-- Note [Live vs free]
-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
--
-- The two are not the same. Liveness is an operational property rather
-- than a semantic one. A variable is live at a particular execution
-- point if it can be referred to directly again. In particular, a dead
-- variable's stack slot (if it has one):
--
--           - should be stubbed to avoid space leaks, and
--           - may be reused for something else.
--
-- There ought to be a better way to say this. Here are some examples:
--
--         let v = [q] \[x] -> e
--         in
--         ...v...  (but no q's)
--
-- Just after the `in', v is live, but q is dead. If the whole of that
-- let expression was enclosed in a case expression, thus:
--
--         case (let v = [q] \[x] -> e in ...v...) of
--                 alts[...q...]
--
-- (ie `alts' mention `q'), then `q' is live even after the `in'; because
-- we'll return later to the `alts' and need it.
--
-- Let-no-escapes make this a bit more interesting:
--
--         let-no-escape v = [q] \ [x] -> e
--         in
--         ...v...
--
-- Here, `q' is still live at the `in', because `v' is represented not by
-- a closure but by the current stack state.  In other words, if `v' is
-- live then so is `q'. Furthermore, if `e' mentions an enclosing
-- let-no-escaped variable, then its free variables are also live if `v' is.

-- Note [What are these SRTs all about?]
-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
--
-- Consider the Core program,
--
--     fibs = go 1 1
--       where go a b = let c = a + c
--                      in c : go b c
--     add x = map (\y -> x*y) fibs
--
-- In this case we have a CAF, 'fibs', which is quite large after evaluation and
-- has only one possible user, 'add'. Consequently, we want to ensure that when
-- all references to 'add' die we can garbage collect any bit of 'fibs' that we
-- have evaluated.
--
-- However, how do we know whether there are any references to 'fibs' still
-- around? Afterall, the only reference to it is buried in the code generated
-- for 'add'. The answer is that we record the CAFs referred to by a definition
-- in its info table, namely a part of it known as the Static Reference Table
-- (SRT).
--
-- Since SRTs are so common, we use a special compact encoding for them in: we
-- produce one table containing a list of CAFs in a module and then include a
-- bitmap in each info table describing which entries of this table the closure
-- references.
--
-- See also: commentary/rts/storage/gc/CAFs on the GHC Wiki.

-- Note [What is a non-escaping let]
-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
--
-- NB: Nowadays this is recognized by the occurrence analyser by turning a
-- "non-escaping let" into a join point. The following is then an operational
-- account of join points.
--
-- Consider:
--
--     let x = fvs \ args -> e
--     in
--         if ... then x else
--            if ... then x else ...
--
-- `x' is used twice (so we probably can't unfold it), but when it is
-- entered, the stack is deeper than it was when the definition of `x'
-- happened.  Specifically, if instead of allocating a closure for `x',
-- we saved all `x's fvs on the stack, and remembered the stack depth at
-- that moment, then whenever we enter `x' we can simply set the stack
-- pointer(s) to these remembered (compile-time-fixed) values, and jump
-- to the code for `x'.
--
-- All of this is provided x is:
--   1. non-updatable;
--   2. guaranteed to be entered before the stack retreats -- ie x is not
--      buried in a heap-allocated closure, or passed as an argument to
--      something;
--   3. all the enters have exactly the right number of arguments,
--      no more no less;
--   4. all the enters are tail calls; that is, they return to the
--      caller enclosing the definition of `x'.
--
-- Under these circumstances we say that `x' is non-escaping.
--
-- An example of when (4) does not hold:
--
--     let x = ...
--     in case x of ...alts...
--
-- Here, `x' is certainly entered only when the stack is deeper than when
-- `x' is defined, but here it must return to ...alts... So we can't just
-- adjust the stack down to `x''s recalled points, because that would lost
-- alts' context.
--
-- Things can get a little more complicated.  Consider:
--
--     let y = ...
--     in let x = fvs \ args -> ...y...
--     in ...x...
--
-- Now, if `x' is used in a non-escaping way in ...x..., and `y' is used in a
-- non-escaping way in ...y..., then `y' is non-escaping.
--
-- `x' can even be recursive!  Eg:
--
--     letrec x = [y] \ [v] -> if v then x True else ...
--     in
--         ...(x b)...

-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
--
-- Previously `coreToStg` was initializing cost-centre stack fields as `noCCS`,
-- and the fields were then fixed by a separate pass `stgMassageForProfiling`.
-- We now initialize these correctly. The initialization works like this:
--
--   - For non-top level bindings always use `currentCCS`.
--
--   - For top-level bindings, check if the binding is a CAF
--
--     - CAF:      If -fcaf-all is enabled, create a new CAF just for this CAF
--                 and use it. Note that these new cost centres need to be
--                 collected to be able to generate cost centre initialization
--                 code, so `coreToTopStgRhs` now returns `CollectedCCs`.
--
--                 If -fcaf-all is not enabled, use "all CAFs" cost centre.
--
--     - Non-CAF:  Top-level (static) data is not counted in heap profiles; nor
--                 do we set CCCS from it; so we just slam in
--                 dontCareCostCentre.

-- Note [Coercion tokens]
-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-- In coreToStgArgs, we drop type arguments completely, but we replace
-- coercions with a special coercionToken# placeholder. Why? Consider:
--
--   f :: forall a. Int ~# Bool -> a
--   f = /\a. \(co :: Int ~# Bool) -> error "impossible"
--
-- If we erased the coercion argument completely, we’d end up with just
-- f = error "impossible", but then f `seq` () would be ⊥!
--
-- This is an artificial example, but back in the day we *did* treat
-- coercion lambdas like type lambdas, and we had bug reports as a
-- result. So now we treat coercion lambdas like value lambdas, but we
-- treat coercions themselves as zero-width arguments — coercionToken#
-- has representation VoidRep — which gets the best of both worlds.
--
-- (For the gory details, see also the (unpublished) paper, “Practical
-- aspects of evidence-based compilation in System FC.”)

{- Note [Collect args]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This big-lambda case occurred following a rather obscure eta expansion.
It all seems a bit yukky to me.

Note [Ticks in applications]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We can get an application like
   (tick t f) True False
via inlining in the CorePrep pass; see Note [Inlining in CorePrep]
in GHC.CoreToStg.Prep.  The tick does not satisfy tickishIsCode;
the inlining-in-CorePrep happens for cpExprIsTrivial which tests
tickishIsCode.

So we test the same thing here, pushing any non-code ticks to
the top (they don't generate any code, after all).  This showed
up in the fallout from fixing #19360.
