# What's changed?
- Record the location of properties for table types (closes#802)
- Implement stricter UTF-8 validations as per the RFC
(https://github.com/luau-lang/rfcs/pull/1)
- Implement `buffer` as a new type in both the old and new solvers.
- Changed errors produced by some `buffer` builtins to be a bit more
generic to avoid platform-dependent error messages.
- Fixed a bug where `Unifier` would copy some persistent types, tripping
some internal assertions.
- Type checking rules on relational operators is now a little bit more
lax.
- Improve dead code elimination for some `if` statements with complex
always-false conditions
## New type solver
- Dataflow analysis now generates phi nodes on exit of branches.
- Dataflow analysis avoids producing a new definition for locals or
properties that are not owned by that loop.
- If a function parameter has been constrained to `never`, report errors
at all uses of that parameter within that function.
- Switch to using the new `Luau::Set` to replace `std::unordered_set` to
alleviate some poor allocation characteristics which was negatively
affecting overall performance.
- Subtyping can now report many failing reasons instead of just the
first one that we happened to find during the test.
- Subtyping now also report reasons for type pack mismatches.
- When visiting `if` statements or expressions, the resulting context
are the common terms in both branches.
## Native codegen
- Implement support for `buffer` builtins to its IR for x64 and A64.
- Optimized `table.insert` by not inserting a table barrier if it is
fastcalled with a constant.

# What's changed?
* Fixed a bug in type cloning by maintaining persistent types.
* We now parse imprecise integer literals to report the imprecision as a
warning to developers.
* Add a compiler flag to specify the name of the statistics output file.
### New type solver
* Renamed `ConstraintGraphBuilder` to `ConstraintGenerator`
* LValues now take into account the type being assigned during
constraint generation.
* Normalization performance has been improved by 33% by replacing the an
internal usage of `std::unordered_set` with `DenseHashMap`.
* Normalization now has a helper to identify types that are equivalent
to `unknown`, which is being used to fix some bugs in subtyping.
* Uses of the old unifier in the new type solver have been eliminated.
* Improved error explanations for subtyping errors in `TypeChecker2`.
### Native code generation
* Expanded some of the statistics recorded during compilation to include
the number of instructions and blocks.
* Introduce instruction and block count limiters for controlling what
bytecode is translated into native code.
* Implement code generation for byteswap instruction.

# New Type Solver
- Implement bidirectional type inference for higher order functions so
that we can provide a more precise type improving the autocomplete's
human factors.
- We seal all tables, so we changed the stringification to make it a
little lighter on users.
- Fixed a case of array-out-of-bound access.
- Type families no longer depends on `TxnLog` and `Unifier`.
- Type refinements now waits until the free types are sufficiently
solved.
# Native Code Generation
- Remove cached slot lookup for `executeSETTABLEKS` function because it
is a fallback in the event of a cache miss, making the cached slot
lookup redundant.
- Optimized repeated array lookups, e.g. `a[3]` in `a[3] = a[3] / 2` is
done once.
# Misc
- On some platforms, it is necessary to use `gmtime_s` with the
arguments reversed to get the current time. You can now define
`DOCTEST_CONFIG_USE_GMTIME_S` to build and run unit tests on those
platforms.

* Fix a use-after-free bug in the new type cloning algorithm
* Tighten up the type of `coroutine.wrap`. It is now `<A..., R...>(f:
(A...) -> R...) -> ((A...) -> R...)`
* Break `.luaurc` out into a separate library target `Luau.Config`. This
makes it easier for applications to reason about config files without
also depending on the type inference engine.
* Move typechecking limits into `FrontendOptions`. This allows embedders
more finely-grained control over autocomplete's internal time limits.
* Fix stability issue with debugger onprotectederror callback allowing
break in non-yieldable contexts
New solver:
* Initial work toward [Local Type
Inference](0e1082108f/rfcs/local-type-inference.md)
* Introduce a new subtyping test. This will be much nicer than the old
test because it is completely separate both from actual type inference
and from error reporting.
Native code generation:
* Added function to compute iterated dominance frontier
* Optimize barriers in SET_UPVALUE when tag is known
* Cache lua_State::global in a register on A64
* Optimize constant stores in A64 lowering
* Track table array size state to optimize array size checks
* Add split tag/value store into a VM register
* Check that spills can outlive the block only in specific conditions

* Better indentation in multi-line type mismatch error messages
* Error message clone can no longer cause a stack overflow (when
typechecking with retainFullTypeGraphs set to false); fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/975
* `string.format` with %s is now ~2x faster on strings smaller than 100
characters
Native code generation:
* All VM side exits will block return to the native execution of the
current function to preserve correctness
* Fixed executable page allocation on Apple platforms when using
hardened runtime
* Added statistics for code generation (no. of functions compiler,
memory used for different areas)
* Fixed issue with function entry type checks performed more that once
in some functions
* Progress toward a diffing algorithm for types. We hope that this will
be useful for writing clearer error messages.
* Add a missing recursion limiter in `Unifier::tryUnifyTables`. This was
causing a crash in certain situations.
* Luau heap graph enumeration improvements:
* Weak references are not reported
* Added tag as a fallback name of non-string table links
* Included top Luau function information in thread name to understand
where thread might be suspended
* Constant folding for `math.pi` and `math.huge` at -O2
* Optimize `string.format` and `%*`
* This change makes string interpolation 1.5x-2x faster depending on the
number and type of formatted components, assuming a few are using
primitive types, and reduces associated GC pressure.
New type checker:
* Initial work toward tracking the upper and lower bounds of types
accurately.
Native code generation (JIT):
* Add IrCmd::CHECK_TRUTHY for improved assert fast-calls
* Do not compute type map for modules without types
* Capture metatable+readonly state for NEW_TABLE IR instructions
* Replace JUMP_CMP_ANY with CMP_ANY and existing JUMP_EQ_INT
* Add support for exits to VM with reentry lock in VmExit

* Added support for async typechecking cancellation using a token passed
through frontend options
* Added luaC_enumheap for building debug tools that need a graph of Luau
heap
In our new typechecker:
* Errors or now suppressed when checking property lookup of
error-suppressing unions
In our native code generation (jit):
* Fixed unhandled value type in NOT_ANY lowering
* Fast-call tag checks will exit to VM on failure, instead of relying on
a native fallback
* Added vector type to the type information
* Eliminated redundant direct jumps across dead blocks
* Debugger APIs are now disabled for call frames executing natively
* Implemented support for unwind registration on macOS 14
* Optimized operations like instantiation and module export for very
large types
In our new typechecker:
* Typechecking of function calls was rewritten to handle more cases
correctly
* Fixed a crash that can happen after self-referential type is exported
from a module
* Fixed a false positive error in string comparison
* Added handling of `for...in` variable type annotations and fixed
issues with the iterator call inside
* Self-referential 'hasProp' and 'setProp' constraints are now handled
correctly
In our native code generation (jit):
* Added '--target' argument to luau-compile to test multiple
architectures different from host architecture
* GC barrier tag check is skipped if type is already known to be
GC-collectable
* Added GET_TYPE/GET_TYPEOF instructions for type/typeof fast-calls
* Improved code size of interrupt handlers on X64
Lots of things going on this week:
* Fix a crash that could occur in the presence of a cyclic union. We
shouldn't be creating cyclic unions, but we shouldn't be crashing when
they arise either.
* Minor cleanup of `luau_precall`
* Internal change to make L->top handling slightly more uniform
* Optimize SETGLOBAL & GETGLOBAL fallback C functions.
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/929
* The syntax to the `luau-reduce` commandline tool has changed. It now
accepts a script, a command to execute, and an error to search for. It
no longer automatically passes the script to the command which makes it
a lot more flexible. Also be warned that it edits the script it is
passed **in place**. Do not point it at something that is not in source
control!
New solver
* Switch to a greedier but more fallible algorithm for simplifying union
and intersection types that are created as part of refinement
calculation. This has much better and more predictable performance.
* Fix a constraint cycle in recursive function calls.
* Much improved inference of binary addition. Functions like `function
add(x, y) return x + y end` can now be inferred without annotations. We
also accurately typecheck calls to functions like this.
* Many small bugfixes surrounding things like table indexers
* Add support for indexers on class types. This was previously added to
the old solver; we now add it to the new one for feature parity.
JIT
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/931
* Fuse key.value and key.tt loads for CEHCK_SLOT_MATCH in A64
* Implement remaining aliases of BFM for A64
* Implement new callinfo flag for A64
* Add instruction simplification for int->num->int conversion chains
* Don't even load execdata for X64 calls
* Treat opcode fallbacks the same as manually written fallbacks

* Added a limit on how many instructions the Compiler can safely produce
(reported by @TheGreatSageEqualToHeaven)
C++ API Changes:
* With work started on read-only and write-only properties,
`Property::type` member variable has been replaced with `TypeId type()`
and `setType(TypeId)` functions.
* New `LazyType` unwrap callback now has a `void` return type, all
that's required from the callback is to write into `unwrapped` field.
In our work on the new type solver, the following issues were fixed:
* Work has started to support https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/77 and
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/79
* Refinements are no longer applied on l-values, removing some
false-positive errors
* Improved overload resolution against expected result type
* `Frontend::prepareModuleScope` now works in the new solver
* Cofinite strings are now comparable
And these are the changes in native code generation (JIT):
* Fixed MIN_NUM and MAX_NUM constant fold when one of the arguments is
NaN
* Added constant folding for number conversions and bit operations
* Value spilling and rematerialization is now supported on arm64
* Improved FASTCALL2K IR generation to support second argument constant
* Added value numbering and load/store propagation optimizations
* Added STORE_VECTOR on arm64, completing the IR lowering on this target
* Work toward affording parallel type checking
* The interface to `LazyType` has changed:
* `LazyType` now takes a second callback that is passed the `LazyType&`
itself. This new callback is responsible for populating the field
`TypeId LazyType::unwrapped`. Multithreaded implementations should
acquire a lock in this callback.
* Modules now retain their `humanReadableNames`. This reduces the number
of cases where type checking has to call back to a `ModuleResolver`.
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/902
* Add timing info to the Luau REPL compilation output
We've also fixed some bugs and crashes in the new solver as we march
toward readiness.
* Thread ICEs (Internal Compiler Errors) back to the Frontend properly
* Refinements are no longer applied to lvalues
* More miscellaneous stability improvements
Lots of activity in the new JIT engine:
* Implement register spilling/restore for A64
* Correct Luau IR value restore location tracking
* Fixed use-after-free in x86 register allocator spill restore
* Use btz for bit tests
* Finish branch assembly support for A64
* Codesize and performance improvements for A64
* The bit32 library has been implemented for arm and x64

* Fixed exported types not being suggested in autocomplete
* `T...` is now convertible to `...any` (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/767)
* Fixed issue with `T?` not being convertible to `T | T` or `T?`
(sometimes when internal pointer identity is different)
* Fixed potential crash in missing table key error suggestion to use a
similar existing key
* `lua_topointer` now returns a pointer for strings
C++ API Changes:
* `prepareModuleScope` callback has moved from TypeChecker to Frontend
* For LSPs, AstQuery functions (and `isWithinComment`) can be used
without full Frontend data
A lot of changes in our two experimental components as well.
In our work on the new type-solver, the following issues were fixed:
* Fixed table union and intersection indexing
* Correct custom type environments are now used
* Fixed issue with values of `free & number` type not accepted in
numeric operations
And these are the changes in native code generation (JIT):
* arm64 lowering is almost complete with support for 99% of IR commands
and all fastcalls
* Fixed x64 assembly encoding for extended byte registers
* More external x64 calls are aware of register allocator
* `math.min`/`math.max` with more than 2 arguments are now lowered to IR
as well
* Fixed correctness issues with `math` library calls with multiple
results in variadic context and with x64 register conflicts
* x64 register allocator learnt to restore values from VM memory instead
of always using stack spills
* x64 exception unwind information now supports multiple functions and
fixes function start offset in Dwarf2 info
All of our changes this week have been focused on the new type solver
and the JIT.
As we march toward feature parity with the old solver, we've tightened
up a bunch of lingering issues with overload resolution, unsealed
tables, and type normalization. We've also fixed a bunch of crashes and
assertion failures in the new solver.
On the JIT front, we've started work on an A64 backend, improved the IR
analysis in a bunch of cases, and implemented assembly generation for
the builtin functions `type()` and `typeof()`.

* Fix#817
* Fix#850
* Optimize math.floor/ceil/round with SSE4.1
* Results in a ~7-9% speedup on the math-cordic benchmark.
* Optimized table.sort.
* table.sort is now ~4.1x faster (when not using a predicate) and ~2.1x
faster when using a simple predicate. Performance may improve further in
the future.
* Reorganize the memory ownership of builtin type definitions.
* This is a small initial step toward affording parallel typechecking.
The new type solver is coming along nicely. We are working on fixing
crashes and bugs.
A few major changes to native codegen landed this week:
* Fixed lowering of Luau IR mod instruction when first argument is a
constant
* Added VM register data-flow/capture analysis
* Fixed issues with optimizations in unreachable blocks

We've made a few small changes to reduce the amount of stack we use when
typechecking nested method calls (eg `foo:bar():baz():quux()`).
We've also fixed a small bytecode compiler issue that caused us to emit
redundant jump instructions in code that conditionally uses `break` or
`continue`.
On the new solver, we've switched to a new, better way to handle
augmentations to unsealed tables. We've also made some substantial
improvements to type inference and error reporting on function calls.
These things should both be on par with the old solver now.
The main improvements to the native code generator have been elimination
of some redundant type tag checks. Also, we are starting to inline
particular fastcalls directly to IR.

* Fix a bug where reading a property from an unsealed table caused
inference to improperly infer the existence of that property.
* Fix#827
We have also made a lot of progress on the new solver and the JIT. Both
projects are still in the process of being built out. Neither are ready
for general use yet.
We are mostly working to tighten up how the new solver handles
refinements and updates to unsealed tables to bring it up to the same
level as the old solver.

* 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)
- Remove type definitions of
`utf8.nfcnormalize`/`nfdnormalize`/`graphemes` that aren't supported by
standalone Luau library
- Add `lua_costatus` to retrieve extended thread status (similar to
`coroutine.status`)
- Improve GC sweeping performance (2-10% improvement on allocation-heavy
benchmarks)
* Fix free Luau type being fully overwritten by 'any' and causing UAF
* Fix lua_clonefunction implementation replacing top instead of pushing
* Falsey values other than false can now narrow refinements
* Fix lua_getmetatable, lua_getfenv not waking thread up
* FIx a case where lua_objlen could push a new string without thread wakeup or GC
* Moved Luau math and bit32 definitions to definition file
* Improve Luau parse recovery of incorrect return type token
- Fix some cases where type checking would overflow the native stack
- Improve autocomplete behavior when assigning a partially written function call (not currently exposed through command line tools)
- Improve autocomplete type inference feedback for some expressions where previously the type would not be known
- Improve quantification performance during type checking for large types
- Improve type checking for table literals when the expected type of the table is known because of a type annotation
- Fix type checking errors in cases where required module has errors in the resulting type
- Fix debug line information for multi-line chained call sequences (Add function name information for "attempt to call a nil value" #255)
- lua_newuserdata now takes 2 arguments to match Lua/LuaJIT APIs better; lua_newuserdatatagged should be used if the third argument was non-0.
- lua_ref can no longer be used with LUA_REGISTRYINDEX to prevent mistakes when migrating Lua FFI (Inconsistency with lua_ref #247)
- Fix assertions and possible crashes when executing script code indirectly via metatable dispatch from lua_equal/lua_lessthan/lua_getfield/etc. (Hitting a crash in an assert after lua_equal is called. #259)

- Fix lua_breakpoint behavior when enabled=false
- Implement coroutine.close (RFC RFC: coroutine.close #88)
Note, this introduces small breaking changes in lua.h:
- luau_load env argument is now required, pass an extra 0
- lua_pushcfunction now must be called with 3 arguments; if you were calling it with 2 arguments, pass an extra NULL; if you were calling it with 4, use lua_pushcclosure.
These changes are necessary to make sure lua.h can be used from pure C - the future release will make it possible by adding an option to luaconf.h to change function name mangling to be C-compatible. We don't anticipate breaking the FFI interface in the future, but this change was necessary to restore C compatibility.
Closes#121Fixes#213
Changes:
- Support for time tracing for analysis/compiler (not currently exposed
through CLI)
- Support for type pack arguments in type aliases (#83)
- Basic support for require(path) in luau-analyze
- Add a lint warning for table.move with 0 index as part of
TableOperation lint
- Remove last STL dependency from Luau.VM
- Minor VS2022 performance tuning
