* Use HsOuterExplicit in instance sigs in deriving-generated codeRyan Scott2020-12-181-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Issue #18914 revealed that `GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving` would generate code that mentions unbound type variables, which is dangerously fragile. The problem (and fix) is described in the new `Wrinkle: Use HsOuterExplicit` in `Note [GND and QuantifiedConstraints]`. The gist of it: make sure to put the top-level `forall`s in `deriving`-generated instance signatures in an `HsOuterExplicit` to ensure that they scope over the bodies of methods correctly. A side effect of this process is that it will expand any type synonyms in the instance signature, which will surface any `forall`s that are hidden underneath type synonyms (such as in the test case for #18914). While I was in town, I also performed some maintenance on `NewHsTypeX`, which powers `GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving`: * I renamed `NewHsTypeX` to `HsCoreTy`, which more accurately describes its intended purpose (#15706). I also made `HsCoreTy` a type synonym instead of a newtype, as making it a distinct data type wasn't buying us much. * To make sure that mistakes similar to #18914 do not occur later, I added an additional validity check when renaming `HsCoreTy`s that complains if an `HsCoreTy`s contains an out-of-scope type variable. See the new `Note [Renaming HsCoreTys]` in `GHC.Rename.HsType` for the details. Fixes #15706. Fixes #18914. Bumps the `haddock` submodule.

* Optimise nullary type constructor usagewip/tyconapp-optsBen Gamari2020-12-141-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During the compilation of programs GHC very frequently deals with the `Type` type, which is a synonym of `TYPE 'LiftedRep`. This patch teaches GHC to avoid expanding the `Type` synonym (and other nullary type synonyms) during type comparisons, saving a good amount of work. This optimisation is described in `Note [Comparing nullary type synonyms]`. To maximize the impact of this optimisation, we introduce a few special-cases to reduce `TYPE 'LiftedRep` to `Type`. See `Note [Prefer Type over TYPE 'LiftedPtrRep]`. Closes #17958. Metric Decrease: T18698b T1969 T12227 T12545 T12707 T14683 T3064 T5631 T5642 T9020 T9630 T9872a T13035 haddock.Cabal haddock.base
* Optimize dumping of consecutive whitespace.wip/andreask/opt_dumpsAndreas Klebinger2020-12-141-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The naive way of putting out n characters of indent would be something like `hPutStr hdl (replicate n ' ')`. However this is quite inefficient as we allocate an absurd number of strings consisting of simply spaces as we don't cache them. To improve on this we now track if we can simply write ascii spaces via hPutBuf instead. This is the case when running with -ddump-to-file where we force the encoding to be UTF8. This avoids both the cost of going through encoding as well as avoiding allocation churn from all the white space. Instead we simply use hPutBuf on a preallocated unlifted string. When dumping stg like this: > nofib/spectral/simple/Main.hs -fforce-recomp -ddump-stg-final -ddump-to-file -c +RTS -s Allocations went from 1,778 MB to 1,702MB. About a 4% reduction of allocation! I did not measure the difference in runtime but expect it to be similar. Bumps the haddock submodule since the interface of GHC's Pretty slightly changed. ------------------------- Metric Decrease: T12227 -------------------------
* Move Unit related fields from DynFlags to HscEnvSylvain Henry2020-12-141-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The unit database cache, the home unit and the unit state were stored in DynFlags while they ought to be stored in the compiler session state (HscEnv). This patch fixes this. It introduces a new UnitEnv type that should be used in the future to handle separate unit environments (especially host vs target units).

* Implement type applications in patternsCale Gibbard2020-12-141-0/+0
| | | | | The haddock submodule is also updated so that it understands the changes to patterns.
* Remove flattening variablesRichard Eisenberg2020-12-011-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch redesigns the flattener to simplify type family applications directly instead of using flattening meta-variables and skolems. The key new innovation is the CanEqLHS type and the new CEqCan constraint (Ct). A CanEqLHS is either a type variable or exactly-saturated type family application; either can now be rewritten using a CEqCan constraint in the inert set. Because the flattener no longer reduces all type family applications to variables, there was some performance degradation if a lengthy type family application is now flattened over and over (not making progress). To compensate, this patch contains some extra optimizations in the flattener, leading to a number of performance improvements. Close #18875. Close #18910. There are many extra parts of the compiler that had to be affected in writing this patch: * The family-application cache (formerly the flat-cache) sometimes stores coercions built from Given inerts. When these inerts get kicked out, we must kick out from the cache as well. (This was, I believe, true previously, but somehow never caused trouble.) Kicking out from the cache requires adding a filterTM function to TrieMap. * This patch obviates the need to distinguish "blocking" coercion holes from non-blocking ones (which, previously, arose from CFunEqCans). There is thus some simplification around coercion holes. * Extra commentary throughout parts of the code I read through, to preserve the knowledge I gained while working. * A change in the pure unifier around unifying skolems with other types. Unifying a skolem now leads to SurelyApart, not MaybeApart, as documented in Note [Binding when looking up instances] in GHC.Core.InstEnv. * Some more use of MCoercion where appropriate. * Previously, class-instance lookup automatically noticed that e.g. C Int was a "unifier" to a target [W] C (F Bool), because the F Bool was flattened to a variable. Now, a little more care must be taken around checking for unifying instances. * Previously, tcSplitTyConApp_maybe would split (Eq a => a). This is silly, because (=>) is not a tycon in Haskell. Fixed now, but there are some knock-on changes in e.g. TrieMap code and in the canonicaliser. * New function anyFreeVarsOf{Type,Co} to check whether a free variable satisfies a certain predicate. * Type synonyms now remember whether or not they are "forgetful"; a forgetful synonym drops at least one argument. This is useful when flattening; see flattenView. * The pattern-match completeness checker invokes the solver. This invocation might need to look through newtypes when checking representational equality. Thus, the desugarer needs to keep track of the in-scope variables to know what newtype constructors are in scope. I bet this bug was around before but never noticed. * Extra-constraints wildcards are no longer simplified before printing. See Note [Do not simplify ConstraintHoles] in GHC.Tc.Solver. * Whether or not there are Given equalities has become slightly subtler. See the new HasGivenEqs datatype. * Note [Type variable cycles in Givens] in GHC.Tc.Solver.Canonical explains a significant new wrinkle in the new approach. * See Note [What might match later?] in GHC.Tc.Solver.Interact, which explains the fix to #18910. * The inert_count field of InertCans wasn't actually used, so I removed it. Though I (Richard) did the implementation, Simon PJ was very involved in design and review. This updates the Haddock submodule to avoid #18932 by adding a type signature. ------------------------- Metric Decrease: T12227 T5030 T9872a T9872b T9872c Metric Increase: T9872d -------------------------
* [Sized Cmm] properly retain sizes.Moritz Angermann2020-11-261-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces all Word<N> = W<N># Word# and Int<N> = I<N># Int# with Word<N> = W<N># Word<N># and Int<N> = I<N># Int<N>#, thus providing us with properly sized primitives in the codegenerator instead of pretending they are all full machine words. This came up when implementing darwinpcs for arm64. The darwinpcs reqires us to pack function argugments in excess of registers on the stack. While most procedure call standards (pcs) assume arguments are just passed in 8 byte slots; and thus the caller does not know the exact signature to make the call, darwinpcs requires us to adhere to the prototype, and thus have the correct sizes. If we specify CInt in the FFI call, it should correspond to the C int, and not just be Word sized, when it's only half the size. This does change the expected output of T16402 but the new result is no less correct as it eliminates the narrowing (instead of the `and` as was previously done). Bumps the array, bytestring, text, and binary submodules. Co-Authored-By: Ben Gamari <ben@well-typed.com> Metric Increase: T13701 T14697

* Use tcSplitForAllInvisTyVars (not tcSplitForAllTyVars) in more placesRyan Scott2020-11-151-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The use of `tcSplitForAllTyVars` in `tcDataFamInstHeader` was the immediate cause of #18939, and replacing it with a new `tcSplitForAllInvisTyVars` function (which behaves like `tcSplitForAllTyVars` but only splits invisible type variables) fixes the issue. However, this led me to realize that _most_ uses of `tcSplitForAllTyVars` in GHC really ought to be `tcSplitForAllInvisTyVars` instead. While I was in town, I opted to replace most uses of `tcSplitForAllTys` with `tcSplitForAllTysInvis` to reduce the likelihood of such bugs in the future. I say "most uses" above since there is one notable place where we _do_ want to use `tcSplitForAllTyVars`: in `GHC.Tc.Validity.forAllTyErr`, which produces the "`Illegal polymorphic type`" error message if you try to use a higher-rank `forall` without having `RankNTypes` enabled. Here, we really do want to split all `forall`s, not just invisible ones, or we run the risk of giving an inaccurate error message in the newly added `T18939_Fail` test case. I debated at some length whether I wanted to name the new function `tcSplitForAllInvisTyVars` or `tcSplitForAllTyVarsInvisible`, but in the end, I decided that I liked the former better. For consistency's sake, I opted to rename the existing `splitPiTysInvisible` and `splitPiTysInvisibleN` functions to `splitInvisPiTys` and `splitPiTysInvisN`, respectively, so that they use the same naming convention. As a consequence, this ended up requiring a `haddock` submodule bump. Fixes #18939.

* | Replace HsImplicitBndrs with HsOuterTyVarBndrsRyan Scott2020-11-061-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This refactors the GHC AST to remove `HsImplicitBndrs` and replace it with `HsOuterTyVarBndrs`, a type which records whether the outermost quantification in a type is explicit (i.e., with an outermost, invisible `forall`) or implicit. As a result of this refactoring, it is now evident in the AST where the `forall`-or-nothing rule applies: it's all the places that use `HsOuterTyVarBndrs`. See the revamped `Note [forall-or-nothing rule]` in `GHC.Hs.Type` (previously in `GHC.Rename.HsType`). Moreover, the places where `ScopedTypeVariables` brings lexically scoped type variables into scope are a subset of the places that adhere to the `forall`-or-nothing rule, so this also makes places that interact with `ScopedTypeVariables` easier to find. See the revamped `Note [Lexically scoped type variables]` in `GHC.Hs.Type` (previously in `GHC.Tc.Gen.Sig`). `HsOuterTyVarBndrs` are used in type signatures (see `HsOuterSigTyVarBndrs`) and type family equations (see `HsOuterFamEqnTyVarBndrs`). The main difference between the former and the latter is that the former cares about specificity but the latter does not. There are a number of knock-on consequences: * There is now a dedicated `HsSigType` type, which is the combination of `HsOuterSigTyVarBndrs` and `HsType`. `LHsSigType` is now an alias for an `XRec` of `HsSigType`. * Working out the details led us to a substantial refactoring of the handling of explicit (user-written) and implicit type-variable bindings in `GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType`. Instead of a confusing family of higher order functions, we now have a local data type, `SkolemInfo`, that controls how these binders are kind-checked. It remains very fiddly, not fully satisfying. But it's better than it was. Fixes #16762. Bumps the Haddock submodule.

* | primops: Generate ByteArray# index/read/write primopsBen Gamari2020-10-311-0/+144

* | Split HsConDecl{H98,GADT}DetailsRyan Scott2020-10-301-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Haskell98 and GADT constructors both use `HsConDeclDetails`, which includes `InfixCon`. But `InfixCon` is never used for GADT constructors, which results in an awkward unrepresentable state. This removes the unrepresentable state by: * Renaming the existing `HsConDeclDetails` synonym to `HsConDeclH98Details`, which emphasizes the fact that it is now only used for Haskell98-style data constructors, and * Creating a new `HsConDeclGADTDetails` data type with `PrefixConGADT` and `RecConGADT` constructors that closely resemble `PrefixCon` and `InfixCon` in `HsConDeclH98Details`. The key difference is that `HsConDeclGADTDetails` lacks any way to represent infix constructors. The rest of the patch is refactoring to accommodate the new structure of `HsConDecl{H98,GADT}Details`. Some highlights: * The `getConArgs` and `hsConDeclArgTys` functions have been removed, as there is no way to implement these functions uniformly for all `ConDecl`s. For the most part, their previous call sites now pattern match on the `ConDecl`s directly and do different things for `ConDeclH98`s and `ConDeclGADT`s. I did introduce one new function to make the transition easier: `getRecConArgs_maybe`, which extracts the arguments from a `RecCon(GADT)`. This is still possible since `RecCon(GADT)`s still use the same representation in both `HsConDeclH98Details` and `HsConDeclGADTDetails`, and since the pattern that `getRecConArgs_maybe` implements is used in several places, I thought it worthwhile to factor it out into its own function. * Previously, the `con_args` fields in `ConDeclH98` and `ConDeclGADT` were both of type `HsConDeclDetails`. Now, the former is of type `HsConDeclH98Details`, and the latter is of type `HsConDeclGADTDetails`, which are distinct types. As a result, I had to rename the `con_args` field in `ConDeclGADT` to `con_g_args` to make it typecheck. A consequence of all this is that the `con_args` field is now partial, so using `con_args` as a top-level field selector is dangerous. (Indeed, Haddock was using `con_args` at the top-level, which caused it to crash at runtime before I noticed what was wrong!) I decided to add a disclaimer in the 9.2.1 release notes to advertise this pitfall. Fixes #18844. Bumps the `haddock` submodule.
* | Check for large tuples more thoroughlywip/T18723Ryan Scott2020-10-291-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes #18723 by: * Moving the existing `GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType.bigConstraintTuple` validity check to `GHC.Rename.Utils.checkCTupSize` for consistency with `GHC.Rename.Utils.checkTupSize`, and * Using `check(C)TupSize` when checking tuple _types_, in addition to checking names, expressions, and patterns. Note that I put as many of these checks as possible in the typechecker so that GHC can properly distinguish between boxed and constraint tuples. The exception to this rule is checking names, which I perform in the renamer (in `GHC.Rename.Env`) so that we can rule out `(,, ... ,,)` and `''(,, ... ,,)` alike in one fell swoop. While I was in town, I also removed the `HsConstraintTuple` and `HsBoxedTuple` constructors of `HsTupleSort`, which are functionally unused. This requires a `haddock` submodule bump.
* | Split GHC.Driver.TypesSylvain Henry2020-10-291-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I was working on making DynFlags stateless (#17957), especially by storing loaded plugins into HscEnv instead of DynFlags. It turned out to be complicated because HscEnv is in GHC.Driver.Types but LoadedPlugin isn't: it is in GHC.Driver.Plugins which depends on GHC.Driver.Types. I didn't feel like introducing yet another hs-boot file to break the loop. Additionally I remember that while we introduced the module hierarchy (#13009) we talked about splitting GHC.Driver.Types because it contained various unrelated types and functions, but we never executed. I didn't feel like making GHC.Driver.Types bigger with more unrelated Plugins related types, so finally I bit the bullet and split GHC.Driver.Types. As a consequence this patch moves a lot of things. I've tried to put them into appropriate modules but nothing is set in stone. Several other things moved to avoid loops. * Removed Binary instances from GHC.Utils.Binary for random compiler things * Moved Typeable Binary instances into GHC.Utils.Binary.Typeable: they import a lot of things that users of GHC.Utils.Binary don't want to depend on. * put everything related to Units/Modules under GHC.Unit: GHC.Unit.Finder, GHC.Unit.Module.{ModGuts,ModIface,Deps,etc.} * Created several modules under GHC.Types: GHC.Types.Fixity, SourceText, etc. * Split GHC.Utils.Error (into GHC.Types.Error) * Finally removed GHC.Driver.Types Note that this patch doesn't put loaded plugins into HscEnv. It's left for another patch. Bump haddock submodule

Both contain a good deal of documentation. Three other loosely-related changes are in this patch: * I implemented (partly by accident) points (2,3)) of the accepted GHC proposal "Clean up printing of foralls", namely https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/ master/proposals/0179-printing-foralls.rst (see #16320). In particular, see Note [TcRnExprMode] in GHC.Tc.Module - :type instantiates /inferred/, but not /specified/, quantifiers - :type +d instantiates /all/ quantifiers - :type +v is killed off That completes the implementation of the proposal, since point (1) was done in commit df08468113ab46832b7ac0a7311b608d1b418c4d Author: Krzysztof Gogolewski <krzysztof.gogolewski@tweag.io> Date: Mon Feb 3 21:17:11 2020 +0100 Always display inferred variables using braces * HsRecFld (which the renamer introduces for record field selectors), is now preserved by the typechecker, rather than being rewritten back to HsVar. This is more uniform, and turned out to be more convenient in the new scheme of things. * The GHCi debugger uses a non-standard unification that allows the unification variables to unify with polytypes. We used to hack this by using ImpredicativeTypes, but that doesn't work anymore so I introduces RuntimeUnkTv. See Note [RuntimeUnkTv] in GHC.Runtime.Heap.Inspect Updates haddock submodule. WARNING: this patch won't validate on its own. It was too hard to fully disentangle it from the following patch, on type errors and kind generalisation. Changes to tests * Fixes #9730 (test added) * Fixes #7026 (test added) * Fixes most of #8808, except function `g2'` which uses a section (which doesn't play with QL yet -- see #18126) Test added * Fixes #1330. NB Church1.hs subsumes Church2.hs, which is now deleted * Fixes #17332 (test added) * Fixes #4295 * This patch makes typecheck/should_run/T7861 fail. But that turns out to be a pre-existing bug: #18467. So I have just made T7861 into expect_broken(18467)

* Remove GENERATED pragma, as it is not being usedAlan Zimmerman2020-09-091-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | @alanz pointed out on ghc-devs that the payload of this pragma does not appear to be used anywhere. I (@bgamari) did some digging and traced the pragma's addition back to d386e0d2 (way back in 2006!). It appears that it was intended to be used by code generators for use in informing the code coveraging checker about generated code provenance. When it was added it used the pragma's "payload" fields as source location information to build an "ExternalBox". However, it looks like this was dropped a year later in 55a5d8d9. At this point it seems like the pragma serves no useful purpose. Given that it also is not documented, I think we should remove it. Updates haddock submodule Closes #18639
* Remove "Ord FastString" instanceSylvain Henry2020-09-011-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FastStrings can be compared in 2 ways: by Unique or lexically. We don't want to bless one particular way with an "Ord" instance because it leads to bugs (#18562) or to suboptimal code (e.g. using lexical comparison while a Unique comparison would suffice). UTF-8 encoding has the advantage that sorting strings by their encoded bytes also sorts them by their Unicode code points, without having to decode the actual code points. BUT GHC uses Modified UTF-8 which diverges from UTF-8 by encoding \0 as 0xC080 instead of 0x00 (to avoid null bytes in the middle of a String so that the string can still be null-terminated). This patch adds a new `utf8CompareShortByteString` function that performs sorting by bytes but that also takes Modified UTF-8 into account. It is much more performant than decoding the strings into [Char] to perform comparisons (which we did in the previous patch). Bump haddock submodule
* Add missing primop documentation (#18454)Krzysztof Gogolewski2020-08-282-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Add three pseudoops to primops.txt.pp, so that Haddock renders the documentation - Update comments - Remove special case for "->" - it's no longer exported from GHC.Prim - Remove reference to Note [Compiling GHC.Prim] - the ad-hoc fix is no longer there after updates to levity polymorphism. - Document GHC.Prim - Remove the comment that lazy is levity-polymorphic. As far as I can tell, it never was: in 80e399639, only the unfolding was given an open type variable. - Remove haddock hack in GHC.Magic - no longer neccessary after adding realWorld# to primops.txt.pp.
* primops: Remove Monadic and Dyadic categoriesKrzysztof Gogolewski2020-08-265-24/+2
| | | | | | | | | There were four categories of primops: Monadic, Dyadic, Compare, GenPrimOp. The compiler does not treat Monadic and Dyadic in any special way, we can just replace them with GenPrimOp. Compare is still used in isComparisonPrimOp.
* llvm-targets: Add i686 targetsBen Gamari2020-08-141-0/+3
| | | | Addresses #18422.
* Add HomeUnit typeSylvain Henry2020-08-131-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since Backpack the "home unit" is much more involved than what it was before (just an identifier obtained with `-this-unit-id`). Now it is used in conjunction with `-component-id` and `-instantiated-with` to configure module instantiations and to detect if we are type-checking an indefinite unit or compiling a definite one. This patch introduces a new HomeUnit datatype which is much easier to understand. Moreover to make GHC support several packages in the same instances, we will need to handle several HomeUnits so having a dedicated (documented) type is helpful. Finally in #14335 we will also need to handle the case where we have no HomeUnit at all because we are only loading existing interfaces for plugins which live in a different space compared to units used to produce target code. Several functions will have to be refactored to accept "Maybe HomeUnit" parameters instead of implicitly querying the HomeUnit fields in DynFlags. Having a dedicated type will make this easier.
