* Refactor the treatment of loopy superclass dictswip/T20666Richard Eisenberg2023-01-111-3/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch completely re-engineers how we deal with loopy superclass dictionaries in instance declarations. It fixes #20666 and #19690 The highlights are * Recognise that the loopy-superclass business should use precisely the Paterson conditions. This is much much nicer. See Note [Recursive superclasses] in GHC.Tc.TyCl.Instance * With that in mind, define "Paterson-smaller" in Note [Paterson conditions] in GHC.Tc.Validity, and the new data type `PatersonSize` in GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType, along with functions to compute and compare PatsonSizes * Use the new PatersonSize stuff when solving superclass constraints See Note [Solving superclass constraints] in GHC.Tc.TyCl.Instance * In GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad.lookupInInerts, add a missing call to prohibitedSuperClassSolve. This was the original cause of #20666. * Treat (TypeError "stuff") as having PatersonSize zero. See Note [Paterson size for type family applications] in GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType. * Treat the head of a Wanted quantified constraint in the same way as the superclass of an instance decl; this is what fixes #19690. See GHC.Tc.Solver.Canonical Note [Solving a Wanted forall-constraint] (Thanks to Matthew Craven for this insight.) This entailed refactoring the GivenSc constructor of CtOrigin a bit, to say whether it comes from an instance decl or quantified constraint. * Some refactoring way in which redundant constraints are reported; we don't want to complain about the extra, apparently-redundant constraints that we must add to an instance decl because of the loopy-superclass thing. I moved some work from GHC.Tc.Errors to GHC.Tc.Solver. * Add a new section to the user manual to describe the loopy superclass issue and what rules it follows.

* Type vs Constraint: finally nailedSimon Peyton Jones2022-11-111-12/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This big patch addresses the rats-nest of issues that have plagued us for years, about the relationship between Type and Constraint. See #11715/#21623. The main payload of the patch is: * To introduce CONSTRAINT :: RuntimeRep -> Type * To make TYPE and CONSTRAINT distinct throughout the compiler Two overview Notes in GHC.Builtin.Types.Prim * Note [TYPE and CONSTRAINT] * Note [Type and Constraint are not apart] This is the main complication. The specifics * New primitive types (GHC.Builtin.Types.Prim) - CONSTRAINT - ctArrowTyCon (=>) - tcArrowTyCon (-=>) - ccArrowTyCon (==>) - funTyCon FUN -- Not new See Note [Function type constructors and FunTy] and Note [TYPE and CONSTRAINT] * GHC.Builtin.Types: - New type Constraint = CONSTRAINT LiftedRep - I also stopped nonEmptyTyCon being built-in; it only needs to be wired-in * Exploit the fact that Type and Constraint are distinct throughout GHC - Get rid of tcView in favour of coreView. - Many tcXX functions become XX functions. e.g. tcGetCastedTyVar --> getCastedTyVar * Kill off Note [ForAllTy and typechecker equality], in (old) GHC.Tc.Solver.Canonical. It said that typechecker-equality should ignore the specified/inferred distinction when comparein two ForAllTys. But that wsa only weakly supported and (worse) implies that we need a separate typechecker equality, different from core equality. No no no. * GHC.Core.TyCon: kill off FunTyCon in data TyCon. There was no need for it, and anyway now we have four of them! * GHC.Core.TyCo.Rep: add two FunTyFlags to FunCo See Note [FunCo] in that module. * GHC.Core.Type. Lots and lots of changes driven by adding CONSTRAINT. The key new function is sORTKind_maybe; most other changes are built on top of that. See also `funTyConAppTy_maybe` and `tyConAppFun_maybe`. * Fix a longstanding bug in GHC.Core.Type.typeKind, and Core Lint, in kinding ForAllTys. See new tules (FORALL1) and (FORALL2) in GHC.Core.Type. (The bug was that before (forall (cv::t1 ~# t2). blah), where blah::TYPE IntRep, would get kind (TYPE IntRep), but it should be (TYPE LiftedRep). See Note [Kinding rules for types] in GHC.Core.Type. * GHC.Core.TyCo.Compare is a new module in which we do eqType and cmpType. Of course, no tcEqType any more. * GHC.Core.TyCo.FVs. I moved some free-var-like function into this module: tyConsOfType, visVarsOfType, and occCheckExpand. Refactoring only. * GHC.Builtin.Types. Compiletely re-engineer boxingDataCon_maybe to have one for each /RuntimeRep/, rather than one for each /Type/. This dramatically widens the range of types we can auto-box. See Note [Boxing constructors] in GHC.Builtin.Types The boxing types themselves are declared in library ghc-prim:GHC.Types. GHC.Core.Make. Re-engineer the treatment of "big" tuples (mkBigCoreVarTup etc) GHC.Core.Make, so that it auto-boxes unboxed values and (crucially) types of kind Constraint. That allows the desugaring for arrows to work; it gathers up free variables (including dictionaries) into tuples. See Note [Big tuples] in GHC.Core.Make. There is still work to do here: #22336. But things are better than before. * GHC.Core.Make. We need two absent-error Ids, aBSENT_ERROR_ID for types of kind Type, and aBSENT_CONSTRAINT_ERROR_ID for vaues of kind Constraint. Ditto noInlineId vs noInlieConstraintId in GHC.Types.Id.Make; see Note [inlineId magic]. * GHC.Core.TyCo.Rep. Completely refactor the NthCo coercion. It is now called SelCo, and its fields are much more descriptive than the single Int we used to have. A great improvement. See Note [SelCo] in GHC.Core.TyCo.Rep. * GHC.Core.RoughMap.roughMatchTyConName. Collapse TYPE and CONSTRAINT to a single TyCon, so that the rough-map does not distinguish them. * GHC.Core.DataCon - Mainly just improve documentation * Some significant renamings: GHC.Core.Multiplicity: Many --> ManyTy (easier to grep for) One --> OneTy GHC.Core.TyCo.Rep TyCoBinder --> GHC.Core.Var.PiTyBinder GHC.Core.Var TyCoVarBinder --> ForAllTyBinder AnonArgFlag --> FunTyFlag ArgFlag --> ForAllTyFlag GHC.Core.TyCon TyConTyCoBinder --> TyConPiTyBinder Many functions are renamed in consequence e.g. isinvisibleArgFlag becomes isInvisibleForAllTyFlag, etc * I refactored FunTyFlag (was AnonArgFlag) into a simple, flat data type data FunTyFlag = FTF_T_T -- (->) Type -> Type | FTF_T_C -- (-=>) Type -> Constraint | FTF_C_T -- (=>) Constraint -> Type | FTF_C_C -- (==>) Constraint -> Constraint * GHC.Tc.Errors.Ppr. Some significant refactoring in the TypeEqMisMatch case of pprMismatchMsg. * I made the tyConUnique field of TyCon strict, because I saw code with lots of silly eval's. That revealed that GHC.Settings.Constants.mAX_SUM_SIZE can only be 63, because we pack the sum tag into a 6-bit field. (Lurking bug squashed.) Fixes * #21530 Updates haddock submodule slightly. Performance changes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was worried that compile times would get worse, but after some careful profiling we are down to a geometric mean 0.1% increase in allocation (in perf/compiler). That seems fine. There is a big runtime improvement in T10359 Metric Decrease: LargeRecord MultiLayerModulesTH_OneShot T13386 T13719 Metric Increase: T8095
* matchLocalInst: do domination analysissheaf2022-09-281-13/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When multiple Given quantified constraints match a Wanted, and there is a quantified constraint that dominates all others, we now pick it to solve the Wanted. See Note [Use only the best matching quantified constraint]. For example: [G] d1: forall a b. ( Eq a, Num b, C a b ) => D a b [G] d2: forall a . C a Int => D a Int [W] {w}: D a Int When solving the Wanted, we find that both Givens match, but we pick the second, because it has a weaker precondition, C a Int, compared to (Eq a, Num Int, C a Int). We thus say that d2 dominates d1; see Note [When does a quantified instance dominate another?]. This domination test is done purely in terms of superclass expansion, in the function GHC.Tc.Solver.Interact.impliedBySCs. We don't attempt to do a full round of constraint solving; this simple check suffices for now. Fixes #22216 and #22223
* Fix typosEric Lindblad2022-09-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | This fixes various typos and spelling mistakes in the compiler. Fixes #21891
* Add diagnostic codessheaf2022-09-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This MR adds diagnostic codes, assigning unique numeric codes to error and warnings, e.g. error: [GHC-53633] Pattern match is redundant This is achieved as follows: - a type family GhcDiagnosticCode that gives the diagnostic code for each diagnostic constructor, - a type family ConRecursInto that specifies whether to recur into an argument of the constructor to obtain a more fine-grained code (e.g. different error codes for different 'deriving' errors), - generics machinery to generate the value-level function assigning each diagnostic its error code; see Note [Diagnostic codes using generics] in GHC.Types.Error.Codes. The upshot is that, to add a new diagnostic code, contributors only need to modify the two type families mentioned above. All logic relating to diagnostic codes is thus contained to the GHC.Types.Error.Codes module, with no code duplication. This MR also refactors error message datatypes a bit, ensuring we can derive Generic for them, and cleans up the logic around constraint solver reports by splitting up 'TcSolverReportInfo' into separate datatypes (see #20772). Fixes #21684
* Remove TCvSubst and use Subst for both term and type-level substYiyun Liu2022-08-041-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the TCvSubst data type and instead uses Subst as the environment for both term and type level substitution. This change is partially motivated by the existential type proposal, which will introduce types that contain expressions and therefore forces us to carry around an "IdSubstEnv" even when substituting for types. It also reduces the amount of code because "Subst" and "TCvSubst" share a lot of common operations. There isn't any noticeable impact on performance (geo. mean for ghc/alloc is around 0.0% but we have -94 loc and one less data type to worry abount). Currently, the "TCvSubst" data type for substitution on types is identical to the "Subst" data type except the former doesn't store "IdSubstEnv". Using "Subst" for type-level substitution means there will be a redundant field stored in the data type. However, in cases where the substitution starts from the expression, using "Subst" for type-level substitution saves us from having to project "Subst" into a "TCvSubst". This probably explains why the allocation is mostly even despite the redundant field. The patch deletes "TCvSubst" and moves "Subst" and its relevant functions from "GHC.Core.Subst" into "GHC.Core.TyCo.Subst". Substitution on expressions is still defined in "GHC.Core.Subst" so we don't have to expose the definition of "Expr" in the hs-boot file that "GHC.Core.TyCo.Subst" must import to refer to "IdSubstEnv" (whose codomain is "CoreExpr"). Most functions named fooTCvSubst are renamed into fooSubst with a few exceptions (e.g. "isEmptyTCvSubst" is a distinct function from "isEmptySubst"; the former ignores the emptiness of "IdSubstEnv"). These exceptions mainly exist for performance reasons and will go away when "Expr" and "Type" are mutually recursively defined (we won't be able to take those shortcuts if we can't make the assumption that expressions don't appear in types).
* Get the in-scope set right in FamInstEnv.injectiveBranchesSimon Peyton Jones2022-07-251-9/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There was an assert error, as Gergo pointed out in #21896. I fixed this by adding an InScopeSet argument to tcUnifyTyWithTFs. And also to GHC.Core.Unify.niFixTCvSubst. I also took the opportunity to get a couple more InScopeSets right, and to change some substTyUnchecked into substTy. This MR touches a lot of other files, but only because I also took the opportunity to introduce mkInScopeSetList, and use it.
* Generalize breakTyVarCycle to work with TyFamLHSRichard Eisenberg2022-05-261-19/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function breakTyVarCycle_maybe has been installed in a dark corner of GHC to catch some gremlins (a.k.a. occurs-check failures) who lurk there. But it previously only caught gremlins of the form (a ~ ... F a ...), where some of our intrepid users have spawned gremlins of the form (G a ~ ... F (G a) ...). This commit improves breakTyVarCycle_maybe (and renames it to breakTyEqCycle_maybe) to catch the new gremlins. Happily, the change is remarkably small. The gory details are in Note [Type equality cycles]. Test cases: typecheck/should_compile/{T21515,T21473}.
* Consider the stage of typeable evidence when checking stage restrictionMatthew Pickering2022-05-221-10/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were considering all Typeable evidence to be "BuiltinInstance"s which meant the stage restriction was going unchecked. In-fact, typeable has evidence and so we need to apply the stage restriction. This is complicated by the fact we don't generate typeable evidence and the corresponding DFunIds until after typechecking is concluded so we introcue a new `InstanceWhat` constructor, BuiltinTypeableInstance which records whether the evidence is going to be local or not.

* Fix unification of ConcreteTvs, removing IsRefl#sheaf2022-04-281-8/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes the unification of concrete type variables. The subtlety was that unifying concrete metavariables is more subtle than other metavariables, as decomposition is possible. See the Note [Unifying concrete metavariables], which explains how we unify a concrete type variable with a type 'ty' by concretising 'ty', using the function 'GHC.Tc.Utils.Concrete.concretise'. This can be used to perform an eager syntactic check for concreteness, allowing us to remove the IsRefl# special predicate. Instead of emitting two constraints `rr ~# concrete_tv` and `IsRefl# rr concrete_tv`, we instead concretise 'rr'. If this succeeds we can fill 'concrete_tv', and otherwise we directly emit an error message to the typechecker environment instead of deferring. We still need the error message to be passed on (instead of directly thrown), as we might benefit from further unification in which case we will need to zonk the stored types. To achieve this, we change the 'wc_holes' field of 'WantedConstraints' to 'wc_errors', which stores general delayed errors. For the moement, a delayed error is either a hole, or a syntactic equality error. hasFixedRuntimeRep_MustBeRefl is now hasFixedRuntimeRep_syntactic, and hasFixedRuntimeRep has been refactored to directly return the most useful coercion for PHASE 2 of FixedRuntimeRep. This patch also adds a field ir_frr to the InferResult datatype, holding a value of type Maybe FRROrigin. When this value is not Nothing, this means that we must fill the ir_ref field with a type which has a fixed RuntimeRep. When it comes time to fill such an ExpType, we ensure that the type has a fixed RuntimeRep by performing a representation-polymorphism check with the given FRROrigin This is similar to what we already do to ensure we fill an Infer ExpType with a type of the correct TcLevel. This allows us to properly perform representation-polymorphism checks on 'Infer' 'ExpTypes'. The fillInferResult function had to be moved to GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify to avoid a cyclic import now that it calls hasFixedRuntimeRep. This patch also changes the code in matchExpectedFunTys to make use of the coercions, which is now possible thanks to the previous change. This implements PHASE 2 of FixedRuntimeRep in some situations. For example, the test cases T13105 and T17536b are now both accepted.

* Introduce ConcreteTv metavariablessheaf2022-03-021-9/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a new kind of metavariable, by adding the constructor `ConcreteTv` to `MetaInfo`. A metavariable with `ConcreteTv` `MetaInfo`, henceforth a concrete metavariable, can only be unified with a type that is concrete (that is, a type that answers `True` to `GHC.Core.Type.isConcrete`). This solves the problem of dangling metavariables in `Concrete#` constraints: instead of emitting `Concrete# ty`, which contains a secret existential metavariable, we simply emit a primitive equality constraint `ty ~# concrete_tv` where `concrete_tv` is a fresh concrete metavariable. This means we can avoid all the complexity of canonicalising `Concrete#` constraints, as we can just re-use the existing machinery for `~#`. To finish things up, this patch then removes the `Concrete#` special predicate, and instead introduces the special predicate `IsRefl#` which enforces that a coercion is reflexive. Such a constraint is needed because the canonicaliser is quite happy to rewrite an equality constraint such as `ty ~# concrete_tv`, but such a rewriting is not handled by the rest of the compiler currently, as we need to make use of the resulting coercion, as outlined in the FixedRuntimeRep plan. The big upside of this approach (on top of simplifying the code) is that we can now selectively implement PHASE 2 of FixedRuntimeRep, by changing individual calls of `hasFixedRuntimeRep_MustBeRefl` to `hasFixedRuntimeRep` and making use of the obtained coercion.
* Kill derived constraintsRichard Eisenberg2022-02-231-533/+163
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Co-authored by: Sam Derbyshire Previously, GHC had three flavours of constraint: Wanted, Given, and Derived. This removes Derived constraints. Though serving a number of purposes, the most important role of Derived constraints was to enable better error messages. This job has been taken over by the new RewriterSets, as explained in Note [Wanteds rewrite wanteds] in GHC.Tc.Types.Constraint. Other knock-on effects: - Various new Notes as I learned about under-described bits of GHC - A reshuffling around the AST for implicit-parameter bindings, with better integration with TTG. - Various improvements around fundeps. These were caused by the fact that, previously, fundep constraints were all Derived, and Derived constraints would get dropped. Thus, an unsolved Derived didn't stop compilation. Without Derived, this is no longer possible, and so we have to be considerably more careful around fundeps. - A nice little refactoring in GHC.Tc.Errors to center the work on a new datatype called ErrorItem. Constraints are converted into ErrorItems at the start of processing, and this allows for a little preprocessing before the main classification. - This commit also cleans up the behavior in generalisation around functional dependencies. Now, if a variable is determined by functional dependencies, it will not be quantified. This change is user facing, but it should trim down GHC's strange behavior around fundeps. - Previously, reportWanteds did quite a bit of work, even on an empty WantedConstraints. This commit adds a fast path. - Now, GHC will unconditionally re-simplify constraints during quantification. See Note [Unconditionally resimplify constraints when quantifying], in GHC.Tc.Solver.

* Rework the handling of SkolemInfoMatthew Pickering2022-01-291-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main purpose of this patch is to attach a SkolemInfo directly to each SkolemTv. This fixes the large number of bugs which have accumulated over the years where we failed to report errors due to having "no skolem info" for particular type variables. Now the origin of each type varible is stored on the type variable we can always report accurately where it cames from. Fixes #20969 #20732 #20680 #19482 #20232 #19752 #10946 #19760 #20063 #13499 #14040 The main changes of this patch are: * SkolemTv now contains a SkolemInfo field which tells us how the SkolemTv was created. Used when reporting errors. * Enforce invariants relating the SkolemInfoAnon and level of an implication (ic_info, ic_tclvl) to the SkolemInfo and level of the type variables in ic_skols. * All ic_skols are TcTyVars -- Check is currently disabled * All ic_skols are SkolemTv * The tv_lvl of the ic_skols agrees with the ic_tclvl * The ic_info agrees with the SkolInfo of the implication. These invariants are checked by a debug compiler by checkImplicationInvariants. * Completely refactor kcCheckDeclHeader_sig which kept doing my head in. Plus, it wasn't right because it wasn't skolemising the binders as it decomposed the kind signature. The new story is described in Note [kcCheckDeclHeader_sig]. The code is considerably shorter than before (roughly 240 lines turns into 150 lines). It still has the same awkward complexity around computing arity as before, but that is a language design issue. See Note [Arity inference in kcCheckDeclHeader_sig] * I added new type synonyms MonoTcTyCon and PolyTcTyCon, and used them to be clear which TcTyCons have "finished" kinds etc, and which are monomorphic. See Note [TcTyCon, MonoTcTyCon, and PolyTcTyCon] * I renamed etaExpandAlgTyCon to splitTyConKind, becuase that's a better name, and it is very useful in kcCheckDeclHeader_sig, where eta-expansion isn't an issue. * Kill off the nasty `ClassScopedTvEnv` entirely.

* Introduce Concrete# for representation polymorphism checkssheaf2021-10-171-17/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PHASE 1: we never rewrite Concrete# evidence. This patch migrates all the representation polymorphism checks to the typechecker, using a new constraint form Concrete# :: forall k. k -> TupleRep '[] Whenever a type `ty` must be representation-polymorphic (e.g. it is the type of an argument to a function), we emit a new `Concrete# ty` Wanted constraint. If this constraint goes unsolved, we report a representation-polymorphism error to the user. The 'FRROrigin' datatype keeps track of the context of the representation-polymorphism check, for more informative error messages. This paves the way for further improvements, such as allowing type families in RuntimeReps and improving the soundness of typed Template Haskell.

* Speed up valid hole-fits by adding early abort and checks.Matthías Páll Gissurarson2021-10-051-25/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | By adding an early abort flag in `TcSEnv`, we can fail fast in the presence of insoluble constraints. This helps us avoid a lot of work in valid hole-fits, and we geta massive speed-up by avoiding a lot of useless work solving constraints that never come into play. Additionally, we add a simple check for degenerate hole types, such as when the type of the hole is an immutable type variable (as is the case when the hole is completely unconstrained). Then the only valid fits are the locals, so we can ignore the global candidates. This fixes #16875
* Detect TypeError when checking for insolubilitysheaf2021-08-151-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We detect insoluble Givens by making getInertInsols take into account TypeError constraints, on top of insoluble equalities such as Int ~ Bool (which it already took into account). This allows pattern matches with insoluble contexts to be reported as redundant (tyOracle calls tcCheckGivens which calls getInertInsols). As a bonus, we get to remove a workaround in Data.Typeable.Internal: we can directly use a NotApplication type family, as opposed to needing to cook up an insoluble equality constraint. Fixes #11503 #14141 #16377 #20180
* Add rewriting to typechecking pluginssheaf2021-08-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Type-checking plugins can now directly rewrite type-families. The TcPlugin record is given a new field, tcPluginRewrite. The plugin specifies how to rewrite certain type-families with a value of type `UniqFM TyCon TcPluginRewriter`, where: type TcPluginRewriter = RewriteEnv -- Rewriter environment -> [Ct] -- Givens -> [TcType] -- type family arguments -> TcPluginM TcPluginRewriteResult data TcPluginRewriteResult = TcPluginNoRewrite | TcPluginRewriteTo { tcPluginRewriteTo :: Reduction , tcRewriterNewWanteds :: [Ct] } When rewriting an exactly-saturated type-family application, GHC will first query type-checking plugins for possible rewritings before proceeding. Includes some changes to the TcPlugin API, e.g. removal of the EvBindsVar parameter to the TcPluginM monad.
* Use Reductions to keep track of rewritingssheaf2021-08-041-49/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We define Reduction = Reduction Coercion !Type. A reduction of the form 'Reduction co new_ty' witnesses an equality ty ~co~> new_ty. That is, the rewriting happens left-to-right: the right-hand-side type of the coercion is the rewritten type, and the left-hand-side type the original type. Sticking to this convention makes the codebase more consistent, helping to avoid certain applications of SymCo. This replaces the parts of the codebase which represented reductions as pairs, (Coercion,Type) or (Type,Coercion). Reduction being strict in the Type argument improves performance in some programs that rewrite many type families (such as T9872).

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.
* Fix #19682 by breaking cycles in DerivedsRichard Eisenberg2021-06-051-42/+201
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit expands the old Note [Type variable cycles in Givens] to apply as well to Deriveds. See the Note for details and examples. This fixes a regression introduced by my earlier commit that killed off the flattener in favor of the rewriter. A few other things happened along the way: * unifyTest was renamed to touchabilityTest, because that's what it does. * isInsolubleOccursCheck was folded into checkTypeEq, which does much of the same work. To get this to work out, though, we need to keep more careful track of what errors we spot in checkTypeEq, and so CheckTyEqResult has become rather more glorious. * A redundant Note or two was eliminated. * Kill off occCheckForErrors; due to Note [Rewriting synonyms], the extra occCheckExpand here is always redundant. * Store blocked equalities separately from other inerts; less stuff to look through when kicking out. Close #19682. test case: typecheck/should_compile/T19682{,b}
* Rip GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad asunder (only)Richard Eisenberg2021-05-291-1904/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | This creates new modules GHC.Tc.Solver.InertSet and GHC.Tc.Solver.Types. The Monad module is still pretty big, but this is an improvement. Moreover, it means that GHC.HsToCore.Pmc.Solver.Types no longer depends on the constraint solver (it now depends on GHC.Tc.Solver.InertSet), making the error-messages work easier. This patch thus contributes to #18516.

* Kick out fewer equalities by thinking harderRichard Eisenberg2021-04-101-26/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Close #17672. By scratching our heads quite hard, we realized that we should never kick out Given/Nominal equalities. This commit tweaks the kick-out conditions accordingly. See also Note [K4] which describes what is going on. This does not fix a known misbehavior, but it should be a small improvement in both practice (kicking out is bad, and we now do less of it) and theory (a Given/Nominal should behave just like a filled-in metavariable, which has no notion of kicking out).
* Tweak kick-out condition K2b to deal with LHSsRichard Eisenberg2021-04-101-50/+123
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kick out condition K2b really only makes sense for inerts with a type variable on the left. This updates the commentary and the code to skip this check for inerts with type families on the left. Also cleans up some commentary around solver invariants and adds Note [K2b].

We get rid of `reportWarning` and `reportError` in favour of a general `reportDiagnostic`. * Introduce `DiagnosticReason`, `Severity` is an enum: This big commit makes `Severity` a simple enumeration, and introduces the concept of `DiagnosticReason`, which classifies the /reason/ why we are emitting a particular diagnostic. It also adds a monomorphic `DiagnosticMessage` type which is used for generic messages. * The `Severity` is computed (for now) from the reason, statically. Later improvement will add a `diagReasonSeverity` function to compute the `Severity` taking `DynFlags` into account. * Rename `logWarnings` into `logDiagnostics` * Add note and expand description of the `mkHoleError` function

* Refactor LoggerSylvain Henry2021-02-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Fix a long standing bug in constraint solvingSimon Peyton Jones2021-02-091-8/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When combining Inert: [W] C ty1 ty2 Work item: [D] C ty1 ty2 we were simply discarding the Derived one. Not good! We should turn the inert back into [WD] or keep both. E.g. fundeps work only on Derived (see isImprovable). This little patch fixes it. The bug is hard to tickle, but #19315 did so. The fix is a little messy (see Note [KeepBoth] plus the change in addDictCt), but I am disinclined to refine it further because it'll all be swept away when we Kill Deriveds.

Also some refactoring/improvements around the BindFun in the pure unifier, which now can take the RHS type into account. Close #19106. Close #19107.

* Establish invariant (GivenInv)Simon Peyton Jones2021-01-021-8/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch establishes invariant (GivenInv) from GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType Note [TcLevel invariants]. (GivenInv) says that unification variables from level 'n' should not appear in the Givens for level 'n'. See Note [GivenInv] in teh same module. This invariant was already very nearly true, but a dark corner of partial type signatures made it false. The patch re-jigs partial type signatures a bit to avoid the problem, and documents the invariant much more thorughly Fixes #18646 along the way: see Note [Extra-constraints wildcards] in GHC.Tc.Gen.Bind I also simplified the interface to tcSimplifyInfer slightly, so that it /emits/ the residual constraint, rather than /returning/ it.
* Kill floatEqualities completelySimon Peyton Jones2020-12-201-201/+360
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch delivers on #17656, by entirel killing off the complex floatEqualities mechanism. Previously, floatEqualities would float an equality out of an implication, so that it could be solved at an outer level. But now we simply do unification in-place, without floating the constraint, relying on level numbers to determine untouchability. There are a number of important new Notes: * GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify Note [Unification preconditions] describes the preconditions for unification, including both skolem-escape and touchability. * GHC.Tc.Solver.Interact Note [Solve by unification] describes what we do when we do unify * GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad Note [The Unification Level Flag] describes how we control solver iteration under this new scheme * GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad Note [Tracking Given equalities] describes how we track when we have Given equalities * GHC.Tc.Types.Constraint Note [HasGivenEqs] is a new explanation of the ic_given_eqs field of an implication A big raft of subtle Notes in Solver, concerning floatEqualities, disappears. Main code changes: * GHC.Tc.Solver.floatEqualities disappears entirely * GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad: new fields in InertCans, inert_given_eq_lvl and inert_given_eq, updated by updateGivenEqs See Note [Tracking Given equalities]. * In exchange for updateGivenEqa, GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad.getHasGivenEqs is much simpler and more efficient * I found I could kill of metaTyVarUpdateOK entirely One test case T14683 showed a 5.1% decrease in compile-time allocation; and T5631 was down 2.2%. Other changes were small. Metric Decrease: T14683 T5631
* Rename the flattener to become the rewriter.Richard Eisenberg2020-12-011-13/+11
| | | | | | | | Now that flattening doesn't produce flattening variables, it's not really flattening anything: it's rewriting. This change also means that the rewriter can no longer be confused the core flattener (in GHC.Core.Unify), which is sometimes used during type-checking.
* Remove flattening variablesRichard Eisenberg2020-12-011-750/+715
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 -------------------------

* Split GHC.Driver.TypesSylvain Henry2020-10-291-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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
