* Fix unification of ConcreteTvs, removing IsRefl#sheaf2022-04-2829-852/+1457
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Ensure that Any is Boxed in FFI imports/exportssheaf2022-04-272-9/+44
| | | | | | | | | | We should only accept the type `Any` in foreign import/export declarations when it has type `Type` or `UnliftedType`. This patch adds a kind check, and a special error message triggered by occurrences of `Any` in foreign import/export declarations at other kinds. Fixes #21305
* decideMonoTyVars: account for CoVars in candidatessheaf2022-04-222-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | The "candidates" passed to decideMonoTyVars can contain coercion holes. This is because we might well decide to quantify over some unsolved equality constraints, as long as they are not definitely insoluble. In that situation, decideMonoTyVars was passing a set of type variables that was not closed over kinds to closeWrtFunDeps, which was tripping up an assertion failure. Fixes #21404
* Relax "suppressing errors" assert in reportWantedssheaf2022-04-221-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | The assertion in reportWanteds that we aren't suppressing all the Wanted constraints was too strong: it might be the case that we are inside an implication, and have already reported an unsolved Wanted from outside the implication. It is possible that all Wanteds inside the implication have been rewritten by the outer Wanted, so we shouldn't throw an assertion failure in that case. Fixes #21405
* Remove LevityInfoKrzysztof Gogolewski2022-04-202-6/+3
| | | | | | Every Id was storing a boolean whether it could be levity-polymorphic. This information is no longer needed since representation-checking has been moved to the typechecker.
* Docs: datacon eta-expansion, rep-poly checkssheaf2022-04-083-31/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing notes weren't very clear on how the eta-expansion of data constructors that occurs in tcInferDataCon/dsConLike interacts with the representation polymorphism invariants. So we explain with a few more details how we ensure that the representation-polymorphic lambdas introduced by tcInferDataCon/dsConLike don't end up causing problems, by checking they are properly instantiated and then relying on the simple optimiser to perform beta reduction. A few additional changes: - ConLikeTc just take type variables instead of binders, as we never actually used the binders. - Removed the FRRApp constructor of FRROrigin; it was no longer used now that we use ExpectedFunTyOrigin. - Adds a bit of documentation to the constructors of ExpectedFunTyOrigin.

* Fix and simplify DeriveAnyClass's context inference using SubTypePredSpecRyan Scott2022-03-245-260/+467
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As explained in `Note [Gathering and simplifying constraints for DeriveAnyClass]` in `GHC.Tc.Deriv.Infer`, `DeriveAnyClass` infers instance contexts by emitting implication constraints. Previously, these implication constraints were constructed by hand. This is a terribly trick thing to get right, as it involves a delicate interplay of skolemisation, metavariable instantiation, and `TcLevel` bumping. Despite much effort, we discovered in #20719 that the implementation was subtly incorrect, leading to valid programs being rejected. While we could scrutinize the code that manually constructs implication constraints and repair it, there is a better, less error-prone way to do things. After all, the heart of `DeriveAnyClass` is generating code which fills in each class method with defaults, e.g., `foo = $gdm_foo`. Typechecking this sort of code is tantamount to calling `tcSubTypeSigma`, as we much ensure that the type of `$gdm_foo` is a subtype of (i.e., more polymorphic than) the type of `foo`. As an added bonus, `tcSubTypeSigma` is a battle-tested function that handles skolemisation, metvariable instantiation, `TcLevel` bumping, and all other means of tricky bookkeeping correctly. With this insight, the solution to the problems uncovered in #20719 is simple: use `tcSubTypeSigma` to check if `$gdm_foo`'s type is a subtype of `foo`'s type. As a side effect, `tcSubTypeSigma` will emit exactly the implication constraint that we were attempting to construct by hand previously. Moreover, it does so correctly, fixing #20719 as a consequence. This patch implements the solution thusly: * The `PredSpec` data type (previously named `PredOrigin`) is now split into `SimplePredSpec`, which directly stores a `PredType`, and `SubTypePredSpec`, which stores the actual and expected types in a subtype check. `SubTypePredSpec` is only used for `DeriveAnyClass`; all other deriving strategies use `SimplePredSpec`. * Because `tcSubTypeSigma` manages the finer details of type variable instantiation and constraint solving under the hood, there is no longer any need to delicately split apart the method type signatures in `inferConstraintsAnyclass`. This greatly simplifies the implementation of `inferConstraintsAnyclass` and obviates the need to store skolems, metavariables, or given constraints in a `ThetaSpec` (previously named `ThetaOrigin`). As a bonus, this means that `ThetaSpec` now simply becomes a synonym for a list of `PredSpec`s, which is conceptually much simpler than it was before. * In `simplifyDeriv`, each `SubTypePredSpec` results in a call to `tcSubTypeSigma`. This is only performed for its side effect of emitting an implication constraint, which is fed to the rest of the constraint solving machinery in `simplifyDeriv`. I have updated `Note [Gathering and simplifying constraints for DeriveAnyClass]` to explain this in more detail. To make the changes in `simplifyDeriv` more manageable, I also performed some auxiliary refactoring: * Previously, every iteration of `simplifyDeriv` was skolemising the type variables at the start, simplifying, and then performing a reverse substitution at the end to un-skolemise the type variables. This is not necessary, however, since we can just as well skolemise once at the beginning of the `deriving` pipeline and zonk the `TcTyVar`s after `simplifyDeriv` is finished. This patch does just that, having been made possible by prior work in !7613. I have updated `Note [Overlap and deriving]` in `GHC.Tc.Deriv.Infer` to explain this, and I have also left comments on the relevant data structures (e.g., `DerivEnv` and `DerivSpec`) to explain when things might be `TcTyVar`s or `TyVar`s. * All of the aforementioned cleanup allowed me to remove an ad hoc deriving-related in `checkImplicationInvariants`, as all of the skolems in a `tcSubTypeSigma`–produced implication constraint should now be `TcTyVar` at the time the implication is created. * Since `simplifyDeriv` now needs a `SkolemInfo` and `UserTypeCtxt`, I have added `ds_skol_info` and `ds_user_ctxt` fields to `DerivSpec` to store these. Similarly, I have also added a `denv_skol_info` field to `DerivEnv`, which ultimately gets used to initialize the `ds_skol_info` in a `DerivSpec`. Fixes #20719.
* hi haddock: Lex and store haddock docs in interface filesZubin Duggal2022-03-238-68/+111
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Revamp derived Eq instance code generation (#17240)nineonine2022-03-201-59/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch improves code generation for derived Eq instances. The idea is to use 'dataToTag' to evaluate both arguments. This allows to 'short-circuit' when tags do not match. Unfortunately, inner evals are still present when we branch on tags. This is due to the way 'dataToTag#' primop evaluates its argument in the code generator. #21207 was created to explore further optimizations. Metric Decrease: LargeRecord

* TTG: Make HsQuote GhcTc isomorphic to NoExtFieldromes2022-03-181-8/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An untyped bracket `HsQuote p` can never be constructed with `p ~ GhcTc`. This is because we don't typecheck `HsQuote` at all. That's OK, because we also never use `HsQuote GhcTc`. To enforce this at the type level we make `HsQuote GhcTc` isomorphic to `NoExtField` and impossible to construct otherwise, by using TTG field extensions to make all constructors, except for `XQuote` (which takes `NoExtField`), unconstructable, with `DataConCantHappen` This is explained more in detail in Note [The life cycle of a TH quotation] Related discussion: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/4782
* TTG: Refactor bracket for desugaring during tcromes2022-03-184-24/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When desugaring a bracket we want to desugar /renamed/ rather than /typechecked/ code; So in (HsExpr GhcTc) tree, we must have a (HsExpr GhcRn) for the quotation itself. This commit reworks the TTG refactor on typed and untyped brackets by storing the /renamed/ code in the bracket field extension rather than in the constructor extension in `HsQuote` (previously called `HsUntypedBracket`) See Note [The life cycle of a TH quotation] and https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/4782

* Fix isLiftedType_maybe and handle falloutsheaf2022-03-1421-265/+499
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As #20837 pointed out, `isLiftedType_maybe` returned `Just False` in many situations where it should return `Nothing`, because it didn't take into account type families or type variables. In this patch, we fix this issue. We rename `isLiftedType_maybe` to `typeLevity_maybe`, which now returns a `Levity` instead of a boolean. We now return `Nothing` for types with kinds of the form `TYPE (F a1 ... an)` for a type family `F`, as well as `TYPE (BoxedRep l)` where `l` is a type variable. This fix caused several other problems, as other parts of the compiler were relying on `isLiftedType_maybe` returning a `Just` value, and were now panicking after the above fix. There were two main situations in which panics occurred: 1. Issues involving the let/app invariant. To uphold that invariant, we need to know whether something is lifted or not. If we get an answer of `Nothing` from `isLiftedType_maybe`, then we don't know what to do. As this invariant isn't particularly invariant, we can change the affected functions to not panic, e.g. by behaving the same in the `Just False` case and in the `Nothing` case (meaning: no observable change in behaviour compared to before). 2. Typechecking of data (/newtype) constructor patterns. Some programs involving patterns with unknown representations were accepted, such as T20363. Now that we are stricter, this caused further issues, culminating in Core Lint errors. However, the behaviour was incorrect the whole time; the incorrectness only being revealed by this change, not triggered by it. This patch fixes this by overhauling where the representation polymorphism involving pattern matching are done. Instead of doing it in `tcMatches`, we instead ensure that the `matchExpected` functions such as `matchExpectedFunTys`, `matchActualFunTySigma`, `matchActualFunTysRho` allow return argument pattern types which have a fixed RuntimeRep (as defined in Note [Fixed RuntimeRep]). This ensures that the pattern matching code only ever handles types with a known runtime representation. One exception was that patterns with an unknown representation type could sneak in via `tcConPat`, which points to a missing representation-polymorphism check, which this patch now adds. This means that we now reject the program in #20363, at least until we implement PHASE 2 of FixedRuntimeRep (allowing type families in RuntimeRep positions). The aforementioned refactoring, in which checks have been moved to `matchExpected` functions, is a first step in implementing PHASE 2 for patterns. Fixes #20837
* TTG Pull AbsBinds and ABExport out of the main ASTromes2022-03-145-46/+36

* Refactor tcDeriving to generate tyfam insts before any bindingsRyan Scott2022-03-116-309/+347
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, there was an awful hack in `genInst` (now called `genInstBinds` after this patch) where we had to return a continutation rather than directly returning the bindings for a derived instance. This was done for staging purposes, as we had to first infer the instance contexts for derived instances and then feed these contexts into the continuations to ensure the generated instance bindings had accurate instance contexts. `Note [Staging of tcDeriving]` in `GHC.Tc.Deriving` described this confusing state of affairs. The root cause of this confusing design was the fact that `genInst` was trying to generate instance bindings and associated type family instances for derived instances simultaneously. This really isn't possible, however: as `Note [Staging of tcDeriving]` explains, one needs to have access to the associated type family instances before one can properly infer the instance contexts for derived instances. The use of continuation-returning style was an attempt to circumvent this dependency, but it did so in an awkward way. This patch detangles this awkwardness by splitting up `genInst` into two functions: `genFamInsts` (for associated type family instances) and `genInstBinds` (for instance bindings). Now, the `tcDeriving` function calls `genFamInsts` and brings all the family instances into scope before calling `genInstBinds`. This removes the need for the awkward continuation-returning style seen in the previous version of `genInst`, making the code easier to understand. There are some knock-on changes as well: 1. `hasStockDeriving` now needs to return two separate functions: one that describes how to generate family instances for a stock-derived instance, and another that describes how to generate the instance bindings. I factored out this pattern into a new `StockGenFns` data type. 2. While documenting `StockGenFns`, I realized that there was some inconsistency regarding which `StockGenFns` functions needed which arguments. In particular, the function in `GHC.Tc.Deriv.Generics` which generates `Rep(1)` instances did not take a `SrcSpan` like other `gen_*` functions did, and it included an extra `[Type]` argument that was entirely redundant. As a consequence, I refactored the code in `GHC.Tc.Deriv.Generics` to more closely resemble other `gen_*` functions. A happy result of all this is that all `StockGenFns` functions now take exactly the same arguments, which makes everything more uniform. This is purely a refactoring that should not have any effect on user-observable behavior. The new design paves the way for an eventual fix for #20719.
* Delete GenericKind_ in favor of GenericKind_DCRyan Scott2022-03-071-71/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When deriving a `Generic1` instance, we need to know what the last type variable of a data type is. Previously, there were two mechanisms to determine this information: * `GenericKind_`, where `Gen1_` stored the last type variable of a data type constructor (i.e., the `tyConTyVars`). * `GenericKind_DC`, where `Gen1_DC` stored the last universally quantified type variable in a data constructor (i.e., the `dataConUnivTyVars`). These had different use cases, as `GenericKind_` was used for generating `Rep(1)` instances, while `GenericKind_DC` was used for generating `from(1)` and `to(1)` implementations. This was already a bit confusing, but things went from confusing to outright wrong after !6976. This is because after !6976, the `deriving` machinery stopped using `tyConTyVars` in favor of `dataConUnivTyVars`. Well, everywhere with the sole exception of `GenericKind_`, which still continued to use `tyConTyVars`. This lead to disaster when deriving a `Generic1` instance for a GADT family instance, as the `tyConTyVars` do not match the `dataConUnivTyVars`. (See #21185.) The fix is to stop using `GenericKind_` and replace it with `GenericKind_DC`. For the most part, this proves relatively straightforward. Some highlights: * The `forgetArgVar` function was deleted entirely, as it no longer proved necessary after `GenericKind_`'s demise. * The substitution that maps from the last type variable to `Any` (see `Note [Generating a correctly typed Rep instance]`) had to be moved from `tc_mkRepTy` to `tc_mkRepFamInsts`, as `tc_mkRepTy` no longer has access to the last type variable. Fixes #21185.

* Don't allow Float#/Double# literal patternssheaf2022-03-051-5/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch does the following two things: 1. Fix the check in Core Lint to properly throw an error when it comes across Float#/Double# literal patterns. The check was incorrect before, because it expected the type to be Float/Double instead of Float#/Double#. 2. Add an error in the parser when the user writes a floating-point literal pattern such as `case x of { 2.0## -> ... }`. Fixes #21115

* Improve out-of-order inferred type variablessheaf2022-03-022-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't instantiate type variables for :type in `GHC.Tc.Gen.App.tcInstFun`, to avoid inconsistently instantianting `r1` but not `r2` in the type forall {r1} (a :: TYPE r1) {r2} (b :: TYPE r2). ... This fixes #21088. This patch also changes the primop pretty-printer to ensure that we put all the inferred type variables first. For example, the type of reallyUnsafePtrEquality# is now forall {l :: Levity} {k :: Levity} (a :: TYPE (BoxedRep l)) (b :: TYPE (BoxedRep k)). a -> b -> Int# This means we avoid running into issue #21088 entirely with the types of primops. Users can still write a type signature where the inferred type variables don't come first, however. This change to primops had a knock-on consequence, revealing that we were sometimes performing eta reduction on keepAlive#. This patch updates tryEtaReduce to avoid eta reducing functions with no binding, bringing it in line with tryEtaReducePrep, and thus fixing #21090.
* Introduce ConcreteTv metavariablessheaf2022-03-0222-732/+642
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Core Lint: ensure primops can be eta-expandedsheaf2022-02-262-12/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a check to Core Lint, checkCanEtaExpand, which ensures that primops and other wired-in functions with no binding such as unsafeCoerce#, oneShot, rightSection... can always be eta-expanded, by checking that the remaining argument types have a fixed RuntimeRep. Two subtleties came up: - the notion of arity in Core looks through newtypes, so we may need to unwrap newtypes in this check, - we want to avoid calling hasNoBinding on something whose unfolding we are in the process of linting, as this would cause a loop; to avoid this we add some information to the Core Lint environment that holds this information. Fixes #20480
* Error on anon wildcards in tcAnonWildCardOccsheaf2022-02-265-6/+227
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code in tcAnonWildCardOcc assumed that it could never encounter anonymous wildcards in illegal positions, because the renamer would have ruled them out. However, it's possible to sneak past the checks in the renamer by using Template Haskell. It isn't possible to simply pass on additional information when renaming Template Haskell brackets, because we don't know in advance in what context the bracket will be spliced in (see test case T15433b). So we accept that we might encounter these bogus wildcards in the typechecker and throw the appropriate error. This patch also migrates the error messages for illegal wildcards in types to use the diagnostic infrastructure. Fixes #15433
* Make typechecking unfoldings from interfaces lazierMatthew Pickering2022-02-261-20/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The old logic was unecessarily strict in loading unfoldings because when reading the unfolding we would case on the result of attempting to load the template before commiting to which type of unfolding we were producing. Hence trying to inspect any of the information about an unfolding would force the template to be loaded. This also removes a potentially hard to discover bug where if the template failed to be typechecked for some reason then we would just not return an unfolding. Instead we now panic so these bad situations which should never arise can be identified.
* GHCi: don't normalise partially instantiated typessheaf2022-02-251-7/+30
| | | | | | | | | This patch skips performing type normalisation when we haven't fully instantiated the type. That is, in tcRnExpr (used only for :type in GHCi), skip normalisation if the result type responds True to isSigmaTy. Fixes #20974
* Suggestions due to hlintMatthew Pickering2022-02-243-7/+2
| | | | | It turns out this job hasn't been running for quite a while (perhaps ever) so there are quite a few failures when running the linter locally.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
