A bug is fixed, but there are more problems.
Modify erl_types.erl like this:
-define(EXPAND_LIMIT, 500).
and bogus warnings are output (again).
Callbacks and specs are compared (subtype) in dialyzer_behaviour. If
they are expanded to different depths, then invalid warnings can be
generated.

Opaque singleton keys have the unfortunate property, unlike any other
singleton type, to overlap with other singleton types that do not have
the same internal representation. Therefore, we must not keep opaque
singletons in the Pairs list in a map type.

t_subtract/2 would break its postcondition by always returning the
underapproximation none() when given a variable on the right hand side.
This broke map type parsing, since it relied on t_subtract/2 to tell it
when map keys would shadow each other.
|
|
Opaque keys in maps broke an assumption in
erl_types:mapmerge_otherv/3 (that the infinimum of a singleton type and
some other type would either be none() or that same singleton type),
causing a case_clause crash.
|

dialyzer_typesig:traverse/3 would perform an unsafe optimisation when
given a cons pattern that contained a map and could be folded into a
literal with cerl:fold_literal/1. In this case, when traversing the map
a type variable would be generated, but this variable would be dropped
by the erl_types:t_cons/2 constructor by in turn calling t_sup(),
producing the overapproximation any(). However, in this particular case,
dialyzer_typesig:traverse/3 is not allowed to overapproximate, since its
result is used in an EQ-constraint.
Although erl_types:t_tuple/1 does not overapproximate like t_cons/2,
which makes the bug unlikely to affect tuples too, the fix was
nevertheless applied defensively to the case of tuples as well.
Also, fix a bug where dialyzer_utils:refold_pattern/1 would generate
syntax nodes with two {label, _} attributes.

This is analogous to the case of nil. Since #{} is a base-case of almost
all map types, contract and success typing sharing #{} does not mean
much, and is often sign of a violation.
|

mk_constraint_list/2 was simplifying (C OR TriviallyTrue) to (C), which
is obviously wrong.
|
|
The assumption that 'try' nodes were only used to wrap entire guards is
no longer true.
We're still swallowing warnings when the handler returns successfully.
Unfortunately, bind_guard/5 would need to be refactored to return a new
state in order to generate those warnings.

Dialyzer relies heavily on the assumption that the type of a literal
that is used as a pattern is the type of any value that can match that
pattern. For maps, that is not true, and it was causing bad analysis
results. A new help function dialyzer_utils:refold_pattern/1 identifies
maps in literal patterns, and unfolds and labels them, allowing them to
be properly analysed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using the new type syntax, we can specify which keys are required, and
which are optional in a way Dialyzer could use.

The type of a map is represented as a three-tuple {Pairs, DefaultKey,
DefaultValue}. DefaultKey and DefaultValue are types. Pairs is a list of
three-tuples {Key, mandatory | optional, Value}, where Key and Value are
types. All types Key must be singleton, or "known at compile time," as
the EEP put it. Examples:
#{integer()=>list()} {[], integer(), list()}
#{a=>char(), b=>atom()} {[{a, optional, char()},
{b, optional, atom()}],
none(), none()}
map() {[], any(), any()}
A more formal description of the representation and its invariants can
be found in erl_types.erl
Special thanks to Daniel S. McCain (@dsmccain) that co-authored a very
early version of this with me back in April 2014, although only the
singleton type logic remains from that version.

As a first step to removing the test_server application as
as its own separate application, change the inclusion of
test_server.hrl to an inclusion of ct.hrl and remove the
inclusion of test_server_line.hrl.

dialyzer: Correct byte_size() and comparisons
Conflicts:
lib/hipe/cerl/erl_bif_types.erl

The argument of byte_size() is a bitstring().
The code in erl_bif_types that finds cases where comparisons always
return true or false is corrected when it comes to maps and bit
strings.

dialyzer: Fix a bug concerning the option 'plt_remove'
|
|
[James Fish:]
Dialyzer always asserts that files and directories passed in its
options exist. Therefore it is not possible to remove a beam/module
from a PLT when the beam file no longer exists. Dialyzer should not to
check files exist on disk when removing from the PLT.

If a behaviour module contains an non-exported function with the same name as
one of the behaviour's callbacks, the callback info was inadvertently deleted
from the PLT as the dialyzer_plt:delete_list/2 function was cleaning up the
callback table. This bug was reported by Brujo Benavides.
Fixes ERL-72 bug report.

Record field types have been modified due to commit 8ce35b2:
"Take out automatic insertion of 'undefined' from typed record fields".
|
|
Background
-----------
In record fields with a type declaration but without an initializer, the
Erlang parser inserted automatically the singleton type 'undefined' to
the list of declared types, if that value was not present there.
I.e. the record declaration:
-record(rec, {f1 :: float(),
f2 = 42 :: integer(),
f3 :: some_mod:some_typ()}).
was translated by the parser to:
-record(rec, {f1 :: float() | 'undefined',
f2 = 42 :: integer(),
f3 :: some_mod:some_typ() | 'undefined'}).
The rationale for this was that creation of a "dummy" #rec{} record
should not result in a warning from dialyzer that e.g. the implicit
initialization of the #rec.f1 field violates its type declaration.
Problems
---------
This seemingly innocent action has some unforeseen consequences.
For starters, there is no way for programmers to declare that e.g. only
floats make sense for the f1 field of #rec{} records when there is no
`obvious' default initializer for this field. (This also affects tools
like PropEr that use these declarations produced by the Erlang parser to
generate random instances of records for testing purposes.)
It also means that dialyzer does not warn if e.g. an is_atom/1 test or
something more exotic like an atom_to_list/1 call is performed on the
value of the f1 field.
Similarly, there is no way to extend dialyzer to warn if it finds record
constructions where f1 is not initialized to some float.
Last but not least, it is semantically problematic when the type of the
field is an opaque type: creating a union of an opaque and a structured
type is very problematic for analysis because it fundamentally breaks
the opacity of the term at that point.
Change
-------
To solve these problems the parser will not automatically insert the
'undefined' value anymore; instead the user has the option to choose the
places where this value makes sense (for the field) and where it does
not and insert the | 'undefined' there manually.
Consequences of this change
----------------------------
This change means that dialyzer will issue a warning for all places
where records with uninitialized fields are created and those fields have
a declared type that is incompatible with 'undefined' (e.g. float()).
This warning can be suppressed easily by adding | 'undefined' to the
type of this field. This also adds documentation that the user really
intends to create records where this field is uninitialized.

The recently added module erl_anno can no longer handle

Fix the range type of erlang:abs/1.

Opaque recursive parameters are expanded faster.

Thanks to ILYA Khlopotov for pointing the bug out.

The example is provided by James Fish in
http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2014-December/082204.html.
Note that warnings with text such as "the _ variable breaks
opaqueness" are still possible.

Re-insert logic for `erlang:make_fun/3` in `erl_bif_types`. It had
been removed in bd941f5 while type spec-ing `erlang.erl`. Type spec in
`erlang.erl` cannot express arity of returned fun based on value of
argument hence re-introducing logic in `erl_bif_types`.
Re-definition of logic in `erl_bif_types` follows approach in 9d870a0.

Comparing two operands for (in)equality is allowed if both operands
are of the same unknown opaque type. Since OTP 17, there is a warning
if the types of the operands have nothing in common (this cannot
happen before OTP 17). However, the warning says there is a test
between opaque types, which is wrong. The warning now states that the
comparison cannot evaluate to 'true', which is more consistent.
|
|
In OTP 17 it is possible to mix types such as dict:dict() and
dict:dict(_, _) outside of the dict module (and similarly for some
other opaque types in STDLIB), but the results are unfortunately
possibly invalid warnings in users' code. In OTP 18 parameterized
opaque types with the same name but with different number of
parameters are no longer compatible when seen from outside of the
module where the types are declared.
The types in STDLIB have been updated accordingly; for instance
-opaque dict() :: dict(_, _).
has been replaced by
-type dict() :: dict(_, _).
|
|
The check that a modified type of a field is a subtype of the declared
type has been moved outside of the expansion of forms to avoid loops.
|
|
* Mention the option 'check_plt' among gui() options.
* No longer check a PLT twice when the analysis type is 'plt_check'.
* No longer raise a case_clause error when checking a PLT finds warnings.
Thanks to James Fish.
