Aside from making the generated code easier to read when `-ddump-deriv` is enabled, this makes the error message in `T15073` substantially simpler (see the updated `T15073` expected stderr). Fixes #17899.

Previously sparks living in the non-moving heap would be promptly GC'd by the minor collector since pruneSparkQueue uses the BF_EVACUATED flag, which non-moving heap blocks do not have set. Fix this by implementing proper support in pruneSparkQueue for determining reachability in the non-moving heap. The story is told in Note [Spark management in the nonmoving heap].

If ImpredicativeTypes is not enabled, then `:print <term>` will fail if the type of <term> has nested `forall`s or `=>`s. This is because the GHCi debugger's internals will attempt to unify a metavariable with the type of <term> and then display the result, but if the type has nested `forall`s or `=>`s, then unification will fail. As a result, `:print` will bail out and the unhelpful result will be `<term> = (_t1::t1)` (where `t1` is a metavariable). Beware: <term> can have nested `forall`s even if its definition doesn't use RankNTypes! Here is an example from #14828: class Functor f where fmap :: (a -> b) -> f a -> f b Somewhat surprisingly, `:print fmap` considers the type of fmap to have nested foralls. This is because the GHCi debugger sees the type `fmap :: forall f. Functor f => forall a b. (a -> b) -> f a -> f b`. We could envision deeply instantiating this type to get the type `forall f a b. Functor f => (a -> b) -> f a -> f b`, but this trick wouldn't work for higher-rank types. Instead, we adopt a simpler fix: enable `ImpredicativeTypes` when using `:print` and friends in the GHCi debugger. This is allows metavariables to unify with types that have nested (or higher-rank) `forall`s/`=>`s, which makes `:print fmap` display as `fmap = (_t1::forall a b. Functor f => (a -> b) -> f a -> f b)`, as expected. Although ImpredicativeTypes is a somewhat unpredictable from a type inference perspective, there is no danger in using it in the GHCi debugger, since all of the terms that the GHCi debugger deals with have already been typechecked. -
Do not define hs_atomicread64() and hs_atomicwrite64() on machines where WORD_SIZE_IN_BITS is less than 64, just like we do with the rest of the atomic functions which work on 64-bit values. Without this, compilation fails on MIPSel and PowerPC with the following error: /usr/bin/ld: /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/libHSghc-prim-0.5.3_p.a(atomic.p_o): in function `hs_atomicread64': atomic.c:(.text.hs_atomicread64+0x8): undefined reference to `__sync_add_and_fetch_8' /usr/bin/ld: /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/libHSghc-prim-0.5.3_p.a(atomic.p_o): in function `hs_atomicwrite64': atomic.c:(.text.hs_atomicwrite64+0x38): undefined reference to `__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_8' Fixes #17886.

GHCi is split up into 2 major parts: The user-interface (UI) and the byte-code interpreter. With `-fexternal-interpreter` they even run in different processes. Communication between the UI and the Interpreter (called `iserv`) is done using messages over a pipe. This is called `Remote GHCI` and explained in the Note [Remote GHCi] in `compiler/ghci/GHCi.hs`. To process a `:force` command the UI sends a `Seq` message to the `iserv` process. Then `iserv` does the effective evaluation of the value. When during this process a breakpoint is hit, the `iserv` process has no additional information to enhance the `Ignoring breakpoint` output with the breakpoint location. To be able to print additional breakpoint information, there are 2 possible implementation choices: 1. Store the needed information in the `iserv` process. 2. Print the `Ignoring breakpoint` from the UI process. For option 1 we need to store the breakpoint info redundantely in 2 places and this is bad. Therfore option 2 was implemented in this MR: - The user enters a `force` command - The UI sends a `Seq` message to the `iserv` process. - If processing of the `Seq` message hits a breakpoint, the `iserv` process returns control to the UI process. - The UI looks up the source location of the breakpoint, and prints the enhanced `Ignoring breakpoint` output. - The UI sends a `ResumeSeq` message to the `iserv` process, to continue forcing.

IfaceIdInfo type is confusing: there's practically no difference between `NoInfo` and `HasInfo []`. The comments say NoInfo is used when -fomit-interface-pragmas is enabled, but we don't need to distinguish `NoInfo` from `HasInfo []` in when reading the interface so the distinction is not important. This patch simplifies the type by removing NoInfo. When we have no info we use an empty list. With this change we no longer read the info list lazily when reading an IfaceInfoItem, but when reading an IfaceId the ifIdInfo field is read lazily, so I doubt this is going to be a problem.

In #14335 we want to be able to use both the internal interpreter (for the plugins) and the external interpreter (for TH and GHCi) at the same time. This patch performs some preliminary refactoring: the `hsc_interp` field of HscEnv replaces `hsc_iserv` and is now used to indicate which interpreter (internal, external) to use to execute TH and GHCi. Opt_ExternalInterpreter flag and iserv options in DynFlags are now queried only when we set the session DynFlags. It should help making GHC multi-target in the future by selecting an interpreter according to the selected target.

loadInterface replaces the `mi_decls`, `mi_insts`, `mi_fam_insts`, `mi_rules`, `mi_anns` fields of ModIface with `undefined` before inserting the interface into the EPS. However, we still want to give loadInterface plugins access to these fields. Consequently, we want to pass the unmodified `ModIface` the plugin.

When GHC is parsing a file generated by a tool, e.g. by the C preprocessor, the tool may insert #line pragmas to adjust the locations reported to the user. As the result, the locations recorded in RealSrcLoc are not monotonic. Elements that appear later in the StringBuffer are not guaranteed to have a higher line/column number. In fact, there are no guarantees whatsoever, as #line pragmas can arbitrarily modify locations. This lack of guarantees makes ideas such as #17544 infeasible. This patch adds an additional bit of information to every SrcLoc: newtype BufPos = BufPos { bufPos :: Int } A BufPos represents the location in the StringBuffer, unaffected by any pragmas.

Previously we were tracing the object we were asked to mark, even if it lives in a compact region. However, there is no need to do this; we need only to mark the region itself as live. I have seen a segfault due to this due to the concurrent mark seeing a an object in the process of being compacted by the mutator.

Previously, we used relative paths in submodules. When cloning from GitHub, they had to be manually tweaked. Since a76b233d we use absolute paths, so this workaround can be removed.

Consider ```hs data T = A | B | C f :: T -> Int f A = 1 f x = case x of A -> 2 B -> 3 C -> 4 ``` Clearly, the RHS returning 2 is redundant. But we don't currently see that, because our approximation to the covered set of the inner case expression just picks up the positive information from surrounding pattern matches. It lacks the context sensivity that `x` can't be `A` anymore! Therefore, we adopt the conceptually and practically superior approach of reusing the covered set of a particular GRHS from an outer pattern match. In this case, we begin checking the `case` expression with the covered set of `f`s second clause, which encodes the information that `x` can't be `A` anymore. After this MR, we will successfully warn about the RHS returning 2 being redundant. Perhaps surprisingly, this was a great simplification to the code of both the coverage checker and the desugarer. Found a redundant case alternative in `unix` submodule, so we have to bump it with a fix. Metric Decrease: T12227
