* testsuite: introduce 'static_stats' testsAlp Mestanogullari2019-05-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | They are a particular type of perf tests. This patch introduces a 'stats_files_dir' configuration field in the testsuite driver where all haddock timing files (and possibly others in the future) are assumed to live. We also change both the Make and Hadrian build systems to pass respectively $(TOP)/testsuite/tests/perf/haddock/ and <build root>/stage1/haddock-timing-files/ as the value of that new configuration field, and to generate the timing files in those directories in the first place while generating documentation with haddock. This new test type can be seen as one dedicated to examining stats files that are generated while building a GHC distribution. This also lets us get rid of the 'extra_files' directives in the all.T entries for haddock.base, haddock.Cabal and haddock.compiler.
* Lowercase windows importsMoritz Angermann2019-05-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | While windows and macOS are currently on case-insensitive file systems, this poses no issue on those. When cross compiling from linux with a case sensitive file system and mingw providing only lowercase headers, this in fact produces an issue. As such we just lowercase the import headers, which should still work fine on a case insensitive file system and also enable mingw's headers to be usable porperly.

* Rip out object splittingBen Gamari2019-03-054-92/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The splitter is an evil Perl script that processes assembler code. Its job can be done better by the linker's --gc-sections flag.

* make: Silence some xelatex outputBen Gamari2019-01-061-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | Currently build logs from GitLab CI around around 7 megabytes each. Of this, around 2 megabytes is latex output. This is quite silly as essentially all of this output is unresolved references in the early latex iterations. Here we silence this output. However, to make sure that we don't silence errors we allow each xelatex invocation besides the last to fail.

* Add gen-dll as replacement for dll-splitTamar Christina2017-08-291-14/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: This tool can be used to generate dll's for any list of object files given to it. It will then repartition them automatically to fit within a dll and generates as many dll's as needed to do this. Cyclic dependencies between these generated dlls are handle automatically so there is no need to tell it how to partition. It is also a lot more general than `dll-split` as it is able to split any package not just `libGHC`. It also uses a trick using GNU style import libraries to hide the splitting from the rest of the pipeline. Which means come linking time you don't need to know which dll contains what symbol or how many split dlls were created. The import libraries are by default created with libtool. However since libtool is BFD based it is very slow. So if present and detected by configure the `genlib` tool from the msys2 project is used. This makes a difference of about ~45 minutes when compiling. To install `genlib` run `pacman -Sy mingw-w64-$(uname -m)-tools-git`.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes dll-split from the code base, the reason is dll-split no longer makes any sense. It was designed to split a dll in two, but we now already have many more symbols than would fit inside two dlls. So we need a third one. This means there's no point in having to maintain this list as it'll never work anyway and the solution isn't scalable.

* Enable building Cabal with parsecHerbert Valerio Riedel2017-08-011-0/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cabal's parser has been rewritten in terms of Parsec (which is not enabled yet in Cabal-2.0 by default, but can be enabled by a cabal flag). The plan for Cabal is to drop support for the non-parsec parser, so we need to prepare GHC to cope with new situation. However, this means that lib:Cabal requires three new library dependency submodules, - parsec - text - mtl What complicates matters is that we need to build `ghc-cabal` early on during the bootstrap phase which currently needs to invoke `ghc --make` directly. So these additional dependencies need to be integrated into the monolithic `ghc --make` invocation which produces the `ghc-cabal` executable.

This also corrects section namings and uses the platform convention of `$` instead of `.` to separate sections. Implementation is based on @awson's patches to binutils. Binutils requires some extra help when compiling the libraries for GHCi usage. We drop the `-T` and use implicit scripts to amend the linker scripts instead of replacing it.

The basic idea is to have Autoconf's CC/CFLAG/CPPFLAG apply to stage{1,2,3}, while having a separate _STAGE0 set of env-vars denote the bootstrap-toolchain flags/programs. This should be simpler, less confusing, and somewhat more in line with Autoconf's idioms (allowing us to reuse more of Autoconf rather than (re)inventing our own confusing non-standard m4 macros to do stuff that Autoconf could almost do already for us) Morever, expose CC_STAGE0 as a so-called "precious" variable. So now we can better control which bootstrapping gcc is used (by default the one used by the stage0 ghc, unless CC_STAGE0 is overriden) ``` Some influential environment variables: CC_STAGE0 C compiler command (bootstrap) CC C compiler command CFLAGS C compiler flags ... Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations. ``` Test Plan: I've tested that cross-compiling with `--target=powerpc-linux-gnu` still works, and tried a few variants of settting `CC=` and `CC_STAGE0=`; `./validate` passed as well Reviewers: erikd, austin, bgamari, simonmar Reviewed By: simonmar Subscribers: Phyx, thomie Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D2078

* Switch from -this-package-key to -this-unit-id.Edward Z. Yang2016-01-191-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A small cosmetic change, but we have to do a bit of work to actually support it: - Cabal submodule update, so that Cabal passes us -this-unit-id when we ask for it. This includes a Cabal renaming to be consistent with Unit ID, which makes ghc-pkg a bit more scrutable. - Build system is updated to use -this-unit-id rather than -this-package-key, to avoid deprecation warnings. Needs a version test so I resurrected the old test we had (sorry rwbarton!) - I've *undeprecated* -package-name, so that we are in the same state as GHC 7.10, since the "correct" flag will have only entered circulation in GHC 8.0. - I removed -package-key. Since we didn't deprecate -package-id I think this should not cause any problems for users; they can just change their code to use -package-id. - The package database is indexed by UNIT IDs, not component IDs. I updated the naming here. - I dropped the signatures field from ExposedModule; nothing was using it, and instantiatedWith from the package database field. - ghc-pkg was updated to use unit ID nomenclature, I removed the -package-key flags but I decided not to add any new flags for now.

* Enable stack traces with ghci -fexternal-interpreter -profSimon Marlow2016-01-081-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: The main goal here is enable stack traces in GHCi. After this change, if you start GHCi like this: ghci -fexternal-interpreter -prof (which requires packages to be built for profiling, but not GHC itself) then the interpreter manages cost-centre stacks during execution and can produce a stack trace on request. Call locations are available for all interpreted code, and any compiled code that was built with the `-fprof-auto` familiy of flags. There are a couple of ways to get a stack trace: * `error`/`undefined` automatically get one attached * `Debug.Trace.traceStack` can be used anywhere, and prints the current stack Because the interpreter is running in a separate process, only the interpreted code is running in profiled mode and the compiler itself isn't slowed down by profiling. The GHCi debugger still doesn't work with -fexternal-interpreter, although this patch gets it a step closer. Most of the functionality of breakpoints is implemented, but the runtime value introspection is still not supported. Along the way I also did some refactoring and added type arguments to the various remote pointer types in `GHCi.RemotePtr`, so there's better type safety and documentation in the bridge code between GHC and ghc-iserv.
