These functions allow for defining pattern fragments usable within the `match` and `rewrite` sections of a pattern. The main structure of Constraints and Rewrites functions are the same, and are similar to functions in other languages; they contain a signature (i.e. name, argument list, result list) and a body: ```pdll // Constraint that takes a value as an input, and produces a value: Constraint Cst(arg: Value) -> Value { ... } // Constraint that returns multiple values: Constraint Cst() -> (result1: Value, result2: ValueRange); ``` When returning multiple results, each result can be optionally be named (the result of a Constraint/Rewrite in the case of multiple results is a tuple). These body of a Constraint/Rewrite functions can be specified in several ways: * Externally In this case we are importing an external function (registered by the user outside of PDLL): ```pdll Constraint Foo(op: Op); Rewrite Bar(); ``` * In PDLL (using PDLL constructs) In this case, the body is defined using PDLL constructs: ```pdll Rewrite BuildFooOp() { // The result type of the Rewrite is inferred from the return. return op<my_dialect.foo>; } // Constraints/Rewrites can also implement a lambda/expression // body for simple one line bodies. Rewrite BuildFooOp() => op<my_dialect.foo>; ``` * In PDLL (using a native/C++ code block) In this case the body is specified using a C++(or potentially other language at some point) code block. When building PDLL in AOT mode this will generate a native constraint/rewrite and register it with the PDL bytecode. ```pdll Rewrite BuildFooOp() -> Op<my_dialect.foo> [{ return rewriter.create<my_dialect::FooOp>(...); }]; ``` Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D115836
