* Improve kind generalisation, error messagesSimon Peyton Jones2020-09-241-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch does two things: * It refactors GHC.Tc.Errors a bit. In debugging Quick Look I was forced to look in detail at error messages, and ended up doing a bit of refactoring, esp in mkTyVarEqErr'. It's still quite a mess, but a bit better, I think. * It makes a significant improvement to the kind checking of type and class declarations. Specifically, we now ensure that if kind checking fails with an unsolved constraint, all the skolems are in scope. That wasn't the case before, which led to some obscure error messages; and occasional failures with "no skolem info" (eg #16245). Both of these, and the main Quick Look patch itself, affect a /lot/ of error messages, as you can see from the number of files changed. I've checked them all; I think they are as good or better than before. Smaller things * I documented the various instances of VarBndr better. See Note [The VarBndr tyep and its uses] in GHC.Types.Var * Renamed GHC.Tc.Solver.simpl_top to simplifyTopWanteds * A bit of refactoring in bindExplicitTKTele, to avoid the footwork with Either. Simpler now. * Move promoteTyVar from GHC.Tc.Solver to GHC.Tc.Utils.TcMType Fixes #16245 (comment 211369), memorialised as typecheck/polykinds/T16245a Also fixes the three bugs in #18640
* Simple subsumptionwip/T17775Simon Peyton Jones2020-06-051-4/+6

Ticket #17775 Implements GHC proposal #287 https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/ proposals/0287-simplify-subsumption.rst All the motivation is described there; I will not repeat it here. The implementation payload: * tcSubType and friends become noticably simpler, because it no longer uses eta-expansion when checking subsumption. * No deeplyInstantiate or deeplySkolemise That in turn means that some tests fail, by design; they can all be fixed by eta expansion. There is a list of such changes below. Implementing the patch led me into a variety of sticky corners, so the patch includes several othe changes, some quite significant: * I made String wired-in, so that "foo" :: String rather than "foo" :: [Char] This improves error messages, and fixes #15679 * The pattern match checker relies on knowing about in-scope equality constraints, andd adds them to the desugarer's environment using addTyCsDs. But the co_fn in a FunBind was missed, and for some reason simple-subsumption ends up with dictionaries there. So I added a call to addTyCsDs. This is really part of #18049. * I moved the ic_telescope field out of Implication and into ForAllSkol instead. This is a nice win; just expresses the code much better. * There was a bug in GHC.Tc.TyCl.Instance.tcDataFamInstHeader. We called checkDataKindSig inside tc_kind_sig, /before/ solveEqualities and zonking. Obviously wrong, easily fixed. * solveLocalEqualitiesX: there was a whole mess in here, around failing fast enough. I discovered a bad latent bug where we could successfully kind-check a type signature, and use it, but have unsolved constraints that could fill in coercion holes in that signature -- aargh. It's all explained in Note [Failure in local type signatures] in GHC.Tc.Solver. Much better now. * I fixed a serious bug in anonymous type holes. IN f :: Int -> (forall a. a -> _) -> Int that "_" should be a unification variable at the /outer/ level; it cannot be instantiated to 'a'. This was plain wrong. New fields mode_lvl and mode_holes in TcTyMode, and auxiliary data type GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType.HoleMode. This fixes #16292, but makes no progress towards the more ambitious #16082 * I got sucked into an enormous refactoring of the reporting of equality errors in GHC.Tc.Errors, especially in mkEqErr1 mkTyVarEqErr misMatchMsg misMatchMsgOrCND In particular, the very tricky mkExpectedActualMsg function is gone. It took me a full day. But the result is far easier to understand. (Still not easy!) This led to various minor improvements in error output, and an enormous number of test-case error wibbles. One particular point: for occurs-check errors I now just say Can't match 'a' against '[a]' rather than using the intimidating language of "occurs check". * Pretty-printing AbsBinds Tests review * Eta expansions T11305: one eta expansion T12082: one eta expansion (undefined) T13585a: one eta expansion T3102: one eta expansion T3692: two eta expansions (tricky) T2239: two eta expansions T16473: one eta determ004: two eta expansions (undefined) annfail06: two eta (undefined) T17923: four eta expansions (a strange program indeed!) tcrun035: one eta expansion * Ambiguity check at higher rank. Now that we have simple subsumption, a type like f :: (forall a. Eq a => Int) -> Int is no longer ambiguous, because we could write g :: (forall a. Eq a => Int) -> Int g = f and it'd typecheck just fine. But f's type is a bit suspicious, and we might want to consider making the ambiguity check do a check on each sub-term. Meanwhile, these tests are accepted, whereas they were previously rejected as ambiguous: T7220a T15438 T10503 T9222 * Some more interesting error message wibbles T13381: Fine: one error (Int ~ Exp Int) rather than two (Int ~ Exp Int, Exp Int ~ Int) T9834: Small change in error (improvement) T10619: Improved T2414: Small change, due to order of unification, fine T2534: A very simple case in which a change of unification order means we get tow unsolved constraints instead of one tc211: bizarre impredicative tests; just accept this for now Updates Cabal and haddock submodules. Metric Increase: T12150 T12234 T5837 haddock.base Metric Decrease: haddock.compiler haddock.Cabal haddock.base Merge note: This appears to break the `UnliftedNewtypesDifficultUnification` test. It has been marked as broken in the interest of merging. (cherry picked from commit 66b7b195cb3dce93ed5078b80bf568efae904cc5)
* Add HsSyn prettyprinter testsAlan Zimmerman2016-12-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Add prettyprinter tests, which take a file, parse it, pretty print it, re-parse the pretty printed version and then compare the original and new ASTs (ignoring locations) Updates haddock submodule to match the AST changes. There are three issues outstanding 1. Extra parens around a context are not reproduced. This will require an AST change and will be done in a separate patch. 2. Currently if an `HsTickPragma` is found, this is not pretty-printed, to prevent noise in the output. I am not sure what the desired behaviour in this case is, so have left it as before. Test Ppr047 is marked as expected fail for this. 3. Apart from in a context, the ParsedSource AST keeps all the parens from the original source. Something is happening in the renamer to remove the parens around visible type application, causing T12530 to fail, as the dumped splice decl is after the renamer. This needs to be fixed by keeping the parens, but I do not know where they are being removed. I have amended the test to pass, by removing the parens in the expected output.

* Add kind equalities to GHC.Richard Eisenberg2015-12-111-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements the ideas originally put forward in "System FC with Explicit Kind Equality" (ICFP'13). There are several noteworthy changes with this patch: * We now have casts in types. These change the kind of a type. See new constructor `CastTy`. * All types and all constructors can be promoted. This includes GADT constructors. GADT pattern matches take place in type family equations. In Core, types can now be applied to coercions via the `CoercionTy` constructor. * Coercions can now be heterogeneous, relating types of different kinds. A coercion proving `t1 :: k1 ~ t2 :: k2` proves both that `t1` and `t2` are the same and also that `k1` and `k2` are the same. * The `Coercion` type has been significantly enhanced. The documentation in `docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf` reflects the new reality. * The type of `*` is now `*`. No more `BOX`. * Users can write explicit kind variables in their code, anywhere they can write type variables. For backward compatibility, automatic inference of kind-variable binding is still permitted. * The new extension `TypeInType` turns on the new user-facing features. * Type families and synonyms are now promoted to kinds. This causes trouble with parsing `*`, leading to the somewhat awkward new `HsAppsTy` constructor for `HsType`. This is dispatched with in the renamer, where the kind `*` can be told apart from a type-level multiplication operator. Without `-XTypeInType` the old behavior persists. With `-XTypeInType`, you need to import `Data.Kind` to get `*`, also known as `Type`. * The kind-checking algorithms in TcHsType have been significantly rewritten to allow for enhanced kinds. * The new features are still quite experimental and may be in flux. * TODO: Several open tickets: #11195, #11196, #11197, #11198, #11203. * TODO: Update user manual. Tickets addressed: #9017, #9173, #7961, #10524, #8566, #11142. Updates Haddock submodule.
* Use U+2018 instead of U+201B quote mark in compiler messagesHerbert Valerio Riedel2014-02-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | This matches GCC's choice of Unicode quotation marks (i.e. U+2018 and U+2019) and therefore looks more familiar on the console. This addresses #2507. Signed-off-by: Herbert Valerio Riedel <hvr@gnu.org>
