Don't generate C code from bison, leave that to the skeletons.
* src/output.c (merger_output): Emit invocations to b4_call_merger.
* data/skeletons/glr.c (b4_call_merger): New.
Symbols are richer than types, and in M4 it is my simpler (and more
common) to deal with symbols rather than types. So let's associate
mergers to a symbol rather than a type name.
* src/reader.h (merger_list): Replace the 'type' member by a symbol
member.
* src/reader.c (record_merge_function_type): Take a symbol as
argument, rather than a type name.
* src/output.c (merger_output): Adjust.
This macro is not exposed to users, make start it with 'YY_'.

(YY_USE): this.
When comparing traces from different machines, the mixture of
stdout/stderr in the output are making things uselessly difficult.
* src/lssi.c, src/state-item.c: Output debug traces on stderr.
When using glr.cc, the C function yyparse is an internal detail that
should not be exposed. Users might call it by accident (I did).
* data/skeletons/glr.c (yyparse): When used for glr.cc, rename as yy_parse_impl.
* data/skeletons/glr.cc: Adjust.
The yydefgoto table uses -1 as an invalid for an impossible case (we
never use yydefgoto[0], since it corresponds to the reduction to
$accept, which never happens). Since yydefgoto is a table of state
numbers, this -1 forces a signed type uselessly, which (1) might
trigger compiler warnings when storing a value from yydefgoto into a
state number (nonnegative), and (2) wastes bits which might result in
using a int16 where a uint8 suffices.

* src/tables.c (default_goto): Use 0 rather than -1 as invalid value.

Before:
YY_ASSERT (tok == token::YYEOF || tok == token::YYerror || tok == token::YYUNDEF || tok == 120 || tok == 49 || tok == 50 || tok == 51 || tok == 52 || tok == 53 || tok == 54 || tok == 55 || tok == 56 || tok == 57 || tok == 97 || tok == 98);
After:
YY_ASSERT (tok == token::YYEOF
|| (token::YYerror <= tok && tok <= token::YYUNDEF)
|| tok == 120
|| (49 <= tok && tok <= 57)
|| (97 <= tok && tok <= 98));
Clauses are now also wrapped on several lines. This is nicer to read
and diff, but also avoids pushing Visual C++ to its arbitrary
limits (640K and lines of 16380 bytes ought to be enough for anybody,
otherwise make an C2026 error).
The useless parens are there for the dummy warnings about
precedence (in the future, will we also have to put parens in
`1+2*3`?).
* data/skeletons/variant.hh (_b4_filter_tokens, b4_tok_in, b4_tok_in):
New.
(_b4_token_constructor_define): Use them.
Working on the previous commit I realized that YY_ASSERT was used in
the generated headers, so must follow api.prefix to avoid clashes when
multiple C++ parser with variants are used.
Actually many more macros should obey api.prefix (YY_CPLUSPLUS,
YY_COPY, etc.). There was no complaint so far, so it's not urgent
enough for 3.7.4, but it should be addressed in 3.8.
* data/skeletons/variant.hh (b4_assert): New.
Use it.
* tests/local.at (AT_YYLEX_RETURN): Fix.
* tests/headers.at: Make sure variant-based C++ parsers are checked
too.
This test did find that YY_ASSERT escaped renaming (before the fix in
this commit).
In some extreme situations (about 800 tokens), we generate a
single-line assertion long enough for Visual C++ to discard the end of
the line, thus falling into parse ends for the missing `);`. On a
shorter example:
YY_ASSERT (tok == token::TOK_YYEOF || tok == token::TOK_YYerror || tok == token::TOK_YYUNDEF || tok == token::TOK_ASSIGN || tok == token::TOK_MINUS || tok == token::TOK_PLUS || tok == token::TOK_STAR || tok == token::TOK_SLASH || tok == token::TOK_LPAREN || tok == token::TOK_RPAREN);
Whether NDEBUG is used or not is irrelevant, the parser dies anyway.
Reported by Jot Dot <[email protected]>.
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-11/msg00002.html
We should avoid emitting lines so long.
We probably should also use a range-based assertion (with extraneous
parens to pacify fascist compilers):
YY_ASSERT ((token::TOK_YYEOF <= tok && tok <= token::TOK_YYUNDEF)
|| (token::TOK_ASSIGN <= tok && ...)
But anyway, we should simply not emit this assertion at all when not
asked for.
* data/skeletons/variant.hh: Do not define, nor use, YY_ASSERT when it
is not enabled.
Commit af000bab11 ("doc: work around
Texinfo 6.7 bug"), published in 3.4.91, added a dependency on the
"all" target.
This is a super bad idea, since "make all" will run this
target *before* "all", which builds bison. It turns out that this new
dependency actually needed bison to be built. So all the regular
process (i) build $(BUILT_SOURCES) and then (ii) build bison, was
wrecked since some of the $(BUILT_SOURCES) depended on bison...
It was "easy" to see in the logs of "make V=1" because we were
building bison files (such as src/files.o) *before* displaying the
banner for "all-recursive". With this fix, we finally get again the
proper sequence:

On an empty such as
%token FOO
BAR
FOO 0
%%
input: %empty
we crash because when we find FOO 0, we decrement ntokens (since FOO
was discovered to be EOF, which is already known to be a token, so we
increment ntokens for it, and need to cancel this). This "works well"
when EOF is properly defined in one go, but here it is first defined
and later only assign token code 0. In the meanwhile BAR was given
the token number that we just decremented.
To fix this, assign symbol numbers after parsing, not during parsing,
so that we also saw all the explicit token codes. To maintain the
current numbers (I'd like to keep no difference in the output, not
just equivalence), we need to make sure the symbols are numbered in
the same order: that of appearance in the source file. So we need the
locations to be correct, which was almost the case, except for nterms
that appeared several times as LHS (i.e., several times as "foo:
..."). Fixing the use of location_of_lhs sufficed (it appears it was
intended for this use, but its implementation was unfinished: it was
always set to "false" only).
