The order inert_model and intert_eqs fold affects the order that the typechecker looks at things. I've been able to experimentally confirm that the order of equalities and the order of the model matter for determinism. This is just a straigthforward replacement of nondeterministic VarEnv for deterministic DVarEnv.

We want to remove varSetElems at the source level because it might be a source of nondeterminism. I don't think it introduces nondeterminism here, but it's easy to do the same thing deterministically for the same price. instFlexiTcS :: [TKVar] -> TcS (TCvSubst, [TcType]) instFlexiTcS currently gives the range of the produced substitution as the second element of the tuple, but it's not used anywhere right now. If it started to be used in the code I'm modifying it would cause nondeterminism problems.

Provoked by Trac #11948, this patch adds a new warning to GHC -Wsimplifiable-class-constraints It warns if you write a class constraint in a type signature that can be simplified by an existing instance declaration. Almost always this means you should simplify it right now; type inference is very fragile without it, as #11948 shows. I've put the warning as on-by-default, but I suppose that if there are howls of protest we can move it out (as happened for -Wredundant-constraints. It actually found an example of an over-complicated context in CmmNode. Quite a few tests use these weird contexts to trigger something else, so I had to suppress the warning in those. The 'haskeline' library has a few occurrences of the warning (which I think should be fixed), so I switched it off for that library in warnings.mk. The warning itself is done in TcValidity.check_class_pred. HOWEVER, when type inference fails we get a type error; and the error suppresses the (informative) warning. So as things stand, the warning only happens when it doesn't cause a problem. Not sure what to do about this, but this patch takes us forward, I think.

When you do `varSetElems (tyCoVarsOfType x)` it's equivalent to `tyCoVarsOfTypeList x`. Why? If you look at the implementation: ``` tyCoVarsOfTypeList ty = runFVList $ tyCoVarsOfTypeAcc ty tyCoVarsOfType ty = runFVSet $ tyCoVarsOfTypeAcc ty ``` they use the same helper function. The helper function returns a deterministically ordered list and a set. The only difference between the two is which part of the result they take. It is redundant to take the set and then immediately convert it to a list. This helps with determinism and we eventually want to replace the uses of `varSetElems` with functions that don't leak the values of uniques. This change gets rid of some instances that are easy to kill. I chose not to annotate every place where I got rid of `varSetElems` with a comment about non-determinism, because once we get rid of `varSetElems` it will not be possible to do the wrong thing.

We originally wanted CallStacks to be opt-in, but dealing with let binders complicated things, forcing us to infer CallStacks. It turns out that the inference is actually unnecessary though, we can let the wanted CallStacks bubble up to the outer context by refusing to quantify over them. Eventually they'll be solved from a given CallStack or defaulted to the empty CallStack if they reach the top. So this patch prevents GHC from quantifying over CallStacks, getting us back to the original plan. There's a small ugliness to do with PartialTypeSignatures, if the partial theta contains a CallStack constraint, we *do* want to quantify over the CallStack; the user asked us to! Note that this means that foo :: _ => CallStack foo = getCallStack callStack will be an *empty* CallStack, since we won't infer a CallStack for the hole in the theta. I think this is the right move though, since we want CallStacks to be opt-in. One can always write foo :: (HasCallStack, _) => CallStack foo = getCallStack callStack to get the CallStack and still have GHC infer the rest of the theta.

See Note [TYPE] in TysPrim. There are still some outstanding pieces in #11471 though, so this doesn't actually nail the bug. This commit also contains a few performance improvements: * Short-cut equality checking of nullary type syns * Compare types before kinds in eqType * INLINE coreViewOneStarKind * Store tycon binders separately from kinds. This resulted in a ~10% performance improvement in compiling the Cabal package. No change in functionality other than performance. (This affects the interface file format, though.) This commit updates the haddock submodule.

Summary: In the past the canonical way for constructing an SDoc string literal was the composition `ptext . sLit`. But for some time now we have function `text` that does the same. Plus it has some rules that optimize its runtime behaviour. This patch takes all uses of `ptext . sLit` in the compiler and replaces them with calls to `text`. The main benefits of this patch are clener (shorter) code and less dependencies between module, because many modules now do not need to import `FastString`. I don't expect any performance benefits - we mostly use SDocs to report errors and it seems there is little to be gained here.

I missed a crucial step in the wiring-in process of `CallStack` in D861, the bit where you actually wire-in the Name... This led to a nasty bug where GHC thought `CallStack` was not wired-in and tried to fingerprint it, which failed because the defining module was not loaded. But we don't need `CallStack` to be wired-in anymore since `error` and `undefined` no longer need to be wired-in. So we just remove them all. Updates haddock submodule.

As a result of some other unrelated changes I found that IndTypesPerf was failing, and opened Trac #11408. There's a test in indexed-types/should-compile/T11408. The bug was that a type like forall t. (MT (UL t) (UR t) ~ t) => UL t -> UR t -> Int is in fact unambiguous, but it's a bit subtle to prove that it is unambiguous. In investigating, Dimitrios and I found several subtle bugs in the constraint solver, fixed by this patch * canRewrite was missing a Derived/Derived case. This was lost by accident in Richard's big kind-equality patch. * Interact.interactTyVarEq would discard [D] a ~ ty if there was a [W] a ~ ty in the inert set. But that is wrong because the former can rewrite things that the latter cannot. Fix: a new function eqCanDischarge * In TcSMonad.addInertEq, the process was outright wrong for a Given/Wanted in the (GWModel) case. We were adding a new Derived without kicking out things that it could rewrite. Now the code is simpler (no special GWModel case), and works correctly. * The special case in kickOutRewritable for [W] fsk ~ ty, turns out not to be needed. (We emit a [D] fsk ~ ty which will do the job. I improved comments and documentation, esp in TcSMonad.

This exposes `template-haskell` functions for querying the language extensions which are enabled when compiling a module, - an `isExtEnabled` function to check whether an extension is enabled - an `extsEnabled` function to obtain a full list of enabled extensions To avoid code duplication this adds a `GHC.LanguageExtensions` module to `ghc-boot` and moves `DynFlags.ExtensionFlag` into it. A happy consequence of this is that the ungainly `DynFlags` lost around 500 lines. Moreover, flags corresponding to language extensions are now clearly distinguished from other flags due to the `LangExt.*` prefix. Updates haddock submodule. This fixes #10820.

This patch fulfils the request in Trac #11067, #10318, and #10592, by lifting the conservative restrictions on superclass constraints. These restrictions are there (and have been since Haskell was born) to ensure that the transitive superclasses of a class constraint is a finite set. However (a) this restriction is conservative, and can be annoying when there really is no recursion, and (b) sometimes genuinely recursive superclasses are useful (see the tickets). Dimitrios and I worked out that there is actually a relatively simple way to do the job. It’s described in some detail in Note [The superclass story] in TcCanonical Note [Expanding superclasses] in TcType In brief, the idea is to expand superclasses only finitely, but to iterate (using a loop that already existed) if there are more superclasses to explore. Other small things - I improved grouping of error messages a bit in TcErrors - I re-centred the haddock.compiler test, which was at 9.8% above the norm, and which this patch pushed slightly over

We can't just solve CallStack constraints indiscriminately when they occur in the RHS of a let-binder. The top-level given CallStack (if any) will not be in scope, so I've re-worked the CallStack solver as follows: 1. CallStacks are treated like regular IPs unless one of the following two rules apply. 2. In a function call, we push the call-site onto a NEW wanted CallStack, which GHC will solve as a regular IP (either directly from a given, or by quantifying over it in a local let). 3. If, after the constraint solver is done, any wanted CallStacks remain, we default them to the empty CallStack. This rule exists mainly to clean up after rule 2 in a top-level binder with no given CallStack. In rule (2) we have to be careful to emit the new wanted with an IPOccOrigin instead of an OccurrenceOf origin, so rule (2) doesn't fire again. This is a bit shady but I've updated the Note to explain the trick.

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 patch modifies `error`, `undefined`, and `assertError` to use implicit call-stacks to provide better error messages to users. There are a few knock-on effects: - `GHC.Classes.IP` is now wired-in so it can be used in the wired-in types for `error` and `undefined`. - `TysPrim.tyVarList` has been replaced with a new function `TysPrim.mkTemplateTyVars`. `tyVarList` made it easy to introduce subtle bugs when you need tyvars of different kinds. The naive ``` tv1 = head $ tyVarList kind1 tv2 = head $ tyVarList kind2 ``` would result in `tv1` and `tv2` sharing a `Unique`, thus substitutions would be applied incorrectly, treating `tv1` and `tv2` as the same tyvar. `mkTemplateTyVars` avoids this pitfall by taking a list of kinds and producing a single tyvar of each kind. - The types `GHC.SrcLoc.SrcLoc` and `GHC.Stack.CallStack` now live in ghc-prim. - The type `GHC.Exception.ErrorCall` has a new constructor `ErrorCallWithLocation` that takes two `String`s instead of one, the 2nd one being arbitrary metadata about the error (but usually the call-stack). A bi-directional pattern synonym `ErrorCall` continues to provide the old API. Updates Cabal, array, and haddock submodules.

I wasn't very happy with my fix to Trac #10009. This is much better. The main idea is that the inert set now contains a "model", which embodies *all* the (nominal) equalities that we know about, with a view to exposing unifications. This requires a lot fewer iterations of the solver than before. There are extensive comments in TcSMonad: Note [inert_model: the inert model] Note [Adding an inert canonical constraint the InertCans] The big changes are * New inert_model field in InertCans * Functions addInertEq, addInertCan deal with adding a constraint, maintaining the model * A nice improvement is that unification variables can unify with fmvs, so that from, say alpha ~ fmv we get alpha := fmv See Note [Orientation of equalities with fmvs] in TcFlatten It's still not perfect, as the Note explains New flag -fconstraint-solver-iterations=n, allows us to control the number of constraint solver iterations, and in particular will flag up when it's more than a small number. Performance is generally slightly better: T5837 is a lot better for some reason.

TcInstDcls.tcSuperClasses was getting increasingly baroque as a succession of tickets (#10423 being the latest) pointed out that my cunning plan was not so cunning. The big issue is how to restrict the evidence that we generate for superclass constraints in an instance declaration to avoid superclass loops. See Note [Recursive superclasses] in TcInstDcls which explains the plan. The question is how to implement the plan. The new implementation is much neater, and is described in Note [Solving superclass constraints] in TcInstDcls.

Make tuple constraints be handled by a perfectly ordinary type class, with the component constraints being the superclasses: class (c1, c2) => (c2, c2) This change was provoked by #10359 inability to re-use a given tuple constraint as a whole #9858 confusion between term tuples and constraint tuples but it's generally a very nice simplification. We get rid of - In Type, the TuplePred constructor of PredTree, and all the code that dealt with TuplePreds - In TcEvidence, the constructors EvTupleMk, EvTupleSel See Note [How tuples work] in TysWiredIn. Of course, nothing is ever entirely simple. This one proved quite fiddly. - I did quite a bit of renaming, which makes this patch touch a lot of modules. In partiuclar tupleCon -> tupleDataCon. - I made constraint tuples known-key rather than wired-in. This is different to boxed/unboxed tuples, but it proved awkward to have all the superclass selectors wired-in. Easier just to use the standard mechanims. - While I was fiddling with known-key names, I split the TH Name definitions out of DsMeta into a new module THNames. That meant that the known-key names can all be gathered in PrelInfo, without causing module loops. - I found that the parser was parsing an import item like T( .. ) as a *data constructor* T, and then using setRdrNameSpace to fix it. Stupid! So I changed the parser to parse a *type constructor* T, which means less use of setRdrNameSpace. I also improved setRdrNameSpace to behave better on Exact Names. Largely on priciple; I don't think it matters a lot. - When compiling a data type declaration for a wired-in thing like tuples (,), or lists, we don't really need to look at the declaration. We have the wired-in thing! And not doing so avoids having to line up the uniques for data constructor workers etc. See Note [Declarations for wired-in things] - I found that FunDeps.oclose wasn't taking superclasses into account; easily fixed. - Some error message refactoring for invalid constraints in TcValidity - Haddock needs to absorb the change too; so there is a submodule update

This change makes the matchable-given check apply uniformly to - constraint tuples - natural numbers - Typeable as well as to vanilla class constraints. See Note [Instance and Given overlap] in TcInteract
