Línea de trabajo

Start by reading whale/src/codegen/expression.rs:23 and the existing layout intrinsic entry points referenced in the issue. Before implementing, discuss the target size/alignment contract with @LunaStev, since the issue explicitly leaves its authoritative source unresolved. Run the compiler’s size_of capability probe and inspect layout lowering; done means supported scalar, alias, and aggregate layouts match the selected Wave target contract, size_of and align_of share those facts, and missing facts produce clear errors with output preserved.

Descripción

discussion enhancement help wanted

Motivation

A std::mem::layout size_of() call succeeds through LLVM but Whale treats __wave_size_of as an unsupported intrinsic/external call. align_of belongs to the same target-layout contract.

Starting point: whale/src/codegen/expression.rs:23.

Validation

Audited canonical Wave 540728c2eb6cc12f5c69c3fb3fdb96e07ba059a4 (0.0.1-alpha-dev), whose tree matches the local checkout. Validation: Executed size_of capability probe and inspected existing layout intrinsic entry points. Executed compiler probes use the matching checkout-built compiler and std on Linux amd64 (Rust 1.89.0 / LLVM 21.1.8). Source/header or mocked checks are not native execution on another OS.

Scope

Agree how authoritative target size/alignment facts reach the adapter, then lower the supported intrinsic subset. Host Rust size_of and backend guesses must not define Wave layout.

Related: #996, #881. These links do not claim those broader or completed scopes are unfinished.

Design discussion required

This issue records a proposal or an unresolved contract; it is not approval to choose new semantics. Please mention @LunaStev to discuss the design before starting implementation.

Completion criteria

  • Supported scalar/alias/aggregate layouts match the selected Wave target contract.
  • size_of and align_of use the same authoritative facts.
  • Missing or unsupported layout facts are clear source/internal errors as appropriate, with output preservation.
