Poor DPH and its vectoriser have long been languishing; sadly it seems there is
little chance that the effort will be rekindled. Every few years we discuss
what to do with this mass of code and at least once we have agreed that it
should be archived on a branch and removed from `master`. Here we do just that,
eliminating heaps of dead code in the process.
Here we drop the ParallelArrays extension, the vectoriser, and the `vector` and
`primitive` submodules.

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`

While investigating #12545, I discovered several places in the code
that performed length-checks like so:
```
length ts == 4
```
This is not ideal, since the length of `ts` could be much longer than 4,
and we'd be doing way more work than necessary! There are already a slew
of helper functions in `Util` such as `lengthIs` that are designed to do
this efficiently, so I found every place where they ought to be used and
did just that. I also defined a couple more utility functions for list
length that were common patterns (e.g., `ltLength`).

Previously, `mkInlineUnfolding` took a `Maybe` argument indicating
whether the caller requested a specific arity. This was not
self-documenting at call sites. Now we distinguish between
`mkInlineUnfolding` and `mkInlineUnfoldingWithArity`.

With TypeInType Richard combined ForAllTy and FunTy, but that was often
awkward, and yielded little benefit becuase in practice the two were
always treated separately. This patch re-introduces FunTy. Specfically
* New type
data TyVarBinder = TvBndr TyVar VisibilityFlag
This /always/ has a TyVar it. In many places that's just what
what we want, so there are /lots/ of TyBinder -> TyVarBinder changes
* TyBinder still exists:
data TyBinder = Named TyVarBinder | Anon Type
* data Type = ForAllTy TyVarBinder Type
| FunTy Type Type
| ....
There are a LOT of knock-on changes, but they are all routine.
The Haddock submodule needs to be updated too

This implements the ideas originally put forward in
"System FC with Explicit Kind Equality" (ICFP'13).
There are several noteworthy changes with this patch:
* We now have casts in types. These change the kind
of a type. See new constructor `CastTy`.
* All types and all constructors can be promoted.
This includes GADT constructors. GADT pattern matches
take place in type family equations. In Core,
types can now be applied to coercions via the
`CoercionTy` constructor.
* Coercions can now be heterogeneous, relating types
of different kinds. A coercion proving `t1 :: k1 ~ t2 :: k2`
proves both that `t1` and `t2` are the same and also that
`k1` and `k2` are the same.
* The `Coercion` type has been significantly enhanced.
The documentation in `docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf` reflects
the new reality.
* The type of `*` is now `*`. No more `BOX`.
* Users can write explicit kind variables in their code,
anywhere they can write type variables. For backward compatibility,
automatic inference of kind-variable binding is still permitted.
* The new extension `TypeInType` turns on the new user-facing
features.
* Type families and synonyms are now promoted to kinds. This causes
trouble with parsing `*`, leading to the somewhat awkward new
`HsAppsTy` constructor for `HsType`. This is dispatched with in
the renamer, where the kind `*` can be told apart from a
type-level multiplication operator. Without `-XTypeInType` the
old behavior persists. With `-XTypeInType`, you need to import
`Data.Kind` to get `*`, also known as `Type`.
* The kind-checking algorithms in TcHsType have been significantly
rewritten to allow for enhanced kinds.
* The new features are still quite experimental and may be in flux.
* TODO: Several open tickets: #11195, #11196, #11197, #11198, #11203.
* TODO: Update user manual.
Tickets addressed: #9017, #9173, #7961, #10524, #8566, #11142.

Make tuple constraints be handled by a perfectly ordinary
type class, with the component constraints being the
superclasses:
class (c1, c2) => (c2, c2)
This change was provoked by
#10359 inability to re-use a given tuple
constraint as a whole
#9858 confusion between term tuples
and constraint tuples
but it's generally a very nice simplification. We get rid of
- In Type, the TuplePred constructor of PredTree,
and all the code that dealt with TuplePreds
- In TcEvidence, the constructors EvTupleMk, EvTupleSel
See Note [How tuples work] in TysWiredIn.
Of course, nothing is ever entirely simple. This one
proved quite fiddly.
- I did quite a bit of renaming, which makes this patch
touch a lot of modules. In partiuclar tupleCon -> tupleDataCon.
- I made constraint tuples known-key rather than wired-in.
This is different to boxed/unboxed tuples, but it proved
awkward to have all the superclass selectors wired-in.
Easier just to use the standard mechanims.
- While I was fiddling with known-key names, I split the TH Name
definitions out of DsMeta into a new module THNames. That meant
that the known-key names can all be gathered in PrelInfo, without
causing module loops.
- I found that the parser was parsing an import item like
T( .. )
as a *data constructor* T, and then using setRdrNameSpace to
fix it. Stupid! So I changed the parser to parse a *type
constructor* T, which means less use of setRdrNameSpace.
I also improved setRdrNameSpace to behave better on Exact Names.
Largely on priciple; I don't think it matters a lot.
- When compiling a data type declaration for a wired-in thing like
tuples (,), or lists, we don't really need to look at the
declaration. We have the wired-in thing! And not doing so avoids
having to line up the uniques for data constructor workers etc.
See Note [Declarations for wired-in things]
- I found that FunDeps.oclose wasn't taking superclasses into
account; easily fixed.
- Some error message refactoring for invalid constraints in TcValidity
- Haddock needs to absorb the change too; so there is a submodule update

Whether to re-export the `<$>` non-method operator from `Prelude` wasn't
explicitly covered in the original AMP proposal[1], but it turns out that
not doing so forces most code that makes use of applicatives to import
`Data.Functor` or `Control.Applicative` just to get that operator into
scope. To this end, it was proposed to add `<$>` to Prelude as well[2].
The down-side is that this increases the amount of redundant-import
warnings triggered, as well as the relatively minor issue of stealing
the `<$>` operator from the default namespace for good (although at this
point `<$>` is supposed to be ubiquitous anyway due to `Applicative`
being implicitly required into the next Haskell Report)

In some cases, the layout of the LANGUAGE/OPTIONS_GHC lines has been
reorganized, while following the convention, to
- place `{-# LANGUAGE #-}` pragmas at the top of the source file, before
any `{-# OPTIONS_GHC #-}`-lines.
- Moreover, if the list of language extensions fit into a single
`{-# LANGUAGE ... -#}`-line (shorter than 80 characters), keep it on one
line. Otherwise split into `{-# LANGUAGE ... -#}`-lines for each
individual language extension. In both cases, try to keep the
enumeration alphabetically ordered.
(The latter layout is preferable as it's more diff-friendly)
While at it, this also replaces obsolete `{-# OPTIONS ... #-}` pragma
occurences by `{-# OPTIONS_GHC ... #-}` pragmas.

Roles are a solution to the GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving type-safety
problem.
Roles were first described in the "Generative type abstraction" paper,
by Stephanie Weirich, Dimitrios Vytiniotis, Simon PJ, and Steve Zdancewic.
The implementation is a little different than that paper. For a quick
primer, check out Note [Roles] in Coercion. Also see
http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Roles
and
http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/RolesImplementation
For a more formal treatment, check out docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf.
This fixes Trac #1496, #4846, #7148.

This commit changes the syntax and story around overlapping type
family instances. Before, we had "unbranched" instances and
"branched" instances. Now, we have closed type families and
open ones.
The behavior of open families is completely unchanged. In particular,
coincident overlap of open type family instances still works, despite
emails to the contrary.
A closed type family is declared like this:
> type family F a where
> F Int = Bool
> F a = Char
The equations are tried in order, from top to bottom, subject to
certain constraints, as described in the user manual. It is not
allowed to declare an instance of a closed family.

An ordered, overlapping type family instance is introduced by 'type
instance
where', followed by equations. See the new section in the user manual
(7.7.2.2) for details. The canonical example is Boolean equality at the
type
level:
type family Equals (a :: k) (b :: k) :: Bool
type instance where
Equals a a = True
Equals a b = False
A branched family instance, such as this one, checks its equations in
order
and applies only the first the matches. As explained in the note
[Instance
checking within groups] in FamInstEnv.lhs, we must be careful not to
simplify,
say, (Equals Int b) to False, because b might later unify with Int.
This commit includes all of the commits on the overlapping-tyfams
branch. SPJ
requested that I combine all my commits over the past several months
into one
monolithic commit. The following GHC repos are affected: ghc, testsuite,
utils/haddock, libraries/template-haskell, and libraries/dph.
Here are some details for the interested:
- The definition of CoAxiom has been moved from TyCon.lhs to a
new file CoAxiom.lhs. I made this decision because of the
number of definitions necessary to support BranchList.
- BranchList is a GADT whose type tracks whether it is a
singleton list or not-necessarily-a-singleton-list. The reason
I introduced this type is to increase static checking of places
where GHC code assumes that a FamInst or CoAxiom is indeed a
singleton. This assumption takes place roughly 10 times
throughout the code. I was worried that a future change to GHC
would invalidate the assumption, and GHC might subtly fail to
do the right thing. By explicitly labeling CoAxioms and
FamInsts as being Unbranched (singleton) or
Branched (not-necessarily-singleton), we make this assumption
explicit and checkable. Furthermore, to enforce the accuracy of
this label, the list of branches of a CoAxiom or FamInst is
stored using a BranchList, whose constructors constrain its
type index appropriately.
I think that the decision to use BranchList is probably the most
controversial decision I made from a code design point of view.
Although I provide conversions to/from ordinary lists, it is more
efficient to use the brList... functions provided in CoAxiom than
always to convert. The use of these functions does not wander far
from the core CoAxiom/FamInst logic.
BranchLists are motivated and explained in the note [Branched axioms] in
CoAxiom.lhs.
- The CoAxiom type has changed significantly. You can see the new
type in CoAxiom.lhs. It uses a CoAxBranch type to track
branches of the CoAxiom. Correspondingly various functions
producing and consuming CoAxioms had to change, including the
binary layout of interface files.
- To get branched axioms to work correctly, it is important to have a
notion
of type "apartness": two types are apart if they cannot unify, and no
substitution of variables can ever get them to unify, even after type
family
simplification. (This is different than the normal failure to unify
because
of the type family bit.) This notion in encoded in tcApartTys, in
Unify.lhs.
Because apartness is finer-grained than unification, the tcUnifyTys
now
calls tcApartTys.
- CoreLinting axioms has been updated, both to reflect the new
form of CoAxiom and to enforce the apartness rules of branch
application. The formalization of the new rules is in
docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf.
- The FamInst type (in types/FamInstEnv.lhs) has changed
significantly, paralleling the changes to CoAxiom. Of course,
this forced minor changes in many files.
- There are several new Notes in FamInstEnv.lhs, including one
discussing confluent overlap and why we're not doing it.
- lookupFamInstEnv, lookupFamInstEnvConflicts, and
lookup_fam_inst_env' (the function that actually does the work)
have all been more-or-less completely rewritten. There is a
Note [lookup_fam_inst_env' implementation] describing the
implementation. One of the changes that affects other files is
to change the type of matches from a pair of (FamInst, [Type])
to a new datatype (which now includes the index of the matching
branch). This seemed a better design.
- The TySynInstD constructor in Template Haskell was updated to
use the new datatype TySynEqn. I also bumped the TH version
number, requiring changes to DPH cabal files. (That's why the
DPH repo has an overlapping-tyfams branch.)
- As SPJ requested, I refactored some of the code in HsDecls:
* splitting up TyDecl into SynDecl and DataDecl, correspondingly
changing HsTyDefn to HsDataDefn (with only one constructor)
* splitting FamInstD into TyFamInstD and DataFamInstD and
splitting FamInstDecl into DataFamInstDecl and TyFamInstDecl
* making the ClsInstD take a ClsInstDecl, for parallelism with
InstDecl's other constructors
* changing constructor TyFamily into FamDecl
* creating a FamilyDecl type that stores the details for a family
declaration; this is useful because FamilyDecls can appear in classes
but
other decls cannot
* restricting the associated types and associated type defaults for a
* class
to be the new, more restrictive types
* splitting cid_fam_insts into cid_tyfam_insts and cid_datafam_insts,
according to the new types
* perhaps one or two more that I'm overlooking
None of these changes has far-reaching implications.
- The user manual, section 7.7.2.2, is updated to describe the new type
family
instances.

This patch should have no user-visible effect. It implements a
significant internal refactoring of the way that FC axioms are
handled. The ultimate goal is to put us in a position to implement
"pattern-matching axioms". But the changes here are only does
refactoring; there is no change in functionality.
Specifically:
* We now treat data/type family instance declarations very,
very similarly to types class instance declarations:
- Renamed InstEnv.Instance as InstEnv.ClsInst, for symmetry with
FamInstEnv.FamInst. This change does affect the GHC API, but
for the better I think.
- Previously, each family type/data instance declaration gave rise
to a *TyCon*; typechecking a type/data instance decl produced
that TyCon. Now, each type/data instance gives rise to
a *FamInst*, by direct analogy with each class instance
declaration giving rise to a ClsInst.
- Just as each ClsInst contains its evidence, a DFunId, so each FamInst
contains its evidence, a CoAxiom. See Note [FamInsts and CoAxioms]
in FamInstEnv. The CoAxiom is a System-FC thing, and can relate any
two types, whereas the FamInst relates directly to the Haskell source
language construct, and always has a function (F tys) on the LHS.
- Just as a DFunId has its own declaration in an interface file, so now
do CoAxioms (see IfaceSyn.IfaceAxiom).
These changes give rise to almost all the refactoring.
* We used to have a hack whereby a type family instance produced a dummy
type synonym, thus
type instance F Int = Bool -> Bool
translated to
axiom FInt :: F Int ~ R:FInt
type R:FInt = Bool -> Bool
This was always a hack, and now it's gone. Instead the type instance
declaration produces a FamInst, whose axiom has kind
axiom FInt :: F Int ~ Bool -> Bool
just as you'd expect.
* Newtypes are done just as before; they generate a CoAxiom. These
CoAxioms are "implicit" (do not generate an IfaceAxiom declaration),
unlike the ones coming from family instance declarations. See
Note [Implicit axioms] in TyCon
On the whole the code gets significantly nicer. There were consequential
tidy-ups in the vectoriser, but I think I got them right.

- Fixed some documentation

Basically as documented in http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/KindFact,
this patch adds a new kind Constraint such that:
Show :: * -> Constraint
(?x::Int) :: Constraint
(Int ~ a) :: Constraint
And you can write *any* type with kind Constraint to the left of (=>):
even if that type is a type synonym, type variable, indexed type or so on.
The following (somewhat related) changes are also made:
1. We now box equality evidence. This is required because we want
to give (Int ~ a) the *lifted* kind Constraint
2. For similar reasons, implicit parameters can now only be of
a lifted kind. (?x::Int#) => ty is now ruled out
3. Implicit parameter constraints are now allowed in superclasses
and instance contexts (this just falls out as OK with the new
constraint solver)
Internally the following major changes were made:
1. There is now no PredTy in the Type data type. Instead
GHC checks the kind of a type to figure out if it is a predicate
2. There is now no AClass TyThing: we represent classes as TyThings
just as a ATyCon (classes had TyCons anyway)
3. What used to be (~) is now pretty-printed as (~#). The box
constructor EqBox :: (a ~# b) -> (a ~ b)
4. The type LCoercion is used internally in the constraint solver
and type checker to represent coercions with free variables
of type (a ~ b) rather than (a ~# b)

We introduced silent superclass parameters as a way to avoid
superclass loops, but we now solve that problem a different
way ("derived" superclass constraints carry no evidence). So
they aren't needed any more.
Apart from being a needless complication, they broke DoCon.
Admittedly in a very obscure way, but still the result is
hard to explain. To see the details see Trac #5051, with
test case typecheck/should_compile/T5051. (The test is
nice and small!)

See the paper "Practical aspects of evidence based compilation in System FC"
* Coercion becomes a data type, distinct from Type
* Coercions become value-level things, rather than type-level things,
(although the value is zero bits wide, like the State token)
A consequence is that a coerion abstraction increases the arity by 1
(just like a dictionary abstraction)
* There is a new constructor in CoreExpr, namely Coercion, to inject
coercions into terms

This is just a guess at how this should work.
