## What's Changed?

This week we have an update with an implementation for one of the RFCs
we had approved before, an improvement of the new type solver and a
small Lua 5.1 C API compatibility improvement.

* `@deprecated` attribute can now have a custom suggestion for a
replacement and a reason message as described in [deprecated attribute
parameters
RFC](https://rfcs.luau.org/syntax-attribute-functions-deprecated.html)

For example:
```luau
@[deprecated {reason = "foo suffers from performance issues", use = "bar"}]
local function foo()
    ...
end

-- Function 'foo' is deprecated, use 'bar' instead. foo suffers from performance issues
foo()
```

* `lua_cpcall` C API function has been restored both for compatibility
with Lua 5.1 and as a safe way to enter protected call environment to
work with Luau C API functions that may error

Instead of
```
if (!lua_checkstack(L, 2))
    return -1;
lua_pushcfunction(L, test, nullptr);
lua_pushlightuserdata(L, context);
int status = lua_pcall(L, 1, 0, 0);
```
you can simply do 
```
int status = lua_cpcall(L, test, context);
```

* In Luau CLI, required module return values can now have any type

## New Type Solver
- Additional improvements on type refinements used with external types
should fix some reported false positive errors where types refined to
`never`
- Fixed an issue in recursive refinement types in a form of `t1 where t1
= refine<t1, _>` getting 'stuck'
- Fixed an issue in subtyping of generic functions, it is now possible
to assign `<T>(T, (T) -> T) -> T` to `(number, <X>(X) -> X) -> number`
- Fixed an ICE caused by recursive types (Fixes luau-lang#1686)
- Added additional iteration and recursion limits to stop the type
solver before system resources are used up

## General
This week has been spent mostly on fixing bugs in incremental
autocomplete as well as making the new Type Solver more stable.

- Fixes a bug where registered "require" aliases were case-sensitive
instead of case-insensitive.
### New Type Solver
- Adjust literal sub typing logic to account for unreduced type
functions
- Implement a number of subtyping stack utilization improvements
- Emit a single error if an internal type escapes a module's interface
- Checked function errors in the New Non Strict warn about incorrect
argument use with one-indexed positions, e.g. `argument luau-lang#1 was used
incorrectly` instead of `argument #0 was used incorrectly`.
- Improvements to type function reduction that let us progress further
while reducing
- Augment the generalization system to not emit duplicate constraints.
- Fix a bug where we didn't seal tables in modules that failed to
complete typechecking.

### Fragment Autocomplete
- Provide richer autocomplete suggestions inside of for loops
- Provide richer autocomplete suggestions inside of interpolated string
expressions
- Improve the quality of error messages when typing out interpolated
strings.

### Compiler
- Fixes REX encoding of extended byte registers for the x86 assembly
code generation.
- Fixes for table shape constant data encoding

Another week, another release!

## Analysis
- Do not warn on unknown `require`s in non-strict mode.
- Improve `Luau::dump`'s output for `DenseHashMap`.
- Raise type checking errors when we would otherwise be leaking internal
error types from modules.
- Fix a crash that would sometimes occur when calling a function with an
incomplete type.
- Replace uses of `FFlag::LuauSolverV2` in `ClonePublicInterface` with a
`solverMode` field.
- Limit the number of constraints that can be dynamically created to
fail more gracefully in complex cases.
- Fix luau-lang#1932.

## General
- Support AstStatDeclareGlobal output as a source string (via
@karl-police in luau-lang#1889)
- Luau heap dump correctly reports the size of a string, now including
overhead for the string type
- Prevent yields from Luau `xpcall` error handling function.
 
## Analysis
- Avoid exponential blowup when normalizing union of normalized free
variables.
- Fix type pack-related bugs that caused infinite recursion when:
  - A generic type pack was bound to itself during subtyping.
- In type pack flattening, when that same generic type pack was now
being bound another generic type pack which contained it.
- Properly simplify `any & (*error-type* | string)` to `*error-type* |
*error-type* | string` instead of hanging due to creating a huge union
type.

Another week, another release!

## Analysis
- Hide errors in all solver modes (not just strict mode) if the only
error is that type inference failed to complete.
- Make various analysis components solver-agnostic (`setType`, `visit`,
`Scope` methods).
- Fix an issue where type inference may fail to complete when assigning
a table's member to the table itself.
- Fix a bug when accessing a table member on a local after the local is
assigned to in an if-else block, loop, or other similar language
construct.
  - Fixes luau-lang#1914.
- Fix type-checking of if-then-else expressions.
  - Fixes luau-lang#1815.

# What's changed?

Another somewhat quiet week! Don't let the large PR fool you, this is
mostly ...

## New Solver
* The code for type functions has been re-organized: instead of
_everything_ living in `TypeFunction.h` and `TypeFunction.cpp`, we now
have separate files for the type function inference machinery
(`TypeFunction.h`), definitions of built-in type functions
(`BuiltinTypeFunctions.h`), and the implementation of user defined type
functions (`UserDefinedTypeFunction.h`).
* Refinements against `*no-refine*`, a sentinel type indicating that no
refinements should occur, are now _always_ resolved, even if the target
of the refinement would be otherwise pending, such as another type
function.

## Autocomplete
* Fixed autocomplete to prefer table property completion to string
singleton completion. In the below example, the types associated with
each member of `foo` will be displayed in autocomplete popups.
```
local foo = {
    ["Item/Foo"] = 42,
    ["Item/Bar"] = "it's true",
    ["Item/Baz"] = true,
}
foo["|"] -- cursor at `|`
```

## Native Codegen
* Fixed native compilation lowering of the new global lookup
instruction, which caused code generation to fail with an error or to
evaluate incorrect results. Issue affected 678-681 releases when all
flags were enabled.

# What's Changed?
Short week, so a slightly shorter release! This one has been focused on
improving polish in fragment autocomplete and the new solver.

## New Type Solver
* Fix a bug where we didn't infer self types correctly under
bidirectional type inference.
* Improve the memory consumption of the new solver by reducing the
number of expensive allocations performed by `Substitution`.
* The New non strict Mode shouldn't issue errors when we call checked
functions with `never` values.
* Extend the number of cases in which the new non strict mode can report
unknown symbols.
* Fix a bug where `and` and `or` expressions didn't correctly forward
information computed by their operands. This should allow more programs
using these expressions to complete typechecking correctly.
* Small performance improvements for `Generalization`

## Fragment Autocomplete
* Fragment autocomplete provides richer autofill information when typing
`self.|`
* Fragment autocomplete now uses refinement information computed in the
new solver to provide more accurate incremental completion.

## Code Generation
* Fix a bug where Codegen could sometimes try to execute a
non-executable page

# What's Changed?

This week includes many changes to bring the behaviours of the Old and
New Luau Type Solver more in line.
* The old solver now stringifies tables identically to the new solver.
Sealed tables are stringified as `{ ... }` and unsealed tables are
represented by `{| ... |}`, regardless of your choice of solver.


## New Type Solver

* Miscellaneous fixes to make the Luau Frontend able to dynamically
toggle which solve is used.
* Small fixes to reduce instances of nondeterminism of the New Type
Solver.
* Issue an error when a function that has multiple non-viable overloads
is used.
* Subtyping now returns more information about the generics for type
inference to consume.
* Stop stuck type-functions from blocking type inference. This should
lead to fewer instances of 'type inference failed to complete'.

## Fragment Autocomplete
* Fixed a bug where incremental autocomplete wouldn't be able to provide
results directly on a required module script.
`require(script.Module).{request completions here}` will now recommend
the properties returned by the required object.

# What's Changed?

We've been hard at work fixing bugs and introducing new features!

## VM 
* Include constant-folding information in Luau cost model for inlining
and loop unrolling
   * ~1% improvement in compile times

## New Type Solver
* `Luau::shallowClone`'s last argument, whether to clone persistent
(builtin) types, is now non-optional.
* Refinements on properties of tables are now computed with a `read`
table property. This resolves some issues around refining table
properies and then trying to set them. Fixes luau-lang#1344. Fixes luau-lang#1651.
```
if foo.bar then
    -- Prior to this release, this would be `typeof(foo) & { bar: ~(false?) }
    -- Now, this is `typeof(foo) & { read bar: ~(false?) }
end
```
* The type function `keyof` should respect the empty string as a
property, as in:
```
-- equivalent to type Foo =""
type Foo = keyof<{ [""]: number }>
```
* Descend into literals to report subtyping errors for function calls:
this both improves bidirectional inference and makes errors more
specific. Before, the error reporting for a table with incorrect members
passed to a function would cite the entire table, but now it only cites
the members that are incorrectly typed.
* Fixes a case where intersecting two tables without any common
properties would create `never`, instead of a table with both of their
properties.
