We no longer require LiberalTypeSynonyms to use 'forall' or an unboxed
tuple in a synonym.
I also removed that kind checking before expanding synonyms "could be changed".
This was true when type synonyms were thought of macros, but with
the extensions such as SAKS or matchability I don't see it changing.

Don't instantiate type variables for :type in
`GHC.Tc.Gen.App.tcInstFun`, to avoid inconsistently instantianting
`r1` but not `r2` in the type
forall {r1} (a :: TYPE r1) {r2} (b :: TYPE r2). ...
This fixes #21088.
This patch also changes the primop pretty-printer to ensure
that we put all the inferred type variables first. For example,
the type of reallyUnsafePtrEquality# is now
forall {l :: Levity} {k :: Levity}
(a :: TYPE (BoxedRep l))
(b :: TYPE (BoxedRep k)).
a -> b -> Int#
This means we avoid running into issue #21088 entirely with
the types of primops. Users can still write a type signature where
the inferred type variables don't come first, however.
This change to primops had a knock-on consequence, revealing that
we were sometimes performing eta reduction on keepAlive#.
This patch updates tryEtaReduce to avoid eta reducing functions
with no binding, bringing it in line with tryEtaReducePrep,
and thus fixing #21090.

This adds a number of changes to ticky-ticky profiling.
When an executable is profiled with IPE profiling it's now possible to
associate id-related ticky counters to their source location.
This works by emitting the info table address as part of the counter
which can be looked up in the IPE table.
Add a `-ticky-ap-thunk` flag. This flag prevents the use of some standard thunks
which are precompiled into the RTS. This means reduced cache locality
and increased code size. But it allows better attribution of execution
cost to specific source locations instead of simple attributing it to
the standard thunk.
ticky-ticky now uses the `arg` field to emit additional information
about counters in json format. When ticky-ticky is used in combination
with the eventlog eventlog2html can be used to generate a html table
from the eventlog similar to the old text output for ticky-ticky.

Tag inference included a way to collect stats about avoided tag-checks.
This was dony by emitting "dummy" ticky entries with counts corresponding
to predicted/unpredicated tag checks.
This behaviour for ticky is now gated behind -fticky-tag-checks.
I also documented ticky-LNE in the process.

This patch skips performing type normalisation when we haven't
fully instantiated the type. That is, in tcRnExpr
(used only for :type in GHCi), skip normalisation if
the result type responds True to isSigmaTy.

Previously, GHC had three flavours of constraint:
Wanted, Given, and Derived. This removes Derived constraints.
Though serving a number of purposes, the most important role
of Derived constraints was to enable better error messages.
This job has been taken over by the new RewriterSets, as explained
in Note [Wanteds rewrite wanteds] in GHC.Tc.Types.Constraint.
Other knock-on effects:
- Various new Notes as I learned about under-described bits of GHC
- A reshuffling around the AST for implicit-parameter bindings,
with better integration with TTG.
- Various improvements around fundeps. These were caused by the
fact that, previously, fundep constraints were all Derived,
and Derived constraints would get dropped. Thus, an unsolved
Derived didn't stop compilation. Without Derived, this is no
longer possible, and so we have to be considerably more careful
around fundeps.
- A nice little refactoring in GHC.Tc.Errors to center the work
on a new datatype called ErrorItem. Constraints are converted
into ErrorItems at the start of processing, and this allows for
a little preprocessing before the main classification.
- This commit also cleans up the behavior in generalisation around
functional dependencies. Now, if a variable is determined by
functional dependencies, it will not be quantified. This change
is user facing, but it should trim down GHC's strange behavior
around fundeps.
- Previously, reportWanteds did quite a bit of work, even on an empty
WantedConstraints. This commit adds a fast path.
- Now, GHC will unconditionally re-simplify constraints during
quantification. See Note [Unconditionally resimplify constraints when
quantifying], in GHC.Tc.Solver.

`hscCompileCoreExprHook` is changed to return a list of `Module`s required
by a splice. These modules are accumulated in the TcGblEnv (tcg_th_needed_mods).
Dependencies on the object files of these modules are recording in the
interface.
The data structures in `LoaderState` are replaced with more efficient versions
to keep track of all the information required. The
MultiLayerModulesTH_Make allocations increase slightly but runtime is
faster.

This does three major things:
* Enforce the invariant that all strict fields must contain tagged
pointers.
* Try to predict the tag on bindings in order to omit tag checks.
* Allows functions to pass arguments unlifted (call-by-value).
The former is "simply" achieved by wrapping any constructor allocations with
a case which will evaluate the respective strict bindings.
The prediction is done by a new data flow analysis based on the STG
representation of a program. This also helps us to avoid generating
redudant cases for the above invariant.
StrictWorkers are created by W/W directly and SpecConstr indirectly.
See the Note [Strict Worker Ids]
Other minor changes:
* Add StgUtil module containing a few functions needed by, but
not specific to the tag analysis.

This patch makes the following types levity-polymorphic in their
last argument:
- Array# a, SmallArray# a, Weak# b, StablePtr# a, StableName# a
- MutableArray# s a, SmallMutableArray# s a,
MutVar# s a, TVar# s a, MVar# s a, IOPort# s a
The corresponding primops are also made levity-polymorphic, e.g.
`newArray#`, `readArray#`, `writeMutVar#`, `writeIOPort#`, etc.
Additionally, exception handling functions such as `catch#`, `raise#`,
`maskAsyncExceptions#`,... are made levity/representation-polymorphic.
Now that Array# and MutableArray# also work with unlifted types,
we can simply re-define ArrayArray# and MutableArrayArray# in terms
of them. This means that ArrayArray# and MutableArrayArray# are no
longer primitive types, but simply unlifted newtypes around Array# and
MutableArrayArray#.
This completes the implementation of the Pointer Rep proposal

This gives users the choice to enable __compact_unwind sections
when linking. These were previously hardcoded to be removed.
This can be used to solved the problem "C++ does not catch
exceptions when used with Haskell-main and linked by ghc",
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/11829
It does not change the default behavior, because I can not
estimate the impact this would have.
When Apple first introduced the compact unwind ABI, a number of
open source projects have taken the easy route of disabling it,
avoiding errors or even just warnings shortly after its
introduction.
Since then, about a decade has passed, so it seems quite possible
that Apple itself, and presumably many programs with it, have
successfully switched to the new format, to the point where the
old __eh_frame section support is in disrepair. Perhaps we should
get along with the program, but for now we can test the waters
with this flag, and use it to fix packages that need it.

The `GHC.Tc.Plugin.newWanted` function takes a `CtLoc` as an argument,
but it used to discard the location information, keeping only
the `CtOrigin`. It would then retrieve the source location from the
`TcM` environment using `getCtLocM`.
This patch changes this so that `GHC.Tc.Plugin.newWanted` passes on
the full `CtLoc`. This means that authors of type-checking plugins
no longer need to manually set the `CtLoc` environment in the `TcM`
monad if they want to create a new Wanted constraint with the given
`CtLoc` (in particular, for setting the `SrcSpan` of an emitted
constraint). This makes the `newWanted` function consistent with
`newGiven`, which always used the full `CtLoc` instead of using
the environment.

The pretty-printing of partially applied unboxed sums was incorrect,
as we incorrectly dropped the first half of the arguments, even
for a partial application such as
(# | #) @IntRep @DoubleRep Int#
which lead to the nonsensical (# DoubleRep | Int# #).
This patch also allows users to write unboxed sum type constructors

Multiple home units allows you to load different packages which may depend on
each other into one GHC session. This will allow both GHCi and HLS to support
multi component projects more naturally.
Public Interface
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In order to specify multiple units, the -unit @⟨filename⟩ flag
is given multiple times with a response file containing the arguments for each unit.
The response file contains a newline separated list of arguments.
```
ghc -unit @unitLibCore -unit @unitLib
```
where the `unitLibCore` response file contains the normal arguments that cabal would pass to `--make` mode.
```
-this-unit-id lib-core-0.1.0.0
-i
-isrc
LibCore.Utils
LibCore.Types
```
The response file for lib, can specify a dependency on lib-core, so then modules in lib can use modules from lib-core.
```
-this-unit-id lib-0.1.0.0
-package-id lib-core-0.1.0.0
-i
-isrc
Lib.Parse
Lib.Render
```
Then when the compiler starts in --make mode it will compile both units lib and lib-core.
There is also very basic support for multiple home units in GHCi, at the
moment you can start a GHCi session with multiple units but only the
:reload is supported. Most commands in GHCi assume a single home unit,
and so it is additional work to work out how to modify the interface to
support multiple loaded home units.
Options used when working with Multiple Home Units
There are a few extra flags which have been introduced specifically for
working with multiple home units. The flags allow a home unit to pretend
it’s more like an installed package, for example, specifying the package
name, module visibility and reexported modules.
-working-dir ⟨dir⟩
It is common to assume that a package is compiled in the directory
where its cabal file resides. Thus, all paths used in the compiler
are assumed to be relative to this directory. When there are
multiple home units the compiler is often not operating in the
standard directory and instead where the cabal.project file is
located. In this case the -working-dir option can be passed which
specifies the path from the current directory to the directory the
unit assumes to be it’s root, normally the directory which contains
the cabal file.
When the flag is passed, any relative paths used by the compiler are
offset by the working directory. Notably this includes -i and
-I⟨dir⟩ flags.
-this-package-name ⟨name⟩
This flag papers over the awkward interaction of the PackageImports
and multiple home units. When using PackageImports you can specify
the name of the package in an import to disambiguate between modules
which appear in multiple packages with the same name.
This flag allows a home unit to be given a package name so that you
can also disambiguate between multiple home units which provide
modules with the same name.
-hidden-module ⟨module name⟩
This flag can be supplied multiple times in order to specify which
modules in a home unit should not be visible outside of the unit it
belongs to.
The main use of this flag is to be able to recreate the difference
between an exposed and hidden module for installed packages.
-reexported-module ⟨module name⟩
This flag can be supplied multiple times in order to specify which
modules are not defined in a unit but should be reexported. The
effect is that other units will see this module as if it was defined
in this unit.
The use of this flag is to be able to replicate the reexported
modules feature of packages with multiple home units.
Offsetting Paths in Template Haskell splices
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When using Template Haskell to embed files into your program,
traditionally the paths have been interpreted relative to the directory
where the .cabal file resides. This causes problems for multiple home
units as we are compiling many different libraries at once which have
.cabal files in different directories.
For this purpose we have introduced a way to query the value of the
-working-dir flag to the Template Haskell API. By using this function we
can implement a makeRelativeToProject function which offsets a path
which is relative to the original project root by the value of
-working-dir.
```
import Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax ( makeRelativeToProject )
foo = $(makeRelativeToProject "./relative/path" >>= embedFile)
```
> If you write a relative path in a Template Haskell splice you should use the makeRelativeToProject function so that your library works correctly with multiple home units.
A similar function already exists in the file-embed library. The
function in template-haskell implements this function in a more robust
manner by honouring the -working-dir flag rather than searching the file
system.
Closure Property for Home Units
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For tools or libraries using the API there is one very important closure
property which must be adhered to:
> Any dependency which is not a home unit must not (transitively) depend
on a home unit.
For example, if you have three packages p, q and r, then if p depends on
q which depends on r then it is illegal to load both p and r as home
units but not q, because q is a dependency of the home unit p which
depends on another home unit r.
If you are using GHC by the command line then this property is checked,
but if you are using the API then you need to check this property
yourself. If you get it wrong you will probably get some very confusing
errors about overlapping instances.
Limitations of Multiple Home Units
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are a few limitations of the initial implementation which will be smoothed out on user demand.
* Package thinning/renaming syntax is not supported
* More complicated reexports/renaming are not yet supported.
* It’s more common to run into existing linker bugs when loading a
large number of packages in a session (for example #20674, #20689)
* Backpack is not yet supported when using multiple home units.
* Dependency chasing can be quite slow with a large number of
modules and packages.
* Loading wired-in packages as home units is currently not supported
(this only really affects GHC developers attempting to load
template-haskell).
* Barely any normal GHCi features are supported, it would be good to
support enough for ghcid to work correctly.
Despite these limitations, the implementation works already for nearly
all packages. It has been testing on large dependency closures,
including the whole of head.hackage which is a total of 4784 modules
from 452 packages.
Internal Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The biggest change is that the HomePackageTable is replaced with the
HomeUnitGraph. The HomeUnitGraph is a map from UnitId to HomeUnitEnv,
which contains information specific to each home unit.
* The HomeUnitEnv contains:
- A unit state, each home unit can have different package db flags
- A set of dynflags, each home unit can have different flags
- A HomePackageTable
* LinkNode: A new node type is added to the ModuleGraph, this is used to
place the linking step into the build plan so linking can proceed in
parralel with other packages being built.
* New invariant: Dependencies of a ModuleGraphNode can be completely
determined by looking at the value of the node. In order to achieve
this, downsweep now performs a more complete job of downsweeping and
then the dependenices are recorded forever in the node rather than
being computed again from the ModSummary.
* Some transitive module calculations are rewritten to use the
ModuleGraph which is more efficient.
* There is always an active home unit, which simplifies modifying a lot
of the existing API code which is unit agnostic (for example, in the
driver).
The road may be bumpy for a little while after this change but the
basics are well-tested.
One small metric increase, which we accept and also submodule update to
haddock which removes ExtendedModSummary.

This adds a new mode, `--merge-objs`, which can be used to produce

Cabal and instead use this mode.

This flag was previously called `--mk-dll`. It was renamed to `-shared`

updated to match.

Names defined earier but shadowed need to be kept around, e.g. for type
signatures:
```
ghci> data T = T
ghci> let t = T
ghci> data T = T
ghci> :t t
t :: Ghci1.T
```
and indeed they can be used:
```
ghci> let t2 = Ghci1.T :: Ghci1.T
ghci> :t t2
t2 :: Ghci1.T
```
However, previously this did not happen for ids (non-types), although they
are still around under the qualified name internally:

ghci> let t = "other t"
ghci> t'
<interactive>:8:1: error:
• Variable not in scope: t'
• Perhaps you meant one of these:
‘Ghci2.t’ (imported from Ghci2), ‘t’ (line 7), ‘t2’ (line 5)
ghci> Ghci2.t
<interactive>:9:1: error:
• GHC internal error: ‘Ghci2.t’ is not in scope during type checking, but it passed the renamer
tcl_env of environment: []
• In the expression: Ghci2.t
In an equation for ‘it’: it = Ghci2.t
```
This fixes the problem by simply removing the code that tries to remove
shadowed ids from the environment. Now you can refer to shadowed ids using
`Ghci2.t`, just like you can do for data and type constructors. This
simplifies the code, makes terms and types more similar, and also
fixes #20455.
Now all names ever defined in GHCi are in `ic_tythings`, which is printed by
`:show bindings`. But for that commands, it seems to be more ergonomic
to only list those bindings that are not shadowed. Or, even if it is not
more ergonomic, it’s the current behavour. So let's restore that by filtering
in `icInScopeTTs`.
Of course a single `TyThing` can be associated with many names. We keep
it it in the bindings if _any_ of its names are still visible
unqualifiedly. It's a judgement call.
This commit also turns a rather old comment into a test files.
The comment is is rather stale and things are better explained
elsewhere. Fixes #925.
Two test cases are regressing:
T14052(ghci) ghc/alloc 2749444288.0 12192109912.0 +343.4% BAD
T14052Type(ghci) ghc/alloc 7365784616.0 10767078344.0 +46.2% BAD
This is not unexpected; the `ic_tythings list grows` a lot more if we
don’t remove shadowed Ids. I tried to alleviate it a bit with earlier
MRs, but couldn’t make up for it completely.
Metric Increase:
