* Introduce warning for loopy superclass solvesheaf2023-02-141-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit aed1974e completely re-engineered the treatment of loopy superclass dictionaries in instance declarations. Unfortunately, it has the potential to break (albeit in a rather minor way) user code. To alleviate migration concerns, this commit re-introduces the old behaviour. Any reliance on this old behaviour triggers a warning, controlled by `-Wloopy-superclass-solve`. The warning text explains that GHC might produce bottoming evidence, and provides a migration strategy. This allows us to provide a graceful migration period, alerting users when they are relying on this unsound behaviour. Fixes #22912 #22891 #20666 #22894 #22905
* Set "since: 9.8" for TypeAbstractions and -Wterm-variable-captureVladislav Zavialov2023-01-231-1/+1
| | | | | These flags did not make it into the 9.6 release series, so the "since" annotations must be corrected.
* Minor corrections to commentsAdam Gundry2023-01-181-4/+4

* Refactor warning flag parsing to add missing flagsAdam Gundry2023-01-181-16/+38
| | | | | | | | This adds `-Werror=<group>` and `-fwarn-<group>` flags for warning groups as well as individual warnings. Previously these were defined on an ad hoc basis so for example we had `-Werror=compat` but not `-Werror=unused-binds`, whereas we had `-fwarn-unused-binds` but not `-fwarn-compat`. Fixes #22182.
* Enable -Wstar-is-type by default (#22759)Vladislav Zavialov2023-01-181-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Following the plan in GHC Proposal #143 "Remove the * kind syntax", which states: In the next release (or 3 years in), enable -fwarn-star-is-type by default. The "next release" happens to be 9.6.1 I also moved the T21583 test case from should_fail to should_compile, because the only reason it was failing was -Werror=compat in our test suite configuration.
* Added a new warning about compatibility with RequiredTypeArgumentsHaskellMouse2023-01-111-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | This commit introduces a new warning that indicates code incompatible with future extension: RequiredTypeArguments. Enabling this extension may break some code and the warning will help to make it compatible in advance.
* Force the Docs structure to prevent leaks in GHCi with -haddock without ↵wip/force-docsZubin Duggal2023-01-031-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | -fwrite-interface Involves adding many new NFData instances. Without forcing Docs, references to the TcGblEnv for each module are retained by the Docs structure. Usually these are forced when the ModIface is serialised but not when we aren't writing the interface.
* codeGen: Introduce ThreadSanitizer instrumentationBen Gamari2022-12-151-0/+2
| | | | | | This introduces a new Cmm pass which instruments the program with ThreadSanitizer annotations, allowing full tracking of mutator memory accesses via TSAN.
* Properly cast values when writing/reading unboxed sums.Andreas Klebinger2022-11-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | Unboxed sums might store a Int8# value as Int64#. This patch makes sure we keep track of the actual value type. See Note [Casting slot arguments] for the details.
* Add Javascript backendSylvain Henry2022-11-291-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add JS backend adapted from the GHCJS project by Luite Stegeman. Some features haven't been ported or implemented yet. Tests for these features have been disabled with an associated gitlab ticket. Bump array submodule Work funded by IOG.

* Print unticked promoted data constructors (#20531)Vladislav Zavialov2022-11-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, GHC unconditionally printed ticks before promoted data constructors: ghci> type T = True -- unticked (user-written) ghci> :kind! T T :: Bool = 'True -- ticked (compiler output) After this patch, GHC prints ticks only when necessary: ghci> type F = False -- unticked (user-written) ghci> :kind! F F :: Bool = False -- unticked (compiler output) ghci> data False -- introduce ambiguity ghci> :kind! F F :: Bool = 'False -- ticked by necessity (compiler output) The old behavior can be enabled by -fprint-redundant-promotion-ticks. Summary of changes: * Rename PrintUnqualified to NamePprCtx * Add QueryPromotionTick to it * Consult the GlobalRdrEnv to decide whether to print a tick (see mkPromTick) * Introduce -fprint-redundant-promotion-ticks Co-authored-by: Artyom Kuznetsov <hi@wzrd.ht>

* Add -fsuppress-error-contexts to disable printing error contexts in errorswip/diagnostics-configMatthew Pickering2022-10-181-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In many development environments, the source span is the primary means of seeing what an error message relates to, and the In the expression: and In an equation for: clauses are not particularly relevant. However, they can grow to be quite long, which can make the message itself both feel overwhelming and interact badly with limited-space areas. It's simple to implement this flag so we might as well do it and give the user control about how they see their messages. Fixes #21722
* Interface Files with Core DefinitionsMatthew Pickering2022-10-111-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds three new flags * -fwrite-if-simplified-core: Writes the whole core program into an interface file * -fbyte-code-and-object-code: Generate both byte code and object code when compiling a file * -fprefer-byte-code: Prefer to use byte-code if it's available when running TH splices. The goal for including the core bindings in an interface file is to be able to restart the compiler pipeline at the point just after simplification and before code generation. Once compilation is restarted then code can be created for the byte code backend. This can significantly speed up start-times for projects in GHCi. HLS already implements its own version of these extended interface files for this reason. Preferring to use byte-code means that we can avoid some potentially expensive code generation steps (see #21700) * Producing object code is much slower than producing bytecode, and normally you need to compile with `-dynamic-too` to produce code in the static and dynamic way, the dynamic way just for Template Haskell execution when using a dynamically linked compiler. * Linking many large object files, which happens once per splice, can be quite expensive compared to linking bytecode. And you can get GHC to compile the necessary byte code so `-fprefer-byte-code` has access to it by using `-fbyte-code-and-object-code`. Fixes #21067
* Fix typosEric Lindblad2022-09-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | This fixes various typos and spelling mistakes in the compiler. Fixes #21891
* Change `-fprof-late` to insert cost centres after unfolding creation.Andreas Klebinger2022-08-061-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The former behaviour of adding cost centres after optimization but before unfoldings are created is not available via the flag `prof-late-inline` instead. I also reduced the overhead of -fprof-late* by pushing the cost centres into lambdas. This means the cost centres will only account for execution of functions and not their partial application. Further I made LATE_CC cost centres it's own CC flavour so they now won't clash with user defined ones if a user uses the same string for a custom scc. LateCC: Don't put cost centres inside constructor workers. With -fprof-late they are rarely useful as the worker is usually inlined. Even if the worker is not inlined or we use -fprof-late-linline they are generally not helpful but bloat compile and run time significantly. So we just don't add sccs inside constructor workers. ------------------------- Metric Decrease: T13701 -------------------------
* Add -dsuppress-coercion-types to make coercions even smaller.Andreas Klebinger2022-08-021-1/+3
| | | | | Instead of `` `cast` <Co:11> :: (Some -> Really -> Large Type)`` simply print `` `cast` <Co:11> :: ... ``
* Align the behaviour of `dopt` and `log_dopt`Dominik Peteler2022-07-161-0/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before the behaviour of `dopt` and `logHasDumpFlag` (and the underlying function `log_dopt`) were different as the latter did not take the verbosity level into account. This led to problems during the refactoring as we cannot simply replace calls to `dopt` with calls to `logHasDumpFlag`. In addition to that a subtle bug in the GHC module was fixed: `setSessionDynFlags` did not update the logger and as a consequence the verbosity value of the logger was not set appropriately. Fixes #21861
* Flags to disable local let-floating; -flocal-float-out, ↵Vanessa McHale2022-06-221-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | -flocal-float-out-top-level CLI flags These flags affect the behaviour of local let floating. If `-flocal-float-out` is disabled (the default) then we disable all local floating. ``` …(let x = let y = e in (a,b) in body)... ===> …(let y = e; x = (a,b) in body)... ``` Further to this, top-level local floating can be disabled on it's own by passing -fno-local-float-out-top-level. ``` x = let y = e in (a,b) ===> y = e; x = (a,b) ``` Note that this is only about local floating, ie, floating two adjacent lets past each other and doesn't say anything about the global floating pass which is controlled by `-fno-float`. Fixes #13663
* Include the way string in the file name for dump files.Andreas Klebinger2022-04-221-0/+1
| | | | | | This can be disabled by `-fno-dump-with-ways` if not desired. Finally we will be able to look at both profiled and non-profiled dumps when compiling with dump flags and we compile in both ways.
* Add flag -fprof-manual which controls if GHC should honour manual cost centres.Andreas Klebinger2022-04-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | This allows disabling of manual control centres in code a user doesn't control like libraries. Fixes #18867
* Add warnings for file header pragmas that appear in the body of a module ↵Zubin Duggal2022-04-061-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (#20385) Once we are done parsing the header of a module to obtain the options, we look through the rest of the tokens in order to determine if they contain any misplaced file header pragmas that would usually be ignored, potentially resulting in bad error messages. The warnings are reported immediately so that later errors don't shadow over potentially helpful warnings. Metric Increase: T13719
* hi haddock: Lex and store haddock docs in interface filesZubin Duggal2022-03-231-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Names appearing in Haddock docstrings are lexed and renamed like any other names appearing in the AST. We currently rename names irrespective of the namespace, so both type and constructor names corresponding to an identifier will appear in the docstring. Haddock will select a given name as the link destination based on its own heuristics. This patch also restricts the limitation of `-haddock` being incompatible with `Opt_KeepRawTokenStream`. The export and documenation structure is now computed in GHC and serialised in .hi files. This can be used by haddock to directly generate doc pages without reparsing or renaming the source. At the moment the operation of haddock is not modified, that's left to a future patch. Updates the haddock submodule with the minimum changes needed.
* Export (~) from Data.Type.Equality (#18862)wip/eqtycon-rnVladislav Zavialov2022-03-151-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | * Users can define their own (~) type operator * Haddock can display documentation for the built-in (~) * New transitional warnings implemented: -Wtype-equality-out-of-scope -Wtype-equality-requires-operators Updates the haddock submodule.
* Worker/wrapper: Preserve float barriers (#21150)Sebastian Graf2022-03-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Issue #21150 shows that worker/wrapper allocated a worker function for a function with multiple calls that said "called at most once" when the first argument was absent. That's bad! This patch makes it so that WW preserves at least one non-one-shot value lambda (see `Note [Preserving float barriers]`) by passing around `void#` in place of absent arguments. Fixes #21150. Since the fix is pretty similar to `Note [Protecting the last value argument]`, I put the logic in `mkWorkerArgs`. There I realised (#21204) that `-ffun-to-thunk` is basically useless with `-ffull-laziness`, so I deprecated the flag, simplified and split into `needsVoidWorkerArg`/`addVoidWorkerArg`. SpecConstr is another client of that API. Fixes #21204. Metric Decrease: T14683
* Ticky profiling improvements.Matthew Pickering2022-03-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a number of changes to ticky-ticky profiling. When an executable is profiled with IPE profiling it's now possible to associate id-related ticky counters to their source location. This works by emitting the info table address as part of the counter which can be looked up in the IPE table. Add a `-ticky-ap-thunk` flag. This flag prevents the use of some standard thunks which are precompiled into the RTS. This means reduced cache locality and increased code size. But it allows better attribution of execution cost to specific source locations instead of simple attributing it to the standard thunk. ticky-ticky now uses the `arg` field to emit additional information about counters in json format. When ticky-ticky is used in combination with the eventlog eventlog2html can be used to generate a html table from the eventlog similar to the old text output for ticky-ticky.
* Ticky: Gate tag-inference dummy ticky-counters behind a flag.Andreas Klebinger2022-02-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Tag inference included a way to collect stats about avoided tag-checks. This was dony by emitting "dummy" ticky entries with counts corresponding to predicted/unpredicated tag checks. This behaviour for ticky is now gated behind -fticky-tag-checks. I also documented ticky-LNE in the process.
* Remove -Wunticked-promoted-constructors from -WallKrzysztof Gogolewski2022-02-221-1/+0
| | | | | | | Update manual; explain ticks as optional disambiguation rather than the preferred default. This is a part of #20531.
* Tag inference work.Andreas Klebinger2022-02-121-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This does three major things: * Enforce the invariant that all strict fields must contain tagged pointers. * Try to predict the tag on bindings in order to omit tag checks. * Allows functions to pass arguments unlifted (call-by-value). The former is "simply" achieved by wrapping any constructor allocations with a case which will evaluate the respective strict bindings. The prediction is done by a new data flow analysis based on the STG representation of a program. This also helps us to avoid generating redudant cases for the above invariant. StrictWorkers are created by W/W directly and SpecConstr indirectly. See the Note [Strict Worker Ids] Other minor changes: * Add StgUtil module containing a few functions needed by, but not specific to the tag analysis. ------------------------- Metric Decrease: T12545 T18698b T18140 T18923 LargeRecord Metric Increase: LargeRecord ManyAlternatives ManyConstructors T10421 T12425 T12707 T13035 T13056 T13253 T13253-spj T13379 T15164 T18282 T18304 T18698a T1969 T20049 T3294 T4801 T5321FD T5321Fun T783 T9233 T9675 T9961 T19695 WWRec -------------------------

| | | | | | | | Some warnings have been there "forever" and I could not trace back the exact genesis, so I wrote "since at least 5.04". The flag `helpful-errors` could have been added in 7.2 already. I wrote 7.4 since I have no 7.2 available and it is not recognized by 7.0.

* Add -fcompact-unwindRobert Hensing2022-01-241-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This gives users the choice to enable __compact_unwind sections when linking. These were previously hardcoded to be removed. This can be used to solved the problem "C++ does not catch exceptions when used with Haskell-main and linked by ghc", https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/11829 It does not change the default behavior, because I can not estimate the impact this would have. When Apple first introduced the compact unwind ABI, a number of open source projects have taken the easy route of disabling it, avoiding errors or even just warnings shortly after its introduction. Since then, about a decade has passed, so it seems quite possible that Apple itself, and presumably many programs with it, have successfully switched to the new format, to the point where the old __eh_frame section support is in disrepair. Perhaps we should get along with the program, but for now we can test the waters with this flag, and use it to fix packages that need it.
* Rename -fcatch-bottoms to -fcatch-nonexhaustive-casesBen Gamari2021-12-211-2/+2
| | | | As noted in #20601, the previous name was rather misleading.
* codeGen: Introduce flag to bounds-check array accessesBen Gamari2021-12-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | Here we introduce code generator support for instrument array primops with bounds checking, enabled with the `-fcheck-prim-bounds` flag. Introduced to debug #20769.
* Add `Opt_CoreConstantFolding` to turn on constant folding (#20500)Gergo ERDI2021-12-091-0/+1
| | | | | Previously, `-O1` and `-O2`, by way of their effect on the compilation pipeline, they implicitly turned on constant folding

* Add a warning for GADT match + NoMonoLocalBinds (#20485)Krzysztof Gogolewski2021-11-231-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | Previously, it was an error to pattern match on a GADT without GADTs or TypeFamilies. This is now allowed. Instead, we check the flag MonoLocalBinds; if it is not enabled, we issue a warning, controlled by -Wgadt-mono-local-binds. Also fixes #20485: pattern synonyms are now checked too.
* Implement -Wforall-identifier (#20609)Vladislav Zavialov2021-11-121-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | In accordance with GHC Proposal #281 "Visible forall in types of terms": For three releases before this change takes place, include a new warning -Wforall-identifier in -Wdefault. This warning will be triggered at definition sites (but not use sites) of forall as an identifier. Updates the haddock submodule.

* driver: Export wWarningFlagMapBen Gamari2021-10-241-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | A new feature requires Ghcide to be able to convert warnings to CLI flags (WarningFlag -> String). This is most easily implemented in terms of the internal function flagSpecOf, which uses an inefficient implementation based on linear search through a linked list. This PR derives Ord for WarningFlag, and replaces that list with a Map. Closes #19087.
* Add `-dsuppress-core-sizes` flag (#20342)Sylvain Henry2021-09-281-0/+1
| | | | | This flag is used to remove the output of core stats per binding in Core dumps.

* Make Logger independent of DynFlagsSylvain Henry2021-06-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce LogFlags as a independent subset of DynFlags used for logging. As a consequence in many places we don't have to pass both Logger and DynFlags anymore. The main reason for this refactoring is that I want to refactor the systools interfaces: for now many systools functions use DynFlags both to use the Logger and to fetch their parameters (e.g. ldInputs for the linker). I'm interested in refactoring the way they fetch their parameters (i.e. use dedicated XxxOpts data types instead of DynFlags) for #19877. But if I did this refactoring before refactoring the Logger, we would have duplicate parameters (e.g. ldInputs from DynFlags and linkerInputs from LinkerOpts). Hence this patch first. Some flags don't really belong to LogFlags because they are subsystem specific (e.g. most DumpFlags). For example -ddump-asm should better be passed in NCGConfig somehow. This patch doesn't fix this tight coupling: the dump flags are part of the UI but they are passed all the way down for example to infer the file name for the dumps. Because LogFlags are a subset of the DynFlags, we must update the former when the latter changes (not so often). As a consequence we now use accessors to read/write DynFlags in HscEnv instead of using `hsc_dflags` directly. In the process I've also made some subsystems less dependent on DynFlags: - CmmToAsm: by passing some missing flags via NCGConfig (see new fields in GHC.CmmToAsm.Config) - Core.Opt.*: - by passing -dinline-check value into UnfoldingOpts - by fixing some Core passes interfaces (e.g. CallArity, FloatIn) that took DynFlags argument for no good reason. - as a side-effect GHC.Core.Opt.Pipeline.doCorePass is much less convoluted.
* Add -Wmissing-exported-pattern-synonym-signaturesThomas Winant2021-05-291-89/+91
| | | | | | | | | | | | | After !4741, it was no longer possible to silence a warning about a missing pattern synonym signature if the `-Wmissing-signatures` flag was on. Restore the previous semantics while still adhering to the principle "enabling an additional warning flag should never make prior warnings disappear". For more symmetry and granularity, introduce `-Wmissing-exported-pattern-synonym-signatures`. See Note [Missing signatures] for an overview of all flags involved.
