First pure-fn migration batch. Both are leaf fns (no internal Janet callers);
the Clojure defs (not . some / not . every?) match the prior Janet behavior.
Removed the core-* defns and their core-bindings entries.
conformance 218/218 x3, clojure-test-suite 3927, core-bench 2340ms vs 2336ms
baseline (noise).
Classify the 421 core-* fns into seed/macro/host/lazy/movable buckets and record
a compile-mode benchmark baseline to catch regressions as fns move from native
Janet to the self-hosted overlay. Worklist in jolt-core/clojure/core/MIGRATION.md.
Finding: after seed + host, the self-hosted compiler uses no clojure.core fns
beyond the existing kernel tier (+ atom/swap!/reset! host primitives), so the
compiler-dep kernel tier is already complete — confirmed by self-host
conformance passing.
Three pure function combinators into the collection tier, as compositions of
mapv/every?/some/apply. Three more core-* primitives + table entries gone.
Battery 3916 -> 3920 (the canonical defs are more correct than the prior Janet
ones — some-fn returns the matching value, every-pred is properly boolean).
Conformance 218/218 all modes.
New collection tier (core/20-coll.clj): six pure, eager fns expressed as
compositions of frozen primitives (reduce/assoc/get/conj/filter/vec). Six more
core-* primitives + table entries gone from the Janet kernel.
Two semantics to preserve, caught by the suite:
- max-key/min-key use the canonical multi-arity form (strict </> on the first
pair, <=/>= in the fold) to reproduce the JVM IEEE-754 NaN behavior; a single
reduce got the NaN cases wrong.
- frequencies/group-by base on (hash-map), not the {} literal: a struct map
doesn't canonicalize collection keys across representations ({:a 1} literal vs
(hash-map :a 1)), a PHM does — same reason the Janet impl used make-phm.
Conformance 218/218 all modes; battery holds 3916.
First fractal turn of the multi-stage bootstrap (jolt-tzo). The Clojure part of
clojure.core is now loaded in ordered tiers under jolt-core/clojure/core/. The
kernel tier (00-kernel: second/peek/subvec/mapv/update) holds the structural fns
the self-hosted compiler itself uses; in compile mode it is bootstrap-compiled
into clojure.core BEFORE the analyzer is built, so the analyzer binds those names
to the Clojure definitions instead of a not-yet-defined forward ref. That removes
the circularity that previously forced these to stay in Janet — the five core-*
primitives and their init-core! entries are gone.
Mechanism: backend/bootstrap-load-source (generalized from compile-load) builds a
source string into a target ns via the bootstrap; rebuild-compiler! recompiles
the self-hosted compiler against the current core (the rail for future turns,
exercised by the new fixpoint test). api/load-core-overlay! walks the ordered
tiers, bootstrap-loading kernel tiers and self-hosting the rest.
Also fixes a latent evaluator bug surfaced by the move: a fn rebinds current-ns
to its defining ns while it runs and restores on normal return, but a fn that
THREW unwound past its own restore, leaking the ns. try now restores the
try-entry ns on the catch/finally path, so referred-symbol resolution survives a
caught error (this was breaking is/testing in the suite harness after any thrown
assertion). Net battery +3 (3913 -> 3916); conformance 218/218 in all three
modes; binary builds and runs the embedded tiers.
