* Do not imply NoStarIsType by TypeOperators/TypeInTypeVladislav Zavialov2018-07-161-9/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implementation of the "Embrace TypeInType" proposal was done according to the spec, which specified that TypeOperators must imply NoStarIsType. This implication was meant to prevent breakage and to be removed in 2 releases. However, compiling head.hackage has shown that this implication only magnified the breakage, so there is no reason to have it in the first place. To remain in compliance with the three-release policy, we add a workaround to define the (*) type operator even when -XStarIsType is on.

* driver: skip -Bsymbolic on unregisterised targets (Trac #15338)Sergei Trofimovich2018-07-161-2/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trac #15338 is yet another example where -Bsymbolic breaks semantics of a C program: global variable duplication happens and unsafePerformIO creates two stdout copies. When -Bsymbolic is not used both C compiler and linker agree on how global variables are handled. In case of sh4 it consists on a few assertions: 1. global variable is exported from shared library 2. code is referred to this variable via GOT-like mechanism to allow interposition 3. global variable is present .bss section on an executable (as an R_*_COPY relocation: symbol contents is copied at executable startup time) 4. and symbol in executable interposes symbol in shared library. This way both code in shared library and code in executable refer to a copy of global variable in .bss section of an executable. Unfortunately -Bsymbolic option breaks assumption [2.] and generates direct references to the symbol. This causes mismatch between values seen from executable and values seen from shared library code. This change disables '-Bsymbolic' for unregisterised targets.

* Add flag to show docs of valid hole fitsMatthías Páll Gissurarson2018-07-121-0/+3

This diff adds a new flag, `-fshow-docs-of-hole-fits` that adds the documentation of the identifier in question to the message, using the same mechanism as the `:doc` command. As an example, with this flag enabled, the valid hole fits for `_ :: [Int] -> Int` will include: ``` Valid hole fits include head :: forall a. [a] -> a {-^ Extract the first element of a list, which must be non-empty.-} with head @Int (imported from ‘Prelude’ (and originally defined in ‘GHC.List’)) ``` And one of the refinement hole fits, `($) _`, will read: ``` Valid refinement hole fits include ... ($) (_ :: [Int] -> Int) where ($) :: forall a b. (a -> b) -> a -> b {-^ Application operator. This operator is redundant, since ordinary application @(f x)@ means the same as @(f '$' x)@. However, '$' has low, right-associative binding precedence, so it sometimes allows parentheses to be omitted; for example: > f $ g $ h x = f (g (h x)) It is also useful in higher-order situations, such as @'map' ('$' 0) xs@, or @'Data.List.zipWith' ('$') fs xs@. Note that @($)@ is levity-polymorphic in its result type, so that foo $ True where foo :: Bool -> Int# is well-typed-} with ($) @'GHC.Types.LiftedRep @[Int] @Int (imported from ‘Prelude’ (and originally defined in ‘GHC.Base’)) ``` Another example of where documentation can come in very handy, is when working with the `lens` library. When you compile ``` {-# OPTIONS_GHC -fno-show-provenance-of-hole-fits -fshow-docs-of-hole-fits #-} module LensDemo where import Control.Lens import Control.Monad.State newtype Test = Test { _value :: Int } deriving (Show) value :: Lens' Test Int value f (Test i) = Test <$> f i updTest :: Test -> Test updTest t = t &~ do _ value (1 :: Int) ``` You get: ``` Valid hole fits include (#=) :: forall s (m :: * -> *) a b.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When GHC links binaries on windows, we pass a -L and -l flag to gcc for each dependency in the transitive dependency closure. As this will usually overflow the command argument limit on windows, we use response files to pass all arguments to gcc. gcc however internally passes only the -l flags via a response file to the collect2 command, but puts the -L flags on the command line. As such if we pass enough -L flags to gcc--even via a response file--we will eventually overflow the command line argument length limit due to gcc passing them to collect2 without resorting to a response file. To prevent this from happening we move all lirbaries into a shared temporary folder, and only need to pass a single -L flag to gcc. Ideally however this was fixed in gcc.

In order to preserve backward compatibility, various legacy features were left unchanged. For example, with -XDataKinds but not -XTypeInType, GADTs could not be used in types. Now these restrictions are lifted and -XTypeInType becomes a redundant flag that will be eventually deprecated. * Incorporate the features currently in -XTypeInType into the -XPolyKinds and -XDataKinds extensions. * Introduce a new extension -XStarIsType to control how to parse * in code and whether to print it in error messages.

This introduces the `DerivingVia` deriving strategy. This is a generalization of `GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving` that permits the user to specify the type to `coerce` from. The major change in this patch is the introduction of the `ViaStrategy` constructor to `DerivStrategy`, which takes a type as a field. As a result, `DerivStrategy` is no longer a simple enumeration type, but rather something that must be renamed and typechecked. The process by which this is done is explained more thoroughly in section 3 of this paper ( https://www.kosmikus.org/DerivingVia/deriving-via-paper.pdf ), although I have inlined the relevant parts into Notes where possible. There are some knock-on changes as well. I took the opportunity to do some refactoring of code in `TcDeriv`, especially the `mkNewTypeEqn` function, since it was bundling all of the logic for (1) deriving instances for newtypes and (2) `GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving` into one huge broth. `DerivingVia` reuses much of part (2), so that was factored out as much as possible.

In effect, such Given constraints are like local instance decls. * When trying to solve a class constraint, via TcInteract.matchInstEnv, use the InstEnv from inert_insts so that we include the local Given forall-constraints in the lookup. (See TcSMonad.getInstEnvs.) * topReactionsStage calls doTopReactOther for CIrredCan and CTyEqCan, so they can try to react with any given quantified constraints (TcInteract.matchLocalInst) * TcCanonical.canForAll deals with solving a forall-constraint.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With GADTs, it is possible to write programs such that the type constraints make some code branches inaccessible. Take, for example, the following program :: {-# LANGUAGE GADTs #-} data Foo a where Foo1 :: Foo Char Foo2 :: Foo Int data TyEquality a b where Refl :: TyEquality a a checkTEQ :: Foo t -> Foo u -> Maybe (TyEquality t u) checkTEQ x y = error "unimportant" step2 :: Bool step2 = case checkTEQ Foo1 Foo2 of Just Refl -> True -- Inaccessible code Nothing -> False Clearly, the `Just Refl` case cannot ever be reached, because the `Foo1` and `Foo2` constructors say `t ~ Char` and `u ~ Int`, while the `Refl` constructor essentially mandates `t ~ u`, and thus `Char ~ Int`. Previously, GHC would reject such programs entirely; however, in practice this is too harsh. Accepting such code does little harm, since attempting to use the "impossible" code will still produce errors down the chain, while rejecting it means we cannot legally write or generate such code at all. Hence, we turn the error into a warning, and provide `-Winaccessible-code` to control GHC's behavior upon encountering this situation.

* dead strip dylibs on macOSMoritz Angermann2018-05-302-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When linking dynamic libraries or executables, we compute the full transitive closure over the dependencies, and instruct the linker to link all dependencies. With deep dependency trees the number of transitive dependencies can grow quickly. macOS since the Sierra release has an upper limit on the load command sizes the linker parses when loading dynamic lirbaries. As such it is mandatory to keep the number of load commands (and their size) small on recent macOS releases. An approach that would just link direct dependencies as specified by the -package-id flag is insufficient, because GHC can inline across packages and the library or executable being linked could refer to symbols deep in the dependency tree. If we just recursively linked librarys and re-exported their symbols, this increases the number of symbols in libraries with many dependencies and ultimately puts excessive strain on the linker to the point where linking takes a lot longer than even the compilation of the modules. We can however build a list of symbols from the obejcts we want to link, and try to compute the libraries we need to link that contain those symbols from the transitive dependency closure. Luckily, we don't need to write this ourselves, but can use the ld64 `-dead_strip_dylibs` linker flag on macOS to achive the same result. This will link only the libraries that are actually referenced, which is usually a small subset of the full transitive dependency closure. As such we should stay within the load command size limit for almost all but pathological cases.

* Implement "An API for deciding whether plugins should cause recompilation"Matthew Pickering2018-05-303-15/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements the API proposed as pull request #108 for plugin authors to influence the recompilation checker. It adds a new field to a plugin which computes a `FingerPrint`. This is recorded in interface files and if it changes then we recompile the module. There are also helper functions such as `purePlugin` and `impurePlugin` for constructing plugins which have simple recompilation semantics but in general, an author can compute a hash as they wish.

* Improved Valid Hole FitsMatthías Páll Gissurarson2018-05-301-32/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've changed the name from `Valid substitutions` to `Valid hole fits`, since "substitution" already has a well defined meaning within the theory. As part of this change, the flags and output is reanamed, with substitution turning into hole-fit in most cases. "hole fit" was already used internally in the code, it's clear and shouldn't cause any confusion. In this update, I've also reworked how we manage side-effects in the hole we are considering. This allows us to consider local bindings such as where clauses and arguments to functions, suggesting e.g. `a` for `head (x:xs) where head :: [a] -> a`. It also allows us to find suggestions such as `maximum` for holes of type `Ord a => a -> [a]`, and `max` when looking for a match for the hole in `g = foldl1 _`, where `g :: Ord a => [a] -> a`. We also show much improved output for refinement hole fits, and fixes #14990. We now show the correct type of the function, but we also now show what the arguments to the function should be e.g. `foldl1 (_ :: Integer -> Integer -> Integer)` when looking for `[Integer] -> Integer`. I've moved the bulk of the code from `TcErrors.hs` to a new file, `TcHoleErrors.hs`, since it was getting too big to not live on it's own. This addresses the considerations raised in #14969, and takes proper care to set the `tcLevel` of the variables to the right level before passing it to the simplifier. We now also zonk the suggestions properly, which improves the output of the refinement hole fits considerably. This also filters out suggestions from the `GHC.Err` module, since even though `error` and `undefined` are indeed valid hole fits, they are "trivial", and almost never useful to the user. We now find the hole fits using the proper manner, namely by solving nested implications. This entails that the givens are passed along using the implications the hole was nested in, which in turn should mean that there will be fewer weird bugs in the typed holes. I've also added a new sorting method (as suggested by SPJ) and sort by the size of the types needed to turn the hole fits into the type of the hole. This gives a reasonable approximation to relevance, and is much faster than the subsumption check. I've also added a flag to toggle whether to use this new sorting algorithm (as is done by default) or the subsumption algorithm. This fixes #14969 I've also added documentation for these new flags and update the documentation according to the new output.

* Extract hard-coded LLVM opt flags into a fileKavon Farvardin2018-05-304-20/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To resolve ticket #11295, I think it makes sense to stop hard-coding the pass sequences used by GHC when compiling with LLVM into the compiler itself. This patchset introduces a companion to the existing `llvm-targets` file called `llvm-passes`. The passes file is a simple association list that holds the default LLVM `opt` pass sequence used by GHC. This allows end users to easily save their favorite optimization flags when compiling with LLVM. The main benefit for ticket #11295 is that when adding a custom pass sequence, it tends to be an extremely long string that would be unsightly in the code. This is essentially part 1 of 2 for ticket #11295.

* An overhaul of the SRT representationSimon Marlow2018-05-161-13/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: - Previously we would hvae a single big table of pointers per module, with a set of bitmaps to reference entries within it. The new representation is identical to a static constructor, which is much simpler for the GC to traverse, and we get to remove the complicated bitmap-traversal code from the GC. - Rewrite all the code to generate SRTs in CmmBuildInfoTables, and document it much better (see Note [SRTs]). This has been something I've wanted to do since we moved to the new code generator, I finally had the opportunity to finish it while on a transatlantic flight recently :) There are a series of 4 diffs: 1. D4632 (this one), which does the bulk of the changes 2. D4633 which adds support for smaller `CmmLabelDiffOff` constants 3. D4634 which takes advantage of D4632 and D4633 to save a word in info tables that have an SRT on x86_64. This is where most of the binary size improvement comes from. 4. D4637 which makes a further optimisation to merge some SRTs with static FUN closures. This adds some complexity and the benefits are fairly modest, so it's not clear yet whether we should do this. Results (after (3), on x86_64) - GHC itself (staticaly linked) is 5.2% smaller - -1.7% binary sizes in nofib, -2.9% module sizes. Full nofib results: P176 - I measured the overhead of traversing all the static objects in a major GC in GHC itself by doing `replicateM_ 1000 performGC` as the first thing in `Main.main`. The new version was 5-10% faster, but the results did vary quite a bit. - I'm not sure if there's a compile-time difference, the results are too unreliable.

* Less Tc inside simplCore (Phase 1 for #14391)Artem Pelenitsyn2018-05-152-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Simplifier depends on typechecker in two points: `thNameToGhcName` (`lookupThName_maybe`, in particular) and `lookupGlobal`. We want to cut the ties in two steps. 1. (Presented in this commit), reimplement both functions in a way that doesn't use typechecker. 2. (Should follow), do code moving: a) `lookupGlobal` should go in some typechecker-free place; b) `thNameToGhcName` should leave simplifier, because it is not used there at all (probably, it should be placed somewhere where `GhcPlugins` can see it -- this is suggested by Joachim on Trac). Details ======= We redesigned lookup interface a bit so that it exposes some `IO`-equivalents of `Tc`-features in use. First, `CoreMonad.hs` still calls `lookupGlobal` which is no longer bound to the typechecker monad, but still resides in `TcEnv.hs` — it should be moved out of Tc-land at some point (“Phase 2”) in the future in order to achieve its part of the #14391's goal. Second, `lookupThName_maybe` is eliminated from `CoreMonad.hs` completely; this already achieves its part of the goal of #14391. Its client, though, `thNameToGhcName`, is better to be moved in the future also, for it is not used in the `CoreMonad.hs` (or anywhere else) anyway. Joachim suggested “any module reexported by GhcPlugins (or maybe even that module itself)”. As a side goal, we removed `initTcForLookup` which was instrumental for the past version of `lookupGlobal`. This, in turn, called for pushing some more parts of the lookup interface from the `Tc`-monad to `IO`, most notably, adding `IO`-version of `lookupOrig` and pushing `dataConInfoPtrToName` to `IO`. The `lookupOrig` part, in turn, triggered a slight redesign of name cache updating interface: we now have both, `updNameCacheIO` and `updNameCacheTc`, both accepting `mod` and `occ` to force them inside, instead of more error-prone outside before. But all these hardly have to do anything with #14391, mere refactoring.

To this end, I propose to use the name `-` (i.e. a single dash), as that is more portable than using the empty string for environment variables. In other words, a - `-package-env -` CLI flag, or a - `GHC_ENVIRONMENT=-` env var (unless a `-package-env` flag is present) would inhibit GHC from looking up and interpreting any package environment files from the filesystem; this is the equivalent of `-ignore-dot-ghci` for package environment files.
