glibc 2.30 disallowed dlopening PIE objects, so just remove the test. Fixes #17952.

As far as GHC is concerned, installed package components ("units") are identified by an opaque ComponentId string provided by Cabal. But we don't want to display it to users (as it contains a hash) so GHC queries the database to retrieve some infos about the original source package (name, version, component name). This patch caches these infos in the ComponentId itself so that we don't need to provide DynFlags (which contains installed package informations) to print a ComponentId. In the future we want GHC to support several independent package states (e.g. for plugins and for target code), hence we need to avoid implicitly querying a single global package state. -
Due to #17945.

Fix missing quoting and expected exit code.

Fixes line ending normalization issue.

Ticket #17932 showed that we were using a stupid demand for the RHS of a let-binding, when the result is a product. This was the result of a "fix" in 2013, which (happily) turns out to no longer be necessary. So I just deleted the code, which simplifies the demand analyser, and fixes #17932. That in turn uncovered that the anticipation of worker/wrapper in CPR analysis was inaccurate, hence the logic that decides whether to unbox an argument in WW was extracted into a function `wantToUnbox`, now consulted by CPR analysis. I tried nofib, and got 0.0% perf changes. All this came up when messing about with !2873 (ticket #17917), but is idependent of it. Unfortunately, this patch regresses #4267 and realised that it is now blocked on #16335.

Summary: - There is no more use of the TABLES_NEXT_TO_CODE CPP macro in `compiler/`. GHCI_TABLES_NEXT_TO_CODE is also removed entirely. The field within `PlatformMisc` within `DynFlags` is used instead. - The field is still not exposed as a CLI flag. We might consider some way to ensure the right RTS / libraries are used before doing that.

Factor out CPP as much as possible to prepare for runtime determinattion. Progress towards #15548

This change adds an optional example. Tracking: #17929

This change removes an extra '|' that should not be rendered in the liftA documentation. Tracking: #17929

Use Platform instead of DynFlags when possible: * `tARGET_MIN_INT` et al. replaced with `platformMinInt` et al. * no more DynFlags in PreRules: added a new `RuleOpts` datatype * don't use `wORD_SIZE` in the compiler * make `wordAlignment` use `Platform` * make `dOUBLE_SIZE` a constant Metric Decrease: T13035 T1969 -

They seem to be a benchmarking vestige of the Cardinality paper and probably shouldn't have been merged to HEAD in the first place.

- Provide the export list of the `Main` module as parameter to the `compiler/typecheck/TcRnDriver.hs:check_main` function. - Instead of `lookupOccRn_maybe` call the function `lookupInfoOccRn`. It returns the list `mains_all` of all the main functions in scope. - Select from this list `mains_all` all `main` functions that are in the export list of the `Main` module. - If this new list contains exactly one single `main` function, then typechecking continues. - Otherwise issue an appropriate error message.

A previous fix for #15344 made sure that monadic 'fail' is used properly when translating ApplicativeDo. However, it didn't properly account for when a 'fail' will be inserted which resulted in some programs failing with a type error.

This typo caused generating 'end' events without the corresponding 'begin' events.

Key changes: * Adds a new rule for forall-coercions over coercion variables, which was implemented but conspicuously missing from the spec. * Adds treatment for FunCo. * Adds treatment for ForAllTy over coercion variables. * Improves commentary (including restoring a Note lost in 03d48526) in the source. No changes to running code.

Previously, if we had a [W] (a :: k1) ~ (rhs :: k2), we would spit out a [D] k1 ~ k2 and part the W as irreducible, hoping for a unification. But we needn't do this. Instead, we now spit out a [W] co :: k2 ~ k1 and then use co to cast the rhs of the original Wanted. This means that we retain the connection between the spat-out constraint and the original. The problem with this new approach is that we cannot use the casted equality for substitution; it's too like wanteds-rewriting- wanteds. So, we forbid CTyEqCans that mention coercion holes. All the details are in Note [Equalities with incompatible kinds] in TcCanonical. There are a few knock-on effects, documented where they occur. While debugging an error in this patch, Simon and I ran into infelicities in how patterns and matches are printed; we made small improvements. This patch includes mitigations for #17828, which causes spurious pattern-match warnings. When #17828 is fixed, these lines should be removed.

This read causes NULL dereferencing when len is 0. Fixes #17909 In the reproducer in #17909 this bug is triggered as follows: - SimplOpt.dealWithStringLiteral is called with a single-char string ("=" in #17909) - tailFS gets called on the FastString of the single-char string. - tailFS checks the length of the string, which is 1, and calls mkFastStringByteString on the tail of the ByteString, which is an empty ByteString as the original ByteString has only one char. - ByteString's unsafeUseAsCStringLen returns (NULL, 0) for the empty ByteString, which is passed to mkFastStringWith. - mkFastStringWith gets hash of the NULL pointer via hashStr, which fails on empty strings because of this bug. -

In #17911, Simon recognised many warnings stemming from over-long list unions while coverage checking Cabal's `LicenseId` module. This patch introduces a new `PmAltConSet` type which uses a `UniqDSet` instead of an association list for `ConLike`s. For `PmLit`s, it will still use an assocation list, though, because a similar map data structure would entail a lot of busy work. Fixes #17911.

The old entry had a heavy focus on how things had been. Which is not what I generally look for in a user guide. I also added a small section on behaviour of nested safe ffi calls. [skip-ci]
