## Summary
We already have partial "support" for `assert_never`, because it is
annotated as
```pyi
def assert_never(arg: Never, /) -> Never: ...
```
in typeshed. So we already emit a `invalid-argument-type` diagnostic if
the argument type to `assert_never` is not assignable to `Never`.
That is not enough, however. Gradual types like `Any`, `Unknown`,
`@Todo(…)` or `Any & int` can be assignable to `Never`. Which means that
we didn't issue any diagnostic in those cases.
Also, it seems like `assert_never` deserves a dedicated diagnostic
message, not just a generic "invalid argument type" error.
## Test Plan
New Markdown tests.
## Summary
This implements a new approach to silencing `unresolved-reference`
diagnostics by keeping track of the reachability of each use of a
symbol. The changes merged in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/17169 are still needed for the
"Use of variable in nested function" test case, but that could also be
solved in another way eventually (see
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/15777). We can use the same
technique to silence `unresolved-import` and `unresolved-attribute`
false-positives, but I think this could be merged in isolation.
## Test Plan
New Markdown tests, ecosystem tests
## Summary
This PR adds support for stub packages, except for partial stub packages
(a stub package is always considered non-partial).
I read the specification at
[typing.python.org/en/latest/spec/distributing.html#stub-only-packages](https://typing.python.org/en/latest/spec/distributing.html#stub-only-packages)
but I found it lacking some details, especially on how to handle
namespace packages or when the regular and stub packages disagree on
whether they're namespace packages. I tried to document my decisions in
the mdtests where the specification isn't clear and compared the
behavior to Pyright.
Mypy seems to only support stub packages in the venv folder. At least,
it never picked up my stub packages otherwise. I decided not to spend
too much time fighting mypyp, which is why I focused the comparison
around Pyright
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/16612
## Test plan
Added mdtests
## Summary
Some more edge cases that I thought of while working on integrating
knowledge of statically known branches into the `*`-import machinery
## Test Plan
`cargo test -p red_knot_python_semantic`
## Summary
This PR does the following things:
- Fixes the `python` configuration setting for mdtest (added in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/17221) so that it expects a path
pointing to a venv's `sys.prefix` variable rather than the a path
pointing to the venv's `site-packages` subdirectory. This brings the
`python` setting in mdtest in sync with our CLI `--python` flag.
- Tweaks mdtest so that it automatically creates a valid `pyvenv.cfg`
file for you if you don't specify one. This makes it much more ergonomic
to write an mdtest with a custom `python` setting: red-knot will reject
a `python` setting that points to a directory that doesn't have a
`pyvenv.cfg` file in it
- Tweaks mdtest so that it doesn't check a custom `pyvenv.cfg` as Python
source code if you _do_ add a custom `pyvenv.cfg` file for your mock
virtual environment in an mdtest. (You get a lot of diagnostics about
Python syntax errors in the `pyvenv.cfg` file, otherwise!)
- Rewrites the test added in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/17178 as an mdtest, and deletes
the original test that was added in that PR
## Test Plan
I verified that the new mdtest fails if I revert the changes to
`resolver.rs` that were added in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/17178
For two non-disjoint types `P` and `Q`, the simplification of `(P | Q) &
~Q` is not `P`, but `P & ~Q`. In other words, the non-empty set `P & Q`
is also excluded from the type.
The same applies for a constrained typevar `[T: (P, Q)]`: `T & ~Q`
should simplify to `P & ~Q`, not just `P`.
Implementing this is actually purely a matter of removing code from the
constrained typevar simplification logic; we just need to not bother
removing the negations. If the negations are actually redundant (because
the constraint types are disjoint), normal intersection simplification
will already eliminate them (as shown in the added test.)
This adds a new `Type` variant for holding an instance of a typevar
inside of a generic function or class. We don't handle specializing the
typevars yet, but this should implement most of the typing rules for
inside the generic function/class, where we don't know yet which
specific type the typevar will be specialized to.
This PR does _not_ yet handle the constraint that multiple occurrences
of the typevar must be specialized to the _same_ time. (There is an
existing test case for this in `generics/functions.md` which is still
marked as TODO.)

## Summary
This PR changes the inferred type for symbols in unreachable sections of
code to `Never` (instead of reporting them as unbound), in order to
silence false positive diagnostics. See the lengthy comment in the code
for further details.
## Test Plan
- Updated Markdown tests.
- Manually verified a couple of ecosystem diagnostic changes.
Fixes#17164. Simply checking whether one type is gradually equivalent
to another is too simplistic here: `Any` is gradually equivalent to
`Todo`, but we should permit users to cast from `Todo` or `Unknown` to
`Any` without complaining about it. This changes our logic so that we
only complain about redundant casts if:
- the two types are exactly equal (when normalized) OR they are
equivalent (we'll still complain about `Any -> Any` casts, and about
`Any | str | int` -> `str | int | Any` casts, since their normalized
forms are exactly equal, even though the type is not fully static -- and
therefore does not participate in equivalence relations)
- AND the casted type does not contain `Todo`
## Summary
The existing signature for `str` calls had various problems, one of
which I noticed while looking at some ecosystem projects (`scrapy`,
added as a project to mypy_primer in this PR).
## Test Plan
- New tests for `str(…)` calls.
- Observed reduction of false positives in ecosystem checks
## Summary
A callable type is disjoint from other literal types. For example,
`Type::StringLiteral` must be an instance of exactly `str`, not a
subclass of `str`, and `str` is not callable. The same applies to other
literal types.
This should hopefully fix#17144, I couldn't produce any failures after
running property tests multiple times.
## Test Plan
Add test cases for disjointness check between callable and other literal
types.
Run property tests multiple times.
## Summary
Python `**` works differently to Rust `**`!
## Test Plan
Added an mdtest for various edge cases, and checked in the Python REPL
that we infer the correct type in all the new cases tested.
## Summary
Fixes https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/17058.
Equivalent callable types were not understood as equivalent when they
appeared nested inside unions and intersections. This PR fixes that by
ensuring that `Callable` elements nested inside unions, intersections
and tuples have their representations normalized before one union type
is compared with another for equivalence, or before one intersection
type is compared with another for equivalence.
The normalizations applied to a `Callable` type are:
- the type of the default value is stripped from all parameters (only
whether the parameter _has_ a default value is relevant to whether one
`Callable` type is equivalent to another)
- The names of the parameters are stripped from positional-only
parameters, variadic parameters and keyword-variadic parameters
- Unions and intersections that are present (top-level or nested) inside
parameter annotations or return annotations are normalized.
Adding a `CallableType::normalized()` method also allows us to simplify
the implementation of `CallableType::is_equivalent_to()`.
### Should these normalizations be done eagerly as part of a
`CallableType` constructor?
I considered this. It's something that we could still consider doing in
the future; this PR doesn't rule it out as a possibility. However, I
didn't pursue it for now, for several reasons:
1. Our current `Display` implementation doesn't handle well the
possibility that a parameter might not have a name or an annotated type.
Callable types with parameters like this would be displayed as follows:
```py
(, ,) -> None: ...
```
That's fixable! It could easily become something like `(Unknown,
Unknown) -> None: ...`. But it also illustrates that we probably want to
retain the parameter names when displaying the signature of a `lambda`
function if you're hovering over a reference to the lambda in an IDE.
Currently we don't have a `LambdaType` struct for representing `lambda`
functions; if we wanted to eagerly normalize signatures when creating
`CallableType`s, we'd probably have to add a `LambdaType` struct so that
we would retain the full signature of a `lambda` function, rather than
representing it as an eagerly simplified `CallableType`.
2. In order to ensure that it's impossible to create `CallableType`s
without the parameters being normalized, I'd either have to create an
alternative `SimplifiedSignature` struct (which would duplicate a lot of
code), or move `CallableType` to a new module so that the only way of
constructing a `CallableType` instance would be via a constructor method
that performs the normalizations eagerly on the callable's signature.
Again, this isn't a dealbreaker, and I think it's still an option, but
it would be a lot of churn, and it didn't seem necessary for now. Doing
it this way, at least to start with, felt like it would create a diff
that's easier to review and felt like it would create fewer merge
conflicts for others.
## Test Plan
- Added a regression mdtest for
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/17058
- Ran `QUICKCHECK_TESTS=1000000 cargo test --release -p
red_knot_python_semantic -- --ignored types::property_tests::stable`
## Summary
Add an initial set of tests that will eventually document our behavior
around unreachable code. In the last section of this suite, I argue why
we should never type check unreachable sections and never emit any
diagnostics in these sections.
## Summary
With this PR, we emit a diagnostic for this case where
previously didn't:
```py
from typing import Literal
def f(m: int, n: Literal[-1, 0, 1]):
# error: [division-by-zero] "Cannot divide object of type `int` by zero"
return m / n
```
## Test Plan
New Markdown test

## Summary
Add support for decorators on function as well as support
for properties by adding special handling for `@property` and `@<name of
property>.setter`/`.getter` decorators.
closes https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/16987
## Ecosystem results
- ✔️ A lot of false positives are fixed by our new
understanding of properties
- 🔴 A bunch of new false positives (typically
`possibly-unbound-attribute` or `invalid-argument-type`) occur because
we currently do not perform type narrowing on attributes. And with the
new understanding of properties, this becomes even more relevant. In
many cases, the narrowing occurs through an assertion, so this is also
something that we need to implement to get rid of these false positives.
- 🔴 A few new false positives occur because we do not
understand generics, and therefore some calls to custom setters fail.
- 🔴 Similarly, some false positives occur because we do not
understand protocols yet.
- ✔️ Seems like a true positive to me. [The
setter](e624d8edfa/src/packaging/specifiers.py (L752-L754))
only accepts `bools`, but `None` is assigned in [this
line](e624d8edfa/tests/test_specifiers.py (L688)).
```
+ error[lint:invalid-assignment]
/tmp/mypy_primer/projects/packaging/tests/test_specifiers.py:688:9:
Invalid assignment to data descriptor attribute `prereleases` on type
`SpecifierSet` with custom `__set__` method
```
- ✔️ This is arguable also a true positive. The setter
[here](0c6c75644f/rich/table.py (L359-L363))
returns `Table`, but typeshed wants [setters to return
`None`](bf8d2a9912/stdlib/builtins.pyi (L1298)).
```
+ error[lint:invalid-argument-type]
/tmp/mypy_primer/projects/rich/rich/table.py:359:5: Object of type
`Literal[padding]` cannot be assigned to parameter 2 (`fset`) of bound

```
## Follow ups
- Fix the `@no_type_check` regression
- Implement class decorators
## Test Plan
New Markdown test suites for decorators and properties.
## Summary
Part of #15382, this PR adds support for disjointness between two
callable types. They are never disjoint because there exists a callable
type that's a subtype of all other callable types:
```py
(*args: object, **kwargs: object) -> Never
```
The `Never` is a subtype of every fully static type thus a callable type
that has the return type of `Never` means that it is a subtype of every
return type.
## Test Plan
Add test cases related to mixed parameter kinds, gradual form (`...`)
and `Never` type.
## Summary
Currently our `Type::Callable` wraps a four-variant `CallableType` enum.
But as time has gone on, I think we've found that the four variants in
`CallableType` are really more different to each other than they are
similar to each other:
- `GeneralCallableType` is a structural type describing all callable
types with a certain signature, but the other three types are "literal
types", more similar to the `FunctionLiteral` variant
- `GeneralCallableType` is not a singleton or a single-valued type, but
the other three are all single-valued types
(`WrapperDescriptorDunderGet` is even a singleton type)
- `GeneralCallableType` has (or should have) ambiguous truthiness, but
all possible inhabitants of the other three types are always truthy.
- As a structural type, `GeneralCallableType` can contain inner unions
and intersections that must be sorted in some contexts in our internal
model, but this is not true for the other three variants.
This PR flattens `Type::Callable` into four distinct `Type::` variants.
In the process, it fixes a number of latent bugs that were concealed by
the current architecture but are laid bare by the refactor. Unit tests
for these bugs are included in the PR.
## Summary
This PR fixes a bug in callable subtyping to consider both the
positional and keyword form of the standard parameter in the supertype
when matching against variadic, keyword-only and keyword-variadic
parameter in the subtype.
This is done by collecting the unmatched standard parameters and then
checking them against the keyword-only / keyword-variadic parameters
after the positional loop.
## Test Plan
Add test cases.
## Summary
There are quite a few places we infer `Todo` types currently, and some
of them are nested somewhat deeply in type expressions. These can cause
spurious issues for the new `redundant-cast` diagnostics. We fixed all
the false positives we saw in the mypy_primer report before merging
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/17100, but I think there are
still lots of places where we'd emit false positives due to this check
-- we currently don't run on that many projects at all in our
mypy_primer check:
d0c8eaa092/.github/workflows/mypy_primer.yaml (L71)
This PR fixes some more false positives from this diagnostic by making
the `Type::contains_todo()` method more expansive.
## Test Plan
I added a regression test which causes us to emit a spurious diagnostic
on `main`, but does not with this PR.
## Summary
I noticed we were inferring `Todo` as the declared type for annotations
such as `x: tuple[list[int], list[int]]`. This PR reworks our annotation
parsing so that we instead infer `tuple[Todo, Todo]` for this
annotation, which is quite a bit more precise.
## Test Plan
Existing mdtest updated.
## Summary
Following up from earlier discussion on Discord, this PR adds logic to
flag casts as redundant when the inferred type of the expression is the
same as the target type. It should follow the semantics from
[mypy](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/1705).
Example:
```python
def f() -> int:
return 10
# error: [redundant-cast] "Value is already of type `int`"
cast(int, f())
```
## Summary
Part of #13694

can cover them in different PRs

## Summary
In preparation for #17017, where we will need them to suppress new false
positives (once we understand the `ParamSpec.args`/`ParamSpec.kwargs`
properties).
## Test Plan
Tested on branch #17017
## Summary
A quick fix for how union/intersection member search ins performed in
Knot.
## Test Plan
* Added a dunder method call test for Union, which exhibits the error
* Also added an intersection error, but it is not triggering currently
due to `call` logic not being fully implemented for intersections.

## Summary
Closes#16661
This PR includes two changes:
- `NotImplementedType` is now a member of `KnownClass`
- We skip `is_assignable_to` checks for `NotImplemented` when checking
return types
### Limitation
```py
def f(cond: bool) -> int:
return 1 if cond else NotImplemented
```
The implementation covers cases where `NotImplemented` appears inside a
`Union`.
However, for more complex types (ex. `Intersection`) it will not worked.
In my opinion, supporting such complexity is unnecessary at this point.
## Test Plan
Two `mdtest` files were updated:
- `mdtest/function/return_type.md`
- `mdtest/type_properties/is_singleton.md`
To test `KnownClass`, run:
```bash
cargo test -p red_knot_python_semantic -- types::class::
```
## Summary
From #16861, and the continuation of #16915.
This PR fixes the incorrect behavior of
`TypeInferenceBuilder::infer_name_load` in eager nested scopes.
And this PR closes#16341.
## Test Plan
New test cases are added in `annotations/deferred.md`.

## Summary
This PR adds some branches so that we infer `Todo` types for attribute
access on instances of `super()` and subtypes of `type[Enum]`. It reduces
false positives in the short term until we implement full support for
these features.
## Test Plan
New mdtests added + mypy_primer report

## Summary
Further work towards https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/14169.
We currently panic on encountering cyclic `*` imports. This is easily
fixed using fixpoint iteration.
## Test Plan
Added a test that panics on `main`, but passes with this PR
## Summary
As mentioned in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/16698#discussion_r2004920075,
part of #15382, this PR updates the `is_gradual_equivalent_to`
implementation between callable types to be similar to
`is_equivalent_to` and checks other attributes of parameters like name,
optionality, and parameter kind.
## Test Plan
Expand the existing test cases to consider other properties but not all
similar to how the tests are structured for subtyping and assignability.
## Summary
This PR adds initial support for `*` imports to red-knot. The approach
is to implement a standalone query, called from semantic indexing, that
visits the module referenced by the `*` import and collects all
global-scope public names that will be imported by the `*` import. The
`SemanticIndexBuilder` then adds separate definitions for each of these
names, all keyed to the same `ast::Alias` node that represents the `*`
import.
There are many pieces of `*`-import semantics that are still yet to be
done, even with this PR:
- This PR does not attempt to implement any of the semantics to do with
`__all__`. (If a module defines `__all__`, then only the symbols
included in `__all__` are imported, _not_ all public global-scope
symbols.
- With the logic implemented in this PR as it currently stands, we
sometimes incorrectly consider a symbol bound even though it is defined
in a branch that is statically known to be dead code, e.g. (assuming the
target Python version is set to 3.11):
```py
# a.py
import sys
if sys.version_info < (3, 10):
class Foo: ...
```
```py
# b.py
from a import *
print(Foo) # this is unbound at runtime on 3.11,
# but we currently consider it bound with the logic in this PR
```
Implementing these features is important, but is for now deferred to
followup PRs.
Many thanks to @ntBre, who contributed to this PR in a pairing session
on Friday!
## Test Plan
Assertions in existing mdtests are adjusted, and several new ones are
added.
## Summary
Here I fix the last English spelling errors I could find in the repo.
Again, I am trying not to touch variable/function names, or anything
that might be misspelled in the API. The goal is to make this PR safe
and easy to merge.
## Test Plan
I have run all the unit tests. Though, again, all of the changes I make
here are to docs and docstrings. I make no code changes, which I believe
should greatly mitigate the testing concerns.
## Summary
Resolves#16895.
`abstractmethod` is now a `KnownFunction`. When a function is decorated
by `abstractmethod` or when the parent class inherits directly from
`Protocol`, `invalid-return-type` won't be emitted for that function.
## Test Plan

## Summary
When callables are displayed in unions, like:
```py
from typing import Callable
def foo(x: Callable[[], int] | None):
# red-knot: Revealed type is `() -> int | None` [revealed-type]
reveal_type(x)
```
This leaves the type rather ambiguous, to fix this we can add
parenthesis to callable type in union

## Summary
This PR removes false-positive diagnostics for `*` imports. Currently we
always emit a diagnostic for these statements unless the module we're
importing from has a symbol named `"*"` in its symbol table for the
global scope. (And if we were doing everything correctly, no module ever
would have a symbol named `"*"` in its global scope!)
The fix here is sort-of hacky and won't be what we'll want to do
long-term. However, I think it's useful to do this as a first step
since:
- It significantly reduces false positives when running on code that
uses `*` imports
- It "resets" the tests to a cleaner state with many fewer TODOs, making
it easier to see what the hard work is that's still to be done.
## Test Plan
`cargo test -p red_knot_python_semantic`
## Summary
This PR adds a suite of tests for wildcard (`*`) imports. The tests
nearly all fail for now, and those that don't, ahem, pass for the wrong
reasons...
I've tried to add TODO comments in all instances for places where we are
currently inferring the incorrect thing, incorrectly emitting a
diagnostic, or emitting a diagnostic with a bad error message.
## Test Plan
`cargo test -p red_knot_python_semantic`
This breaks up call binding into two phases:
- **_Matching parameters_** just looks at the names and kinds
(positional/keyword) of each formal and actual parameters, and matches
them up. Most of the current call binding errors happen during this
phase.
- Once we have matched up formal and actual parameters, we can **_infer
types_** of each actual parameter, and **_check_** that each one is
assignable to the corresponding formal parameter type.
As part of this, we add information to each formal parameter about
whether it is a type form or not. Once [PEP
747](https://peps.python.org/pep-0747/) is finalized, we can hook that
up to this internal type form representation. This replaces the
`ParameterExpectations` type, which did the same thing in a more ad hoc
way.
While we're here, we add a new fluent API for building `Parameter`s,
which makes our signature constructors a bit nicer to read. We also
eliminate a TODO where we were consuming types from the argument list
instead of the bound parameter list when evaluating our special-case
known functions.
Closes#15460

## Summary
Part of #15382
This PR adds support for checking the subtype relationship between the
two callable types.
The main source of reference used for implementation is
https://typing.python.org/en/latest/spec/callables.html#assignability-rules-for-callables.
The implementation is split into two phases:
1. Check all the positional parameters which includes positional-only,
standard (positional or keyword) and variadic kind
2. Collect all the keywords in a `HashMap` to do the keyword parameters
check via name lookup
For (1), there's a helper struct which is similar to `.zip_longest`
(from `itertools`) except that it allows control over one of the
iterator as that's required when processing a variadic parameter. This
is required because positional parameters needs to be checked as per
their position between the two callable types. The struct also keeps
track of the current iteration element because when the loop is exited
(to move on to the phase 2) the current iteration element would be
carried over to the phase 2 check.
This struct is internal to the `is_subtype_of` method as I don't think
it makes sense to expose it outside. It also allows me to use "self" and
"other" suffixed field names as that's only relevant in that context.
## Test Plan
Add extensive tests in markdown.
Converted all of the code snippets from
https://typing.python.org/en/latest/spec/callables.html#assignability-rules-for-callables
to use `knot_extensions.is_subtype_of` and verified the result.
## Summary
This PR checks whether two callable types are equivalent or not.
This is required because for an equivalence relationship, the default
value does not necessarily need to be the same but if the parameter in
one of the callable has a default value then the corresponding parameter
in the other callable should also have a default value. This is the main
reason a manual implementation is required.
And, as per https://typing.python.org/en/latest/spec/callables.html#id4,
the default _type_ doesn't participate in a subtype relationship, only
the optionality (required or not) participates. This means that the
following two callable types are equivalent:
```py
def f1(a: int = 1) -> None: ...
def f2(a: int = 2) -> None: ...
```
Additionally, the name of positional-only, variadic and keyword-variadic
are not required to be the same for an equivalence relation.
A potential solution to avoid the manual implementation would be to only
store whether a parameter has a default value or not but the type is
currently required to check for assignability.

## Summary
Currently for something like `X = typing.Tuple[str, str]`, we infer the
value of `X` as `object`. That's because `Tuple` (like many of the
symbols in the typing module) is annotated as a `_SpecialForm` instance
in typeshed's stubs:
23382f5f8c/crates/red_knot_vendored/vendor/typeshed/stdlib/typing.pyi (L215)
and we don't understand implicit type aliases yet, and the stub for
`_SpecialForm.__getitem__` says it always returns `object`:
23382f5f8c/crates/red_knot_vendored/vendor/typeshed/stdlib/typing.pyi (L198-L200)
We have existing false positives in our test suite due to this:
23382f5f8c/crates/red_knot_python_semantic/resources/mdtest/annotations/annotated.md?plain=1#L76-L78
and it's causing _many_ new false positives in #16872, which tries to
make our annotation-expression parsing stricter in some ways.
This PR therefore adds some small special casing for `KnownInstanceType`
variants that fallback to `_SpecialForm`, so that these false positives
can be avoided.

From #16641
The previous PR attempted to fix the errors presented in this PR, but as
discussed in the conversation, it was concluded that the approach was
undesirable and that further work would be needed to fix the errors with
a correct general solution.
In this PR, I instead add the test cases from the previous PR as TODOs,
as a starting point for future work.

## Summary
This PR reworks `TypeInferenceBuilder::infer_type_expression()` so that
we emit diagnostics when encountering a list literal in a type
expression. The only place where a list literal is allowed in a type
expression is if it appears as the first argument to `Callable[]`, and
`Callable` is already heavily special-cased in our type-expression
parsing.
In order to ensure that list literals are _always_ allowed as the
_first_ argument to `Callabler` (but never allowed as the second, third,
etc. argument), I had to do some refactoring of our type-expression
parsing for `Callable` annotations.

## Test Plan
Extend annotations/invalid.md to handle these invalid AST nodes error
messages
These should all be minor cosmetic changes. To summarize:
* In many cases, `-` was replaced with `^` for primary annotations.
This is because, previously, whether `-` or `^` was used depended
on the severity. But in the new data model, it's based on whether
the annotation is "primary" or not. We could of course change this
in whatever way we want, but I think we should roll with this for now.
* The "secondary messages" in the old API are rendered as
sub-diagnostics. This in turn results in a small change in the output
format, since previously, the secondary messages were represented as
just another snippet. We use sub-diagnostics because that's the intended
way to enforce relative ordering between messages within a diagnostic.
* The "info:" prefix used in some annotation messages has been dropped.
We could re-add this, but I think I like it better without this prefix.
I believe those 3 cover all of the snapshot changes here.
This cleans up how we handle calling unions of types. #16568 adding a
three-level structure for callable signatures (`Signatures`,
`CallableSignature`, and `Signature`) to handle unions and overloads.
This PR updates the bindings side to mimic that structure. What used to
be called `CallOutcome` is now `Bindings`, and represents the result of
binding actual arguments against a possible union of callables.
`CallableBinding` is the result of binding a single, possibly
overloaded, callable type. `Binding` is the result of binding a single
overload.
While we're here, this also cleans up `CallError` greatly. It was
previously extracting error information from the bindings and storing it
in the error result. It is now a simple enum, carrying no data, that's
used as a status code to talk about whether the overall binding was
successful or not. We are now more consistent about walking the binding
itself to get detailed information about _how_ the binding was
unsucessful.

## Summary
Uses the `try_call_dunder` infrastructure for augmented assignment and
fixes the logic to work for types other than `Type::Instance(…)`. This
allows us to infer the correct type here:
```py
x = (1, 2)
x += (3, 4)
reveal_type(x) # revealed: tuple[Literal[1], Literal[2], Literal[3], Literal[4]]
```
Or in this (extremely weird) scenario:
```py
class Meta(type):
def __iadd__(cls, other: int) -> str:
return ""
class C(metaclass=Meta): ...
cls = C
cls += 1
reveal_type(cls) # revealed: str
```
Union and intersection handling could also be improved here, but I made
no attempt to do so in this PR.

## Summary
This PR implements the first part of
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/discussions/16440. It ensures that Red
Knot's module resolver is case sensitive on all systems.
This PR combines a few approaches:
1. It uses `canonicalize` on non-case-sensitive systems to get the real
casing of a path. This works for as long as no symlinks or mapped
network drives (the windows `E:\` is mapped to `\\server\share` thingy).
This is the same as what Pyright does
2. If 1. fails, fall back to recursively list the parent directory and
test if the path's file name matches the casing exactly as listed in by
list dir. This is the same approach as CPython takes in its module
resolver. The main downside is that it requires more syscalls because,
unlike CPython, we Red Knot needs to invalidate its caches if a file
name gets renamed (CPython assumes that the folders are immutable).
It's worth noting that the file watching test that I added that renames
`lib.py` to `Lib.py` currently doesn't pass on case-insensitive systems.
Making it pass requires some more involved changes to `Files`. I plan to
work on this next. There's the argument that landing this PR on its own
isn't worth it without this issue being addressed. I think it's still a
good step in the right direction even when some of the details on how
and where the path case sensitive comparison is implemented.
## Test plan
I added multiple integration tests (including a failing one). I tested
that the `case-sensitivity` detection works as expected on Windows,
MacOS and Linux and that the fast-paths are taken accordingly.
## Summary
This PR includes minor improvements to binary operation inference,
specifically for tuple concatenation.
### Before
```py
reveal_type((1, 2) + (3, 4)) # revealed: @Todo(return type of decorated function)
# If TODO is ignored, the revealed type would be `tuple[1|2|3|4, ...]`
```
The `builtins.tuple` type stub defines `__add__`, but it appears to only
work for homogeneous tuples. However, I think this limitation is not
ideal for many use cases.
### After
```py
reveal_type((1, 2) + (3, 4)) # revealed: tuple[Literal[1], Literal[2], Literal[3], Literal[4]]
```
## Test Plan
### Added
- `mdtest/binary/tuples.md`
### Affected
- `mdtest/slots.md` (a test have been moved out of the `False-Negative`
block.)
## Summary
This changeset adds proper support for assignments to attributes:
```py
obj.attr = value
```
In particular, the following new features are now available:
* We previously didn't raise any errors if you tried to assign to a
non-existing attribute `attr`. This is now fixed.
* If `type(obj).attr` is a data descriptor, we now call its `__set__`
method instead of trying to assign to the load-context type of
`obj.attr`, which can be different for data descriptors.
* An initial attempt was made to support unions and intersections, as
well as possibly-unbound situations. There are some remaining TODOs in
tests, but they only affect edge cases. Having nested diagnostics would
be one way that could help solve the remaining cases, I believe.
## Follow ups
The following things are planned as follow-ups:
- Write a test suite with snapshot diagnostics for various attribute
assignment errors
- Improve the diagnostics. An easy improvement would be to highlight the
right hand side of the assignment as a secondary span (with the rhs type
as additional information). Some other ideas are mentioned in TODO
comments in this PR.
- Improve the union/intersection/possible-unboundness handling
- Add support for calling custom `__setattr__` methods (see new false
positive in the ecosystem results)
## Ecosystem changes
Some changes are related to assignments on attributes with a custom
`__setattr__` method (see above). Since we didn't notice missing
attributes at all in store context previously, these are new.
The other changes are related to properties. We previously used their
read-context type to test the assignment. That results in weird error
messages, as we often see assignments to `self.property` and then we
think that those are instance attributes *and* descriptors, leading to
union types. Now we properly look them up on the meta type, see the
decorated function, and try to overwrite it with the new value (as we
don't understand decorators yet). Long story short: the errors are still
weird, we need to understand decorators to make them go away.
## Test Plan
New Markdown tests
There can be semi-cyclic inheritance patterns (e.g. recursive generics)
that are not technically inheritance cycles, but that can cause us to
hit Salsa query cycles in evaluating a type's MRO. Add fixed-point
handling to these MRO-related queries so we don't panic on these cycles.
The details of what queries we hit in what order in this case will
change as we implement support for generics, but ultimately we will
probably need cycle handling for all queries that can re-enter type
inference, otherwise we are susceptible to small changes in query
execution order causing panics.
Fixes#14333
Further reduces the panicking set of seeds in #14737
## Summary
This PR adds a new `CallableTypeFromFunction` special form to allow
extracting the abstract signature of a function literal i.e., convert a
`Type::Function` into a `Type::Callable` (`CallableType::General`).
This is done to support testing the `is_gradual_equivalent_to` type
relation specifically the case we want to make sure that a function that
has parameters with no annotations and does not have a return type
annotation is gradual equivalent to `Callable[[Any, Any, ...], Any]`
where the number of parameters should match between the function literal
and callable type.
Refer
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/16634#discussion_r1989976692
### Bikeshedding
The name `CallableTypeFromFunction` is a bit too verbose. A possibly
alternative from Carl is `CallableTypeOf` but that would be similar to
`TypeOf` albeit with a limitation that the former only accepts function
literal types and errors on other types.
Some other alternatives:
* `FunctionSignature`
* `SignatureOf` (similar issues as `TypeOf`?)
* ...
## Test Plan
Update `type_api.md` with a new section that tests this special form,
both invalid and valid forms.
## Summary
Add support for calling custom `__getattr__` methods in case an
attribute is not otherwise found. This allows us to get rid of many
ecosystem false positives where we previously emitted errors when
accessing attributes on `argparse.Namespace`.
closes#16614
## Test Plan
* New Markdown tests
* Observed expected ecosystem changes (the changes for `arrow` also look
fine, since the `Arrow` class has a custom [`__getattr__`
here](1d70d00919/arrow/arrow.py (L802-L815)))
Pulls in the latest Salsa main branch, which supports fixpoint
iteration, and uses it to handle all query cycles.
With this, we no longer need to skip any corpus files to avoid panics.
Latest perf results show a 6% incremental and 1% cold-check regression.
This is not a "no cycles" regression, as tomllib and typeshed do trigger
some definition cycles (previously handled by our old
`infer_definition_types` fallback to `Unknown`). We don't currently have
a benchmark we can use to measure the pure no-cycles regression, though
I expect there would still be some regression; the fixpoint iteration
feature in Salsa does add some overhead even for non-cyclic queries.
I think this regression is within the reasonable range for this feature.
We can do further optimization work later, but I don't think it's the
top priority right now. So going ahead and acknowledging the regression
on CodSpeed.
Mypy primer is happy, so this doesn't regress anything on our
currently-checked projects. I expect it probably unlocks adding a number
of new projects to our ecosystem check that previously would have
panicked.

## Summary
Implements attribute access on intersection types, which didn't
previously work. For example:
```py
from typing import Any
class P: ...
class Q: ...
class A:
x: P = P()
class B:
x: Any = Q()
def _(obj: A):
if isinstance(obj, B):
reveal_type(obj.x) # revealed: P & Any
```

## Summary
Background - as a follow up to #16611 I noticed that there's a lot of
code duplicated between the `is_assignable_to` and `is_subtype_of`
functions and considered trying to merge them.
[A subtype and an assignable type are pretty much the
same](https://typing.python.org/en/latest/spec/concepts.html#the-assignable-to-or-consistent-subtyping-relation),
except that subtypes are by definition fully static, so I think we can
replace the whole of `is_subtype_of` with:
```
if !self.is_fully_static(db) || !target.is_fully_static(db) {
return false;
}
return self.is_assignable_to(target)
```
if we move all of the logic to is_assignable_to and delete duplicate
code. Then we can discuss if it even makes sense to have a separate
is_subtype_of function (I think the answer is yes since it's used by a
bunch of other places, but we may be able to basically rip out the
concept).
Anyways while playing with combining the functions I noticed is that the
handling of Intersections in `is_subtype_of` has a special case for two
intersections, which I didn't include in the last PR - rather I first
handled right hand intersections before left hand, which should properly
handle double intersections (hand-wavy explanation I can justify if
needed - (A & B & C) is assignable to (A & B) because the left is
assignable to both A and B, but none of A, B, or C is assignable to (A &
B)).
I took a look at what breaks if I remove the handling for double
intersections, and the reason it is needed is because is_disjoint does
not properly handle intersections with negative conditions (so instead
`is_subtype_of` basically implements the check correctly).
This PR adds support to is_disjoint for properly checking negative
branches, which also lets us simplify `is_subtype_of`, bringing it in
line with `is_assignable_to`

## Summary
This is a pure restructuring of the `attributes.md` and
`descriptor_protocol.md` test suites. They have grown organically and I
didn't want to make major structural changes in my recent PR to keep the
diff clean.
## Summary
Properly handle binary operator inference for union types.
This fixes a bug I noticed while looking at ecosystem results. The MRE
version of it is this:
```py
def sub(x: float, y: float):
# Red Knot: Operator `-` is unsupported between objects of type `int | float` and `int | float`
return x - y

## Summary
Part of #15382
This PR adds the check for whether a callable type is fully static or
not.
A callable type is fully static if all of the parameter types are fully
static _and_ the return type is fully static _and_ if it does not use
the gradual form (`...`) for its parameters.
## Test Plan
Update `is_fully_static.md` with callable types.
It seems that currently this test is grouped into either fully static or
not, I think it would be useful to split them up in groups like
callable, etc. I intentionally avoided that in this PR but I'll put up a
PR for an appropriate split.
Note: I've an explicit goal of updating the property tests with the new
callable types once all relations are implemented.
## Summary
This PR closes#16248.
If the return type of the function isn't assignable to the one
specified, an `invalid-return-type` error occurs.
I thought it would be better to report this as a different kind of error
than the `invalid-assignment` error, so I defined this as a new error.
## Test Plan
All type inconsistencies in the test cases have been replaced with
appropriate ones.

This updates the `Signature` and `CallBinding` machinery to support
multiple overloads for a callable. This is currently only used for
`KnownFunction`s that we special-case in our type inference code. It
does **_not_** yet update the semantic index builder to handle
`@overload` decorators and construct a multi-signature `Overloads`
instance for real Python functions.
While I was here, I updated many of the `try_call` special cases to use
signatures (possibly overloaded ones now) and `bind_call` to check
parameter lists. We still need some of the mutator methods on
`OverloadBinding` for the special cases where we need to update return
types based on some Rust code.
## Summary
This mostly fixes#14899
My motivation was similar to the last comment by @sharkdp there. I ran
red_knot on a codebase and the most common error was patterns like this
failing:
```
def foo(x: str): ...
x: Any = ...
if isinstance(x, str):
foo(x) # Object of type `Any & str` cannot be assigned to parameter 1 (`x`) of function `foo`; expected type `str`
```
The desired behavior is pretty much to ignore Any/Unknown when resolving
intersection assignability - `Any & str` should be assignable to `str`,
and `str` should be assignable to `str & Any`
The fix is actually very similar to the existing code in
`is_subtype_of`, we need to correctly handle intersections on either
side, while being careful to handle dynamic types as desired.
This does not fix the second test case from that issue:
```
static_assert(is_assignable_to(Intersection[Unrelated, Any], Not[tuple[Unrelated, Any]]))
```
but that's misleading because the root cause there has nothing to do
with gradual types. I added a simpler test case that also fails:
```
static_assert(is_assignable_to(Unrelated, Not[tuple[Unrelated]]))
```
This is because we don't determine that Unrelated does not subclass from
tuple so we can't rule out this relation. If that logic is improved then
this fix should also handle the case of the intersection
## Test Plan
Added a bunch of is_assignable_to tests, most of which failed before
this fix.
## Summary
Part of https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/15382
This PR adds support for inferring the `lambda` expression and return
the `CallableType`.
Currently, this is only limited to inferring the parameters and a todo
type for the return type.
For posterity, I tried using the `file_expression_type` to infer the
return type of lambda but it would always lead to cycle. The main reason
is that in `infer_parameter_definition`, the default expression is being
inferred using `file_expression_type`, which is correct, but it then
Take the following source code as an example:
```py
lambda x=1: x
```
Here's how the code will flow:
* `infer_scope_types` for the global scope
* `infer_lambda_expression`
* `infer_expression` for the default value `1`
* `file_expression_type` for the return type using the body expression.
This is because the body creates it's own scope
* `infer_scope_types` (lambda body scope)
* `infer_name_load` for the symbol `x` whose visible binding is the
lambda parameter `x`
* `infer_parameter_definition` for parameter `x`
* `file_expression_type` for the default value `1`
* `infer_scope_types` for the global scope because of the default
expression
This will then reach to `infer_definition` for the parameter `x` again
which then creates the cycle.
## Test Plan
Add tests around `lambda` expression inference.
## Summary
Fixes a small nit of mine -- we are currently inconsistent in our
spelling between "metaclass" and "meta class", and between "meta type"
and "meta-type". This PR means that we consistently use "metaclass" and
"meta-type".

## Summary
Part of https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/15382
This PR implements a general callable type that wraps around a
`Signature` and it uses that new type to represent `typing.Callable`.
It also implements `Display` support for `Callable`. The format is as:
```
([<arg name>][: <arg type>][ = <default type>], ...) -> <return type>
```
The `/` and `*` separators are added at the correct boundary for
positional-only and keyword-only parameters. Now, as `typing.Callable`
only has positional-only parameters, the rendered signature would be:
```py
Callable[[int, str], None]
# (int, str, /) -> None
```
The `/` separator represents that all the arguments are positional-only.
The relationship methods that check assignability, subtype relationship,
etc. are not yet implemented and will be done so as a follow-up.
## Test Plan
Add test cases for display support for `Signature` and various mdtest
for `typing.Callable`.
## Summary
Resolves#16365
Add support for unpacking `with` statement targets.

## Summary
* Attributes/method are now properly looked up on metaclasses, when
called on class objects
* We properly distinguish between data descriptors and non-data
descriptors (but we do not yet support them in store-context, i.e.
`obj.data_descr = …`)
* The descriptor protocol is now implemented in a single unified place
for instances, classes and dunder-calls. Unions and possibly-unbound
symbols are supported in all possible stages of the process by creating
union types as results.
* In general, the handling of "possibly-unbound" symbols has been
improved in a lot of places: meta-class attributes, attributes,
descriptors with possibly-unbound `__get__` methods, instance
attributes, …
* We keep track of type qualifiers in a lot more places. I anticipate
that this will be useful if we import e.g. `Final` symbols from other
modules (see relevant change to typing spec:
https://github.com/python/typing/pull/1937).
* Detection and special-casing of the `typing.Protocol` special form in
order to avoid lots of changes in the test suite due to new `@Todo`
types when looking up attributes on builtin types which have `Protocol`
in their MRO. We previously
looked up attributes in a wrong way, which is why this didn't come up
before.
closes#16367closes#15966
## Context
The way attribute lookup in `Type::member` worked before was simply
wrong (mostly my own fault). The whole instance-attribute lookup should
probably never have been integrated into `Type::member`. And the
`Type::static_member` function that I introduced in my last descriptor
PR was the wrong abstraction. It's kind of fascinating how far this
approach took us, but I am pretty confident that the new approach
proposed here is what we need to model this correctly.
There are three key pieces that are required to implement attribute
lookups:
- **`Type::class_member`**/**`Type::find_in_mro`**: The
`Type::find_in_mro` method that can look up attributes on class bodies
(and corresponding bases). This is a partial function on types, as it
can not be called on instance types like`Type::Instance(…)` or
`Type::IntLiteral(…)`. For this reason, we usually call it through
`Type::class_member`, which is essentially just
`type.to_meta_type().find_in_mro(…)` plus union/intersection handling.
- **`Type::instance_member`**: This new function is basically the
type-level equivalent to `obj.__dict__[name]` when called on
`Type::Instance(…)`. We use this to discover instance attributes such as
those that we see as declarations on class bodies or as (annotated)
assignments to `self.attr` in methods of a class.
- The implementation of the descriptor protocol. It works slightly
different for instances and for class objects, but it can be described
by the general framework:
- Call `type.class_member("attribute")` to look up "attribute" in the
MRO of the meta type of `type`. Call the resulting `Symbol` `meta_attr`
(even if it's unbound).
- Use `meta_attr.class_member("__get__")` to look up `__get__` on the
*meta type* of `meta_attr`. Call it with `__get__(meta_attr, self,
self.to_meta_type())`. If this fails (either the lookup or the call),
just proceed with `meta_attr`. Otherwise, replace `meta_attr` in the
following with the return type of `__get__`. In this step, we also probe
if a `__set__` or `__delete__` method exists and store it in
`meta_attr_kind` (can be either "data descriptor" or "normal attribute
or non-data descriptor").
- Compute a `fallback` type.
- For instances, we use `self.instance_member("attribute")`
- For class objects, we use `class_attr =
self.find_in_mro("attribute")`, and then try to invoke the descriptor
protocol on `class_attr`, i.e. we look up `__get__` on the meta type of
`class_attr` and call it with `__get__(class_attr, None, self)`. This
additional invocation of the descriptor protocol on the fallback type is
one major asymmetry in the otherwise universal descriptor protocol
implementation.
- Finally, we look at `meta_attr`, `meta_attr_kind` and `fallback`, and
handle various cases of (possible) unboundness of these symbols.
- If `meta_attr` is bound and a data descriptor, just return `meta_attr`
- If `meta_attr` is not a data descriptor, and `fallback` is bound, just
return `fallback`
- If `meta_attr` is not a data descriptor, and `fallback` is unbound,
return `meta_attr`
- Return unions of these three possibilities for partially-bound
symbols.
This allows us to handle class objects and instances within the same
framework. There is a minor additional detail where for instances, we do
not allow the fallback type (the instance attribute) to completely
shadow the non-data descriptor. We do this because we (currently) don't
want to pretend that we can statically infer that an instance attribute
is always set.
Dunder method calls can also be embedded into this framework. The only
thing that changes is that *there is no fallback type*. If a dunder
method is called on an instance, we do not fall back to instance
variables. If a dunder method is called on a class object, we only look
it up on the meta class, never on the class itself.
