* rts: Replace `nat` with `uint32_t`Erik de Castro Lopo2016-05-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Test Plan: Validated on Linux, OS X and Windows Reviewers: simonmar, austin, thomie, hvr, bgamari, hsyl20 Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D2166
* 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>

* Don't check for swept blocks in -DS.Marco TĂșlio Gontijo e Silva2010-07-181-0/+2
| | | | | | The checkHeap function assumed the allocated part of the block contained only alive objects and slops. This was not true for blocks that are collected using mark sweep. The code in this patch skip the test for this kind of blocks.
* GC refactoring, remove "steps"Simon Marlow2009-12-031-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* RTS tidyup sweep, first phaseSimon Marlow2009-08-021-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Add fast event loggingSimon Marlow2009-03-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Generate binary log files from the RTS containing a log of runtime events with timestamps. The log file can be visualised in various ways, for investigating runtime behaviour and debugging performance problems. See for example the forthcoming ThreadScope viewer. New GHC option: -eventlog (link-time option) Enables event logging. +RTS -l (runtime option) Generates <prog>.eventlog with the binary event information. This replaces some of the tracing machinery we already had in the RTS: e.g. +RTS -vg for GC tracing (we should do this using the new event logging instead). Event logging has almost no runtime cost when it isn't enabled, though in the future we might add more fine-grained events and this might change; hence having a link-time option and compiling a separate version of the RTS for event logging. There's a small runtime cost for enabling event-logging, for most programs it shouldn't make much difference. (Todo: docs)
