Fix (implemented, +**uncommitted on branch `fix-untyped-object-export-degradation`, not +pushed, no PR**): print the structural shape via the already-existing +(previously dead-code) `printObjectType` helper when the storage type is a +`TupleType`/`ConstTupleType`/`ObjectStorageType`, falling back to bare +`object` only when it's genuinely opaque. Confirmed this alone fixes the +originally-described crash: the declaration now round-trips as +`let counterObj : {count:number, inc:() => void};` instead of +`object;`, and no longer hits the `mlir::cast` assert +at `MLIRGenInterfaces.cpp:312`. + +**But this does not make the untyped-export scenario work end-to-end - +verifying surfaced a fourth, deeper bug**: an untyped, method-bearing +object literal (`export var counterObj = {...}`, no annotation) is +auto-boxed as `ObjectType` (pointer-indirected) in the EXPORTING module, +per the object-literal-boxing rule from the #248/#249 arc. The printed +`{...}` text is a plain TS structural type-literal syntax with no way to +say "and this should be boxed" - there is no such TS source syntax, boxing +is purely an expression-shape heuristic applied to object LITERALS, never +to type ANNOTATIONS. So the IMPORTER, parsing that declaration as an +ordinary type annotation, reconstructs an UNBOXED `TupleType` - a +representation mismatch against the exporting module's actual boxed +global. Confirmed via WinDbg (same technique as the earlier bugs in this +file): crashes with a null-funcptr `call rax` DURING the +`A.counterObj` cast construction itself, before any method call +or field read - earlier/more fundamental than the clone-field-order or +width-coercion bugs above. + +Also independently reconfirmed via a same-module (no cross-module import +at all) repro that the width-coercion sharp edge noted above is real and +pre-existing: `{ count: 0, ... }` (integer literal, infers `s32`) cast to +an interface declaring `count: number` reads back +`4.94066e-324` (= the bit pattern of small int `1` misread as an 8-byte +double) after one `inc()` - not a NaN or a crash, silently wrong. Using a +float literal (`count: 0.0`, infers `number`/f64 directly, no +width-narrowing) avoids this specific bug and cast/mutate/read correctly +same-module - but does NOT avoid the boxing-mismatch crash above when +cross-module, since that one triggers before any field is ever touched. + +**Not yet investigated**: how to recover "boxed-ness" across the +`@dllimport` boundary for an untyped export. Two directions worth +comparing before picking one: (a) teach the declaration-EXPORT side to +emit some signal distinguishing "this var's type should reconstruct as +boxed `ObjectType`" (the printer alone can't invent new TS syntax for +this - would need either a compiler-internal-only declaration extension or +piggybacking on existing syntax in a way the ordinary parser still +accepts), or (b) teach `@dllimport` type RECONSTRUCTION (whichever code +turns a parsed type annotation into the `var`/`let`'s MLIR type during +declaration-file processing) to apply the same "structural type with +method members -> box as ObjectType" rule that literal EXPRESSIONS already +get, at least for declaration-only (no initializer) `@dllimport` bindings. +Direction (b) seems lower-risk (touches reconstruction, not the +established literal-boxing heuristic or wire format) but wasn't explored. +Sequencing note for whoever picks this up: this bug must be fixed BEFORE +the width-coercion one matters for the untyped-export cross-module case, +since it crashes strictly earlier in the same call path. + +**Follow-up (2026-07-20): confirmed the two directions are NOT symmetric.** +User hypothesized declaring an explicit intermediate `object`-typed +binding (`export let counterObj2: object = counterObj;`) might sidestep +the mismatch. Tested: it does not - it regresses to the ORIGINAL +`mlir::cast` assert (MLIRGenInterfaces.cpp:312) +instead of the boxing-mismatch crash. Reason: `counterObj2`'s own MLIR +storage type is genuinely opaque (widened away, not just a printer +omission - its declaration prints as bare `object` even WITH the printer +fix applied, confirming the concrete shape is erased at assignment, not +just at print time), so it has strictly LESS structural information than +`counterObj` itself, not more. This rules out "introduce an explicit +`object`-typed alias" as a workaround and confirms direction (b) above +(teach `@dllimport` reconstruction to box a method-bearing structural +type annotation, matching the literal-expression boxing rule) is the +right next thing to try - direction (a) (encode boxed-ness in the +declaration syntax itself) has no natural TS syntax to piggyback on, +as an `object`-typed annotation turns out to mean "opaque", not "boxed +structural". + +### `@boxed` decorator: direction (b) implemented, real progress, one more gap found (2026-07-20) + +Implemented direction (b): the exporter's declaration printer now emits a +sibling `@boxed` decorator (alongside the existing `@dllimport`) when the +variable's real MLIR type is `ObjectType` wrapping a concrete +`TupleType`/`ConstTupleType`/`ObjectStorageType` - +`DeclarationPrinter.cpp:printVariableDeclaration`. The importer's +`declarationMode` type resolution +(`MLIRGenVariables.cpp:mlirGen(VariableDeclaration...)`'s `initFunc` +lambda) reads a new `VariableClass::isBoxed` flag - set from the `@boxed` +decorator via the SAME `iterateDecorators` mechanism already used for +`@dllimport`/`used`/`atomic`/`volatile`/etc. - and wraps the resolved type +in `getObjectType(...)` to match. Deliberately scoped narrowly: only +`evaluateTypeAndInit` (the `declarationMode`-only path) boxes, NOT the +general `getType()` handling for `SyntaxKind::TypeLiteral` (used +everywhere - function params, return types, etc.) - boxing there +unconditionally would have regressed #257's explicitly-typed export test, +which relies on staying unboxed. + +**Verified real progress**: `export var counterObj = {...}` (untyped) no +longer hits the boxing-mismatch crash from the previous section - the +`A.counterObj` cast now constructs without crashing. Full +ctest suite: 730/730, unchanged - confirms #257's unboxed case is +unaffected (it never gets `@boxed`, since its type stays `TupleType`) and +the already-working boxed same-module/interface-typed-export cases (#251, +`export_object_literal_with_interface.ts`) are unaffected too. + +**Not fully working yet - one more gap found, narrower than before.** +Reading `A.counterObj.count`/calling `A.counterObj.inc()` directly (no +interface cast at all) still returns garbage / crashes with a null +funcptr call. Compared against the ALREADY-WORKING boxed cross-module +global (`export_object_literal_with_interface.ts`'s `A.counter`, an +INTERFACE-typed export): that one is a 16-byte INLINE value +(`!llvm.struct<(ptr, ptr)>` - the interface's own `{vtblPtr, thisVal}` +pair, stored directly in the global slot, both fields populated in place +by its `__cctor` via native `llvm.mlir.global_ctors`) and works reliably +(passing all session). `A.counterObj` (this fix's target) is instead a +SINGLE 8-byte POINTER (`!llvm.ptr` - the global slot holds only an +address to separately GC-heap-allocated data) - one more level of +indirection than any other boxed cross-module global this arc has +exercised. Not yet determined whether this is a genuine +constructor-ordering issue (does `A.counterObj__cctor` - confirmed to +exist, e.g. via `llvm.mlir.global_ctors ctors = [@A.counterObj__cctor], +priorities = [1000 : i32]` in the exporter's own IR - actually run before +the importer's `main()` reads the global?) or something else entirely +specific to single-pointer-indirection globals; `-gctors-as-method` alone +did not resolve it. Confirmed via WinDbg: `A.counterObj.inc()` crashes +with `rax=0`/`rip=0` (null function pointer call), same signature as the +earlier boxing-mismatch crash but at a different, later point (now inside +the read/call itself, not during cast construction) - so this genuinely +is forward progress, not the same bug recurring. + +**Shipped anyway** (user's call): the `@boxed` mechanism is real, +verified, idiom-consistent (mirrors the `@dllimport`/`used`/`atomic` +decorator pattern), and non-regressing even though the untyped-export +scenario still doesn't fully work end-to-end. No regression test added - +the scenario this was built for still fails, just later and for a +different reason. Whoever picks this up next should start with a WinDbg +breakpoint comparing the raw memory at `A.counterObj`'s global slot +right before vs. right after `main()` starts, to settle the +constructor-ordering question directly rather than inferring it. + ### Newly found: multi-method cross-module vtable slot bug (2026-07-19) Found while extending test coverage beyond this arc's fixes - every prior diff --git a/tslang/include/TypeScript/MLIRLogic/MLIRGenContext.h b/tslang/include/TypeScript/MLIRLogic/MLIRGenContext.h index 2a3ef2e34..cd9123e04 100644 --- a/tslang/include/TypeScript/MLIRLogic/MLIRGenContext.h +++ b/tslang/include/TypeScript/MLIRLogic/MLIRGenContext.h @@ -158,6 +158,13 @@ struct GenContext mlir::Type receiverType;
