SRT analysis is extended to support static data, and Cmm generator is modified to allow generating static_link fields after SRT analysis. This also fixes `-fcatch-bottoms`, which introduces error calls in case expressions in CorePrep, which runs *after* CoreTidy (which is where we decide on CafInfos) and turns previously non-CAFFY things into CAFFY.

-0.0% Manual inspection of programs in testsuite/tests/programs --------------------------------------------------------- I built these programs with a bunch of dump flags and `-O` and compared STG, Cmm, and Asm dumps and file sizes. (Below the numbers in parenthesis show number of modules in the program) These programs have identical compiler (same .hi and .o sizes, STG, and Cmm and Asm dumps): - Queens (1), andre_monad (1), cholewo-eval (2), cvh_unboxing (3), andy_cherry (7), fun_insts (1), hs-boot (4), fast2haskell (2), jl_defaults (1), jq_readsPrec (1), jules_xref (1), jtod_circint (4), jules_xref2 (1), lennart_range (1), lex (1), life_space_leak (1), bargon-mangler-bug (7), record_upd (1), rittri (1), sanders_array (1), strict_anns (1), thurston-module-arith (2), okeefe_neural (1), joao-circular (6), 10queens (1) Programs with different compiler outputs: - jl_defaults (1): For some reason GHC HEAD marks a lot of top-level `[Int]` closures as CAFFY for no reason. With this patch we no longer make them CAFFY and generate less SRT entries. For some reason Main.o is slightly larger with this patch (1.3%) and the executable sizes are the same. (I'd expect both to be smaller) - launchbury (1): Same as jl_defaults: top-level `[Int]` closures marked as CAFFY for no reason. Similarly `Main.o` is 1.4% larger but the executable sizes are the same. - galois_raytrace (13): Differences are in the Parse module. There are a lot, but some of the changes are caused by the fact that for some reason (I think a bug) GHC HEAD marks the dictionary for `Functor Identity` as CAFFY. Parse.o is 0.4% larger, the executable size is the same. - north_array: We now generate less SRT entries because some of array primops used in this program like `NewArrayOp` get eliminated during Stg-to-Cmm and turn some CAFFY things into non-CAFFY. Main.o gets 24% larger (9224 bytes from 9000 bytes), executable sizes are the same. - seward-space-leak: Difference in this program is better shown by this smaller example: module Lib where data CDS = Case [CDS] [(Int, CDS)] | Call CDS CDS instance Eq CDS where Case sels1 rets1 == Case sels2 rets2 = sels1 == sels2 && rets1 == rets2 Call a1 b1 == Call a2 b2 = a1 == a2 && b1 == b2 _ == _ = False In this program GHC HEAD builds a new SRT for the recursive group of `(==)`, `(/=)` and the dictionary closure. Then `/=` points to `==` in its SRT field, and `==` uses the SRT object as its SRT. With this patch we use the closure for `/=` as the SRT and add `==` there. Then `/=` gets an empty SRT field and `==` points to `/=` in its SRT field. This change looks fine to me. Main.o gets 0.07% larger, executable sizes are identical. head.hackage ------------ head.hackage's CI script builds 428 packages from Hackage using this patch with no failures. Compiler performance -------------------- The compiler perf tests report that the compiler allocates slightly more (worst case observed so far is 4%). However most programs in the test suite are small, single file programs. To benchmark compiler performance on something more realistic I build Cabal (the library, 236 modules) with different optimisation levels. For the "max residency" row I run GHC with `+RTS -s -A100k -i0 -h` for more accurate numbers. Other rows are generated with just `-s`. (This is because `-i0` causes running GC much more frequently and as a result "bytes copied" gets inflated by more than 25x in some cases) * -O0 | | GHC HEAD | This MR | Diff | | --------------- | -------------- | -------------- | ------ | | Bytes allocated | 54,413,350,872 | 54,701,099,464 | +0.52% | | Bytes copied | 4,926,037,184 | 4,990,638,760 | +1.31% | | Max residency | 421,225,624 | 424,324,264 | +0.73% | * -O1 | | GHC HEAD | This MR | Diff | | --------------- | --------------- | --------------- | ------ | | Bytes allocated | 245,849,209,992 | 246,562,088,672 | +0.28% | | Bytes copied | 26,943,452,560 | 27,089,972,296 | +0.54% | | Max residency | 982,643,440 | 991,663,432 | +0.91% | * -O2 | | GHC HEAD | This MR | Diff | | --------------- | --------------- | --------------- | ------ | | Bytes allocated | 291,044,511,408 | 291,863,910,912 | +0.28% | | Bytes copied | 37,044,237,616 | 36,121,690,472 | -2.49% | | Max residency | 1,071,600,328 | 1,086,396,256 | +1.38% | Extra compiler allocations -------------------------- Runtime allocations of programs are as reported above (NoFib section). The compiler now allocates more than before. Main source of allocation in this patch compared to base commit is the new SRT algorithm (GHC.Cmm.Info.Build). Below is some of the extra work we do with this patch, numbers generated by profiled stage 2 compiler when building a pathological case (the test 'ManyConstructors') with '-O2': - We now sort the final STG for a module, which means traversing the entire program, generating free variable set for each top-level binding, doing SCC analysis, and re-ordering the program. In ManyConstructors this step allocates 97,889,952 bytes. - We now do SRT analysis on static data, which in a program like ManyConstructors causes analysing 10,000 bindings that we would previously just skip. This step allocates 70,898,352 bytes. - We now maintain an SRT map for the entire module as we compile Cmm groups: data ModuleSRTInfo = ModuleSRTInfo { ... , moduleSRTMap :: SRTMap } (SRTMap is just a strict Map from the 'containers' library) This map gets an entry for most bindings in a module (exceptions are THUNKs and CAFFY static functions). For ManyConstructors this map gets 50015 entries. - Once we're done with code generation we generate a NameSet from SRTMap for the non-CAFFY names in the current module. This set gets the same number of entries as the SRTMap. - Finally we update CafInfos in ModDetails for the non-CAFFY Ids, using the NameSet generated in the previous step. This usually does the least amount of allocation among the work listed here. Only place with this patch where we do less work in the CAF analysis in the tidying pass (CoreTidy). However that doesn't save us much, as the pass still needs to traverse the whole program and update IdInfos for other reasons. Only thing we don't here do is the `hasCafRefs` pass over the RHS of bindings, which is a stateless pass that returns a boolean value, so it doesn't allocate much.

* Remove dll-split.Tamar Christina2017-08-291-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes dll-split from the code base, the reason is dll-split no longer makes any sense. It was designed to split a dll in two, but we now already have many more symbols than would fit inside two dlls. So we need a third one. This means there's no point in having to maintain this list as it'll never work anyway and the solution isn't scalable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: See https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ImplementingTreesThatGrow This commit prepares the ground for a full extensible AST, by replacing the type parameter for the hsSyn data types with a set of indices into type families, data GhcPs -- ^ Index for GHC parser output data GhcRn -- ^ Index for GHC renamer output data GhcTc -- ^ Index for GHC typechecker output These are now used instead of `RdrName`, `Name` and `Id`/`TcId`/`Var` Where the original name type is required in a polymorphic context, this is accessible via the IdP type family, defined as type family IdP p type instance IdP GhcPs = RdrName type instance IdP GhcRn = Name type instance IdP GhcTc = Id These types are declared in the new 'hsSyn/HsExtension.hs' module. To gain a better understanding of the extension mechanism, it has been applied to `HsLit` only, also replacing the `SourceText` fields in them with extension types. To preserve extension generality, a type class is introduced to capture the `SourceText` interface, which must be honoured by all of the extension points which originally had a `SourceText`. The class is defined as class HasSourceText a where -- Provide setters to mimic existing constructors noSourceText :: a sourceText :: String -> a setSourceText :: SourceText -> a getSourceText :: a -> SourceText And the constraint is captured in `SourceTextX`, which is a constraint type listing all the extension points that make use of the class.

* Add hook for creating ghci external interpreterAlan Zimmerman2016-09-091-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: The external interpreter is launched by calling 'System.Process.createProcess' with a 'CreateProcess' parameter. The current value for this has the 'std_in', 'std_out' and 'std_err' fields use the default of 'Inherit', meaning that the remote interpreter shares the stdio with the original ghc/ghci process. This patch introduces a new hook to the DynFlags, which has an opportunity to override the 'CreateProcess' fields, launch the process, and retrieve the stdio handles actually used. So if a ghci external interpreter session is launched from the GHC API the stdio can be redirected if required, which is useful for tooling/IDE integration.

* Replace calls to `ptext . sLit` with `text`Jan Stolarek2016-01-181-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Remote GHCi, -fexternal-interpreterSimon Marlow2015-12-171-3/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: (Apologies for the size of this patch, I couldn't make a smaller one that was validate-clean and also made sense independently) (Some of this code is derived from GHCJS.) This commit adds support for running interpreted code (for GHCi and TemplateHaskell) in a separate process. The functionality is experimental, so for now it is off by default and enabled by the flag -fexternal-interpreter. Reaosns we want this: * compiling Template Haskell code with -prof does not require building the code without -prof first * when GHC itself is profiled, it can interpret unprofiled code, and the same applies to dynamic linking. We would no longer need to force -dynamic-too with TemplateHaskell, and we can load ordinary objects into a dynamically-linked GHCi (and vice versa). * An unprofiled GHCi can load and run profiled code, which means it can use the stack-trace functionality provided by profiling without taking the performance hit on the compiler that profiling would entail. Amongst other things; see https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/RemoteGHCi for more details. Notes on the implementation are in Note [Remote GHCi] in the new module compiler/ghci/GHCi.hs. It probably needs more documenting, feel free to suggest things I could elaborate on. Things that are not currently implemented for -fexternal-interpreter: * The GHCi debugger * :set prog, :set args in GHCi * `recover` in Template Haskell * Redirecting stdin/stdout for the external process These are all doable, I just wanted to get to a working validate-clean patch first. I also haven't done any benchmarking yet. I expect there to be slight hit to link times for byte code and some penalty due to having to serialize/deserialize TH syntax, but I don't expect it to be a serious problem. There's also lots of low-hanging fruit in the byte code generator/linker that we could exploit to speed things up. Test Plan: * validate * I've run parts of the test suite with EXTRA_HC_OPTS=-fexternal-interpreter, notably tests/ghci and tests/th. There are a few failures due to the things not currently implemented (see above).

* Deduplicate one-shot/make compile paths.Edward Z. Yang2015-10-051-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: We had a duplicate copy of the code for --make and for -c which was a pain. The call graph looked something like this: compileOne -> genericHscCompileGetFrontendResult -> genericHscFrontend hscCompileOneShot ---^ with genericHscCompileGetFrontendResult and hscCompileOneShot duplicating logic for deciding whether or not recompilation was needed. This patchset fixes it, so now everything goes through this call-chain: compileOne (--make entry point) Calls hscIncrementCompile, invokes the pipeline to do codegen and sets up linkables. hscIncrementalCompile (-c entry point) Calls hscIncrementalFrontend, and then simplifying, desugaring, and writing out the interface. hscIncrementalFrontend Performs recompilation avoidance, if recompilation needed, does parses typechecking. I also cleaned up some of the MergeBoot nonsense by introducing a FrontendResult type. NB: this BREAKS #8101 again, because I can't unconditionally desugar due to Haddock barfing on lint, see #10600 Signed-off-by: Edward Z.

* Refactor the handling of quasi-quotesSimon Peyton Jones2015-02-101-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Trac #10047 points out, a quasi-quotation [n|...blah...|] is supposed to behave exactly like $(n "...blah..."). But it doesn't! This was outright wrong: quasiquotes were being run even inside brackets. Now that TH supports both typed and untyped splices, a quasi-quote is properly regarded as a particular syntax for an untyped splice. But apart from that they should be treated the same. So this patch refactors the handling of quasiquotes to do just that. The changes touch quite a lot of files, but mostly in a routine way. The biggest changes by far are in RnSplice, and more minor changes in TcSplice. These are the places where there was real work to be done. Everything else is routine knock-on changes. * No more QuasiQuote forms in declarations, expressions, types, etc. So we get rid of these data constructors * HsBinds.QuasiQuoteD * HsExpr.HsSpliceE * HsPat.QuasiQuotePat * HsType.HsQuasiQuoteTy * We get rid of the HsQuasiQuote type altogether * Instead, we augment the HsExpr.HsSplice type to have three consructors, for the three types of splice: * HsTypedSplice * HsUntypedSplice * HsQuasiQuote There are some related changes in the data types in HsExpr near HsSplice. Specifically: PendingRnSplice, PendingTcSplice, UntypedSpliceFlavour. * In Hooks, we combine rnQuasiQuoteHook and rnRnSpliceHook into one. A smaller, clearer interface. * We have to update the Haddock submodule, to accommodate the hsSyn changes
* add runMeta hookLuite Stegeman2014-12-201-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: The runMeta hook can be used to override how metaprogramming expressions are evaluated. It makes the metaprogramming request types explicit and has access to the TcM monad. This makes it a much more convenient starting point for implementing out of process Template Haskell than the existing hscCompileCoreExpr hook.

* Fix dll-split problem with patch 'Make Core Lint check for locally-bound ↵Simon Peyton Jones2014-12-151-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GlobalId' The trouble was that my changes made a lot more files transitively link with DynFlags, which is the root module for the revolting Windows dll-split stuff. Anyway this patch fixes it, in a good way: - Make GHC/Hooks *not* import DsMonad, because DsMonad imports too much other stuff (notably tcLookup variants). Really, Hooks depends only on *types* not *code*. - To do this I need the DsM type, and the types it depends on, not to be part of DsMonad. So I moved it to TcRnTypes, which is where the similar pieces for the TcM and IfM monads live. - We can then delete DsMonad.hs-boot - There are a bunch of knock-on change, of no great significance
