* Fix a few GCC warningsMichal Terepeta2018-05-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 8 now generates warnings for incompatible function pointer casts [-Werror=cast-function-type]. Apparently there are a few of those in rts code, which makes `./validate` unhappy (since we compile with `-Werror`) This commit tries to fix these issues by changing the functions to have the correct type (and, if necessary, moving the casts into those functions). For instance, hash/comparison function are declared (`Hash.h`) to take `StgWord` but we want to use `StgWord64[2]` in `StaticPtrTable.c`. Instead of casting the function pointers, we can cast the `StgWord` parameter to `StgWord*`. I think this should be ok since `StgWord` should be the same size as a pointer.

* Overhaul of Compact Regions (#12455)Simon Marlow2016-12-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: This commit makes various improvements and addresses some issues with Compact Regions (aka Compact Normal Forms). This was the most important thing I wanted to fix. Compaction previously prevented GC from running until it was complete, which would be a problem in a multicore setting. Now, we compact using a hand-written Cmm routine that can be interrupted at any point. When a GC is triggered during a sharing-enabled compaction, the GC has to traverse and update the hash table, so this hash table is now stored in the StgCompactNFData object. Previously, compaction consisted of a deepseq using the NFData class, followed by a traversal in C code to copy the data. This is now done in a single pass with hand-written Cmm (see rts/Compact.cmm). We no longer use the NFData instances, instead the Cmm routine evaluates components directly as it compacts. The new compaction is about 50% faster than the old one with no sharing, and a little faster on average with sharing (the cost of the hash table dominates when we're doing sharing). Static objects that don't (transitively) refer to any CAFs don't need to be copied into the compact region. In particular this means we often avoid copying Char values and small Int values, because these are static closures in the runtime. Each Compact# object can support a single compactAdd# operation at any given time, so the Data.Compact library now enforces mutual exclusion using an MVar stored in the Compact object. We now get exceptions rather than killing everything with a barf() when we encounter an object that cannot be compacted (a function, or a mutable object). We now also detect pinned objects, which can't be compacted either. The Data.Compact API has been refactored and cleaned up. A new compactSize operation returns the size (in bytes) of the compact object. Most of the documentation is in the Haddock docs for the compact library, which I've expanded and improved here. Various comments in the code have been improved, especially the main Note [Compact Normal Forms] in rts/sm/CNF.c. I've added a few tests, and expanded a few of the tests that were there. We now also run the tests with GHCi, and in a new test way that enables sanity checking (+RTS -DS). There's a benchmark in libraries/compact/tests/compact_bench.hs for measuring compaction speed and comparing sharing vs. no sharing. The field totalDataW in StgCompactNFData was unnecessary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In addition to more const-correctness fixes this patch fixes an infelicity of the previous const-correctness patch (995cf0f356) which left `UNTAG_CLOSURE` taking a `const StgClosure` pointer parameter but returning a non-const pointer. Here we restore the original type signature of `UNTAG_CLOSURE` and add a new function `UNTAG_CONST_CLOSURE` which takes and returns a const `StgClosure` pointer and uses that wherever possible.

* Implement -XStaticValuesFacundo Domínguez2014-12-091-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: As proposed in [1], this extension introduces a new syntactic form `static e`, where `e :: a` can be any closed expression. The static form produces a value of type `StaticPtr a`, which works as a reference that programs can "dereference" to get the value of `e` back. References are like `Ptr`s, except that they are stable across invocations of a program. The relevant wiki pages are [2, 3], which describe the motivation/ideas and implementation plan respectively.

* Declare RTS-private prototypes with __attribute__((visibility("hidden")))Simon Marlow2009-08-051-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | This has no effect with static libraries, but when the RTS is in a shared library it does two things: - it prevents the function from being exposed by the shared library - internal calls to the function can use the faster non-PLT calls, because the function cannot be overriden at link time.
* Move file locking into the RTS, fixing #629, #1109Simon Marlow2007-11-201-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | File locking (of the Haskell 98 variety) was previously done using a static table with linear search, which had two problems: the array had a fixed size and was sometimes too small (#1109), and performance of lockFile/unlockFile was suboptimal due to the linear search. Also the algorithm failed to count readers as required by Haskell 98 (#629). Now it's done using a hash table (provided by the RTS). Furthermore I avoided the extra fstat() for every open file by passing the dev_t and ino_t into lockFile. This and the improvements to the locking algorithm result in a healthy 20% or so performance increase for opening/closing files (see openFile008 test).

* Reorganisation of the source treeSimon Marlow2006-04-071-0/+40
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.
