* Fix handling of package-db entries in .ghc.environment files, etc.Duncan Coutts2016-08-301-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously interpreting the content of the .ghc.env files was done after the step that loaded the available package dbs. This meant that setting the package db flags was ineffective. This patch moves interpreting the env files before loading of the package dbs. Also, the package-db entries refer to files. Allow spaces in these file names. Also treat as comments lines beginning with "--". These are pretty minor fixes in a feature that up 'til now has been essentially unused (witness no bug report about it), so there's very low risk here. If we can get this into 8.0.2 then cabal can start generating the .ghc.environment files, otherwise it cannot as it needs the working package-db entries, to be able to refer to local package dbs in the build tree (or cabal nix store). Test Plan: Manually create example .ghc.env files run ghci; :show packages Done this. It works.

* Implement unboxed sum primitive typeÖmer Sinan Ağacan2016-07-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: This patch implements primitive unboxed sum types, as described in https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/UnpackedSumTypes. Main changes are: - Add new syntax for unboxed sums types, terms and patterns. Hidden behind `-XUnboxedSums`. - Add unlifted unboxed sum type constructors and data constructors, extend type and pattern checkers and desugarer. - Add new RuntimeRep for unboxed sums. - Extend unarise pass to translate unboxed sums to unboxed tuples right before code generation. - Add `StgRubbishArg` to `StgArg`, and a new type `CmmArg` for better code generation when sum values are involved. - Add user manual section for unboxed sums. Some other changes: - Generalize `UbxTupleRep` to `MultiRep` and `UbxTupAlt` to `MultiValAlt` to be able to use those with both sums and tuples. - Don't use `tyConPrimRep` in `isVoidTy`: `tyConPrimRep` is really wrong, given an `Any` `TyCon`, there's no way to tell what its kind is, but `kindPrimRep` and in turn `tyConPrimRep` returns `PtrRep`. - Fix some bugs on the way: #12375. Not included in this patch: - Update Haddock for new the new unboxed sum syntax. - `TemplateHaskell` support is left as future work. For reviewers: - Front-end code is mostly trivial and adapted from unboxed tuple code for type checking, pattern checking, renaming, desugaring etc. - Main translation routines are in `RepType` and `UnariseStg`. Documentation in `UnariseStg` should be enough for understanding what's going on. Credits: - Johan Tibell wrote the initial front-end and interface file extensions. - Simon Peyton Jones reviewed this patch many times, wrote some code, and helped with debugging.

* Warn about simplifiable class constraintsSimon Peyton Jones2016-04-221-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provoked by Trac #11948, this patch adds a new warning to GHC -Wsimplifiable-class-constraints It warns if you write a class constraint in a type signature that can be simplified by an existing instance declaration. Almost always this means you should simplify it right now; type inference is very fragile without it, as #11948 shows. I've put the warning as on-by-default, but I suppose that if there are howls of protest we can move it out (as happened for -Wredundant-constraints. It actually found an example of an over-complicated context in CmmNode. Quite a few tests use these weird contexts to trigger something else, so I had to suppress the warning in those. The 'haskeline' library has a few occurrences of the warning (which I think should be fixed), so I switched it off for that library in warnings.mk. The warning itself is done in TcValidity.check_class_pred. HOWEVER, when type inference fails we get a type error; and the error suppresses the (informative) warning. So as things stand, the warning only happens when it doesn't cause a problem. Not sure what to do about this, but this patch takes us forward, I think.

* Reduce default for -fmax-pmcheck-iterations from 1e7 to 2e6Herbert Valerio Riedel2016-04-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit 28f951edfe50ea5182065144340061ec326781f5 introduced the `-fmax-pmcheck-iterations` flag and set the default limit to 1e7 iterations. However, this value is still high enough that it can result GHC to exhibit memory spikes beyond 1 GiB of RAM usage (heap profile showed several `(:)`s, as well as `THUNK_2_0`, and `PmCon` during the memory spikes) A value of 2e6 seems to be a safer upper bound which still manages to let the checker not run into the limit in most cases.

* Default to -fno-show-warning-groups (re #10752)Herbert Valerio Riedel2016-02-271-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As `-fno-show-warning-groups` shows associated warning groups regardless of whether the respective warning group flag as been passed on the CLI, the warning-group information may be confusing to users. At this point, `-fshow-warning-groups` is useful mostly to GHC developers and possibly GHC users who want to see which warning groups an emitted warning is part of. (Btw, this is particularly interesting in combination with `-Weverything` which enables *every* warning flag known to GHC.) Consequently, starting with this commit, one has to opt-in via `-fshow-warning-groups` for GHC to show warning groups. In order to reduce the testsuite delta in this commit, the `-fshow-warning-groups` flag has been added to TEST_HC_OPTS.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Overhaul the Overhauled Pattern Match Checker * Changed the representation of Value Set Abstractions. Instead of using a prefix tree, we now use a list of Value Vector Abstractions. The set of constraints Delta for every Value Vector Abstraction is the oracle state so that we solve everything only once. * Instead of doing everything lazily, we prune at once (and in general everything is much stricter). Hence, an example written with pattern guards is checked in almost the same time as the equivalent with pattern matching. * Do not store the covered and the divergent sets at all. Since what we only need is a yes/no (does this clause cover anything? Does it force any thunk?) We just keep a boolean for each. * Removed flags `-Wtoo-many-guards` and `-ffull-guard-reasoning`. Replaced with `fmax-pmcheck-iterations=n`. Still debatable what should the default `n` be. * When a guard is for sure not going to contribute anything, we treat it as such: The oracle is not called and cases `CGuard`, `UGuard` and `DGuard` from the paper are not happening at all (the generation of a fresh variable, the unfolding of the pattern list etc.). his combined with the above seems to be enough to drop the memory increase for test T783 down to 18.7%. * Do not export function `dsPmWarn` (it is now called directly from within `checkSingle` and `checkMatches`). * Make `PmExprVar` hold a `Name` instead of an `Id`. The term oracle does not handle type information so using `Id` was a waste of time/space. * Added testcases T11195, T11303b (data families) and T11374 The patch addresses at least the following: Trac #11195, #11276, #11303, #11374, #11162 Test Plan: validate Reviewers: goldfire, bgamari, hvr, austin Subscribers: simonpj, thomie Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1795

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements/completes the current basic warning sets to provide the following tower of warning sets (i.e. each line subsumes the warnings from the sets listed below): - `-Weverything` - `-Wall` - `-Wextra` (alias of `-W`) - `-Wdefault` So for each of flags there's also a complement `-Wno-...` flag, which subtracts the given set from the current enabled-warnings state. Thus, we can now easily perform simple set subtraction operations, as warning flags are evaluated from left-to-right on the command line. So e.g. - `-Weverything -Wno-all -Wno-compat` enables *all* warnings not enabled by `-Wall` and `-Wcompat`. - `-Wextra -Wno-default` only warnings that `-Wextra` provides beyond the default warnings.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Previously, `-Wunused-matches` would fire whenever it detected unused type variables in a type family or data family instance. This can be annoying for users who wish to use type variable names as documentation, as being `-Wall`-compliant would mean that they'd have to prefix many of their type variable names with underscores, making the documentation harder to read.

However, it was missed during code-review that almost all existing warning flags use a plural-form, so for consistency this commit renames that warning flag to `-Wmissing-monadfail-instances`.

* Implement `-Wnoncanonical-monadfail-instances` warningHerbert Valerio Riedel2016-01-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The MonadFail proposal implemented so far via #10751 only warns about missing `MonadFail` instances based on existence of failible pattern matches in `do`-blocks. However, based on the noncanonical Monad warnings implemented via #11150 we can provide a different mechanism for detecting missing `MonadFail` instances quite cheaply. That is, by checking for canonical `fail` definitions. In the case of `Monad`/`MonadFail`, we define the canonical implementation of `fail` to be such that the soft-deprecated method shall (iff overridden) be defined in terms of the non-deprecated method. Consequently, in case of `MonadFail`, the `Monad(fail)` method shall be defined as alias of the `MonadFail(fail)` method. This allows us at some distant point in the future to remove `fail` from the `Monad` class, while having GHC ignore/tolerate such literal canonical method definitions.

* Switch from -this-package-key to -this-unit-id.Edward Z. Yang2016-01-191-14/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A small cosmetic change, but we have to do a bit of work to actually support it: - Cabal submodule update, so that Cabal passes us -this-unit-id when we ask for it. This includes a Cabal renaming to be consistent with Unit ID, which makes ghc-pkg a bit more scrutable. - Build system is updated to use -this-unit-id rather than -this-package-key, to avoid deprecation warnings. Needs a version test so I resurrected the old test we had (sorry rwbarton!) - I've *undeprecated* -package-name, so that we are in the same state as GHC 7.10, since the "correct" flag will have only entered circulation in GHC 8.0. - I removed -package-key. Since we didn't deprecate -package-id I think this should not cause any problems for users; they can just change their code to use -package-id. - The package database is indexed by UNIT IDs, not component IDs. I updated the naming here. - I dropped the signatures field from ExposedModule; nothing was using it, and instantiatedWith from the package database field. - ghc-pkg was updated to use unit ID nomenclature, I removed the -package-key flags but I decided not to add any new flags for now.

* Replace calls to `ptext . sLit` with `text`Jan Stolarek2016-01-181-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: In the past the canonical way for constructing an SDoc string literal was the composition `ptext . sLit`. But for some time now we have function `text` that does the same. Plus it has some rules that optimize its runtime behaviour. This patch takes all uses of `ptext . sLit` in the compiler and replaces them with calls to `text`. The main benefits of this patch are clener (shorter) code and less dependencies between module, because many modules now do not need to import `FastString`. I don't expect any performance benefits - we mostly use SDocs to report errors and it seems there is little to be gained here.
