26--  Package containing routines used to deal with runtime checks. These
27--  routines are used both by the semantics and by the expander. In some
28--  cases, checks are enabled simply by setting flags for gigi, and in
29--  other cases the code for the check is expanded.
30
31--  The approach used for range and length checks, in regards to suppressed
32--  checks, is to attempt to detect at compilation time that a constraint
33--  error will occur. If this is detected a warning or error is issued and the
34--  offending expression or statement replaced with a constraint error node.
35--  This always occurs whether checks are suppressed or not. Dynamic range
36--  checks are, of course, not inserted if checks are suppressed.

295   --
296   --    The node is transformed into a function call that calls an appropriate
297   --    function in the System.Bignums package to compute a Bignum result.
298   --
299   --  In the first two cases, Lo and Hi are set to the bounds of the possible
300   --  range of results, computed as accurately as possible. In the third case
301   --  Lo and Hi are set to No_Uint (there are some cases where we could get an
302   --  advantage from keeping result ranges for Bignum values, but it could use
303   --  a lot of space and is very unlikely to be valuable).
304   --
305   --  If the node is not an arithmetic operation, then it is unchanged but
306   --  Lo and Hi are still set (to the bounds of the result subtype if nothing
307   --  better can be determined).
308   --
309   --  Note: this function is recursive, if called with an arithmetic operator,
310   --  recursive calls are made to process the operands using this procedure.
311   --  So we end up doing things top down. Nothing happens to an arithmetic
312   --  expression until this procedure is called on the top level node and
313   --  then the recursive calls process all the children. We have to do it
314   --  this way. If we try to do it bottom up in natural expansion order, then
315   --  there are two problems. First, where do we stash the bounds, and more
316   --  importantly, semantic processing will be messed up. Consider A+B+C where
317   --  A,B,C are all of type integer, if we processed A+B before doing semantic
318   --  analysis of the addition of this result to C, that addition could end up
319   --  with a Long_Long_Integer left operand and an Integer right operand, and
320   --  we would get a semantic error.
321   --
322   --  The routine is called in three situations if we are operating in either
323   --  MINIMIZED or ELIMINATED modes.
324   --
325   --    Overflow processing applied to the top node of an expression tree when
326   --    that node is an arithmetic operator. In this case the result is
327   --    converted to the appropriate result type (there is special processing
328   --    when the parent is a conversion, see body for details).
329   --
330   --    Overflow processing applied to the operands of a comparison operation.
331   --    In this case, the comparison is done on the result Long_Long_Integer
332   --    or Bignum values, without raising any exceptions.
333   --
334   --    Overflow processing applied to the left operand of a membership test.
335   --    In this case no exception is raised if a Long_Long_Integer or Bignum
336   --    result is outside the range of the type of that left operand (it is
337   --    just that the result of IN is false in that case).
338   --
339   --  Note that if Bignum values appear, the caller must take care of doing
340   --  the appropriate mark/release operations on the secondary stack.
341   --
342   --  Top_Level is used to avoid inefficient unnecessary transitions into the
343   --  Bignum domain. If Top_Level is True, it means that the caller will have
344   --  to convert any Bignum value back to Long_Long_Integer, possibly checking
345   --  that the value is in range. This is the normal case for a top level
346   --  operator in a subexpression. There is no point in going into Bignum mode
347   --  to avoid an overflow just so we can check for overflow the next moment.
348   --  For calls from comparisons and membership tests, and for all recursive
349   --  calls, we do want to transition into the Bignum domain if necessary.
350   --  Note that this setting is only relevant in ELIMINATED mode.

364
365   --  Overflow checks are similarly controlled by the Do_Overflow_Check flag.
366   --  The difference here is that if back end overflow checks are inactive

432
433   --  In the following procedures, there are three arguments which have
434   --  a common meaning as follows:
435
436   --    Expr        The expression to be checked. If a check is required,
437   --                the appropriate flag will be placed on this node. Whether
438   --                this node is further examined depends on the setting of
439   --                the parameter Source_Typ, as described below.
440
441   --    ??? Apply_Length_Check and Apply_Range_Check do not have an Expr
442   --        formal
443
444   --    ??? Apply_Length_Check and Apply_Range_Check have a Ck_Node formal
445   --        which is undocumented, is it the same as Expr?
446
447   --    Target_Typ  The target type on which the check is to be based. For
448   --                example, if we have a scalar range check, then the check
449   --                is that we are in range of this type.
450
451   --    Source_Typ  Normally Empty, but can be set to a type, in which case
452   --                this type is used for the check, see below.
453
454   --  The checks operate in one of two modes:
455
456   --    If Source_Typ is Empty, then the node Expr is examined, at the very
457   --    least to get the source subtype. In addition for some of the checks,
458   --    the actual form of the node may be examined. For example, a node of
459   --    type Integer whose actual form is an Integer conversion from a type
460   --    with range 0 .. 3 can be determined to have a value in range 0 .. 3.
461
462   --    If Source_Typ is given, then nothing can be assumed about the Expr,
463   --    and indeed its contents are not examined. In this case the check is
464   --    based on the assumption that Expr can be an arbitrary value of the
465   --    given Source_Typ.
466
467   --  Currently, the only case in which a Source_Typ is explicitly supplied
468   --  is for the case of Out and In_Out parameters, where, for the conversion

588

592   --  of efficiency and simplicity (there were difficulties in handling this
593   --  in the back end when side effects were present in the expressions being
594   --  checked).
595
596   --  Probably we could eliminate the Do_Range_Check flag entirely and
597   --  generate the checks earlier, but this is a delicate area and it
598   --  seemed safer to implement the following routines, which are called
599   --  late on in the expansion process. They check the Do_Range_Check flag
600   --  and if it is set, generate the actual checks and reset the flag.
601

610   --  The Reason parameter is the exception code to be used for the exception
611   --  if raised.
612   --
613   --  Note on the relation of this routine to the Do_Range_Check flag. Mostly
614   --  for historical reasons, we often set the Do_Range_Check flag and then
615   --  later we call Generate_Range_Check if this flag is set. Most probably we
616   --  could eliminate this intermediate setting of the flag (historically the

637   -----------------------
638   -- Validity Checking --
639   -----------------------
640
641   --  In (RM 13.9.1(9-11)) we have the following rules on invalid values
642
643   --    If the representation of a scalar object does not represent value of
644   --    the object's subtype (perhaps because the object was not initialized),
645   --    the object is said to have an invalid representation. It is a bounded
646   --    error to evaluate the value of such an object. If the error is
647   --    detected, either Constraint_Error or Program_Error is raised.
648   --    Otherwise, execution continues using the invalid representation. The
649   --    rules of the language outside this subclause assume that all objects
650   --    have valid representations. The semantics of operations on invalid
651   --    representations are as follows:
652   --
653   --       10  If the representation of the object represents a value of the
654   --           object's type, the value of the type is used.
655   --
656   --       11  If the representation of the object does not represent a value
657   --           of the object's type, the semantics of operations on such
658   --           representations is implementation-defined, but does not by
659   --           itself lead to erroneous or unpredictable execution, or to
660   --           other objects becoming abnormal.
661
662   --  We quote the rules in full here since they are quite delicate. Most
663   --  of the time, we can just compute away with wrong values, and get a
664   --  possibly wrong result, which is well within the range of allowed
665   --  implementation defined behavior. The two tricky cases are subscripted
666   --  array assignments, where we don't want to do wild stores, and case
667   --  statements where we don't want to do wild jumps.
668
669   --  In GNAT, we control validity checking with a switch -gnatV that can take
670   --  three parameters, n/d/f for None/Default/Full. These modes have the
671   --  following meanings:
672
673   --    None (no validity checking)
674
675   --      In this mode, there is no specific checking for invalid values
676   --      and the code generator assumes that all stored values are always
677   --      within the bounds of the object subtype. The consequences are as
678   --      follows:
679
680   --        For case statements, an out of range invalid value will cause
681   --        Constraint_Error to be raised, or an arbitrary one of the case
682   --        alternatives will be executed. Wild jumps cannot result even
683   --        in this mode, since we always do a range check
684
685   --        For subscripted array assignments, wild stores will result in
686   --        the expected manner when addresses are calculated using values
687   --        of subscripts that are out of range.
688
689   --      It could perhaps be argued that this mode is still conformant with
690   --      the letter of the RM, since implementation defined is a rather
691   --      broad category, but certainly it is not in the spirit of the
692   --      RM requirement, since wild stores certainly seem to be a case of
693   --      erroneous behavior.
694
695   --    Default (default standard RM-compatible validity checking)
696
697   --      In this mode, which is the default, minimal validity checking is
698   --      performed to ensure no erroneous behavior as follows:
699
700   --        For case statements, an out of range invalid value will cause
701   --        Constraint_Error to be raised.
702
703   --        For subscripted array assignments, invalid out of range
704   --        subscript values will cause Constraint_Error to be raised.
705
706   --    Full (Full validity checking)
707
708   --      In this mode, the protections guaranteed by the standard mode are
709   --      in place, and the following additional checks are made:
710
711   --        For every assignment, the right side is checked for validity
712
713   --        For every call, IN and IN OUT parameters are checked for validity
714
715   --        For every subscripted array reference, both for stores and loads,
716   --        all subscripts are checked for validity.
717
718   --      These checks are not required by the RM, but will in practice
719   --      improve the detection of uninitialized variables, particularly
720   --      if used in conjunction with pragma Normalize_Scalars.
721
722   --  In the above description, we talk about performing validity checks,
723   --  but we don't actually generate a check in a case where the compiler
724   --  can be sure that the value is valid. Note that this assurance must
725   --  be achieved without assuming that any uninitialized value lies within
726   --  the range of its type. The following are cases in which values are
727   --  known to be valid. The flag Is_Known_Valid is used to keep track of
728   --  some of these cases.
729
730   --    If all possible stored values are valid, then any uninitialized
731   --    value must be valid.
732
733   --    Literals, including enumeration literals, are clearly always valid
734
735   --    Constants are always assumed valid, with a validity check being
736   --    performed on the initializing value where necessary to ensure that
737   --    this is the case.
738
739   --    For variables, the status is set to known valid if there is an
740   --    initializing expression. Again a check is made on the initializing
741   --    value if necessary to ensure that this assumption is valid. The
742   --    status can change as a result of local assignments to a variable.
743   --    If a known valid value is unconditionally assigned, then we mark
744   --    the left side as known valid. If a value is assigned that is not
745   --    known to be valid, then we mark the left side as invalid. This
746   --    kind of processing does NOT apply to non-local variables since we
747   --    are not following the flow graph (more properly the flow of actual
748   --    processing only corresponds to the flow graph for local assignments).
749   --    For non-local variables, we preserve the current setting, i.e. a
750   --    validity check is performed when assigning to a knonwn valid global.
751
752   --  Note: no validity checking is required if range checks are suppressed
