* Implement overlapping type family instances.Richard Eisenberg2012-12-212-56/+112
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An ordered, overlapping type family instance is introduced by 'type instance where', followed by equations. See the new section in the user manual (7.7.2.2) for details. The canonical example is Boolean equality at the type level: type family Equals (a :: k) (b :: k) :: Bool type instance where Equals a a = True Equals a b = False A branched family instance, such as this one, checks its equations in order and applies only the first the matches. As explained in the note [Instance checking within groups] in FamInstEnv.lhs, we must be careful not to simplify, say, (Equals Int b) to False, because b might later unify with Int. This commit includes all of the commits on the overlapping-tyfams branch. SPJ requested that I combine all my commits over the past several months into one monolithic commit. The following GHC repos are affected: ghc, testsuite, utils/haddock, libraries/template-haskell, and libraries/dph. Here are some details for the interested: - The definition of CoAxiom has been moved from TyCon.lhs to a new file CoAxiom.lhs. I made this decision because of the number of definitions necessary to support BranchList. - BranchList is a GADT whose type tracks whether it is a singleton list or not-necessarily-a-singleton-list. The reason I introduced this type is to increase static checking of places where GHC code assumes that a FamInst or CoAxiom is indeed a singleton. This assumption takes place roughly 10 times throughout the code. I was worried that a future change to GHC would invalidate the assumption, and GHC might subtly fail to do the right thing. By explicitly labeling CoAxioms and FamInsts as being Unbranched (singleton) or Branched (not-necessarily-singleton), we make this assumption explicit and checkable. Furthermore, to enforce the accuracy of this label, the list of branches of a CoAxiom or FamInst is stored using a BranchList, whose constructors constrain its type index appropriately. I think that the decision to use BranchList is probably the most controversial decision I made from a code design point of view. Although I provide conversions to/from ordinary lists, it is more efficient to use the brList... functions provided in CoAxiom than always to convert. The use of these functions does not wander far from the core CoAxiom/FamInst logic. BranchLists are motivated and explained in the note [Branched axioms] in CoAxiom.lhs. - The CoAxiom type has changed significantly. You can see the new type in CoAxiom.lhs. It uses a CoAxBranch type to track branches of the CoAxiom. Correspondingly various functions producing and consuming CoAxioms had to change, including the binary layout of interface files. - To get branched axioms to work correctly, it is important to have a notion of type "apartness": two types are apart if they cannot unify, and no substitution of variables can ever get them to unify, even after type family simplification. (This is different than the normal failure to unify because of the type family bit.) This notion in encoded in tcApartTys, in Unify.lhs. Because apartness is finer-grained than unification, the tcUnifyTys now calls tcApartTys. - CoreLinting axioms has been updated, both to reflect the new form of CoAxiom and to enforce the apartness rules of branch application. The formalization of the new rules is in docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf. - The FamInst type (in types/FamInstEnv.lhs) has changed significantly, paralleling the changes to CoAxiom. Of course, this forced minor changes in many files. - There are several new Notes in FamInstEnv.lhs, including one discussing confluent overlap and why we're not doing it. - lookupFamInstEnv, lookupFamInstEnvConflicts, and lookup_fam_inst_env' (the function that actually does the work) have all been more-or-less completely rewritten. There is a Note [lookup_fam_inst_env' implementation] describing the implementation. One of the changes that affects other files is to change the type of matches from a pair of (FamInst, [Type]) to a new datatype (which now includes the index of the matching branch). This seemed a better design. - The TySynInstD constructor in Template Haskell was updated to use the new datatype TySynEqn. I also bumped the TH version number, requiring changes to DPH cabal files. (That's why the DPH repo has an overlapping-tyfams branch.) - As SPJ requested, I refactored some of the code in HsDecls: * splitting up TyDecl into SynDecl and DataDecl, correspondingly changing HsTyDefn to HsDataDefn (with only one constructor) * splitting FamInstD into TyFamInstD and DataFamInstD and splitting FamInstDecl into DataFamInstDecl and TyFamInstDecl * making the ClsInstD take a ClsInstDecl, for parallelism with InstDecl's other constructors * changing constructor TyFamily into FamDecl * creating a FamilyDecl type that stores the details for a family declaration; this is useful because FamilyDecls can appear in classes but other decls cannot * restricting the associated types and associated type defaults for a * class to be the new, more restrictive types * splitting cid_fam_insts into cid_tyfam_insts and cid_datafam_insts, according to the new types * perhaps one or two more that I'm overlooking None of these changes has far-reaching implications. - The user manual, section 7.7.2.2, is updated to describe the new type family instances.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The situation was pretty dire. The way in which data constructors were handled, notably the mapping between their *source* argument types and their *representation* argument types (after seq'ing and unpacking) was scattered in three different places, and hard to keep in sync. Now it is all in one place: * The dcRep field of a DataCon gives its representation, specified by a DataConRep * As well as having the wrapper, the DataConRep has a "boxer" of type DataConBoxer (defined in MkId for loopy reasons). The boxer used at a pattern match to reconstruct the source-level arguments from the rep-level bindings in the pattern match. * The unboxing in the wrapper and the boxing in the boxer are dual, and are now constructed together, by MkId.mkDataConRep. This is the key function of this change. * All the computeBoxingStrategy code in TcTyClsDcls disappears. Much nicer. There is a little bit of refactoring left to do; the strange deepSplitProductType functions are now called only in WwLib, so I moved them there, and I think they could be tidied up further.

* Don't put uniqs in ghc wrapper function names; part of #4012Ian Lynagh2012-11-021-5/+15
| | | | | | The wrapper functions can end up in interface files, and thus are part of the ABI hash. But uniqs easily change for no good reason when recompiling, which can lead to an ABI hash needlessly changing.

| * Refactor the way dump flags are handledIan Lynagh2012-10-182-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were being inconsistent about how we tested whether dump flags were enabled; in particular, sometimes we also checked the verbosity, and sometimes we didn't. This lead to oddities such as "ghc -v4" printing an "Asm code" section which didn't contain any code, and "-v4" enabled some parts of "-ddump-deriv" but not others. Now all the tests use dopt, which also takes the verbosity into account as appropriate.

* This big patch re-factors the way in which arrow-syntax is handledSimon Peyton Jones2012-10-039-196/+169
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All the work was done by Dan Winograd-Cort. The main thing is that arrow comamnds now have their own data type HsCmd (defined in HsExpr). Previously it was punned with the HsExpr type, which was jolly confusing, and made it hard to do anything arrow-specific. To make this work, we now parameterise * MatchGroup * Match * GRHSs, GRHS * StmtLR and friends over the "body", that is the kind of thing they enclose. This "body" parameter can be instantiated to either LHsExpr or LHsCmd respectively. Everything else is really a knock-on effect; there should be no change (yet!) in behaviour. But it should be a sounder basis for fixing bugs.

| * | Add type "holes", enabled by -XTypeHoles, Trac #5910Simon Peyton Jones2012-09-172-0/+3

The basic idea is * Add a new expression form "_", a hole, standing for a not-yet-written expression * Give a useful error message that (a) gives the type of the hole (b) gives the types of some enclosing value bindings that mention the hole Driven by this goal I did a LOT of refactoring in TcErrors, which in turn allows us to report enclosing value bindings for other errors, not just holes. (Thijs rightly did not attempt this!) The major data type change is a new form of constraint data Ct = ... | CHoleCan { cc_ev :: CtEvidence, cc_hole_ty :: TcTauType, cc_depth :: SubGoalDepth } I'm still in two minds about whether this is the best plan. Another possibility would be to have a predicate type for holes, somthing like class Hole a where holeValue :: a It works the way it is, but there are some annoying special cases for CHoleCan (just grep for "CHoleCan").

* Annotate code in {-# LINE #-} pragmas as wellPeter Wortmann2012-08-211-31/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I suppose this was a good idea for HPC, as it assumed that source code annotations coming from a source file could only talk about the same source file (by how Mix files are saved). I don't see a reason why cost-centres or source annotations would want that kind of behaviour. I introduced a flag for toggling the behaviour per tickish. (plus some minor refactoring, as well as making sure that the same check applies to binary tick boxes, where they had apparently been forgotten.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FastStrings are now always UTF8-encoded. There's no StringTable for FastZString, but I don't think one is needed.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a first step on the way to refactoring the FastString type. FastBytes currently has no unique, mainly because there isn't currently a nice way to produce them in Binary. Also, we don't currently do the "Dictionary" thing with FastBytes in Binary. I'm not sure whether this is important. We can change both decisions later, but in the meantime this gets the refactoring underway.
