This is too large of a hammer. This reverts commit 5640cb1d.
-
-
Previously various `Instr` queries used by the graph-colouring allocator failed to handle a few pseudo-instructions. This manifested in compiler panicks while compiling `SHA`, which uses `-fregs-graph`. Fixes #22798.
-
Previously trivColourable for AArch64 claimed that at 18 registers were trivially-colourable. This is incorrect as x18 is reserved by the platform on AArch64/Darwin. See #22798.
-
Previously various panics would rely on a half-written Show instance, leading to very unhelpful errors. Fix this. See #22798.
-
This patch tracks the type of Cmm global registers. This is needed in order to lint uses of polymorphic registers, such as SIMD vector registers that can be used both for floating-point and integer values. This changes allows us to refactor VanillaReg to not store VGcPtr, as that information is instead stored in the type of the usage of the register. Fixes #22297
-
Teach the `configure` script to create the `VERSION` file. This will serve as the stable interface to allow the user to determine the version number of a working tree. Fixes #22322.

Fixes #11270

This patch fixes #22745 and #15205, which are about GHC's failure to discard unnecessary superclass selections that yield coercions. See GHC.Core.Utils Note [exprOkForSpeculation and type classes] The main changes are: * Write new Note [NON-BOTTOM_DICTS invariant] in GHC.Core, and refer to it * Define new function isTerminatingType, to identify those guaranteed-terminating dictionary types. * exprOkForSpeculation has a new (very simple) case for ClassOpId * ClassOpId has a new field that says if the return type is an unlifted type, or a terminating type. This was surprisingly tricky to get right. In particular note that unlifted types are not terminating types; you can write an expression of unlifted type, that diverges. Not so for dictionaries (or, more precisely, for the dictionaries that GHC constructs). Metric Decrease: LargeRecord

gamma is a glibc-only deprecated function, use tgamma instead. It's required for fixing cg007 when testing the wasm unregisterised codegen.
-
some things have been renamed since it was written, it seems.
-
This patch fixes a few places in RtsFlags.c that may result in divide-by-zero error when tickInterval=0, which is the default on wasm. Fixes #22603.

* Allow filepath to be reinstalled * Bump some version bounds to allow newer versions of libraries * Rework testing logic to avoid "install --lib" and package env files Fixes #22344

This commit updates the user's guide section on overlapping instance candidate elimination to use "or" verbiage instead of "either/or" in regards to the current pair of candidates' being overlappable or overlapping. "Either IX is overlappable, or IY is overlapping" can cause confusion as it suggests "Either IX is overlappable, or IY is overlapping, but not both". This was initially discussed on this Discourse topic: https://discourse.haskell.org/t/clarification-on-overlapping-instance-candidate-elimination/5677
-
In particular we do not have a release job for FreeBSD so the generation of the platform mapping was failing.
-
These were not uploaded for alpha1 Fixes #22844
-
This check makes sure that if a job is a prefixed by "release-" then the script downloads it and understands how to map the job name to the platform.
-
We no longer attempt to build or distribute this release
-
The key change is that in GHC.Core.Opt.Specialise.specLookupRule we were using realIdUnfolding, which ignores the loop-breaker flag. When given a loop breaker, rule matching therefore looped infinitely -- #22802. In fixing this I refactored a bit. * Define GHC.Core.InScopeEnv as a data type, and use it. (Previously it was a pair: hard to grep for.) * Put several functions returning an IdUnfoldingFun into GHC.Types.Id, namely idUnfolding alwaysActiveUnfoldingFun, whenActiveUnfoldingFun, noUnfoldingFun and use them. (The are all loop-breaker aware.)
-
This patch fixes two issues in the way that `type data` declarations were reified with Template Haskell: * `type data` data constructors are now properly reified using `DataConI`. This is accomplished with a special case in `reifyTyCon`. Fixes #22818. * `type data` type constructors are now reified in `reifyTyCon` using `TypeDataD` instead of `DataD`. Fixes #22819.
-
Unlike most other data constructors, data constructors declared with `type data` are represented in `TyThing`s as `ATyCon` rather than `ADataCon`. The `ATyCon` case in `tyThingParent_maybe` previously did not consider the possibility of the underlying `TyCon` being a promoted data constructor, which led to the oddities observed in #22817. This patch adds a dedicated special case in `tyThingParent_maybe`'s `ATyCon` case for `type data` data constructors to fix these oddities. Fixes #22817.
-
We use keepCAFsForGHCi.c to force -fkeep-cafs behaviour by using a __attribute__((constructor)) function. This broke for static builds where the linker discarded the object file since it was not reverenced from any exported code. We fix this by asserting that the flag is enabled using a function in the same module as the constructor. Which causes the object file to be retained by the linker, which in turn causes the constructor the be run in static builds. This changes nothing for dynamic builds using the ghc library. But causes static to also retain CAFs (as we expect them to). Fixes #22417. ------------------------- Metric Decrease: T21839r -------------------------

Previously we tried to lower the alignment requirement as far as possible, based on the section kind inferred from the CLabel. For info tables, .p2align 1 was applied given the GC should only need the lowest bit to tag forwarding pointers. But this would lead to unaligned loads/stores, which has a performance penalty even if the wasm spec permits it. Furthermore, the test suite has shown memory corruption in a few cases when compacting gc is used. This patch takes a more conservative approach: all data sections except C strings align to word size.

Asm-shortcutting may produce relative references to symbols defined in other compilation units. This is not something that MachO relocations support (see #21972). For this reason we disable the optimisation on Darwin. We do so without a warning since this flag is enabled by `-O2`. Another way to address this issue would be to rather implement a PLT-relocatable jump-table strategy. However, this would only benefit Darwin and does not seem worth the effort. Closes #21972.

Properly handle ForeignHints of ccall arguments/return value, insert sign extends and truncations when handling signed subwords. Fixes #22852.
-
The CmmBlock datacon was not handled in lower_CmmLit, since I thought it would have been eliminated after proc-point splitting. Turns out it still occurs in very rare occasions, and this patch is needed to fix T9329 for wasm.
-
This patch fixes the W8/W16 literal narrowing logic in the wasm NCG, which used to lower it to something like i32.const -1, without properly zeroing-out the unused higher bits. Fixes #22608.

Previously we were just throwing away the contents of the library-dirs fields but really we have to do the same thing as for include-dirs, relativise the paths into the current working directory and maintain any extra libraries the user has specified. Now the relevant section of the rts.conf file looks like: ``` library-dirs: ${pkgroot}/../rts/build ${pkgroot}/../../..//_build/stage1/rts/build /nix/store/av4c0fib4rkmb6sa1074z0rb1ciria5b-gperftools-2.10/lib /nix/store/2infxahfp9lj084xn3q9ib5ajks8447i-libffi-3.4.4/lib library-dirs-static: ${pkgroot}/../rts/build ${pkgroot}/../../..//_build/stage1/rts/build /nix/store/av4c0fib4rkmb6sa1074z0rb1ciria5b-gperftools-2.10/lib /nix/store/2infxahfp9lj084xn3q9ib5ajks8447i-libffi-3.4.4/lib dynamic-library-dirs: ${pkgroot}/../rts/build ${pkgroot}/../../..//_build/stage1/rts/build /nix/store/av4c0fib4rkmb6sa1074z0rb1ciria5b-gperftools-2.10/lib /nix/store/2infxahfp9lj084xn3q9ib5ajks8447i-libffi-3.4.4/lib ``` Fixes #22209

I removed all occurrences of TcRnUnknownMessage in GHC.Rename.Bind module. Instead, these TcRnMessage messages were introduced: TcRnMultipleFixityDecls TcRnIllegalPatternSynonymDecl TcRnIllegalClassBiding TcRnOrphanCompletePragma TcRnEmptyCase TcRnNonStdGuards TcRnDuplicateSigDecl TcRnMisplacedSigDecl TcRnUnexpectedDefaultSig TcRnBindInBootFile TcRnDuplicateMinimalSig

Previously, when using `capi` calling convention in foreign declarations, code generator failed to handle const-cualified pointer return types. This resulted in CC toolchain throwing `-Wincompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers` warning. `Foreign.C.Types.ConstPtr` newtype was introduced to handle these cases - special treatment was put in place to generate appropritetly qualified C wrapper that no longer triggers the above mentioned warning. Fixes #22043.

These are no longer necessary since we now compile as C99.
-
"tracingAddCapabilities" was mis-named
-
Make the RTS compilable with a C++ compiler by inserting necessary casts.
