-- | So-called 'Literal's are one of:
--
-- * An unboxed numeric literal or floating-point literal which is presumed
--   to be surrounded by appropriate constructors (@Int#@, etc.), so that
--   the overall thing makes sense.
--
--   We maintain the invariant that the 'Integer' in the 'LitNumber'
--   constructor is actually in the (possibly target-dependent) range.
--   The mkLit{Int,Word}*Wrap smart constructors ensure this by applying
--   the target machine's wrapping semantics. Use these in situations
--   where you know the wrapping semantics are correct.

Note [BigNum literals]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GHC supports 2 kinds of arbitrary precision numbers (a.k.a BigNum):

   * data Natural = NS Word# | NB BigNat#

   * data Integer = IS Int# | IN BigNat# | IP BigNat#

In the past, we had Core constructors to represent Integer and Natural literals.
These literals were then lowered into their real Core representation only in
Core prep. The issue with this approach is that literals have two
representations and we have to ensure that we handle them the same everywhere
(in every optimisation, etc.).

For example (0 :: Integer) was representable in Core with both:

    Lit (LitNumber LitNumInteger 0)                          -- literal
    App (Var integerISDataCon) (Lit (LitNumber LitNumInt 0)) -- real representation

Nowadays we always use the real representation for Integer and Natural literals.
However we still have two representations for BigNat# literals. BigNat# literals
are still lowered in Core prep into a call to a constructor function (BigNat# is
ByteArray# and we don't have ByteArray# literals yet so we have to build them at
runtime).

Note [String literals]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
String literals are UTF-8 encoded and stored into ByteStrings in the following
ASTs: Haskell, Core, Stg, Cmm. TH can also emit ByteString based string literals
with the BytesPrimL constructor (see #14741).

It wasn't true before as [Word8] was used in Cmm AST and in TH which was quite
bad for performance with large strings (see #16198 and #14741).

To include string literals into output objects, the assembler code generator has
to embed the UTF-8 encoded binary blob. See Note [Embedding large binary blobs]
for more details.

{- Note [Word/Int underflow/overflow]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
According to the Haskell Report 2010 (Sections 18.1 and 23.1 about signed and
unsigned integral types): "All arithmetic is performed modulo 2^n, where n is
the number of bits in the type."

GHC stores Word# and Int# constant values as Integer. Core optimizations such
as constant folding must ensure that the Integer value remains in the valid
target Word/Int range (see #13172). The following functions are used to
ensure this.

Note that we *don't* warn the user about overflow. It's not done at runtime
either, and compilation of completely harmless things like
   ((124076834 :: Word32) + (2147483647 :: Word32))
doesn't yield a warning. Instead we simply squash the value into the *target*
Int/Word range.

Note [Printing of literals in Core]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The function `add_par` is used to wrap parenthesis around labels (`LitLabel`),
if they occur in a context requiring an atomic thing (for example function
application).

Although not all Core literals would be valid Haskell, we are trying to stay
as close as possible to Haskell syntax in the printing of Core, to make it
easier for a Haskell user to read Core.

To that end:
  * We do print parenthesis around negative `LitInteger`, because we print
  `LitInteger` using plain number literals (no prefix or suffix), and plain
  number literals in Haskell require parenthesis in contexts like function
  application (i.e. `1 - -1` is not valid Haskell).

  * We don't print parenthesis around other (negative) literals, because they
  aren't needed in GHC/Haskell either (i.e. `1# -# -1#` is accepted by GHC's
  parser).

Literal         Output             Output if context requires
                                   an atom (if different)

LitRubbish      "RUBBISH[...]"

Note [Rubbish literals]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes, we need to cough up a rubbish value of a certain type that is used
in place of dead code we thus aim to eliminate. The value of a dead occurrence
has no effect on the dynamic semantics of the program, so we can pick any value
of the same representation.

Exploiting the results of absence analysis in worker/wrapper is a scenario where
we need such a rubbish value, see examples in Note [Absent fillers] in
GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap.Utils.

It's completely undefined what the *value* of a rubbish value is, e.g., we could
pick @0#@ for @Int#@ or @42#@; it mustn't matter where it's inserted into a Core
program. We embed these rubbish values in the 'LitRubbish' case of the 'Literal'
data type. Here are the moving parts:

1. Source Haskell: No way to produce rubbish lits in source syntax. Purely
   an IR feature.

2. Core: 'LitRubbish' carries a `Type` of kind RuntimeRep,
   describing the runtime representaion of the literal (is it a
   pointer, an unboxed Double#, or whatever).

   We have it that `RUBBISH[rr]` has type `forall (a :: TYPE rr). a`.
   See the `LitRubbish` case of `literalType`.

   The function GHC.Core.Make.mkLitRubbish makes a Core rubbish literal of
   a given type.  It obeys the following invariants:

   INVARIANT 1: 'rr' has no free variables. Main reason: we don't need to run
   substitutions and free variable finders over Literal. The rules around
   levity/runtime-rep polymorphism naturally uphold this invariant.

   INVARIANT 2: we never make a rubbish literal of type (a ~# b). Reason:
   see Note [Core type and coercion invariant] in GHC.Core.  We can't substitute
   a LitRubbish inside a coercion, so it's best not to make one. They are zero
   width anyway, so passing absent ones around costs nothing.  If we wanted
   an absent filler of type (a ~# b) we should use (Coercion (UnivCo ...)),
   but it doesn't seem worth making a new UnivCoProvenance for this purpose.

   This is sad, though: see #18983.

3. STG: The type app in `RUBBISH[IntRep] @Int# :: Int#` is erased and we get
   the (untyped) 'StgLit' `RUBBISH[IntRep] :: Int#` in STG.

   It's treated mostly opaque, with the exception of the Unariser, where we
   take apart a case scrutinisation on, or arg occurrence of, e.g.,
   `RUBBISH[TupleRep[IntRep,DoubleRep]]` (which may stand in for `(# Int#, Double# #)`)
   into its sub-parts `RUBBISH[IntRep]` and `RUBBISH[DoubleRep]`, similar to
   unboxed tuples. `RUBBISH[VoidRep]` is erased.
   See 'unariseRubbish_maybe' and also Note [Post-unarisation invariants].

4. Cmm: We translate 'LitRubbish' to their actual rubbish value in 'cgLit'.
   The particulars are boring, and only matter when debugging illicit use of
   a rubbish value; see Modes of failure below.

5. Bytecode: In GHC.ByteCode.Asm we just lower it as a 0 literal, because it's
   all boxed to the host GC anyway.

6. IfaceSyn: `Literal` is part of `IfaceSyn`, but `Type` really isn't.  So in
   the passage from Core to Iface I put LitRubbish into its owns IfaceExpr data
   constructor, IfaceLitRubbish. The remaining constructors of Literal are
   fine as IfaceSyn.

Wrinkles

a) Why do we put the `Type` (of kind RuntimeRep) inside the literal?  Could
   we not instead /apply/ the literal to that RuntimeRep?  Alas no, becuase
   then LitRubbish :: forall (rr::RuntimeRep) (a::TYPE rr). a
   and that's am ill-formed type because its kind is `TYPE rr`, which escapes
   the binding site of `rr`. Annoying.

b) A rubbish literal is not bottom, and replies True to exprOkForSpeculation.
   For unboxed types there is no bottom anyway.  If we have
       let (x::Int#) = RUBBISH[IntRep] @Int#
   we want to convert that to a case!  We want to leave it as a let, and
   probably discard it as dead code soon after because x is unused.

c) We can see a rubbish literal at the head of an application chain.
   Most obviously, pretty much every rubbish literal is the head of a
   type application e.g. `RUBBISH[IntRep] @Int#`.  But see also
   Note [How a rubbish literal can be the head of an application]

c) Literal is in Ord, because (and only because) we use Ord on AltCon when
   building a TypeMap. Annoying.  We use `nonDetCmpType` here; the
   non-determinism won't matter because it's only used in TrieMap.
   Moreover, rubbish literals should not appear in patterns anyway.

d) Why not lower LitRubbish in CoreToStg? Because it enables us to use
   LitRubbish when unarising unboxed sums in the future, and it allows
   rubbish values of e.g.  VecRep, for which we can't cough up dummy
   values in STG.

Modes of failure
----------------
Suppose there is a bug in GHC, and a rubbish value is used after all. That is
undefined behavior, of course, but let us list a few examples for failure modes:

 a) For an value of unboxed numeric type like `Int#`, we just use a silly
    value like 42#. The error might propoagate indefinitely, hence we better
    pick a rather unique literal. Same for Word, Floats, Char and VecRep.
 b) For AddrRep (like String lits), we mit a null pointer, resulting in a
    definitive segfault when accessed.
 c) For boxed values, unlifted or not, we use a pointer to a fixed closure,
    like `()`, so that the GC has a pointer to follow.
    If we use that pointer as an 'Array#', we will likely access fields of the
    array that don't exist, and a seg-fault is likely, but not guaranteed.
    If we use that pointer as `Either Int Bool`, we might try to access the
    'Int' field of the 'Left' constructor (which has the same ConTag as '()'),
    which doesn't exists. In the best case, we'll find an invalid pointer in its
    position and get a seg-fault, in the worst case the error manifests only one
    or two indirections later.

Note [How a rubbish literal can be the head of an application]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Consider this (#19824):

    h :: T3 -> Int -> blah
    h _ (I# n) = ...

    f :: (T1 -> T2 -> T3) -> T4 -> blah
    f g x = ....(h (g n s) x)...

Demand analysis finds that h does not use its first argument, and w/w's h to

    {-# INLINE h #-}
    h a b = case b of I# n -> $wh n

Demand analysis also finds that f does not use its first arg,
so the worker for f look like

    $wf x = let g = RUBBISH in
            ....(h (g n s) x)...

Now we inline g to get:

    $wf x = ....(h (RUBBISH n s) x)...

And lo, until we inline `h`, we have that application of
RUBBISH in $wf's RHS.  But surely `h` will inline? Not if the
arguments look boring.  Well, RUBBISH doesn't look boring.  But it
could be a bit more complicated like
   f g x = let t = ...(g n s)...
           in ...(h t x)...

and now the call looks more boring.  Anyway, the point is that we
might reasonably see RUBBISH at the head of an application chain.

It would be fine to rewrite
  RUBBISH @(ta->tb->tr) a b  --->   RUBBISH @tr
but we don't currently do so.

It is NOT ok to discard the entire continuation:
  case RUBBISH @ty of DEFAULT -> blah
does not return RUBBISH!
