believers in ANSI compatibility and all, (1) there's no obvious
simple way to do it (short of disabling all warnings for type
mismatches everywhere), and (2) there's a good portable

The restriction against issuing a warning for type mismatches
between a slot-initform and the corresponding slot's :TYPE
option is necessary because a slot-initform must be specified
in order to specify slot options; in some cases, no suitable
default may exist.
- In SBCL, as in CMU CL (or, for that matter, any compiler which
- really understands Common Lisp types) a suitable default does
- exist, in all cases, because the compiler understands the concept
- of functions which never return (i.e. has return type NIL, e.g.
- ERROR). Thus, as a portable workaround, you can use a call to
- some known-never-to-return function as the default. E.g.

c: (COERCE 'AND 'FUNCTION) returns something related to

- (SUBTYPEP '(AND ZILCH INTEGER) 'ZILCH) => NIL, NIL
- Note: I looked into fixing this in 0.6.11.15, but gave up. The

- the subtypep operation, HAIRY :COMPLEX-SUBTYPEP-ARG2 and
- INTERSECTION :COMPLEX-SUBTYPEP-ARG1, and only the first is
- called. This could be fixed, but type dispatch is messy and
- confusing enough already, I don't want to complicate it further.
- Perhaps someday we can make CLOS cross-compiled (instead of compiled
- after bootstrapping) so that we don't need to have the type system
- available before CLOS, and then we can rewrite the type methods to
- CLOS methods, and then expressing the solutions to stuff like this

- (old-inst sb!c-call:unsigned-long))
- in SBCL-0.pre7.86.flaky7.22 after warm init fails with an error
- cannot use values types here
- probably because the SB-C-CALL:VOID type gets translated to (VALUES).
- It should be valid to use VOID for a function return type, so perhaps
- instead of calling SPECIFIER-TYPE (which excludes all VALUES types
- automatically) we should call VALUES-SPECIFIER-TYPE and handle VALUES
- types manually, allowing the special case (VALUES) but still excluding
- all more-complex VALUES types.

- (SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE) output should start with something

- the nice useful names in 0.6.13.
-
- Note for those who observe that this is an annoying
- bug and doesn't belong in a release: See the "note for the
- ambitious", below.
-
- Note for the ambitious: This is an important bug and I'd
- really like to fix it and spent many hours on it. The
- obvious ways to fix it are hard, because the underlying
- infrastructure seems to be rather broken.
- * There are two mostly-separate systems for storing names,
- the in-the-function-object system used by e.g.
- CL:FUNCTION-LAMBDA-EXPRESSION and the
- in-the-DEBUG-FUN-object system used by e.g. BACKTRACE.
- The code as of sbcl-0.pre7.94 is smart enough to set
- up the first value, but not the second (because I naively
- assumed that one mechanism is enough, and didn't proof
- read the entire system to see whether there might be
- another mechanism?! argh...)
- * The systems are not quite separate, but instead weirdly and
- fragilely coupled by the FUN-DEBUG-FUN algorithm.
- * If you try to refactor this dain bramage away, reducing
- things to a single system -- I tried to add a
- %SIMPLE-FUN-DEBUG-FUN slot, planning eventually to get
- rid of the old %SIMPLE-FUN-NAME slot in favor of indirection
- through the new slot -- you get torpedoed by the fragility
- of the SIMPLE-FUN primitive object. Just adding the
- new slot, without making any other changes in the system,
- is enough to make the system fail with what look like
- memory corruption problems in warm init.
- But please do fix some or all of the problem, I'm tired
- of messing with it. -- WHN 2001-12-22

-IR1-4:

+140:
+ (reported by Alexey Dejneka sbcl-devel 2002-01-03)
+
+ SUBTYPEP does not work well with redefined classes:

+
+ This bug was fixed in sbcl-0.7.4.1 by invalidating the PCL wrapper
+ class upon redefinition. Unfortunately, doing so causes bug #176 to
+ appear. Pending further investication, one or other of these bugs
+ might be present at any given time.
+
+141:

+142:
+ (as reported by Lynn Quam on cmucl-imp ca. 2002-01-16)
+ %NATURALIZE-C-STRING conses a lot, like 16 bytes per byte
+ of the naturalized string. We could probably port the patches
+ from the cmucl-imp mailing list.
+
+143:
+ (reported by Jesse Bouwman 2001-10-24 through the unfortunately
+ prominent SourceForge web/db bug tracking system, which is
+ unfortunately not a reliable way to get a timely response from
+ the SBCL maintainers)
+ In the course of trying to build a test case for an
+ application error, I encountered this behavior:
+ If you start up sbcl, and then lay on CTRL-C for a
+ minute or two, the lisp process will eventually say:
+ %PRIMITIVE HALT called; the party is over.
+ and throw you into the monitor. If I start up lisp,
+ attach to the process with strace, and then do the same
+ (abusive) thing, I get instead:
+ access failure in heap page not marked as write-protected
+ and the monitor again. I don't know enough to have the
+ faintest idea of what is going on here.
+ This is with sbcl 6.12, uname -a reports:
+ Linux prep 2.2.19 #4 SMP Tue Apr 24 13:59:52 CDT 2001 i686 unknown
+ I (WHN) have verified that the same thing occurs on sbcl-0.pre7.141
+ under OpenBSD 2.9 on my X86 laptop. Do be patient when you try it:
+ it took more than two minutes (but less than five) for me.
+
+144:
+ (This was once known as IR1-4, but it lived on even after the
+ IR1 interpreter went to the big bit bucket in the sky.)
The system accepts DECLAIM in most places where DECLARE would be
accepted, without even issuing a warning. ANSI allows this, but since
it's fairly easy to mistype DECLAIM instead of DECLARE, and the
interpreter is gone, the system's notion of what's a top-level form
and what's not will remain too confused to fix this problem.]
-IR1-6:
- (another wishlist thing..) Reimplement DEFMACRO to be basically
- like DEFMACRO-MUNDANELY, just using EVAL-WHEN.
+145:
+ ANSI allows types `(COMPLEX ,FOO) to use very hairy values for
+ FOO, e.g. (COMPLEX (AND REAL (SATISFIES ODDP))). The old CMU CL
+ COMPLEX implementation didn't deal with this, and hasn't been
+ upgraded to do so. (This doesn't seem to be a high priority
+ conformance problem, since seems hard to construct useful code
+ where it matters.)
+
+146:
+ Floating point errors are reported poorly. E.g. on x86 OpenBSD
+ with sbcl-0.7.1,
+ * (expt 2.0 12777)
+ debugger invoked on condition of type SB-KERNEL:FLOATING-POINT-EXCEPTION:
+ An arithmetic error SB-KERNEL:FLOATING-POINT-EXCEPTION was signalled.
+ No traps are enabled? How can this be?
+ It should be possible to be much more specific (overflow, division
+ by zero, etc.) and of course the "How can this be?" should be fixable.
+
+ See also bugs #45.c and #183
+
+148:
+ In sbcl-0.7.1.3 on x86, COMPILE-FILE on the file
+ (in-package :cl-user)

+ The value NIL is not of type SB-C::NODE.
+ The location of this failure has moved around as various related
+ issues were cleaned up. As of sbcl-0.7.1.9, it occurs in
+ NODE-BLOCK called by LAMBDA-COMPONENT called by IR2-CONVERT-CLOSURE.
+
+153:
+ (essentially the same problem as a CMU CL bug reported by Martin
+ Cracauer on cmucl-imp 2002-02-19)
+ There is a hole in structure slot type checking. Compiling and LOADing
+ (declaim (optimize safety))
+ (defstruct foo

+ (format t "Is ~a of type ~a a cons? => ~a~%"
+ (foo-bla foo)
+ (type-of (foo-bla foo))
+ (consp (foo-bla foo)))))
+ (f)
+ should signal an error, but in sbcl-0.7.1.21 instead gives the output
+ Is (1 . 1) of type CONS a cons? => NIL
+ without signalling an error.
+
+157:
+ Functions SUBTYPEP, TYPEP, UPGRADED-ARRAY-ELEMENT-TYPE, and
+ UPGRADED-COMPLEX-PART-TYPE should have an optional environment argument.
+ (reported by Alexey Dejneka sbcl-devel 2002-04-12)
+
+162:
+ (reported by Robert E. Brown 2002-04-16)
+ When a function is called with too few arguments, causing the
+ debugger to be entered, the uninitialized slots in the bad call frame
+ seem to cause GCish problems, being interpreted as tagged data even
+ though they're not. In particular, executing ROOM in the
+ debugger at that point causes AVER failures:
+ * (machine-type)
+ "X86"
+ * (lisp-implementation-version)
+ "0.7.2.12"
+ * (typep 10)
+ ...
+ 0] (room)
+ ...
+ failed AVER: "(SAP= CURRENT END)"
+ (Christophe Rhodes reports that this doesn't occur on the SPARC, which
+ isn't too surprising since there are many differences in stack
+ implementation and GC conservatism between the X86 and other ports.)
+
+165:
+ Array types with element-types of some unknown type are falsely being
+ assumed to be of type (ARRAY T) by the compiler in some cases. The
+ following code demonstrates the problem:
+
+ (defun foo (x)
+ (declare (type (vector bar) x))
+ (aref x 1))
+ (deftype bar () 'single-float)
+ (foo (make-array 3 :element-type 'bar))
+ -> TYPE-ERROR "The value #(0.0 0.0 0.0) is not of type (VECTOR BAR)."
+ (typep (make-array 3 :element-type 'bar) '(vector bar))
+ -> T
+
+ The easy solution is to make the functions which depend on knowing
+ the upgraded-array-element-type (in compiler/array-tran and
+ compiler/generic/vm-tran as of sbcl-0.7.3.x) be slightly smarter about
+ unknown types; an alternative is to have the
+ specialized-element-type slot in the ARRAY-TYPE structure be
+ *WILD-TYPE* for UNKNOWN-TYPE element types.

+ The problem seems to be that the code walker used by the DEFMETHOD

+ is giving an unclear error message.
+
+168:
+ (reported by Dan Barlow on sbcl-devel 2002-05-10)
+ In sbcl-0.7.3.12, doing
+ (defstruct foo bar baz)
+ (compile nil (lambda (x) (or x (foo-baz x))))
+ gives an error
+ debugger invoked on condition of type SB-INT:BUG:
+ full call to SB-KERNEL:%INSTANCE-REF
+ This is probably a bug in SBCL itself. [...]
+ Since this is a reasonable user error, it shouldn't be reported as
+ an SBCL bug.
+
+171:
+ (reported by Pierre Mai while investigating bug 47):
+ (DEFCLASS FOO () ((A :SILLY T)))
+ signals a SIMPLE-ERROR, not a PROGRAM-ERROR.
+
+172:
+ sbcl's treatment of at least macro lambda lists is too permissive;
+ e.g., in sbcl-0.7.3.7:
+ (defmacro foo (&rest rest bar) `(,bar ,rest))
+ (macroexpand '(foo quux zot)) -> (QUUX (QUUX ZOT))
+ whereas section 3.4.4 of the CLHS doesn't allow required parameters
+ to come after the rest argument.
+
+173:
+ The compiler sometimes tries to constant-fold expressions before
+ it checks to see whether they can be reached. This can lead to
+ bogus warnings about errors in the constant folding, e.g. in code
+ like
+ (WHEN X
+ (WRITE-STRING (> X 0) "+" "0"))
+ compiled in a context where the compiler can prove that X is NIL,
+ and the compiler complains that (> X 0) causes a type error because
+ NIL isn't a valid argument to #'>. Until sbcl-0.7.4.10 or so this
+ caused a full WARNING, which made the bug really annoying because then
+ COMPILE and COMPILE-FILE returned FAILURE-P=T for perfectly legal
+ code. Since then the warning has been downgraded to STYLE-WARNING,
+ so it's still a bug but at least it's a little less annoying.
+
+174:
+ The error message from attempting to use a #\Return format
+ directive:
+ (format nil "~^M") ; replace "^M" with a literal #\Return
+ debugger invoked on condition of type SB-FORMAT::FORMAT-ERROR:
+ error in format: unknown format directive
+ ~
+ ^
+ is not terribly helpful; this is more noticeable than parallel cases
+ with e.g. #\Backspace because of the differing newline conventions
+ on various operating systems. (reported by Harald Hanche-Olsen on
+ cmucl-help 2002-05-31)
+
+176:
+ reported by Alexey Dejneka 08 Jun 2002 in sbcl-devel:
+ Playing with McCLIM, I've received an error "Unbound variable WRAPPER
+ in SB-PCL::CHECK-WRAPPER-VALIDITY".
+ (defun check-wrapper-validity (instance)
+ (let* ((owrapper (wrapper-of instance)))
+ (if (not (invalid-wrapper-p owrapper))
+ owrapper
+ (let* ((state (wrapper-state wrapper)) ; !!!
+ ...
+ I've tried to replace it with OWRAPPER, but now OBSOLETE-INSTANCE-TRAP
+ breaks with "NIL is not of type SB-KERNEL:LAYOUT".
+ SBCL 0.7.4.13.
+ partial fix: The undefined variable WRAPPER resulted from an error
+ in recent refactoring, as can be seen by comparing to the code in e.g.
+ sbcl-0.7.2. Replacing WRAPPER with OWRAPPER (done by WHN in sbcl-0.7.4.22)
+ should bring the code back to its behavior as of sbcl-0.7.2, but
+ that still leaves the OBSOLETE-INSTANCE-TRAP bug. An example of
+ input which triggers that bug is
+ (dotimes (i 20)
+ (let ((lastname (intern (format nil "C~D" (1- i))))
+ (name (intern (format nil "C~D" i))))
+ (eval `(defclass ,name

+ Compiling
+ (in-package :cl-user)
+ (defun bar (x)
+ (declare (type 0 x))
+ (cons x x))
+ signals
+ bad thing to be a type specifier: 0

+
+183: "IEEE floating point issues"
+ Even where floating point handling is being dealt with relatively
+ well (as of sbcl-0.7.5, on sparc/sunos and alpha; see bug #146), the

+ (reported even more verbosely on sbcl-devel 2002-06-28 as "strange
+ bug in DEFTRANSFORM")
+ After the file below is compiled and loaded in sbcl-0.7.5, executing
+ (TCX (MAKE-ARRAY 4 :FILL-POINTER 2) 0)
+ at the REPL returns an adjustable vector, which is wrong. Presumably
+ somehow the DERIVE-TYPE information for the output values of %WAD is
