For a rigid projection, recursively look at the self type's item bounds to fix the `associated_type_bounds` feature #120584

compiler-errors · 2024-02-02T17:52:44Z

Given a deeply nested rigid projection like <<<T as Trait1>::Assoc1 as Trait2>::Assoc2 as Trait3>::Assoc3, this PR adjusts both trait solvers to look at the item bounds for all of Assoc3, Assoc2, and Assoc1 in order to satisfy a goal. We do this because the item bounds for projections may contain relevant bounds for other nested projections when the associated_type_bounds (ATB) feature is enabled. For example:

#![feature(associated_type_bounds)]

trait Trait1 {
    type Assoc1: Trait2<Assoc2: Foo>;
    // Item bounds for `Assoc1` are:
    // `<Self as Trait1>::Assoc1: Trait2`
    // `<<Self as Trait1>::Assoc1 as Trait2>::Assoc2: Foo`
}

trait Trait2 {
    type Assoc2;
}

trait Foo {}

fn hello<T: Trait1>(x: <<T as Trait1>::Assoc1 as Trait2>::Assoc2) {
    fn is_foo(_: impl Foo) {}
    is_foo(x);
    // Currently fails with:
    // ERROR the trait bound `<<Self as Trait1>::Assoc1 as Trait2>::Assoc2: Foo` is not satisfied
}

This has been a long-standing place of brokenness for ATBs, and is also part of the reason why ATBs currently desugar so differently in various positions (i.e. sometimes desugaring to param-env bounds, sometimes desugaring to RPITs, etc). For example, in RPIT and TAIT position, impl Foo<Bar: Baz> currently desugars to impl Foo<Bar = impl Baz> because we do not currently take advantage of these nested item bounds if we desugared them into a single set of item bounds on the opaque. This is obviously both strange and unnecessary if we just take advantage of these bounds as we should.

Approach

This PR repeatedly peels off each projection of a given goal's self type and tries to match its item bounds against a goal, repeating with the self type of the projection. This is pretty straightforward to implement in the new solver, only requiring us to loop on the self type of a rigid projection to discover inner rigid projections, and we also need to introduce an extra probe so we can normalize them.

In the old solver, we can do essentially the same thing, however we rely on the fact that projections should be normalized already. This is obviously not always the case -- however, in the case that they are not fully normalized, such as a projection which has both infer vars and, we bail out with ambiguity if we hit an infer var for the self type.

Caveats

⚠️ In the old solver, this has the side-effect of actually stalling some higher-ranked trait goals of the form for<'a> <?0 as Tr<'a>>: Tr2. Because we stall them, they no longer are eagerly treated as error -- this cause some existing known-bug tests to go from fail -> pass.

I'm pretty unconvinced that this is a problem since we make code that we expect to pass in the new solver also pass in the old solver, though this obviously doesn't solve the full problem.

And then also...

We also adjust the desugaring of ATB to always desugar to a regular associated bound, rather than sometimes to an impl Trait except for when the ATB is present in a dyn Trait. We need to lower dyn Trait<Assoc: Bar> to dyn Trait<Assoc = impl Bar> because object types need all of their associated types specified.

I would also be in favor of splitting out the ATB feature and/or removing support for object types in order to stabilize just the set of positions for which the ATB feature is consistent (i.e. always elaborates to a bound).

please forbid its use in trait objects, they are fundamentally different from other positions, user should write dyn Trait<Item = impl Trait> instead. Either in this PR or a separate one.

some style nits, then r=me. From what I can tell this cannot affect stable code.

However; I would propose that we try to extend the "where-bound to item_bound transform" to also consider where bounds whose self type is a projection whose self type is an associated type of the trait:

trait Trait
where
    Self::Assoc: Clone
{
    type Assoc;
}

fn foo<T: Trait>(x: &T::Assoc) -> T::Assoc {
    x.clone()
}

trait Trait2
where
    Self::Assoc: Iterator,
    <Self::Assoc as Iterator>::Item: Clone
{
    type Assoc;
}

fn foo2<T: Trait2>(x: &<T::Assoc as Iterator>::Item) -> <T::Assoc as Iterator>::Item {
    x.clone()
}

This feels very much desirable to me

…li-obk Stabilize associated type bounds (RFC 2289) This PR stabilizes associated type bounds, which were laid out in [RFC 2289]. This gives us a shorthand to express nested type bounds that would otherwise need to be expressed with nested `impl Trait` or broken into several `where` clauses. ### What are we stabilizing? We're stabilizing the associated item bounds syntax, which allows us to put bounds in associated type position within other bounds, i.e. `T: Trait<Assoc: Bounds...>`. See [RFC 2289] for motivation. In all position, the associated type bound syntax expands into a set of two (or more) bounds, and never anything else (see "How does this differ[...]" section for more info). Associated type bounds are stabilized in four positions: * **`where` clauses (and APIT)** - This is equivalent to breaking up the bound into two (or more) `where` clauses. For example, `where T: Trait<Assoc: Bound>` is equivalent to `where T: Trait, <T as Trait>::Assoc: Bound`. * **Supertraits** - Similar to above, `trait CopyIterator: Iterator<Item: Copy> {}`. This is almost equivalent to breaking up the bound into two (or more) `where` clauses; however, the bound on the associated item is implied whenever the trait is used. See rust-lang#112573/rust-lang#112629. * **Associated type item bounds** - This allows constraining the *nested* rigid projections that are associated with a trait's associated types. e.g. `trait Trait { type Assoc: Trait2<Assoc2: Copy>; }`. * **opaque item bounds (RPIT, TAIT)** - This allows constraining associated types that are associated with the opaque without having to *name* the opaque. For example, `impl Iterator<Item: Copy>` defines an iterator whose item is `Copy` without having to actually name that item bound. The latter three are not expressible in surface Rust (though for associated type item bounds, this will change in rust-lang#120752, which I don't believe should block this PR), so this does represent a slight expansion of what can be expressed in trait bounds. ### How does this differ from the RFC? Compared to the RFC, the current implementation *always* desugars associated type bounds to sets of `ty::Clause`s internally. Specifically, it does *not* introduce a position-dependent desugaring as laid out in [RFC 2289], and in particular: * It does *not* desugar to anonymous associated items in associated type item bounds. * It does *not* desugar to nested RPITs in RPIT bounds, nor nested TAITs in TAIT bounds. This position-dependent desugaring laid out in the RFC existed simply to side-step limitations of the trait solver, which have mostly been fixed in rust-lang#120584. The desugaring laid out in the RFC also added unnecessary complication to the design of the feature, and introduces its own limitations to, for example: * Conditionally lowering to nested `impl Trait` in certain positions such as RPIT and TAIT means that we inherit the limitations of RPIT/TAIT, namely lack of support for higher-ranked opaque inference.

This last point motivates why this PR is *not* stabilizing support for associated type bounds in `dyn` types, e.g, `dyn Assoc<Item: Bound>`. Why?

…ays, r=lcnr Make inductive cycles always ambiguous This makes inductive cycles always result in ambiguity rather than be treated like a stack-dependent error. This has some interactions with specialization, and so breaks a few UI tests that I don't agree should've ever worked in the first place, and also breaks a handful of crates in a way that I don't believe is a problem. On the bright side, it puts us in a better spot when it comes to eventually enabling coinduction everywhere. ## Results This was cratered in rust-lang#116494 (comment), which boils down to two regressions: * `lu_packets` - This code should have never compiled in the first place. More below. * **ALL** other regressions are due to `[email protected]` (edit: and `[email protected]`) - This actually seems to be fixed in version `0.11.0-beta.5`, which is the *most* up to date version, but it's still prerelease on crates.io so I don't think cargo ends up picking `beta.5` when building dependent crates. ### `lu_packets` Firstly, this crate uses specialization, so I think it's automatically worth breaking. However, I've minimized [the regression](https://crater-reports.s3.amazonaws.com/pr-116494-3/try%23d614ed876e31a5f3ad1d0fbf848fcdab3a29d1d8/gh/lcdr.lu_packets/log.txt) to: ```rust // Upstream crate pub trait Serialize {} impl Serialize for &() {} impl<S> Serialize for &[S] where for<'a> &'a S: Serialize {} // ----------------------------------------------------------------------- // // Downstream crate #![feature(specialization)] #![allow(incomplete_features, unused)] use upstream::Serialize; trait Replica { fn serialize(); } impl<T> Replica for T { default fn serialize() {} } impl<T> Replica for Option<T> where for<'a> &'a T: Serialize, { fn serialize() {} } ``` Specifically this fails when computing the specialization graph for the `downstream` crate. The code ends up cycling on `&[?0]: Serialize` when we equate `&?0 = &[?1]` during impl matching, which ends up needing to prove `&[?1]: Serialize`, which since cycles are treated like ambiguity, ends up in a **fatal overflow**. For some reason this requires two crates, squashing them into one crate doesn't work. Side-note: This code is subtly order dependent. When minimizing, I ended up having the code start failing on `nightly` very easily after removing and reordering impls. This seems to me all the more reason to remove this behavior altogether. ## Side-note: Item Bounds (edit: this was fixed independently in rust-lang#121123) Due to the changes in rust-lang#120584 where we now consider an alias's item bounds *and* all the item bounds of the alias's nested self type aliases, I've had to add e6b64c6 which is a hack to make sure we're not eagerly normalizing bounds that have nothing to do with the predicate we're trying to solve, and which result in. This is fixed in a more principled way in rust-lang#121123. --- r? lcnr for an initial review

Because `dyn` types need to have *concrete* types for all associated items, this would necessitate a distinct lowering for associated type bounds, which seems both complicated and unnecessary compared to just requiring the user to write `impl Trait` themselves. See rust-lang#120719. ### Implementation history: Limited to the significant behavioral changes and fixes and relevant PRs, ping me if I left something out-- * rust-lang#57428 * rust-lang#108063 * rust-lang#110512 * rust-lang#112629 * rust-lang#120719 * rust-lang#120584 Closes rust-lang#52662 [RFC 2289]: https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2289-associated-type-bounds.html

…, r=lcnr Collect relevant item bounds from trait clauses for nested rigid projections Rust currently considers trait where-clauses that bound the trait's *own* associated types to act like an item bound: ```rust trait Foo where Self::Assoc: Bar { type Assoc; } // acts as if: trait Foo { type Assoc: Bar; } ``` ### Background This behavior has existed since essentially forever (i.e. before Rust 1.0), since we originally started out by literally looking at the where clauses written on the trait when assembling `SelectionCandidate::ProjectionCandidate` for projections. However, looking at the predicates of the associated type themselves was not sound, since it was unclear which predicates were *assumed* and which predicates were *implied*, and therefore this was reworked in rust-lang#72788 (which added a query for the predicates we consider for `ProjectionCandidate`s), and then finally item bounds and predicates were split in rust-lang#73905. ### Problem 1: GATs don't uplift bounds correctly All the while, we've still had logic to uplift associated type bounds from a trait's where clauses. However, with the introduction of GATs, this logic was never really generalized correctly for them, since we were using simple equality to test if the self type of a trait where clause is a projection. This leads to shortcomings, such as: ```rust trait Foo where for<'a> Self::Gat<'a>: Debug, { type Gat<'a>; } fn test<T: Foo>(x: T::Gat<'static>) { //~^ ERROR `<T as Foo>::Gat<'a>` doesn't implement `Debug` println!("{:?}", x); } ``` ### Problem 2: Nested associated type bounds are not uplifted We also don't attempt to uplift bounds on nested associated types, something that we couldn't really support until rust-lang#120584. This can be demonstrated best with an example: ```rust trait A where Self::Assoc: B, where <Self::Assoc as B>::Assoc2: C, { type Assoc; // <~ The compiler *should* treat this like it has an item bound `B<Assoc2: C>`. } trait B { type Assoc2; } trait C {} fn is_c<T: C>() {} fn test<T: A>() { is_c::<<Self::Assoc as B>::Assoc2>(); //~^ ERROR the trait bound `<<T as A>::Assoc as B>::Assoc2: C` is not satisfied } ``` Why does this matter? Well, generalizing this behavior bridges a gap between the associated type bounds (ATB) feature and trait where clauses. Currently, all bounds that can be stably written on associated types can also be expressed as where clauses on traits; however, with the stabilization of ATB, there are now bounds that can't be desugared in the same way. This fixes that. ## How does this PR fix things? First, when scraping item bounds from the trait's where clauses, given a trait predicate, we'll loop of the self type of the predicate as long as it's a projection. If we find a projection whose trait ref matches, we'll uplift the bound. This allows us to uplift, for example `<Self as Trait>::Assoc: Bound` (pre-existing), but also `<<Self as Trait>::Assoc as Iterator>::Item: Bound` (new). If that projection is a GAT, we will check if all of the GAT's *own* args are all unique late-bound vars. We then map the late-bound vars to early-bound vars from the GAT -- this allows us to uplift `for<'a, 'b> Self::Assoc<'a, 'b>: Trait` into an item bound, but we will leave `for<'a> Self::Assoc<'a, 'a>: Trait` and `Self::Assoc<'static, 'static>: Trait` alone. ### Okay, but does this *really* matter? I consider this to be an improvement of the status quo because it makes GATs a bit less magical, and makes rigid projections a bit more expressive.
