#14060 by more conservatively annotating TH-reified types
Ryan Scott
authored
Before, TH was quite generous in applying kind annotations to reified type constructors whose result kind happened to mention type variables. This could result in agonizingly large reified types, so this patch aims to quell this a bit by adopting a more nuanced algorithm for determining when a tycon application deserves a kind annotation. This implements the algorithm laid out in https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14060#comment:1. I've updated `Note [Kind annotations on TyConApps]` to reflect the new wisdom. Essentially, instead of only checking if the result kind contains free variables, we also check if any of those variables do not appear free in injective positions in the argument kinds—only then do we put on a kind annotation. Bumps `haddock` submodule.
