Previously, GHC would typecheck the `via` type once per class in a `deriving` clause, which caused the problems observed in #16923. This patch restructures some of the functionality in `TcDeriv` and `TcHsType` to avoid this problem. We now typecheck the `via` type exactly once per `deriving` clause and *then* typecheck all of the classes in the clause. See `Note [Don't typecheck too much in DerivingVia]` in `TcDeriv` for the full details.

In particular we very often pass one empty list and in these cases we want to avoid the overhead of computing `xs ++ []`. This should fix #14759 and #16911.

The simple optimiser was making an invalid transformation to join points -- yikes. The fix is easy. I also added some documentation about the fact that GHC uses a slightly more restrictive version of join points than does the paper. Fix #16918

This documents some of the lore surrounding the nature and naming of GHC's stage numbers.
-
When `join_ids` is empty `extendVarSetList existing_joins join_ids` is already no-op, so no need to check whether `join_ids` is empty or not before extending the joins set.

- Rename requires_th to req_th for consistency with other req functions (e.g. req_interp, req_profiling etc.) - req_th (previously requires_th) now checks for interpreter (via req_interp). With this running TH tests are skipped when running the test suite with stage=1. - Test tweaks: - T9360a, T9360b: Use req_interp - recomp009, T13938, RAE_T32a: Use req_th - Fix check-makefiles linter: it now looks for Makefiles instead of .T files (which are actually Python files)

The first problem was that the list of files/dirs to embed or ignore was not up-to-date. The second problem was that the 'Cwd' option used when running the Tar builder in the source-dist rule didn't actually change the current directory and was therefore failing. Finally, the source-dist rule did not pre-generate Haskell modules derived from .x (alex) and .y (happy) files, like the Make build system does -- this is now fixed. We might be doing too much work for that last step (we seem to be building many things until we get to generating the source distribution), but extracting the distribution and running ./configure && hadrian/build.sh --flavour=quickest -j from there does work for me now.

They take the general form `foo.bar.baz [+]= some values`, where `=` completely overrides the arguments for a builder and `+=` extends them. We currenly only support settings for updating the GHC and C compiler options, of the form: ``` {stage0, ..., stage3 or *}.{package name or *} .ghc.{c, hs, link, deps, toolargs or *}.opts {stage0, ..., stage3 or *}.{package name or *} .cc.{c, deps or *}.opts ``` The supported settings and their use is covered in the new section of `hadrian/doc/user-settings.md`, while the implementation is explained in a new Note [Hadrian settings]. Most of the logic is implemented in a new module, `Settings.Parser`, which contains key-value assignment/extension parsers as well as utilities for specifying allowed settings at a high-level, generating a `Predicate` from such a description or generating the list of possible completions for a given string. The additions to the `Settings` module make use of this to describe the settings that Hadrian currently supports, and apply all such key-value settings (from the command line and `<root>/hadrian.settings`) to the flavour that Hadrian is going to proceed with. This new setting system comes with support for generating Bash completions, implemented in `hadrian/completion.sh` and Hadrian's `autocomplete` target: > source hadrian/completion.sh > hadrian/build.sh stage1.base.ghc.<TAB> stage1.base.ghc.c.opts stage1.base.ghc.hs.opts stage1.base.ghc.*.opts stage1.base.ghc.deps.opts stage1.base.ghc.link.opts stage1.base.ghc.toolargs.opts

Renames performance metrics to include whether they are compile-time or runtime metrics.

The code, including the generated module with the version, is now in ghc-boot. Config.hs reexports stuff as needed, ghc-pkg doesn't need any tricks at all.

These prevent multi-target builds. They were gotten rid of in 3 ways: 1. In the compiler itself, replacing `#if` with runtime `if`. In these cases, we care about the target platform still, but the target platform is dynamic so we must delay the elimination to run time. 2. In the compiler itself, replacing `TARGET` with `HOST`. There was just one bit of this, in some code splitting strings representing lists of paths. These paths are used by GHC itself, and not by the compiled binary. (They are compiler lookup paths, rather than RPATHS or something that does matter to the compiled binary, and thus would legitamentally be target-sensative.) As such, the path-splitting method only depends on where GHC runs and not where code it produces runs. This should have been `HOST` all along. 3. Changing the RTS. The RTS doesn't care about the target platform, full stop. 4. `includes/stg/HaskellMachRegs.h` This file is also included in the genapply executable. This is tricky because the RTS's host platform really is that utility's target platform. so that utility really really isn't multi-target either. But at least it isn't an installed part of GHC, but just a one-off tool when building the RTS. Lying with the `HOST` to a one-off program (genapply) that isn't installed doesn't seem so bad. It's certainly better than the other way around of lying to the RTS though not to genapply. The RTS is more important, and it is installed, *and* this header is installed as part of the RTS.

If the union of dependencies of imported modules change, the `mi_deps` field of the interface files should change as well. Because of that, we need to check for changes in this in recompilation checker which we are not doing right now. This adds a checks for that.

To avoid having to `panic` any time a TTG extension constructor is consumed, this MR introduces an uninhabited 'NoExtCon' type and uses that in every extension constructor's type family instance where it is appropriate. This also introduces a 'noExtCon' function which eliminates a 'NoExtCon', much like 'Data.Void.absurd' eliminates a 'Void'. I also renamed the existing `NoExt` type to `NoExtField` to better distinguish it from `NoExtCon`. Unsurprisingly, there is a lot of code churn resulting from this. Bumps the Haddock submodule. Fixes #15247.

This is important as in hard link mode shake makes all such files read only to avoid accidentally modifying cache files via the hard link. It turns out, many Hadrian rules attempt read access to such files and hence fail in the hard link mode. These rules could be refactored to avoid write access, but using copy instead of hard link a much simpler solution.

Attach the `SrcSpan` of the first pattern synonym binding involved in the recursive group when throwing the corresponding error message, similarly to how it is done for type synonyms. Fixes #16900.

The relative URLs were a workaround to let most contributors fork from Github due to a weakness in the haskell.org server. This workaround is no longer needed. And relative submodule URLs are an impediment to forking which makes contributions harder than they should be. The URLs are chosen to clone from https, because this makes sure that anybody, even not a registered Gitlab user, can clone a fork recursively.

Adds stripStgTicksTopE which only returns the stripped expression. So far we also allocated a list for the stripped ticks which was never used. Allocation difference is as expected very small but present. About 0.02% difference when compiling with -O.

Ticket #16247 showed that we were discarding an implication constraint that had empty ic_wanted, when we still needed to keep it so we could check whether it had a bad telescope. Happily it's a one line fix. All the rest is comments!

In dumpCensus we switch/case on doHeapProfile twice. The second switch tries to barf on unknown doHeapProfile modes but HEAP_BY_CLOSURE_TYPE is checked by the first switch and not included in the second. So when trying to pass -hT to the profiling rts it barfs. This commit simply merges the two switches into one which fixes this problem.

In the eager unifier, when unifying (tv1 ~ tv2), when we decide to swap them over, to unify (tv2 ~ tv1), I'd forgotten to ensure that tv1's kind was fully zonked, which is an invariant of uUnfilledTyVar2. That could lead us to build an infinite kind, or (in the case of #16902) update the same unification variable twice. Yikes. Now we get an error message rather than non-termination, which is much better. The error message is not great, but it's a very strange program, and I can't see an easy way to improve it, so for now I'm just committing this fix. Here's the decl data F (a :: k) :: (a ~~ k) => Type where MkF :: F a and the rather error message of which I am not proud T16902.hs:11:10: error: • Expected a type, but found something with kind ‘a1’ • In the type ‘F a’

Before this refactoring: * DerivInfo for data family instances was returned from tcTyAndClassDecls * DerivInfo for data declarations was generated with mkDerivInfos and added at a later stage of the pipeline in tcInstDeclsDeriv After this refactoring: * DerivInfo for both data family instances and data declarations is returned from tcTyAndClassDecls in a single list. This uniform treatment results in a more convenient arrangement to fix #16731.

Commit cef80c0b debuted a breaking change to `template-haskell`, so in order to guard against it properly with CPP, we need to bump the `template-haskell` version number accordingly.

Previously we used the deb9-debug job which used the `validate` build flavour which disabled `BUILD_SPHINX_PDF`. Fix this. Fixes #16890.
