Closes #337.

Summary

  • intern parser semantic contexts behind compact store-local IDs and remap them alongside prediction contexts when shared DFA stores are unioned
  • replace inline per-lexer-config action vectors with thin clone-on-write shared payloads, while compacting optional lexer rule indices
  • preserve semantic/provenance/action equality and cache identity through collision-checked interning and content materialization at DFA, continuation, and accept boundaries
  • account for parser semantic/provenance arenas and lexer action traces in the public DFA statistics surfaces

Layout

Type (64-bit) Before After
AtnConfig release 64 B 40 B
AtnConfig debug 72 B 48 B
AtnConfigKey 56 B 24 B
LexerConfig 64 B 40 B
LexerConfigKey 64 B 32 B

Non-empty lexer payloads detach only when a path appends or prunes an action. Old growing prefixes are reclaimed when their configs leave scope, and nested lexing through the same shared DFA cannot invalidate an outer config's payload.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Lexer action traces and parser semantic contexts now use interned arena IDs. Lexer and parser DFA paths resolve, transform, remap, and account for these records. Public DFA statistics and compact-layout tests were added.

Changes

Prediction and DFA storage

Layer / File(s) Summary
Lexer compact storage
crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/lexer.rs, crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/atn/lexer.rs
Lexer configurations now use compact rule indices and interned action-trace IDs. The action arena supports interning, transformation, reset, collision checks, and retained-size accounting.
Lexer prediction and DFA integration
crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/atn/lexer.rs, crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/atn/lexer_dfa.rs
Lexer prediction, cache restoration, continuation compilation, accept selection, pruning, and DFA construction now resolve action traces through the shared arena.
Parser semantic-context arena
crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/prediction.rs, crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/atn/parser.rs
Parser configurations and keys now store SemanticContextId values. The arena handles interning, combination, import, validation, collision checks, and memory accounting.
Parser prediction and store remapping
crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/atn/parser.rs, crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/dfa.rs
Parser prediction resolves arena-backed semantic contexts. Store and DFA merges remap semantic-context IDs alongside prediction-context IDs. Parser statistics include semantic-context and provenance storage.
DFA statistics API
crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/lexer.rs, crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/generated.rs, crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/lib.rs
Lexer DFA statistics are exposed through base and generated lexer APIs. Prediction reset clears the action-trace arena.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to 0bb4a

The change may prevent required parser tail-call elision in some full-context cases, so merge should wait for that behavior to be corrected; the public lexer statistics type also has a bounded future compatibility concern.

P1 Badge Avoid quadratic storage for growing lexer action traces

When a repeating lexer path executes a non-prunable action such as a custom action, each character extends the prior trace sequence by one entry, and this line stores a complete copy of every successive prefix. A token with n such actions therefore leaves 1 + 2 + … + n traces in the arena instead of the previous linear peak; for long user-controlled tokens this can consume gigabytes or exhaust memory, and reset() subsequently clears lengths without releasing those capacities. Store traces as shared prefixes/nodes, or otherwise avoid retaining every full intermediate sequence.

Fixed in b76af4a. Lexer configs now hold a thin clone-on-write shared payload instead of a flat arena ID. Appending detaches only the mutated path, and old growing prefixes are released when their configs leave scope. Added action_trace_lists_do_not_retain_growing_prefixes to exercise 1,024 successive prefixes.

P2 Badge Keep in-flight action IDs valid across shared-cache reentry

When a semantic-predicate callback lexes with another lexer for the same grammar, both generated lexers can share this DFA cache, and the nested match resets the shared action arena while the outer match still holds LexerActionTraceIds. If the outer path accumulated an action before reaching the predicate, resuming it can either panic because its record was removed or resolve the reused ID to the nested match's traces and execute incorrect actions. Per-match action storage must not be reset through the shared cache while another prediction can be in flight.

Fixed in b76af4a. Action payloads are now self-contained Arc-backed clone-on-write values, not store-local IDs, so nested lexing through the same shared DFA cannot invalidate an outer config. Added nested_shared_lexer_prediction_preserves_outer_action_payload, with an outer action before a predicate and a nested match at a different input position.

2269-2313: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Use ContextArena::is_empty for parser tail-call elision.

Lines 2295-2304 use has_empty_path. A full-context merged context can retain an empty path without being EMPTY_CONTEXT. This condition then prevents required tail-call elision for that context.

Use is_empty for this parser-only condition. Update the full-context empty-path regression to expect elision.

Proposed fix
-        let context_has_empty_path = self.store.contexts.has_empty_path(config.context);
+        let context_is_empty = self.store.contexts.is_empty(config.context);
         let elide_tail_call = transition_kind == ParserTransitionKind::Rule
             && transition.is_tail_call()
             && !self.track_prediction_rule_calls
-            && (!context_has_empty_path || (!full_context && !self.tail_call_preserves_sll));
+            && (!context_is_empty || (!full_context && !self.tail_call_preserves_sll));

Based on learnings: parser tail-call elision must use ContextArena::is_empty, not ContextArena::has_empty_path.

Intern parser semantic contexts behind compact store-local IDs so ordinary configs no longer carry the full semantic enum. Remap those IDs when overlapping shared DFA stores are unioned, and account for semantic and provenance payload arenas in parser DFA statistics.

Share non-empty lexer action traces through thin clone-on-write payloads and compact rule indices so action-free configs shrink to 40 bytes and keys to 32. Payloads detach only on mutation, release old growing prefixes, remain valid across nested shared-cache predictions, and materialize only at cache, continuation, and accept boundaries.

@coderabbitai I reviewed the outside-diff parser tail-call suggestion and am not applying it. The has_empty_path condition is unchanged from #345 and is deliberate: a full-context merged context can contain both an empty path and non-empty callers, so eliding its frame would discard the conservative empty-path completion semantics. marked_tail_calls_reuse_contexts_under_the_selected_sll_policy explicitly covers the merged full-context empty-path case, and the corrected head passes all 357 conformance cases with zero skips.

@tinovyatkin Thanks for the detailed clarification. I verified the current condition and marked_tail_calls_reuse_contexts_under_the_selected_sll_policy.

The test confirms that a full-context merge can be non-empty while it has an empty path. In this case, epsilon_target_config retains the return frame. The original ContextArena::is_empty recommendation would elide that frame. The review finding was incorrect and is withdrawn.

A stored learning from #345 conflicts with this verified behavior. Please confirm that it is obsolete if you want it removed.

Learning: In `crates/antlr-rust-runtime/src/atn/parser.rs`, parser tail-call elision must use `ContextArena::is_empty`, not `ContextArena::has_empty_path`. This matches the pinned fork parser condition `PredictionContext.isEmptyLocal(context)`, where only the `EMPTY_LOCAL` sentinel prevents elision. SLL context merges use `root_is_wildcard=true`, so an empty path collapses to `EMPTY_CONTEXT`; a full-context merged context can retain an empty path and must remain eligible for parser tail-call elision. The lexer intentionally differs because its upstream tail-call condition uses `!context.hasEmpty()`.
