A profile cast doubt on whether the compiler hoisted the bound out the loop as I would have expected here. It turns out it did but nevertheless it seems clearer to just do this manually.
-
Previously nonmovingInitSegment would clear the bitmap before initializing the segment's block size. This is broken since nonmovingClearBitmap looks at the segment's block size to determine how much bitmap to clear.

There is a new command to hadrian, tool:path/to/file.hs, which returns the options needed to compile that file in GHCi. This is now used in the ghci script with argument `ghc/Main.hs` but its main purpose is to support the new multi-component branch of ghcide.

This was just an omission...b I'd failed to call markAllNonTailCall on rule args. I think this bug has been here a long time, but it's quite hard to trigger. Fixes #18098

Arrow control operators have their own entries in the grammar, so they did not cooperate with BlockArguments. This was just a minor oversight, so this patch adjusts the grammar to add the desired behavior. fixes #18050

Introduce GHC.Unit.* hierarchy for everything concerning units, packages and modules. Update Haddock submodule
-
Over the years the unit management code has been modified a lot to keep up with changes in Cabal (e.g. support for several library components in the same package), to integrate BackPack, etc. I found it very hard to understand as the terminology wasn't consistent, was referring to past concepts, etc. The terminology is now explained as clearly as I could in the Note "About Units" and the code is refactored to reflect it. ------------------- Many names were misleading: UnitId is not an Id but could be a virtual unit (an indefinite one instantiated on the fly), IndefUnitId constructor may contain a definite instantiated unit, etc. * Rename IndefUnitId into InstantiatedUnit * Rename IndefModule into InstantiatedModule * Rename UnitId type into Unit * Rename IndefiniteUnitId constructor into VirtUnit * Rename DefiniteUnitId constructor into RealUnit * Rename packageConfigId into mkUnit * Rename getPackageDetails into unsafeGetUnitInfo * Rename InstalledUnitId into UnitId Remove references to misleading ComponentId: a ComponentId is just an indefinite unit-id to be instantiated. * Rename ComponentId into IndefUnitId * Rename ComponentDetails into UnitPprInfo * Fix display of UnitPprInfo with empty version: this is now used for units dynamically generated by BackPack Generalize several types (Module, Unit, etc.) so that they can be used with different unit identifier types: UnitKey, UnitId, Unit, etc. * GenModule: Module, InstantiatedModule and InstalledModule are now instances of this type * Generalize DefUnitId, IndefUnitId, Unit, InstantiatedUnit, PackageDatabase Replace BackPack fake "hole" UnitId by a proper HoleUnit constructor. Add basic support for UnitKey. They should be used more in the future to avoid mixing them up with UnitId as we do now. Add many comments. Update Haddock submodule -
This patch factorizes the duplicated code used in ghc-pkg and in GHC to munge package paths/urls. It also fixes haddock-html munging in GHC (allowed to be either a file or a url) to mimic ghc-pkg behavior.

Converting between UnitInfo stored in package databases and UnitInfo as they are used in ghc-pkg and ghc was done in a very convoluted way (via BinaryStringRep and DbUnitModuleRep type classes using fun deps, etc.). It was difficult to understand and even more to modify (I wanted to try to use a GADT for UnitId but fun deps got in the way). The new code uses much more straightforward functions to convert between the different representations. Much simpler.

* Rename InstalledPackageInfo into GenericUnitInfo The name InstalledPackageInfo is only kept for alleged backward compatibility reason in Cabal. ghc-boot has its own stripped down copy of this datatype but it doesn't need to keep the name. Internally we already use type aliases (UnitInfo in GHC, PackageCacheFormat in ghc-pkg). * Rename UnitInfo fields: add "unit" prefix and fix misleading names * Add comments on every UnitInfo field * Rename SourcePackageId into PackageId "Package" already indicates that it's a "source package". Installed package components are called units. Update Haddock submodule

Unlike other tuples, which use special syntax and are "known" by way of a special `isBuiltInOcc_maybe` code path, boxed 1-tuples do not use special syntax. Therefore, in order to make sure that the internals of GHC are aware of the `data Unit a = Unit a` definition in `GHC.Tuple`, we give `Unit` known keys. For the full details, see `Note [One-tuples] (Wrinkle: Make boxed one-tuple names have known keys)` in `GHC.Builtin.Types`. Fixes #18097.

Fixes #18103.

The idea being that when a builder('s command) fails, we quite likely want to have all the information available to figure out why. Depending on the builder _and_ the particular problem, the useful bits of information can be printed on stdout or stderr. We accomplish this by defining a simple wrapper for Shake's `cmd` function, that just _always_ captures both streams in case the command returns a non-zero exit code, and by using this wrapper everywhere in `hadrian/src/Builder.hs`. Fixes #18089. -
We shouldn't compare pointer values but the actual bytes.

We don't use hash tables in non-moving GC so remove the includes. This breaks Compact.c as existing includes no longer include Hash.h, so include Hash.h explicitly in Compact.c.

In !1798 we were requested to replace many `Bool`s with this data type. But those bools had `False` meaning `NotBoot`, so the `Ord` instance would be flipped if we use this data-type as-is. Since the planned formally-`Bool` occurrences vastly outnumber the current occurrences, we figured it would be better to conform the `Ord` instance to how the `Bool` is used now, fixing any issues, rather than fix them currently with the bigger refactor later in !1798. That way, !1798 can be a "pure" refactor with no behavioral changes.

- `ConPat{In,Out}` -> `ConPat` - `CoPat` -> `XPat (CoPat ..)` Note that `GHC.HS.*` still uses `HsWrap`, but only when `p ~ GhcTc`. After this change, moving the type family instances out of `GHC.HS.*` is sufficient to break the cycle. Add XCollectPat class to decide how binders are collected from XXPat based on the pass. Previously we did this with IsPass, but that doesn't work for Haddock's DocNameI, and the constraint doesn't express what actual distinction is being made. Perhaps a class for collecting binders more generally is in order, but we haven't attempted this yet. Pure refactor of code around ConPat - InPat/OutPat synonyms removed - rename several identifiers - redundant constraints removed - move extension field in ConPat to be first - make ConPat use record syntax more consistently Fix T6145 (ConPatIn became ConPat) Add comments from SPJ. Add comment about haddock's use of CollectPass. Updates haddock submodule. -
Simon reports that he was previously seeing framework failures due to an attempt to read the non-existing T13456.stderr. While I don't know exactly what this is due to, it does seem like a non-existing .std{out,err} file should be equivalent to an empty file. Teach the testsuite driver to treat it as such. -
Previously the arguments passed to hadrian/ghci were passed both to `hadrian` and GHCi. This is rather odd given that there are essentially not arguments in the intersection of the two. Let's just pass them to GHCi; this allows `hadrian/ghci -Werror`.

See `Note [Associated data family instances and di_scoped_tvs]` in `GHC.Tc.TyCl.Instance`, which explains all of the moving parts. Fixes #18055.

Reading a timerfd may return 0: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/8/16/335. This is currently undocumented behavior and documentation "won't happen anytime soon" (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/2/13/295). With this patch, we just ignore the result instead of crashing. It may fix #18033 but we can't be sure because we don't have enough information. See also this discussion about the kernel bug: https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss-common/pull/302/files/1f070e7920c2e5d63316c0105bf4481e73d72dc9

There was some out-of-date commentary in `GHC.Tc.Deriv.Infer` that has been modernized. Along the way, I removed the `bad` constraints in `simplifyDeriv`, which did not serve any useful purpose (besides being printed in debugging output). Fixes #18073.

Issue #18076 drew my attention to the undocumented `-fast-llvm` flag for the LLVM code generator introduced in 22733532. Speaking to Moritz about this, the motivation for this flag was to avoid potential incompatibilities between LLVM and the assembler/linker toolchain by making LLVM responsible for machine-code generation. Unfortunately, this cannot possibly work: the LLVM backend's mangler performs a number of transforms on the assembler generated by LLVM that are necessary for correctness. These are currently: * mangling Haskell functions' symbol types to be `object` instead of `function` on ELF platforms (necessary for tables-next-to-code) * mangling AVX instructions to ensure that we don't assume alignment (which LLVM otherwise does) * mangling Darwin's subsections-via-symbols directives Given that these are all necessary I don't believe that we can support `-fast-llvm`. Let's rather remove it.

I noticed these may have uninitialized fields when looking into #18037. The reporter says that zeroing them doesn't fix the MSAN failures they observe but zeroing them is the right thing to do regardless.

This patch implements eager instantiation, a small but critical change to the type inference engine, #17173. The main change is this: When inferring types, always return an instantiated type (for now, deeply instantiated; in future shallowly instantiated) There is more discussion in https://www.tweag.io/posts/2020-04-02-lazy-eager-instantiation.html There is quite a bit of refactoring in this patch: * The ir_inst field of GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType.InferResultk has entirely gone. So tcInferInst and tcInferNoInst have collapsed into tcInfer. * Type inference of applications, via tcInferApp and tcInferAppHead, are substantially refactored, preparing the way for Quick Look impredicativity. * New pure function GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr.collectHsArgs and applyHsArgs are beatifully dual. We can see the zipper! * GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr.tcArgs is now much nicer; no longer needs to return a wrapper * In HsExpr, HsTypeApp now contains the the actual type argument, and is used in desugaring, rather than putting it in a mysterious wrapper. * I struggled a bit with good error reporting in Unify.matchActualFunTysPart. It's a little bit simpler than before, but still not great. Some smaller things * Rename tcPolyExpr --> tcCheckExpr tcMonoExpr --> tcLExpr * tcPatSig moves from GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType to GHC.Tc.Gen.Pat Metric Decrease: T9961 Reduction of 1.6% in comiler allocation on T9961, I think.
