2016-09-02Fix overridden BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
The filters in a list comprehension can be guard expressions or an ordinary expressions. If a guard expression is used as a filter, an exception will basically mean the same as 'false': t() -> L = [{some_tag,42},an_atom], [X || X <- L, element(1, X) =:= some_tag] %% Returns [{some_tag,42}] On the other hand, if an ordinary expression is used as a filter, there will be an exception: my_element(N, T) -> element(N, T). t() -> L = [{some_tag,42},an_atom], [X || X <- L, my_element(1, X) =:= some_tag] %% Causes a 'badarg' exception when element(1, an_atom) is evaluated It has been allowed for several releases to override a BIF with a local function. Thus, if we define a function called element/2, it will be called instead of the BIF element/2 within the module. We must use the "erlang:" prefix to call the BIF. Therefore, the following code is expected to work the same way as in our second example above: -compile({no_auto_import,[element/2]}). element(N, T) -> erlang:element(N, T). t() -> L = [{some_tag,42},an_atom], [X || X <- L, element(1, X) =:= some_tag]. %% Causes a 'badarg' exception when element(1, an_atom) is evaluated But the compiler refuses to compile the code with the following diagnostic: call to local/imported function element/2 is illegal in guard
2016-09-02Don't crash when obsolete guard overrides local functionBjörn Gustavsson
The compiler would crash in v3_codegen when trying to compile the following code: is_port(_) -> false. foo(P) when port(P) -> ok. We *could* have the compiler interpret the code as: is_port(_) -> false. foo(P) when erlang:is_port(P) -> ok. But that would encourage using the obsolete form of the guard tests. Note that the following code is illegal: is_port(_) -> false. foo(P) when is_port(P) -> ok. It produces the following diagnostic: call to local/imported function is_port/1 is illegal in guard Therefore, we should refuse to compile the code.

2016-05-02stdlib: Fix linting of map key variablesBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Map keys cannot be bound and then used in parallel matching. Example: #{ K := V } = #{ k := K } = M. This is illegal if 'K' is not already bound.

2016-01-20stdlib: Update erl_parse(3)Hans Bolinder
Calls to map_anno(), fold_anno(), and mapfold_anno() with lists of erl_parse trees have been replaced. Those functions accept lists of erl_parse trees, but it was not the intention when the functions were introduced, and it is not documented.

erl_lint:format_error/1 would crash with a function error if conflicting types were given. That was most easily noticed in the shell: Eshell V7.0.3 (abort with ^G) 1> <<0/integer-binary>>. *** ERROR: Shell process terminated! *** Noticed-by: Aleksei Magusev

* josevalim/jv-annotate-form-type: Annotate used types in erl_lint OTP-12800
2015-05-27Annotate used types in erl_lintJosé Valim
This is a follow up to commit b5ee5c6. Similar to function calls, we also need to annotate used types on call site since this information is used later on when showing undefined type errors. Notice we don't need to annotate the type export because it is an attribute and those are always properly annotated.

* josevalim/jv-annotate-form: Only annotate forms when linting in the compiler OTP-12772
2015-05-22Only annotate forms when linting in the compilerJosé Valim
A lot of time spent on linting is due to eval_file_attribute/2 function that recursively traverses all the AST, annotating the file name on the AST nodes. This traversal happens so it is easier to add errors and warnings later on by simply introspecting the node. This patch changes eval_file_attribute/2 to only annotate forms (i.e. attributes and functions) and rely on the #lint record to keep the proper file information (which it already did before this patch). To summarize, both pre scan and pos scan will use the annotated file attribute in forms, however form/2 already maintains the proper file in #lint, which we pass around when retrieving the location information. After this patch, linting of a regular erlang module with 500LOC became twice faster when measured with eprof.
2015-05-21Remove final (?) vestiges of support for parameterized modulesBjörn Gustavsson
Parameterized modules were removed in cdf8060868575, but a few vestiges still remained in erl_lint.
2015-05-14Cache nowarn_bif_clash functions in erl_lintJosé Valim
When compiling parser files, because they rely heavily on inline annotations, retrieving the nowarn_bif_clash information from the compiler options is expensive. This patch stores nowarn_bif_clash in the lint record. By using erlc +'{eprof,lint_module}' when compiling the erlang parser, we noticed the time spent on nowarn_function/2 reduced from 30% to 0.01%.

2014-08-22stdlib: erl_lint Map key variablesBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
2014-08-02Rewrite merge of clause variable tables (in case, try, etc)Anthony Ramine
erl_lint:icrt_export/4 has been rewritten to make the code really follow the scoping rules of Erlang, and not just in most situations by accident. * The function should not depend on calling unused_vars/3 because that function does not return variables which begins with an underscore, something that only matters when emitting warnings. This could cause a compiler crash if such a variable was reused afterwards. * The variable tables from each clause are first merged together, lists:merge/1 is safe to use because they are orddicts and thus already sorted. This list is then traversed parallelly to the old variable table, again taking advantage of their sorted order. * The function does not emit warnings itself, there is no need to pass around the lint state. In the same vein, vtunsafe/3 has been rewritten to do more things by itself, given that all of its calls were similar. Finally, compiled-out code has been removed. * This reverts the code in 9ce148b1059e4da746a11f1d80a653340216c468, which fixed the compiler crash and made erl_lint remember unsafe variables, but forget about unused variables in the process. * Other places of the code which relied on the old clunky behaviour were also updated: unused and unsafe old variables are forgotten when merging fun clauses and boolean shortcircuiting operators do not rely on icrt_export/3 anymore.

Types are represented by quadruples {type, LINE, Name, Args}, but maps were represented by five-tuples {type, LINE, map_field_assoc, Dom, Range}. Note: this is *not* about the quadruples used for representing expressions, {map_field_assoc,L,K,V}.
