* Refactor iface file generation:Ömer Sinan Ağacan2019-09-301-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit refactors interface file generation to allow information from the later passed (NCG, STG) to be stored in interface files. We achieve this by splitting interface file generation into two parts: * Partial interfaces, built based on the result of the core pipeline * A fully instantiated interface, which also contains the final fingerprints and can optionally contain information produced by the backend. This change is required by !1304 and !1530. -dynamic-too handling is refactored too: previously when generating code we'd branch on -dynamic-too *before* code generation, but now we do it after. (Original code written by @AndreasK in !1530) Performance ~~~~~~~~~~~ Before this patch interface files where created and immediately flushed to disk which made space leaks impossible. With this change we instead use NFData to force all iface related data structures to avoid space leaks. In the process of refactoring it was discovered that the code in the ToIface Module allocated a lot of thunks which were immediately forced when writing/forcing the interface file. So we made this module more strict to avoid creating many of those thunks. Bottom line is that allocations go down by about ~0.1% compared to master. Residency is not meaningfully different after this patch. Runtime was not benchmarked.

* Break up TyCoRepBen Gamari2019-07-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This breaks up the monstrous TyCoReps module into several new modules by topic: * TyCoRep: Contains the `Coercion`, `Type`, and related type definitions and a few simple predicates but nothing further * TyCoPpr: Contains the the pretty-printer logic * TyCoFVs: Contains the free variable computations (and `tyConAppNeedsKindSig`, although I suspect this should change) * TyCoSubst: Contains the substitution logic for types and coercions * TyCoTidy: Contains the tidying logic for types While we are able to eliminate a good number of `SOURCE` imports (and make a few others smaller) with this change, we must introduce one new `hs-boot` file for `TyCoPpr` so that `TyCoRep` can define `Outputable` instances for the types it defines.

* Make equality constraints in kinds invisibleRyan Scott2019-05-031-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Issues #12102 and #15872 revealed something strange about the way GHC handles equality constraints in kinds: it treats them as _visible_ arguments! This causes a litany of strange effects, from strange error messages (https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/12102#note_169035) to bizarre `Eq#`-related things leaking through to GHCi output, even without any special flags enabled. This patch is an attempt to contain some of this strangeness. In particular: * In `TcHsType.etaExpandAlgTyCon`, we propagate through the `AnonArgFlag`s of any `Anon` binders. Previously, we were always hard-coding them to `VisArg`, which meant that invisible binders (like those whose kinds were equality constraint) would mistakenly get flagged as visible. * In `ToIface.toIfaceAppArgsX`, we previously assumed that the argument to a `FunTy` always corresponding to a `Required` argument. We now dispatch on the `FunTy`'s `AnonArgFlag` and map `VisArg` to `Required` and `InvisArg` to `Inferred`. As a consequence, the iface pretty-printer correctly recognizes that equality coercions are inferred arguments, and as a result, only displays them in `-fprint-explicit-kinds` is enabled. * Speaking of iface pretty-printing, `Anon InvisArg` binders were previously being pretty-printed like `T (a :: b ~ c)`, as if they were required. This seemed inconsistent with other invisible arguments (that are printed like `T @{d}`), so I decided to switch this to `T @{a :: b ~ c}`. Along the way, I also cleaned up a minor inaccuracy in the users' guide section for constraints in kinds that was spotted in https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/12102#note_136220. Fixes #12102 and #15872.

* Add AnonArgFlag to FunTySimon Peyton Jones2019-02-231-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The big payload of this patch is: Add an AnonArgFlag to the FunTy constructor of Type, so that (FunTy VisArg t1 t2) means (t1 -> t2) (FunTy InvisArg t1 t2) means (t1 => t2) The big payoff is that we have a simple, local test to make when decomposing a type, leading to many fewer calls to isPredTy. To me the code seems a lot tidier, and probably more efficient (isPredTy has to take the kind of the type). See Note [Function types] in TyCoRep. There are lots of consequences * I made FunTy into a record, so that it'll be easier when we add a linearity field, something that is coming down the road. * Lots of code gets touched in a routine way, simply because it pattern matches on FunTy. * I wanted to make a pattern synonym for (FunTy2 arg res), which picks out just the argument and result type from the record. But alas the pattern-match overlap checker has a heart attack, and either reports false positives, or takes too long. In the end I gave up on pattern synonyms. There's some commented-out code in TyCoRep that shows what I wanted to do. * Much more clarity about predicate types, constraint types and (in particular) equality constraints in kinds. See TyCoRep Note [Types for coercions, predicates, and evidence] and Note [Constraints in kinds]. This made me realise that we need an AnonArgFlag on AnonTCB in a TyConBinder, something that was really plain wrong before. See TyCon Note [AnonTCB InivsArg] * When building function types we must know whether we need VisArg (mkVisFunTy) or InvisArg (mkInvisFunTy). This turned out to be pretty easy in practice. * Pretty-printing of types, esp in IfaceType, gets tidier, because we were already recording the (->) vs (=>) distinction in an ad-hoc way. Death to IfaceFunTy. * mkLamType needs to keep track of whether it is building (t1 -> t2) or (t1 => t2). See Type Note [mkLamType: dictionary arguments] Other minor stuff * Some tidy-up in validity checking involving constraints; Trac #16263
* Overhaul -fprint-explicit-kinds to use VKARyan Scott2018-11-221-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the behavior of `-fprint-explicit-kinds` so that it displays kind argument using visible kind application. In other words, the flag now: 1. Prints instantiations of specified variables with `@(...)`. 2. Prints instantiations of inferred variables with `@{...}`. In addition, this patch removes the `Use -fprint-explicit-kinds to see the kind arguments` error message that often arises when a type mismatch occurs due to different kinds. Instead, whenever there is a kind mismatch, we now enable the `-fprint-explicit-kinds` flag locally to help cue to the programmer where the error lies. (See `Note [Kind arguments in error messages]` in `TcErrors`.) As a result, these funny `@{...}` things can now appear to the user even without turning on the `-fprint-explicit-kinds` flag explicitly, so I took the liberty of documenting them in the users' guide.

* Smarter HsType pretty-print for promoted dataconsSimon Peyton Jones2018-11-151-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix Trac #15898, by being smarter about when to print a space before a promoted data constructor, in a HsType. I had to implement a mildly tiresome function HsType.lhsTypeHasLeadingPromotionQuote It has multiple cases, of course, but it's very simple. The patch improves the error-message output in a bunch of cases, and (to my surprise) actually fixes a bug in the output of T14343 (Trac #14343), thus - In the expression: _ :: Proxy '('( 'True, 'False), 'False) + In the expression: _ :: Proxy '( '( 'True, 'False), 'False) I discovered that there were two copies of the PromotionFlag type (a boolean, with helpfully named data cons), one in IfaceType and one in HsType. So I combined into one, PromotionFlag, and moved it to BasicTypes. That's why quite a few files are touched, but it's all routine.
* Coercion Quantificationningning2018-09-151-17/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch corresponds to #15497. According to https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/DependentHaskell/Phase2, we would like to have coercion quantifications back. This will allow us to migrate (~#) to be homogeneous, instead of its current heterogeneous definition. This patch is (lots of) plumbing only. There should be no user-visible effects. An overview of changes: - Both `ForAllTy` and `ForAllCo` can quantify over coercion variables, but only in *Core*. All relevant functions are updated accordingly. - Small changes that should be irrelevant to the main task: 1. removed dead code `mkTransAppCo` in Coercion 2. removed out-dated Note Computing a coercion kind and roles in Coercion 3. Added `Eq4` in Note Respecting definitional equality in TyCoRep, and updated `mkCastTy` accordingly. 4. Various updates and corrections of notes and typos. - Haddock submodule needs to be changed too.

* Turn infinite loop into a panicSimon Peyton Jones2018-08-221-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In these two functions * TcIface.toIfaceAppTyArgsX * Type.piResultTys we take a type application (f t1 .. tn) and try to find its kind. It turned out that, if (f t1 .. tn) was ill-kinded the function would go into an infinite loop. That's not good: it caused the loop in Trac #15473. This patch doesn't fix the bug in #15473, but it does turn the loop into a decent panic, which is a step forward.
* Replace most occurences of foldl with foldl'.klebinger.andreas@gmx.at2018-08-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds foldl' to GhcPrelude and changes must occurences of foldl to foldl'. This leads to better performance especially for quick builds where GHC does not perform strictness analysis. It does change strictness behaviour when we use foldl' to turn a argument list into function applications. But this is only a drawback if code looks ONLY at the last argument but not at the first. And as the benchmarks show leads to fewer allocations in practice at O2.

* Use IfaceAppArgs to store an IfaceAppTy's argumentsRyan Scott2018-07-111-13/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Currently, an `IfaceAppTy` has no way to tell whether its argument is visible or not, so it simply treats all arguments as visible, leading to #15330. We already have a solution for this problem in the form of the `IfaceTcArgs` data structure, used by `IfaceTyConApp` to represent the arguments to a type constructor. Therefore, it makes sense to reuse this machinery for `IfaceAppTy`, so this patch does just that. This patch: 1. Renames `IfaceTcArgs` to `IfaceAppArgs` to reflect its more general purpose. 2. Changes the second field of `IfaceAppTy` from `IfaceType` to `IfaceAppArgs`, and propagates the necessary changes through. In particular, pretty-printing an `IfaceAppTy` now goes through the `IfaceAppArgs` pretty-printer, which correctly displays arguments as visible or not for free, fixing #15330. 3. Changes `toIfaceTypeX` and related functions so that when converting an `AppTy` to an `IfaceAppTy`, it flattens as many argument `AppTy`s as possible, and then converts those arguments into an `IfaceAppArgs` list, using the kind of the function `Type` as a guide. (Doing so minimizes the number of times we need to call `typeKind`, which is more expensive that finding the kind of a `TyCon`.)

* Track type variable scope more carefully.Richard Eisenberg2018-03-311-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main job of this commit is to track more accurately the scope of tyvars introduced by user-written foralls. For example, it would be to have something like this: forall a. Int -> (forall k (b :: k). Proxy '[a, b]) -> Bool In that type, a's kind must be k, but k isn't in scope. We had a terrible way of doing this before (not worth repeating or describing here, but see the old tcImplicitTKBndrs and friends), but now we have a principled approach: make an Implication when kind-checking a forall. Doing so then hooks into the existing machinery for preventing skolem-escape, performing floating, etc. This also means that we bump the TcLevel whenever going into a forall. The new behavior is done in TcHsType.scopeTyVars, but see also TcHsType.tc{Im,Ex}plicitTKBndrs, which have undergone significant rewriting. There are several Notes near there to guide you. Of particular interest there is that Implication constraints can now have skolems that are out of order; this situation is reported in TcErrors. A major consequence of this is a slightly tweaked process for type- checking type declarations. The new Note [Use SigTvs in kind-checking pass] in TcTyClsDecls lays it out. The error message for dependent/should_fail/TypeSkolEscape has become noticeably worse. However, this is because the code in TcErrors goes to some length to preserve pre-8.0 error messages for kind errors. It's time to rip off that plaster and get rid of much of the kind-error-specific error messages. I tried this, and doing so led to a lovely error message for TypeSkolEscape. So: I'm accepting the error message quality regression for now, but will open up a new ticket to fix it, along with a larger error-message improvement I've been pondering. This applies also to dependent/should_fail/{BadTelescope2,T14066,T14066e}, polykinds/T11142. Other minor changes: - isUnliftedTypeKind didn't look for tuples and sums. It does now. - check_type used check_arg_type on both sides of an AppTy. But the left side of an AppTy isn't an arg, and this was causing a bad error message. I've changed it to use check_type on the left-hand side. - Some refactoring around when we print (TYPE blah) in error messages. The changes decrease the times when we do so, to good effect. Of course, this is still all controlled by -fprint-explicit-runtime-reps Fixes #14066 #14749 Test cases: dependent/should_compile/{T14066a,T14749}, dependent/should_fail/T14066{,c,d,e,f,g,h}

* Refactor coercion holesSimon Peyton Jones2017-12-211-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In fixing Trac #14584 I found that it would be /much/ more convenient if a "hole" in a coercion (much like a unification variable in a type) acutally had a CoVar associated with it rather than just a Unique. Then I can ask what the free variables of a coercion is, and get a set of CoVars including those as-yet-un-filled in holes. Once that is done, it makes no sense to stuff coercion holes inside UnivCo. They were there before so we could know the kind and role of a "hole" coercion, but once there is a CoVar we can get that info from the CoVar. So I removed HoleProv from UnivCoProvenance and added HoleCo to Coercion. In summary: * Add HoleCo to Coercion and remove HoleProv from UnivCoProvanance * Similarly in IfaceCoercion * Make CoercionHole have a CoVar in it, not a Unique * Make tyCoVarsOfCo return the free coercion-hole variables as well as the ordinary free CoVars. Similarly, remember to zonk the CoVar in a CoercionHole We could go further, and remove CoercionHole as a distinct type altogther, just collapsing it into HoleCo. But I have not done that yet.

This change is necessary because we allow abstraction over unboxed tuple types and so cannot always handle unboxed tuples specially as we did before. * We sometimes have to create an Id from a PrimRep. I thus split PtrRep * into LiftedRep and UnliftedRep, so that the created Ids have the right strictness. * The RepType.RepType type was removed, as it didn't seem to help with * much. * The RepType.repType function is also removed, in favor of typePrimRep. * I have waffled a good deal on whether or not to keep VoidRep in TyCon.PrimRep. In the end, I decided to keep it there. PrimRep is *not* represented in RuntimeRep, and typePrimRep will never return a list including VoidRep. But it's handy to have in, e.g., ByteCodeGen and friends. I can imagine another design choice where we have a PrimRepV type that is PrimRep with an extra constructor. That seemed to be a heavier design, though, and I'm not sure what the benefit would be. * The last, unused vestiges of # (unliftedTypeKind) have been removed. * There were several pretty-printing bugs that this change exposed; * these are fixed. * We previously checked for levity polymorphism in the types of binders. * But we also must exclude levity polymorphism in function arguments. This is hard to check for, requiring a good deal of care in the desugarer. See Note [Levity polymorphism checking] in DsMonad. * In order to efficiently check for levity polymorphism in functions, it * was necessary to add a new bit of IdInfo. See Note [Levity info] in IdInfo. * It is now safe for unlifted types to be unsaturated in Core. Core Lint * is updated accordingly. * We can only know strictness after zonking, so several checks around * strictness in the type-checker (checkStrictBinds, the check for unlifted variables under a ~ pattern) have been moved to the desugarer. * Along the way, I improved the treatment of unlifted vs. banged * bindings. See Note [Strict binds checks] in DsBinds and #13075. * Now that we print type-checked source, we must be careful to print * ConLikes correctly. This is facilitated by a new HsConLikeOut constructor to HsExpr. Particularly troublesome are unlifted pattern synonyms that get an extra void# argument. * Includes a submodule update for haddock, getting rid of #. * New testcases: typecheck/should_fail/StrictBinds typecheck/should_fail/T12973 typecheck/should_run/StrictPats typecheck/should_run/T12809 typecheck/should_fail/T13105 patsyn/should_fail/UnliftedPSBind typecheck/should_fail/LevPolyBounded typecheck/should_compile/T12987 typecheck/should_compile/T11736 * Fixed tickets: #12809 #12973 #11736 #13075 #12987 * This also adds a test case for #13105. This test case is * "compile_fail" and succeeds, because I want the testsuite to monitor the error message. When #13105 is fixed, the test case will compile cleanly.

* Improve pretty-printing of typesSimon Peyton Jones2016-11-251-10/+10

Very good. This patch fixes two things * The new story is terrible for debug-printing with -ddump-tc-trace, because all the extra info in an open type was discarded ty the conversion to IfaceType. This patch adds IfaceTcTyVar to IfaceType, to carry a TcTyVar in debug situations. Quite an easy change, happily. These things never show up in interface files. * Now that we are going via IfaceType, it's essential to tidy before converting; otherwise forall k_23 k_34. blah is printed as forall k k. blah which is very unhelpful. Again this only shows up in debug printing.
* Another major constraint-solver refactoringSimon Peyton Jones2016-11-251-0/+2

It fixes a number of tricky bugs that made the constraint solver actually go into a loop, including Trac #12526 Trac #12444 Trac #12538 The main changes are these * Flatten unification variables (fmvs/fuvs) appear on the LHS of a tvar/tyvar equality; thus fmv ~ alpha and not alpha ~ fmv See Note [Put flatten unification variables on the left] in TcUnify. This is implemented by TcUnify.swapOverTyVars. * Don't reduce a "loopy" CFunEqCan where the fsk appears on the LHS: F t1 .. tn ~ fsk where 'fsk' is free in t1..tn. See Note [FunEq occurs-check principle] in TcInteract This neatly stops some infinite loops that people reported; and it allows us to delete some crufty code in reduce_top_fun_eq. And it appears to be no loss whatsoever. As well as fixing loops, ContextStack2 and T5837 both terminate when they didn't before. * Previously we generated "derived shadow" constraints from Wanteds, but we could (and sometimes did; Trac #xxxx) repeatedly generate a derived shadow from the same Wanted. A big change in this patch is to have two kinds of Wanteds: [WD] behaves like a pair of a Wanted and a Derived [W] behaves like a Wanted only See CtFlavour and ShadowInfo in TcRnTypes, and the ctev_nosh field of a Wanted. This turned out to be a lot simpler. A [WD] gets split into a [W] and a [D] in TcSMonad.maybeEmitShaodow. See TcSMonad Note [The improvement story and derived shadows] * Rather than have a separate inert_model in the InertCans, I've put the derived equalities back into inert_eqs. We weren't gaining anything from a separate field. * Previously we had a mode for the constraint solver in which it would more aggressively solve Derived constraints; it was used for simplifying the context of a 'deriving' clause, or a 'default' delcaration, for example. But the complexity wasn't worth it; now I just make proper Wanted constraints. See TcMType.cloneWC * Don't generate injectivity improvement for Givens; see Note [No FunEq improvement for Givens] in TcInteract * solveSimpleWanteds leaves the insolubles in-place rather than returning them. Simpler. I also did lots of work on comments, including fixing Trac #12821.
* Kill Type pretty-printerBen Gamari2016-11-131-0/+497
Here we consolidate the pretty-printing logic for types in IfaceType. We need IfaceType regardless and the printer for Type can be implemented in terms of that for IfaceType. See #11660. Note that this is very much a work-in-progress. Namely I still have yet to ponder how to ease the hs-boot file situation, still need to rip out more dead code, need to move some of the special cases for, e.g., `*` to the IfaceType printer, and need to get it to validate. That being said, it comes close to validating as-is.
