This commit adds __curPos (to the global scope, yuck) and
builtins.filterSource. These are not implemented; forcing them will
produce the same result as `throw "message"`.
Unfortunately these two post-2.3 features are used throughout
nixpkgs. Since an unresolved indentifier is a catchable error, this
breaks the entire release eval. With this commit, it simply causes
those broken packages that use these features to appear as they are:
broken.

When attempting to call a Value, if it is a Value::Catchable we must

After this commit, the only non-builtins uses of generators are:
- coerce_to_string() uses generators::request_enter_lambda()
- Thunk::force() uses generators::request_enter_lambda()
That's it! Once those two are taken care of, GenCo can become an
implementation detail of `builtins::BuiltinGen`. No more crazy
nonlocal flow control within the interpreter: if you've got a GenCo
floating around in your code it's because you're writing a builtin,
which isn't part of the core interpreter. The interpreter won't
need GenCos to talk to itself anymore.
Technically generators::request_path_import() is also used by
coerce_to_string(), but that's just because the io_handle happens to
be part of the VM. There's no recursion-depth issue there, so the
call doesn't need to go through the generator mechanism
(request_path_import() doesn't call back to the interpreter!)

LightSpan::Delayed was introduced in commit
bf286a54bc which claimed that "This
reduces the eval time for `builtins.length (builtins.attrNames
(import <nixpkgs> {}))` by *one third*!"
I am unable to reproduce this result. In fact, dropping the
LightSpan::Delayed variant of the enum makes eval of the same
expression slightly faster! I also tried a large evaluation
(pkgsCross...hello) and got similar results: slightly faster,
slightly less memory. See git footers.
I suspect that there was some unrelated horrific inefficiency that
has since been fixed. The avoided computation in `get_span()` is
nothing more than a binary search! If this were in fact a major
performance issue we could simply precompute the mapping from
CodeIdx to Span when the Chunk becomes immutable (i.e. at the end of
the compilation process, when compiler backtracking is no longer a
concern). Since a Span is just 64 bits this is not a space issue,
and since binary search is much simpler than compiling Nix
expressions it isn't a performance issue either.
Technically there is no longer any reason to have LightSpan since it
is now a single-variant enum. However there is no rush to remove
it, since Rust will optimize its representation into the same thing
you'd get if you replaced LightSpan by Span.

This is part of a fix for b/338.
We should never use PartialOrd::partial_cmp().
All Nix types except floats are obviously totally-ordered. In
addition, it turns out that because Nix treats division by zero
rather than producing a NaN, and because it does not support
"negative zero", even floats are in fact totally ordered in Nix.
Therefore, every call to PartialOrd::partial_cmp() in tvix is an
error. We have to *implement* this function, but we should never
call it on built-in types.
Moreover, nix_cmp_ordering() currently returns an Option<Ordering>.
I'm not sure what was going on there, since it's impossible for it
to return None. This commit fixes it to return simply Ordering
rather than Option<Ordering>.

This commit rewrites Thunk::force() so that it is not (directly)
self-recursive. It maintains a Vec of all the
previously-encountered thunks which point to the one it is currently
forcing, rather than recursively calling itself.
Benefits:
- Short term:
This commit saves the cost of a round-trip through the generator
machinery for the generators::request_force() which is removed by
this commit.
- Medium term:
Once a similar transformation has been applied to nix_cmp(),
nix_add(), nix_eq(), and coerce_to_string(), those four functions,
along with Thunk::force(), will make non-tail calls only to each
other. They can then be merged into a single tail-recursive
function which does not use the generator machinery at all:
enum Task { Cmp, Add, Eq, CoerceToString, Force};
fn Value::walk(task:Task, v1:Value, v2:Value) {
// ...
- Long term:
The long-term goal here is to use generators **only for builtins**
and [Marionette]-style remote control of the VM. In other words:
use `async` for things that actually involve concurrency. Calls
from the VM to builtins can then be blocking calls, because even
cppnix will overflow the stack if you make a MAX_STACK_DEPTH-deep
recursive call which passes through a builtin at every stack frame
(e.g. `{ func = builtins.sort (a: b: ... func ...) ...}`).
This way the inner "tight loop" of the interpreter doesn't pay the
costs of `async` and generators. These costs manifest in terms
of: performance, complex nonlocal control flow, and language
impediments (async Rust is a restricted subset of real Rust, and
is missing things like traits).

keys until a match is found and allocation is required.

This explicitly documents behavior of C++ Nix that goes against the
intuition you'd gather from this document: that e.g. a simple select
from an attribute set causes a value to no longer be pointer equal to
its former self.
The point of documenting this is that we can show in a to be written
section on the use of pointer equality in nixpkgs that pointer equality
is only needed in a limited sense for evaluating it (C++ Nix's exterior
pointer equality). Tvix's pointer equality is far more powerful since
value identity preserving operations also preserve pointer equality,
generally speaking (this is because we implement interior pointer
equality in my made up terminology). This should eventually also be
documented.

This fixes a subtle issue which would occasionally lead to a crash (e.g.
when evaluating (pkgs.systemd.outPath with --trace-runtime): With each
character in the string that has a multi byte representation in UTF-8,
the actual byte position and what tvix thought it was would get out of
sync. This could either lead to
* Tvix swallowing characters or jumbling characters if multi byte
characters would cause the tracked index to become out of sync with
the byte position before the first character to be escaped, or
* Tvix crashing if (in the same situation) the out of sync index would
be within a UTF-8 byte sequence.
Luckily, std's `char_indices()` iterator implements exactly what
`nix_escape_char()`'s original author had in mind with
`.chars().enumerate()`. Using `i + 1` for continuing is safe, since all
characters that need (in fact, can) to be escaped in Nix are represented
as a single byte in UTF-8.

I've noticed this behavior when writing the admittedly cursed test case
included in this CL. Alternatively we could use some sort of machinery
using `builtins.trace`, but I don't think we capture stderr anywhere.
I've elected to put this into the eval cache itself while C++ Nix does
it in builtins.import already, namely via `realisePath`. We don't have
an equivalent for this yet, since we don't support any kind of IfD, but
we could revise that later. In any case, it seems good to encapsulate
`ImportCache` in this way, as it'll also allow using file hashes as
identifiers, for example.
C++ Nix also does our equivalent of canon_path in `builtins.import`
which we still don't, but I suspect it hardly makes a difference.

When dealing with a formal argument in a function argument pattern that
has a default expression, there are two different things that can happen
at runtime: Either we select its value from the passed attribute
successfully or we need to use the default expression. Both of these may
be thunks and both of these may need finalisers. However, in the former
case this is taken care of elsewhere, the value will always be finalised
already if necessary. In the latter case we may need to finalise the
thunk resulting from the default expression. However, the thunk
corresponding to the expression may never end up in the local's stack
slot. Since finalisation goes by stack slot (and not constants), we need
to prevent a case where we don't fall back to the default expression,
but finalise anyways.
Previously, we worked around this by making `OpFinalise` ignore
non-thunks. Since finalisation of already evaluated thunks still
crashed, the faulty compilation of function pattern arguments could
still cause a crash.
As a new approach, we reinstate the old behavior of `OpFinalise` to
crash whenever encountering something that is either not a thunk or
doesn't need finalisation. This can also help catching (similar)
miscompilations in the future. To then prevent the crash, we need to
track whether we have fallen back or not at runtime. This is done using
an additional phantom on the stack that holds a new `FinaliseRequest`
value. When it comes to finalisation we check this value and
conditionally execute `OpFinalise` based on its value.
Resolves b/261 and b/265 (partially).

In order for the test suite we have currently to be comparable to C++
Nix, we need to display values in the same way. This was largely the
case except in some weird cases.
* <CODE> for thunks and <CYCLE> for repeated thunks (?) are already in
use. <CODE> formatting is tested by the oracle test suite already.
* Instead of lambda, we need to use <LAMBDA>
* <<primop>> and <<primop-app>> (a formatting C++ Nix uses nowhere)
now are <PRIMOP> and <PRIMOP-APP>.
We'll probably want to have a fancier display of values (in a separate
trait) down the line. This could be used for interactive usage, e.g. the
REPL or a potential debugger.
There is a peculiarity with C++ Nix 2.3 formatting primops: import is
considered a <<PRIMOP-APP>>, since it is internally implemented by means
of scopedImport. This implementation detail no longer leaks in C++ Nix
2.13 nor in Tvix.
<CYCLE> display is untested at the moment, since we exhibit a
discrepancy to C++ Nix 2.3. Our current detection is more similar to C++
Nix 2.13—luckily it is also the more consistent of the two. See also

When comparing to C++ Nix, we notice that the thunking of default

e.g. literals are not thunked. This means that we can just invoke
compile() without much of a care and trust that it will sort it out

If function formals blow up as a result of this, it likely indicates
that the expression is treated incorrectly by compile(), not

This means that an unthunked
<stdenv.cc.isGNU or false>
OpForce
OpInvert

mapAttrs, map and genList call Nix functions provided by the caller and
store the result of applying them in a Nix data structure that does not
force all of its contents when forced itself. This means that when such
a builtin application is forced, the Nix function calls performed by the
builtin should not be forced: They may be forced later, but it is also
possible that they will never be forced, e.g. in
builtins.length (builtins.map (builtins.add 2) [ 1 2 3 ])
it is not necessary to compute a single application of builtins.add.
Since request_call_with immediately performs the function call
requested, Tvix would compute function applications unnecessarily before
this change. Because this was not followed by a request_force, the
impact of this was relatively low in Nix code (most functions return a
new thunk after being applied), but it was enough to cause a lot of
bogus builtins.trace applications when evaluating anything from
`lib.modules`. The newly added test includes many cases where Tvix
previously incorrectly applied a builtin, breaking a working expression.
To fix this we add a new helper to construct a Thunk performing a
function application at runtime from a function and argument given as
`Value`s. This mimics the compiler's compile_apply(), but does itself
not require a compiler, since the necessary Lambda can be constructed
independently.
I also looked into other builtins that call a Nix function to verify
that they don't exhibit such a problem:
- Many builtins immediately use the resulting value in a way that makes
it necessary to compute all the function calls they do as soon as
the outer builtin application is forced:
* all
* any
* filter
* groupBy
* partition
- concatMap needs to (shallowly) force the returned list for
concatenation.
- foldl' is strict in the application of `op` (I added a comment that
makes this explicit).
- genericClosure needs to (shallowly) force the resulting list and some
keys of the attribute sets inside.

This feature allows the compiler to detect situations where the
created thunk is useless and can be merged into the parent chunk
instead.
The only case where the compiler does this initially is when
statically optimising a select expression.
For example, previously the expression `builtins.length` compiled into
two thunks:
1. An "inner" thunk which contained an `OpConstant` that had the
optimised `length` builtin in it.
2. An "outer" thunk which contained an `OpConstant` to access the
inner thunk, and the trailing OpForce of the top-level program.
With this change, the inner thunk is skipped completely and the outer
chunk directly contains the `length` builtin access.
This can be applied in several situations, some easier than others,
and we will add them in as we go along.

Given Rust's current lack of support for tail calls, we cannot avoid
using `async` for builtins. This is the only way to avoid
overflowing the cpu stack when we have arbitrarily deep
builtin/interpreted/builtin/interpreted/... "sandwiches"
There are only five `async fn` functions which are not builtins
(some come in multiple "flavors"):
- add_values
- resolve_with
- force, final_deep_force
- nix_eq, nix_cmp_eq
- coerce_to_string
These can be written iteratively rather than recursively (and in
fact nix_eq used to be written that way!). I volunteer to rewrite
them. If written iteratively they would no longer need to be
`async`.
There are two motivations for limiting our reliance on `async` to
only the situation (builtins) where we have no other choice:
1. Performance.
We don't really have any good measurement of the performance hit
that the Box<dyn Future>s impose on us. Right now all of our
large (nixpkgs-eval) tests are swamped by the cost of other
things (e.g. fork()ing `nix-store`) so we can't really measure
it. Builtins tend to be expensive operations anyways
(regexp-matching, sorting, etc) that are likely to already cost
more than the `async` overhead.
2. Preserving the ability to switch to `musttail` calls.
Clang/LLVM recently got `musttail` (mandatory-elimination tail
calls). Rust has refused to add this mainly because WASM doesn't
support, but WASM `tail_call` has been implemented and was
recently moved to phase 4 (standardization). It is very likely
that Rust will get tail calls sometime in the next year; if it
does, we won't need async anymore. In the meantime, I'd like to
avoid adding any further reliance on `async` in places where it
wouldn't be straightforward to replace it with a tail call.

This reorders the operations in the VM's main `match` statement while
evaluating bytecode according to the frequency with which these
operations appear in some nixpkgs evaluations.
I used raw data that looks like this:
https://gist.github.com/tazjin/63d0788a78eb8575b04defaad4ef610d
This has a small but noticeable impact on evaluation performance.
No operations have changed in any way, this is purely moving code
around.

The name of this was not accurate anymore after all the recent
shuffling, as noted by amjoseph. Conceptual tail calls here only occur
for Nix bytecode calling Nix bytecode, but things like a builtin call
actually push a new native frame.

This drops the usage of serde::Serialize, as the trait can not be used
to implement the correct semantics (function colouring!).
Instead, a manual JSON serialisation function is written which
correctly handles toString, outPath and other similar weirdnesses.
Unexpectedly, the eval-okay-tojson test from the C++ Nix test suite
now passes, too.
This fixes an issue where serialising data structures containing
derivations to JSON would fail.

Do not print the entire value (they're likely to be thunks anyways).
This is useful because there *can* be cases where something like
`nixpkgs` itself is sent through one of these messages, in which case
the observer trying to print it will just blow up.

Print only the top 6 values of the stack, not the entire stack.
There's very few operations that deal with more values anyways, so the
rest are not likely to be useful.

Instead of the two different representations (which we don't really
use much), use a `Box<str>` (which potentially shaves another 8 bytes
off `Value`).
NixString values themselves are immutable anyways (which was a
guarantee we already had with `SmolStr`), so this doesn't change
anything else.

The size of a `Vector<Value>` is 64 *bytes*, which is quite large, and
it bloated the entire Value type to this size.
This change adds an indirection for the inner vector through Rc.
Initially I tried to use a Box, but this breaks pointer equality
guarantees for the Vector when it is small enough to be inlined.
This reduces the size of Value from 64 to 32 bytes.
