Support linking C sources with JS output of the JavaScript backend. See the added documentation in the users guide. The implementation simply extends the JS linker to use the objects (.o) that were already produced by the emcc compiler and which were filtered out previously. I've also added some options to control the link with C functions (see the documentation about pragmas). With this change I've successfully compiled the direct-sqlite package which embeds the sqlite.c database code. Some wrappers are still required (see the documentation about wrappers) but everything generic enough to be reused for other libraries have been integrated into rts/js/mem.js.
-
This isn't implemented for JS backend objects.
-
Some Haskell codes unsafely cast StablePtr into ptr to compare against NULL. E.g. in direct-sqlite: if castStablePtrToPtr aggStPtr /= nullPtr then where `aggStPtr` is read (`peek`) from zeroed memory initially. We fix this by giving these StablePtr the same representation as other null pointers. It's safe because StablePtr at offset 0 is unused (for this exact reason).

The eras profiling mode is useful for tracking the life-time of closures. When a closure is written, the current era is recorded in the profiling header. This records the era in which the closure was created. * Enable with -he * User mode: Use functions ghc-experimental module GHC.Profiling.Eras to modify the era * Automatically: --automatic-era-increment, increases the user era on major collections * The first era is era 1 * -he<era> can be used with other profiling modes to select a specific era If you just want to record the era but not to perform heap profiling you can use `-he --no-automatic-heap-samples`. https://well-typed.com/blog/2024/01/ghc-eras-profiling/ Fixes #24332

Per #23966, I want the top-level configure to only generate configuration data for Hadrian, not do any "real" tasks on its own. This is part of that effort --- one less file generated by it. (It is still done with a `.in` file, so in a future world non-Hadrian also can easily create this file.) Split modules: - GHC.CmmToLlvm.Config - GHC.CmmToLlvm.Version - GHC.CmmToLlvm.Version.Bounds - GHC.CmmToLlvm.Version.Type This also means we can get rid of the silly `unused.h` introduced in !6803 / 7dfcab2f as temporary kludge. Part of #23966

This is mainly experimental and future proofing to enable a smooth transition to newer alpine releases once 3_12 is too old.

There are situations where LLVM will produce assembly which older gcc toolchains can't handle. For example on Deb10, it seems that LLVM >= 13 produces assembly which the default gcc doesn't support. A more robust solution in the long term is to require a specific LLVM compatible assembler when using -fllvm. Fixes #16354

Required bumps of the following submodules: * `directory` * `filepath` * `haskeline` * `process` * `unix` * `hsc2hs` * `Win32` * `semaphore-compat` and the addition of `os-string` as a boot package.
-
When constructing the GHC flags for a package Hadrian must take care to set `-this-package-name` in addition to `-this-unit-id`. This hasn't broken until now as we have not had any uses of qualified package imports. However, this will change with `filepath-1.5` and the corresponding `unix` bump, breaking `hadrian/multi-ghci`.

-
Introduces `os-string` submodule. This will be necessary for `filepath-1.5`.

Rewrite the `HasHaddock` instance for `ConDecl GhcPs` to account for infix constructors. This change fixes a Haddock regression (introduced in 19e80b9a) that affected leading comments on infix data constructor declarations: -- | Docs for infix constructor | Int :* Bool The comment should be associated with the data constructor (:*), not with its left-hand side Int.

Here we move a good deal of the implementation of `base` into a new package, `ghc-internal` such that it can be evolved independently from the user-visible interfaces of `base`. While we want to isolate implementation from interfaces, naturally, we would like to avoid turning `base` into a mere set of module re-exports. However, this is a non-trivial undertaking for a variety of reasons: * `base` contains numerous known-key and wired-in things, requiring corresponding changes in the compiler * `base` contains a significant amount of C code and corresponding autoconf logic, which is very fragile and difficult to break apart * `base` has numerous import cycles, which are currently dealt with via carefully balanced `hs-boot` files * We must not break existing users To accomplish this migration, I tried the following approaches: * [Split-GHC.Base]: Break apart the GHC.Base knot to allow incremental migration of modules into ghc-internal: this knot is simply too intertwined to be easily pulled apart, especially given the rather tricky import cycles that it contains) * [Move-Core]: Moving the "core" connected component of base (roughly 150 modules) into ghc-internal. While the Haskell side of this seems tractable, the C dependencies are very subtle to break apart. * [Move-Incrementally]: 1. Move all of base into ghc-internal 2. Examine the module structure and begin moving obvious modules (e.g. leaves of the import graph) back into base 3. Examine the modules remaining in ghc-internal, refactor as necessary to facilitate further moves 4. Go to (2) iterate until the cost/benefit of further moves is insufficient to justify continuing 5. Rename the modules moved into ghc-internal to ensure that they don't overlap with those in base 6. For each module moved into ghc-internal, add a shim module to base with the declarations which should be exposed and any requisite Haddocks (thus guaranteeing that base will be insulated from changes in the export lists of modules in ghc-internal Here I am using the [Move-Incrementally] approach, which is empirically the least painful of the unpleasant options above Bumps haddock submodule.

This logic appears to be incorrect as it would drop any dependency which was not in a direct dependency of the package being linked. In the ghc-internals split this started to cause errors because `ghc-internal` is not a direct dependency of most packages, and hence important symbols to keep which are hard coded into the js runtime were getting dropped.

Modifying the timeout multiplier is not a robust way to get this test to reliably fail. Therefore we mark it as fragile until/if javascript ever supports the stack limit.

Instead we were setting CONF_GCC_LINK_OPTS_STAGE2 which meant that we were missing passing `--target` when invoking the linker. Fixes #24414

In cdddeb0f, we set up a workaround for #24324 in the in-tree configure script, but forgot to update the bindist configure script accordingly. This updates it.

In b5213542 the testsuite gained the capability to collect generic metrics. But this assumed that the test was not linking and producing artifacts and we only wanted to track object files, interface files, or build artifacts from the compiler build. However, some backends, such as the JS backend, produce artifacts when compiling, such as the jsexe directory which we want to track. This patch: - tweaks the testsuite to collect generic metrics on any build artifact in the test directory. - expands the exe_extension function to consider windows and adds the ignore_extension flag. - Modifies certain tests to add the ignore_extension flag. Tests such as heaprof002 expect a .ps file, but on windows without ignore_extensions the testsuite will look for foo.exe.ps. Hence the flag. - adds the size_hello_artifact test

This fixes a bug in 8db8d2fd, where we could lose track of acyclic components at the start of an unresolved cycle. We now ensure we never loose track of any of these components. As T24275 demonstrates, a "cyclic" SCC might not really be a true SCC: When viewed without boot files, we have a single SCC ``` [REC main:T24275B [main:T24275B {-# SOURCE #-}, main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}] main:T24275A [main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}]] ``` But with boot files this turns into ``` [NONREC main:T24275B {-# SOURCE #-} [], REC main:T24275B [main:T24275B {-# SOURCE #-}, main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}] main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-} [main:T24275B], NONREC main:T24275A [main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}]] ``` Note that this is truly not an SCC, as no nodes are reachable from T24275B.hs-boot. However, we treat this entire group as a single "SCC" because it seems so when we analyse the graph without taking boot files into account. Indeed, we must return a single ResolvedCycle element in the BuildPlan for this as described in Note [Upsweep]. However, since after resolving this is not a true SCC anymore, `findCycle` fails to find a cycle and we have a sub-optimal error message as a result. To handle this, I extended `findCycle` to not assume its input is an SCC, and to try harder to find cycles in its input. Fixes #24275

This patch is a preparation for @a-binders implementation. The main changes are: * Skolemisation is now prepared to deal with @binders. See Note [Skolemisation overview] in GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify. Most of the action is in - Utils.Unify.matchExpectedFunTys - Gen.Pat.tcMatchPats - Gen.Expr.tcPolyExprCheck - Gen.Binds.tcPolyCheck Some accompanying refactoring: * I found that funTyConAppTy_maybe was doing a lot of allocation, and rejigged userTypeError_maybe to avoid calling it. -
* Make HsMatchContext and HsStmtContext be parameterised over the function name itself, rather than over the pass. See [mc_fun field of FunRhs] in Language.Haskell.Syntax.Expr - Replace types HsMatchContext GhcPs --> HsMatchContextPs HsMatchContext GhcRn --> HsMatchContextRn HsMatchContext GhcTc --> HsMatchContextRn (sic! not Tc) HsStmtContext GhcRn --> HsStmtContextRn - Kill off convertHsMatchCtxt * Split GHC.Tc.Type.BasicTypes.TcSigInfo so that TcCompleteSig (describing a complete user-supplied signature) is its own data type. - Split TcIdSigInfo(CompleteSig, PartialSig) into TcCompleteSig(CSig) TcPartialSig(PSig) - Use TcCompleteSig in tcPolyCheck, CheckGen - Rename types and data constructors: TcIdSigInfo --> TcIdSig TcPatSynInfo(TPSI) --> TcPatSynSig(PatSig) - Shuffle around helper functions: tcSigInfoName (moved to GHC.Tc.Types.BasicTypes) completeSigPolyId_maybe (moved to GHC.Tc.Types.BasicTypes) tcIdSigName (inlined and removed) tcIdSigLoc (introduced) - Rearrange the pattern match in chooseInferredQuantifiers * Rename functions and types: tcMatchesCase --> tcCaseMatches tcMatchesFun --> tcFunBindMatches tcMatchLambda --> tcLambdaMatches tcPats --> tcMatchPats matchActualFunTysRho --> matchActualFunTys matchActualFunTySigma --> matchActualFunTy * Add HasDebugCallStack constraints to: mkBigCoreVarTupTy, mkBigCoreTupTy, boxTy, mkPiTy, mkPiTys, splitAppTys, splitTyConAppNoView_maybe * Use `penv` from the outer context in the inner loop of GHC.Tc.Gen.Pat.tcMultiple * Move tcMkVisFunTy, tcMkInvisFunTy, tcMkScaledFunTys down the file, factor out and export tcMkScaledFunTy. * Move isPatSigCtxt down the file. * Formatting and comments Co-authored-by:Vladislav Zavialov <vlad.z.4096@gmail.com>

This MR fixes #24251. See Note [Case-to-let for strictly-used binders] in GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Iteration, plus #24251, for lots of discussion. Final Nofib changes over 0.1%: +----------------------------------------- | imaginary/digits-of-e2 -2.16% | imaginary/rfib -0.15% | real/fluid -0.10% | real/gamteb -1.47% | real/gg -0.20% | real/maillist +0.19% | real/pic -0.23% | real/scs -0.43% | shootout/n-body -0.41% | shootout/spectral-norm -0.12% +======================================== | geom mean -0.05% Pleasingly, overall executable size is down by just over 1%. Compile times (in perf/compiler) wobble around a bit +/- 0.5%, but the geometric mean is -0.1% which seems good.
