This patch removes the use of `sdocWithDynFlags` from GHC.CmmToAsm.*.Ppr
To do that I've had to make some refactoring:
* X86' and PPC's `Instr` are no longer `Outputable` as they require a
`Platform` argument
* `Instruction` class now exposes `pprInstr :: Platform -> instr -> SDoc`
* as a consequence, I've refactored some modules to avoid .hs-boot files
* added (derived) functor instances for some datatypes parametric in the
instruction type. It's useful for pretty-printing as we just have to
map `pprInstr` before pretty-printing the container datatype.

Over the years the unit management code has been modified a lot to keep
up with changes in Cabal (e.g. support for several library components in
the same package), to integrate BackPack, etc. I found it very hard to
understand as the terminology wasn't consistent, was referring to past
concepts, etc.
The terminology is now explained as clearly as I could in the Note
"About Units" and the code is refactored to reflect it.
-------------------
Many names were misleading: UnitId is not an Id but could be a virtual
unit (an indefinite one instantiated on the fly), IndefUnitId
constructor may contain a definite instantiated unit, etc.
* Rename IndefUnitId into InstantiatedUnit
* Rename IndefModule into InstantiatedModule
* Rename UnitId type into Unit
* Rename IndefiniteUnitId constructor into VirtUnit
* Rename DefiniteUnitId constructor into RealUnit
* Rename packageConfigId into mkUnit
* Rename getPackageDetails into unsafeGetUnitInfo
* Rename InstalledUnitId into UnitId
Remove references to misleading ComponentId: a ComponentId is just an
indefinite unit-id to be instantiated.
* Rename ComponentId into IndefUnitId
* Rename ComponentDetails into UnitPprInfo
* Fix display of UnitPprInfo with empty version: this is now used for
units dynamically generated by BackPack
Generalize several types (Module, Unit, etc.) so that they can be used
with different unit identifier types: UnitKey, UnitId, Unit, etc.
* GenModule: Module, InstantiatedModule and InstalledModule are now
instances of this type
* Generalize DefUnitId, IndefUnitId, Unit, InstantiatedUnit,
PackageDatabase
Replace BackPack fake "hole" UnitId by a proper HoleUnit constructor.
Add basic support for UnitKey. They should be used more in the future to
avoid mixing them up with UnitId as we do now.
Add many comments.

* Remove `DynFlags` parameter from `isDynLinkName`: `isDynLinkName` used
to test the global `ExternalDynamicRefs` flag. Now we test it outside of
`isDynLinkName`
* Add new fields into `NCGConfig`: current unit id, sse/bmi versions,
externalDynamicRefs, etc.
* Replace many uses of `DynFlags` by `NCGConfig`
* Moved `BMI/SSE` datatypes into `GHC.Platform`

This patch disentangles a bit more DynFlags from the native code
generator (CmmToAsm).
In more details:
- add a new NCGConfig datatype in GHC.CmmToAsm.Config which contains the
configuration of a native code generation session
- explicitly pass NCGConfig/Platform arguments when necessary
- as a consequence `sdocWithPlatform` is gone and there are only a few
`sdocWithDynFlags` left
- remove the use of `unsafeGlobalDynFlags` from GHC.CmmToAsm.CFG
- remove `sdocDebugLevel` (now we pass the debug level via NCGConfig)
There are still some places where DynFlags is used, especially because
of pretty-printing (CLabel), because of Cmm helpers (such as
`cmmExprType`) and because of `Outputable` instance for the
instructions. These are left for future refactoring as this patch is
already big.

This patch removes all CafInfo predictions and various hacks to preserve
predicted CafInfos from the compiler and assigns final CafInfos to
interface Ids after code generation. SRT analysis is extended to support
static data, and Cmm generator is modified to allow generating
static_link fields after SRT analysis.
This also fixes `-fcatch-bottoms`, which introduces error calls in case
expressions in CorePrep, which runs *after* CoreTidy (which is where we
decide on CafInfos) and turns previously non-CAFFY things into CAFFY.
Fixes #17648
Fixes #9718

Manual inspection of programs in testsuite/tests/programs
---------------------------------------------------------
I built these programs with a bunch of dump flags and `-O` and compared
STG, Cmm, and Asm dumps and file sizes.
(Below the numbers in parenthesis show number of modules in the program)
These programs have identical compiler (same .hi and .o sizes, STG, and
Cmm and Asm dumps):
- Queens (1), andre_monad (1), cholewo-eval (2), cvh_unboxing (3),
andy_cherry (7), fun_insts (1), hs-boot (4), fast2haskell (2),
jl_defaults (1), jq_readsPrec (1), jules_xref (1), jtod_circint (4),
jules_xref2 (1), lennart_range (1), lex (1), life_space_leak (1),
bargon-mangler-bug (7), record_upd (1), rittri (1), sanders_array (1),
strict_anns (1), thurston-module-arith (2), okeefe_neural (1),
joao-circular (6), 10queens (1)
Programs with different compiler outputs:
- jl_defaults (1): For some reason GHC HEAD marks a lot of top-level
`[Int]` closures as CAFFY for no reason. With this patch we no longer
make them CAFFY and generate less SRT entries. For some reason Main.o
is slightly larger with this patch (1.3%) and the executable sizes are
the same. (I'd expect both to be smaller)
- launchbury (1): Same as jl_defaults: top-level `[Int]` closures marked
as CAFFY for no reason. Similarly `Main.o` is 1.4% larger but the
executable sizes are the same.
- galois_raytrace (13): Differences are in the Parse module. There are a
lot, but some of the changes are caused by the fact that for some
reason (I think a bug) GHC HEAD marks the dictionary for `Functor
Identity` as CAFFY. Parse.o is 0.4% larger, the executable size is the
same.
- north_array: We now generate less SRT entries because some of array
primops used in this program like `NewArrayOp` get eliminated during
Stg-to-Cmm and turn some CAFFY things into non-CAFFY. Main.o gets 24%
larger (9224 bytes from 9000 bytes), executable sizes are the same.
- seward-space-leak: Difference in this program is better shown by this
smaller example:
module Lib where
data CDS
= Case [CDS] [(Int, CDS)]
| Call CDS CDS
instance Eq CDS where
Case sels1 rets1 == Case sels2 rets2 =
sels1 == sels2 && rets1 == rets2
Call a1 b1 == Call a2 b2 =
a1 == a2 && b1 == b2
_ == _ =
False
In this program GHC HEAD builds a new SRT for the recursive group of
`(==)`, `(/=)` and the dictionary closure. Then `/=` points to `==`
in its SRT field, and `==` uses the SRT object as its SRT. With this
patch we use the closure for `/=` as the SRT and add `==` there. Then
`/=` gets an empty SRT field and `==` points to `/=` in its SRT
field.
This change looks fine to me.
Main.o gets 0.07% larger, executable sizes are identical.
head.hackage
------------
head.hackage's CI script builds 428 packages from Hackage using this
patch with no failures.
Compiler performance
--------------------
The compiler perf tests report that the compiler allocates slightly more
(worst case observed so far is 4%). However most programs in the test
suite are small, single file programs. To benchmark compiler performance
on something more realistic I build Cabal (the library, 236 modules)
with different optimisation levels. For the "max residency" row I run
GHC with `+RTS -s -A100k -i0 -h` for more accurate numbers. Other rows
are generated with just `-s`. (This is because `-i0` causes running GC
much more frequently and as a result "bytes copied" gets inflated by
more than 25x in some cases)

Extra compiler allocations
--------------------------
Runtime allocations of programs are as reported above (NoFib section).
The compiler now allocates more than before. Main source of allocation
in this patch compared to base commit is the new SRT algorithm
(GHC.Cmm.Info.Build). Below is some of the extra work we do with this
patch, numbers generated by profiled stage 2 compiler when building a
pathological case (the test 'ManyConstructors') with '-O2':
- We now sort the final STG for a module, which means traversing the
entire program, generating free variable set for each top-level
binding, doing SCC analysis, and re-ordering the program. In
ManyConstructors this step allocates 97,889,952 bytes.
- We now do SRT analysis on static data, which in a program like
ManyConstructors causes analysing 10,000 bindings that we would
previously just skip. This step allocates 70,898,352 bytes.
- We now maintain an SRT map for the entire module as we compile Cmm
groups:
data ModuleSRTInfo = ModuleSRTInfo
{ ...
, moduleSRTMap :: SRTMap
}
(SRTMap is just a strict Map from the 'containers' library)
This map gets an entry for most bindings in a module (exceptions are
THUNKs and CAFFY static functions). For ManyConstructors this map
gets 50015 entries.
- Once we're done with code generation we generate a NameSet from SRTMap
for the non-CAFFY names in the current module. This set gets the same
number of entries as the SRTMap.
- Finally we update CafInfos in ModDetails for the non-CAFFY Ids, using
the NameSet generated in the previous step. This usually does the
least amount of allocation among the work listed here.
Only place with this patch where we do less work in the CAF analysis in
the tidying pass (CoreTidy). However that doesn't save us much, as the
pass still needs to traverse the whole program and update IdInfos for
other reasons. Only thing we don't here do is the `hasCafRefs` pass over
the RHS of bindings, which is a stateless pass that returns a boolean
value, so it doesn't allocate much.

This is a unit test for the native code generator's register allocator;
naturally. the NCG is required.

Add StgToCmm module hierarchy. Platform modules that are used in several
other places (NCG, LLVM codegen, Cmm transformations) are put into
GHC.Platform.

Summary:
- Previously we would hvae a single big table of pointers per module,
with a set of bitmaps to reference entries within it. The new
representation is identical to a static constructor, which is much
simpler for the GC to traverse, and we get to remove the complicated
bitmap-traversal code from the GC.
- Rewrite all the code to generate SRTs in CmmBuildInfoTables, and
document it much better (see Note [SRTs]). This has been something
I've wanted to do since we moved to the new code generator, I
finally had the opportunity to finish it while on a transatlantic
flight recently :)
There are a series of 4 diffs:
1. D4632 (this one), which does the bulk of the changes
2. D4633 which adds support for smaller `CmmLabelDiffOff` constants
3. D4634 which takes advantage of D4632 and D4633 to save a word in
info tables that have an SRT on x86_64. This is where most of the
binary size improvement comes from.
4. D4637 which makes a further optimisation to merge some SRTs with
static FUN closures. This adds some complexity and the benefits
are fairly modest, so it's not clear yet whether we should do this.
Results (after (3), on x86_64)
- GHC itself (staticaly linked) is 5.2% smaller
- -1.7% binary sizes in nofib, -2.9% module sizes. Full nofib results: P176
- I measured the overhead of traversing all the static objects in a
major GC in GHC itself by doing `replicateM_ 1000 performGC` as the
first thing in `Main.main`. The new version was 5-10% faster, but
the results did vary quite a bit.
- I'm not sure if there's a compile-time difference, the results are
too unreliable.

As discussed in D1532, Trac Trac #11337, and Trac Trac #11338, the stack
unwinding information produced by GHC is currently quite approximate.
Essentially we assume that register values do not change at all within a
basic block. While this is somewhat true in normal Haskell code, blocks
containing foreign calls often break this assumption. This results in
unreliable call stacks, especially in the code containing foreign calls.
This is worse than it sounds as unreliable unwinding information can at
times result in segmentation faults.
This patch set attempts to improve this situation by tracking unwinding
information with finer granularity. By dispensing with the assumption of
one unwinding table per block, we allow the compiler to accurately
represent the areas surrounding foreign calls.
Towards this end we generalize the representation of unwind information
in the backend in three ways,
* Multiple CmmUnwind nodes can occur per block
* CmmUnwind nodes can now carry unwind information for multiple
registers (while not strictly necessary; this makes emitting
unwinding information a bit more convenient in the compiler)
* The NCG backend is given an opportunity to modify the unwinding
records since it may need to make adjustments due to, for instance,
native calling convention requirements for foreign calls (see
#11353).
This sets the stage for resolving #11337 and #11338.
