Completes the JVM long-compatibility gap so clojure.test.check (and the
property-based suites built on it, e.g. data.codec) run on jolt.
A ^long is 64-bit but a Chez fixnum is only 61-bit, so the backend's fast fx
comparison / quot / min / max / inc / dec ops raised on a full-width long (one
from the PRNG or wrapping arithmetic). They now go through the jolt-l* macros
(host/chez/seq.ss): the fx fast path when the operands ARE fixnums, the generic
op otherwise — so e.g. ((fn [^long a ^long b] (< a b)) Long/MAX 1) is false, not
an error. Arithmetic +/-/* keep the raw fx ops (under *unchecked-math* they're
already the wrapping unchecked-*).
Also fixes unsigned-bit-shift-right: it was an arithmetic (sign-propagating)
shift, now a logical shift over the 64-bit two's-complement window, so
(unsigned-bit-shift-right -1 1) is 2^63-1 like the JVM.
Result: test.check 1.1.3 loads and runs (generators, quick-check, shrinking);
data.codec's base64 property suite passes (12/12 defspecs; the 2 deftests check
clojure.lang.IFn$OLLOL, a JVM primitive-fn interface, N/A). Both added to
docs/libraries.md + the site.
re-mint (backend/seed). make test green (+3 corpus rows, 0 new divergences,
numeric gate updated to the jolt-l* ops), shakesmoke byte-identical.
clojure.core's unchecked-* (and +/-/*/inc/dec under *unchecked-math*) are long
ops that WRAP on overflow; jolt's checked arithmetic is arbitrary-precision and
its unchecked-* were plain non-wrapping (+ x y), diverging from the JVM. Now they
truncate to the low 64 bits as a signed long, matching Clojure:
(unchecked-add 9223372036854775807 1) => -9223372036854775808
(unchecked-multiply 9223372036854775807 …) => 1
- host/chez/seq.ss: jolt-wrap64 + binary jolt-unc{add,sub,mul,inc,dec,neg}2 and
the variadic clojure.core/unchecked-* fns (def-var!'d in natives-seq.ss, where
def-var! is bound). The overlay's plain unchecked-* defns are removed.
- backend lng-ops: unchecked-+/-/* emit the wrapping jolt-unc* helpers (the
raising fx ops can't wrap on Chez's 61-bit fixnums); unchecked-inc/dec too.
- *unchecked-math* is honored: the analyzer reads it (jolt.host/unchecked-math?)
and rewrites +/-/*/inc/dec to their unchecked-* for the rest of a file that
(set!)s it, like the JVM.
- jolt->fx: a ^long value that overflows the 61-bit fixnum range passes through
as an exact integer instead of erroring (a full-width long from wrapping math).
Also adds Long/bitCount / numberOfLeadingZeros / reverse and Math/getExponent /
scalb (test.check's splittable PRNG uses them).
This lets clojure.test.check load and run quick-check on jolt. re-mint (analyzer/
backend/overlay are seed sources). make test green (+6 corpus rows, 0 new
divergences, numeric gate updated), shakesmoke byte-identical.
Adds clojure.core.async's higher-level dataflow API as a Clojure overlay
(stdlib/clojure/core/async.clj) over jolt's native channel primitives, plus
clojure.core.async.lab. The native layer (host/chez/java/async.ss) gains
offer!/poll!, put specs and :priority/:default in alts!, a transducer
ex-handler arg to chan, unblocking-buffer?, promise-buffer, and on-caller?
handling for put!/take!. The overlay covers alts!/pipe/pipeline/split/
reduce/transduce/into/take/mult/mix/pub-sub/map/merge/onto-chan/to-chan and
the deprecated map</map>/filter>/... family (rewritten as go-loops since the
JVM versions reify the impl handler protocol jolt doesn't expose).
Loading: the native primitives pre-seed clojure.core.async, so the loader now
drops it from the loaded set and a require pulls the overlay from the source
roots like clojure.test (AOT-bundled into built binaries).
Running clojure/core.async's own suite shook out two general bugs:
- :refer with a list form, (:require [ns :refer (a b c)]), dropped the names
(only the vector form was handled) — chez-register-spec! now accepts both.
- (range 0) / (range 5 5) returned nil instead of the empty seq () — empty
ranges now match Clojure, so (= () (range 0)) holds.
Suite: async_test 15/20, pipeline_test 7/7, timers_test 2/2, lab_test 2/2.
The five non-passing async_test cases all assert JVM go-machine limitations
jolt's thread-based model is a superset of (the 1024 pending-op cap, parking
ops that must throw outside a go block, expanding-transducer buffer
backpressure) or dispatch-thread identity, not data semantics.
make test green (0 new divergences, +4 range corpus rows), shakesmoke
byte-identical.
('sym coll) / ('sym coll default) now do (get coll 'sym ...), like keywords —
a symbol is IFn on the JVM. jolt threw "cannot be cast to clojure.lang.IFn".
Pre-existing gap (not a regression), surfaced by honeysql's :checking mode,
which does ('where dsl) to look up a clause. honeysql 623/13/8 -> 635/8/1.
Corpus rows added.
jolt's seq layer realized one element ahead of Clojure, so a side-effecting
lazy seq ran its producer too eagerly. Four changes bring it in line:
- rest is Clojure's more(): it returns the tail without realizing it. An
unforced tail (vector / string / lazy-seq cell) comes back as a deferred
seq, so (rest (iterate f x)) does not call f. next still realizes one.
- iterate applies f lazily, inside the tail thunk, so (first (iterate f x))
is x with no call to f (clojure.lang.Iterate parity).
- take realizes exactly n: the last element terminates without touching the
rest, instead of forcing one more element of the source.
- an empty realized lazy seq is still a sequence value, printing "()" not
"nil" (a JVM LazySeq is never nil).
Also: the map transducer's step fn now takes multiple inputs
([result input & inputs]) so a multi-collection transduce applies f across
all of them. Fixes medley's join/window/sequence-padded laziness and
multi-input transducer tests (now 293/293). The rest change also fixed a
latent overrun in distinct/dedupe over a map's empty tail.
iterate is a seed source, re-minted.
A type-aware audit (~190 collection expressions vs reference Clojure) found four
divergences the corpus missed — value-equality (= [0 1] '(0 1)) hides type and
laziness differences. Fixed, with type-predicate + over-infinite corpus rows that
pin them.
- partition-all [n coll] built vector chunks; JVM chunks are seqs. (The [n step
coll] arity was already correct, as is the partition-all transducer, whose
chunks are vectors in JVM too.) Now builds seq chunks.
- replace always returned a vector (mapv) and was eager; JVM is type-preserving —
a vector maps to a vector, any other seqable to a lazy seq.
- sequence eagerly realized its source (into-xform), so (first (sequence (map inc)
(range))) hung. Rewrote as a transformer iterator: pull one input at a time,
buffer the step outputs, emit lazily, run the completion to flush a stateful
xform. eduction builds on it (lazy, no longer an eager vector).
- mapcat and (apply concat coll-of-colls) hung over an infinite source because
jolt-apply seq->lists the trailing arg and mapcat seq->lists the map result.
Added lazy-concat-seq (lazily flatten a seq of colls); mapcat uses it directly,
and apply special-cases concat (its result is lazy) to route through it.
Docs: a cross-cutting return-type + laziness contract in docs/spec/09-core-library;
SPEC.md notes that = masks type/laziness so they need predicate / over-infinite
rows. EBNF is reader syntax only — unaffected.
Seed change (partition-all/replace/eduction are clojure.core overlay) -> re-mint;
selfhost holds. make test + shakesmoke + buildsmoke green, 0 new divergences.

* Reader records source line/column on list forms
The reader stamps 1-based :line/:column metadata on every list form (plus
:file when load-jolt-file is reading a file), and jolt.host/form-position
reads it back so the analyzer's :pos scaffold finally gets real data. A
left-to-right cursor counts newlines over the delta between successive forms,
so it stays O(n). Vector/map/set literals are untouched (their metadata is a
runtime value the analyzer would have to wrap in with-meta); empty () can't
carry meta. ^meta now merges onto the position keys instead of clobbering them.
Re-mint is byte-identical (the backend doesn't emit :pos), so this is a pure
scaffold for the error-location work that follows.
* Report source location on uncaught errors
Each top-level form records its source position (thread-local) before it
compiles+evals, and cli.ss jolt-report-uncaught appends 'at file:line:col'
when an error propagates out. Covers joltc -e, joltc run <file>, and
load-string — every interpreted path. Top-level granularity, one set per
form; deeper frames come from the Phase 2 frame walk.
Runtime .ss only, no re-mint.
* Clojure stack traces via source registry + native frame walk
A direct-link build emits (jolt-register-source! short-name ns name file line)
once per fn def — at definition time, so zero per-call cost. On an uncaught
error the reporter walks Chez's native continuation frames (jolt-throw captures
the live continuation via call/cc; host conditions carry their own
&continuation), maps each frame's procedure name through the registry, and
prints a Clojure backtrace 'ns/name (file:line)'. Wired into both the cli and a
built binary's launcher.
Frames are keyed by the short munged fn name Chez actually reports (emit-fn's
letrec self-binding), not jv$ns$name; a cross-namespace collision degrades to
the bare frame name rather than a wrong attribution. The analyzer carries the
original form's position through defn macroexpansion onto the def node.
Calling a non-fn now throws a catchable ClassCastException (via jolt-throw)
naming the operator, instead of a raw Chez error.
Caveats (documented in source-registry.ss): names map only in direct-link/AOT
closed-world builds — the open-world -e/repl/run path falls back to the
top-level location; and pervasive TCO erases tail-call frames, so a mapped
trace shows only the non-tail spine. JOLT_DEBUG_FRAMES dumps raw frame names.
Re-mint (analyzer + backend); prelude byte-identical (direct-link off during
mint). Corpus rows certified, build-smoke asserts the trace.
* Propagate source position through macroexpansion
hc-expand-1 now carries the macro call form's :line/:column onto the top of a
list expansion that has none of its own (merged under any meta the macro set),
so errors and stack traces in macro-generated code point at the call site —
Clojure parity. The analyze recursion re-expands inner macros, so each level's
top form picks it up, matching the reference compiler. (meta (macroexpand-1
'(when x y))) now reports the call-site line.
A direct-link fn defined through a user macro (build-app's defguarded) registers
with a real line, so build-smoke's trace assertion covers macro-defined fns.
Runtime .ss (host-contract.ss) — no re-mint; selfhost holds.
Phase 3's optional items are deferred: :line-in-ex-data has no clean consumer
(it would pollute ex-data, break = and printing, and positions already surface
via the trace + top-level location), and Chez source-object emission is a large
backend change the jv$-name registry already sidesteps.
* Review fixes: registration key, thread-locals, debug flag timing
- Register a fn under the name Chez actually reports for its frame, not the def
name: a named fn literal whose name differs from the def (def foo (fn bar …))
is framed as 'bar', and an anonymous fn def (def foo (fn …)) as jv$ns$foo.
Both previously registered under the def name and so never appeared in traces.
- rdr-source-file / rdr-pos-cursor are thread parameters, so concurrent compiles
(futures, core.async) don't clobber each other's file/line attribution.
- Read JOLT_DEBUG_FRAMES at call time: a built binary evaluates top-level forms
at heap-build time, where a load-time getenv is always unset.
Re-mint (backend + reader); prelude byte-identical, selfhost holds.

Review found (< 1M 2M) worked but (min 1M 2M) threw — incoherent. Wire min/max
the same way as the other ops: value-position jolt-min/jolt-max shims (new in
seq.ss, added to core-value-procs) and call-position via bd-spec/bd-ops ->
jbd-min/jbd-max.
min/max return the original operand by value, not a coerced copy, matching
Clojure: (min 1M 2.0) -> 1M, (max 1M 2.0) -> 2.0, (min 1.50M 2M) -> 1.50M; a tie
keeps the second operand ((max 1.5M 1.50M) -> 1.50M). bigdec mixed with a flonum
in call position stays in the documented :any/contagion gap (value position
handles it). Re-mint; 6 more JVM-certified rows.
Shaking out tick's api and alpha.interval suites (api 353->359, interval
0->103 passing) cleared a set of general gaps:
- Named-zone DST. Zones resolved to a fixed representative offset, so
America/New_York in August read -05:00 not -04:00. Add US/EU DST rules
(compact transition-date math) and make instant<->zoned, the zone rules'
getOffset, and the zoned equality arm DST-aware.
- Nanosecond zoned/offset times. Instant is nanos but atZone/atOffset/
toInstant/withZoneSameInstant and Instant/parse went through epoch-ms,
truncating sub-ms. Route them through nanos.
- Locale month/day names. A formatter dropped its Locale; carry it and add
French names so MMM under Locale/FRENCH renders "mai".
- Callable records. A defrecord implementing clojure.lang.IFn (tick's
GeneralRelation) is now invokable: jolt-invoke dispatches to its inline
invoke method. Also give collections the Iterable host tag so a protocol
extended to Iterable matches vectors/seqs.
- Imported class short names. (:import [java.time ZonedDateTime]) then
(. ZonedDateTime parse s) resolved to nil; an otherwise-unresolved bare
Capitalized name that's a registered host class now resolves as a class.
- Data readers. A project's data_readers.{clj,cljc} is loaded into
*data-readers* (reader namespaces required eagerly); registered #tag
literals in source rewrite to (reader-fn 'form). clojure.core/read-string
now applies #inst/#uuid/#"regex" and *data-readers* like Clojure.
- Duration/between accepts zoned/offset date-times.
All runtime shims, no re-mint. docs/libraries.md: tick full pass + aero.
conj/assoc/dissoc/disj/pop/into and empty now thread the receiver's
metadata onto the result, matching Clojure (each op constructs a new
collection with meta() carried forward; coll.empty() is
EMPTY.withMeta(meta())). The metadata side-table is now weak so meta on
intermediate collections is reclaimed with them, and empty-list-t carries
an (unused) field so a metadata-bearing () is a distinct identity from the
shared singleton instead of leaking meta onto every ().
Unblocks metadata-driven walks (aero/integrant): (into (empty form) ...)
now preserves a vector/map/set's metadata, so a postwalk whose outer fn
reads (meta x) sees it.
Round 1 (correctness + dead code):
- Fix duplicate java.util.HashMap registration in host-static.ss: the alist
impl shadowed the hashtable ctor while leaving the hashtable methods bound,
so .keySet/.values/.remove/.clear crashed. Drop the alist version.
- Delete jolt-core/jolt/reader.clj: a 463-line dead duplicate reader, never
required or compiled (the live reader is host/chez/reader.ss) and drifted.
- Remove dead defs: ir/rt + :rt op + unused ir/op; the Janet branch in
clojure.edn/drain-reader; a shadowed first clojure.string/trim-newline;
io.ss jolt-char-array + the reader def-var (both shadowed by natives-array);
concurrency.ss jolt-future-done?*; compile-eval.ss jolt-analyze-emit.
Round 2 (perf + determinism):
- emit-quoted-map-value / quoted sets now emit sorted by emitted text instead
of host-hash order, which isn't stable across Chez versions (jolt-8479).
- jolt-into folds through a transient, so into/vec/mapv/filterv onto a vector
are O(n) instead of O(n^2).
- deps resolve-deps walks its queue with an index cursor (was subvec-per-pop).
- async channel and agent action queues use amortized-O(1) FIFOs; ArrayList is
backed by a growable vector (O(1) add/get) instead of a list.
Rename src/jolt -> stdlib (the runtime-loaded layer; jolt-core stays the
seed-baked layer) and update the loader / emit-image / doc paths. Drop dead
code: the spike/ experiments, the duplicate clojuredocs-export.edn (json moves
to tools/), the Janet-era jolt.http binding, and the orphaned
persistent_vector.clj whose ns/path didn't even match.
Strip porting residue from comments and docstrings across host/chez, jolt-core,
stdlib, tests, and docs: internal issue ids, "Phase N" markers, and the "vs
Janet" historical exposition, leaving present-tense descriptions and the real
JVM-Clojure semantic contrasts. Same pass over the corpus suite labels. The seed
is unchanged (docstrings/comments aren't emitted), so the self-host fixpoint and
corpus are untouched.
Port tools/spec_coverage.py off the dead janet probe to bin/joltc and regenerate
coverage.md; drop the dead :host/janet rule from certify.clj and regenerate the
conformance profile. Add docs/host-interop.md (the JVM shims and how to register
your own host class from a library) and a writing-style note in CLAUDE.md.
Stabilize the four racy concurrency corpus cases (future-cancel and agent
send/send-off): give the future a sleeping body and the agent a slow action, so
cancel reliably catches an in-flight future and deref reliably reads the
pre-update snapshot. They certify deterministically now, so drop their :flaky
allowlist entries and the orphaned legend.
Shaking the ring-app example's real library stack out against jolt surfaced a
batch of divergences from JVM Clojure, the biggest being evaluation order.
backend_scheme: call and recur arguments were emitted as bare Scheme operands,
so Chez's unspecified (right-to-left) order won out. Clojure evaluates left to
right, which selmer's reader loop relies on: (recur (add-node ... rdr) (read-char
rdr)) consumed a char early and dropped the first chars of every {{tag}}. Bind
operands to fresh temps in a let* (only when two or more can have side effects,
so hot calls over locals/consts stay un-wrapped). emit-ordered already did this
for collection literals; generalize it.
host-contract: syntax-quote now resolves the alias part of a qualified symbol
(impl/foo -> clojure.tools.logging.impl/foo) instead of leaving it bare, which
limped along via short-name matching until two loaded namespaces (reitit.impl,
clojure.tools.logging.impl) shared the short name and it broke.
collections: key-hash masks with bitwise-and, not fxand — jolt-hash is set!-
decorated per type (records return their own hash) and Chez's equal-hash can be a
bignum, so a key's hash isn't always a fixnum.
seq: even?/odd? handle bignums (JVM accepts any integer; the fxand crashed).
records: Keyword/Symbol .sym/.getName/.toString (honeysql's :clj branch reads
(.sym k)); Throwable .getMessage/.toString over a Chez condition.
host-static: __register-class-ctor!/__register-class-statics! so a host shim
(reitit.trie-jolt) can mirror a Java class.
natives-str: String.intern returns the string.
sqlite: jdbc.core fetch/fetch-one kebab-case column keys (the jolt-lang/db
convention; created_at -> :created-at).
io: a relative io/file path resolves against JOLT_PWD (the user's cwd), not the
repo root the launcher cd'd to — matches JVM cwd semantics, so config.edn loads.
cli: render an uncaught jolt throw (ex-info message + ex-data, or a condition)
instead of Chez's opaque "non-condition value" dump.
A vector's seq is now a real chunked-seq (chunked-seq? true), matching Clojure/
CLJS. Each vector-seq cell carries its backing vector + element index as two
cseq fields (cvec/ci, no extra allocation vs the old lazy cell), so:
- chunk-first hands out a 32-element block (a pvec slice), chunk-rest is the
seq at the next block boundary — the ChunkedSeq contract (chunk-first ++
chunk-rest == the seq);
- reduce/transduce take a fast path that walks the backing vector by index in
a tight loop with no per-element seq cells (reduce over a 1M-vector ~0.4s).
The seq cell stays a cseq, so first/rest/count/printing and the ~26 cseq?
dispatch sites are untouched. The eager chunk-buffer model (chunk-buffer/chunk/
chunk-cons) is preserved for the round-trip case. No seed change (runtime only).
(reduce f init (reify clojure.lang.IReduceInit (reduce [_ f i] ...))) tried to
seq the reify and threw 'not seqable'. When the coll is a reify carrying a reduce
method, drive the reduction through it. Corpus 2693->2694.
Rephrase comments that pointed at deleted Janet files (emit.janet, the seed
sources, 'the Janet back end punts ...') to present-tense descriptions of the
Chez behavior. Comment/docstring-only; the self-host fixpoint is unchanged
(comments don't affect the compiled seed).
Delete five files that were Janet-host shims with no Chez path: clojure.java.io
(provided natively by host/chez/io.ss), and jolt.{nrepl,png,interop,shell}
(the janet.* bridge, os/shell, janet.net — none exist on Chez).
jolt-cf1q.6
jolt was all-flonum (one :number type, inherited from Janet whose only number
type is a double). The Chez runtime has a full numeric tower, so the zero-Janet
path now carries it = JVM Clojure semantics:
(/ 1 2) => 1/2 (exact Ratio, was 0.5)
(integer? 3) => true (integer? 3.0) => false (float? 3.0) => true
(ratio? (/ 1 2)) => true (= 3 3.0) => false (== 3 3.0) => true
(+ 1 2) => 3 (exact) (/ 1.0 2) => 0.5 (double)
jolt= was already exactness-aware (values.ss) and == is value-equality, so
=/== match the JVM split. The reader preserves exactness (integer literals exact,
a/b ratios exact rationals, decimals/exponents flonums); backend_scheme emit-const
renders exact ints/ratios and flonums faithfully; the value-position arithmetic,
count, int, compare, bit ops, parseLong, string .length/.indexOf, range,
timestamps, and array bytes return exact integers (= JVM int/long) instead of
coercing to flonum. double/parseDouble/clojure.math floor|ceil|signum stay double.
Only the zero-Janet path carries the tower (the Janet reader loses exactness into
a double before emit). The prelude/all-flonum path is unaffected for compiled code;
the runtime reader is shared, so a couple of all-flonum reader assertions become
value (==) assertions. ~16 numeric corpus cases now give the JVM tower value vs the
Janet-era :expected and are allowlisted as tower divergences (Chez == reference
JVM) pending the corpus flip to JVM (jolt-ecz0). No BigDecimal type (1M).
Re-minted. zero-janet 2682 (floor 2698->2682, the reclassified tower cases), 0 new
divergences; fixpoint 10/10, bootstrap 6/6, spine 35/35, cli 49/49; Janet gate 155
files 0 failed.
Native Chez shims for clojure.core fns that live in the Janet seed but had none
on the zero-Janet spine (they resolved to nil -> "not a fn"):
- host/chez/natives-parity.ss: hash / hash-combine / hash-ordered-coll /
hash-unordered-coll (24-bit masked like core_extra), transient?, rseq (vectors +
sorted colls), cat (transducer).
- jolt-invoke now dispatches a TRANSIENT vec/map/set as a fn (callable on the JVM):
((transient [10 20 30]) 1) -> 20.
- ns.ss: ns-resolve, ns-imports, remove-ns, intern, alias, ns-unalias, refer,
ns-refers, refer-clojure, alter-meta!, reset-meta!, and a real ns-aliases (was a
stub returning {}).
- runtime (require ...)/(use ...) now register :as/:refer into the Chez ns tables
(was a no-op). The Chez analyzer already pre-registers at analyze time, but when
the JANET analyzer compiled the form (prelude path) the Chez tables stayed empty,
so ns-aliases/ns-resolve over an alias diverged — this fixes both paths.
Seed unchanged (overlay doesn't reference these at mint time). zero-Janet corpus
2567->2600, prelude 2557->2590, 0 new divergences on either; Janet gate + JVM cert
green. Filed jolt-vgrp for the pre-existing var-get-of-scalar-native-op quirk.
jolt-cf1q.7
Point the Chez-HOSTED analyzer at the full parity corpus (read -> analyze ->
emit -> eval, all on Chez, no Janet) and close the divergences so the
self-hosted compiler is faithful: 0 divergences, 2159/2494 pass.
Keystone: the on-Chez emitter ran with prelude-mode off, so every call to a
non-native clojure.core fn tripped the "unsupported stdlib fn" out-of-subset
guard. The zero-Janet spine always has the full prelude loaded, so turn
prelude mode on in compile-eval.ss (22% -> 84% pass on a sample).
Faithfulness fixes (each was the Chez host/reader diverging from the Janet
analyzer; fixed in the keeper, not the seed):
- emit-const read a char's codepoint via (get v :ch) — the Janet rep; on Chez a
char is native. Route through a new form-char-code host-contract fn (41 cases).
- next over a lazy seq returned the empty-list terminator (truthy), not nil, so
butlast and other (if (next s) ...) loops ran one step too far — broke
some->/some->>/cond->>.
- reader: radix literals (2r1010/16rFF/36rZ), #^ deprecated metadata, ^meta on
collections (lowers to a runtime with-meta form like the Janet reader),
map-literal source order (values eval left-to-right), and nested syntax-quote
over a literal collapses at read time.
- keyword "a/b" splits into ns/name like the seed (destructure {:keys [x/y]}).
- form-syntax-quote-lower implemented on Chez (was a throwing stub).
7 divergences allowlisted: the same print-method-multimethod / host-class set
the prelude gate defers. 328 crashes remain = shared runtime breadth (host
interop, missing core fns, eval/load-string) deferred to Phase 4 / jolt-r8ku,
not compiler faithfulness.
Gate + speedup: test/chez/run-corpus-zero-janet.janet (floor 2159). Its batched
runner (driver/eval-corpus-zero-janet) runs every case in ONE chez process —
load the runtime once, guard + reset the user namespace per case — instead of a
fresh process per case: 1379s -> 1.6s.
spine-test 35/35; Janet gate 151/0; prelude parity 2295/2494 unchanged, 0 new
divergences.
list? was nil on Chez because one cseq record backs both lists and lazy/
realized seqs. Add a list? marker field (cseq v2) set only on the HEAD cell
of a list -- (list ...), quoted list literals, cons, reverse, conj onto a
list. rest/next/seq/map therefore yield unmarked seq cells, so they are
seqs and not list?, matching the seed (where rest-of-a-list is a non-list
seq). Empty () is treated as a list.
vector?: drop the map-entry exclusion. Clojure's MapEntry implements
IPersistentVector and the seed agrees -- (vector? (first {:a 1})) is true.
Only dot-forms' coll dispatch read jolt-vector?, where a 2-vector entry is
correct.
clojure.walk + clojure.template join the prelude stdlib tier. The driver
now evals each stdlib ns's requires -- and the ns form's (:require ...)
clause -- so an aliased ref (template's walk/postwalk-replace) resolves at
emit time instead of lowering to an Unknown class host-static. ns forms are
evaled for that side effect but not emitted, so the runtime *ns* doesn't
leak to the last stdlib ns.
Parity 2163 -> 2176, 0 new divergences. New test/chez/_walk.janet 39/39.
The lazy-seq macro expands to (make-lazy-seq (fn* [] (coll->cells body)))
and lazy-cat to (concat (lazy-seq c) ...); both seed natives were nil on
the prelude, so every overlay fn built on lazy-seq — repeat/iterate/
cycle/dedupe/take-nth/keep/interpose/reductions/map-indexed/distinct/
interleave/tree-seq(->flatten)/partition-all/lazy-cat — hit apply-jolt-nil.
lazy-bridge.ss bridges to the cseq model: a jolt-lazyseq is a deferred
seq forced once by an extended jolt-seq; jolt-cons defers a lazyseq tail
so an infinite (repeat/iterate/cycle) stays lazy. A lazyseq is a new
value type, so the dispatchers that don't route through jolt-seq learn it
(sequential? for =/hash, plus count/empty?/nth/printers) or a raw
unrealized lazyseq escapes — the corpus compares (= [1 3 5] (take-nth …))
against it directly.
seq.ss: jolt-concat is now fully lazy (the rest isn't forced until the
first coll is exhausted), so a self-referential lazy-cat — fib =
(lazy-cat [0 1] (map + (rest fib) fib)) — no longer memoizes its tail as
empty by reading fib before its def binds.
Prelude parity 1837 -> 1886, 0 new divergences. Floor raised to 1886.
set/hash-map/hash-set/array-map/rand resolved to jolt-nil on the prelude
(the apply-jolt-nil crash bucket) — the pmap/pset ctors already existed in
collections.ss, just bind the public clojure.core names to them.
Map entries are now a distinct type: a pvec carries an ent flag (default #f),
so an entry equals its [k v] vector and walks like one (nth/count/seq/=/hash/
print read only v) but is not vector? and is map-entry? — matching Clojure's
MapEntry. seqing a map produces flagged entries; vector? excludes them. This
unblocks key/val (overlay fns gated on map-entry?) and the every? map-entry?
cases.
Prelude parity 1534 -> 1593, 0 new divergences. jolt-agw6.
The dominant prelude-parity crash bucket was 'apply non-procedure jolt-nil':
core fns calling seed-native seq fns (core_coll.janet) that have no Chez RT
shim, so var-deref returns jolt-nil. A static scan of the assembled prelude
turned up 52 referenced-but-undefined clojure.core names.
host/chez/natives-seq.ss shims the safe seq fns over the existing seq layer:
mapcat, take-while, drop-while, partition (collection arities only — the 1-arg
transducer forms are jolt-kxsr), and sort (compare default; a comparator may
return a 3-way number or a boolean less-than). reduced/reduced? is a jolt-reduced
record in seq.ss that reduce short-circuits on and deref unwraps, so unreduced
works. identical? = jolt= (the seed's definition).
Deferred list?: a Chez lazy seq and a list are both cseq, so it can't be told
apart without a distinct list type — a real divergence risk.
Parity 1407 -> 1467/2497, 0 new divergences. emit-test 263/263.
Emit a :quote node by reconstructing the raw reader form as RT constructor
calls: symbol -> jolt-symbol, list (array) -> jolt-list, vector (tuple) ->
jolt-vector, map -> jolt-hash-map, set -> jolt-hash-set, scalars via emit-const.
The runtime value of a quote is just that literal data (the interpreter returns
the reader form verbatim).
Quote exposed a latent seq.ss bug: empty map/filter results were jolt-nil, but
Clojure's (map f []) is an empty seq, so (= () (map f [])) must be true. Return
jolt-empty-list (which seqs back to nil, so it's still a valid lazy-tail
terminator) instead — matching jolt-take/drop/rest/list.
Prelude emit reach 334 -> 342/355. Subset probe 632 -> 664/664 compiled, 0
divergences (quote + the seq fix pull 32 corpus cases into the subset). emit-test
110/110 (added 16 quote cases). corpus.edn regenerated (the 3 malformed-catch
spec rows). Full gate green.
Brings up the seq layer on the Chez runtime. host/chez/seq.ss adds one
lazy-capable node (cseq) that models Clojure's list, cons, and lazy seq -
all print as (...), all sequential-= to each other and to vectors. seq
coerces any seqable (vector/map/set/string/list/seq/nil) to a cseq or nil;
the empty seq is a distinct value printing () (rest of a 1-elem coll is ()
not nil, seq of empty is nil). Leaf ops: first/rest/next/seq/cons/list,
reverse/last, map/filter/remove/reduce/into, range/take/drop/concat/apply,
keys/vals, plus nth/peek/pop extended over seqs. map/filter/reduce apply
their fn arg through jolt-invoke, so a procedure, keyword, or collection all
work as the fn.
Dynamic IFn dispatch: a keyword/vector/coll held in a local (let binding or
fn param) and called as a fn now routes through the jolt-invoke fallback
(procedure? -> apply; keyword/coll -> lookup). The emitter only routes a
:local callee that isn't a known procedure - a named fn's self-recursion
name stays a direct call, so the fib hot path is untouched. Closes the 3
ex-known IFn divergences.
emit.janet: seq/pred ops added to native-ops with arity gates; value-position
clojure.core refs resolve to the RT procedure (native-ops names one for each),
with +/-/*// routed to flonum-coercing wrappers so higher-order arithmetic
((reduce + [])) keeps the all-double model. values.ss: cross-type sequential
=/hash so a vector and a list of the same elements are jolt= and hash alike.
rt.ss: printer learns seqs; top-level nil prints as the empty string (jolt -e
str-style). Fixed latent bug: (conj nil ...) now builds a list, not a vector.
Gates: emit-test 69/69 (fib/mandelbrot/collections/seq/IFn parity vs the jolt
oracle, fib(30) ~24ms unchanged). Subset probe 433/436 -> 595/595 compiled,
0 divergences (was 3 known), 2060/2655 out of subset. Full run-tests green
(125 files, conformance + suites included).
