* driver: Fix interaction of -Wunused-packages and reexported-modulesMatthew Pickering2021-07-132-4/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Spurious warnings were previously emitted if an import came from a reexport due to how -Wunused-packages were implemented. Removing the dependency would cause compilation to fail. The fix is to reimplement the warning a bit more directly, by searching for which package each import comes from using the normal module finding functions rather than consulting the EPS. This has the advantage that the check could be performed at any time after downsweep rather than also relying on a populated EPS. Fixes #19518 and #19777

* driver: Add implicit package dependencies for template-haskell packageMatthew Pickering2021-06-251-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When TemplateHaskellQuotes is enabled, we also generate programs which mention symbols from the template-haskell module. So that package is added conditionally if the extension is turned on. We should really do the same for other wired-in packages: * base * ghc-bignum * ghc-prim * rts When we link an executable, we must also link against these libraries. In accordance with every other package, these dependencies should be added into the direct dependencies for a module automatically and end up in the interface file to record the fact the object file was created by linking against these packages. Unfortunately it is not so easy to work out when symbols from each of these libraries ends up in the generated program. You might think that `base` would always be used but the `ghc-prim` package doesn't depend on `base`, so you have to be a bit careful and this futher enhancement is left to a future patch.
* profiling: Look in RHS of rules for cost centre ticksMatthew Pickering2021-06-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some obscure situations where the RHS of a rule can contain a tick which is not mentioned anywhere else in the program. If this happens you end up with an obscure linker error. The solution is quite simple, traverse the RHS of rules to also look for ticks. It turned out to be easier to implement if the traversal was moved into CoreTidy rather than at the start of code generation because there we still had easy access to the rules. ./StreamD.o(.text+0x1b9f2): error: undefined reference to 'StreamK_mkStreamFromStream_HPC_cc' ./MArray.o(.text+0xbe83): error: undefined reference to 'StreamK_mkStreamFromStream_HPC_cc' Main.o(.text+0x6fdb): error: undefined reference to 'StreamK_mkStreamFromStream_HPC_cc'
* FinderCache: Also cache file hashing in interface file checksMatthew Pickering2021-06-092-6/+29
| | | | | | | | | | Now that we hash object files to decide when to recompile due to TH, this can make a big difference as each interface file in a project will contain reference to the object files of all package dependencies. Especially when these are statically linked, hashing them can add up. The cache is invalidated when `depanalPartial` is called, like the normal finder cache.
* Make Logger independent of DynFlagsSylvain Henry2021-06-071-42/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Driver Rework PatchMatthew Pickering2021-06-035-21/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch comprises of four different but closely related ideas. The net result is fixing a large number of open issues with the driver whilst making it simpler to understand. 1. Use the hash of the source file to determine whether the source file has changed or not. This makes the recompilation checking more robust to modern build systems which are liable to copy files around changing their modification times. 2. Remove the concept of a "stable module", a stable module was one where the object file was older than the source file, and all transitive dependencies were also stable. Now we don't rely on the modification time of the source file, the notion of stability is moot. 3. Fix TH/plugin recompilation after the removal of stable modules. The TH recompilation check used to rely on stable modules. Now there is a uniform and simple way, we directly track the linkables which were loaded into the interpreter whilst compiling a module. This is an over-approximation but more robust wrt package dependencies changing. 4. Fix recompilation checking for dynamic object files. Now we actually check if the dynamic object file exists when compiling with -dynamic-too Fixes #19774 #19771 #19758 #17434 #11556 #9121 #8211 #16495 #7277 #16093
* Refactor driver code; de-duplicate and split APIs (#14095, !5555)Divam2021-05-251-11/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit does some de-duplication of logic between the one-shot and --make modes, and splitting of some of the APIs so that its easier to do the fine-grained parallelism implementation. This is the first part of the implementation plan as described in #14095 * compileOne now uses the runPhase pipeline for most of the work. The Interpreter backend handling has been moved to the runPhase. * hscIncrementalCompile has been broken down into multiple APIs. * haddock submodule bump: Rename of variables in html-test ref: This is caused by a change in ModDetails in case of NoBackend. Now the initModDetails is used to recreate the ModDetails from interface and in-memory ModDetails is not used.
* Remove transitive information about modules and packages from interface filesMatthew Pickering2021-05-192-21/+118
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit modifies interface files so that *only* direct information about modules and packages is stored in the interface file. * Only direct module and direct package dependencies are stored in the interface files. * Trusted packages are now stored separately as they need to be checked transitively. * hs-boot files below the compiled module in the home module are stored so that eps_is_boot can be calculated in one-shot mode without loading all interface files in the home package. * The transitive closure of signatures is stored separately This is important for two reasons * Less recompilation is needed, as motivated by #16885, a lot of redundant compilation was triggered when adding new imports deep in the module tree as all the parent interface files had to be redundantly updated. * Checking an interface file is cheaper because you don't have to perform a transitive traversal to check the dependencies are up-to-date. In the code, places where we would have used the transitive closure, we instead compute the necessary transitive closure. The closure is not computed very often, was already happening in checkDependencies, and was already happening in getLinkDeps.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch we switch from reading the globally installed platformConstants file to reading the DerivedConstants.h header file that is bundled in the RTS unit. When we build the RTS unit itself, we get it from its includes directories. The new parser is more efficient and strict than the Read instance for PlatformConstants and we get about 2.2MB less allocations in every cases. However it only really shows in tests that don't allocate much, hence the following metric decreases.

* Add -finfo-table-map which maps info tables to source positionsMatthew Pickering2021-03-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new flag embeds a lookup table from the address of an info table to information about that info table. The main interface for consulting the map is the `lookupIPE` C function > InfoProvEnt * lookupIPE(StgInfoTable *info) The `InfoProvEnt` has the following structure: > typedef struct InfoProv_{ > char * table_name; > char * closure_desc; > char * ty_desc; > char * label; > char * module; > char * srcloc; > } InfoProv; > > typedef struct InfoProvEnt_ { > StgInfoTable * info; > InfoProv prov; > struct InfoProvEnt_ *link; > } InfoProvEnt; The source positions are approximated in a similar way to the source positions for DWARF debugging information. They are only approximate but in our experience provide a good enough hint about where the problem might be. It is therefore recommended to use this flag in conjunction with `-g<n>` for more accurate locations. The lookup table is also emitted into the eventlog when it is available as it is intended to be used with the `-hi` profiling mode. Using this flag will significantly increase the size of the resulting object file but only by a factor of 2-3x in our experience.

* Refactor LoggerSylvain Henry2021-02-131-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Put hole instantiation typechecking in the module graph and fix driver batch ↵John Ericson2020-12-284-47/+161

Before this change, it worked that `tcRnInstantiateSignature` was called after typechecking the argument module, see `HscMain.hsc_typecheck`, while `tcRnCheckUnit` was called in `unsweep'` where-bound in `GhcMake.upsweep`. `tcRnCheckUnit` was called once per each instantiation once all the argument sigs were processed. This was done with simple "to do" and "already done" accumulators in the fold. `parUpsweep` did not implement the change. With this change, `tcRnCheckUnit` instead is associated with its own node in the `ModuleGraph`. Nodes are now: ```haskell data ModuleGraphNode -- | Instantiation nodes track the instantiation of other units -- (backpack dependencies) with the holes (signatures) of the current package. = InstantiationNode InstantiatedUnit -- | There is a module summary node for each module, signature, and boot module being built. | ModuleNode ExtendedModSummary ``` instead of just `ModSummary`; the `InstantiationNode` case is the instantiation of a unit to be checked. The dependencies of such nodes are the same "free holes" as was checked with the accumulator before. Both versions of upsweep on such a node call `tcRnCheckUnit`. There previously was an `implicitRequirements` function which would crawl through every non-current-unit module dep to look for all free holes (signatures) to add as dependencies in `GHC.Driver.Make`. But this is no good: we shouldn't be looking for transitive anything when building the graph: the graph should only have immediate edges and the scheduler takes care that all transitive requirements are met. So `GHC.Driver.Make` stopped using `implicitRequirements`, and instead uses a new `implicitRequirementsShallow`, which just returns the outermost instantiation node (or module name if the immediate dependency is itself a signature). The signature dependencies are just treated like any other imported module, but the module ones then go in a list stored in the `ModuleNode` next to the `ModSummary` as the "extra backpack dependencies". When `downsweep` creates the mod summaries, it adds this information too. ------ There is one code quality, and possible correctness thing left: In addition to `implicitRequirements` there is `findExtraSigImports`, which says something like "if you are an instantiation argument (you are substituted or a signature), you need to import its things too". This is a little non-local so I am not quite sure how to get rid of it in `GHC.Driver.Make`, but we probably should eventually. First though, let's try to make a test case that observes that we don't do this, lest it actually be unneeded. Until then, I'm happy to leave it as is. ------ Beside the ability to use `-j`, the other major user-visibile side effect of this change is that that the --make progress log now includes "Instantiating" messages for these new nodes. Those also are numbered like module nodes and count towards the total. ------ Fixes #17188 Updates hackage submomdule Metric Increase: T12425 T13035
* Move Unit related fields from DynFlags to HscEnvSylvain Henry2020-12-145-404/+287
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

* Refactor -dynamic-too handlingSylvain Henry2020-11-061-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Don't modify DynFlags (too much) for -dynamic-too: now when we generate dynamic outputs for "-dynamic-too", we only set "dynamicNow" boolean field in DynFlags instead of modifying several other fields. These fields now have accessors that take dynamicNow into account. 2) Use DynamicTooState ADT to represent -dynamic-too state. It's much clearer than the undocumented "DynamicTooConditional" that was used before. As a result, we can finally remove the hscs_iface_dflags field in HscRecomp. There was a comment on this field saying: "FIXME (osa): I don't understand why this is necessary, but I spent almost two days trying to figure this out and I couldn't .. perhaps someone who understands this code better will remove this later." I don't fully understand the details, but it was needed because of the changes made to the DynFlags for -dynamic-too. There is still something very dubious in GHC.Iface.Recomp: we have to disable the "dynamicNow" flag at some point for some Backpack's "heinous hack" to continue to work. It may be because interfaces for indefinite units are always non-dynamic, or because we mix and match dynamic and non-dynamic interfaces (#9176), or something else, who knows?

* Split GHC.Driver.TypesSylvain Henry2020-10-2913-0/+2631
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Remove "Ord FastString" instanceSylvain Henry2020-09-014-17/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FastStrings can be compared in 2 ways: by Unique or lexically. We don't want to bless one particular way with an "Ord" instance because it leads to bugs (#18562) or to suboptimal code (e.g. using lexical comparison while a Unique comparison would suffice). UTF-8 encoding has the advantage that sorting strings by their encoded bytes also sorts them by their Unicode code points, without having to decode the actual code points. BUT GHC uses Modified UTF-8 which diverges from UTF-8 by encoding \0 as 0xC080 instead of 0x00 (to avoid null bytes in the middle of a String so that the string can still be null-terminated). This patch adds a new `utf8CompareShortByteString` function that performs sorting by bytes but that also takes Modified UTF-8 into account. It is much more performant than decoding the strings into [Char] to perform comparisons (which we did in the previous patch). Bump haddock submodule

* Refactor UnitId pretty-printingSylvain Henry2020-08-266-66/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we pretty-print a UnitId for the user, we try to map it back to its origin package name, version and component to print "package-version:component" instead of some hash. The UnitId type doesn't carry these information, so we have to look into a UnitState to find them. This is why the Outputable instance of UnitId used `sdocWithDynFlags` in order to access the `unitState` field of DynFlags. This is wrong for several reasons: 1. The DynFlags are accessed when the message is printed, not when it is generated. So we could imagine that the unitState may have changed in-between. Especially if we want to allow unit unloading. 2. We want GHC to support several independent sessions at once, hence several UnitState. The current approach supposes there is a unique UnitState as a UnitId doesn't indicate which UnitState to use. See the Note [Pretty-printing UnitId] in GHC.Unit for the new approach implemented by this patch. One step closer to remove `sdocDynFlags` field from `SDocContext` (#10143). Fix #18124. Also fix some Backpack code to use SDoc instead of String.

* Add HomeUnit typeSylvain Henry2020-08-136-137/+351
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since Backpack the "home unit" is much more involved than what it was before (just an identifier obtained with `-this-unit-id`). Now it is used in conjunction with `-component-id` and `-instantiated-with` to configure module instantiations and to detect if we are type-checking an indefinite unit or compiling a definite one. This patch introduces a new HomeUnit datatype which is much easier to understand. Moreover to make GHC support several packages in the same instances, we will need to handle several HomeUnits so having a dedicated (documented) type is helpful. Finally in #14335 we will also need to handle the case where we have no HomeUnit at all because we are only loading existing interfaces for plugins which live in a different space compared to units used to produce target code. Several functions will have to be refactored to accept "Maybe HomeUnit" parameters instead of implicitly querying the HomeUnit fields in DynFlags. Having a dedicated type will make this easier.
