- -- Handling of Freezing --
- --------------------------
-
- -- In the formal Ada semantics, freezing of entities occurs at a well
- -- defined point, described in (RM 13.14). The model in GNAT of freezing
- -- is that a Freeze_Entity node is generated at the point where an entity
- -- is frozen, and the entity contains a pointer (Freeze_Node) to this
- -- generated freeze node.
-
- -- The freeze node is processed in the expander to generate associated
- -- data and subprograms (e.g. an initialization procedure) which must
- -- be delayed until the type is frozen and its representation can be
- -- fully determined. Subsequently the freeze node is used by Gigi to
- -- determine the point at which it should elaborate the corresponding
- -- entity (this elaboration also requires the representation of the
- -- entity to be fully determinable). The freeze node is also used to
- -- provide additional diagnostic information (pinpointing the freeze
- -- point), when order of freezing errors are detected.
-
- -- If we were fully faithful to the Ada model, we would generate freeze
- -- nodes for all entities, but that is a bit heavy so we optimize (that
- -- is the nice word) or cut corners (which is a bit more honest). For
- -- many entities, we do not need to delay the freeze and instead can
- -- freeze them at the point of declaration. The conditions for this
- -- early freezing being permissible are as follows:
-
- -- There is no associated expander activity that needs to be delayed
-
- -- Gigi can fully elaborate the entity at the point of occurrence (or,
- -- equivalently, no real elaboration is required for the entity).
-
- -- In order for these conditions to be met (especially the second), it
- -- must be the case that all representation characteristics of the entity
- -- can be determined at declaration time.
-
- -- The following indicates how freezing is handled for all entity kinds:
-
- -- Types
-
- -- All declared types have freeze nodes, as well as anonymous base
- -- types created for type declarations where the defining identifier
- -- is a first subtype of the anonymous type.
-
- -- Subtypes
-
- -- All first subtypes have freeze nodes. Other subtypes need freeze
- -- nodes if the corresponding base type has not yet been frozen. If
- -- the base type has been frozen, then there is no need for a freeze
- -- node, since no rep clauses can appear for the subtype in any case.
-
- -- Implicit types and subtypes
-
- -- As noted above, implicit base types always have freeze nodes. Other
- -- implicit types and subtypes typically do not require freeze nodes,
- -- because there is no possibility of delaying any information about
- -- their representation.
-
- -- Subprograms
- --
- -- Are frozen at the point of declaration unless one or more of the
- -- formal types or return type themselves have delayed freezing and
- -- are not yet frozen. This includes the case of a formal access type
- -- where the designated type is not frozen. Note that we are talking
- -- about subprogram specs here (subprogram body entities have no
- -- relevance), and in any case, subprogram bodies freeze everything.
-
- -- Objects with dynamic address clauses
- --
- -- These have a delayed freeze. Gigi will generate code to evaluate
- -- the initialization expression if present and store it in a temp.
- -- The actual object is created at the point of the freeze, and if
- -- necessary initialized by copying the value of this temporary.
-
- -- Formal Parameters
- --
- -- Are frozen when the associated subprogram is frozen, so there is
- -- never any need for them to have delayed freezing.
-
- -- Other Objects
- --
- -- Are always frozen at the point of declaration
-
- -- All Other Entities
-
- -- Are always frozen at the point of declaration
-
- -- The flag Has_Delayed_Freeze is used for to indicate that delayed
- -- freezing is required. Usually the associated freeze node is allocated
- -- at the freezing point. One special exception occurs with anonymous
- -- base types, where the freeze node is preallocated at the point of
- -- declaration, so that the First_Subtype_Link field can be set.
-
- Freezing_Library_Level_Tagged_Type : Boolean := False;
- -- Flag used to indicate that we are freezing the primitives of a library
- -- level tagged types. Used to disable checks on premature freezing.
- -- More documentation needed??? why is this flag needed? what are these
- -- checks? why do they need disabling in some cases?
-
- -----------------
- -- Subprograms --
- -----------------
-
- function Build_Renamed_Body
- (Decl : Node_Id;
- New_S : Entity_Id) return Node_Id;
- -- Rewrite renaming declaration as a subprogram body, whose single
- -- statement is a call to the renamed entity. New_S is the entity that
- -- appears in the renaming declaration. If this is a Renaming_As_Body,
- -- then Decl is the original subprogram declaration that is completed
- -- by the renaming, otherwise it is the renaming declaration itself.
- -- The caller inserts the body where required. If this call comes
- -- from a freezing action, the resulting body is analyzed at once.
-
- procedure Check_Compile_Time_Size (T : Entity_Id);
- -- Check to see whether the size of the type T is known at compile time.
- -- There are three possible cases:
- --
- -- Size is not known at compile time. In this case, the call has no
- -- effect. Note that the processing is conservative here, in the sense
- -- that this routine may decide that the size is not known even if in
- -- fact Gigi decides it is known, but the opposite situation can never
- -- occur.
- --
- -- Size is known at compile time, but the actual value of the size is
- -- not known to the front end or is definitely 32 or more. In this case
- -- Size_Known_At_Compile_Time is set, but the Esize field is left set
- -- to zero (to be set by Gigi).
- --
- -- Size is known at compile time, and the actual value of the size is
- -- known to the front end and is less than 32. In this case, the flag
- -- Size_Known_At_Compile_Time is set, and in addition Esize is set to
- -- the required size, allowing for possible front end packing of an
- -- array using this type as a component type.
- --
- -- Note: the flag Size_Known_At_Compile_Time is used to determine if the
- -- secondary stack must be used to return a value of the type, and also
- -- to determine whether a component clause is allowed for a component
- -- of the given type.
- --
- -- Note: this is public because of one dubious use in Sem_Res???
- --
- -- Note: Check_Compile_Time_Size does not test the case of the size being
- -- known because a size clause is specifically given. That is because we
- -- do not allow a size clause if the size would not otherwise be known at
- -- compile time in any case.
-
- procedure Expand_Atomic_Aggregate (E : Entity_Id; Typ : Entity_Id);
- -- If an atomic object is initialized with an aggregate or is assigned
- -- an aggregate, we have to prevent a piecemeal access or assignment
- -- to the object, even if the aggregate is to be expanded. We create
- -- a temporary for the aggregate, and assign the temporary instead,
- -- so that the back end can generate an atomic move for it.
-
- function Freeze_Entity (E : Entity_Id; Loc : Source_Ptr) return List_Id;
- -- Freeze an entity, and return Freeze nodes, to be inserted at the
- -- point of call. Loc is a source location which corresponds to the
- -- freeze point. This is used in placing warning messages in the
- -- situation where it appears that a type has been frozen too early,
- -- e.g. when a primitive operation is declared after the freezing
- -- point of its tagged type. Returns No_List if no freeze nodes needed.
-
- procedure Freeze_All (From : Entity_Id; After : in out Node_Id);
- -- Before a non-instance body, or at the end of a declarative part
- -- freeze all entities therein that are not yet frozen. Calls itself
- -- recursively to catch types in inner packages that were not frozen
- -- at the inner level because they were not yet completely defined.
- -- This routine also analyzes and freezes default parameter expressions
- -- in subprogram specifications (this has to be delayed until all the
- -- types are frozen). The resulting freeze nodes are inserted just
- -- after node After (which is a list node) and analyzed. On return,
- -- 'After' is updated to point to the last node inserted (or is returned
- -- unchanged if no nodes were inserted). 'From' is the last entity frozen
- -- in the scope. It is used to prevent a quadratic traversal over already
- -- frozen entities.
-
- procedure Freeze_Before (N : Node_Id; T : Entity_Id);
- -- Freeze T then Insert the generated Freeze nodes before the node N
-
- procedure Freeze_Expression (N : Node_Id);
- -- Freezes the required entities when the Expression N causes freezing.
- -- The node N here is either a subexpression node (a "real" expression)
- -- or a subtype mark, or a subtype indication. The latter two cases are
- -- not really expressions, but they can appear within expressions and
- -- so need to be similarly treated. Freeze_Expression takes care of
- -- determining the proper insertion point for generated freeze actions.
-
- procedure Freeze_Fixed_Point_Type (Typ : Entity_Id);
- -- Freeze fixed point type. For fixed-point types, we have to defer
- -- setting the size and bounds till the freeze point, since they are
- -- potentially affected by the presence of size and small clauses.
-
- procedure Freeze_Itype (T : Entity_Id; N : Node_Id);
- -- This routine is called when an Itype is created and must be frozen
- -- immediately at the point of creation (for the sake of the expansion
- -- activities in Exp_Ch3 (for example, the creation of packed array
- -- types). We can't just let Freeze_Expression do this job since it
- -- goes out of its way to make sure that the freeze node occurs at a
- -- point outside the current construct, e.g. outside the expression or
- -- outside the initialization procedure. That's normally right, but
- -- not in this case, since if we create an Itype in an expression it
- -- may be the case that it is not always elaborated (for example it
- -- may result from the right operand of a short circuit). In this case
- -- we want the freeze node to be inserted at the same point as the Itype.
- -- The node N provides both the location for the freezing and also the
- -- insertion point for the resulting freeze nodes.
