Not sure why this wasn't the case already. The `if cl.allowMetaTypes:
return` line below for `tyFromExpr` [was added 10 years
ago](d5798b43de).
Hopefully it was just negligence?

When matching a `template` with an `untyped` argument fails because of a
mismatching typed argument, `presentFailedCandidates` tries to sem every
single argument to show their types, but trying to type the `untyped`
argument can fail if it's supposed to use an injected symbol, so we get
an unrelated error message like "undeclared identifier".
Instead we use `tryExpr` as the comment suggests, setting the type to
`untyped` if it fails to compile. We could also maybe check if an
`untyped` argument is expected in its place and not try to compile the
expression if it is but this would require a bit of reorganizing the
code here and IMO it's better to have the information of what type it
would be if it can be typed.

The problem is that for *any* body of a generic declaration,
[semstmts](2e4d344b43/compiler/semstmts.nim (L1610-L1611))
sets the sym of its value to the generic type name, and
[semtypes](2e4d344b43/compiler/semtypes.nim (L2143))
just directly gives the referenced type *specifically* when the
expression is a generic body. I'm blaming `semtypes` here because it's
responsible for the type given but the exact opposite behavior
specifically written in makes me think generating an alias type here
maybe breaks something.
fixes#10753, fixes#22021, refs #19365 (was fixed by #22029, but more
faithful test added)
For whatever reason `compileTime` proc calls did not fold if the proc
was generic ([since this folding was
introduced](c25ffbf262 (diff-539da3a63df08fa987f1b0c67d26cdc690753843d110b6bf0805a685eeaffd40))).
I'm guessing the intention was for *unresolved* generic procs to not
fold, which is now the logic.
Non-magic `compileTime` procs also now don't fold at compile time in
`typeof` contexts to avoid possible runtime errors (only the important)
and prevent double/needless evaluation.
fixes#23689
Normally pure enum symbols only "exist" in lookup if nothing else with
the same name is in scope. But if an expression is expected to be an
enum type, we know that ambiguity can be resolved between different
symbols based on their type, so we can include the normally inaccessible
pure enum fields in the ambiguity resolution in the case that the
expected enum type is actually a pure enum. This handles the use case in
the issue of the type inference for enums reverted in #23588.
I know pure enums are supposed to be on their way out so this might seem
excessive, but the `pure` pragma can't be removed in the code in the
issue due to a redefinition error, they have to be separated into
different modules. Normal enums can still resolve the ambiguity here
though. I always think about making a list of all the remaining use
cases for pure enums and I always forget.
Will close#23694 if CI passes
fixes#22850
The `is` operator checks the type of the left hand side, and if it's
generic or if it's a `typedesc` type with no base type, it leaves it to
be evaluated later. But `typedesc` types with no base type precisely
describe the default typeclass `type`/`typeclass`, so this condition is
removed. Maybe at some point this represented an unresolved generic
type?
fixes#22571
Removes the hack added in #13589 which made non-top-level object type
symbols `gensym` because they couldn't be mangled into different names
for codegen vs. top-level types. Now we consider the new `disamb` field
(added in #21667) of the type symbols in the type hash (which is used
for the mangled name) to differentiate between the types.
In other parts of the compiler, specifically the [proc
mangling](298ada3412/compiler/mangleutils.nim (L59)),
`itemId.item` is used instead of the `disamb` field, but I didn't use it
in case it's the outdated method.
Previous example wouldn't run unless `std/posix` was imported and it
wasn't mentioned anywhere in the docs.
Other changes in the example:
- replaced magic number with constant `MaxWatches` .
- changed seq buffer to array, because length is already constant +
pointer is a bit nicer: `addr seq[0]` vs `addr arr`
- added example for getting a `cstring` name value from `InotifyEvent`
struct with explicit cast.
- added a bit more description to `inotify_init1` (copied from `man
inotify(7)`)

Provides a fix for #23817.
With target `arm-none-eabi`, GCC defines `int32_t` to `long int`. Nim
uses `__builtin_sadd_overflow` for 32-bit targets, but this emits
warnings on GCC releases 13 and under, while generating an error on GCC
14. More info regarding this
[here](https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/porting_to.html#c) and
[here](https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-cvs/2023-December/394351.html).
The proposed PR attempts to address this issue for these targets by
defining the `nimAddInt`, `nimSubInt`, and `nimMulInt` macros to use the
appropriate compiler intrinsics for this platform.
As for as we know, the LLVM toolchain for bare metal Arm does not define
`int32_t` as `long int` and has no need for this patch. Thus, we only
define the above macros for GCC targeting `arm-non-eabi`.

Turns the `nfOpenSym` node flag implemented in #23091 and extended in
#23102 and #23873, into a node kind `nkOpenSym` that forms a unary node
containing either `nkSym` or `nkOpenSymChoice`. Since this affects
macros working on generic proc AST, the node kind is now only generated
when the experimental switch `genericsOpenSym` is enabled, and a new
node flag `nfDisabledOpenSym` is set to the `nkSym` or `nkOpenSymChoice`
when the switch is not enabled so that we can give a warning.
Now that the experimental switch has more reasonable semantics, we
define `nimHasGenericsOpenSym2`.
…s enabled at compile time.
#8644 This doesn't handle the case if `{.push experimental.}` is used,
but at least we can test if a feature was enabled globally.
Currently `cpuinfo.countProcessor` uses hard-coded `HW_AVAILCPU=25` for
both MacOS and BSD;
However,
[There is no HW_AVAILCPU on FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD](
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132542)
Also, `HW_AVAILCPU` is undocmented in MacOS,
while `sysctlbyname("hw.logicalcpu",...)` is documented and used
by many other languages' implementations, like
[Haskell](https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/blob/master/rts/posix/OSThreads.c?ref_type=heads#L376)
---
This PR:
- use `importc` value instead of hard-coded values for `HW_*` macros.
- use "hw.logicialcpu" over undocumented HW_AVAILCPU.
- reduce 2 elements of `mib` array when calling `sysctl` as they're no
use.
actually fixes#23865 following up #23873
In the handling of `nkIdent` in `semExpr`, the compiler looks for the
closest symbol with the name and [checks the symbol
kind](6126a0bf46/compiler/semexprs.nim (L3171))
to also consider the overloads if the symbol kind is overloadable. But
it treats the normally overloadable template/macro/module sym kinds the
same as non-overloadable symbols, just calling `semSym` on it. We need
to mirror this behavior in `semOpenSym`; we treat the captured symchoice
as a fresh identifier, so if the symbol we find is a
template/macro/module, we use that symbol immediately as opposed to
waiting for overloads.
If we need keep readabilities for functions' names, we might put the
original names in the comments or in the identifiers like what currently
has been done.
The new nimble having been shipped since Nim 2.0.0 uses a directory
ending with a full hash of a commit for cloned repos, the function names
are burderen by this. This PR strips these from package paths and
prepends "pkg" for readability.

The node flag `nfOpenSym` implemented in #23091 for sym nodes is now
also implemented for open symchoices. This means the intended behavior
is still achieved when multiple overloads are in scope to be captured,
so the issue is fixed. The code for the flag is documented and moved
into a helper proc and the experimental switch is now enabled for the
compiler test suite.
