The libffi shipped with Apple's XCode toolchain does not contain a definition of the FFI_GO_CLOSURES macro, despite containing references to said macro. Work around this by defining the macro, following the model of a similar workaround in OpenJDK [1]. [1] https://github.com/openjdk/jdk17u-dev/pull/741/files

We used to choose flags to pass to the toolchain at runtime based on the platform running GHC, and in this commit we drop all of those runtime linker checks Ultimately, this represents a change in policy: We no longer adapt at runtime to the toolchain being used, but rather make final decisions about the toolchain used at /configure time/ (we have deleted Note [Run-time linker info] altogether!). This works towards the goal of having all toolchain configuration logic living in the same place, which facilities the work towards a runtime-retargetable GHC (see #19877). As of this commit, the runtime linker/compiler logic was moved to autoconf, but soon it, and the rest of the existing toolchain configuration logic, will live in the standalone ghc-toolchain program (see !9263) In particular, what used to be done at runtime is now as follows: * The flags -Wl,--no-as-needed for needed shared libs are configured into settings * The flag -fstack-check is configured into settings * The check for broken tables-next-to-code was outdated * We use the configured c compiler by default as the assembler program * We drop `asmOpts` because we already configure -Qunused-arguments flag into settings (see !10589) Fixes #23562 Co-author: Rodrigo Mesquita (@alt-romes)

Polymorphic specialisation has led to a number of hard to diagnose incorrect runtime result bugs (see #23469, #23109, #21229, #23445) so this commit introduces a flag `-fpolymorhphic-specialisation` which allows users to turn on this experimental optimisation if they are willing to buy into things going very wrong. Ticket #23469

The previous configuration script to test whether Ld supported response files was * Incorrect (see #23542) * Used, in practice, to check if the *merge objects tool* supported response files. This commit modifies the macro to run the merge objects tool (rather than Ld), using a response file, and checking the result with $NM Fixes #23542

The `'[]` case in `tc_infer_hs_type` is smart enough to handle arity-0 uses of `'[]` (see the newly added `T23543` test case for an example), but the `'[]` case in `tc_hs_type` was not. We fix this by changing the `tc_hs_type` case to invoke `tc_infer_hs_type`, as prescribed in `Note [Future-proofing the type checker]`. There are some benign changes to test cases' expected output due to the new code path using `forall a. [a]` as the kind of `'[]` rather than `[k]`. Fixes #23543.

Hadrian's `topDirectory` is intended to provide an absolute path to the root of the GHC tree. However, if the tree is reached via a symlink this One question here is whether the `canonicalizePath` call is expensive enough to warrant caching. In a quick microbenchmark I observed that `canonicalizePath "."` takes around 10us per call; this seems sufficiently low not to worry. Alternatively, another approach here would have been to rather move the canonicalization into `m4/fp_find_root.m4`. This would have avoided repeated canonicalization but sadly path canonicalization is a hard problem in POSIX shell. Addresses #22451.

There is a distinction to be made between the Haskell Preprocessor and the C preprocessor. The former is used to preprocess Haskell files, while the latter is used in C preprocessing such as Cmm files. In practice, they are both the same program (usually the C compiler) but invoked with different flags. Previously we would, at configure time, configure the haskell preprocessor and save the configuration in the settings file, but, instead of doing the same for CPP, we had hardcoded in GHC that the CPP program was either `cc -E` or `cpp`. This commit fixes that asymmetry by also configuring CPP at configure time, and tries to make more explicit the difference between HsCpp and Cpp (see Note [Preprocessing invocations]). Note that we don't use the standard CPP and CPPFLAGS to configure Cpp, but instead use the non-standard --with-cpp and --with-cpp-flags. The reason is that autoconf sets CPP to "$CC -E", whereas we expect the CPP command to be configured as a standalone executable rather than a command. These are symmetrical with --with-hs-cpp and --with-hs-cpp-flags. Cleanup: Hadrian no longer needs to pass the CPP configuration for CPP to be C99 compatible through -optP, since we now configure that into settings. Closes #23422

GHC has no direct dependence on the linker. Rather, we depend upon the C compiler for linking and an object-merging program (which is typically `ld`) for production of GHCi objects and merging of C stubs into final object files. Despite this, for historical reasons we still recorded information about the linker into `settings`. Remove these entries from `settings`, `hadrian/cfg/system.config`, as well as the `configure` logic responsible for this information. Closes #23566.

Tracking ticket: #23394 MR: !10448 * Add constructor `IfaceBreakpoint` to `IfaceTickish` * Store breakpoint data in interface files * Store `BreakArray` for the breakpoint's module, not the current module, in BCOs * Store module name in BCOs instead of `Unique`, since the `Unique` from an `Iface` doesn't match the modules in GHCi's state * Allocate module name in `ModBreaks`, like `BreakArray` * Lookup breakpoint by module name in GHCi * Skip creating breakpoint instructions when no `ModBreaks` are available, rather than injecting `ModBreaks` in the linker when breakpoints are enabled, and panicking when `ModBreaks` is missing

This (temporary) reverts commit 3e80c2b4. Fixes #23550

This makes it more obvious what you have to modify to affect the default template rather than looking in the project settings.

- thread knowledge about levity into PrimRep instead of panicking - JS: remove assumption that unlifted heap objects are rts objects (TVar#, etc.) Doing this also fixes #22291 (test added). There is a small performance hit (~1% more allocations). Metric Increase: T18698a T18698b

Bytecode instructions like PUSH_L (push a local variable) contain an operand that refers to the stack slot. Before this patch, the operand type was SmallOp (Word16), limiting the maximum stack offset to 65535 words. This could cause compiler panics in some cases (See #22888). This patch changes the operand type for stack offsets from SmallOp to Op, removing the stack offset limit. Fixes #22888

Darwin's toolchain inexpliciably claims that `write_barrier` and friends have declarations without prototypes, despite the fact that (a) they are definitions, and (b) the prototypes appear only a few lines above. Work around this by making the definitions proper prototypes.

Bumps Haddock submodule

This is an implementation of the deprecated exports proposal #134. The proposal introduces an ability to introduce warnings to exports. This allows for deprecating a name only when it is exported from a specific module, rather than always depreacting its usage. In this example: module A ({-# DEPRECATED "do not use" #-} x) where x = undefined --- module B where import A(x) `x` will emit a warning when it is explicitly imported. Like the declaration warnings, export warnings are first accumulated within the `Warnings` struct, then passed into the ModIface, from which they are then looked up and warned about in the importing module in the `lookup_ie` helpers of the `filterImports` function (for the explicitly imported names) and in the `addUsedGRE(s)` functions where they warn about regular usages of the imported name. In terms of the AST information, the custom warning is stored in the extension field of the variants of the `IE` type (see Trees that Grow for more information). The commit includes a bump to the haddock submodule added in MR #28 Signed-off-by:
