Fixes #19296, #12839 also includes test cases from #14930.

Also fixes FS3511 The resumable code value(s) 'code' does not have a definition. we have no issue open for it, but it was suppressed in this repo.

Brazenly vibecoded, however I think the risk of changes here is under control, given that we have quite a few relevant projects and their tests in the regression matrix.

OK here goes AI summary:

This pull request improves the F# compiler's handling of state machine lowering, especially for cases involving resumable code and control flow constructs like if __useResumableCode. It fixes issues where inlined helpers or nested resumable code constructs could incorrectly fall back to dynamic branches at runtime, and adds comprehensive test coverage for these scenarios. The main focus is on ensuring that statically-compilable state machines are correctly recognized and optimized, and that code generation remains robust for complex patterns.

Key changes include:

Compiler logic improvements:

  • Enhanced the lowering pass in LowerStateMachines.fs to correctly handle resumable code bindings found inside debug points, ensuring that nested resumable code constructs are properly expanded.
  • Updated the reduction logic to track locally-bound resumable code continuations in the environment, allowing correct resolution and inlining of these continuations during optimization. [1] [2]
  • Modified the rewrite environment to avoid recursing into nested state machine expressions, preventing unintended modification of their internal logic and ensuring that only the appropriate static branches are taken for if __useResumableCode.

Test suite enhancements:

  • Added a new test module (FailingInlinedHelper) and test case to verify that inlined helpers containing if __useResumableCode are expanded correctly, addressing a real-world bug. [1] [2]
  • Expanded tests to cover additional scenarios involving for-loops over tuples and various statically-compilable task patterns, ensuring robust handling of these constructs.

Improve reduction of resumable code in state machines

Enhance application reduction in state machine lowering for F# computation expressions by tracking let-bound resumable code in the environment and resolving references during reduction. This enables correct handling of optimizer-generated continuations and deeper reduction of nested applications. Also, update test comments to reflect resolved state machine compilation issues.

Looks like this now to some point reinvents #14930. I'll try to include some of the relevant repros in tests. Too bad they are scattered across issues and comments.

Another observation: Lack of FS3511 warning does not mean the state machine actually compiled statically. Sometimes the fallback to dynamic implementation gives no warning.

I tried to include in tests as many old repros as I could find across the issues.
My methodology was: paste the repro in sharplab.io, if it does not statically compile, include it in StateMachineTests.fs

Turns out a lot of those repros already compile statically. If not in sharplab (no idea what version it uses) than with current compiler from main.

3 cases remained that are fixed specifically by this PR:

Is it right to close #12839 with this ? It looks like an umbrella issue for all sorts of problems.
I am definitely happy if all of them are resolved 👍 , well done.

I am also thinking if there is a way we could add an end2end test here, e.g. using the library regression testing pipeline?
We do have iced tasks in already, is there something we could run as verification or a special flag/prop/check/IL detection perhaps, to spot regressions ?
(regression = code still compiles, but will fallback to dynamic implementation)

As far as I can tell all of them are resolved now, few have been resolved for some time.

I am also thinking if there is a way we could add an end2end test here, e.g. using the library regression testing pipeline? We do have iced tasks in already, is there something we could run as verification or a special flag/prop/check/IL detection perhaps, to spot regressions ? (regression = code still compiles, but will fallback to dynamic implementation)

I have nothing apart from the few tests I added :)

One thing that comes to mind is to disable some of the #nowarn 3511 we have in this repo, or at least make them scoped to the exact place, like using let rec in tasks. But that depends on the warning being reliable.

Removing the nowarns here is good dogfooding 👍 .

IcedTasks have 3 of them in tests https://github.com/search?q=repo%3ATheAngryByrd%2FIcedTasks%203511&type=code that appear to be intentionally dynamic (for testing), otherwise I do not see it - all good ( I will just check the regression pipeline outputs if there are any warnings from it)

image It seems one of the test cases in Compiler.Service deadlocked. This is probably caused by xUnit v3 synchronization context but I'll switch this PR to draft until this is investigated and resolved, just in case.

* Fix Get-PrBuildIds.ps1 reporting SUCCESS while builds in progress (#19313)

* Fix flaky Project25 TP test by replacing FSharp.Data NuGet with TestTP (#19364) (#19373)

Replace FSharp.Data (resolved via NuGet at runtime) with the built-in
TestTP type provider for the Project25 symbol API tests. This fixes
non-deterministic test failures on Linux CI caused by
Directory.GetFiles returning DLLs in random inode order on ext4,
which varied whether the FSharp.Data namespace was tagged as
'provided' or not.

Changes:
- Replace 70-line NuGet restore/staging setup with 2-line TestTP reference
- Update source to use ErasedWithConstructor.Provided.MyType instead
  of FSharp.Data.XmlProvider
- Replace brittle exact-match symbol list with targeted assertions
  for provided types, methods, and namespaces
- Remove FactSkipOnSignedBuild (TestTP is always available after build)
- Rename test variables to match the types being tested

* Fix flaky help_options test by saving/restoring enableConsoleColoring global

The `fsc --consolecolors switch` test mutates the global
`enableConsoleColoring` via `--consolecolors-`. When help_options tests
run after this test, the help output says "(off by default)" instead of
"(on by default)", causing baseline mismatches.

Fix: save and restore `enableConsoleColoring` around the test.

* isolate checker (#19393)

Isolate type-provider tests with dedicated FSharpChecker

Introduce Project25.checker to avoid shared state races in type-provider tests. All relevant test cases now use this dedicated instance, improving test isolation, reliability, and determinism without changing test functionality.

* Introduce CallRelatedSymbolSink to avoid affect name resolution with related symbols (#19361)

* Add RelatedSymbolUseKind flags enum and separate sink for related symbols

Address auduchinok's review comments on PR #19252: related symbols (union case
testers, copy-and-update record types) are now reported via a separate
NotifyRelatedSymbolUse sink instead of abusing NotifyNameResolution.

- Add [<Flags>] RelatedSymbolUseKind enum (None/UnionCaseTester/CopyAndUpdateRecord/All)
- Add NotifyRelatedSymbolUse to ITypecheckResultsSink interface
- Refactor RegisterUnionCaseTesterForProperty to use the new sink
- Refactor copy-and-update in TcRecdExpr to use CallRelatedSymbolSink
- Add ?relatedSymbolKinds parameter to GetUsesOfSymbolInFile (default: None)
- Wire up VS FAR to pass relatedSymbolKinds=All
- Write related symbols to ItemKeyStore for background FAR
- Update semantic classification tests: tester properties now classified as
  Property (not UnionCase) since they're no longer in capturedNameResolutions

* Add release notes for FSharp.Compiler.Service 11.0.100
