Having the location where the table type is defined is useful for
tracking other info such as documentation comments, or pointing back
through "Go To Definition" functionality etc.
This adds in the required info
Closes#718
We pass an extra `contents` parameter to the string callback function to
provide contextual information for autocomplete.
Because we support both string literals and simple interpolated strings,
we pass it through as a `std::string` value.
This is a breaking change
* Fixed garbage data in module scopes when type graph is not retained
* LOP_MOVE with the same source and target registers is no longer
generated (Fixes https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/793)
### Problem
ubuntu-latest was updated to 22.04 which removes clang++-10 we used for
coverage stats and creates a pre-compiled binary that requires a glibc
upgrade https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/773
### Solution
Pin to ubuntu-20.04 using multi-value matrix configurations.
In coverage configuration, we use clang++-10 once again.
* Fixed unions of `nil` types displaying as `?`
* Internal normalization now handles class types which can make
previously failing (incorrectly) sub-typing checks to succeed
* The AST JSON encoder will now stringify infinity and NaN according to the JSON5 spec using the tokens `Infinity`, `-Infinity`, and `NaN`.
* Improve autocompletion of table keys if the type of that key is a union of string singletons.
This is useful in particular if redefine `LUAI_MAXCSTACK` to a higher
value than the current one (8000).
Ie. passing `-D LUAI_MAXCSTACK=1000000` would not work as overlaps with
`LUA_REGISTRYINDEX` and below.
* Type mismatch errors now mention if unification failed in covariant or
invariant context, to explain why sometimes derived class can't be
converted to base class or why `T` can't be converted into `T?` and so
on
* Class type indexing is no longer an error in non-strict mode (still an
error in strict mode)
* Fixed cyclic type packs not being displayed in the type
* Added an error when unrelated types are compared with `==`/`~=`
* Fixed false positive errors involving sub-type tests an `never` type
* Fixed miscompilation of multiple assignment statements (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/754)
* Type inference stability improvements
Github fails to find clang++-10.
Since we install llvm without a specific version number, we shouldn't
use clang++-10 with a version number.
I tried installing llvm-10, but that package is not available on github
(any more?).
Currently, the metatable of a class type var is not correctly checked to
see if it is callable (i.e. has a `__call` metatable).
We resolve this issue by checking the metatable in `checkCallOverload`

Closes#631
Performs a "two pass" approach, where we first call `prototype` on the
class definition.
The prototype phase checks for errors and creates a base CTV for the
class, which other types can then reference.
The second `check` phase fills it out with all the defined
properties/methods

String interpolation autocomplete was not working and was just using
default autocomplete. This fixes it so that inside a string it is
treated as normal, and inside an expression it suggests expression level
autocomplete.
Also fixes the range, which was previously just the first lexeme.
* Type inference of `a and b` and `a or b` has been improved (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/730)
* Improved error message when `for ... in x` loop iterates over a value
that could be 'nil'
* Return type of `next` not includes 'nil' (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/706)
* Improved type inference of `string` type
* Luau library table type names are now reported as `typeof(string)`/etc
instead of just `string` which was misleading
* Added parsing error when optional type alias type parameter wasn't
provided after `=` token
* Improved tagged union type refinement in conditional expressions, type
in `else` branch should no longer include previously handled union
options
* Reduce the stack utilization of type checking.
* Improve the error message that's reported when a delimiting comma is
missing from a table literal. eg
```lua
local t = {
first = 1
second = 2
}```
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/719
* Improved `Failed to unify type packs` error message to be reported as
`Type pack 'X' could not be converted into 'Y'`
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/722
* 1% reduction in executed instruction count by removing a check in fast
call dispatch
* Additional fixes to reported error location of OOM errors in VM
* Improve `math.sqrt`, `math.floor` and `math.ceil` performance on
additional compilers and platforms (1-2% geomean improvement including
8-9% on math-cordic)
* All thrown exceptions by Luau analysis are derived from
`Luau::InternalCompilerError`
* When a call site has fewer arguments than required, error now reports
the location of the function name instead of the argument to the
function
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/724
* Fixed https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/725

Right now `getDocumentationSymbol` on an overloaded class method or
table prop just gives the prop name, not prepended with `/overload/ +
toString(overload)`.
This causes the incorrect symbol to be used for `table.insert`,
`BrickColor.new`, `Color3.new` etc. (present in
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MaximumADHD/Roblox-Client-Tracker/roblox/api-docs/en-us.json)

* Support `["prop"]` syntax on class definitions in definition files.
(#704)
* Improve type checking performance for complex overloaded functions
* Fix rare cases of incorrect stack traces for out of memory errors at
runtime
Name the parameters used in `math` lib
This is mainly done to highlight the particular confusion for
`math.atan2`, where `y` comes before `x`, but this might not be
immediately obvious.
And then I added the rest of the names for consistency.
Note: I didn't add names to `math.random` as it's currently typed as
`(number?, number?) -> number`. Naming it `min` and `max` is technically
incorrect for the 1 argument version.
Maybe it should be typed as an intersection instead?
`Frontend.markDirty()` does not correctly mark reverse dependencies that
are not immediate as dirty.
This is because it would keep adding the reverse deps of `name` into the
queue to mark as dirty, instead of the reverse deps of `next`
Some classes have properties which are not valid identifiers (such as
https://create.roblox.com/docs/reference/engine/classes/Studio)
This adds support for the following syntax in definition files:
```lua
declare class Foo
["a property"]: string
end
```
Closes#702
We will now run luau with --codegen during benchmark runs and collect
the data into separate JSON. Note that we don't yet have the historical
data for these, which will be backfilled later.
This change adds codegen runs to coverage config and adds O2/codegen
testing to CI.
Note that we don't run O2 combinations in coverage - it's better that we
see gaps in O2 coverage in compiler tests, as these are valuable for
validating codegen intricacies that are difficult to see from
conformance tests passing/failing.
* Reoptimized math.min/max/bit32 builtins assuming at least 2 arguments are used (1-2% lift on some benchmarks)
* Type errors that mention function types no longer have redundant parenthesis around return type
* Luau REPL now supports --compile=remarks which displays the source code with optimization remarks embedded as comments
* Builtin calls are slightly faster when called with 1-2 arguments (~1% improvement in some benchmarks)
- Fix rare type checking bugs with invalid generic types escaping the
module scope
- Fix type checking of variadic type packs in certain cases
- Implement type normalization, which resolves a large set of various
issues with unions/intersections in type checker
- Improve parse errors for trailing commas in function calls and type
lists
- Reduce profiling skew when using --profile with very high frequencies
- Improve performance of `lua_getinfo` (`debug.info`, `debug.traceback`
and profiling overhead are now 20% faster/smaller)
- Improve performance of polymorphic comparisons (1-2% lift on some
benchmarks)
- Improve performance of closure creation (1-2% lift on some benchmarks)
- Improve string comparison performance (4% lift on string sorting)
We don't need to run any cachegrind benchmarks in benchmark-dev, since
benchmark uses our new callgrind setup instead.
Also removes prototyping filters that we no longer need from all builds.
- Type aliases can no longer override primitive types; attempts to do
that will result in a type error
- Fix misleading type error messages for mismatches in expression list
length during assignment
- Fix incorrect type name display in certain cases
- setmetatable/getmetatable are now ~2x faster
- tools/perfstat.py can be used to display statistics about profiles
captured via --profile switch
To my understanding lua_cleartable does not need GC barriers because
it's only removing elements and not modifying the stack. But I'm not a
GC expert so please correct if I'm wrong.

cases
- Fix type checking variadic returns when the type is incompatible which
type checked in certain cases
- Reduce size of upvalue objects by 8 bytes on 64-bit platforms

Luau currently has the following functions in the C API for dealing with
tables without invoking metamethods:
lua_rawgetfield
lua_rawget
lua_rawgeti
lua_rawset
lua_rawseti
This change adds the missing function lua_rawsetfield for consistency
and because it's more efficient to use it in place of plain lua_rawset
which requires pushing the key and value separately.

Resolves#668
## The problem
Benchmarks jobs run concurrently for the different operating systems.
This means that when it comes time to push the benchmark results to [the
assigned benchmark results
repo](https://github.com/luau-lang/benchmark-data), there can be two
different jobs trying to push changes at the same time. In such a case,
one of the pushes will fail and we end up missing some benchmark results
data from the workflow run.
## The solution
Whenever a push fails, we need to retry the steps leading up to the push
(checking out the benchmark results repo, storing benchmark results,
pushing the results to [a specific
repo](https://github.com/luau-lang/benchmark-data)).
### Note
There are 3 push attempts before submitting to failure.
## TL;DR
This PR retries pushing benchmark results when they fail to get pushed
(often due to pushing from multiple jobs concurrently)
