitions are rare enough that the extra bytes don't matter. Pong / war / state_machine ROMs change because the dispatch code is now emitted. Video goldens stay byte-identical (no transitions happen within the 180-frame harness window under no-input). Pong and war audio hashes shifted from pure code-layout timing and are regenerated. `docs/pong.gif` and `docs/war.gif` are byte-identical. ### State-local array initializers now refuse to compile (E0601) `src/ir/lowering.rs:887` had the comment "Array initializers for state-locals aren't supported yet... Programs that try this should get a diagnostic from the analyzer; for now, silently skip." The analyzer never actually emitted that diagnostic. Verified by compiling `state Main { var buf: u8[4] = [10,20,30,40] ... }`: the program built a valid ROM with no trace of 10/20/30/40 in PRG. Add E0601 to the analyzer's state-local pass. The IR lowerer's defensive `continue` stays in place as a belt-and-braces guard. ### `on scanline` without MMC3 is now E0603 Previously E0203 ("invalid operation for type") which is a miscategorisation — the feature is unsupported on the current mapper, not a type error. Dedicated E0603 makes the future-work shape explicit. ### `slow` variables now actually live outside zero page `Placement::Slow` was parsed into the AST but `allocate_ram` ignored it, so `slow var cold: u8` still landed in ZP like any other u8. Wire `var.placement` through `allocate_ram_with_placement` and skip the ZP branch when `Slow` is set. `Fast` remains advisory (the existing default already prefers ZP for u8 vars), validated by W0107. ### Other address-map silent drops hardened Alongside the var_addrs hardening from phase 1, three `state_indices` lookup sites that did `.copied().unwrap_or(0)` or silent `if let` are now explicit panics: scanline IRQ dispatch, MMC3 reload, and `IrOp::Transition`. A miss in any of them is a compiler bug, not valid input — the analyzer catches unknown state names upstream. ### Regression guards Four new tests would have failed against the old silently-dropping code paths: - `analyze_state_local_array_initializer_rejected` — expects E0601. - `analyze_on_exit_declaration_accepted` — expects no errors. - `analyze_slow_var_forced_out_of_zero_page` — expects alloc address >= $0100. - `transition_dispatches_leaving_states_on_exit_handler` — counts distinct JSR targets in the PRG before/after adding `on exit` to a state; the exit-bearing build must have more. All 720 tests pass. All 34 emulator goldens pass after the pong/war audio hash refresh. https://claude.ai/code/session_01AoQ678uVeqpyayvWHpfDhC --- examples/pong.nes | Bin 24592 -> 24592 bytes examples/state_machine.nes | Bin 24592 -> 24592 bytes examples/war.nes | Bin 24592 -> 24592 bytes src/analyzer/mod.rs | 47 +++++++++++-- src/analyzer/tests.rs | 86 ++++++++++++++++++++++- src/codegen/ir_codegen.rs | 90 ++++++++++++++++++++----- src/errors/diagnostic.rs | 6 ++ tests/emulator/goldens/pong.audio.hash | 2 +- tests/emulator/goldens/war.audio.hash | 2 +- tests/integration_test.rs | 74 ++++++++++++++++++++ 10 files changed, 281 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) diff --git a/examples/pong.nes b/examples/pong.nes index ba800df8178db561473c69f8e70caf64b2e31695..d4c8621f4ed8123fc117b17af53ddb02e2f0f1d7 100644 GIT binary patch delta 714 zcmZvZ&1(}u7{+&Yve~R@wz26}(0oj^HA%%#LGV(r;0IU+Zyu#s5D$9MgHW(kC1X)p ztSor!MMjvQPz>}INU@6BQ*^(?Qt?k%J?Kf|n~$cc2s^{P@4Ua~d3JZDfmYzTr`%++ z2%bN1w7{|DCZ?KKyNcA99%n-$UgPRUezz^$9k>FuF6k+Ojb`ZohcwWeDDQAm#tSLg@1*&M@}s5_cDL0qQwqyRJtEx zns(rj)Ff8nm9Wh7Ec2#-ODz^5w>LPprDl}GKGE~-7mAWUE}R5nm^^W4d4nIdPp)CQ z>yV;p5WXS&Ah3o?Lfrbl~1HgJ8 zSRVjRb7D*2-fT}3>b6}7tZXM~TTwD6uz4JdDpSQ=_s3YTN3V^~c>|xA>;+r!c7rW= z))6C9SoL`2{lhgyNR)d5g#)wo{%qZ|E*W`Q^Q~LP+1wT1ZiN?U(XVo~)L;?Vr)OuC yh&E+LX2i0!WlW|X`OrmSoGVP{Q8r9deoY-qBeYc;KQv#AJ`JSC)R&jZ8S)oI#wf%9 delta 606 zcmZ8dO=uHA6yDj{?RI0c{Ud1)O)^nx8>OYUdMMb7Ih0X)7ljCdS3QVep<46M(k`|P zl%5pSDNeLd%~?pWhVH@N-AxYxuU=OLJ;v82L@mrb=6&DyzW3&>Rmd8i1@jx|s=j{L zw_o_4{)zHeLHQD~x}E#bqv{Y>tL`sL)yp?*n>vea?A{?JmU|lHwzwMS7+=S~I_qtE zvqe90^3LNnwAFI?;Usly8yqmvvbTSOkTYUyVC<-IW8ie*|6cBIOEn=TN$yTW`G}8? zK3jvLEJnjJ3#sifnrni=u2&TS$}anSvMP^z6FZb&^pyrF$R3plF?e(Fr_a8>WnXsL zbWLWw8I(u9WN5Uzhem0v%y0-~+9TL@C}4#>cH#qj^08CJ@-?Haoi4fEx?w4xvFHIhK{!mV8#~?DjDAN;Yj#DrMaWj zJxNswEY)Z&RTznaV}<{$CnlB?ss5=@7T+!Hm`dZ*p(0UCyia6x2t|}QoB14i&FCC| z7M7%ytAK%VW^T?j>?zlnRa9I^o*LBah?3}-G{KQw(90i&<(1?JA^Gz2p)2EJez@3W N?Q4~n`%n93*&mo7{Ko(Q diff --git a/examples/state_machine.nes b/examples/state_machine.nes index ca4c77536f68813c1a277a36e6e6d435596d0850..cd69d764c6432e79ee18e49a577c45744c3726c3 100644 GIT binary patch delta 173 zcmbPmfN=s4)iBmitTpD0K6sMp0<#a_p~)W@oE#3C0|QghL4BVTV>S j0F|#f08uW0ti0$D#H!6cOii||^A9l`xVf3%fl&bf+(1I# delta 112 zcmbPmfN=s4)i63wtTpEJKX{Vq0<+JngA;d_v2(3tY-Lu^o$SO|DY@z3QUQrfu2zAS zOhB>62Yq@EEM?SG_`o&!4P%ak!J(B5K;bn9Ai@G4pjtO~Fg4juVzyyTKE!Zf?q+@m GMg;(T-YIqf diff --git a/examples/war.nes b/examples/war.nes index 05fc56df603f9b4dc462e14e0f21e4afcc1825d2..fe83362c8afc7339e68b6237d4fd4b0921e8be9e 100644 GIT binary patch delta 1842 zcmZuyeP|nH7|-41l1rMl(KcO|uI<}quFHmLw{>l)gT}%9W8R=R^bhrq3gQSua0sH< znaKL0g9cmAKU5}u@jBi@$JTZrlu5s~HHF+=KAKGE6j9ui%CZU-oKT4 zM*kgO8g@tGF5;2F93Tg9>*OWDzlE*n+&mFt7Tt!{R^-ER2w_7_X*f|13+S!5?42hE zV^3ZcmdO@2Z;&t^D4ax*B+n@9T)1K$NP zuWM8Nl zm=5U5U+y+90_7b#70b;cn2#qE&W*z7bvkG^^&*>BTuncTZrW)!`j4G%VJEfasiZf? zGQOhIE|c(OfiO`)u$u(dmVpG>ZItAmj-Fe9k?ktA^ln%$_Vlh!1?VZCX4Bkc5OyU{ z*8hkwm_2%HQtR#`8uTXF0|Wm>-mN_rBe; z38uQjD1osy3DrfCUoyt`kuv^RU4tu09pz3Ofcq%Ly3oSLYB*^Wf^EmCB=RmBS+d(p z%E05hIRoUeE0Fx^thjPqj!=N{vPx5aS+=iNLk85_3xzV+pw*J zSOl{T_1}^|Oe>3Zz84c|v#g70(l~L$BH%s)%a*^-SbkZ}v*8K6_GE6=?D1xrcqeXj z??B;Jm0*4HRC2Yj^CM&=he|85zFMsQ`YI?A(CiA^kVCNkgv-0oIESGXMYp delta 1514 zcmZ`(TWB0r7@nQk*;}`}lVmg5Y_sV}V$!U!>Bes2Wed%VHrf$`w6xTh3VkURP4UG- zF_HElK8$XA5T%Hh%0W&bHM)5aOCdMYOkij4DWw#VTG4886SO{v#Q)5$n~jUGu;TA@MH;#R5~eOX(jUm zb6r?Gs~k!hVn))An1%#@FXfY?HosfGh`nr;obVj1oMt?|&U@I0Wwx5UuMUKb>p?duTt70b!8Fj8I7g>4g-HJ^phD z53&%B!BfF{dNaikwzFX@qbrMau=4b`6hXeI5;Fl9qWuw@Awd5Ta@^PAI$$!9S54mY z#m5bkBH&2cHzw_hl#d^q%mtFmAc?M1TVw*@X%h~LTfpb&xsrs!E7}qei~!WNWb*41 zdD>~%Ao6z;O)lmby}JZmR3)Kv}@A@sF0dET#jPo%4<`^ag3(=+?h z)U}yRJDBE0{F_@l#;=>DoLbSwK)@80;*wAqp zL1A~(Os<7xfD0KK27lY6+m*sVB0bKxo z3Sh@T#AWT1UKSsP!9brZ@8sLz%UON%ef}8Np}q#MfWGboP43pAO;UHRmb8~lHMZ1qco&y8Ij6R8&T!6nT^uY;K|egGZl$t7(*Pu>o6HEt_Zhx~V*1}CoxWG&DX zauuw2*ai4hXz@aI_EGXnpjC_)h@&~z;Vo8Puk-YL$pgv~y1K%*a=@5@=5`lJx7s1T zS|lUte)rX)u~B+Td#6YeYO@@I5A!OSRC}6!EmCL1R@z2o?4u6s*Ul8l9kowvT}>)2 cPs?Jom^|9{RoBJvx?|*)Fnj;jXUZ`82cnE{cmMzZ diff --git a/src/analyzer/mod.rs b/src/analyzer/mod.rs index 5c65c87..710270e 100644 --- a/src/analyzer/mod.rs +++ b/src/analyzer/mod.rs @@ -565,6 +565,26 @@ impl Analyzer { self.next_zp_addr = overlay_zp_base; self.next_ram_addr = overlay_ram_base; for var in &state.locals { + // Array initializers on state-locals aren't lowered + // yet — the IR would need to emit a runtime memcpy + // from a ROM blob into the allocated RAM region on + // each on_enter, and today the lowerer just + // `continue`s past the decl.

Iterate over all args (not just the first 4) since the assert guarantees correctness. ### CLAUDE.md: new-feature PR checklist Document the lesson the audit taught: every new language-feature PR must include (1) an example exercising it, (2) a runtime *behaviour* assertion (not just a "ROM validates" shape check), (3) a negative test for invalid use. Call out the specific address-map lookup pattern (`if let Some(&addr) = map.get(..)` with no else) that shipped the state-local bug, and recommend the `IrCodeGen::var_addr` / explicit `.unwrap_or_else(|| panic!)` idiom instead. Chose not to add a regex-based CI tripwire for "silently" / "for now" comments because the false-positive rate against legitimate design decisions ("silently truncate to 8 bits per the cast spec", etc.) would train contributors to ignore it.

The audit's recurring diagnosis: pixel/audio goldens capture *whatever* the program does, not what it *should* do. A silent drop in codegen is still deterministic — the golden locks in the broken behaviour and every future run agrees with it. That's how state-locals, uninitialized struct-field writes, `on exit` handlers, and `slow` placement each sat broken for months-to-a- year in a green CI. The canary inverts the relationship: the committed golden is a solid-green universal backdrop that only appears when every round-trip check passes. Each check writes a distinctive constant through one language construct, reads it back, and clears `all_ok` on mismatch. A final `if all_ok == 0 { set_palette Fail }` flips the entire screen red for the rest of the run. Checks cover the silent-drop shapes caught by this audit: - state-local variable write-read (PR #31) - uninitialized struct-field write-read (caught by phase 1) - u8 / u16 globals (u16 exercises both StoreVar + StoreVarHi) - array-element write at nonzero index - `slow`-placed global still round-trips - function call return value The canary doesn't use `debug.assert` on purpose — debug-only ops get stripped in release and the emulator harness runs release builds. The palette swap works in release and is what the harness pixel-diff sees. ### Why this matters as a long-lived test The harness already had 34 pixel goldens covering full-program behaviour, but none of them exist specifically to fail if a *specific language feature* silently drops. The canary does. Every silent-drop bug the audit found would have flipped it red the moment the check was added, which is the "behaviour assertion that can't be satisfied by silence" the plan called for. ### Harness footprint `tests/emulator/goldens/feature_canary.{png,audio.hash}` + `examples/feature_canary.{ne,nes}`. 35/35 ROMs match their goldens with the canary added.

The old ABI passed every parameter through four fixed zero-page transport slots `$04-$07`, imposing a hard 4-param cap (E0506) that didn't compose with structs/arrays/u16s and fell back to "pack args into a global" workarounds whenever a function needed five things. The transport scheme also cost every non-leaf call a 4-LDA/STA spill prologue (~28 cycles, 16 bytes) to copy args out of ZP before the next nested `JSR` could clobber them. Replace it with a hybrid convention keyed on leaf-ness: - **Leaf callees** (no nested `JSR` in body, ≤4 params): unchanged. Caller stages args into `$04-$07`; body reads those slots directly for its entire lifetime. No prologue copy. Fastest path, 3-cycle ZP stores + 3-cycle ZP loads, preserves the SHA-256 leaf-primitive optimisation that motivated the original fast path. - **Non-leaf callees** (body contains a nested `JSR`, OR ≥5 params): direct-write. Caller stages each argument straight into the callee's analyzer-allocated parameter RAM slot, bypassing the transport slots entirely. No prologue copy on the callee side. Saves ~24 cycles and ~16 bytes per call vs the old transport-then-spill path, and — crucially — scales past 4 params because the per-param slots live wherever the analyzer put them rather than in a fixed ZP window. The analyzer's ceiling moves from 4 to 8. Functions with 5–8 params are silently promoted to the non-leaf convention (even if their body has no nested `JSR`), which pays the direct-write cost rather than the prologue-copy cost — still cheaper than the old ABI. Declarations with 9+ params still emit E0506. ### Implementation - `function_is_leaf` now also requires `param_count <= 4`. - `IrCodeGen::new` populates `non_leaf_param_addrs: HashMap>` — for every non-leaf function, the ordered list of addresses its parameters occupy. Callers use this to route each arg directly to the right slot. - `IrOp::Call` branches on presence in the map: non-leaf → direct- write, leaf (or absent — 0-arg case) → ZP transport. - `gen_function` no longer emits a prologue. Leaves didn't have one; non-leaves had a 4-LDA/STA copy that is now unnecessary because args arrive pre-written to the slot. - The previous `leaf_functions: HashSet` field is removed; leaf-ness is now inferred from absence-in- `non_leaf_param_addrs` at the call site. ### Tests and regressions - `eight_param_non_leaf_function_stages_every_arg_at_its_allocated_slot` compiles an 8-param function, scans PRG for a distinct `LDA #\$NN / STA ` per arg (immediates `0x11..0x88`), and asserts that STAs to the `$04-$07` range are strictly fewer than 8 — proof the old transport path is gone for this call. - `non_leaf_call_direct_writes_args_to_callee_param_slots` replaces the old `gen_function_prologue_spills_params_to_local_ram` test with a dual assertion: (a) no `LDA \$04` prologue at the callee entry, and (b) the caller-side STA lands at the analyzer-allocated param slot, not at `\$04-\$07`. - `analyze_rejects_function_with_more_than_4_params` renamed and rewritten for the new 8-param cap. - `feature_canary.ne` gains a 6-param `sum6` call (1+2+3+4+5+6 = 21) as check 8. The canary stays green (all eight checks pass), so the committed golden is unchanged. ### Blast radius - Six example ROMs change bytes (arrays_and_functions, function_chain, mmc1_banked, pong, sha256, war) because their non-leaf call sites pick up the shorter staging sequence. - Pong and war audio hashes refresh (pure layout-timing shift; no behavioural change in the 180-frame no-input window). docs/pong.gif and docs/war.gif stay byte-identical. - `examples/function_chain.ne`'s header comment updated to document the leaf vs non-leaf split it exercises. - `docs/language-guide.md` parameter-count section and E0506 entry updated to reflect the new rule.
