We initially created the static visit_type_FOO_fields() helper
function for reuse of code - we have cases where the initial
setup for a visit has different allocation (depending on whether
the fields represent a stand-alone type or are embedded as part
of a larger type), but where the actual field visits are
identical once a pointer is available.
Up until the previous patch, visit_type_FOO_fields() was only
used for structs (no variants), so it was covering every field
for each type where it was emitted.
Meanwhile, the code for visiting unions looks like:
static visit_type_U_fields() {
visit base;
visit local_members;
}
visit_type_U() {
visit_start_struct();
visit_type_U_fields();
visit variants;
visit_end_struct();
}
which splits the fields of the union visit across two functions.
Move the code to visit variants to live inside visit_type_U_fields(),
while making it conditional on having variants so that all other
instances of the helper function remain unchanged. This is also
a step closer towards unifying struct and union visits, and towards
allowing one union type to be the branch of another flat union.
The resulting diff to the generated code is a bit hard to read,
but it can be verified that it touches only union types, and that
the end result is the following general structure:
static visit_type_U_fields() {
visit base;
visit local_members;
visit variants;
}
visit_type_U() {
visit_start_struct();
visit_type_U_fields();
visit_end_struct();
}
