* Ensure that coreView/tcView are able to inlineBen Gamari2019-11-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Metric Decrease: T4334
* Break up TcRnTypes, among other modules.Richard Eisenberg2019-10-161-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces three new modules: - basicTypes/Predicate.hs describes predicates, moving this logic out of Type. Predicates don't really exist in Core, and so don't belong in Type. - typecheck/TcOrigin.hs describes the origin of constraints and types. It was easy to remove from other modules and can often be imported instead of other, scarier modules. - typecheck/Constraint.hs describes constraints as used in the solver. It is taken from TcRnTypes. No work other than module splitting is in this patch. This is the first step toward homogeneous equality, which will rely more strongly on predicates. And homogeneous equality is the next step toward a dependently typed core language.
* Improve documentation around empty tuples/listsRichard Eisenberg2019-10-031-18/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch also changes the way we handle empty lists, simplifying them somewhat. See Note [Empty lists]. Previously, we had to special-case empty lists in the type-checker. Now no more! Finally, this patch improves some documentation around the ir_inst field used in the type-checker. This breaks a test case, but I really think the problem is #17251, not really related to this patch. Test case: typecheck/should_compile/T13680

* Fix over-eager implication constraint discardSimon Peyton Jones2019-07-041-0/+7
| | | | | | | | Ticket #16247 showed that we were discarding an implication constraint that had empty ic_wanted, when we still needed to keep it so we could check whether it had a bad telescope. Happily it's a one line fix. All the rest is comments!
* Add a missing zonk (fixes #16902)Simon Peyton Jones2019-07-041-10/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the eager unifier, when unifying (tv1 ~ tv2), when we decide to swap them over, to unify (tv2 ~ tv1), I'd forgotten to ensure that tv1's kind was fully zonked, which is an invariant of uUnfilledTyVar2. That could lead us to build an infinite kind, or (in the case of #16902) update the same unification variable twice. Yikes. Now we get an error message rather than non-termination, which is much better. The error message is not great, but it's a very strange program, and I can't see an easy way to improve it, so for now I'm just committing this fix. Here's the decl data F (a :: k) :: (a ~~ k) => Type where MkF :: F a and the rather error message of which I am not proud T16902.hs:11:10: error: • Expected a type, but found something with kind ‘a1’ • In the type ‘F a’

* Reject nested predicates in impredicativity checkingRyan Scott2019-03-201-37/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When GHC attempts to unify a metavariable with a type containing foralls, it will be rejected as an occurrence of impredicativity. GHC was /not/ extending the same treatment to predicate types, such as in the following (erroneous) example from #11514: ```haskell foo :: forall a. (Show a => a -> a) -> () foo = undefined ``` This will attempt to instantiate `undefined` at `(Show a => a -> a) -> ()`, which is impredicative. This patch catches impredicativity arising from predicates in this fashion. Since GHC is pickier about impredicative instantiations, some test cases needed to be updated to be updated so as not to fall afoul of the new validity check. (There were a surprising number of impredicative uses of `undefined`!) Moreover, the `T14828` test case now has slightly less informative types shown with `:print`. This is due to a a much deeper issue with the GHCi debugger (see #14828). Fixes #11514.
* Improve error recovery in the typecheckerSimon Peyton Jones2019-03-161-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Issue #16418 showed that we were carrying on too eagerly after a bogus type signature was identified (a bad telescope in fact), leading to a subsequent crash. This led me in to a maze of twisty little passages in the typechecker's error recovery, and I ended up doing some refactoring in TcRnMonad. Some specfifics * TcRnMonad.try_m is now called attemptM. * I switched the order of the result pair in tryTc, to make it consistent with other similar functions. * The actual exception used in the Tc monad is irrelevant so, to avoid polluting type signatures, I made tcTryM, a simple wrapper around tryM, and used it. The more important changes are in * TcSimplify.captureTopConstraints, where we should have been calling simplifyTop rather than reportUnsolved, so that levity defaulting takes place properly. * TcUnify.emitResidualTvConstraint, where we need to set the correct status for a new implication constraint. (Previously we ended up with an Insoluble constraint wrapped in an Unsolved implication, which meant that insolubleWC gave the wrong answer.

* Add AnonArgFlag to FunTySimon Peyton Jones2019-02-231-15/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

* Make a smart mkAppTyMSimon Peyton Jones2019-02-141-22/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch finally delivers on Trac #15952. Specifically * Completely remove Note [The tcType invariant], along with its complicated consequences (IT1-IT6). * Replace Note [The well-kinded type invariant] with: Note [The Purely Kinded Type Invariant (PKTI)] * Instead, establish the (PKTI) in TcHsType.tcInferApps, by using a new function mkAppTyM when building a type application. See Note [mkAppTyM]. * As a result we can remove the delicate mkNakedXX functions entirely. Specifically, mkNakedCastTy retained lots of extremly delicate Refl coercions which just cluttered everything up, and(worse) were very vulnerable to being silently eliminated by (say) substTy. This led to a succession of bug reports. The result is noticeably simpler to explain, simpler to code, and Richard and I are much more confident that it is correct. It does not actually fix any bugs, but it brings us closer. E.g. I hoped it'd fix #15918 and #15799, but it doesn't quite do so. However, it makes it much easier to fix. I also did a raft of other minor refactorings: * Use tcTypeKind consistently in the type checker * Rename tcInstTyBinders to tcInvisibleTyBinders, and refactor it a bit * Refactor tcEqType, pickyEqType, tcEqTypeVis Simpler, probably more efficient. * Make zonkTcType zonk TcTyCons, at least if they have any free unification variables -- see zonk_tc_tycon in TcMType.zonkTcTypeMapper. Not zonking these TcTyCons was actually a bug before. * Simplify try_to_reduce_no_cache in TcFlatten (a lot) * Combine checkExpectedKind and checkExpectedKindX. And then combine the invisible-binder instantation code Much simpler now. * Fix a little bug in TcMType.skolemiseQuantifiedTyVar. I'm not sure how I came across this originally. * Fix a little bug in TyCoRep.isUnliftedRuntimeRep (the ASSERT was over-zealous). Again I'm not certain how I encountered this. * Add a missing solveLocalEqualities in TcHsType.tcHsPartialSigType. I came across this when trying to get level numbers right.
* Introduce tcTypeKind, and use itSimon Peyton Jones2018-12-031-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the type checker Constraint and * are distinct; and the function that takes the kind of a type should respect that distinction (Trac #15971). This patch implements the change: * Introduce Type.tcTypeKind, and use it throughout the type inference engine * Add new Note [Kinding rules for types] for the kinding rules, especially for foralls. * Redefine isPredTy ty = tcIsConstraintKind (tcTypeKind ty) (it had a much more complicated definition before) Some miscellaneous refactoring * Get rid of TyCoRep.isTYPE, Kind.isTYPEApp, in favour of TyCoRep.kindRep, kindRep_maybe * Rename Type.getRuntimeRepFromKind_maybe to getRuntimeRep_maybe I did some spot-checks on compiler perf, and it really doesn't budge (as expected).

However it has turned into a truly major refactoring of the kind inference engine. Let's deal with the level-numbers part first: * Augment quantifyTyVars to calculate the type variables to quantify using level numbers, and compare the result with the existing approach. That is; no change in behaviour, just a WARNing if the two approaches give different answers. * To do this I had to get the level number right when calling quantifyTyVars, and this entailed a bit of care, especially in the code for kind-checking type declarations. * However, on the way I was able to eliminate or simplify a number of calls to solveEqualities. This work is incomplete: I'm not /using/ level numbers yet. When I subsequently get rid of any remaining WARNings in quantifyTyVars, that the level-number answers differ from the current answers, then I can rip out the current "free vars of the environment" stuff. Anyway, this led me into deep dive into kind inference for type and class declarations, which is an increasingly soggy part of GHC. Richard already did some good work recently in commit 5e45ad10ffca1ad175b10f6ef3327e1ed8ba25f3 Date: Thu Sep 13 09:56:02 2018 +0200 Finish fix for #14880. The real change that fixes the ticket is described in Note [Naughty quantification candidates] in TcMType. but I kept turning over stones. So this patch has ended up with a pretty significant refactoring of that code too. Kind inference for types and classes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Major refactoring in the way we generalise the inferred kind of a TyCon, in kcTyClGroup. Indeed, I made it into a new top-level function, generaliseTcTyCon. Plus a new Note to explain it Note [Inferring kinds for type declarations]. * We decided (Trac #15592) not to treat class type variables specially when dealing with Inferred/Specified/Required for associated types. That simplifies things quite a bit. I also rewrote Note [Required, Specified, and Inferred for types] * Major refactoring of the crucial function kcLHsQTyVars: I split it into kcLHsQTyVars_Cusk and kcLHsQTyVars_NonCusk because the two are really quite different. The CUSK case is almost entirely rewritten, and is much easier because of our new decision not to treat the class variables specially * I moved all the error checks from tcTyClTyVars (which was a bizarre place for it) into generaliseTcTyCon and/or the CUSK case of kcLHsQTyVars. Now tcTyClTyVars is extremely simple. * I got rid of all the all the subtleties in tcImplicitTKBndrs. Indeed now there is no difference between tcImplicitTKBndrs and kcImplicitTKBndrs; there is now a single bindImplicitTKBndrs. Same for kc/tcExplicitTKBndrs. None of them monkey with level numbers, nor build implication constraints. scopeTyVars is gone entirely, as is kcLHsQTyVarBndrs. It's vastly simpler. I found I could get rid of kcLHsQTyVarBndrs entirely, in favour of the bnew bindExplicitTKBndrs. Quantification ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * I now deal with the "naughty quantification candidates" of the previous patch in candidateQTyVars, rather than in quantifyTyVars; see Note [Naughty quantification candidates] in TcMType. I also killed off closeOverKindsCQTvs in favour of the same strategy that we use for tyCoVarsOfType: namely, close over kinds at the occurrences. And candidateQTyVars no longer needs a gbl_tvs argument. * Passing the ContextKind, rather than the expected kind itself, to tc_hs_sig_type_and_gen makes it easy to allocate the expected result kind (when we are in inference mode) at the right level. Type families ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * I did a major rewrite of the impenetrable tcFamTyPats. The result is vastly more comprehensible. * I got rid of kcDataDefn entirely, quite a big function. * I re-did the way that checkConsistentFamInst works, so that it allows alpha-renaming of invisible arguments. * The interaction of kind signatures and family instances is tricky. Type families: see Note [Apparently-nullary families] Data families: see Note [Result kind signature for a data family instance] and Note [Eta-reduction for data families] * The consistent instantation of an associated type family is tricky. See Note [Checking consistent instantiation] and Note [Matching in the consistent-instantation check] in TcTyClsDecls. It's now checked in TcTyClsDecls because that is when we have the relevant info to hand. * I got tired of the compromises in etaExpandFamInst, so I did the job properly by adding a field cab_eta_tvs to CoAxBranch. See Coercion.etaExpandCoAxBranch. tcInferApps and friends ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * I got rid of the mysterious and horrible ClsInstInfo argument to tcInferApps, checkExpectedKindX, and various checkValid functions. It was horrible! * I got rid of [Type] result of tcInferApps. This list was used only in tcFamTyPats, when checking the LHS of a type instance; and if there is a cast in the middle, the list is meaningless. So I made tcInferApps simpler, and moved the complexity (not much) to tcInferApps. Result: tcInferApps is now pretty comprehensible again. * I refactored the many function in TcMType that instantiate skolems. Smaller things * I rejigged the error message in checkValidTelescope; I think it's quite a bit better now. * checkValidType was not rejecting constraints in a kind signature forall (a :: Eq b => blah). blah2 That led to further errors when we then do an ambiguity check. So I make checkValidType reject it more aggressively. * I killed off quantifyConDecl, instead calling kindGeneralize directly. * I fixed an outright bug in tyCoVarsOfImplic, where we were not colleting the tyvar of the kind of the skolems * Renamed ClsInstInfo to AssocInstInfo, and made it into its own data type * Some fiddling around with pretty-printing of family instances which was trickier than I thought. I wanted wildcards to print as plain "_" in user messages, although they each need a unique identity in the CoAxBranch. Some other oddments * Refactoring around the trace messages from reportUnsolved. * A bit of extra tc-tracing in TcHsSyn.commitFlexi This patch fixes a raft of bugs, and includes tests for them. * #14887 * #15740 * #15764 * #15789 * #15804 * #15817 * #15870 * #15874 * #15881

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

| | | | | | | | | | | The reason for this change is described in TcUnify Note [Settting the argument context], and Trac #15438. The only effect is on error messages, where it stops GHC reporting an outright falsity (about the type signature for a function) when it finds an errors in a higher-rank situation. The testsuite changes in this patch illustrate the problem.
* Build more implicationsSimon Peyton Jones2018-07-251-8/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "non-local error" problem in Trac #14185 was due to the interaction of constraints from different function definitions. This patch makes a start towards fixing it. It adds TcUnify.alwaysBuildImplication to unconditionally build an implication in some cases, to keep the constraints from different functions separate. See the new Note [When to build an implication] in TcUnify. But a lot of error messages change, so for now I have set alwaysBuildImplication = False Result: no operational change at all. I'll get back to it!

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: It's rather unfortunate that derived code can produce inaccessible code warnings (as demonstrated in #8128, #8740, and #15398), since the programmer has no control over the generated code. This patch aims to suppress `-Winaccessible-code` in all derived code. It accomplishes this by doing the following: * Generalize the `ic_env :: TcLclEnv` field of `Implication` to be of type `Env TcGblEnc TcLclEnv` instead. This way, it also captures `DynFlags`, which record the flag state at the time the `Implication` was created. * When typechecking derived code, turn off `-Winaccessible-code`. This way, any insoluble given `Implication`s that are created when typechecking this derived code will remember that `-Winaccessible-code` was disabled. * During error reporting, consult the `DynFlags` of an `Implication` before making the decision to report an inaccessible code warning.

* Orient TyVar/TyVar equalities with deepest on the leftSimon Peyton Jones2018-05-181-73/+173
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trac #15009 showed that, for Given TyVar/TyVar equalities, we really want to orient them with the deepest-bound skolem on the left. As it happens, we also want to do the same for Wanteds, but for a different reason (more likely to be touchable). Either way, deepest wins: see TcUnify Note [Deeper level on the left]. This observation led me to some significant changes: * A SkolemTv already had a TcLevel, but the level wasn't really being used. Now it is! * I updated added invariant (SkolInf) to TcType Note [TcLevel and untouchable type variables], documenting that the level number of all the ic_skols should be the same as the ic_tclvl of the implication * FlatSkolTvs and FlatMetaTvs previously had a dummy level-number of zero, which messed the scheme up.

* Track type variable scope more carefully.Richard Eisenberg2018-03-311-10/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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}

See Note [Eliminate younger unification variables] in TcUnify. Sadly, it didn't improve perf, so I've put it aside, leaving some breadcrumbs for future generations of GHC hackers.

* Refactor coercion holesSimon Peyton Jones2017-12-211-7/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Fix a TyVar bug in the flattenerSimon Peyton Jones2017-11-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A year ago I gave up on trying to rigorously separate TyVars from TcTyVars, and instead allowed TyVars to appear rather more freely in types examined by the constraint solver: commit 18d0bdd3848201882bae167e3b15fd797d217e93 Author: Simon Peyton Jones <simonpj@microsoft.com> Date: Wed Nov 23 16:00:00 2016 +0000 Allow TyVars in TcTypes See Note [TcTyVars in the typechecker] in TcType. However, TcFlatten.flatten_tyvar1 turned out to treat a TyVar specially, and implicitly assumed that it could not have an equality constraint in the inert set. Wrong! This caused Trac #14450. Fortunately it is easily fixed, by deleting code.

* Revise function arity mismatch errors involving TypeApplicationsRyan Scott2017-08-221-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Currently, whenever you apply a function to too many arguments and some of those arguments happen to be visible type applications, the error message that GHC gives is rather confusing. Consider the message you receive when typechecking `id @Int 1 2`: ``` The function `id` is applied to three arguments, but its type `Int -> Int` has only one ``` This is baffling, since the two lines treat the visible type argument `@Int` differently. The top line ("applied to three arguments") includes `@Int`, whereas the bottom line ("has only one") excludes `@Int` from consideration. There are multiple ways one could fix this, which I explain in an addendum to `Note [Herald for matchExpectedFunTys]`. The approach adopted here is to change the herald of this error message to include visible type arguments, and to avoid counting them in the "applied to n arguments" part of the error. The end result is that the new error message for `id @Int 1 2` is now: ``` The expression `id @Int` is applied to two arguments, but its type `Int -> Int` has only one ``` Test Plan: make test TEST=T13902 Reviewers: goldfire, austin, bgamari Reviewed By: goldfire Subscribers: rwbarton, thomie GHC Trac Issues: #13902 Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D3868

* Track visibility in TypeEqOriginRichard Eisenberg2017-07-271-32/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A type equality error can arise from a mismatch between *invisible* arguments just as easily as from visible arguments. But we should really prefer printing out errors from visible arguments over invisible ones. Suppose we have a mismatch between `Proxy Int` and `Proxy Maybe`. Would you rather get an error between `Int` and `Maybe`? Or between `*` and `* -> *`? I thought so, too. There is a fair amount of plumbing with this one, but I think it's worth it. This commit introduces a performance regression in test perf/compiler/T5631. The cause of the regression is not the new visibility stuff, directly: it's due to a change from zipWithM to zipWith3M in TcUnify. To my surprise, zipWithM is nicely optimized (it fuses away), but zipWith3M is not. There are other examples of functions that could be made faster, so I've posted a separate ticket, #14037, to track these improvements. For now, I've accepted the small (6.6%) regression.
* Fix #13819 by refactoring TypeEqOrigin.uo_thingRichard Eisenberg2017-07-271-38/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The uo_thing field of TypeEqOrigin is used to track the "thing" (either term or type) that has the type (kind) stored in the TypeEqOrigin fields. Previously, this was sometimes a proper Core Type, which needed zonking and tidying. Now, it is only HsSyn: much simpler, and the error messages now use the user-written syntax. But this aspect of uo_thing didn't cause #13819; it was the sibling field uo_arity that did. uo_arity stored the number of arguments of uo_thing, useful when reporting something like "should have written 2 fewer arguments". We wouldn't want to say that if the thing didn't have two arguments. However, in practice, GHC was getting this wrong, and this message didn't seem all that helpful. Furthermore, the calculation of the number of arguments is what caused #13819 to fall over. This patch just removes uo_arity. In my opinion, the change to error messages is a nudge in the right direction. Test case: typecheck/should_fail/T13819
* Improve error messages around kind mismatches.Richard Eisenberg2017-07-271-19/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, when canonicalizing (or unifying, in uType) a heterogeneous equality, we emitted a kind equality and used the resulting coercion to cast one side of the heterogeneous equality. While sound, this led to terrible error messages. (See the bugs listed below.) The problem is that using the coercion built from the emitted kind equality is a bit like a wanted rewriting a wanted. The solution is to keep heterogeneous equalities as irreducible. See Note [Equalities with incompatible kinds] in TcCanonical. This commit also removes a highly suspicious switch to FM_SubstOnly when flattening in the kinds of a type variable. I have no idea why this was there, other than as a holdover from pre-TypeInType. I've not left a Note because there is simply no reason I can conceive of that the FM_SubstOnly should be there. One challenge with this patch is that the emitted derived equalities might get emitted several times: when a heterogeneous equality is in an implication and then gets floated out from the implication, the Derived is present both in and out of the implication. This causes a duplicate error message. (Test case: typecheck/should_fail/T7368) Solution: track the provenance of Derived constraints and refuse to float out a constraint that has an insoluble Derived. Lastly, this labels one test (dependent/should_fail/RAE_T32a) as expect_broken, because the problem is really #12919. The different handling of constraints in this patch exposes the error. This fixes bugs #11198, #12373, #13530, and #13610. test cases: typecheck/should_fail/{T8262,T8603,tcail122,T12373,T13530,T13610}
