08d0fa7d53 Makes containsOrIncl*[A](s: var PackedSet[A], key: A) proc faster (#25755)
This PR makes it faster when a number of elements is less than 34
I used following code to compare the speed of `containsOrIncl` proc.
It calls `isRecursiveStructuralType` proc defined in compiler/types.nim
that calls `containsOrIncl` with `IntSet`(= `PackedSet[int]`).
```nim
import std/[tables, monotimes, times, strformat]
import "$nim"/compiler/[astdef, ast, idents, types]

var idgen = IdGenerator(module: 0, symId: 0, typeId: 0, disambTable: initCountTable[PIdent]())

proc newType(kind: TTypeKind; son: sink PType = nil): PType =
  result = newType(kind, idgen, nil, son)

proc genNoRecursPType(len: int): PType =
  assert len > 1
  let intTyp = newType(tyInt)
  result = newType(tyRef, intTyp)
  for i in 0..<(len - 2):
    result = newType(tyRef, result)

proc test =
  var noRecursPType = genNoRecursPType(4)
  assert not isRecursiveStructuralType(noRecursPType)

test()

template measure(label: string; body: untyped): untyped =
  let
    loop = 2000
    sampling = 200
  block:
    var r {.inject.} = false
    var minT = initDuration(hours = 1)
    for i in 0 ..< sampling:
      let start = getMonoTime()
      for j in 0 ..< loop:
        body
      let finish = getMonoTime()
      minT = min(finish - start, minT)
    echo ($r)[0], ' ', label, minT div loop

proc benchNoRecurs(len: int) =
  echo fmt"No recursive: length: {len}"
  var noRecursPType = genNoRecursPType(len)
  measure("IntSet: "):
    r = isRecursiveStructuralType(noRecursPType)

proc bench =
  benchNoRecurs(30)

bench()
```

Output before changing code:
```
f IntSet: 1 microsecond and 262 nanoseconds
```
Output after change:
```
f IntSet: 833 nanoseconds
```

Why this PR make it faster:
```nim
proc containsOrIncl*[A](s: var PackedSet[A], key: A): bool =
  ...
  if s.elems <= s.a.len:
    for i in 0..<s.elems:
      if s.a[i] == ord(key):
        return true
    # `incl` scans `s.a` again
    incl(s, key)
    result = false
```

```nim
proc containsOrIncl*[A](s: var PackedSet[A], key: A): bool =
  ...
  if s.elems <= s.a.len:
    for i in 0..<s.elems:
      if s.a[i] == ord(key):
        return true
    if s.elems < s.a.len:
      # put `key` in `s.a` instead of calling `incl(s, key)`
      s.a[s.elems] = ord(key)
      inc(s.elems)
    else:
      incl(s, key)
    result = false
```

7fa3d94f29 fixes #25718; setLenUnit slow (#25743)
fixes #25718

This pull request optimizes sequence allocation in the Nim standard
library by introducing a way to create uninitialized sequence payloads
for element types that don't require zero-initialization. The changes
allow for more efficient memory allocation when initializing sequences
with types that have no references, avoiding unnecessary zeroing of
memory.

Sequence allocation and initialization improvements:

* Added the `newSeqUninitRaw` procedure to create sequence payloads with
a specified length without forcing zero-initialization for element types
marked as `ntfNoRefs`. (`lib/system/sysstr.nim`,

* Modified the `extendCapacityRaw` procedure and the `setLengthSeqImpl`
template to use `newSeqUninitRaw` when zero-initialization is not
required, controlled by the `doInit` static parameter.

eb6b923135 fixes #25751; JS backend crashes when returning Option[T] with custom =destroy (#25752)
fixes #25751

This pull request improves the JavaScript backend code generation and
expands test coverage, particularly around temporary and loop variables,
as well as object destruction behavior. The main changes include
updating the code generator to handle more symbol kinds and adding tests
to ensure proper destruction and option handling.

**JavaScript code generation improvements:**

* Updated `genSymAddr` in `compiler/jsgen.nim` to support additional
symbol kinds, specifically `skTemp` and `skForVar`, ensuring correct
address generation for temporaries and loop variables.

**Test suite enhancements:**

* Added tests in `tests/js/test2.nim` to verify correct behavior of
option types, object destruction (`=destroy`), and to check for
backend-specific crashes. This includes printing results of
option-returning functions and confirming destruction messages.
* Updated expected output in `tests/js/test2.nim` to include results
from new tests and destruction messages, ensuring the test suite
reflects the latest code behavior.

<blockquote>
<h2>v9.0.0</h2>
<p><strong>New features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><code>getOctokit</code> factory function</strong> —
Available directly in the script context. Create additional
authenticated Octokit clients with different tokens for multi-token
workflows, GitHub App tokens, and cross-org access. See <a
href="https://github.com/actions/github-script#creating-additional-clients-with-getoctokit">Creating
additional clients with <code>getOctokit</code></a> for details and
examples.</li>
<li><strong>Orchestration ID in user-agent</strong> — The
<code>ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID</code> environment variable is
automatically appended to the user-agent string for request
tracing.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Breaking changes:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><code>require('@actions/github')</code> no longer works in
scripts.</strong> The upgrade to <code>@actions/github</code> v9
(ESM-only) means <code>require('@actions/github')</code> will fail at
runtime. If you previously used patterns like <code>const { getOctokit }
= require('@actions/github')</code> to create secondary clients, use the
new injected <code>getOctokit</code> function instead — it's available
directly in the script context with no imports needed.</li>
<li><code>getOctokit</code> is now an injected function parameter.
Scripts that declare <code>const getOctokit = ...</code> or <code>let
getOctokit = ...</code> will get a <code>SyntaxError</code> because
JavaScript does not allow <code>const</code>/<code>let</code>
redeclaration of function parameters. Use the injected
<code>getOctokit</code> directly, or use <code>var getOctokit =
...</code> if you need to redeclare it.</li>
<li>If your script accesses other <code>@actions/github</code> internals
beyond the standard <code>github</code>/<code>octokit</code> client, you
may need to update those references for v9 compatibility.</li>
</ul>

e4eff04945 fixes #25469; Conversion from distinct in for forces a copy of underlying instance (#25746)
fixes #25469

This pull request introduces an important fix to argument handling in
the compiler's transformation logic and adds a new test to verify
correct behavior with distinct types and ARC memory management.

### Compiler transformation improvements

* Updated `putArgInto` in `compiler/transf.nim` to handle
`nkHiddenStdConv`, `nkHiddenSubConv`, and `nkConv` nodes more
accurately. Now, if the types match (ignoring distinctness and shallow
range differences), the argument is recursively processed; otherwise, it
falls back to a fast assignment. This prevents incorrect assignments
when dealing with type conversions and distinct types.

### Testing for distinct types and ARC

* Added a new test `tdistinct_for_nodup.nim` to ensure correct iteration
and memory management for distinct sequences of large arrays under ARC.
The test checks that the sequence length remains unchanged during
iteration, helping catch regressions related to ARC and distinct types.

488aa1ce86 optimizes setLen for orc; disabling overflow checks (#25722)
ref https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/25695
ref https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/25715

This pull request introduces a minor but important change to the
`setLen` procedure in `lib/system/seqs_v2.nim`. The main update is the
temporary disabling of overflow checks during the initialization loop
when extending the sequence length, which can improve performance and
avoid unnecessary checks during this operation.

Memory and performance improvement:

* Disabled overflow checks for the loop that initializes new elements to
their default value when increasing the length of a sequence in
`setLen`, by wrapping the loop with `{.push overflowChecks: off.}` and
`{.pop.}`.

68bcee04a1 fixes #25724; Invalid C code generation with iterator/nimvm (#25728)
fixes #25724

This pull request introduces a small but important fix in the compiler
and adds a new test case related to iterators. The main change in the
compiler ensures that lambda-like constructs are handled consistently
with other procedure definitions, while the new test in the suite covers
a previously untested scenario.

**Compiler improvements:**
* Updated `introduceNewLocalVars` in `compiler/transf.nim` to handle all
`nkLambdaKinds` in addition to `nkProcDef`, `nkFuncDef`, `nkMethodDef`,
and `nkConverterDef`, ensuring consistent transformation of all
lambda-like constructs.

**Testing:**
* Added a block to `tests/iter/titer_issues.nim` to test iterator
behavior in both compile-time and run-time contexts, addressing bug
#25724.

c733904716 fixes #25697; {.borrow.} on iterator for distinct seq triggers internal error (#25709)
fixes #25697

This pull request improves the handling of borrowed routines in the
compiler transformation phase, making the code more robust and
maintainable. The main change is the introduction of a helper function
to properly resolve borrowed routine symbols, which is then used in
multiple places to ensure correct symbol resolution. Additionally, a new
test case is added to cover a previously reported bug related to
borrowed iterators on distinct types.

**Compiler improvements:**

* Added `resolveBorrowedRoutineSym` helper function to follow borrow
aliases and retrieve the underlying implementation symbol for borrowed
routines. This centralizes and clarifies the logic for resolving
borrowed symbols.
* Updated `transformSymAux` and `transformFor` to use the new helper
function, replacing duplicated logic and improving correctness when
handling borrowed routines.

**Testing:**

* Added a test case for bug #25697 to `tests/distinct/tborrow.nim`,
ensuring that iteration over a distinct type with a borrowed iterator
works as expected.

817dd06eb2 fix compiler crash regression with explicit destructor calls [backport:2.2] (#25717)
Unfortunately I do not have a test case for this (although I can link
[this package
test](60f1be9037/tests/test_simple_combined.nim)
which broke), but this is a regression caused by #24841 (which was
backported to 2.2.4) that causes the following compiler crash:

```
assertions.nim(34)       raiseAssert
Error: unhandled exception: ccgtypes.nim(230, 13) `false` mapType: tyGenericInvocation [AssertionDefect]
```

Codegen is traversing the type of the symbol of an explicit destructor
call, but the symbol is the uninstantiated generic hook. This happens
because #24841 changed the code which gives explicit destructor calls
the proper attached destructor to use `replaceHookMagic`, which now
skips `abstractVar` from the type to get the destructor whereas
previously it was just `{tyAlias, tyVar}`. This skips `tyGenericInst`
and also `tyDistinct`. I cannot explain why the skipped `tyGenericInst`
does not have the right destructor but it's not really unexpected, and
skipping `tyDistinct` is just wrong.

To fix this, just `{tyAlias, tyVar, tySink}` are skipped.

5ddae390f2 Fix inconsistent env type with nested procs in iterators (#21242) (#25699)
Nested transformBody/liftLambdas passes used a fresh DetectionPass, so
getEnvTypeForOwner could allocate a duplicate PType for the same owner
while :envP already referenced the inner pass type. When addClosureParam
saw cp.typ != t, it errored.

If both types are env objects for the same routine owner, reuse cp.typ
and sync ownerToType.

Adds regression test tests/iter/t21242_nested_closure_in_iter.nim.

d8f09f7604 fixes #25687; optimizes seq assignment for orc (#25689)
fixes #25687

This pull request introduces an optimization for sequence (`seq`)
assignments and copies in the Nim compiler, enabling bulk memory copying
for sequences whose element types are trivially copyable (i.e., no GC
references or destructors). This can significantly improve performance
for such types by avoiding per-element loops.

Key changes:

* Added the `elemSupportsCopyMem` function in
`compiler/liftdestructors.nim` to detect if a sequence's element type is
trivially copyable (no GC refs, no destructors).
* Updated the `fillSeqOp` procedure to use a new `genBulkCopySeq` code
path for eligible element types, generating a call to
`nimCopySeqPayload` for efficient bulk copying. Fallback to the
element-wise loop remains for non-trivial types.

* Introduced the `nimCopySeqPayload` procedure in
`lib/system/seqs_v2.nim`, which performs the actual bulk memory copy of
sequence data using `copyMem`. This is only used for types that are safe
for such an operation.

These changes collectively improve the efficiency of sequence operations
for simple types, while maintaining correctness for complex types.

5df28ab02a Fix iterable resolution, prefer iterator overloads (#25679)
This fixes type resolution for `iterable[T]`.

I want to proceed with RFC
[#562](https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/562) and this is the main
blocker for composability.

Fixes #22098 and, arguably, #19206

```nim
import std/strutils

template collect[T](it: iterable[T]): seq[T] =
  block:
    var res: seq[T] = @[]
    for x in it:
      res.add x
    res

const text = "a b c d"

let words = text.split.collect()
doAssert words == @[ "a", "b", "c", "d" ]
```

In cases like `strutils.split`, where both proc and iterator overload
exists, the compiler resolves to the `func` overload causing a type
mismatch.

The old mode resolved `text.split` to `seq[string]` before the
surrounding `iterable[T]` requirement was applied, so the argument no
longer matched this template.

It should be noted that, compared to older sequtils templates,
composable chains based on `iterable[T]` require an iterator-producing
expression, e.g. `"foo".items.iterableTmpl()` rather than just
`"foo".iterableTmpl()`. This is actually desirable: it keeps the
iteration boundary explicit and makes iterable-driven templates
intentionally not directly interchangeable with older
untyped/loosely-typed templates like those in `sequtils`, whose internal
iterator setup we have zero control over (e.g. hard-coding adapters like
`items`).

Also, I noticed in `semstmts` that anonymous iterators are always
`closure`, which is not that surprising if you think about it, but still
I added a paragraph to the manual.

Regarding implementation:

From what I gathered, the root cause is that `semOpAux` eagerly
pre-types all arguments with plain flags before overload resolution
begins, so by the time `prepareOperand` processes `split` against the
`iterable[T]`, the wrong overload has already won.

The fix touches a few places:

- `prepareOperand` in `sigmatch.nim`:
When `formal.kind == tyIterable` and the argument was already typed as
something else, it's re-semchecked with the
`efPreferIteratorForIterable` flag. The recheck is limited to direct
calls (`a[0].kind in {nkIdent, nkAccQuoted, nkSym, nkOpenSym}`) to avoid
recursing through `semIndirectOp`/`semOpAux` again.

- `iteratorPreference` field `TCandidate`, checked before
`genericMatches` in `cmpCandidates`, gives the iterator overload a win
without touching the existing iterator heuristic used by `for` loops.

**Limitations:**

The implementation is still flag-driven rather than purely
formal-driven, so the behaviour is a bit too broad `efWantIterable` can
cause iterator results to be wrapped as `tyIterable` in
iterable-admitting contexts, not only when `iterable[T]` match is being
processed.

`iterable[T]` still does not accept closure iterator values such
as`iterator(): T {.closure.}`. It only matches the compiler's internal
`tyIterable`, not arbitrary iterator-typed values.

The existing iterator-preference heuristic is still in place, because
when I tried to remove it, some loosely-related regressions happened. In
particular, ordinary iterator-admitting contexts and iterator chains
still rely on early iterator preference during semchecking, before the
compiler has enough surrounding context to distinguish between
value/iterator producing overloads. Full heuristic removal would require
a broader refactor of dot-chain/intermediate-expression semchecking,
which is just too much for me ATM. This PR narrows only the
tyIterable-specific cases.

**Future work:**

Rework overload resolution to preserve additional information of
matching iterator overloads for calls up to the point where the
iterator-requiring context is established, to avoid re-sem in
`prepareOperand`.

Currently there's no good channel to store that information. Nodes can
get rewritten, TCandidate doesn't live long enough, storing in Context
or some side-table raises the question how to properly key that info.

03df884f02 fixes #25682; fix vm genAsgn to handle statementListExpr (#25686)
fixes #25682

This pull request introduces a fix to the Nim compiler's assignment code
generation logic to better handle statement list expressions, and adds
regression tests to ensure correct behavior when assigning to object
fields via templates. The changes address a specific bug (#25682)
related to assignments using templates with side effects in static
contexts.

**Compiler code generation improvements:**

* Updated the `genAsgn` procedure in `compiler/vmgen.nim` to properly
handle assignments where the left-hand side is a `nkStmtListExpr`
(statement list expression), ensuring all statements except the last are
executed before the assignment occurs.

**Regression tests for assignment semantics:**

* Added new test blocks in `tests/vm/tvmmisc.nim` to verify that
template-based assignments to object fields work as expected in static
contexts, specifically testing for bug #25682.

39285aa760 fixes #25632; errors incompatibility between {.error.} and {.exportc} pragmas in semProcAux (#25639)
fixes #25632
fixes #25631
fixes #25630

This pull request introduces a compatibility check between the
`{.error.}` and `{.exportc.}` pragmas in procedure declarations.
Specifically, it prevents a procedure from being marked with both
pragmas at the same time, as this combination is now considered invalid.

Pragma compatibility enforcement:

* Added a check in `semProcAux` (in `compiler/semstmts.nim`) to emit a
local error if a procedure is declared with both `{.error.}` and
`{.exportc.}` pragmas, preventing their incompatible usage.

53c31aef67 windows: prefer 64-bit time_t (#25666)
time_t should be a 64-bit type on all relevant windows CRT versions
including mingw-w64 - MSDN recommends against using the 32-bit version
which only is happens when `_USE_32BIT_TIME_T` is explicitly defined -
instead of guessing (and guessing wrong, as happens with recent mingw
versions), we can simply use the 64-bit version always.

b02d74c85a fixes #25677; fixes #25678; typeAllowedAux to improve flag handling (#25684)
fixes #25677;
fixes #25678

This pull request introduces both a bug fix to the type checking logic
in the compiler and new test cases for lent types involving procedures
and tables. The most significant change is a refinement in how type
flags are handled for procedure and function types in the compiler,
which improves correctness in type allowance checks. Additionally, the
test suite is expanded to cover more complex scenarios with lent types
and table lookups.

**Compiler improvements:**

* Refined the handling of type flags in `typeAllowedAux` for procedure
and function types by introducing `innerFlags`, which removes certain
flags (`taObjField`, `taTupField`, `taIsOpenArray`) before recursing
into parameter and return types. This ensures more accurate type
checking and prevents inappropriate flag propagation.

**Testing enhancements:**

* Added new test blocks in `tests/lent/tlents.nim` to cover lent
procedure types stored in objects and used as table values, including a
function that retrieves such procedures from a table by key.
* Introduced a test case for an object containing a lent procedure
field, ensuring correct behavior when accessing and using these fields.

Fixes bug #25674.

`replace` read `s[i+1]` for a CRLF pair without ensuring `i+1 <

The previous condition `not value > 0` was parsed as `(not value) > 0`,

`value <= 0`.

82cb47a930 See discussion at https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/25602 . (#25612)
It seems in dispute whether changes to code induced to avoid this new
warning firing are worthwhile.

Until either the analyzer is better or a palatable way to adjust stdlib
code not warn is found, verbosity=1 should not include the warning.

Possibly higher levels, too, but this PR is conservative and only takes
it out at the 2->1 transition.

77a75aaf44 nimdoc: CSS: fix rendering of inline code spans (#25605)
I've been wondering why the inline code was rendered wrapped with no
regards to words/whitespace for a while.

Partially reverts 8b82f5 (#24927)

- `word-break: break-all;` This is seriously wrong, replaced with
`overflow-wrap: break-word;`
- `white-space: normal;` -> `pre-wrap;` to preserve whitespace in code
spans.
- Added `display: block;` and `overflow-x: auto;` to tables. This
contains wide tables with their own scrollbars without stretching the
whole doc.
- `overflow-x: hidden;` just clips content and possibly conflicts with
navbar's `sticky` attribute. Removed.

229a27c40a properly codegen structs on deref [backport:2.2] (#25600)
Follows up #25269, refs #25265.

I hit the same bug as #25265 for my own project but #25269 does not fix
it, I think because the type in my case is a `tyGenericInst` which does
not trigger the generation here. First I thought of skipping abstract
type kinds instead of checking for a raw `tyObject`, which fixes my
problem. But in general this could maybe also be encountered for
`tyTuple` and `tySequence` etc. So I figured it might just be safest to
not filter on specific type kinds, ~~which is done now~~ (edit: broke
CI). Maybe this has a slight cost on codegen performance though.

Edit: Allowing all types failed CI for some reason as commented below,
trying skipped type version again.

f201c4e225 fix compiler crash with uncheckedAssign and range/distinct discrims [backport] (#25585)
On simple code like:

```nim
type Foo = object
  case x: range[0..7]
  of 0..2:
    a: string
  else:
    b: string

var foo = Foo()
{.cast(uncheckedAssign).}:
  foo.x = 5
```

The compiler tries to generate a destructor for the variant fields by
checking if the discrim is equal to the old one, but the type is not
skipped when looking for an `==` operator in system, so any
discriminator with type `range`/`distinct`/etc crashes with:

```
(10, 9) Error: can't find magic equals operator for type kind tyRange
```

This is fixed by just skipping abstract types.
