As discussed with @gabriel-barrett, it definitely no longer makes sense to house the
memoset
module incoprocessors
.Although
memoset::query::Query
implements something conceptually like aCoprocessor
, it's not identical. We had thought maybe we could still use theCoprocessor
mechanism to implement the proving circuits, but that also seems to be a mismatch.So, to minimize confusion, as we gradually concretize the semantics and lexicon, we decided to re-house
memoset
entirely. The reason for the newcoroutine
module is that we think this is the lexical equivalent of coprocessor. It may be that aCoroutine
trait emerges, implemented byQuery
variants. TheCoprocessor
trait structure won't be directly applicable because of the demands of mutual recursion.More thought is needed, but the current PR only does the most conservative thing.
