Proving that context-freeness of $L(M)$ is not semi-decidable using Rice's theorem
First of all, it is not true that $M$ halts on every input iff $L(M)$ is decidable. Indeed, $L(M)$ can be decidable even if $M$ doesn't halt on every input. Consider for example the machine which never halts on any input&mdash;the empty language is certainly decidable.

Rice's theorem considers properties of partial functions. The partial function is the one computed by the Turing machine, with $\bot$ representing the case that the Turing machine doesn't halt on a specific input. If a machine $M$ always halts then the corresponding function is total&mdash;never attains the value $\bot$. This is a property of partial functions, and fits within the framework of Rice's theorem.

If you're not sure about this, have a look at the proof that the language of total Turing machines (ones that halt on all inputs) is not decidable.
