* Add Int8# and Word8#Michal Terepeta2018-11-025-76/+192
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the first step of implementing: https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/74 The main highlights/changes: primops.txt.pp gets two new sections for two new primitive types for signed and unsigned 8-bit integers (Int8# and Word8 respectively) along with basic arithmetic and comparison operations. PrimRep/RuntimeRep get two new constructors for them. All of the primops translate into the existing MachOPs. For CmmCalls the codegen will now zero-extend the values at call site (so that they can be moved to the right register) and then truncate them back their original width. x86 native codegen needed some updates, since it wasn't able to deal with the new widths, but all the changes are quite localized. LLVM backend seems to just work. This is the second attempt at merging this, after the first attempt in D4475 had to be backed out due to regressions on i386. Bumps binary submodule.

* Finish fix for #14880.Tobias Dammers2018-10-281-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The real change that fixes the ticket is described in Note [Naughty quantification candidates] in TcMType. Fixing this required reworking candidateQTyVarsOfType, the function that extracts free variables as candidates for quantification. One consequence is that we now must be more careful when quantifying: any skolems around must be quantified manually, and quantifyTyVars will now only quantify over metavariables. This makes good sense, as skolems are generally user-written and are listed in the AST. As a bonus, we now have more control over the ordering of such skolems. Along the way, this commit fixes #15711 and refines the fix to #14552 (by accepted a program that was previously rejected, as we can now accept that program by zapping variables to Any). This commit also does a fair amount of rejiggering kind inference of datatypes. Notably, we now can skip the generalization step in kcTyClGroup for types with CUSKs, because we get the kind right the first time. This commit also thus fixes #15743 and #15592, which both concern datatype kind generalisation. (#15591 is also very relevant.) For this aspect of the commit, see Note [Required, Specified, and Inferred in types] in TcTyClsDecls.

* Add RubbishLit for absent bindings of UnliftedRepSebastian Graf2018-10-142-1/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Trac #9279 reminded us that the worker wrapper transformation copes really badly with absent unlifted boxed bindings. As `Note [Absent errors]` in WwLib.hs points out, we can't just use `absentError` for unlifted bindings because there is no bottom to hide the error in. So instead, we synthesise a new `RubbishLit` of type `forall (a :: TYPE 'UnliftedRep). a`, which code-gen may subsitute for any boxed value. We choose `()`, so that there is a good chance that the program crashes instead instead of leading to corrupt data, should absence analysis have been too optimistic (#11126).

* Make GHC (the library) flexible in the choice of integer libraryJoachim Breitner2018-10-031-14/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: We have more and more users of GHC as a library, for example the Haskell-to-WebAssembly-compiler https://github.com/tweag/asterius. These need to make different decisions about various aspects of code generation than the host compiler, and ideally GHC-the-library allows them to set the `DynFlags` as needed. This patch adds a new `DynFlag` that configures which `integer` library to use. This flag is initialized by `cIntegerLibraryType` (as before), and is only used in `CorePrep` to decide whether to use `S#` or not. The other code paths that were varying based on `cIntegerLibraryType` are no now longer varying: The trick is to use `integer-wired-in` as the `-this-unit-id` when compiling either `integer-gmp` or `integer-simple`.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Fix a constant folding ruleAndrey Mokhov2018-08-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: One of the constant folding rules introduced in D2858 is: ``` (L y :-: v) :-: (L x :-: w) -> return $ mkL (y-x) `add` (w `add` v) ``` Or, after removing syntactic noise: `(y - v) - (x - w) ==> (y - x) + (w + v)`. This is incorrect, since the sign of `v` is changed from negative to positive. As a consequence, the following program prints `3` when compiled with `-O`: ``` -- This is just subtraction in disguise minus :: Int -> Int -> Int minus x y = (8 - y) - (8 - x) {-# NOINLINE minus #-} main :: IO () main = print (2 `minus` 1) ``` The correct rule is: `(y - v) - (x - w) ==> (y - x) + (w - v)`. This commit does the fix. I haven't found any other issues with the constant folding code, but it's difficult to be certain without some automated checking.

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, `funTyConName` is defined as: ```lang=haskell funTyConName = mkPrimTyConName (fsLit "(->)") funTyConKey funTyCon ``` What's strange about this definition is that there are extraneous parentheses around `->`, which is quite unlike every other infix `Name`. As a result, the `:info (->)` output is totally garbled (see Trac #15236). It's quite straightforward to fix that particular bug by removing the extraneous parentheses. However, it turns out that this makes some test output involving `Show` instances for `TypeRep` look less appealing, since `->` is no longer surrounded with parentheses when applied prefix. But neither were any /other/ infix type constructors! The right fix there was to change `showTypeable` to put parentheses around prefix applications of infix tycons.

* Don't expose (~#), (~R#), (~P#) from GHC.PrimRyan Scott2018-06-072-6/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the primitive `(~#)`, `(~R#)`, and `(~P#)` type constructors are wired in to be exported from `GHC.Prim`. This has some unfortunate consequences, however. It turns out that `(~#)` is actually a legal infix identifier, so users can make use of unboxed equalities in strange ways in user code (see #15209). The other two, `(~R#)` and `(~P#)`, can't be used in source code, but they can be observed with GHCi's `:browse` command, which is somewhat unnerving. The fix for both of these problems is simple: just don't wire them to be exported from `GHC.Prim`.

* Introduce DerivingViaRyan Scott2018-06-041-22/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements the `DerivingVia` proposal put forth in https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/120. 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Poor DPH and its vectoriser have long been languishing; sadly it seems there is little chance that the effort will be rekindled. Every few years we discuss what to do with this mass of code and at least once we have agreed that it should be archived on a branch and removed from `master`. Here we do just that, eliminating heaps of dead code in the process. Here we drop the ParallelArrays extension, the vectoriser, and the `vector` and `primitive` submodules.

* Add HeapView functionalityPatrick Dougherty2018-05-201-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This pulls parts of Joachim Breitner's ghc-heap-view library inside GHC. The bits added are the C hooks into the RTS and a basic Haskell wrapper to these C hooks. The main reason for these to be added to GHC proper is that the code needs to be kept in sync with the closure types defined by the RTS. It is expected that the version of HeapView shipped with GHC will always work with that version of GHC and that extra functionality can be layered on top with a library like ghc-heap-view distributed via Hackage.

* Fix #15039 by pretty-printing equalities more systematicallyRyan Scott2018-05-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GHC previously had a handful of special cases for pretty-printing equalities in a more user-friendly manner, but they were far from comprehensive (see #15039 for an example of where this fell apart). This patch makes the pretty-printing of equalities much more systematic. I've adopted the approach laid out in https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15039#comment:4, and updated `Note [Equality predicates in IfaceType]` accordingly. We are now more careful to respect the properties of the `-fprint-explicit-kinds` and `-fprint-equality-relations` flags, which led to some improvements in error message outputs. Along the way, I also tweaked the error-reporting machinery not to print out the type of a typed hole when the type is an unlifted equality, since it's kind (`TYPE ('TupleRep '[])`) was more confusing than anything.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the `{add,sub}{Int,Word}C#` PrimOps weren't handled in PrelRules (constant folding and algebraic simplification) at all. This implements the necessary logic, so that using these primitives isn't too punishing compared to their well-optimised, overflow-unaware counterparts. This is so that using these primitives in `enumFromThenTo @Int` can be optimized by constant folding, reducing closure sizes.

* Track type variable scope more carefully.Richard Eisenberg2018-03-311-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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}
