* lookupBindGroupOcc: recommend names in the same namespace (#17593)Ryan Scott2019-12-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Previously, `lookupBindGroupOcc`'s error message would recommend all similar names in scope, regardless of whether they were type constructors, data constructors, or functions, leading to the confusion witnessed in #17593. This is easily fixed by only recommending names in the same namespace, using the `nameSpacesRelated` function. Fixes #17593.
* Add GHC-API logging hooksSylvain Henry2019-12-181-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Add 'dumpAction' hook to DynFlags. It allows GHC API users to catch dumped intermediate codes and information. The format of the dump (Core, Stg, raw text, etc.) is now reported allowing easier automatic handling. * Add 'traceAction' hook to DynFlags. Some dumps go through the trace mechanism (for instance unfoldings that have been considered for inlining). This is problematic because: 1) dumps aren't written into files even with -ddump-to-file on 2) dumps are written on stdout even with GHC API 3) in this specific case, dumping depends on unsafe globally stored DynFlags which is bad for GHC API users We introduce 'traceAction' hook which allows GHC API to catch those traces and to avoid using globally stored DynFlags. * Avoid dumping empty logs via dumpAction/traceAction (but still write empty files to keep the existing behavior)
* Use "OrCoVar" functions lessKrzysztof Gogolewski2019-12-161-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | As described in #17291, we'd like to separate coercions and expressions in a more robust fashion. This is a small step in this direction. - `mkLocalId` now panicks on a covar. Calls where this was not the case were changed to `mkLocalIdOrCoVar`. - Don't use "OrCoVar" functions in places where we know the type is not a coercion.
* Pretty-printing of the * kindVladislav Zavialov2019-12-051-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, GHC always printed the * kind unparenthesized. This led to two issues: 1. Sometimes GHC printed invalid or incorrect code. For example, GHC would print: type F @* x = x when it meant to print: type F @(*) x = x In the former case, instead of a kind application we were getting a type operator (@*). 2. Sometimes GHC printed kinds that were correct but hard to read. Should Either * Int be read as Either (*) Int or as (*) Either Int ? This depends on whether -XStarIsType is enabled, but it would be easier if we didn't have to check for the flag when reading the code. We can solve both problems by assigning (*) a different precedence. Note that Haskell98 kinds are not affected: ((* -> *) -> *) -> * does NOT become (((*) -> (*)) -> (*)) -> (*) The parentheses are added when (*) is used in a function argument position: F * * * becomes F (*) (*) (*) F A * B becomes F A (*) B Proxy * becomes Proxy (*) a * -> * becomes a (*) -> *

* Ensure that coreView/tcView are able to inlineBen Gamari2019-11-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously an import cycle between Type and TyCoRep meant that several functions in TyCoRep ended up SOURCE import coreView. This is quite unfortunate as coreView is intended to be fused into a larger pattern match and not incur an extra call. Fix this with a bit of restructuring: * Move the functions in `TyCoRep` which depend upon things in `Type` into `Type` * Fold contents of `Kind` into `Type` and turn `Kind` into a simple wrapper re-exporting kind-ish things from `Type` * Clean up the redundant imports that popped up as a result Closes #17441.

* Clean up TH's treatment of unary tuples (or, #16881 part two)Ryan Scott2019-11-071-24/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | !1906 left some loose ends in regards to Template Haskell's treatment of unary tuples. This patch ends to tie up those loose ends: * In addition to having `TupleT 1` produce unary tuples, `TupE [exp]` and `TupP [pat]` also now produce unary tuples. * I have added various special cases in GHC's pretty-printers to ensure that explicit 1-tuples are printed using the `Unit` type. See `testsuite/tests/th/T17380`. * The GHC 8.10.1 release notes entry has been tidied up a little. Fixes #16881. Fixes #17371. Fixes #17380.

* Parenthesize nullary constraint tuples using sigPrec (#17403)Ryan Scott2019-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | We were using `appPrec`, not `sigPrec`, as the precedence when determining whether or not to parenthesize `() :: Constraint`, which lead to the parentheses being omitted in function contexts like `(() :: Constraint) => String`. Easily fixed. Fixes #17403.
* Make isTcLevPoly more conservative with newtypes (#17360)Ryan Scott2019-10-241-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | `isTcLevPoly` gives an approximate answer for when a type constructor is levity polymorphic when fully applied, where `True` means "possibly levity polymorphic" and `False` means "definitely not levity polymorphic". `isTcLevPoly` returned `False` for newtypes, which is incorrect in the presence of `UnliftedNewtypes`, leading to #17360. This patch tweaks `isTcLevPoly` to return `True` for newtypes instead. Fixes #17360.
* Parenthesize GADT return types in pprIfaceConDecl (#17384)Ryan Scott2019-10-241-1/+1

* Make dynflag argument for withTiming pure.Andreas Klebinger2019-10-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | 19 times out of 20 we already have dynflags in scope. We could just always use `return dflags`. But this is in fact not free. When looking at some STG code I noticed that we always allocate a closure for this expression in the heap. Clearly a waste in these cases. For the other cases we can either just modify the callsite to get dynflags or use the _D variants of withTiming I added which will use getDynFlags under the hood.

* Refactor iface file generation:Ömer Sinan Ağacan2019-09-305-167/+413
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Standalone kind signatures (#16794)wip/top-level-kind-signaturesVladislav Zavialov2019-09-252-46/+158
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implements GHC Proposal #54: .../ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0054-kind-signatures.rst With this patch, a type constructor can now be given an explicit standalone kind signature: {-# LANGUAGE StandaloneKindSignatures #-} type Functor :: (Type -> Type) -> Constraint class Functor f where fmap :: (a -> b) -> f a -> f b This is a replacement for CUSKs (complete user-specified kind signatures), which are now scheduled for deprecation. User-facing changes ------------------- * A new extension flag has been added, -XStandaloneKindSignatures, which implies -XNoCUSKs. * There is a new syntactic construct, a standalone kind signature: type <name> :: <kind> Declarations of data types, classes, data families, type families, and type synonyms may be accompanied by a standalone kind signature. * A standalone kind signature enables polymorphic recursion in types, just like a function type signature enables polymorphic recursion in terms. This obviates the need for CUSKs. * TemplateHaskell AST has been extended with 'KiSigD' to represent standalone kind signatures. * GHCi :info command now prints the kind signature of type constructors: ghci> :info Functor type Functor :: (Type -> Type) -> Constraint ... Limitations ----------- * 'forall'-bound type variables of a standalone kind signature do not scope over the declaration body, even if the -XScopedTypeVariables is enabled. See #16635 and #16734. * Wildcards are not allowed in standalone kind signatures, as partial signatures do not allow for polymorphic recursion. * Associated types may not be given an explicit standalone kind signature. Instead, they are assumed to have a CUSK if the parent class has a standalone kind signature and regardless of the -XCUSKs flag. * Standalone kind signatures do not support multiple names at the moment: type T1, T2 :: Type -> Type -- rejected type T1 = Maybe type T2 = Either String See #16754. * Creative use of equality constraints in standalone kind signatures may lead to GHC panics: type C :: forall (a :: Type) -> a ~ Int => Constraint class C a where f :: C a => a -> Int See #16758. Implementation notes -------------------- * The heart of this patch is the 'kcDeclHeader' function, which is used to kind-check a declaration header against its standalone kind signature. It does so in two rounds: 1. check user-written binders 2. instantiate invisible binders a la 'checkExpectedKind' * 'kcTyClGroup' now partitions declarations into declarations with a standalone kind signature or a CUSK (kinded_decls) and declarations without either (kindless_decls): * 'kinded_decls' are kind-checked with 'checkInitialKinds' * 'kindless_decls' are kind-checked with 'getInitialKinds' * DerivInfo has been extended with a new field: di_scoped_tvs :: ![(Name,TyVar)] These variables must be added to the context in case the deriving clause references tcTyConScopedTyVars. See #16731.

* ErrUtils: split withTiming into withTiming and withTimingSilentAlp Mestanogullari2019-09-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'withTiming' becomes a function that, when passed '-vN' (N >= 2) or '-ddump-timings', will print timing (and possibly allocations) related information. When additionally built with '-eventlog' and executed with '+RTS -l', 'withTiming' will also emit both 'traceMarker' and 'traceEvent' events to the eventlog. 'withTimingSilent' on the other hand will never print any timing information, under any circumstance, and will only emit 'traceEvent' events to the eventlog. As pointed out in !1672, 'traceMarker' is better suited for things that we might want to visualize in tools like eventlog2html, while 'traceEvent' is better suited for internal events that occur a lot more often and that we don't necessarily want to visualize. This addresses #17138 by using 'withTimingSilent' for all the codegen bits that are expressed as a bunch of small computations over streams of codegen ASTs.
* Remove unused imports of the form 'import foo ()' (Fixes #17065)James Foster2019-08-152-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | These kinds of imports are necessary in some cases such as importing instances of typeclasses or intentionally creating dependencies in the build system, but '-Wunused-imports' can't detect when they are no longer needed. This commit removes the unused ones currently in the code base (not including test files or submodules), with the hope that doing so may increase parallelism in the build system by removing unnecessary dependencies.

This also causes them to be written out to .hi files, but that doesn't pose an issue other than a more faithful bijection between `tyThingToIfaceDecl` and `tcIfaceDecl`. The machinery for displaying axiom incomps was already present but not in use. Since this is now a thing that pops up in ghci's :info the format was modified to look like a haskell comment.

* Work around redundant import issueBen Gamari2019-07-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | As mentioned in #16997, GHC currently complains about this import. In general I'm reluctant to paper over things like this but in the case of an hs-boot file I think adding an import list is the right thing to do regardless of the bug.
* Break up TyCoRepBen Gamari2019-07-313-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Fix #16511: changes in interface dependencies should trigger recompilationPhuong Trinh2019-07-091-9/+91
| | | | | | | If the union of dependencies of imported modules change, the `mi_deps` field of the interface files should change as well. Because of that, we need to check for changes in this in recompilation checker which we are not doing right now. This adds a checks for that.
* Move 'Platform' to ghc-bootJohn Ericson2019-06-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | ghc-pkg needs to be aware of platforms so it can figure out which subdire within the user package db to use. This is admittedly roundabout, but maybe Cabal could use the same notion of a platform as GHC to good affect too.
* Add PlainPanic for throwing exceptions without depending on pprintMichael Sloan2019-05-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit splits out a subset of GhcException which do not depend on pretty printing (SDoc), as a new datatype called PlainGhcException. These exceptions can be caught as GhcException, because 'fromException' will convert them. The motivation for this change is that that the Panic module transitively depends on many modules, primarily due to pretty printing code. It's on the order of about 130 modules. This large set of dependencies has a few implications: 1. To avoid cycles / use of boot files, these dependencies cannot throw GhcException. 2. There are some utility modules that use UnboxedTuples and also use `panic`. This means that when loading GHC into GHCi, about 130 additional modules would need to be compiled instead of interpreted. Splitting the non-pprint exception throwing into a new module resolves this issue. See #13101
* Make equality constraints in kinds invisibleRyan Scott2019-05-032-4/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Visible dependent quantificationRyan Scott2019-03-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements GHC proposal 35 (https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0035-forall-arrow.rst) by adding the ability to write kinds with visible dependent quantification (VDQ). Most of the work for supporting VDQ was actually done _before_ this patch. That is, GHC has been able to reason about kinds with VDQ for some time, but it lacked the ability to let programmers directly write these kinds in the source syntax. This patch is primarly about exposing this ability, by: * Changing `HsForAllTy` to add an additional field of type `ForallVisFlag` to distinguish between invisible `forall`s (i.e, with dots) and visible `forall`s (i.e., with arrows) * Changing `Parser.y` accordingly The rest of the patch mostly concerns adding validity checking to ensure that VDQ is never used in the type of a term (as permitting this would require full-spectrum dependent types). This is accomplished by: * Adding a `vdqAllowed` predicate to `TcValidity`. * Introducing `splitLHsSigmaTyInvis`, a variant of `splitLHsSigmaTy` that only splits invisible `forall`s. This function is used in certain places (e.g., in instance declarations) to ensure that GHC doesn't try to split visible `forall`s (e.g., if it tried splitting `instance forall a -> Show (Blah a)`, then GHC would mistakenly allow that declaration!) This also updates Template Haskell by introducing a new `ForallVisT` constructor to `Type`. Fixes #16326. Also fixes #15658 by documenting this feature in the users' guide.
* Add AnonArgFlag to FunTySimon Peyton Jones2019-02-235-44/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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
* Fix #16299 by deleting incorrect code from IfaceSynRyan Scott2019-02-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GHCi's `:info` command was pretty-printing Haskell98-style data types with explicit return kinds if the return kind wasn't `Type`. This leads to bizarre output like this: ``` λ> :i (##) data (##) :: TYPE ('GHC.Types.TupleRep '[]) = (##) -- Defined in ‘GHC.Prim’ ``` Or, with unlifted newtypes: ``` λ> newtype T = MkT Int# λ> :i T newtype T :: TYPE 'IntRep = MkT Int# -- Defined at <interactive>:5:1 ``` The solution is simple: just delete one part from `IfaceSyn` where GHC mistakenly pretty-prints the return kinds for non-GADTs.

* Fix treatment of hi-boot files and dfunsSimon Peyton Jones2018-12-211-30/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trac #16038 exposed the fact that TcRnDriver.checkHiBootIface was creating a binding, in the module being compiled, for $fxBlah = $fBlah but $fxBlah was a /GlobalId/. But all bindings should be for /LocalIds/ else dependency analysis goes down the tubes. * I added a CoreLint check that an occurrence of a GlobalId is not bound by an binding of a LocalId. (There is already a binding-site check that no binding binds a GlobalId.) * I refactored (and actually signficantly simplified) the tricky code for dfuns in checkHiBootIface to ensure that we get LocalIds for those boot-dfuns. Alas, I then got "duplicate instance" messages when compiling HsExpr. It turns out that this is a long-standing, but extremely delicate, bug: even before this patch, if you compile HsExpr with -ddump-tc-trace, you get "duplicate instance". Without -ddump-tc-trace, it's OK. What a mess! The reason for the duplicate-instance is now explained in Note [Loading your own hi-boot file] in LoadIface. I fixed it by a Gross Hack in LoadIface.loadInterface. This is at least no worse than before. But there should be a better way. I have opened #16081 for this.
