* Implement a sanity check for CCS fields in profiling buildsÖmer Sinan Ağacan2019-01-101-0/+13
| | | | | This helped me debug one of the bugs in #15508. I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it worked for me, so wanted to submit this as a MR.
* rts: Replace `nat` with `uint32_t`Erik de Castro Lopo2016-05-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | The `nat` type was an alias for `unsigned int` with a comment saying it was at least 32 bits. We keep the typedef in case client code is using it but mark it as deprecated.

* Revert "rts: add Emacs 'Local Variables' to every .c file"Simon Marlow2014-09-291-8/+0

* rts: add Emacs 'Local Variables' to every .c fileAustin Seipp2014-07-281-0/+8
| | | | | | | | This will hopefully help ensure some basic consistency in the forward by overriding buffer variables. In particular, it sets the wrap length, the offset to 4, and turns off tabs. Signed-off-by: Austin Seipp <austin@well-typed.com>

* Deprecate lnat, and use StgWord insteadSimon Marlow2012-09-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | lnat was originally "long unsigned int" but we were using it when we wanted a 64-bit type on a 64-bit machine. This broke on Windows x64, where long == int == 32 bits. Using types of unspecified size is bad, but what we really wanted was a type with N bits on an N-bit machine. StgWord is exactly that. lnat was mentioned in some APIs that clients might be using (e.g. StackOverflowHook()), so we leave it defined but with a comment to say that it's deprecated.
* A small GC optimisationSimon Marlow2011-02-021-1/+1
| | | | | | Store the *number* of the destination generation in the Bdescr struct, so that in evacuate() we don't have to deref gen to get it. This is another improvement ported over from my GC branch.
* GC refactoring, remove "steps"Simon Marlow2009-12-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GC had a two-level structure, G generations each of T steps. Steps are for aging within a generation, mostly to avoid premature promotion. Measurements show that more than 2 steps is almost never worthwhile, and 1 step is usually worse than 2. In theory fractional steps are possible, so the ideal number of steps is somewhere between 1 and 3. GHC's default has always been 2. We can implement 2 steps quite straightforwardly by having each block point to the generation to which objects in that block should be promoted, so blocks in the nursery point to generation 0, and blocks in gen 0 point to gen 1, and so on. This commit removes the explicit step structures, merging generations with steps, thus simplifying a lot of code. Performance is unaffected. The tunable number of steps is now gone, although it may be replaced in the future by a way to tune the aging in generation 0.
* Store a destination step in the block descriptorSimon Marlow2009-11-291-0/+1
| | | | | | | At the moment, this just saves a memory reference in the GC inner loop (worth a percent or two of GC time). Later, it will hopefully let me experiment with partial steps, and simplifying the generation/step infrastructure.
* RTS tidyup sweep, first phaseSimon Marlow2009-08-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first phase of this tidyup is focussed on the header files, and in particular making sure we are exposinng publicly exactly what we need to, and no more. - Rts.h now includes everything that the RTS exposes publicly, rather than a random subset of it. - Most of the public header files have moved into subdirectories, and many of them have been renamed. But clients should not need to include any of the other headers directly, just #include the main public headers: Rts.h, HsFFI.h, RtsAPI.h. - All the headers needed for via-C compilation have moved into the stg subdirectory, which is self-contained. Most of the headers for the rest of the RTS APIs have moved into the rts subdirectory. - I left MachDeps.h where it is, because it is so widely used in Haskell code. - I left a deprecated stub for RtsFlags.h in place. The flag structures are now exposed by Rts.h. - Various internal APIs are no longer exposed by public header files. - Various bits of dead code and declarations have been removed - More gcc warnings are turned on, and the RTS code is more warning-clean. - More source files #include "PosixSource.h", and hence only use standard POSIX (1003.1c-1995) interfaces. There is a lot more tidying up still to do, this is just the first pass. I also intend to standardise the names for external RTS APIs (e.g use the rts_ prefix consistently), and declare the internal APIs as hidden for shared libraries.
* Basic heap profile support without -profSimon Marlow2007-04-271-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that constructor info tables contain the name of the constructor, we can generate useful heap profiles without requiring the whole program and libraries to be compiled with -prof. So now, "+RTS -hT" generates a heap profile for any program, dividing the profile by constructor. It wouldn't be hard to add support for grouping constructors by module, or to restrict the profile to certain constructors/modules/packages. This means that for the first time we can get heap profiles for GHCi, which was previously impossible because the byte-code interpreter and linker don't work with -prof.
* Split GC.c, and move storage manager into sm/ directorySimon Marlow2006-10-241-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In preparation for parallel GC, split up the monolithic GC.c file into smaller parts. Also in this patch (and difficult to separate, unfortunatley): - Don't include Stable.h in Rts.h, instead just include it where necessary. - consistently use STATIC_INLINE in source files, and INLINE_HEADER in header files. STATIC_INLINE is now turned off when DEBUG is on, to make debugging easier. - The GC no longer takes the get_roots function as an argument. We weren't making use of this generalisation.
* Reorganisation of the source treeSimon Marlow2006-04-071-0/+120
Most of the other users of the fptools build system have migrated to Cabal, and with the move to darcs we can now flatten the source tree without losing history, so here goes. The main change is that the ghc/ subdir is gone, and most of what it contained is now at the top level. The build system now makes no pretense at being multi-project, it is just the GHC build system. No doubt this will break many things, and there will be a period of instability while we fix the dependencies. A straightforward build should work, but I haven't yet fixed binary/source distributions. Changes to the Building Guide will follow, too.
