Issue #24279 showed up a bug in the logic in GHC.Core.Unify.unify_ty which is supposed to make TYPE and CONSTRAINT be not-apart. Easily fixed.

Earlier, we used to pass all preprocessor flags to the c++ compiler. This meant that -DPROFILING was passed to the c++ compiler because it was a part of C++ flags However, this was incorrect and the behaviour was changed in 8ff3134e. See #21291. But that commit exposed this bug where -DPROFILING was no longer being passed when compiling c++ sources. The fix is to explicitly include -DPROFILING in `opt_cxx` when profiling is enabled to ensure we pass the correct options for the way to both C and C++ compilers Fixes #24286

This also removes Note [Void arguments in self-recursive tail calls], which was just misleading. It's important to count void args both in the function's arity and at the call site. Fixes #24295.

This introduces data PrimOrVoidRep = VoidRep | NVRep PrimRep changes typePrimRep1 to return PrimOrVoidRep, and adds a new function typePrimRepU to be used when the argument is definitely non-void. Details in Note [VoidRep] in GHC.Types.RepType. Fixes #19520

* In GHC.StgToByteCode, replace bcIdPrimId with idPrimRep, bcIdArgRep with idArgRep, atomPrimRep with stgArgRep1. All of them were duplicates. * In GHC.Stg.Unarise, we were converting a PrimRep to a Type and back to PrimRep. Remove the calls to primRepToType and typePrimRep1 which cancel out. * In GHC.STG.Lint, GHC.StgToCmm, GHC.Types.RepType we were filtering out VoidRep from the result of typePrimRep. But typePrimRep never returns VoidRep - remove the filtering.

'go' inside extractSubTerms was giving a bad result given a VoidRep, attempting to round towards the next multiple of 0. I don't understand much about the debugger but the code should be better than it was. Fixes #24306

The function typePrimRepArgs is just a thin wrapper around typePrimRep, adding a VoidRep if the list is empty. However, in StgToByteCode, we were discarding that VoidRep anyway, so there's no point in calling it.

StgConApp stored a list of types. This list was used exclusively during unarisation of unboxed sums (mkUbxSum). However, this is at a wrong level of abstraction: STG shouldn't be concerned with Haskell types, only PrimReps. Update the code to store a [[PrimRep]]. Also, there's no point in storing this list when we're not dealing with an unboxed sum.

Previously the remaining use of the C implementation on 32-bit platforms resulted in a subtle bug, #24261. This was due to the C object (which used the RTS's `atomic_inc64` macro) being compiled without `-threaded` yet later being used in a threaded compiler. Side-step this issue by using the pure Haskell `genSym` implementation on all platforms. This required implementing `fetchAddWord64Addr#` in terms of CAS on 64-bit platforms.

Addresses #19278 This commit deprecates the underspecified -ddump-json flag and introduces a newer, well-specified flag -fdiagnostics-as-json. Also included is a JSON schema as part of the documentation. The -ddump-json flag will be slated for removal shortly after this merge.

In the end the bindist creation logic copies them all into the bin folder. There is no benefit to building a specific few binaries in the lib/bin folder anymore. This also removes the ad-hoc logic to copy the touchy and unlit executables from stage0 into stage1. It takes <1s to build so we might as well just build it.

Previously we attempted to ensure soundness of concurrent thunk update by synchronizing on the access of the thunk's info table pointer field. This was believed to be sufficient since the indirectee (which may expose a closure allocated by another core) would not be examined until the info table pointer update is complete. However, it turns out that this can result in data races in the presence of multiple threads racing a update a single thunk. For instance, consider this interleaving under the old scheme: Thread A Thread B --------- --------- t=0 Enter t 1 Push update frame 2 Begin evaluation 4 Pause thread 5 t.indirectee=tso 6 Release t.info=BLACKHOLE 7 ... (e.g. GC) 8 Resume thread 9 Finish evaluation 10 Relaxed t.indirectee=x 11 Load t.info 12 Acquire fence 13 Inspect t.indirectee 14 Release t.info=BLACKHOLE Here Thread A enters thunk `t` but is soon paused, resulting in `t` being lazily blackholed at t=6. Then, at t=10 Thread A finishes evaluation and updates `t.indirectee` with a relaxed store. Meanwhile, Thread B enters the blackhole. Under the old scheme this would introduce an acquire-fence but this would only synchronize with Thread A at t=6. Consequently, the result of the evaluation, `x`, is not visible to Thread B, introducing a data race. We fix this by treating the `indirectee` field as we do all other mutable fields. This means we must always access this field with acquire-loads and release-stores. See #23185.
