* Reimplement Stream in "yoneda" style for efficiencyMatthew Pickering2021-02-261-78/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'Stream' is implemented in the "yoneda" style for efficiency. By representing a stream in this manner 'fmap' and '>>=' operations are accumulated in the function parameters before being applied once when the stream is destroyed. In the old implementation each usage of 'mapM' and '>>=' would traverse the entire stream in order to apply the substitution at the leaves. It is well-known for free monads that this representation can improve performance, and the test results demonstrate this for GHC as well. The operation mapAccumL is not used in the compiler and can't be implemented efficiently because it requires destroying and rebuilding the stream. I removed one use of mapAccumL_ which has similar problems but the other use was difficult to remove. In the future it may be worth exploring whether the 'Stream' encoding could be modified further to capture the mapAccumL pattern, and likewise defer the passing of accumulation parameter until the stream is finally consumed. The >>= operation for 'Stream' was a hot-spot in the ticky profile for the "ManyConstructors" test which called the 'cg' function many times in "StgToCmm.hs" Metric Decrease: ManyConstructors

* UnVarGraph: Improve asymptoticsBen Gamari2021-02-171-30/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a redesign of the UnVarGraph data structure used by the call arity analysis to avoid the pathologically-poor performance observed in issue #18789. Specifically, deletions were previously O(n) in the case of graphs consisting of many complete (bipartite) sub-graphs. Together with the nature of call arity this would produce quadratic behavior. We now encode deletions specifically, taking care to do some light normalization of empty structures. In the case of the `Network.AWS.EC2.Types.Sum` module from #19203, this brings the runtime of the call-arity analysis from over 50 seconds down to less than 2 seconds. Metric Decrease: T15164 WWRec

* Refactor LoggerSylvain Henry2021-02-131-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, the only way to override GHC's default logging behavior was to set `log_action`, `dump_action` and `trace_action` fields in DynFlags. This patch introduces a new Logger abstraction and stores it in HscEnv instead. This is part of #17957 (avoid storing state in DynFlags). DynFlags are duplicated and updated per-module (because of OPTIONS_GHC pragma), so we shouldn't store global state in them. This patch also fixes a race in parallel "--make" mode which updated the `generatedDumps` IORef concurrently. Bump haddock submodule The increase in MultilayerModules is tracked in #19293.

* Ppr: compute length of string literals at compile time (#19266)Sylvain Henry2021-01-291-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SDoc string literals created for example with `text "xyz"` are converted into `PtrString` (`Addr#` + size in bytes) with a rewrite rule to avoid allocating a String. Before this patch, the size in bytes was still computed at runtime. For every literal, we obtained the following pseudo STG: x :: Addr# x = "xzy"# s :: PtrString s = \u [] case ffi:strlen [x realWorld#] of (# _, sz #) -> PtrString [x sz] But since GHC 9.0, we can use `cstringLength#` instead to get: x :: Addr# x = "xzy"# s :: PtrString s = PtrString! [x 3#] Literals become statically known constructor applications. Allocations seem to decrease a little in perf tests (between -0.1% and -0.7% on CI).

* Put hole instantiation typechecking in the module graph and fix driver batch ↵John Ericson2020-12-281-1/+4

Before this change, it worked that `tcRnInstantiateSignature` was called after typechecking the argument module, see `HscMain.hsc_typecheck`, while `tcRnCheckUnit` was called in `unsweep'` where-bound in `GhcMake.upsweep`. `tcRnCheckUnit` was called once per each instantiation once all the argument sigs were processed. This was done with simple "to do" and "already done" accumulators in the fold. `parUpsweep` did not implement the change. With this change, `tcRnCheckUnit` instead is associated with its own node in the `ModuleGraph`. Nodes are now: ```haskell data ModuleGraphNode -- | Instantiation nodes track the instantiation of other units -- (backpack dependencies) with the holes (signatures) of the current package. = InstantiationNode InstantiatedUnit -- | There is a module summary node for each module, signature, and boot module being built. | ModuleNode ExtendedModSummary ``` instead of just `ModSummary`; the `InstantiationNode` case is the instantiation of a unit to be checked. The dependencies of such nodes are the same "free holes" as was checked with the accumulator before. Both versions of upsweep on such a node call `tcRnCheckUnit`. There previously was an `implicitRequirements` function which would crawl through every non-current-unit module dep to look for all free holes (signatures) to add as dependencies in `GHC.Driver.Make`. But this is no good: we shouldn't be looking for transitive anything when building the graph: the graph should only have immediate edges and the scheduler takes care that all transitive requirements are met. So `GHC.Driver.Make` stopped using `implicitRequirements`, and instead uses a new `implicitRequirementsShallow`, which just returns the outermost instantiation node (or module name if the immediate dependency is itself a signature). The signature dependencies are just treated like any other imported module, but the module ones then go in a list stored in the `ModuleNode` next to the `ModSummary` as the "extra backpack dependencies". When `downsweep` creates the mod summaries, it adds this information too. ------ There is one code quality, and possible correctness thing left: In addition to `implicitRequirements` there is `findExtraSigImports`, which says something like "if you are an instantiation argument (you are substituted or a signature), you need to import its things too". This is a little non-local so I am not quite sure how to get rid of it in `GHC.Driver.Make`, but we probably should eventually. First though, let's try to make a test case that observes that we don't do this, lest it actually be unneeded. Until then, I'm happy to leave it as is. ------ Beside the ability to use `-j`, the other major user-visibile side effect of this change is that that the --make progress log now includes "Instantiating" messages for these new nodes. Those also are numbered like module nodes and count towards the total. ------ Fixes #17188 Updates hackage submomdule Metric Increase: T12425 T13035
* Use mutable update to defer out-of-scope errorsRichard Eisenberg2020-12-251-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we let-bound an identifier to use to carry the erroring evidence for an out-of-scope variable. But this failed for levity-polymorphic out-of-scope variables, leading to a panic (#17812). The new plan is to use a mutable update to just write the erroring expression directly where it needs to go. Close #17812. Test case: typecheck/should_compile/T17812
* Remove flattening variablesRichard Eisenberg2020-12-013-7/+70
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch redesigns the flattener to simplify type family applications directly instead of using flattening meta-variables and skolems. The key new innovation is the CanEqLHS type and the new CEqCan constraint (Ct). A CanEqLHS is either a type variable or exactly-saturated type family application; either can now be rewritten using a CEqCan constraint in the inert set. Because the flattener no longer reduces all type family applications to variables, there was some performance degradation if a lengthy type family application is now flattened over and over (not making progress). To compensate, this patch contains some extra optimizations in the flattener, leading to a number of performance improvements. Close #18875. Close #18910. There are many extra parts of the compiler that had to be affected in writing this patch: * The family-application cache (formerly the flat-cache) sometimes stores coercions built from Given inerts. When these inerts get kicked out, we must kick out from the cache as well. (This was, I believe, true previously, but somehow never caused trouble.) Kicking out from the cache requires adding a filterTM function to TrieMap. * This patch obviates the need to distinguish "blocking" coercion holes from non-blocking ones (which, previously, arose from CFunEqCans). There is thus some simplification around coercion holes. * Extra commentary throughout parts of the code I read through, to preserve the knowledge I gained while working. * A change in the pure unifier around unifying skolems with other types. Unifying a skolem now leads to SurelyApart, not MaybeApart, as documented in Note [Binding when looking up instances] in GHC.Core.InstEnv. * Some more use of MCoercion where appropriate. * Previously, class-instance lookup automatically noticed that e.g. C Int was a "unifier" to a target [W] C (F Bool), because the F Bool was flattened to a variable. Now, a little more care must be taken around checking for unifying instances. * Previously, tcSplitTyConApp_maybe would split (Eq a => a). This is silly, because (=>) is not a tycon in Haskell. Fixed now, but there are some knock-on changes in e.g. TrieMap code and in the canonicaliser. * New function anyFreeVarsOf{Type,Co} to check whether a free variable satisfies a certain predicate. * Type synonyms now remember whether or not they are "forgetful"; a forgetful synonym drops at least one argument. This is useful when flattening; see flattenView. * The pattern-match completeness checker invokes the solver. This invocation might need to look through newtypes when checking representational equality. Thus, the desugarer needs to keep track of the in-scope variables to know what newtype constructors are in scope. I bet this bug was around before but never noticed. * Extra-constraints wildcards are no longer simplified before printing. See Note [Do not simplify ConstraintHoles] in GHC.Tc.Solver. * Whether or not there are Given equalities has become slightly subtler. See the new HasGivenEqs datatype. * Note [Type variable cycles in Givens] in GHC.Tc.Solver.Canonical explains a significant new wrinkle in the new approach. * See Note [What might match later?] in GHC.Tc.Solver.Interact, which explains the fix to #18910. * The inert_count field of InertCans wasn't actually used, so I removed it. Though I (Richard) did the implementation, Simon PJ was very involved in design and review. This updates the Haddock submodule to avoid #18932 by adding a type signature. ------------------------- Metric Decrease: T12227 T5030 T9872a T9872b T9872c Metric Increase: T9872d -------------------------
* Move core flattening algorithm to Core.UnifyRichard Eisenberg2020-12-011-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | This sets the stage for a later change, where this algorithm will be needed from GHC.Core.InstEnv. This commit also splits GHC.Core.Map into GHC.Core.Map.Type and GHC.Core.Map.Expr, in order to avoid module import cycles with GHC.Core.
* Refactor -dynamic-too handlingSylvain Henry2020-11-061-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Don't modify DynFlags (too much) for -dynamic-too: now when we generate dynamic outputs for "-dynamic-too", we only set "dynamicNow" boolean field in DynFlags instead of modifying several other fields. These fields now have accessors that take dynamicNow into account. 2) Use DynamicTooState ADT to represent -dynamic-too state. It's much clearer than the undocumented "DynamicTooConditional" that was used before. As a result, we can finally remove the hscs_iface_dflags field in HscRecomp. There was a comment on this field saying: "FIXME (osa): I don't understand why this is necessary, but I spent almost two days trying to figure this out and I couldn't .. perhaps someone who understands this code better will remove this later." I don't fully understand the details, but it was needed because of the changes made to the DynFlags for -dynamic-too. There is still something very dubious in GHC.Iface.Recomp: we have to disable the "dynamicNow" flag at some point for some Backpack's "heinous hack" to continue to work. It may be because interfaces for indefinite units are always non-dynamic, or because we mix and match dynamic and non-dynamic interfaces (#9176), or something else, who knows?

* PmCheck: Handle ⊥ and strict fields correctly (#18341)wip/T18341Sebastian Graf2020-09-101-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In #18341, we discovered an incorrect digression from Lower Your Guards. This MR changes what's necessary to support properly fixing #18341. In particular, bottomness constraints are now properly tracked in the oracle/inhabitation testing, as an additional field `vi_bot :: Maybe Bool` in `VarInfo`. That in turn allows us to model newtypes as advertised in the Appendix of LYG and fix #17725. Proper handling of ⊥ also fixes #17977 (once again) and fixes #18670. For some reason I couldn't follow, this also fixes #18273. I also added a couple of regression tests that were missing. Most of them were already fixed before. In summary, this patch fixes #18341, #17725, #18273, #17977 and #18670. Metric Decrease: T12227
* PmCheck: Big refactor using guard tree variants more closely following ↵Sebastian Graf2020-09-101-4/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | source syntax (#18565) Previously, we desugared and coverage checked plain guard trees as described in Lower Your Guards. That caused (in !3849) quite a bit of pain when we need to partially recover tree structure of the input syntax to return covered sets for long-distance information, for example. In this refactor, I introduced a guard tree variant for each relevant source syntax component of a pattern-match (mainly match groups, match, GRHS, empty case, pattern binding). I made sure to share as much coverage checking code as possible, so that the syntax-specific checking functions are just wrappers around the more substantial checking functions for the LYG primitives (`checkSequence`, `checkGrds`). The refactoring payed off in clearer code and elimination of all panics related to assumed guard tree structure and thus fixes #18565. I also took the liberty to rename and re-arrange the order of functions and comments in the module, deleted some dead and irrelevant Notes, wrote some new ones and gave an overview module haddock.
* Remove "Ord FastString" instanceSylvain Henry2020-09-011-18/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FastStrings can be compared in 2 ways: by Unique or lexically. We don't want to bless one particular way with an "Ord" instance because it leads to bugs (#18562) or to suboptimal code (e.g. using lexical comparison while a Unique comparison would suffice). UTF-8 encoding has the advantage that sorting strings by their encoded bytes also sorts them by their Unicode code points, without having to decode the actual code points. BUT GHC uses Modified UTF-8 which diverges from UTF-8 by encoding \0 as 0xC080 instead of 0x00 (to avoid null bytes in the middle of a String so that the string can still be null-terminated). This patch adds a new `utf8CompareShortByteString` function that performs sorting by bytes but that also takes Modified UTF-8 into account. It is much more performant than decoding the strings into [Char] to perform comparisons (which we did in the previous patch). Bump haddock submodule

* Give Uniq[D]FM a phantom type for its key.Andreas Klebinger2020-07-126-22/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes #17667 and should help to avoid such issues going forward. The changes are mostly mechanical in nature. With two notable exceptions. * The register allocator. The register allocator references registers by distinct uniques. However they come from the types of VirtualReg, Reg or Unique in various places. As a result we sometimes cast the key type of the map and use functions which operate on the now typed map but take a raw Unique as actual key. The logic itself has not changed it just becomes obvious where we do so now. * <Type>Env Modules. As an example a ClassEnv is currently queried using the types `Class`, `Name`, and `TyCon`. This is safe since for a distinct class value all these expressions give the same unique. getUnique cls getUnique (classTyCon cls) getUnique (className cls) getUnique (tcName $ classTyCon cls) This is for the most part contained within the modules defining the interface. However it requires us to play dirty when we are given a `Name` to lookup in a `UniqFM Class a` map. But again the logic did not change and it's for the most part hidden behind the Env Module. Some of these cases could be avoided by refactoring but this is left for future work. We also bump the haddock submodule as it uses UniqFM.

* Always use rnImplicitBndrs to bring implicit tyvars into scopeRyan Scott2020-06-101-6/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements a first step towards #16762 by changing the renamer to always use `rnImplicitBndrs` to bring implicitly bound type variables into scope. The main change is in `rnFamInstEqn` and `bindHsQTyVars`, which previously used _ad hoc_ methods of binding their implicit tyvars. There are a number of knock-on consequences: * One of the reasons that `rnFamInstEqn` used an _ad hoc_ binding mechanism was to give more precise source locations in `-Wunused-type-patterns` warnings. (See https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/16762#note_273343 for an example of this.) However, these warnings are actually a little _too_ precise, since implicitly bound type variables don't have exact binding sites like explicitly bound type variables do. A similar problem existed for "`Different names for the same type variable`" errors involving implicit tyvars bound by `bindHsQTyVars`. Therefore, we simply accept the less precise (but more accurate) source locations from `rnImplicitBndrs` in `rnFamInstEqn` and `bindHsQTyVars`. See `Note [Source locations for implicitly bound type variables]` in `GHC.Rename.HsType` for the full story. * In order for `rnImplicitBndrs` to work in `rnFamInstEqn`, it needs to be able to look up names from the parent class (in the event that we are renaming an associated type family instance). As a result, `rnImplicitBndrs` now takes an argument of type `Maybe assoc`, which is `Just` in the event that a type family instance is associated with a class. * Previously, GHC kept track of three type synonyms for free type variables in the renamer: `FreeKiTyVars`, `FreeKiTyVarsDups` (which are allowed to contain duplicates), and `FreeKiTyVarsNoDups` (which contain no duplicates). However, making is a distinction between `-Dups` and `-NoDups` is now pointless, as all code that returns `FreeKiTyVars{,Dups,NoDups}` will eventually end up being passed to `rnImplicitBndrs`, which removes duplicates. As a result, I decided to just get rid of `FreeKiTyVarsDups` and `FreeKiTyVarsNoDups`, leaving only `FreeKiTyVars`. * The `bindLRdrNames` and `deleteBys` functions are now dead code, so I took the liberty of removing them.
* Implement cstringLength# and FinalPtrAndrew Martin2020-05-231-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function and its accompanying rule resolve issue #5218. A future PR to the bytestring library will make the internal Data.ByteString.Internal.unsafePackAddress compute string length with cstringLength#. This will improve the status quo because it is eligible for constant folding. Additionally, introduce a new data constructor to ForeignPtrContents named FinalPtr. This additional data constructor, when used in the IsString instance for ByteString, leads to more Core-to-Core optimization opportunities, fewer runtime allocations, and smaller binaries. Also, this commit re-exports all the functions from GHC.CString (including cstringLength#) in GHC.Exts. It also adds a new test driver. This test driver is used to perform substring matches on Core that is dumped after all the simplifier passes. In this commit, it is used to check that constant folding of cstringLength# works.
