* compiler: introduce custom "GhcPrelude" PreludeHerbert Valerio Riedel2017-09-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This switches the compiler/ component to get compiled with -XNoImplicitPrelude and a `import GhcPrelude` is inserted in all modules. This is motivated by the upcoming "Prelude" re-export of `Semigroup((<>))` which would cause lots of name clashes in every modulewhich imports also `Outputable` Reviewers: austin, goldfire, bgamari, alanz, simonmar Reviewed By: bgamari Subscribers: goldfire, rwbarton, thomie, mpickering, bgamari Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D3989
* Speed up compilation of profiling stubsBen Gamari2017-08-161-15/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here we encode the cost centre list as static data. This means that the initialization stubs are small functions which should be easy for GCC to compile, even with optimization. Fixes #7960.

* Replace calls to `ptext . sLit` with `text`Jan Stolarek2016-01-181-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Some alpha renamingIan Lynagh2012-10-161-1/+1
| | | | | Mostly d -> g (matching DynFlag -> GeneralFlag). Also renamed if* to when*, matching the Haskell if/when names
* Make -fscc-profiling a dynamic flagIan Lynagh2012-07-241-4/+5
| | | | All the flags that 'ways' imply are now dynamic
* Remove some more Platform argumentsIan Lynagh2012-06-131-3/+2

* Remove PlatformOutputableIan Lynagh2012-06-131-3/+3
| | | | | We can now get the Platform from the DynFlags inside an SDoc, so we no longer need to pass the Platform in.

* Change the way module initialisation is done (#3252, #4417)Simon Marlow2011-04-121-0/+45
Previously the code generator generated small code fragments labelled with __stginit_M for each module M, and these performed whatever initialisation was necessary for that module and recursively invoked the initialisation functions for imported modules. This appraoch had drawbacks: - FFI users had to call hs_add_root() to ensure the correct initialisation routines were called. This is a non-standard, and ugly, API. - unless we were using -split-objs, the __stginit dependencies would entail linking the whole transitive closure of modules imported, whether they were actually used or not. In an extreme case (#4387, #4417), a module from GHC might be imported for use in Template Haskell or an annotation, and that would force the whole of GHC to be needlessly linked into the final executable. So now instead we do our initialisation with C functions marked with __attribute__((constructor)), which are automatically invoked at program startup time (or DSO load-time). The C initialisers are emitted into the stub.c file. This means that every time we compile with -prof or -hpc, we now get a stub file, but thanks to #3687 that is now invisible to the user. There are some refactorings in the RTS (particularly for HPC) to handle the fact that initialisers now get run earlier than they did before. The __stginit symbols are still generated, and the hs_add_root() function still exists (but does nothing), for backwards compatibility.
