Spurious error for pack expansions in nested generic lambdas [GH #491] - #492
Previously, valid pack expansions, sizeof... operands, and fold expressions in
nested generic lambdas (for example, in default arguments or exception
specifications) could be rejected during instantiation with spurious missing
parameter pack errors. For example, with --c++14 -tused:
int f() {
auto g = [](auto... x) {
return [](auto, int n = sizeof...(x)) { return n; }(0);
};
return g(1, 2); // Previously a spurious error, now okay.
}
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Fixed spurious parameter-pack errors in nested generic lambdas using valid pack expansions, sizeof..., default arguments, and fold expressions.
Valid pack-related code is now accepted during instantiation.
Tests
Added regression coverage across C++ language versions and updated expected compiler diagnostics.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
The compiler now tracks pack expansions found by earlier scans in nested generic-lambda contexts. This state affects pack-reference checks and diagnostic handling. Regression tests cover default arguments, pack expansions, exception specifications, enclosing-pack restoration, and fold expressions. Expected diagnostic outputs are updated.
Changes: Nested generic-lambda pack handling
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Record pack expansion state src/scope_stk.h, src/scope_stk.c, src/pending_changes/gh-491.txt
The pack-expansion stack entry gains a recorded_pack_expansion flag. Applicable scans set it, and stack cleanup restores enclosing pack values when an expansion descriptor exists or enclosing packs were reset.
Apply recorded expansion state src/scope_stk.c, src/expr.c
Current-context checks recognize previously recorded expansions. The compiler suppresses related no-packs and non-pack identifier diagnostics when an earlier scan recorded an expansion.
New tests cover nested-lambda default arguments, pack expansions, exception specifications, enclosing-pack restoration, and fold expressions. Test configurations select multiple language modes and compiler settings.
Spurious error nodes in IL for empty pack expansions #500: The issue describes spurious error nodes and types in nested generic-lambda pack expansions. This change updates pack-expansion tracking in a related instantiation path, but whether it removes those error nodes is not established.

The enclosing-pack cleanup concern is addressed at the reviewed head. No remaining issue has been established that should delay merging after normal checks.

Explanation
The title names the main change: a spurious error for pack expansions in nested generic lambdas, which the raw summary and objectives both describe as the fix in src/expr.c and src/scope_stk.c. It also names the linked issue (GH #491). The title is specific and matches the changeset, so it passes.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#491] Requirement: valid pack expansions, sizeof... operands, and fold expressions in nested generic lambdas must compile without spurious missing-parameter-pack errors during instantiation, including in default arguments and exception specifications.
Evidence from the whole-PR change summary:
src/expr.c: the sizeof... error path now sets err only when pesep->recorded_pack_expansion is false. This removes the spurious error for the sizeof... operand case.
src/scope_stk.c: end_potential_pack_expansion_context suppresses the no-packs diagnostic when an expansion was previously recorded. any_packs_referenced_in_curr_context reports such recorded expansions.
tests/tests/regressions/Spurious missing-parameter-pack errors in nested generic lambdas #491.sft.cpp: covers noexcept with captured packs, sizeof... in a lambda exception specification, a captured pack in a default argument, and a fold expression. These match the contexts named in #491.
Regression fixtures tests/tests/regressions/.gh-491.rto/default.1.1 to default.5.1 run the test with -tused under several language modes.
Imported clang and EDG expectation files for cxx1y-generic-lambdas remove the spurious pack-expansion and sizeof... diagnostics (total errors 30 to 25). The function-pointer conversion errors remain, as expected.
The PR description example (sizeof...(x) in a default argument, C++14, -tused) is now accepted.
CI reports success.
Residual uncertainty (does not change the verdict):
The issue reproduces with --c++20. The new regression tests use C++14, C++17, and ms_c++20 modes. The summary shows no language-mode-specific logic in the fix, so the fix path does not depend on C++20.
The second reproducer (g(decltype(x){}...) in a default argument) is not named explicitly in the current test summary. Coverage is inferred from the captured-pack default-argument case and the removed pack-expansion diagnostics in the imported expectations.
tests/expectations/edg_x86_64/imported.log is in ignored_files. It was not inspected and was not needed for this coding requirement.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
Each changed file connects to the #491 fix or its verification:
src/expr.c and src/scope_stk.c: logic changes for the spurious pack-expansion and sizeof... diagnostics.
src/scope_stk.h: adds the recorded_pack_expansion flag required by the fix. The same struct also changes several existing flags from a_byte_boolean or a_boolean to one-bit a_bit_field members. This is a small refactor inside the struct the fix modifies. It does not change behavior for unrelated code, so it is not a concrete out-of-scope change.
tests/tests/imported/clang/cpp/SemaCXX/.cxx1y-generic-lambdas.rto/* and edg expectation files: removal of diagnostics that the fix no longer produces. Retained diagnostics are unchanged.
tests/tests/imported/clang/cpp/SemaTemplate/.generic-lambda.rto/default.1.1.txt: removal of one expected diagnostic that the fix no longer produces.
No changed file was shown to be unrelated to pack expansions in generic lambdas. tests/expectations/edg_x86_64/imported.log is in ignored_files and was not reviewed. It is excluded and does not affect this result.

Add a value check for the sizeof... default argument.
The regression test calls g(1, 2) but does not check that default_argument::f() returns 2. Add a value-sensitive test so a count of 1 cannot pass.

Update the regression test for `default_argument::f()` to assert that calling
`g(1, 2)` returns 2, rather than only checking that the call succeeds. Keep the
test focused on verifying the `sizeof...` default-argument value.
