* Improve kind generalisation, error messagesSimon Peyton Jones2020-09-241-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Jones2020-06-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch simplifies GHC to use simple subsumption. 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.

* Fix TcSimplify.decideQuantification for kind variablesSimon Peyton Jones2017-03-101-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TcSimplify.decideQuantification was doing the Wrong Thing when "growing" the type variables to quantify over. We were trying to do this on a tyvar set where we'd split off the dependent type varaibles; and we just got it wrong. A kind variable wasn't being generalised properly, with confusing knock on consequences. All this led to Trac #13371 and Trac #13393. This commit tidies it all up: * The type TcDepVars is renamed as CandidateQTvs; and splitDepVarsOfType to candidateQTyVarsOfType * The code in TcSimplify.decideQuantification is simpler. It no longer does the tricky "grow" stuff over TcDepVars. Instead it use ordinary VarSets (thereby eliminating the nasty growThetaTyVarsDSet) and uses that to filter the result of candidateQTyVarsOfType. * I documented that candidateQTyVarsOfType returns the type variables in a good order in which to quantify, and rewrote it to use an accumulator pattern, so that we would predicatably get left-to-right ordering. In doing all this I also made UniqDFM behave a little more nicely: * When inserting an element that is there already, keep the old tag, while still overwriting with the new value. * This means that when doing udfmToList we get back elements in the order they were originally inserted, rather than in reverse order. It's not a big deal, but in a subsequent commit I use it to improve the order of type variables in inferred types. All this led to a lot of error message wibbles: - changing the order of quantified variables - changing the order in which instances are listed in GHCi - changing the tidying of variables in typechecker erors There's a submodule update for 'array' because one of its tests has an error-message change. I may not have associated all of them with the correct commit.
* A collection of type-inference refactorings.Simon Peyton Jones2016-10-211-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch does a raft of useful tidy-ups in the type checker. I've been meaning to do this for some time, and finally made time to do it en route to ICFP. 1. Modify TcType.ExpType to make a distinct data type, InferResult for the Infer case, and consequential refactoring. 2. Define a new function TcUnify.fillInferResult, to fill in an InferResult. It uses TcMType.promoteTcType to promote the type to the level of the InferResult. See TcMType Note [Promoting a type] This refactoring is in preparation for an improvement to typechecking pattern bindings, coming next. I flirted with an elaborate scheme to give better higher rank inference, but it was just too complicated. See TcMType Note [Promotion and higher rank types] 3. Add to InferResult a new field ir_inst :: Bool to say whether or not the type used to fill in the InferResult should be deeply instantiated. See TcUnify Note [Deep instantiation of InferResult]. 4. Add a TcLevel to SkolemTvs. This will be useful generally - it's a fast way to see if the type variable escapes when floating (not used yet) - it provides a good consistency check when updating a unification variable (TcMType.writeMetaTyVarRef, the level_check_ok check) I originally had another reason (related to the flirting in (2), but I left it in because it seems like a step in the right direction. 5. Reduce and simplify the plethora of uExpType, tcSubType and related functions in TcUnify. It was such an opaque mess and it's still not great, but it's better. 6. Simplify the uo_expected field of TypeEqOrigin. Richard had generatlised it to a ExpType, but it was almost always a Check type. Now it's back to being a plain TcType which is much, much easier. 7. Improve error messages by refraining from skolemisation when it's clear that there's an error: see TcUnify Note [Don't skolemise unnecessarily] 8. Type.isPiTy and isForAllTy seem to be missing a coreView check, so I added it 9. Kill off tcs_used_tcvs. Its purpose is to track the givens used by wanted constraints. For dictionaries etc we do that via the free vars of the /bindings/ in the implication constraint ic_binds. But for coercions we just do update-in-place in the type, rather than generating a binding. So we need something analogous to bindings, to track what coercions we have added. That was the purpose of tcs_used_tcvs. But it only worked for a /single/ iteration, whereas we may have multiple iterations of solving an implication. Look at (the old) 'setImplicationStatus'. If the constraint is unsolved, it just drops the used_tvs on the floor. If it becomes solved next time round, we'll pick up coercions used in that round, but ignore ones used in the first round. There was an outright bug. Result = (potentialy) bogus unused-constraint errors. Constructing a case where this actually happens seems quite trick so I did not do so. Solution: expand EvBindsVar to include the (free vars of the) coercions, so that the coercions are tracked in essentially the same way as the bindings. This turned out to be much simpler. Less code, more correct. 10. Make the ic_binds field in an implication have type ic_binds :: EvBindsVar instead of (as previously) ic_binds :: Maybe EvBindsVar This is notably simpler, and faster to use -- less testing of the Maybe. But in the occaional situation where we don't have anywhere to put the bindings, the belt-and-braces error check is lost. So I put it back as an ASSERT in 'setImplicationStatus' (see the use of 'termEvidenceAllowed') All these changes led to quite bit of error message wibbling
* Kill varSetElemsWellScoped in quantifyTyVarsBartosz Nitka2016-04-261-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | varSetElemsWellScoped introduces unnecessary non-determinism in inferred type signatures. Removing this instance required changing the representation of TcDepVars to use deterministic sets. This is the last occurence of varSetElemsWellScoped, allowing me to finally remove it. Test Plan: ./validate I will update the expected outputs when commiting, some reordering of type variables in types is expected.

* Refactor the typechecker to use ExpTypes.Richard Eisenberg2016-01-271-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea here is described in [wiki:Typechecker]. Briefly, this refactor keeps solid track of "synthesis" mode vs "checking" in GHC's bidirectional type-checking algorithm. When in synthesis mode, the expected type is just an IORef to write to. In addition, this patch does a significant reworking of RebindableSyntax, allowing much more freedom in the types of the rebindable operators. For example, we can now have `negate :: Int -> Bool` and `(>>=) :: m a -> (forall x. a x -> m b) -> m b`. The magic is in tcSyntaxOp. This addresses tickets #11397, #11452, and #11458.

* Visible type applicationRichard Eisenberg2015-12-241-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This re-working of the typechecker algorithm is based on the paper "Visible type application", by Richard Eisenberg, Stephanie Weirich, and Hamidhasan Ahmed, to be published at ESOP'16. This patch introduces -XTypeApplications, which allows users to say, for example `id @Int`, which has type `Int -> Int`. See the changes to the user manual for details. This patch addresses tickets #10619, #5296, #10589.
* Add kind equalities to GHC.Richard Eisenberg2015-12-111-14/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This puts the "Relevant bindings" section at the end. It uses a TcErrors.Report Monoid to divide messages by importance and then mappends them together. This is not the most efficient way since there are various intermediate Reports and list appends, but it probably doesn't matter since error messages shouldn't get that large, and are usually prepended. In practice, everything is `important` except `relevantBindings`, which is `supplementary`. ErrMsg's errMsgShortDoc and errMsgExtraInfo were extracted into ErrDoc, which has important, context, and suppelementary fields. Each of those three sections is marked with a bullet character, '•' on unicode terminals and '*' on ascii terminals. Since this breaks tons of tests, I also modified testlib.normalise_errmsg to strip out '•'s. --- Additional notes: To avoid prepending * to an empty doc, I needed to filter empty docs. This seemed less error-prone than trying to modify everyone who produces SDoc to instead produce Maybe SDoc. So I added `Outputable.isEmpty`. Unfortunately it needs a DynFlags, which is kind of bogus, but otherwise I think I'd need another Empty case for SDoc, and then it couldn't be a newtype any more. ErrMsg's errMsgShortString is only used by the Show instance, which is in turn only used by Show HscTypes.SourceError, which is in turn only needed for the Exception instance. So it's probably possible to get rid of errMsgShortString, but that would a be an unrelated cleanup. Fixes #11014.

* Wibbles to error messages, following the fix for Trac #7851Simon Peyton Jones2013-04-291-2/+0
| | | | | | | | In effect, the error context for naked variables now takes up a "slot" in the context stack; but it is often empty. So the context stack becomes one shorter in those cases. I don't think this matters; indeed, it's aguably an improvement. Anyway that's why so many tests are affected.
