Root Cause: - Else blocks were not propagating variable assignments to outer scope - Bug 1 (if_form.rs): PHI materialization happened before variable_map reset, causing PHI nodes to be lost - Bug 2 (phi.rs): Variable merge didn't check if else branch modified variables Changes: - src/mir/builder/if_form.rs:93-127 - Reordered: reset variable_map BEFORE materializing PHI nodes - Now matches then-branch pattern (reset → materialize → execute) - Applied to both "else" and "no else" branches for consistency - src/mir/builder/phi.rs:137-154 - Added else_modified_var check to detect variable modifications - Use modified value from else_var_map_end_opt when available - Fall back to pre-if value only when truly not modified Test Results: ✅ Simple block: { x=42 } → 42 ✅ If block: if 1 { x=42 } → 42 ✅ Else block: if 0 { x=99 } else { x=42 } → 42 (FIXED!) ✅ Stage-B body extraction: "return 42" correctly extracted (was null) Impact: - Else block variable assignments now work correctly - Stage-B compiler body extraction restored - Selfhost builder path can now function - Foundation for Phase 21.x progress 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Smokes v2 — Minimal Runner and Policy
Policy
- Use [SKIP:] prefix for environment/host dependent skips.
- Examples: [SKIP] hakorune not built, [SKIP:env] plugin path missing
- Keep reasons short and stable to allow grep-based canaries.
- Prefer JSON-only output in CI: set
NYASH_JSON_ONLY=1to avoid noisy logs. - Diagnostics lines like
[provider/select:*]are filtered by default inlib/test_runner.sh.- Toggle: set
HAKO_SILENT_TAGS=0to disable filtering and show raw logs.HAKO_SHOW_CALL_LOGS=1also bypasses filtering.
- Toggle: set
Helpers
tools/smokes/v2/lib/mir_canary.shprovides:extract_mir_from_output— between [MIR_BEGIN]/[MIR_END]assert_has_tokens,assert_skip_tag,assert_order,assert_token_count
tools/lib/canary.shprovides minimal, harness-agnostic aliases:extract_mir_between_tags— same asextract_mir_from_outputrequire_tokens token...— fail if any token missing
Notes
- Avoid running heavy integration smokes in CI by default. Use
--profile quick. - When a test depends on external tools (e.g., LLVM), prefer
[SKIP:<reason>]over failure.
Quick tips
- EXE-heavy cases (e.g.,
phase2100/*) may take longer. When running quick with these tests, pass a larger timeout like--timeout 120. - Smokes v2 auto-cleans temporary crate EXE objects created under
/tmp(pattern:ny_crate_backend_exe_*.o) after the run.
