* compiler: Introduce and use RoughMap for instance environmentsBen Gamari2022-02-041-8/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here we introduce a new data structure, RoughMap, inspired by the previous `RoughTc` matching mechanism for checking instance matches. This allows [Fam]InstEnv to be implemented as a trie indexed by these RoughTc signatures, reducing the complexity of instance lookup and FamInstEnv merging (done during the family instance conflict test) from O(n) to O(log n). The critical performance improvement currently realised by this patch is in instance matching. In particular the RoughMap mechanism allows us to discount many potential instances which will never match for constraints involving type variables (see Note [Matching a RoughMap]). In realistic code bases matchInstEnv was accounting for 50% of typechecker time due to redundant work checking instances when simplifying instance contexts when deriving instances. With this patch the cost is significantly reduced. The larger constants in InstEnv creation do mean that a few small tests regress in allocations slightly. However, the runtime of T19703 is reduced by a factor of 4. Moreover, the compilation time of the Cabal library is slightly improved. A couple of test cases are included which demonstrate significant improvements in compile time with this patch. This unfortunately does not fix the testcase provided in #19703 but does fix #20933 ------------------------- Metric Decrease: T12425 Metric Increase: T13719 T9872a T9872d hard_hole_fits ------------------------- Co-authored-by: Matthew Pickering <matthewtpickering@gmail.com>
* Give plugins a better interface (#17957)Sylvain Henry2021-12-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Plugins were directly fetched from HscEnv (hsc_static_plugins and hsc_plugins). The tight coupling of plugins and of HscEnv is undesirable and it's better to store them in a new Plugins datatype and to use it in the plugins' API (e.g. withPlugins, mapPlugins...). In the process, the interactive context (used by GHCi) got proper support for different static plugins than those used for loaded modules. Bump haddock submodule
* Ghci environment: Do not remove shadowed idsJoachim Breitner2021-12-141-24/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Names defined earier but shadowed need to be kept around, e.g. for type signatures: ``` ghci> data T = T ghci> let t = T ghci> data T = T ghci> :t t t :: Ghci1.T ``` and indeed they can be used: ``` ghci> let t2 = Ghci1.T :: Ghci1.T ghci> :t t2 t2 :: Ghci1.T ``` However, previously this did not happen for ids (non-types), although they are still around under the qualified name internally: ``` ghci> let t = "other t" ghci> t' <interactive>:8:1: error: • Variable not in scope: t' • Perhaps you meant one of these: ‘Ghci2.t’ (imported from Ghci2), ‘t’ (line 7), ‘t2’ (line 5) ghci> Ghci2.t <interactive>:9:1: error: • GHC internal error: ‘Ghci2.t’ is not in scope during type checking, but it passed the renamer tcl_env of environment: [] • In the expression: Ghci2.t In an equation for ‘it’: it = Ghci2.t ``` This fixes the problem by simply removing the code that tries to remove shadowed ids from the environment. Now you can refer to shadowed ids using `Ghci2.t`, just like you can do for data and type constructors. This simplifies the code, makes terms and types more similar, and also fixes #20455. Now all names ever defined in GHCi are in `ic_tythings`, which is printed by `:show bindings`. But for that commands, it seems to be more ergonomic to only list those bindings that are not shadowed. Or, even if it is not more ergonomic, it’s the current behavour. So let's restore that by filtering in `icInScopeTTs`. Of course a single `TyThing` can be associated with many names. We keep it it in the bindings if _any_ of its names are still visible unqualifiedly. It's a judgement call. This commit also turns a rather old comment into a test files. The comment is is rather stale and things are better explained elsewhere. Fixes #925. Two test cases are regressing: T14052(ghci) ghc/alloc 2749444288.0 12192109912.0 +343.4% BAD T14052Type(ghci) ghc/alloc 7365784616.0 10767078344.0 +46.2% BAD This is not unexpected; the `ic_tythings list grows` a lot more if we don’t remove shadowed Ids. I tried to alleviate it a bit with earlier MRs, but couldn’t make up for it completely. Metric Increase: T14052 T14052Type
* InteractiveContext: Smarter caching when rebuilding the ic_rn_gbl_envJoachim Breitner2021-10-191-18/+75
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GlobalRdrEnv of a GHCI session changes in odd ways: New bindings are not just added "to the end", but also "in the middle", namely when changing the set of imports: These are treated as if they happened before all bindings from the prompt, even those that happened earlier. Previously, this meant that the `ic_rn_gbl_env` is recalculated from the `ic_tythings`. But this wasteful if `ic_tythings` has many entries that define the same unqualified name. By separately keeping track of a `GlobalRdrEnv` of all the locally defined things we can speed this operation up significantly. This change improves `T14052Type` by 60% (It used to be 70%, but it looks that !6723 already reaped some of the rewards). But more importantly, it hopefully unblocks #20455, becaues with this smarter caching, the change needed to fix that issue will no longer make `T14052` explode. I hope. It does regress `T14052` by 30%; caching isn’t free. Oh well. Metric Decrease: T14052Type Metric Increase: T14052
* shadowNames: Use OccEnv a, not [OccName]Joachim Breitner2021-10-151-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | this allows us to use a smarter implementation based on `Data.IntSet.differenceWith`, which should do less work. Also, it will unblock improvements to !6703. The `OccEnv a` really denotes a set of `OccName`s. We are not using `OccSet`, though, because that is an `OccEnv OccName`, and we in !6703 we want to use this with differently-valued `OccEnv`s. But `OccSet`s are readily and safely coerced into `OccEnv`s. There is no other use of `delLocalRdrEnvList` remaining, so removing that.
* shadowNames: Accept an OccName, not a GreNameJoachim Breitner2021-10-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | previously, the `shadowNames` function would take `[GreName]`. This has confused me for two reasons: * Why `GreName` and not `Name`? Does the difference between a normal name and a field name matter? The code of `shadowNames` shows that it does not, but really its better if the type signatures says so. * Why `Name` and not `OccName`? The point of `shadowNames` is to shadow _unqualified names_, at least in the two use cases I am aware of (names defined on the GHCI prompt or in TH splices). The code of `shadowNames` used to have cases that peek at the module of the given name and do something if that module appears in the `GlobalRdrElt`, but I think these cases are dead code, I don’t see how they could occur in the above use cases. Also, I replaced them with `errors` and GHC would still validate. Hence removing this code (yay!) This change also allows `shadowNames` to accept an `OccSet` instead, which allows for a faster implemenation; I’ll try that separately. This in stead might help with !6703.
* Simplify shadowing of DuplicateRecordFields in GHCi (fixes #19314)Adam Gundry2021-03-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | Previously, defining fields with DuplicateRecordFields in GHCi lead to strange shadowing behaviour, whereby fields would (accidentally) not shadow other fields. This simplifies things so that fields are shadowed in the same way whether or not DuplicateRecordFields is enabled.

* Move Unit related fields from DynFlags to HscEnvSylvain Henry2020-12-141-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The unit database cache, the home unit and the unit state were stored in DynFlags while they ought to be stored in the compiler session state (HscEnv). This patch fixes this. It introduces a new UnitEnv type that should be used in the future to handle separate unit environments (especially host vs target units). Related to #17957 Bump haddock submodule
* Move Plugins into HscEnv (#17957)Sylvain Henry2020-11-211-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | Loaded plugins have nothing to do in DynFlags so this patch moves them into HscEnv (session state). "DynFlags plugins" become "Driver plugins" to still be able to register static plugins. Bump haddock submodule
* Split GHC.Driver.TypesSylvain Henry2020-10-291-0/+389
I was working on making DynFlags stateless (#17957), especially by storing loaded plugins into HscEnv instead of DynFlags. It turned out to be complicated because HscEnv is in GHC.Driver.Types but LoadedPlugin isn't: it is in GHC.Driver.Plugins which depends on GHC.Driver.Types. I didn't feel like introducing yet another hs-boot file to break the loop. Additionally I remember that while we introduced the module hierarchy (#13009) we talked about splitting GHC.Driver.Types because it contained various unrelated types and functions, but we never executed. I didn't feel like making GHC.Driver.Types bigger with more unrelated Plugins related types, so finally I bit the bullet and split GHC.Driver.Types. As a consequence this patch moves a lot of things. I've tried to put them into appropriate modules but nothing is set in stone. Several other things moved to avoid loops. * Removed Binary instances from GHC.Utils.Binary for random compiler things * Moved Typeable Binary instances into GHC.Utils.Binary.Typeable: they import a lot of things that users of GHC.Utils.Binary don't want to depend on. * put everything related to Units/Modules under GHC.Unit: GHC.Unit.Finder, GHC.Unit.Module.{ModGuts,ModIface,Deps,etc.} * Created several modules under GHC.Types: GHC.Types.Fixity, SourceText, etc. * Split GHC.Utils.Error (into GHC.Types.Error) * Finally removed GHC.Driver.Types Note that this patch doesn't put loaded plugins into HscEnv. It's left for another patch. Bump haddock submodule
